Tito's Envoy Says War Can Be Prevented Says Disarmament Meeting In London May Play Big Role By RUTH MONTGOMERY WASHINGTON (INS) — Mlh ehal Tito's Yugoslav ambassador confidently predicted today that the outbreak of war "not only can, but will be averted** in the dyna-mite-laden Middle East. Ambassador Leo Mates told this correspondent in an exclusive interview that he sees no easy solution of the Arab-Israeli conflict. But the Communist envoy added that he feels the current disarmament talks in London may play \an important role in helping to dissolve those tensions. Mates said the shipment of Czechoslovakian arms to Egypt was not an overriding’’ factor in the current Middle East flare-up, but volunteered: **l am looking for the day when there will be no shipment of arms anywhere.’* The ambassador declared that changed Soviet taetlca make the threat of a third world war highly improbable, but that Yugoslavia will fight with the West against aggression if Russia steps up the cold war to a hot war. Tito’s ambassador has a gentle sense of humor, which he demonstrated when asked what effect Russia’s downgrading of premier Stalin is having on Communist Yugoslavia. With a boyish grin, he quipped: "We think it was long overdue. We were saying those tkings many years ago—•but the downgrading is better late than never.” - Mates strenuously denied that Yugoslavia is "neutralist” He said his country despises war, but will fight it necessary to resist Russian aggression. Pointing to the daring stand Yugoslavia made against Russia in 1948—which resulted in its expulsion from the, Cominform — he said: "If we had given in then, you would be in quite a different situation today.” The ambassador said that Yugoslavia, heavily burdened with defense expenditures, ardently hopes for disarmament and welcomes President Eisenhower's “open skies” inspection plan. He cautioned, however, that we should not adamantly hold out for one plan, since even a start in that direction would improve the world dimate for peace. Mates pronounced the new developments in Russia "encouraging" and predicted that a disarmament agreement of some type will be reached.. L. 7,• ISSUES APPEAL (Continued tram Fw One) tian commando raids had already been placed before Burns by premier David Ben-Gurion at a meeting last Sunday. They stressed that the key to the situation was now held in Cairo. Hammarskjold sent telegrams to Nasser and Egyptian foreign minister Mahoud Fawxy during the night. Hammarskjold’s "peace mission” will have its beadquarters at Beirut but he apparently will spend little time there during his 30-day factfinding tour. His schedule, described as ’’fluid.” calls for meeting government leaders in Israel, Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia and lebanon. Israeli army spokesmen reported an Egyptian commando was killed and another wounded a'nd captured early today 10 miles northeast of Beersheba, close to the JordanIsraeli frontier. Other commandos were said to have sabotaged water pipelines in the arid region east of the Gata Strip. Israeli officers, who reported the raids, hinted that retaliatory attacks may be in the planning. DISCUSS ELECTRIC - (Continued from Page Onet the objections would probably be minimized with the right contract. Mayor Robert. Cole, in concluding the discussion, stated that before a - definite answer can be given on the city’s plans, the council members and others in the administration must obtain all the information available on the alternatives. He stated, “We are aware of the problem and we want to do something about it but we want to do it right,” and he added that only after considerable study is made will definite plans be formulated and reported. Also a speaker at the Monday noon luncheon was Paul Schmidt, a student of Decatur high school, who spoke on the Adams county civic music association. The next meeting of the group will bo May 14 when the eity administration will report on the proposed sewage disposal action. Another meeting is planned tor June when the eity will report further developments tn the electrical and water supply situations.
