MID-JULY BIG-THREE PARLEY IS PREDICTED Critical Decisions May Be Made By Foreign Ministers if By JOHN SCALI WASHINGTON (#—A wide-rang- ing Big Three foreign ministers conference appears to be shapi up for some time in mid-July, Although billed 25 an informal session, there is every prospect critical cold war d ions May re- sult from this American - British = French meeting. Far Eastern problems, especially the wars in.Korea and Indochina, undoubtedly will dominate the agenda. But, informed officials said to- day, such troublesome questions as Germany’s future, the British - Egyptian quarrel and North Atlan- tie defense problems undoubtedly will be reviewed also. The first inkling that a foreign | ministers’ meeting was being planned came yesterday when the acting British Prime Minister. Richard A. Butler, told the House of Commons Britain had suggested such a get-together, Butler said it was necessary to discuss urgent problems and to “maintain the impetus given to our foreign policy” by the plans for a later meeting between Prime Min- ister Churchill, President Eisen- hower and French Premier Joseph Laniel at Bermuda. The State Department, somewhat surprised that Butler talked pub- licly about the-plans, disclosed that Secretary Dulles has agreed to the | suggestion that he meet here with Lord Salisbury, acting British for- eign secretary. France has been notified, with the idea that the French would send Georges Bidault, the new French foreign minister. State Department officials, while publicly expressing the view that the conference woud be “very use- ful,” appeared privately to have some reservations. One reason was an inevitable | French request for more U. 8. aid to fight Communist-led guerrillas in Indochina. Laniel’s new French government came to power last week with a pledge to do something about the heavy French financial and man- Power losses in Indochina. Diplomats also believed it likely the foreign ministers would review German developments, in the light of the recent East German riots, and explore East-West relations Senerally. “Another problem ‘likely to find its way on the agenda was Britain's long-standing quarrel with Egypt | over the Suez Canal.

During his recent Mideast tour, Dulles replied to Egyptian demands with a promise to work out a com- promise formula with President Ei- senhower.

Their Loss Your Gain ‘est losing streaks of the year, mis- Yankees, Braves Hope To End Loss- Streak On Road By BEN PHEGLAR AP Sportswriter The slump - ridden Milwaukee | Braves and New York Yankees packed up their troubles in their old kit bags and hit the road today hunting for something to smile about. The two clubs, jeep in their Jong- placed their winning touch in their own ballyards and they were hop- ing a change of scenery would make a radical difference. The Yankees went to Boston for three games starting tonight. The Braves headed for Cincinnati, where they open a three-game stand with a twilight-night twin bill tonight. Both teams have dropped seven straight. But because of the tight National League pennant race the sudden blackslide has proved con- siderably more custly to the im- mediate standing of the Braves than to the Yankees. Milwaukee skidded from first place, which it held by 2% games over Brooklyn, to second—a full game behind the Dodgers. The Yankees, of course, are still in first place—by -ix games. That’s a bigger margin than they’ve held at the end of the last four seasons when. they won pennants, but it represents a loss of 5% games of their lead over the second-place Cleveland Indians, The Yankees are so much off form that they can’t win on the exhibition circuit either. Before New York’s largest crowd of the season, 56,136, the world champions were overpowered by Brooklyn, 9-0, last night. In the only reguiar game played in either league, the lowly Chicago Cubs stopped the St. Louis Card- inals, 6-2, on thé six-hit Pitching of lefty Paul Minner. The third-place Cardinals had figured to gain half a game on the idle Braves and Dodgers but Minner kept them well under con- trol and didn’t yield a run until Ray Jablonski homered with the bases empty in the eighth. The loss put the Cards 2% games back of Brooklyn and 1% behind Milwaukee. Eddie Miksis and Frank Baum- holtz contributed home runs to the 10-hit Chicago attack against loser Joe Presko, Mike Clark and Ed Erautt. Minner handcuffed Stan Musial, stopping The Man’s hitting. streak at 10 games. Florida Netter Wins Tournament CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. W— A St. Petersburg, Fla., netter is the new champion of the Southern Jun- ior girls tennis tovrnament. Pat Shaffer won the rubber set from Memphis’ Mary Wellford, 7-5, to take the match.

(—An inland sweep of tropical storms today pushed showers toward West Texas and Oklahoma farm areas for which President Eisenhower made available an eight-million dollar drought disaster fund. Downpours, as heavy as 6 inches at Baytown, scattered over East and Central Texas yesterday in time to save pastures, cotton, peaches, late corn and vegetables in many counties. Forecasters expected scattered rain to drift into dried-up West Texas and Oklahoma, But in much of the area a four-year drought has so denuded the soil of plant cover that rain would fall only on sandy wastes. Most of the West Texas wheat crop and much of the cotton is gone. Pastures are crisp and useless, The White House announcement yesterday said relief funds would be allocated to 152 counties in Texas and 40 in Oklahoma. The counties were to be named in a formal Washington announcement today. Meanwhile, Gov. Edwin Mechem of New Mexico appealed to Presi- dent Eisenhower for federal aid in New Mexico’s drought crisis. He Planned to fly to Washington today. In the Senate, Minority Leader Lyndon Johnson (D-Tex) and 12 other senators introduced a bill to Provide money and power to meet disasters such as the Southwest drought, The measure would au- thorize government loans to farm- ers and stockmen at 4 per cent interest. Sen. Johnson told senators he had consulted several govern- ment agencies “‘and they do not know whether they have the author- ity to do the things that must be done.” Secretary of Agriculture Benson, who returned to Washington from a week-end inspection of the Texas drought area, said the first steps in the administration program would be aimed at speeding emer- gency feed to livestock growers. He “Bloodsucker” ‘Racket Revealed MOSCOW —Pravda told t of a gang of millionaire “‘blood- suckers” who raked in enc profits from the resale of me leeches. Soviet doctors still often scribe the old-time leeches to draw blood in the treat- ment of certain ailments. Pravda said two brothers narhed Namedov bought the leeches for the equivalent of 3 to 4 (U. S.) cents. from pickers in Southern Soviet Azerbaidjan, near the Iran- ian frontier. The Namedov’s resold the worms for the equivalent of 30 cents, pocketing the difference. The newspaper called for action against the Namedovs, as g. that although one was the other, with his “bloodsucking” relatives, was still at large, mous ical pre- remedy of Nab Hungry T hief BALTIMORE —An 18-year-old boy who became known to pi the “pork chop burglar’’ after a series of meat thefts here was caught yesterday.
