Quiz Crew On Arms Shipment To Guatemala Swedish Ship In U. S., Crew Is Being Questioned WASHINGTON. UP — The Swedish ship which carried Iron Curtain arms to Red-tinged Guatemala has arrived in the Uhited States and U. S. officials are quisling its crew about the mysterious weapons shipment. The state department announced today that the ship. S. S. Alfhem. put in at Key West under orders of its owners. “The captain and other members of the crew are being questioned by U. S. officials concerning the recent cargo of arms which the ship delivered to Guatemala.” the department said. The Alfhem carried some 1,900 tons of weapons from the Polish port of Stettin to Puerto Barrios, Guatemala. The weapons arrived May 15. Meanwhile, diplomatic officials predicted that prompt action will be taken against the Central American country if it’s found that another ship, the French line's S.S. Wyoming, also was carrying arms to Guatemala. They said the action probably would be called for by Guatemala’s jittery neighbors. Such a request is expected to receive hearty U. S. backing. The Alfhem shipment has caused deep concern among top state

department officials and diplomata of many Latin American nations. Secretary of state John Foster Dulles said the arms delivery was carried out under conditions “far from normal." The department said today that "because of these conditions and the great secrecy which surrounded the arrival and unloading of the ship in Puerto Barrios, it haa not been posaibie previously to obtain desired information from the officers of the vessel concerning the transaction.” The department said officers and crew of the Alfhem are cooperating with U. S. officials “on a purely voluntary basis.” Among other things, the United States is trying to find out where the weapons were manufactured, who tried to disguise the weapons as optical and laboratory equipment, and why orders were mysteriously issued diverting the vessel three times before it arrived at Puerto Barrios. Customs authorities are now inspecting the cargo of the French line ship S.S. Wyoming at the entrance to the Panama Canal on suspicion the vessel is carrying weapons bound for Guatemala. Reports from Balboa in the Canal Zone say a shipment of Browning automatic rifles has been found on the Wyoming consigned to El Salvador. A spokesman for the El Salvadoran embassy said the weapons were not for his government. Nicafaftuah ambaAfeador Gulllermo Sevilla-Sacasa has said his government- is studying the possibilities of calling for a meeting of American foreign ministers. Such a meeting would consider whether a threat to hemispheric security exists and, if so, what action should be taken to meet the threat. .. . 4- 11 —", Motorist Is Fined On Speeding Charge Arthur Lloyd Pape, 36, Richmond. pleaded guilty in justice of peace court Thursday night to a charge of speeding and was fined and costs.

Three Barriers Remain To End Indochina War Agree In Principle To Military Talks For Cease-Fire GENEVA. UP—East and west agreed in principle today, at an extraordinary morning conference of experts, to hold military talks in Geneva shortly to draw lines for an Indochina ceese fire. But three sharp disagreements •still remained as a barrier to ending the Indochinese hot war. In a two-hour session, devoted to sorting out conflicting proposals for ending the fighting, experts of the nine nations concerner listed the points of agreement and disagreement. The principal point of agreement called for representatives of the rival military commands to come here to decide how and where to regroup their forces when a cease-fire becomes effective ' |4F But the experts also listed those major differences: 1. The Communists do not distinguish bet ween the three associs ted states of Indochina (Viet Nam, Laos and Cambodia) and want. a simultaneous cease fire throughout Indochina. The West insists that Laos and Cambodia, only slightly touched by the war, be treated separately, 2. The Communists are rigidly demanding a "regrouping” of forces in Laos and Cambodia as well as Viet Nam. The West insiets there are no “rebels” in the two smaller states and demands that the Viet Minh Community “Invaders” be withdrawn from Laos end Cambodia in any cease-fire. 3. The Cotfimuniste demand an end to all American aid to Indochina pre-condition to a ceasefire.” The West says acceptance of that proposal without adequate guarantees and controls against shipment of Chinese and Russian supplies to the Reds would leave the French Union forces as vulnerable as sitting ducks. At present 80 percent of French Union supplies coISe from the United States. A secret meeting of the full conference on Indochina has been tentatively set for Saturday. This afternoon the leading ministers were to turn their attention back to the deadlocked issue of a Korean peace. The Korean session was to hear United States Undersecretary of State Walter Bedell Smith who wfll support a South Korean plan for all-Korean elections, supervised by the United Nations. , A “helping hand" of invaluable aid is rendered drought victims by the partially completed chain of U. S. army corps engineers dams along the Mississippi - MissouriOhio ißiver systems.
