The nine-party conference itself was in recess awaiting outcome of the study. Its next meeting is tentatively set for tomorrow after- noon. While the Indochina parley took the afternoon off, the 19-nation Ko- rea talks were to be resumed at a private meeting. Several delegates were expected to speak, including U. S. Under Secretary of State Walter. Bedell Smith, who was reported ready to throw his support behind South Ko- rea’s proposals for U. N.-super- vised elections throughout Korea. The Indochina experts had be- fore them records of 11 meetings, including all proposals made to date on all aspects of the pro- posed ceasefire. If they can find enough in common to draft a for- mula, a group of military special- ists will try to work out the tech- nical military problems involved. The proposals include the seven- point discussion plans of France and the opposing Vietminh; the four-point plan of Britain on pro- cedure, and the proposals by France, Communist China and the Vietminh on arrangements for as- sembling the opposing forces in special zones. Here is the way the East and West stand on some of the main points: Extent of a cease-fire—France insists it shall apply only in Viet Nam while the Communists call for a simultaneous cease-fire in 221 375 all three Indochinese states—Viet Nam, Laos and Cambodia. Assembly zones for the opposing forces—France says the regroup- ing shall not result in partition of Viet Nam. The Communists call for assembly zones within each of three Associated States, taking into account political, economic and geographic factors. The West says this means partition. Supervision of a cease-fire—both sides agree to international super- vision but the Communists want to set up a neutral nations super- visory commission similar to the four-nation body in Korea. This group has been deadlocked on most questions by Communist veto. International guarantees — the West wants the nine parties to guarantee a cease-fire, individually and collectively. The Communists want to guarantee it collectively. This is interpreted by the West as containing a built-in veto. French Foreign Minister Georges Bidault proposed yester- day that the military representa- tives of the two commands—the Vietminh and French Union forces —meet in Geneva at an early date. He suggested, however, they deal with assembly zones in Viet Nam only. This was not in full agreement with an earlier proposal by Brit- jish Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden that the military representa- | tives deal ‘‘first” with the assem- bly zones in Viet Nam. Some ob- servers felt Eden’s suggestion left the way open for later action in Laos and Cambodia. Bidault also proposed the con- jference itself lay down two prin- ciples: (1) that the establishment of assembly zones must not result jin dismemberment of Viet Nam, and (2) that the aim of regroup- ing must be the re-establishing of peace in Viet Nam.
