Direct Talks Out
President Nasser's govern

Britain and France on a canal
settlement on the grounds that
the two countries had upset all
previous arrangements by their
invasion of Egypt.
AT first American officials be-
lieved the Egyptians would back
down from this stand and agree
to pick up talks in New York
with the British and French
where they left off last october.
But the Egyptians refused to
change their minds, making the
compromise talks necessary.

Mr.. HammarskJold is under

talks started as quickly as pos

The Soviet Union wants to
send tourists to the United States
on sightseeing trips like some
$500 American tourists took in
the USSR last year. Soviet
Charge D'Affairs Sergei R.
Striganov said today.
The SOVIET Union also wants
to resume the exchange of per-
sons program on a reciprocal
basis, Mr.. Striganov announced
There are Soviet people who
want to come here as tourists as
Americans went to the Soviet
Union" he said in an interview
But Soviet citizens can't come
here because of admittance pro-
cedures."
He referred to United States
that foreign visi-
tors be fingerprinted, a procedure
the Soviet Union has repeatedly
protested.
The United States suspended
its cultural exchanges with the
Soviet Union in November, Short
ly after Soviet troops moved into
Hungary to put down the revolt
there. Americas IA associates in
the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization also have stopped
their cultural exchanges with
the Soviet Union.
Permit Private Exchanges
The suspension applies only to
Government arranged visits,
however. Private exchanges are
still being permitted.
Visas are still being issued for
Americans to travel in the USSR,
Mr.. Striganov said, but Russia's
cold winter has discouraged trips
for the time being.
The Soviet Charge said his
Embassy had not yet received
official word that the United
States had suspended its Gov
ernment-level exchange of per-
sons program.

Know|ond's Plan to Quit
Stirs Talk on His Future
By ROBERT X. WALSH

Speculation over the future
political course and presidential
ambitions of Senate Republican
Leader Knowland was even
greater today than the surprise
over his suddenly announced de-
cision to leave the Senate after
next year.
The 48-year-old California
Republican firmly closed the
door on any pleas. persuasion or
draft to have him seek re-
election to the Senate when his
term ends in January, 1859.
But deSpite-or perhaps be-
cause of-his smiling but stub
born refusal to comment further
at a news conference late yes
terday, he apparently left the
door open as a contender for
Governor of his State in 1859.
Such an Office conceivably could
lead him faster along a political
corridor to the 1860 Republican
presidential nomination.
Retirement Doubted
In any event. some of his SEN
ate colleagues as we'll as several
California Republican leaders
seemed certain today that MIR.
knowland would be far from re-
firing politically after he leaves
the Senate.
They viewed the stage as be-
ing practically set thus far in
advance for a showdown two
years hence between the Cali
fornia forces of Vice President
Gov. Goodwin j. Knight
and Mr.. Knowland himself.
Today Mr.. Nixon issued the
following statement:
Bill Knowland'S service to
his State and Nation has been
in the highest and best tradi-
tons of the United States
Senate. I have never known a
man who has worked harder or
who has been more dedicated in
his public service.
Il know I reflect the senti-
nents of his many friends in
California and throughout the
in expressing the hope
that despite the decision he
announced yesterday he will re-
turn to public service in the
future"
If the current three-way
struggle of Republican groups in
that State were broken in favor

