"I - sincerely hope that an op
portunity may be given to use be
fore long to welcome the Presi
dent in our country and to de
monstrate to him the high respect
and esteem in which we hold
him."
Nehru did not go into detail on
what topics he and Eisenhower
discussed.
Nehru appeared to be defend
ing himself against some criticism
that India is too close to the So
viet bloc when he said that In
dia's policy flows from its deter
mination to "maintain friendly
relations with all countries."
Cites Ideas
Such a neutral policy "does not
mean submission to what we con
sider evil," he said.
He- called for "the free ex
change of ideas and trade and
other contacts between nations."
And in this connection he said
"no Indian forgets" U.S. sympa
thy and support.
Nehru expressed "deeply felt
sympathies" to persons suffering
in the Middle •East and Eastern
Europe.
Referring to "the tragedies in
Egypt and Hungary," he declared
they had demonstrated that "the
most powerful countries cannot
revert to old colonial methods or
impose their domination over
weak countries."
World Must Help
As a result of world reaction to
the Soviet military move against
Hungary and the British-French
military occupation of Egypt's
Suez Canal zone, he said, possibly
"freedom will be enlarged and
will have a more assured basis."
Speaking of the people of Egypt
and • Hungary, Nehru said the
whole world must try to help
them in a "peaceful and construc
tive way."
He made no specific mention of
U.S. economic aid, although it is
well known India is seeking
something like 75 million dollars
a year from the United States to
help put over its second five-year
plan just getting under way.

Syria Refuses Request
DAMASCUS, Syria. Dec. 18 (IF)
—Syria today turned down U.S.
and Italian requests for emer
gency. repairs on the pipelines
carrying oil from Iraq across Syria
to Mediterranean ports.
,The women, neither of whom
was named, were arrested several
weeks ago, but the news was kept
secret until Swiss counterintelli
gence had completed its investi
gation.
The Italian woman, it was an
nounced, acted mainly as a cour
ier and was expelled because - it
could not - be proved she intention
ally helped organize the espion
age service. The Hungarian-born
Swiss woman, who acquired her
Swiss citizenship by marriage,
will be tried at Neuchatel.
Atty. Gen. Rene Dubois said
the ring operated mainly' against
Italy, - a member of the North At
lantic Alliance. Officials said
Swiss security had not been dam
aged.
Egypt Balks
At Proposed
Canal Plan
PORT SAID, Egypt, Dec. 18 or)
A compromise plan to use Brit
ish-French salvage crews for re
opening the Suez Canal was re
ported en route to UN Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold to
day. However, Egypt balked.
In Cairo, an Egyptian Suez Ca
nal Authority spokesman said au
thorities will not even comment
on the plan until the British and
French soldiers pull out of this
Mediterranean terminal.
Rejection Indicated
That appeared to mean a rejec
tion since the British-French com
manders said their salvage fleet
will go out with the troops if no
agreement is reached beforehand.
British naval authorities said
the plan was sent to Hammar
skjold by the UN chiefs in Egypt.
It simply calls for salvage crews
to change from military to civil
ian clothes and stay on the job.
Egypt agreed to the use of Brit
ish-French salvage ships already
in Port Said but drew the line
on allowing their crews to woik
on the blpcked canal.
Cairo sources in close touch
with President Nasser's govern
, ment said they are sure Egypt
will stick to this stand.
Contention Disputed.
Suez Canal Authority officials
privately disputed the British
contention that to reject the Brit
ish-French crews would double
the time required to clear the
canal.
They asserted Britain was try
ing to make it appear Egypt was
delaying the canal clearance and
thereby damaging the economies
of such friends of Egypt as Cey
lon and Indonesia. Both nations
rely heavily on the canal.
Eden Tells Plan
To Keep Job
LONDON, Dec. 18 (JP)—Prime
Minister Anthony Eden tonight
convinced Conservative members
of Parliament that he intends to
stay in office despite the political
storms swirling around him.
Informants said Eden was not
entirely out of the woods yet.
But his position was considered
stronger now than when he ar
rived back in London last Friday
after three weeks rest in Jamaica.
The sources said he certainly
will not meekly march off to re
tirement. Only an upheaval in the
party can force him out_
Eden attended a private meet
ing tonight of rank and file Con
servative members of the House
of Commons.
Eden conferred with his fellow
Conservatives a few hours after
telling the House of Commons he
would like to meet with President
Eisenhower and that his desire
"was very well known" by the
American government.
Hungarians Testify
On Red Deportation
WASHINGTON, Dec. 18 (RI
Two masked Hungarians today
gave the Senate Internal Security
subcommittee fresh evidence that
Russia engaged in mass deporta
tions in an effort to crush the
Budapest revolt.
One o fthe witnesses, using the
assumed name of Istvan Kovacs,
said he was herded into a cattle
car with 80 other freedom fighters
but managed to escape with them
after they got word they were
bound for Russia.
The witnesses appeared before
the Senate group wearing surgi
cal masks and white cloth caps
similar to those of hospital order
lies. It was part of elaborate pre
cautions taken to conceal their
identity and prevent reprisals
against relatives still in Hungary.
Study Sees Fast Growth
In Economy Necessary
WASHINGTON, Dec. 18 (.4")—
A new employment study, pub
lished today by the Public Af
fairs Institute, indicates that the
national economy will have to
grow fast in the next ten years
to provide jobs for the growing
number of workers.
It said that in the early 1960's
the labor force will be swelled

