mMETITID-" Gicdiewer ‘WASHINGTON ® — President Eisenhower said today the great- est. mistake America could make would be to lose sight of Russia’s ference was in reply to a question as to whether there is any real indication that the Soviet Union's talk of peaceful coexistence means abasic change in attitude. Eisenhower said Russia lately has been talking in a somewhat different tone—apparently mean- ing less belligerently. But everything he has ever read about the Communists makes it clear that their ultimate objective is world revolution and domination of’ a.centrally controlled state, the President added. { Eisenhower's discussion of the international situation was touched by a request for comment on En expressed by Sen. Knowland of California, the Senate Republi- ean leader, that bakery is promot- a icy of peac coexistence ap Frejae horse to lull the Uni- ted States into a false sense of| | security. Eisenhower said you have to. dis- tinguish between. peaceful coexis- tence and just coéxistence. : And, he said, he wanted to ein- phasize that there is no tendency on the part of the United States to take anything for granted in connection with relations with Rus- sia. He pretend porapr dy remain, alert, vi B ‘A reporter asked Eisenhower for comment on “the propriety” of Knowland’s publicly questioning administration foreign policy. The President laughed and told the. newsman he must have’ spent most of the morning thinking that on wd he said that under the con- > the President is charged with the conduct of foreign affairs, and the secretary of state is his chief aide in that field. , ‘That was as close as Eisenhower came to saying what he thought of the. propriety of Knowland's: state- ments. Later in the news conference, a asked Eisenhower wheth- er the Senate majority leader, who is’ elected by party members in the Senate, is not a Senate agent rather than a representative of the executive branch. arg coy Te- he thought that was so. Sombewer also dealt with these other matters: . Red China Debate—differing with the superintendents at West Point and Annapolis, Eisenhower said he would be inclined to trust the judgment of the cadets and mid- shipmen and let them publicly de- pate—to their hearts’ content—the question whether the United States should recognize Red China. The superinendents ruled out debate of, that question which had been posed as. one for college debaters tackle this year. ie Four Medting—The Presi- dend said he would not favor a Big Three meeting with Russia un- til: (1) the London and Paris agreements have been ratified; (2) there is promise that such a conference would have real fruit- fulness; and (3) adequate prepara- tions had been made: for such, a} meeting. He made those remarks | ja commenting on the proposal by French Premier Mendes-France that a Big Four conference be held next May—after ratification of. the London and Paris agreements. The President said emphatical- ly, however, he wanted to repeat that whenever the United States has any real reason to believe any country wants to talk earnestly about peace, the talks will be held. ‘Security—Eisenhower said Secre- tary of State Dulles gave much prayerful study to the John Paton Davies case before deciding to fire the career diplomat for lack of ent. . ‘As for whether the Davies case jndicates any need for overhauling the administration’s security pro- gram, the President said he is studying the matter all the time but is not certain what kind of a move he should make with respect to any re-examination of the pro- gram. He added that nothing will stand in the way of revision of the program if he finds such action is ranted. "Nominations — The President the hope that nomina- tions he has sent to the current special session of the Senate would confirmed in the best interests a the country. Action on one major nomination — that of John Marshall Harlan to the Supreme Court — has already been put off until the new 84th Congress con- venes in January. : The President said the business of government must go on, but that he can understand some’ delay when there are legitimate reasons for controversy. He added, how- ever, that where the controversy is not real or deep, the best inter. ests. of the government and the country can be served’ by Senate confirmation as soon as possible. Bipartisan Conferences — The President said he is looking for- Warns Am ward to conferences with the Democrats, who will control the new session of Congress, but that “he still does not know just what tie mechanics will be and how t bs odmevol4 Be sha.

