DuC TeaQ THIS DTl6I statement
When I left New York on
Tuesday Of last week. ! went to
have informal exploratory talks
have had such talks in Cairo
and only in Cairo. My talks in
Cairo reached a point at which
! felt it would be better to re-
turn to New York to continue
similar talks in the United Ma
tons. l hope the talks in Cairo
will prove helpful. and that the
talks here will also be useful"
Support Of Stand Seen
In Cairo. meanwhile, Col.
Nasser's chief political aide,
Wing Comdr. Ali Sabry said in
an interview that the Egyptian
government believes Hammar-
skiold is convinced of the sound
ness" of Egypt's position on the
Suez Canal. Comdr. Sabry said
Egypt would allow no forgein
supervision whatsoever of the
canals operation.
Aides said one of Mr.. Ham
marskjold's first appointments
would be with United States
Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge
and that he would lunch with
Canadian Foreign Secretary
Lester B. Pearson and Norwegian
Ambassador Hans Engen, both
OF whose nations are members
Of the secretary generals seven
nation Middle East advisory
committee.
Mr.. Hammarskiold was to
meet with the full committee
this afternoon. The other mem
bers are Brazil. Ceylon, Colon
bia. India, and Pakistan.
Diplomatic sources in Cairo
said Mr.. Hammarskjold had
reached an oral "gentlemen's
agreement" with Col. Nasser for
U N. Emergency Force troops to
remain along the GAIA armistice
line for the time being.
The informants said they be-
lieved the agreement included a
promise from Col. Nasser not to
send Egyptian troops into the
GAIA Strip Immediately and to
take no action regarding Israeli
shipping in the Gulf OF Aqaba.
Troops Enjoy Hospitality
One Egyptian source said
UNEF troops were in GAIA ZEN
joying Egyptian hospitality" and
emphasized that more formal ar
rangements will have to be
reached regarding their status.
But it also was stressed that
Egypt views it desirable to keep
the U. N. forces along the border
dividing the GAIA Strip and Is
rael.
Mr.. Hammarskiold has pro-
posed stationing of U.N. units
along both sides Of the armistice
line to curb border raids and
lessen the danger OF renewed
violence. Israel has said it will
