General Sir

Gerald Templer, has again offered some trenchant views on the future of Malaya as "multi-racial nation." But while lis purpose is beyond reproach, the one question which, as the Manchester Guardian has pointed out, needs be answered in how does the General stand in regard to the means with which to achieve that purpose? The

This "ailiance" still has the appearance of being little more than ર loose coalition to safeguard certain interest. Nor do the latest expressions of eager for "national in- dependence" by the UMNO feaders indicats real Malay confidence that a permanent partnership between Chinese and Malays is being form- ed. Tliere is only one way to remove the dangerous communal cleavage in Malaya and that is to solve the problem at its roots, which are he

BERIA MYSTERY

Soviet

Secret Police Chief "Missing"

FAILS TO

ATTEND BIG FUNCTION

London, July 1.

Lavrenti P. Beria, who became the No. 2 man in the Kremlin hierarchy on Stalin's death, has become the subject of speculation since Moscow released on Sunday, a list of 12 top men which did not contain his name.

Prime Minister Georgi M. Malenkov and 11 other Soviet leaders went to the Bolshoi theatre in Moscow on Friday night to see a new opera called The Decembrists, based on the uprising against Tsarist autocracy in St Petersburg in 1825.

The 11 names comprised all the full members of the Party Presidium except Beria, secret police chief and Interior Minister. They also included the names of two alternate (non-voting) Presidium members and of one Minister, V.A. Malyshev, who has not so far been named as a Presidium member,

The announcement of the visit appeared on the front pages of Pravda, the Communist party newspaper, and Izvestia, the Government newspaper. This was also put out by Tass, the official news agency.

No explanation of Berin's absence from the list was given.

Soviet military authorities today cancelled the curfew imposed in the mid-June riots in East Berlin but left other emergency measures in force. East Berliners were told they could now move freely at any time in their own sector. The Soviet order did not mention traffic between East" and West. But the East German authorities today started issuing, one-day passes for West Germans to enter the Eastern sector of the capital to visit relations and friends or to buy food.
