Thailand Reserves CallForAssembly Holds Up Request For U. N. Session , UNITED NATIONS. N.Y, (INS) —Thailand delayed today formally asking a UN assembly session to discuss sending neutral observers to the indo-Chlna frontier to weigh the Communist threat to her borders. I Thai foreign minister Prince Warn decided to hold up a request for the assembly's recall pending developments on the Geneva truce settlement as its affects neighboring Cambodia and Laos. He said recently that after the July 20 deadline set by French Premier Pierre Mendes-France for a cease fire in Vietnam he would propose an assembly meeting to consider sending a “watchdog'' team to Thailand. Prime Wan said Thailand feared possible Communist aggression from the direction of Cambodia and Laos. He said that only a UN guarantee of the Cambodian and Laotian borders -a measure which the Geneva cease-flri. failed to provide—would be satisfactory to bis government. The Geneva agreement was received with mixed emotion at the UN, where it was looked upon as a preliminary emergency step designed to ward off the fall of the French government and end the elght-year bloodshed In Indo-Chi-na. Vietnamese nationals looked with open disfavor and some resentment at what they termed a “sell-out" of their country, which has been divided at the 17th parallel by the Geneva agreement. They said their own regime would not take the "Vietnam Munich" lying down. Ambassador Tingfu Tsiang of Nationalist China predicted that the Geneva agreement foreshadowed the doom of all Indo-Chlna. He pointed out that Vietintnh' -Communist leader Ho Chi-Minh won all Vietnam north of the 17th paralM<largely with political pre* irnre MerteA Uli the west by Russian foreign mlpistdr V. M, Molo•ov and Red China's premier Chou En-lal. Tsiang added: "This completes tHe first stage of Ho's plan, which took nine years. The second stage, or subversion to the Communists of all Vietnam, will undoubtedly take only a fraction of that time." If you have something to sell or ooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad.

Declares Pad Sets Stage For 3rd World War Vietnamese Source Chqrges Agreement z Makes War Nearer PARIS (INS) —- A Vietnamese Nationalist close to emperor Rao Dai charged today that the Geneva cease-fire agreement hud set the stage for a third* world war "Just as inevitably as Munich laid the path for World War II." The Vietnamese leader. Thom l«e Bong. said the armistice agreement allowed the Communist Viettnlnh to set up an aggression base 1 in North Vietnam and "makes war much nearer.” He predicted the settlement would leatf to world conflict next year. Pham was particularly bitter in his Renunciation of what he called a British policy of “neutralism.” He compared foreign secretary Anthony Eden with his pre-World War ll predecessor. Neville Chamberlain. Chamberlain represented Britain at the Munich parley which carved up Caechoslovakia to Hitler's desire. The,Vietnam spokesman charged the western statesmen at Geneva with shortsightedness add scosed than for InyioAng wgdUurn solution to an A«iln problem." He said the agreement would lead to a loss of western prestige throughout free Asia where "the lesson of Vietnam being sold down the river in an agreement reached over the heads of the Vietnamese people won't be easily forgotten." Pham said the Asian people feel the big powers have sacrificed the small nations in their own interests. He argued that If the French wanted to pull out of Indo-Chlna they should have allowed the Nationalists to fight it out with the Communists using "the equipment the U. S gave the French for that purpose." Pham claimed that the Vietnamese Nationalist army under its own commanders was capable of defeating the Vietininh Reds. The Vietnam representatives at Geneva did not attend the brief signing ceremonies this morning in the Palais des Nations in Geneva. They have premised upset the settlement. Pham said, however, that antiFrench disturbances in Vietnam appeared unavoidable when the armistice terms were announced. The Nationalist leader also- said that Bao Dai considers himself in virtual retirement after giving "full powers" to newly-appointed antiCommunist Premier Ngo Dinh Diem.