Says Dulles
Takes Refuge
In Secrecy
BY J. A. O'LEARY

Representative Hays, Democrat
Of Ohio, walked out Of the House
Roreign Affairs Committee today
in protest against allowing Secre-
tary Of State Dulles to explain
some phases of the Middle East
resolution in closed session.
Il can understand that some
of the things the military would
say should be in executive ses-
sion," said Mr.. Hays. But that
would not apply to anything Mr..
Dulles will say"
The Secretary of State an
swered in open session for more
than four hours yesterday, but
Chairman Gordon, Democrat of
Illinois. agreed with him some
queries should be answered be-
hind closed doors.
One of these concerned the
exact geographical area the ad.
ministration includes in its re-
quest for authority to use armed
forces and economic aid to head
off Communist aggression.
Raps LEAK" Practice
The Secretary was accom-
panied by Admiral Radford,
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff, and. presumably, some
OF the questions today will deal
with military strength and the
ability of the United States to
help protect the Middle East.
Mr.. Hays told reporters that
when Mr.. Dulles policies are
getting into hot water they run
to the cover of executive ses-
Sions."
The Ohio Democrat also COM
planned that after closed sessions
the State Department is able to
LEAK" its version through
spokesman, but that committee
members are prevented from dis
closing in House debate what
they were told in executive ses-
4Sion.
1 Earlier today. Chairman Cor
tdthE of the committee predicted
| the House will approve the Eli
senhower resolution.
Meanwhile. Senate Republican
Leader Knowland also forecast
its passage by both houses, but
he anticipated considerable de-
bate in the Senate over the
economic aid which the resolu-
ton proposes to offer. in addi-
ton to military support.
May Seek Time Limit
Senator Knowland agreed that
changes may be proposed, includ-
ing some effort to put a more
definite time limit on the author
Iity requested by the President.
AS introduced. it would continue
until the President felt the peace
and security of the Middle East
were assured.

am not going to be stampeded
into action on this"
Representative Selden, Demo-
crat of Alabama, said he would
be surprised if there are any
votes against the resolution in
its entirety in the House COM
mittee.
Mr.. Dulles made it clear yes
Iterday that if the United States
decides to help any Middle East
nation which may be attacked,
this country would not be limited
to military action in the Middle
East area. He said the phrase
secure and protect" was used
purposely in the resolution to
enable the United States to
strike at staging areas of the
aggressor outside of the Middle
East if that was advisable.
Chairman Gordon said he does

Arabs Studying
]. ). Doctrine
Second Look Finds
Some ADVANTAGES

CAIRO. Jan. 8 P.-Egypt
and her three closest Arab allies
today were reported working
out common stand toward the
new Eisenhower doctrine.
The first reaction in most Arab
capitals to the Presidents plan
for blocking communism in the
Middle East was unfavorable.
But after taking a second look.
some Arab voices spoke out in
favor of some aspects of the
doctrine.
The Cairo newspaper AL
Ahram said Egypt. Syria, Saudi
Arabia and Jordan have begun
important consultations" re-
garding the new United States
policy. These four nations
armies are allied in a series of
defense pacts under an Egyptian
commander.
AL Ahram said: sit is learned
that these four governments
have taken a common stand re-
igarding the future of the area
their foreign relations in general
and their relations with the
United States in particular. They
Will explain their views frankly
and unequivocally to the Ameri-
can mission which President
Eisenhower has decided to send
to the Mideast to expound his
new policy"
Saud to Hear Personally
The President has named
James P. Richards, former chair
man OF the House Foreign Affairs
committee. to head a team to
explain the Middle East doctrine
to the affected nations. Most
Arab governments have refrained
from announcing an official
STAND on the doctrine so far.
King Saud of Saudi Arabia
however, will be told about the
plan personally by President
Eisenhower. At the Presidents
invitation. the monarch will visit
Washington at the end of the
month for a discussion of Middle
East matters of mutual interest
to the two nations"
Favorable comments on the
Eisenhower plan were voiced by
Arabs ranging from pro-Western
Lebanese Foreign Minister
Charles Malik to some normally
anti-western Syrian politicians.
King Hussein of Jordan told the
United States Ambassador in his
capital the Arabs welcome the
recent American attitude on
Middle East questions but have
some reservations on the Eisen-
hover doctrine.
In Cairo. the Egyptian gov-
Iernnment-backed French Ian
guage newspaper Bourse Egyp-
tienne ran an editorial general
ly approving the doctrine. Ear
llier Egyptian reaction had been
almost universally cool.
Defended Against Charges
Bourse attacked Communist
bloc leaders for calling the Eli
senhower doctrine a new at
tempt to enslave the Orient"
The Egyptian Middle East
News Agency in a dispatch from
Damascus summed up the official
attitude in Syria thus:
Official circles here received
the Eisenhower statement with
caution. remarking it contained
"a number of points which could
be acceptable to the free coun-
tries of the Mideast, while other
points do not conform to the
liberty and independence of those
countries"

