UN Looks to U.S. Aid
To Effect Gaza Pull-Out
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Feb. 4 (/ P ) —Worried by Israel's firm refusal to get out of
Egypt without guarantees, UN delegates looked to the United States today to take the lead
in a new Assembly debate, perhaps Thursday, on the deteriorating Middle East crisis.
The view wgs expressed by several delegates in private talks that it was up to the
United States to jbring pressure on Israel in order to obtain compliance with UN resolu
tions requesting withdrawal. The U. S. delegation was silent on these expressions but was
engaged in extensive constulta
tions with delegations from var
ious parts of the globe
Secretary General Dag Ham
marskjold called Israeli Ambas
sador Abba Eban to; his office for
an afternoon appointment. It was
delayed for 30 minutes while
Eban held a hurried' corridor con
sultation with his foreign minis
ter, Mrs. Golda Meir. Informed
sources speculated that Eban had
received from Jerusalem the de
cision of the Israeli government
to remain at Sharm el Sheikh, in
the Aqaba Gulf sector, and in the
Gaza Strip for the time being.
Authoritative sources said Eban
emphasized the importance of
things to be done under the sec
ond of two resolutions approved
by the Assembly. They said this
gave Hammarskjold a broad field
of action.
Hammarskjold explained that
lesrael must know what will hap
pen if Israel complies with the
Assembly withdrawal demand,
contained in the first of the twin
resolutions.
The spokesman said there was
a broad discussion pn all aspects
of the two resolutions. He said
the talk was held in a construc
tive spirit and will be continued
during the week.
The secretary general started
action yesterday in accord with
the latest Assembly evacuation re
quest to Israel, approv«ed late
Saturday night with a 74-2 vote.
One delegate in the Western
group said the time had come for
Hamarskjold to make another
trip to the Middle East in a per
sonal effort to find a solution on
the spot.
This delegate, who declined to
be identified, said Hammarskjold
must work out an arrangement on
the Suez Canal, due to be opened
to light shipping next month, as
well as on the distribution of the
UN Emergency Force and imple
mentation of the 1949 armistic
agreement between Israel and
Egypt
Depression Signs
Seen by Hoover
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4 (JP)—
Former President Hoover said to
day that the current inflation
shows signs of a depression
"agony" like that which beset his
own administration.
In an appeal for governmental
conference. Hoover repeated Sec
retary of the Treasury George M.
Humphrey’s recent forecast that
big federal budgets, if long con
tinued, will produce “a depression
that will curl your hair.”
“Mine has already been curled
once—and I think I can detect
the signs,” Hoover, 83, said in a
prepared speech here and for a
nationwide radio audience (NBC).
6 Western European Nations
To Eliminate Tariff Barriers
BRUSSELS, Belgium, Feb. 4 (JP) —Diplomats of six Western
European countries claimed enthusiastically today they have just
about finished treaties creating a common market and atomic pool
If their optimism is justified, these treaties will revolutionize
the life of Europe. Tariff barriers will crumble and set up a vast
U.S.-type market of some 160 million persons.
“Everything is settled; or prac
tically so,” conference chairman
Paul-Henri Spaak of Belgium told
reporters.
He said the foreign ministers
would meet again in Paris Feb. 17
and the prime ministers of the six
countries would put the final
touches to the agreements in the
same capital the next day or the
19th. The treaties, Spaak said,
probably would be signed March
10.
The six countries are France,
VTest Germany, Italy, Nether
lands, Belgium and Luxembourg.
The United States has supported
the plan and British Prime Min
ister Harold Macmillan has of
fered to join with the new organi
zation in a. special “free trade
zone” to be discussed during the
Paris meetings.
Spaak said final agreement was

