Mediation Ruled Out
The Syrian government also
announced 1t had ruled out
mediation. with Turkey on the
border crisis because this might
hamper Syria's case before the
United Nations.
An ofiicial statement last
night-attempting to clarity
confusion over a reported mt
diation offer by Saudi Arabia's
King Saud-Said Syria is deter
mined to follow up its COM
plant in the U. N. General As
sembly and rule out everything
that might restrict the United
Nations in handling this case.
Turkish Ambassador Hay

the State Department today
that his nation prefers to
seek a settlement of dispute
with Syria through King
Saud's mediation, rather than
through the United Nations.
He said. however. that Tur-
key will argue its case before
the U. N. If Syria insists.
(Mr. Cork had a l-hour

lined an exchange of messages

President Shukri Kuwatly and

Of the situation on the syrian
border, the statement said.
1T should be noted" the
statement continued, that
no reference whatsoever was
made that the Syrian envoy
would be asked to meet the
Turkish envoy for discussions.
On the contrary his mission
would be confined to presenting
to Saud the required informa-
ton concerning the Turkish
Syrian border situation"
Replies from Mr.. Kuwatly
and Acting Foreign Minister
Khalil Kallas informed King
Saud they felt he knew every
thing about the situation and
there was 10 need to send an
envoy TO Saudi Arabia. the
statement said.
1T is to be noted that in
all these exchanges there were
no references to the worlds
'delega on mission. 'negotia-
ton or Mediation"
Misuh terstanding Seen
The statement said the sum-
mary of the exchanges makes it
plain that the Saudi side went
to the extent Of interpreting
Saud's message as an offer of
mediation and regarding Ku-
watly's reply as an acceptance
of this offer.
THE Syrian side absolutely
did not understand the Kings
message as a mediation offer
but merely as an expression Of
his noble sentiments toward
Syria and ArabiSm and his pre-
paredness to spare no effort to
avoid the threat Of a cataS-
trophe." the statement added.
The idea of mediation never
entered Syria's mind. the state
ment continued. because "the

Mr.. Davidson testified that

categorically that even In cases

evidence against police officers
bringing them before a trial
board would cause police mo-

That Is q bad philosophy"
the NAACP chief asserted.
He also declared that Chef

ported TO the police chief that
a police department should
not depend on race discrim-

was taking the position that

dent"
The Secretary said 'the Com
muniSt world is held together

held together by understand
ing"
Like Mr.. Macmillan. he tried
TO reassure other Western ma
tons that the two powers are

seek to safeguard the interest
Of all free nations.
Britons Greet Visitor
Among those greeting Mr..
Macmillan were British For
eign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd
and British Ambassador to the

Asks Pay Rise
For Scientists
Eisenhower Endorses
Proposals Affecting
$4,000 U. S. Aides
BY JOSEPH YOUNG

The White House today re-
leased a report Of a special
Government committee urging
greater pay for the $4,000 sci
entists and engineers in the
Federal service.
White House officials said the
report had the general indorse-
ment Of President Eisenhower
although the proposals requir-
ing legislative action are still
being studied pending action
when Congress returns in JAM
uary.
The Committee on Scientists
and Engineers Tor Federal Gov
eminent Programs was headed
by Civil Service Commission
Chairman Harris Ellsworth and
included Defense MobilizeI
Gordon Gray. Budget Director
Percival Brundage, Atomic En-
ergy Commissioner DR.. w. F.
Libby and Assistant Secretary
Of Defense for Manpower VIII
liam Francis.
Government Failure Cited
The group called critical
the Governments failure be-
cause of lower salaries and
other conditions to compete
with industry in attracting and
retaining scientists and en-
gineers.
The committee said the aver
age Government entrance rate
for scientists and engineers Is
at least $1,000 less than in
dustry. In many cases the
Government pay for these jobs
lags at least $4,000 behind
industry. the group declared.
Although the study was
started last year. administra-
ton officials acknowledged that
recent events. including Rus
sia's launching of the space
satellite. gave the recommen-
dations a special urgency.
Legislation Required
Most of the pay proposals
made by the group would re-
auire legislation by Congress.
Official White House indorse-
ment of the recommendations
was withheld pending the re-
port of the Presidents Sub
Cabinet Committee dealing with
the entire Federal pay situa-
ton. This report is due to be
made to Mr.. Eisenhower by the
end Of the year.
However. Mr.. Eisenhower
gave the scientist and engi-
neer pay report his general
Endorsement by sending letters
to key Government officials
asking them to implement the
proposals in the form Of pro-
posed legislation and execu-
tive action.
The committee proposed:
/. legislation be enacted TO
give the Civil Service Commits
sion authority TO establish
higher pay for engineering and
scientific jobs in any area where
it is found that higher in
dustry pay makes difficult the
recruitment and retention Of
this type Of employees.
Appropriate Increases
The csc would establish
higher minimum rates and
make appropriate increases in
step-rates for the appropriate
class or classes or groups Of
positions in each area or loca-
ton concerned.

acted to remove the number