British, French Ask UN
To Aid Citizens in Egypt
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Dec. 13 (1') France and
Britain called on UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold
today to take action to stop what they called the mistreatment
of their nationals in Egypt.
At the same time, Egypt circulated a memorandum to the
General Assembly complaining]
that Egyptian nationals were be
ing subjected to severe measuresi
in Britain and France.
The crossfire of charges erupt
ed in spite of the efforts of Ham
marskjold and U.S. Delegate Hen
ry Cabot Lodge Jr., to prevent it.
Hammarskjold and Lodge had ob
jected in private to British and
French plans to air their com
plaints, saying that such action!
might provoke a long and heated
debate in the Assembly over the
I delicate Middle East situation,
May Hold Up Canal Opening
As these charges flared, Ham
marskjold was negotiating with
Britain for the use of six salvage
vessels without their crews and
the British and French were de
manding that Hammarskjold use
their entire salvage fleet as a
unit. The row over use of the
British-French fleet threatened to
hold up the work of clearing the
vital Suez Canal and add further
t the troubles of countries de
pendent upon it.
Valery Giscard D'Estaing, mem
ber of the French National]
Assembly and parliamentary ad
(visor to to the French delegation,]
'said in a speech to the Assembly
'that 'France wanted assurances
from Egypt that expulsions and
mistreatment of French nationals]
in Egypt would stop. He charged
that expulsion of French nationals
was accompanied by arbitrary
measures against the property
and interests of French nationals
in Egypt.
UN Accuses
Shortly before he spoke, the
UN released a memorandum
handed to Hammarskjold by
Egyptian Foreign Minister Mah
moud Fawzi: It accused the Brit
ish and French of killing al per
sons in
,Port Said earlier this
week, arresting a large number
of inhabitants and taking away
private property.
Omar Loutfi of Egypt, answer
ing the French and British dele
gates, said Egypt has taken no
unjustified measures counter to
international law.

—Vice President Richard M.
Nixon, acting on 'orders from
President Eisenhower, flew
off to Austria today for a
first-hand survey aimed at pro
ducing "firm recommendations"
for the handling of United States
aid to Hungarian refugees.

Four Arrested
As FBI Cracks
Oil Map Thefts
NEW YORK. Dec. 18 (.4')—The
FBI said today it has cracked an
underworld network that stole
and sold top secret oil exploration
maps worth "millions of dollars"
from the Gulf Oil Co.
Four men were arrested here.
including one already in prison
waiting to be sentenced for trying
to extort more than half a mil
lion dollars from the late financier
Serge Rubinstein.
The maps—kept in top secret
files in Gulf's Pittsburgh offices
—were the result of years of
geological surveys. They located
possible oil deposits of great
value in the southwestern Unit
ed States, Canada and the Near
East.
The FBI said it recovered many
of the maps at the offices of the
U.S. Tackless Corp. in the Bronx,
of which Edward Lieberman, 30,
is president. Lieberman was one
of the four arrested here.
U.S. Atty. Paul Williams said
the maps were stolen over a
period of nearly five years. At
least 30 maps were taken, Wil
liams said, along with geological
reports and data on gas and oil
reserves in the United States and
Canada.

Seen as Possibility
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, Dec.
18 OM—Responsible sources said
tonight they believe President
Josef Tito would accept an invi
tation to visit the United States.
In Washington Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles said
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
is giving sympathetic considera
tion to the idea of inviting Tito.
Informants here said accept
ance of the invitation would be in
line with Tito's view that high
level personal contacts are the
most useful way to secure world
peace.
