Another Acc member, DR.

Mr.. Northway said he and two

this would mean that a con-

Plot 10 Murder
.Saud Reported

NEW YORK. May 4 R.-Th,
New York Times said today Egyp'
has been linked with a plot t.
assassinate King Saud Of Saud
Arabia.
A Times dispatch from Beirut
Lebanon. said a reliable source
with Saudi connections had con.
firmed. reports in the Lebanese
press that terrorist cells under
Egyptian direction were discov-
cred last month in Saudi Arabia
The story said the Lebanese
press did not mention King Saud
saying only that "assassinations'
were being planned.
Members Of the ring were
mostly former Palestinians. but
there were also Saudi Arabians
involved" the Times dispatch
said. Full details are not YET
available. but on April 81 the
Saudi security police made raids
and arrested an unspecified num-
Der Of persons. Automatic weap-
ons. grenades and explosives
were found"
The account said one Of the
purposes Of Syrian President
Shukri Kuwatly's visit to Saudi
Arabia during the Jordanian
crisis last week repeatedly was tc
carry Egyptian President Nasser's
assurances that he had no knowl-
edge Of the plot.
The dispatch said wholesale
deportations Of Egyptians and
Palestinians have been going on
since the raids. apparently be-
cause the King preferred such
action to prosecutions which
would embitter relations between
the Arab countries.

On Haiti Rule

PORT Az PRINCE. Haiti, May
4 R.-Army Chief Gen. Leon
Cantave has accepted the opin-
ion Of five Of Haiti's seven Su-
preme Court judges that remain
ing members Of the executive
council are qualified to govern
the country pending elections.
Gen. Cantave thus placed the
army at the disposal Of the coun-
Gil yesterday. ending 10 days of
uncertainty as to whether this
Caribbean Negro republic had a
government.
The council. nominated by
leading candidates for president,
has been attempting to govern
after the overturn Of two pro-

ing public funds were withdrawn,

OF the supreme court that the

mitted they have no jurisdiction

gravity Of the situation" Gen
Cantave's acceptance Of the
opinion appeared TO settle the

While the talks were going on,
a fresh message arrived for Mr..
Adenauer from Soviet Ambassa-
dor Andrei Smirnov and was
taken into the chancellor's ONCE.
A Foreign Once spokesman said
Mr.. Adenauer and Dulles dis
cussed the Soviet note.
The spokesman declined to
discuss the contents of the note,
but it was believed to deal with
the Soviet German exchange
over atomic weapons.
Russia told Mr.. Adenauer in
a note last month that Germany
might become "a vertitable
graveyard" If it.. persisted in
arming with atomic weapons.
Mr.. Adenauer asked Mr..
Smirnov to inform his govern
ment that West Germany has
no atomic weapons and has not
asked for any. Later Adenauer
sent another note asking why
the Soviets had ignored his
statement.
Present with Mr.. Dulles at
today's talks was the United

David K. E. Bruce. On the Ger
man side were Foreign Minister
Heinrich Won Brentano and the
