Eisenhower Rejects Soviet Bid for
Five-Power Talks on Disarmament,
Will Work Through United Nations
WA£>mi\iiTON, OB—President
Eisenhower has told the Russians
the United States will make “fur
ther proposals” on disarmament
at the United Nations. But he has
rejected, for the present at least,
a Soviet proposal for five-power
talks on the problem.
The White House Wednesday
night made public Eisenhower’s
reply to a Nov. 17 message from
Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin.
In that message, Bulganin had
suggested leaders of the United
Stages, Russia, Britain, France
and India sit down together to
seek ways to bring about disarm
ament.
In his reply, Eisenhower wel
comed Bulganin’s “apparent will
ingness” to consider even a lim
ited form of the aerial inspection
which this country has been urg
ing since Eisenhower first pro
posed it at the 1955 Geneva sum
mit conference. Previously, the
Russians had opposed any such
plan.
This was a reference to a Rus
sian statement, issued along with
the Nov. 17 Bulganin letter, in
/which the Soviet leader broached
the idea of creating an aerial in
spection buffer zone extending
500 miles on either side of the
iron curtain.
However, Eisenhower said that
“much to my regret” the Russian
statement “does not signify will
ingness to seek agreement on the
basic element of my Geneva pro
posal of averting surprise inspec
tion of the centers of our military
power.”
But Eisenhower shot back at
B
I what he referred to as the Soviet
j “attempt to dismiss as a ‘slander
l ous campaign’ the world’s indig
nant reaction to Soviet armed
actions against the people of Hun
gary.”
On both the disarmament and
Hungarian matters, Eisenhower
challenged the Russians to work
thru the United Nations.
Eisenhower did not foreclose a
possible big power conference on
disarmament at some future date,
saying:
“I could agree to a meeting
whenever circumstances would
make it seem likely to accomplish
a significant result.”
LONDON, (j3P)—Prime Minister
Eden and French Premier Guy
Mollet disclosed yesterday they
have joined the United States in
rejecting Soviet proposals for a
five-nation disarmament confer
ence. Both said the United Na
tions was the best forum for dis
armament talks now.
Eden told Soviet Premier Bul
ganin Britain believes this would
be a convenient time for another
meeting of the U.N. subcommittee
on disarmament “and I hope the
Soviet government will agree.”
Mollet’s reply, in addition to
rejecting the five-nation confer
ence proposal, contained > sharp
rebuttals to the Soviet stand on
events in Egypt and Hungary.
Mollet declared Bulganin had
described events in Hungary with
“such little objectivity” that the
French could not even comment
on “such distortions of truth.”
Senate Group Staff
To Make Inquiry Into
Big Army Contract
WASHINGTON, Iff)—Sen. Mc
Clellan (DTArk) today ordered his
Senate Investigations Subcommit
tee staff to make “preliminary
inquiry” into a big Army contract
awarded to a firm headed by the
wife of Asst. Secretary of Defense
Robert Tripp Ross.
“It may be perfectly legitimate,”
McClellan told a reporter.
But he added that he believes
the matter merits at least a staff
check on “any possible violation
of the conflict of interest laws.”
Mrs. Claire Wynn Ross con
firmed the awar<J of the contract
yesterday, but said in New York
her bid was $75,000 lower than
the next lowest bid offered.
“My husband has no more to
do with it than you do,” she told
a questioner. “I saved the gov
ernment $75,000 on this bid. I
don’t know whether I’ll make a
nickel or lose a lot of money.”
The Defense Department said
the contract was awarded Nov.
13, 1956, for 249,000 pairs of light
weight cotton wind-resistant trou
sers. It went to Wynn Enterprises,
Inc., of Knoxville, Tenn., and
New York. Mrs. Ross said she has
been president of Wynn Enter
prises since her brother retired
last October, and had served as
treasurer since the firm was
founded in 1944.
She said the company' has had
many government contracts, each
of them won on a low competitive
bid.
PRESIDENT OF AUSTRIA DIES
VIENNA, UP)—'President Thedor
Koerner of Austria died today at
his home. He was 83 years old.
Atrocity Bared
In Budapest
Torture Chamber
SEATTLE, (ff)—A Hungarian
refugee was quoted today as say
ing Communist secret police tor
tured persons in an 'underground
Budapest prison, then ground up
the bodies in huge grinders.
The story was carried by The
Northwest Progress, official news
paper of the Roman Catholic
archdiocese of Seattle and the
diocese of Yakima. The paper did
not name the refugee but said he
was “27, highly intelligent and
cultured” and among those who
were brought here by the Catho
lic relief services of the arch
diocese.
The paper quoted him as saying
hundreds of persons were im
prisoned and tortured in the un
derground prison and “dedicated
Communists” would tell uncoop
erative persons:
“You’ll go to the subway and
the meat grinders.”
The refugee was quoted as say
ing “regular police and even the
Russian soldiers who had been
stationed in Budapest were not
so bad. Many of them helped us.
A pouceman gave me his carbine
and I saw Russians turn over five
tanks to'our men.”
in .omm ssioner’s Court
Fred Bourdon was sentenced to
180 days in the federal jail for

HeWy Trucks Must Pay
New Federal Use Tax
SEATTLE—District Director of
Internal Revenue William E.
Frank today called the attention
of truck operators to the fact that
city streets, state roads, and all
other public ways are considered
to be public highways for pur
poses of the new federal “use
tax” which went into effect last
July 1.
Mr. Frank said this tax applies
to the use on the public highways
in the United States of highway
motor vehicles having a taxable
gross weight of more than 26,000
pounds. Thus, he explained, the
tax applies in the case of these
vehicles even if they are operated
solely within a city, town or other
metropolitan area.

Legend of Dutch Boy
Who Plugged Hole in Dike
CON5HOHOCKEN, Pa., UP—
Here’s a man who now has a
keener appreciation of that legend
about a Hutch boy who thrust a
finger in a hole in the dike and
saved Holland from a flood.
• Charles C. Hansel! spent a
numbing ha^ hour- Wednesday
crouched beside his basement fuel
oil tank with his finger plugging
a leak to stop the flow of inflam
mable liquid. About 35 gallons
already had flooded his cellar,
dangerously close to the flame of
the house heating unit -
HanselTs wife and children
fled to a neighbor’s house and
summoned repairmen.