Funds AIIocuted
For Southwest
Renewal Project

The District today accepted a
contract for a Federal grant of
$24,907 .604 and a loan of $79.-
728.350 to carry out the 446-acre
Southwest Area c redevelopment
project here.
The funds were announced
yesterday by Housing Admins
traitor Albert M. Cole and repre-
sents the largest sums ever
approved for a single project in
the Federally aided urban re-
newal program.
Today, the Commissioners au-
thorized the Redevelopment
Land Agency to accept the con-
tract. The agency board did so,
and sent a representative by
train Immediately to the Phila-
delphia regional Office of the
Housing and Home Finance
Agency with a requisition for the
first SIS million installment of
the loan.
Officials here expected a check
for the money within a day or
two, so that it can begin buying
land. Early purchases are ex-
pected to be in the town center"
site of the project area.
Planned Since 1854
Land Agency Director John R.

half Of this year and that most
of the land should be bought in
three years.
This puts us in business" Mr..

is bounded generally by the
waterfront. Fourteenth street.
the Mall, South Capitol street,
Delaware avenue and Fort Nc
Nair. 1t takes up most of the
Southwest area.
The area is to be rebuilt in
accordance with the plan drawn
largely by the New York real
estate firm headed by William
zeckendorf. This calls for ex-
tensive remodeling of the water
front, consolidated shopping
facilities in the town center, new
residential units in elevator
apartments and row houses and
a so-called south mall.
Mr.. Zeckendorf and other de-
velopers are expected to do mucnI
of the rebuilding. Mr.. zecken-
DORIS firm is slated for one
thing to undertake the 13-acre
town center, the commercial
facilities. of which will service,
besides Area C. the adjoining 30
acre Area B pilot project in
Southwest.
sig Acres Involved
With Area B. for which a Fed
eral loan of $8,S33.391 and a
capital grant of S4,696.569 were
approved previously. the two re-
development projects will involve
512 acres.
This is a dramatic demon
stration of urban renewal in the
Nations Capital" Mr.. Cole said.
Here is a sign post and symbol
for the rest of the country. The
revival and renewal of our cities
is one of the most crucial prob
lens facing the American peo-
pie today"
The grant announced yester-
day, approved by Acting Urban
Renewal Commissioner Richard
L. Steiner, covers two-thirds of
the net project cost. 1t includes
the cost of relocating approx
mately 400 familis to be dis
placed.
The District will provide some
$50 million in city facilities, such
as water. sewer, road, school and
recreation construction. of which
about SIS million will be credited
to the city's share in the project

Delphian Society
Picnic Held Here
With Mrs. Beach

The London Delphian Society
held its annual picnic June 10 at
the lovely country home of Mrs.
Downing Beach. After the delicious
meal business meeting was held.
The society is happy to receive
into its membership two new mem
bers. Miss Dorothy Gibson and
Mrs. c. c. Holland.
For the program Mrs. B. M
Beatty chose as her subject the
launching of the earth satellite,
Preparations for this event are be-
ing made at Cape Canaveral on the
Florida coast and experimental
rockets are being launched. There
will be three rockets, each of
which will go a certain distance,
with the third and inside rocket
launching the satellite itself, at a
distance of three miles from the
earth. The first plans for this were
proposed at a meeting in Rome in
1854 as a part of the International
Geophysical Year.
The progress of the satellite, a
twenty pound sphere which will
circle the globe in ninety to one
hundred minutes, will be observed
by teams of moon watchers" in
various countries and the dates will
be sent to the observatory at Har-
ward.
While the scientists freely admit
that the experiment may be fail
ure, they have great hope that the
satellite will circle the earth for
five or six years.
The tiny mini-track, the radio
device for sending reports back to
earth will be worn out in about
two weeks after the launching, but
the behavior of the satellite will re-
veal important information about
cosmic rays and will aid in under
standing the electric phenomena of
outer space.
A lively discussion followed and
the interest of the group was GER
tainly stimulated by the new in
formation presented by Mrs. Beat
ty.
Mrs. Webster thanked each
member for her cooperation dur
ing the year and presented the gav-
ell to Mrs. Cluxton, the incoming
president. Mrs. Cluxton spoke of
her pleasant experience in Del
phian and wished everyone hap
py summer.