Stark of Submarine Squadron Four watches as Seaman Larry nell breathes oxygen.—Official Gov't Seeks To Recover $20,000,000 WASHINGTON (#—The govern- ment today filed a suit asking 20 million dollars from Aristotle Socrates Onassis, the Greek ship- Ping tycoon, and his associates for alleged illegal use of American war surplus vessels. Deputy Atty. Gen. William P. Rogers announced the action was brought in U.S. District Court at New York City. The government seeks the earn-| ings of 16 ships obtained by the Onassis group from the U.S. sur- plus fleet in the years 1948 through 1951, Under the law, the surplus ves- sels could only be sold to bona fide American citizens. The government now has crimi- nal indictments pending against Onassis and his associates, charg- ing fraudulent acquisition of the vessels through misrepresentation that the purchasing corporations were controlled by American in-| terests, and so were eligible to buy the ships. In today’s: recovery suit, the Justice Department charges that when the 16 ships were bought, actual .control of the purchasing corporations was in the Onassis group, all of whom were aliens. The court was asked to enter an order declaring that the title to these vessels and all of their earn- ings since they left the surplus| fleet are the property of the United States. frequently such meetings will be held. Eisenhower said he will seek opportunity to find out whether he and the Democratic leaders are in agreement on various mat- ters, but that each case will have to be decided on its merits.

Workmen Try To Move Boat From Old Tomb CAIRO, Egypt (® — Workmen whose ancestors sweated to build | the Pyramids today lifted a 20-ton | limestone slab sealing off a wood-| en boat buried at one of those royal tombs about 5,000 years ago. A crowd of liplomats, scholars, | officials and newsmen crowded | forward for a glimpse of the prow of the funeral vessel or solar boat | of the Pharaoh Cheops, resting in a narrow chamber in the shadow of the Great Pyramid. Shaped from wood to form a stylistic flower, the prow had been detached. It lay on the deck along with a perfectly preserved 300-foot coiled rope, planks and pieces of | rotten linen. Many of the spectators said they could scent a faint aroma arising from the cedar woodwork, originally brought from Mt. Leban- on. Witnesses collected in a wooden shed at the base of the Great Pyra- mid while chanting workers with pulleys lifted the stone slab, one of 42 forming the ceiling of the boat chamber. ‘ When the slab was pulled away they could look down to see the front end of the craft nestling in a chamber that would barely ac- commodate it. Kamal el Mallakh, the. Egyptian who discovered the chamber last spring, said the boat is longer than was previously believed. The length of the chamber indicated the boat would be 110 feet long, but if the detached prow was re-) placed the boat would be about 120 feet long. Similar boats have been found in | the past, but Mallakh said this| was the biggest and oldest yet | discovered.

The letter said that since Argen- tina was founded it “always has counted on the contribution of the church toward its moral and spir- itual greatness. . . . The nation has seen development in its religious and cultural life in an atmosphere of peace which is necessary always for the good of the spirit and the tranquility of the populace.” The letter asked Peron to let the episcopacy know the detailed charges against the bishops and Priests named ‘so ecclesiastical superiors may be in condition to verify the objectivity of the charges and the degree of respon- sibility in order to adopt measures that may apply in conformity with the law.” Publisher Is Arrested Today By Turkish Gov't ISTANBUL, Turkey (®—The gov- ernment:today arrested Bedii Faik Akin, copublisher of the opposition Istanbul newspaper Dunya, The paper has been strongly critical of the government minister super- vising press affairs. The public prosecutor accused Akin of violating a law making it a criminal offense to attack a per- son’s honor or dignity, or delve into a person’s private life without his consent. The maximum penal- ty on conviction is 4% years in prison. The target of Dunya’s criticisms was Minister of State Mukerrem Sarol. One article claimed the min- ister, as a member of a housing cooperative, had obtained a license for scarce building materials far in excess of the cooperative’s needs. Sarol denied the accusation. About 20 opposition newsmen have been prosecuted in recent — under Turkey’s strict press jaws. MAN SLAYS SELF WEST PALM BEACH (®—Police called the death of a 22-year-old man “apparent suicide” today.
