Red China Head, Mao, Reelected TOKYO, Sept. 28 (/P)—The Peo ple’s Congress yesterday renamed Mao Tze-tung number one man in Communist China and handed the number two post to aging- General Chu Teh, Red Army com mander. ■ Peiping radio said the elections were, unanimous, but it seemed obvious that Mao had hand-picked his old .comrade-in-arms for the position which would make Chu top man should Mao die.

Eden ritade his proposal on the eve of the fateful nine-power con ference opening here tomorrow to bring West Germany into the. free world’s defense setup. U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, following talks with Eden last night and with French Premier Pierre Merides-France this afternoon, was reported in sisting on “substantial progress iri 1954.”. / At the last minute, the French injected a hew and disturbing element by spreading word they wanted a Saar settlement under Brussels Pact auspices as a con dition for their acceptance of -West German rearmament. Eden’s new plan proposed post poning the N.AiT.O. Council of Foreign Ministers, set for around Oct. 15, to give the Allies time to grant West Germany its sov ereignty so .it could become a Committee McCarthy In voting unanimously for cen sure ,on two. of five main cate gories of charges, the investi gating committee headed by Sen ator Arthur V. Watkins (R.-Utah) held that: McCarthy was “contemptuous, contumacious and denunciatory” toward a Senate subcommittee which investigated his finances in 1952. Intemperate Statements He made statements about fel low senators on the subcommittee that were ‘‘clearly intemperate, in bad taste and unworthy of a member of this body.” He treated Brig. Gen. Ralph W. Zwicker, when the general was a witness before him, in a manner that was “inexcusable” and “rep rehensible.” Other Charges Dropped The Watkins committee said other charges brought against the controversial senator “do not, un der all the evidence, justify a res olution of censure.” These were that McCarthy had sought to incite federal employes to break the law to bring him government’s secrets, and that -he had improperly received and used confidential information from ex ecutive files. Showed Irresponsibility While recommending against censure in these instances, the committee said the evidence . did show McCarthy had “committed a grave error” and acted im properly, showing “a high degree of irresponsibility.” . Whether the Senate will vote censure remained in dojibt to-, night. When half of the Senate’s 96 members had been polled in formally by The Associated Press, 29 of them were not saying how they might vote. Eleven were apparently in clined to approve of censure and three inclined to oppose it. Six praised the work of the commit tee or spoke well of its members, but went no further.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE' COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA Attlee Asks T ransfer Of Formosa SCARBOROUGH, England, Sept. 27 ( JP ) —Former Prime Min ister Clement Attlee declared to day Formosa should be turned over to Red China along with rank-and-file Chinese National ists there. He urged the transfer of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek to “some safe place.” The mild-mannered Laborite, just back from China and Rus sia, addressed the annual Labor party conference, which promptly acted on several important resolu tions in line with his views. Attlee’s call for turning For mosa over to Peiping “after a period” apparently went beyond his previous declarations on the subject. Heretofore he has sug gested neutralizing the island, either under special mandate or as a United Nations trusteeship. He viewed his entire program, in cluding Formosa, as a way of eas ing the “great fears” which he said exist in both the United States and China and renewed his call for admitting Communist China to the United Nations. Of the U.S. attitude on Formosa, Attlee said: “I can quite understand United States feeling on" this, but I do not think they are sufficiently realistic. As long as you have this thorn in the side of China, you will not get proper peace in that part of Asia.” Quarry Worker Rescued NEWPORT, Pa., Sept. 27 (JP) — Two doctors, creeping under a capsized crane and using make shif. instruments, today amputat ed thetoes of a quarry worker to release him from a huge slide of thousands of'tons of rock.

The Saar has been linked economically to Prance since the end of World War 11. The Germans seemed certain to turn it down. News of the French plan offset a wave of optimism among dele gates about the chances for suc cess at the conference. u. s„ Polar WASHINGTON, Sept. 27 (^P)—The United States and Canada today announced plans to build a fence of radar stations across the top of the continent as far north as practicable in the Arctic. This hew, northernmost network will be designed to give as early warning as possible to the approach of any enemy planes across the polar icecap and thus to help intercept a possible hydro gen or atomic bomb attack on America’s big cities. It will be the third radar chain stretched across Canada Two Present Chains The “Pinetree” chain, started four years' ago, extends across the populated southern part of the dominion, generally along the 54th parallel. This was a joint Canadian-U.S. project. Last spring, Canada undertook to finance, construct and operate the “Mid- Canada line” of radar stations across the broad center of the country. To d a y’s announcement said Canada and the United States had agreed in principle that “there is a need for the establishment of a distant early warning line across the far northern part of North America.” Planning Begins . Detailed planning has been or dered started at once, the an nouncement said, and what part each country will have in con structing and manning the new ra dar stations will be worked out afterward. Today’s announcement said con struction of the main control and warning radar installations in the United States and , the populated part of .Canada is now nearly complete and the Mid-Canada line is being built. The announcement said the complete warning system in Can ada will be extended, seaward on both flanks of the continent by the United States. This referred to the radar yarning system in Alaska, the airborne and ground detection systems in Northern Greenland, and Iceland and the ship and air search at sea.

Leader tonight announced an 11 -point plan he said was designed “to turn loose the energy of Pennsyl vania for full employment, full production and full prosperity without war.” The plan would be centered around a state planning commis sion, named by the governor and reporting directly to him. The commission would work with agencies of the state government, including a new state department of development and citizen civic councils in every county of the state. “Pennsylvania has energy in every form, butit isn’t being used,” said the Democratic nom inee for governor in this North umberland County town. The ad dress was carried on a statewide television hookup. “Coal,” Leader said, “lies idle in the ground, machinery works part-time in the factories, railroad cars aren’t moving, hundreds of thousands of skilled Pennsylvania workers are out of jobs or on short time.” J & 1 Bar-B-Que N.

In strong words, the minister, George K. C. Yeh, denounced the Geneva Conference and repeated his long-standing contention that the Soviet Union has qualified for expulsion from the UN. Yeh told the delegates that the Soviet Union talks of peaceful co-existence but Moscow actually wants to incapacitate the United Nations for major political deci sions. - He did not make a formal expulsion move, however. As to the Geneva Conference where Red -China gained its first international platform, Yeh said the parley legalized the fruits of aggression and brought about the dismemberment of Indochina against the wishes of the people. In other speeches, the Philip pines, Australia and the -Nether lands lined up in support of Pres ident Eisenhower’s “atoms-for peaee” proposals. Carlos P.
