Aldrich Seeks To 'Explain' U.S. Position British Officials Irked At Statement By One Ambassador LONDON (INS) ; -X“O. ambassador Winthrop Aldrich spent an uncomfortable 65 minutes at the British foreign office today, trying to "explain" the Washington government’s position on, Cyprus. While Aldrich was conferring with minister of state Anthony Nutting, the foreign office was issuing a new statement wtjieh said thatthe U. S. offer of its good offices to aid in a Cyprus settlement "supersedes Mr. Cannon’s statement in Athens.” The reference was to the expression of "sympathetic concern” with Greece over Cyprus which U.B. ambassador Cavendish Cannon transmitted Tuesday in Athens. Cannon’t remark provoked a storm of British criticism in government circles and the press. Aldrich was instructed, in reply to a British request, to clarify the U.S. attitude toward Britain's troubled Mediterranean island. The foreign office said it had "no criticism" of the American offer of good offices. But a spokesman frostily declined to say whether the offer was regarded as satisfactory. But there was no doubt that government officials were furious over Cannon's statement. Prime minister Sir Anthony Eden hoped to have Aldrich’s “explanation” when he faced a critical bouse of commons later in the day. Without the explanation, Eden would be faced with the difficult problem of defending the entire principle of the Anglo-American alliance as well as his ending negotiations with the Greek-descended Cypriot Nationalists. Thy Laborite attack on the government^! policy will to made by Aneurin Bevan, the fiery leader of the opposition’s left-wing and a long-time critic of U.S. policy and alleged British subservice to it. Aldrich was to see minister of state for foreign affairs Anthony Nutting at noon. The differences between Washington and London developed after the British learned that the U. S. ambassador in Athens had expressed the "sympathetic concern" of America -over -the recent developments on Cyprus. Greek - descended Cypriots are seeking an end to British rule, and union with Greece. The British press was quick to pick up the statement by Ambassador Cavendish Cannon as a “kick in the teeth" to Britain. There were fears expressed that Cannon’s statement might make it impossible for Britain to stamp out the terrorist activities being carried out by the “union with Greece” movement Begins Exile — MA HE, Seychelle Islands (INS) —Cypriot Nationalist leader Archbishop Makarios arrived at the Seychelle islands today to begin his British-imposed exile. Makarios was accompanied by three other Gree Orthodox Churchmen from the Mediterranean island who were deported with him. The four men were arrested last Friday, flown to Mombasa, Kenya, and then placed aboard the frigate Loch Fada which dropped anchor at this Indian Ocean colony today. The British said Makarios was linked with the violence and gave that as one reason for his arrest and exile on the remote Seychelle islands in the Indian Ocean. Britain has declared the violence must be ended before negotiations for self-government can be resumed. Official circles said the American view that negotiations with Makarios had reached a point where agreement was in sight was incorrect.

Says Civil Defense Plans Ineffective Present Operation Scored By Expert WASHINGTON (INS) - An expert labeled the nation’s civil defense program today as "so ineffective and fragmentary that it is worse than np program at all.” Retired Maj. Gen. Otto Nelson, director of "Project East Rives," bit out at thd’ present operation in. testimony before a house government operations subcommittee. The project was a study of the nation's non - military defenses made at the request of the defense department, the federal civil defense administration and the office of defense mobilization. Nelson, now a vice president of the New York Life Insurance Co., told the subcommittee: "I am sorry to say that ... a most ineffective gesture is being made and . . . the money that is now being spent is largely wasted.” Nelson declared that the nation should "face up" and decide whether to scrap the civil defense program entirely or adopt an effective overall defense program. Nelson stated that an effective plan would be to seek to obtain a balanced 30 per cent of our gross national production outside netropolltan targets. He said it .has been estimated that the present productive capacity of the Soviet Union is about 30 per cent ofMur present level. Nelson said that if the Soviet Union knew that this 30 per cent would still exist even after an atomic attack, it would act as a great deterrent to the outbreak of war. . i

While hundreds of shrubs are available from nurseries, the great variations in soil and climatic factors make it difficult to list species which will thrive anywhere in the state. The Purdue specialist says It Is also difficult to recommend a tree for planting without knowing the surrounding in which it wQI be planted ad the size, shape, leaf desity and color desired. . 7 ■ Two Purdue extension bulletin*, “Ornamental Shrubs” and 452-“ Trees”, list and describe species recommended for planting in Indiana.