Brownell Declaration
Urges Civil Rights
Washington, Feb. 4 (tP) —Attorney General Herbert Brownell
declared today there would be no federal encroachment on states’
authority in the administration’s civil rights program. He urged
passage of the legislation to “af
firm the Congress’ determination
to secure equal justice under law
for all of our citizens.”
Brownell, first witness at a
hearing called by the House Judi
ciary Committee, said, the pro
gram is designed to protect rights
guaranteed by the Constitution
through civil action rather than
by* criminal prosecution as the law
now requires.
There was every indication the
program faces rough sledding in
tthe House as well as in the Sen
ate. Southern congressmen served
notice they were ready to use all
parliamentary devices to delay it.
Rep. Edwin E. Wills (D-La)
said they will offer “formidable”
arguments against President Ei
senhower’s program.
The program, one of the major
pieces of legislative business sent
to Congress by Eisenhower, calls
for laws to protect voting rights
and provides for civil damage
suits where civil rights have been
violated,.as determined by the
courts.
It also calls for creation of a
bipartisan commission to investi
gate .reported violations of civil
rights, and for creation of a civil
rights division in the Justice De
partment under an assistant at
torney general.
One of the proposed new laws
would permit the government to
reached today on internal prices
for agricultural products, trans
port prices and the voting strength
of the parliamentary assembly to
legislate for the new community.
No details were made public.
The one outstanding hurdle left
was how to associate France’s
overseas territories with the com
mon market. More reason for the
delegates’ b u b b ling enthusiasm
was introduction by West Ger
man Foreign Minister Heinrich
von Brentano of a new formula
approaching French’ wishes.
He said his country was willing
to agree that, in return for what
ever benefits might accrue from
opening French territories to Ger
man products, an expanding pro
gram of social investments—hos
pitals, schools, roads—would be
financed by West Germany.
use injunctive powers to prevent
violations of civil rights. Under
this law the government could
seek court orders, in advance of
election, to prevent illegal inter
ference with voters. Under pres
ent laws the , government can
only prosecute after the voter has
actually been denied his rights
on election day.
Dissolution Fears
Of National Guard
Allayed by Ike
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4 ffl-
National Guard leaders reported
today a “most satisfactory” re
action from President Eisenhower
to their worries that a new Pent
agon training order might harm
or destroy the Guard.
Maj. Gen. Melton A. Reckford,
speaking for himself and three
other generals who called on the
President, said:
. “The President was very gra
cious and gave us his assurance
that he will not permit the Guard
to be destroyed. That satisfied
me.”
The four Guard generals asked
to see Eisenhower in an after-'
math of criticisms expressed by
Secretary of Defense Wilson last
week. Wilson said that a sort of
draft dodging scandal developed
in Guard enlistments during the
Korean War, and that the Guard
was not now “a well-trained out
fit that could be depended upon.”
Reckford is adjutant general of
Maryland. Accompanying him to
the White House were Maj. Gen.
Edward D. Sirois, until recently
commander of the 26th Infantrv
Division: Maj. Gen. Earle M.
Jones, California adjutant gen
eral; and Maj. Gen. Ronald C.
Brook, commander of the 27th ar
[mored division, New York Na
tional Guard.

thorities be public.

Senate would require that stand
ards and specifications be set up
for purchases by the commission.
Still another Senate proposal
would appropriate $lO,OOO for con
tinuance of a legislative investi
gation into the turnpike oper
ations.
Pineau Says
France to Defy
UN on Algeria
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Feb.
4 (/P) Foreign Minister Chris
tian Pineau warned today France
would ignore any recommenda
tions the UN might make on tur
bulent Algeria.
In a 20,000-word speech to the
UN Political Committee, Pineau’
stressed anew that France re-i
gards Algeria as a purely internal
matter. He blamed Egypt, the!
Soviet Union, and international!
comtnunism for terrorism in the 1
North African possession.
Pineau asserted France cannot
accept any UN recommendation
on Algeria and added that if one
is made “we think it only fair to
give solemn warning to the United
Nations” that France would in no
way feel bound to apply it.
France walked out last year
when the General Assembly de
cided to take up the Algerian
issue.
Pineau-explained France agreed
to have it put on the agenda this!
year to enable his government to!
reply to campaigns of disparage-!
ment against France, and to 1
stress foreign interference in Al-
I gerian affairs.
