Tentative plan
for disarmament
presented by U.S.
Lake Success, May 18,
The United States today presented a skeleton plan for United Nations check-ups on any ́oven-
tual disarmament pacts, complete with an
"escape" clause allowing self-defence action
if United Nations enforcement fails.
The proposal was made by the American delegate
to the working committee of the Conven-
tional Armaments Commission, which the Soviet has, boycotted.
The Commission is continù - Ing to work out, technical measures to be put into effect if and when the cold war
abates enough to allow some measure
world of
disarma-
ment.
The kernel of the American plan is provision for thorough International Inspection to pro- tect against hazards of viola-
tions to a State that might agree to cut down its nan-atomic arms, The inspection agency would consist of:
I. A governing board compos- ed of the 11 members of the
Security Council, which would supervise Inspection work, draw up reports and make recommen- dations for Security Council ac- tion when it detects violations, The decision of the governing board would not be subject to the
selected
{
He told newsmen later that the Sintes WAS studying United methods of inspection in the mill- tary fold and proposals might be put forward later for investigating compliance with disarmaments by check-ups on industry and ha- tional budgets.-United Press.

Escopo rights
The chief new wrinkle in tho American proposal was the spell- Ing out of "escape" rights In line with Charter provisions guaran- teeing United Nations members the right of self-defence.
The clause in question reads: "Action in respect of any viola- tion or evasion should be prima rily the responsibility of the Security Council (where the veto applies).
the
The treaty should provide that, since the purpose of the system of safeguards is to protect
against complying States hazards of violations, failure by the Security Council to correct violations or otherwise enforce the (disarmament) treaty should relieve participating states from their obligations thereunder and permit them such freedom of unilateral or collective action as is consistent with the Charter of the United Nations."
Only skeleton
The U. S. representative, Frank Nash, tokd Commission members he realised the plan was merely a skeleton, which would have to be Aller out with flesh and blood details.
He hoped the United States would also "huild up world peace the vast constructive fields that more firmly and more securely in
are open to you with your ex- technical know- perience and ledge."
"Is such
a task you will find Pakistan among your friends," he said.
The Prime Minister, on a three- weeks' tour of the United States and Canada, had today visited motion picture studios in Holly- wood.
While in Los Angeles, the Be- gym Liaquat Ali Khâgn planned to visit the Walt Disney Studios, the home of Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Pluto.
Mr. Linqunt Ali Khan later told a galaxy of Hollywood stars, their directors and producers at a fim Industry dinner in his honour that Hollywood held one of the world's most powerful keys towards the cnlargement of the mind end heart, which the world needed more today than ever before in its history.
Flims had a tremendous res- ponsibility, to disseminate, not propaganda, but truth and know- ledge and understanding, he told his audience. Reuter,

INSISTING ON STUDY
OF AID SCHEME FOR SE ASIA
Sydney, May 18..
The Commonwealth conference on South and South East Asia will have to postpone its final sassion because of British insistance on fur- thor study of a planned £8,000,000 Com- monwealth pool for 'immediate technical aid. “ The Australian delegation, headed by the External Affairs Minister, Mr. Percy C. Spender, who proposed the plan, had hoped that the con- ference would formally adopt it at a final plenary session tomorrow afternoon.
But the British delegation to the seven-country conterence would lead a request for more study.
The final session would almost certainly be postponed possibly until Saturday-according to this
source,
Earlier today, it was reported that a second rift threatened over Anance because Britain, yester- day reported to have agreed to a compromise proposal became hesitant after seeing the estimates and pressed for further examina- tion before adoption.
This was understood to be a shock to the Australian delega- tion, believed to have expected general agreement after yester- day's compromise.
The Sydney "Dally Telegraph" today estimated how contribu tons on the proposed fund would be split up. It gave these figures:
POP.
WHAT DO YOU WANT IN
Britain and Australia between them: £5,000,000; India: C850,- 000; Pakistan, Ceylon, Canada and New Zealand: £1,850,000.
Sydney newspapers based to- day's reports of a second rift on disagreement over the Australian and British contributions.
SECOND-HAND

Majority back Britain
Several thought that now. because of British reluctance, the conference would not an announce
its declelon
until Balurday. According to informed sources, all the delegations agreed to the plan in principle but the majority favoured the British attitude of careful approach and searching examination before final adop-
tion.
Оп the other hand, those sources said that Australla, Pakis- ton and Ceylon considered it im-

PASSION PLAY RESUMPTION
Oberammergau, May 18.
An eight-hour-long Pussion Play, last enacted before Adolf Hitler in 1934, was presented in this Alpine village today, and half of the 10,000 persons who flocked to see the religious spectacle had to be turned away.
Commenting on the cancella- tion of the Press conference by the British delegation "leader, the Paymaster-General, Lord Mac- Donald, which had been on- nounced for tomorrow afternoon, the same official said, "We think that in all the circumstances it is botter that we should have the last word and so if Lord Mac- Donald holds a Press conference, Heavy clouds, which threaten- which I know he hopes to do, lied but never produced rain, hung will be after the whole proceed- over the mountains as a dis- ings have concluded-possibly on
tinguished audience of German Saturday."-Reuter.
