HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON #—French diplo- mats said today France will delay asking U.S. intervention in the Indochina war so long as cease. fire talks continue af Geneva. Rep. Javits (R-Lib-NY), leaving open the question of American in. tervention, said he is conyinced that vigorous and swift action could save Southeast: Asia, Javits is a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, which yesterday heard Adm. Arthur w. < Radford, chairman of the Joint : Chiefs of Staff, outline the Asian military situation in a three-hour secret briefing. Committee members were reluc- tant. to discuss Radford’s testi- mony. Some said it encouraged them. ‘ Javits declined also to comment on the meeting but said he was “convinced that an, American for- eign policy of initiative and vigor, based on a regional organization, can save Southeast Asia and South Asia (India and Pakistan).” He added, in an interview, “We have got to get on our horse and do. it.” i Meanwhile, Britain was reported to have proposed that prospective military talks on Southeast Asia among the Western Big Three, Aus- tralia and New Zealand should be held-at the highest military level— that is, among the chiefs of staff of the five countries. Military representatives of Brit- ain, France, the United States and the two southwest Pacific nations are’ expected to meet: here within the-next two weeks. What they can acéomplish in the absence of over- all*political decisions, however, is unclear. Obviously they can dis- cuss forces available for taking action if their governments decide on action. One key to such a decision, per- haps now the most important one, is ‘a ‘proposition from the French government for U.S.. intervention. The American. government has told the ‘French governments in talks at Paris that such a proposal would be nécessary. as a basis for future American decisions, bearing in ‘mind that this country would act only as one member of. a coalition. Secretary of State Dulles told a tiews conference Tuesday that no such bid had ‘yet come from: the French. French diplomats here say no. bid is to be expected until events at Geneva take a decisive turn one. way. or another. Thei estimate, like that of officials Paris, ig “tat. a showdown: -with the ‘Communists inthe, Geneva negotiations may. be. counted om wit the next 10 days. ~ American’. authorities evidently hope that the, situation may be resolved that quickly, But. private- ly they “point out that Communist negotiators are in Position to drag out the negotiations with new moves from time to time if that is their. purposey, American officials are convinced that the’French government would rather.have some’kind of a cease- fire . agreement. at Geneva than initiate. any) move which would lead to: intervention by the United Stats ‘and “its ‘allies which would fullytnternationalize; the Indochina ware... Congressional source's said, meanwhile, they have reason -to believé.the French soon will re- move Gen. Henri Navarre as com- mander in Indochina. The informants, who declined to be quoted by name, said his most probable successor is Gen. Rene Cogny, commander of the northern forces in Indochina. “Missing” Man Was Just Asleep CINCINNATI () — A Cincinnati man aboard the aircraft carrier Bennington slept right through the explosion. Thomas J, Lorenz, 23, told his parents, Mr, and Mrs. Louis A. Lorenz, by telephone that he was “missing” when his squadron held muster after the explosion. But he wasn’t a casualty. He was asleep. {The parent said their son told tiem he worked late last night in explosion area and then had ission to sleep late. “I didn’t wake up when the ex- sion came,” he said, “because I ep as far away from that area it’s possible to get.” (He was awakened by shipmates 1d joined in the rescue work, ITY TO PURCHASE USED FIRE ENGINE |The city commissioners at a spe: gat meeting last night voted to ‘buy a used fire engine from the vy. } °City Manager Victor Lang re- j-ceived instructions from the com- | mission to negotiate the purchase. | The fire engine was described by Charles Cremata, Fire Chief, as ing in good shape.

Wm. Powell Turns Over New Leaf In Homespun Role William Powell celebrated his thirtieth year as a‘tidtion. picture star during the filming of Univer- sal -- International’s Technicolor “The Treasure of Lost Canyon,” opening Sunday at the Monroe Theatre. The new film also stars Julia Ad- ams, Charles Drake and- Henry Hull and was adapted for the screen from Robert Louis Steven- son’s famous short story, ‘Trea- surer of Fanchard.” Powell started his Hollywood act- ing career in “heavy” portrayals and reached the peak of his film success with his suave, sophisticat- ed characterizations, Long considered one of the screen’s best-dressed. male stars, Big Blimp Leaves For Home Blind Mute Is Honor Graduate. _AULIANCE, ‘Obio un — Richard Kinney, 31,’ a blind tu. dent’ being’, Powell performs a complete turn- | 1% about in “The Treasure of Lost Canyon” wearing the tattered homespun rags of a rustic philoso- pher.
