Optimism on
Arms Race
WASHINGTON, March 9 041
Harold E. Stassen said today that
embargoes salvaged by this coun
try at the 1954 Paris trade confer
ence may help it win the race to
develop an intercontinental guid
ed missile ahead of the Russians.
Stassen urged investigating
senators not to discount what he
called the "net advantage" real
ized by the United States from
the conference. •
'Pressured by Allies'
Before mentioning the guided
missile, Stassen pictured this
country as having been pressured
by its allies into agreeing to the
sale of zaachine tools and other
goods to Russia in order to pre
serve the system of international
trade controls.
This moved John L. McClellan
(D.-Ark.), chairman of the Sen
ate Investigations subcomMittee,
to remark that "some of our allies
are more interested in trade for
profit" than in preserving th e
peace.
Continued Agreement Worked
Both Stassen and Secretary of
Commerze Sinclair Weeks con
tended the trade agreement work
ed to the "net advantage of the
United States" by preserving the
system under which western na
tion refuse jointly to sell certain
strategic goods to Communist na
tions.
McClellan, who has been sharp
ly critical of the 1954 agreement,
refused to go along with this
view. He said he still believes the
agreement was "not a gain . . .
we lost."
Britain Banishes Cyprus Rebel Head
NICOSIA, Cyprus, Saturday,
March 10 (P) —the British
banished Archbishop Makarios
111 as a dangerous rebel yes
terday and clamped a steel
grip on this rebellious island
bastion. ; Defiant violence was the
answer of Greek-Cypriots.
The British said the high Greek
Orthodox churchman may actual
ly haVe been the chief under
ground terrorist here in Britain's
last Middle East military base.
He was a leader of the Greek-
Cypriot drive for independence
of this colony from Britain
and—oventually—u nion with
Greece.
The British made their decision
to banish him with suddenness af
ter long deliberation and. calcula
tion of the risks.
They said, he now had become
committed irrevocably to violence
and they refused to say where
he was being held.
Reaction was swift:
1. The Greek government
early today announced in Alb-
ens it was recalling its ambas
sador to London and complain
ing to the United Nations.
2. Task forces from the 50,000
British troops on the island spread
out over Nicosia and urban cen
ters in strength and violence
flared as expected. .
A British patrol was tired upon
near Paphos and a bomb was
hurled at another patrol in Fama
gusta. Three persons were in
jured. Another bomb exploded

hurt there.
