Soviet Mystery Patient
Is Top Machine Official
BY the Associated Press

Moscow's mystery patient is
Vyacheslav A. Malyshev. Soviet
Minister of Machine Building
and former Deputy Premier.
This was established in private
advices from the Soviet capital
today. Moscow news dispatches
identifying him are held up by
Soviet censors.
The mystery developed last
week end when DR.. Hans Schulz
ten, a West German blood spe-
cialist, was summoned to Mos
COW to help Russian doctors
treat the patient. His name was
concealed even from DR.. Schulz
ten.
While Russian officials had
stubbornly refused to disclose
the patients name. speculation
centered about several possibili-
ties. They included Foreign Min
lister Dmitri Shepilov. Deputy
Premier Lazar M. Kaganovich
and Marshal Alexander M. Vas
a deputy defense min
lister.
Mr. Malyshev. 50, was awarded
the Order Of Lenin on his 50th
birthday December 16, 1852.
A lieutenant general in World
War II. he has been active in

position that Buraimi is funda-
mentally an issue between Brit
ain and Saudi Arabia, one that
should be solved by direct nego-
tiations.
American officials are under
stood to have discouraged King
Saud's suggestion that the issue
might be brought before the
United Nations.
AS first step toward resum-
ing negotiations, King Saud has
been urged to resume diplomatic
contact with the British.
The United States has said it
would then try to get the Saudis
and British together for renewed
talks.
Sees Two Reassurances
Negotiation of an arms pact
with King Saud continues,
meanwhile, with the United
States seeking to assure two
things:
First, that whatever arms are
supplied to not encourage any
aggression against Israel.
Second, that no arms are re-
exported--to Egypt or others
among King Saud's allies.
The difficulty is to find treaty
language which will embody
these provisions and still not
limit King Saud's sovereignty.
The United States has decided
that it is in it's interest to sup
ply Saudi Arabia with more
arms. This move will serve to
discourage King Saud from turn
ing to Egypt for any more mill
tary help. and also would remove
the temptation to seek Russian
arms. Up to now the Saudis
have refused Soviet arms offers

Dulles Implies Support
For Sanctions on Israel
Asserts u. S.
Would Study
u. N. Plan
BY EARL H. vOSs

The United States would have
to give very serious consideration
to any proposed United Nations
sanctions against Israel to force
her withdrawal from Egypt, but
this country would not apply
sanctions unilaterally, Secretary
of State Dulles said at his news
conference today.
He added he has good ground
to hope Israel will voluntarily
take her troops out of the GAIA
Strip and the Gulf of Aqaba area
of Sinai.
A country which has respect
for opinions of mankind and de-
ponds very largely on the con-
tinued good will of the world
community is likely to abide by
an overwhelming vote such as
the U. N. recorded last week end,
he said. France and Israel were
the only nations to oppose a
U. N. resolution demanding an
immediate withdrawal of Israel
from Egypt.
Won't Resign, He Says
Secretary Dulles also said he
has no plans to resign or retire.
Asked about attacks on him
in the Senate recently, he said
he did not think they were any
more bitter than is traditional
in American politics.
Some of the speeches on Cap
itol Hill were reminiscent of
the recent campaign, he said
with smile. Then he went on
to defend United States policies
in the Middle East. particularly
those opposing the British
French-Israel invasion of Egypt.
The decision to oppose in the
U. N. the United States ira
ditional allies. Britain and
France. when they attacked the
Suez area last November was
perhaps the most difficult and
most historically important in
a long time, Mr.. Dulles said.
Sees Doctrine Gaining
While the delay in congress
sional approval for the Eisen-
hover doctrine for the Middle
East may have somewhat weak
.ened its effect. the Secretary
says he does not think it is at
this point serious.
If there were filibusters, the
delay would have serious effect,
but he said there is recognition
abroad that the Middle East pol
icy is being given serious con-
sideration by Congress.
Mr.. Dulles engaged in a lively
discussion with correspondents
over the roots of his policy for
dlScouraging American reporters
to visit Red China.
American policy, he said, is
the same as that expressed by
the President at a recent press
conference. The United States
does not like to have American
citizens used as a means of
coercion against the United
States Government.
If the 10th American now held
in Red China were released
there would be different situa-
ton, he said.
MIR. Dulles disclosed, apparent
ly for the first time, that the
Communist Chinese nave made
American correspondents visits
to Red China a condition for re-
leasing American citizens.
The Secretary covered these
points:

Suez Canal Zone last fall.
In talks here during the past
week the Saudi Arabian dele
cation has sought the help OF
the American Government in
settling the Buraimi case.
Sovereignty over the GASES is
claimed by two British-pro-
tected potentates on the Arabian
coast and by King Saud. Fiji
teen months ago the British
broke off arbitration proceedings
which sought to establish SOW
Iereignty. 1t was charged that
the Saudis had bribed some of
the principals.
Seized by Troops
Just before the British walked
out of the arbitration. British
led troops of the coastal pro-
tectorateS took over the Buraimi
ioases by force. 1t was then they
claimed to have discovered the
bribery. The British protecto-
rates still hold the territory.
At present Buraimi is only a
desert crossroads. But it could
become important in establish
ing territorial rights If prospec-
tors we're to find new oil fields
In the vicinity.
The Saudis made several ap-
Iproaches to Great Britain to re-
sumo negotiations on Buraimi
early last year. The British ex-
pressed willingness to talk but no
meetings were arranged.
The Saudis are known to have
insisted that Buraimi be dis
,cuSsed by King Saud and Presi-
dent Eisenhower during his state
visit. 1t has been one topic COW
