Lawmakers See No Immediate New Effort By Britain And The USS. To Protect Indochina And Her Neighbors From Red Encroachment By JACK BELL ‘WASHINGTON (# — Lawmakers found few tangible signs today in a statement by President Eisen- hower and Prime Minister Church- ill of any immediate new Ameri- can-] effort to save Indochina and her neighbors from the Reds. Churchill said here on his de- parture for Ottawa yesterday that his five-day talks with Eisenhower had shown the unity of English- speaking peoples is “unbroken and unbreakable.” “I am sure that if we hold to- gether, with all those who come to help us from every land and clime, then we shall be able not only to save ourselves but also to preserve the cause of freedom in the world,” he declared. ‘There was in Congress general agreement with this and approval of the Eisenhower-Churchill state- ment of principles issued shortly before Churchill left. But some sen- ators professed to see more im- portance in the remark of British Foreign Minister Eden that the conference of leaders had laid the foundations “for the work we have yet to do.” Sen. George of Georgia, senior Watch TOMORROW'S CITIZEN For Announcement NAVARRO’S $8th Anniversary For Home or Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said in an interview he believed that “some good was accomplished by the con- ference, but the British haven’t changed their minds.” George added he thinks the Brit- ish remain unconvinced that united action is possible or desirable in Southeast Asia and are resigned to French concessions to the Com- munist-led rebels in Viet Nam. Sen. Gore (D-Tenn) commented that the Eisenhower - Churchill statement of principles “leaves completely unanswered the press- ing problem of the developing fall of Viet Nam behind the Iron Cur- tain.” Churchill and Eisenhower said in a statement *Monday they had agreed to “press forward’? with plans for a free nation alliance in Southeast Asia. But indications were that this would be prelimin- ary planning only, and that the British were sticking to their po- sition that no formal steps should be taken until the outcome of French-Communist peace talks on Indochina. The United States had taken the position that an international con- ference to draw up such an al- liance’ should .be called at once. Further discussion on plans for a Southeast Asian anti-Communist alliance was expected at a meet- ing of the Anzus Council—an or- ganization created by the 1951 Mu- tual Defense Treaty among Au- stralia, New Zealand and the United States. The meeting was requested by ‘Australia’s minister of external affairs. Richard G. Casey, whose government is press- ing for speed in bringing a South- east Asian alliance into existence. Secretary of. State Dulles. was due to attend for the United States. Commercial Use... We Are Prepared To Furnish You With Clean, Pure Cube » Crushed ICE Thompson Enterprises, Inc.

In their statement yesterday, Ei- enhower and Churchill said their two countries will continue “in in- timate comradeship” to work for a just world peace. They held out “the hand of friendship” to na- tions which by ‘‘solemn pledge and confirming deeds” show they want peace. Promising not to entertain any treaty which would prolong the bondage of captive states, the two leaders pledged “every peaceful means to secure the independence of all counrties whose people de- sire and are capable of sustaining independent existence.” Eisenhower and Churchill said the cause of peace would be ad- vanced by “general and drastic reduction, under effective safe- guards, of world armaments of all classes and kind.” They promised continued support to the United Nations and urged the establishment of regional as- sociations of nations, pledging aid in such enterprises “‘when desired by the people of the affected coun- tries.” Sen. Cooper (R-Ky), a former U. S. delegate to the United Na- tions, said this statement on re- gional associations seemed to him to keep open the road to a pos- sible future Pacific pact such as has been suggested by Dulles. But the Kentucky senator said that as he interprets the language, there is a condition that the coun- tries directly affected must share the initiative in formation of any such association. “While the leaders have undoubt- edly reached a closer understand- ing, any accomplishments in this field lie ahead of us,” Cooper said, Truman Reported “Better” Despite Restless Day KANSAS CITY ™ — Harry S. ‘Truman’s condition was reported as “better” last night although he was described as somewhat tired after a restless day. The former President’s recovery from an emergency operation June 20 has been hampered by an in- testinal inflammation. His recovery appeared highly satisfactory for a few days after his gall bladder and appendix were removed in the op- ertion. Then he was harassed by secondary infections and a hyper- sensitivity to drugs. Yesterday, however, Dr. Wallace Graham, his personal physician, said he was no longer in a critical stage and that his condition is now “fair, but guarded.” In last night’s report, a Research Hospital spokesman said the 70- year-old Truman had been some- what nauseated and restless but “as a total picture for the day he was perceptibly better.” The hospital report also said “the enteritis (intestinal inflammation) has been somewhat aggravating” and “he kas been bothered for short periods intermittently with hiccups.” Read Citizen Daily “. «+ And this is the man- pany — one of the best friends I've ever had.” Key West 2-5681 524 Southard St. Trial Of Actress Wednesday, June 30, 1954 ew KEY WEST CITIZEN Marie McDonald Set For Oct. 4 BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. wy — Trial of actress Marie McDonald on misdemeanor charges of hit- and-run driving while under the in- fluence of a drug has been set for Oct. 4. Through her attorney, Miss Mc- Donald, 30, pleaded innocent yes- terday and requested the jury trial, which was granted by Municipal Judge Henry Draeger. The attorney, G. Bentley Ryan, introduced an affidavit from the shapely actress’ physician that said: ‘She has been ill for a number of years, suffering from an active duodenal ulcer and a neuro-muscu- lar condition.” Miss McDonald was arrested June 21 after an auto accident. She told police she had taken two nembutol and four seconal tablets which her physician had pre- scribed. Shark Catches Stunt Man SANTA MONICA, Calif. W — Movie stunt man Frank Donahue has been busy all week catching sharks. Finally one caught him. With his bare hands he caught more than 60 sharks off Santa Monica Bay, only to find that they were too small. He tossed them all back since he needed a fish at least seven feet long as a wrestling partner in a movie scene. Yesterday he jumped off his boat and swam around. Sharks swam close as usual. Donahue grabbed the tail of the nearest one and flipped it onto the boat deck. Then he climbed aboard for a look. The boat rocked, Donahue slipped and fell against the flopping shark.
