Gen. LeMay To Be Vice Chief IOf Air Force Staff

WASHINGTON R-Gen. Curtis E. LeMay, chief of the Strategic Air Command, yesterday was tapped to become vice chief of staff of the Air Force.
 In another major appointment, the Defense Department an nounced that Gen. Lyman Lem nitzer, now commander in chief of United Nations forces in Korea, will become vice chief of staff of the Army effective July 1.
 As vice chief of the Air Force, LeMay will succeed Gen. Thomas D. White, who is being promoted to chief of staff.
 The announcement made no mention of succession for LeMay in the Strategic Air Command. LeMay, famous as exponent of long-range atomic airpower, has been commander of the big bomb CT force since October 1948. A tough, cigar smoking combat commander, he has built the Stra- tegic Air Command into probably the worlds most powerful force.
 His interest has been oriented exclusively to the use of big bombers in strategic air war. This has caused some concern in the past among tactical airpower ex- ponents when LeMay's name had been mentioned speculatively as ! the eventual commander of the Air Force.

|Seorchers Fail to Find
Any Clue to Lost C-97

TOKYO, Sunday, Mar. "a (P),
The vast search for a missing
United States military transport
plane with 81 aboard ran into
a blind alley today.
Two United States Navy ships
sped $50 miles southeast of
Tokyo where yellow objects were
sighted in the Pacific Saturday
and radioed they found nothing.
They returned to the main
search area farther north.
Searchers had hoped the yell
low objects might be life RATS
or life jackets from the plane
that vanished three days ago.
A few search planes began
taking off shortly after daylight.
But most of the aerial search
force was grounded by bad
weather.
The Air Force said the ceiling
was only 400 feet and it was
raining heavily over much of the
area. Search craft also
were investigating considerable
debris" in the ocean 80 miles
east of Japan.
But Air Force officers acknowl-
edged that what they called the
greatest air-sea search ever or
ganized in the Far East has
turned up not one solid clue as
to the fate of the C-97 Stra.o-
cruiser which vanished early
Thursday almost within sight of
Japan. after a flight from CAL
ifornia.
Speculation on Explosion
There was no explanation of
why the plane radioed from $50
miles out that all was normal, /
then apparently minutes later
plunged into the sea without
flashing a plea for help.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-03-24

the radio operator could have
broadcast a distress signal which
could not have been missed.
Whatever happened to it had
to be sudden" one officer said.
There was no distress signal.
The (radio) operator could at
least have tied down his key
even in case of a sudden emer-
gency."
Since February % eight multi
engine planes have gone down
in the Far East with 152 persons
dead or missing.

The Egyptian Nations secretary gen.
era conferred eight hours today about

problems plaguing the Middle
East. But no details were an
nounced on this second of such
secret sessions since Mr.. Ham
marskjold arrived Thursday.
The diplomatic informants
said they view the possibility
Col. Nasser may act on his own
as increasingly probable.
And these diplomats fear the
Nasser plan will not be good
enough for shipping nations to
take. but not bad enough to
leave. They suspect the plan will
go far enough to get the canal
working smoothly in the i'm
mediate future but not provide
ironclad guarantees against a
future abuse Of power.
Concessions Hoped For
On the basis of fragmentary
hints it appears the most that I
can be hoped for in concessions
from Col. Nasser will be;
1. A special account for fixed
percentage of canal tolls to be
used by the United Nations Tech
nical Assistance Board for MAIN
tenance and development of the
canal. Col. Nasser would retain
veto power over the boards ac-
tivities.
2. undermining Of the 1888
ConStantinople Convention on
the canals operation and linking
it m some way to the U. N. This
convention would be only for
mai guarantee of free shipping.
8. There is an outside possible
ity Col. Nasser will agree to some
kind of advisory board represent
ing canal users for consultation
in case Of any changes considered
in tolls or other canal arrange
ments.
Firm Stand on Tolls
On the collection of tolls. Col
Nasser is expected to stick to his
guns that this is strictly in the
business Of his own Suez Canal :
Authority. He will agree to arbi-
tration on payment of compen-
sation to shareholders of the old
Suez Canal Co.. whose Egyptian
properties he nationalized almost
eight months ago. Il
This plan falls far short of
what the Western canal USERS
particularly Britain and France
would like. But if it is not ac-
ceptable. Col. Nasser is ready to
operate the canal-as he did last
fall-with his Suez Canal Au-
thority running the whole show.
