LEOPOLDVILLE, the Congo (?P)—Reports of a new

Cambodia Refuses
Laos Conciliatory
Commission Plea'
PHNOM PENH, Cambodia ( ,1 P)
—Cambodia yesterday rejected
Laotian King Savang Vathana's
plea that it serve on a three
nation commission with Burma
and Malaya to help settle the
civil war in Laos. The king's plan
thus appeared doomed.
Cambodia said such a commis
sion could not control foreign in
tervention in the war-torn jungle
kingdom without cooperation
from pro-Communist rebels. Corn
munist nations also turned down
the king's proposal, made in an
extraordinary appeal to the world
Sunday.
The Laotian problem should be
settled by a larger international
commission, which must guaran
tee all Laotians the freedom to
elect a government of their choice,
Cambodia said.
A Cambodian communique said
Prince Norodom Sihanouk's gov
ernment still favors a 14-nation
conference on Laos as the prince
previously proposed. The United
States rejected this plan last
month because it would bring
Red China to the negotiating
table
Britain and the United States
announced sympathy" for the
king's plan immediately after he
voiced it. Malaya agreed to serve
on the neutral commission and
Btirma took a receptive attitude.
But Red China and the pro-
Communist rebels who control a
large area of eastern Laos de
nounced the plan.

Fears of a blood bath grew as
Stanleyville authorities remained
silent on a U.N. demand for in
, formation on the fate of 15 politi
cal prisoners believed executed
by the rebels.
Diplomats here Said Bernard
Saiumu, former secretary to Lu
mumba, quarreled with Antoine
Gizenga, the Communist-backed
rebel leader, and fled Stanley
.ville. Salumu was the rebels' main
contact with the United Arab
!Republic. The UAR is believed by
some to be a main source of arms
for the rebel reginig controlling
the northeastern Congo.
Since the slaying of Lumum
ba was announced by Katanga
Province authorities last week,
the rebels in Stanleyville have
been maneuvering among them
selves for the mantle of leader
ship worn by the deposed pre
mier even during his two
months in. jail.
Anicet Kashamura was rumor
ed under arrest by Stanleyville
soldiers.
Kashamura had been designat
ed leader of Kivu Province
south of Stanleyville and Oriental
Province when the rebels
seized the area early this year.
Reaction among Congolese
leaders to the new U.N. Secur
ity Council resolution contin
ued hostile. The resolution
called on the United Nations
to use force if necessary to pre
vent civil war.
Reading between the lines of
the various Congolese statements,
however, diplomats detected a
willingness to meet the new U.N.
position part way.

JFK Wants
Action On
Resources
WASHINGTON (/')—Pres
ident Kennedy called on Con
gress yesterday to give im
mediate attention to the many
problems of conserving and
developing this country's na
tural resources.
He also called for the fullest
cooperation of state and local
governments and private indus
try, declaring "it is not a task
which should or can be done by
the federal government alone."
Kennedy rejected a "no new
starts" policy, which aides at
tributed to the Eisenhower ae.-
ministration. Kennedy said this
policy of holding up new proj
ects took a heavy toll of lives
and money "by postponing es
sential flood control projects."
Kennedy's message ranged over
a wide area of immediate and
long-range problems in what he
called "the widely scattered re
source policies overlapping, con
flicting and wasteful policies
dealing with water, land, forests
and minerals."
There was no over-all cost
estimate. Many of Kennedy's
recommendations were based on
future needs and administration
officials indicated they expect
little immediate effect on the
budget.
Among other things, the Presi
dent's program looks to develop
ment of economically competitive
nuclear power within 10 years to
supplement or replace conven
tional power in areas where gen
erating costs are high.
It also envisages exploration of
the oceans for oil, gas and min
erals and additional food; great
expansion of recreational areas;
control of air and water pollution,
and forest conservation.
Airline Engineers
End Flight Walkout
WASHINGTON (10—Prodded on all sides, flight engi
neers of six airlines decided yesterday to return to work at
once, ending the nation's most paralyzing airlines strike.
The announcement of the walkout's end was made per
sonally by President Kennedy. Secretary of Labor Arthur J.
Goldberg stood at his side in the
White House.
Kennedy's statement, however,
did not signal full peace on the
airlines' labor front. Western Air
Lines was not covered.
Goldberg said Western's flight
engineers still would stay out be
cause the company had refused to
join the other airlines in pledging
no reprisals against the strikers.
Flight Engineers Internation
al Association, however, agreed
to end its strike of Pan Ameri
can, Trans World. Eastern, Na
tional, and Flying Tiger air
lines.
By doing so, the engineers
heeded Kennedy's appeal of Tues
day to return. to work while a
presidential peace-seeking com
mission studied the dispute.
Pressure was applied to the en
gineers when George Meany,
president of the AFL-CIO, sec
onded the President's appeal. And
the airlines added mort pressure
when they handed the engineers
an ultimatum Wednesday.

Will Introduce
Civil Rights Bill
WASHINGTON (4) Noting
that President Kennedy hasn't
asked for one, Senate Republican
Leader Everett M. Dirksen of Illi
nois said yesterday he would "un
furl a civil rights bill" in a couple
of weeks.
Dirksen, after a conference of
Senate and House GOP leaders,
said he would introduce his bill
"in the absence of any clear in
dication the administration is
going to submit anything.".
_ The Illinois senator said his civ
il lights bill would cover propos
als to give statutory authority to
the equal jobs opportunity corn
mission and to give federal aid
to school districts to help them