Take Steps To Curb Shortage Os Coffee Projects Underway To Help Producers WASHINGTON (INS) - The U. S„ world's leading importer of coffee. £as taken active steps to curb the present shortage and —- it hopes — bring some measure of price relief to American housewives. ; The foreign operations administration reported that U, S. consumption has risen from 19 pounds per capita 20 years ago to 24 pounds last year. Between 1949 and 1953. the U. S. bought an average of 35.8 percent of all coffee exported by producing countries. The average yearly bill was $1,158,000,000. In 1953, the total was $1,500,000,000. Coffee is also the largest single import item of the U. S. economy. It amounts to about ten percent of everything the U. S. buys abroad. Brazil produces more than half of the world's crop, but disastrous frosts have cjit its normal output. In the (I. S.. prices are well above one dollar a pound and demand is expected to soar as the population increases. Against this background. FOA reported that three important projects are now underway in Florida. Hawaii and Costa Rica in an effort to help foreign producers. At the V. S. plant introduction garden at Coconut Grove. Fla., the first edffee seed and plant Exchange center in history is being set up to develop disease - free specimens. The collection — the world's largest—will contain more than 400 varieties of coffee. One of the chief barriers to international exchange of coffee materials has been the fear of importing insects and diseases which might damage local crops. An FOA • sponsored “short course” in coffee production began Tuesday at the University of Hawaii. It ends July 31. Thailand and several Latin American countries have sent representatives. - The U. S. also j>lans to extend its participation in thb Inter-Amer-ican Institute of agricultural sciences ft Turrialba, Costa Rica. I In addition to these projects. ; FOA has sent technicians to Africa, Indonesia and the Philippines. — —, y Cows on test in Indiana D.H.LA. herds in 1953 averaged 378 pounds of butterfat, and an aU-time high of 9.281 pounds of milk.

Wells ordered his men today to c’ear up all present work so they may begin collecting ‘millions" of dollars in unpaid taxes. The millions also has been estimated at |4oo~thousaad and it is unpaid state tax on fire coverage on inland marine policies Owned for 41 years by insurant* companies in Indiana. Approval of collection plans came from an opinion handed down by state attorney general Edwin Steers. Wells said he will seek a declaratory judgment to clarify the order further. The three-fourths of one percent tax on gross premiums on fire insurance on goods in shipment or waeehottMa was ordered by the 1313 genera assembly to provide fluids for the state tire marshal's office. Wells Mid he would undoubtedly face a bitter legal battle if he pressed for all 41 years of taxes and that he may settle for more recent amounts. An attempt also may he made to collect tor the last half of thia year, s He aleo said determining how much each of the 140 companies selling inland marine ineuram-e owes for the fire portion of its policies will he difficult but that u scientifically devised formula will lie used. ’„ “ tr r* ■ .

(INS) — Rika Dyanila. a bosomy, brunette cure for the biggest headache in the three-year history of the Miss Universe beauty contest, arrives In Ixmg Beach today aa the one and only "Miss Greece.” The arrival of the 31-year-old art student with a 35-inch bust, whose troubles trying to enter the U.S. touched off an international tnixup, was like a fresh breeze to contest officials, plagued on all sides by complaints from the 79 other beautiful entrants and even a threatened law suit. i The other “Miss Greece.” Effie Androulakaki. who took Rika's place briefly but voluntarily withdrew from the contest Tuesday, was expected to be at the airport to welcome the girl who is resuming her position as Greece's most beautiful woman. The hassle over which girl would represent Greece In the contest bega"n when the U. S. state department refused to allow Rika to enter this country after she had won the "Miss Greece” title in Athens. She was barred on the ground that she had once illustrated a poetry book written by a Communist author. With What threatened to develop into a tragedy settled, contest officials turned to the task of eliminating 27 girls from the field of state beauty queens vying for the title of “Miss U.S.A.” in the Miss Universe contest. Judges giving the beauties the once over at a musical show in Long Beach municipal auditorium Tuesday night narrowed the field to 20 finalists, but their names were not announced. The names will be revealed sometime today, and the finalists will square off tonight for the “Miss U-.S. A." crown.
