Diplomatic — authorities that if and whem this occurs it will most likely include British Prime Minister Churchill and French Premier. Mayer. as well. The U. S., British, French and other friendly governments have been consulting intensively on the Kremlin’s evident peace offensive. They are reported to have come to an understanding to maintain a flexible, open-minded attitude to- ward specific propositions put for- ward by the Reds. The President’s words yesterday were clearly in line with this un- derstanding.* Though spoken infor- mally to a news conference, they had the diplomatic effect of of- ficially informing Moscow of this government’s -readiness to deal with. Communist proposals on the initial assumption that they are made in good faith, The President was asked for his estimate .or analysis of recent peace overtures from the Russians and the Communist Chinese, the latter having accepted the United Nations siiggestion for immediate exchange of sick and wounded pris- oners of wafin Korea and having sought resumption of- the truce talks. Eisenhower said it was very dif- ficult to say that any current spec- ulation should be dignified by the term analysis since some of it is very definite guessing. But, he said, he thought in this whole business of peace approach- es the U. S. should take at face value every offer made until it is proved not worthy of being so taken, He added that he did not believe, of course, that this government should ignore the history of past dealings with all its exasperating experiences and frustrations in the effort to promote peaceful arrange- ments. If the Communists go through with the exchange of sick _ and wounded prisoners, and if that in turn promotes armistice negotia- tions a$ they suggested, the Pres- ident remarked, that certainly: would be a clear indication that deeds rather than words were now to come into fashion. It would be a developmént which the U. S. government would welcome heart- ily, he said, without trying to. spec- ulate about what is behind it. Shortly before he went into the news conference, the President had conferred with Ambassador Charles E. Bohlen, who is leaving from New York today to take up Phis duties as U. S. envoy to’ Mos- to a question about whether™he “discussed with Bohlen a Malenkov -meeting, Ei- senhower said that subject was not discussed béoause so far ds ¢ lor could see there was no basis discussing it—at the moment. He. said that;in conformity re regular practiée, Bohlen cawhé call on him just before leaving for Europe. 40 And 8 To Hold Nominations Fri. in the City on also be made dur- expect} \Rinewhower Sie List For we By JACK BELL WASHINGTON (® —_ President Eisenhower today was reported canvassing the list of Western Republican’ governors along with other possibilities for the GOP national chairmanship. Eisenhower told a White House mews conference yesterday he thinks the committee, meeting here April 10, will. choose-a man who commands the highest respect ofthe country as a successor to C.

Roberts resigned after a Kansas violated the spirit of the state’s antiobbying law in collectién of an $11,000 fee in the sale of a hospital, to the state, before he be- came GOP chairman. ture of the man he wants as Roberts’ successor by indicating he may be difficult to find. The President said he doesn’t think anybody really wants the job of chairman. Some other Republicans weren’t so sure about that. Eisenhower and Sen. Taft of Ohio, the Republican leader, dis- cussed the chairmanship at a White House conference, apparent- ly with no concrete results. The question of picking a West- ern Republican governor was re- ported to have come up at that time. Among those said ‘to have been mentioned were Governors Dan Thorntor of Colorado, Edwin L. Mechem of New Mexico, Howard Pyle of Arizona and J. Bracken Lee of Utah. Eisenhower was said to be of the would have to resign and devote his full time to the national chair- manship, since he would be ex- pected to maintain headquarters in Washington. Besides the names of the gov- ernors, three youthful GOP state leaders were reported mentioned at the conference as possibilities for the chairmanship. They are Robert K. Goodwin, Towa national committeeman; Wayne Hood of Indiana; and Ray C. Bliss, Ohio state chairman.
