would say only, "everything, will
be clear today."

ment after U Thant handed them
his secret formula on the one
remaining issue.

Announcing his decision,, Walk-
er said he will forego his retire-

year in order to be free as a civil-

munist infiltration.
The General, a key figure in
the controversy over how much
freedom military men should have
to speak out against Communism,
announced his decision in a state-
ment to a Senate Armed Services
subcommittee.
Removed from Command
"I have been removed from
command of the 24th Division,"
Walker said.
"My career has been destroyed
in its usefulness to my country. I
cannot accept retirement with its
emoluments and benefits. To do
so would be a compromise with my
principal.
"I take leave of military duty
with a heavy heart. I must find
other means of serving my coun-
try in the time of her great need,
in order to pursue the dedication
of a lifetime.

No Breakthrough
Seen for Cancer
WASHINGTON (M-A note of
"cautious hopefulness" was sound-
ed at a big conference of cancer
specialists yesterday. But the pub-
lic was told that no "break-
through" is in sight m the fight
against the disease. More than'
1,000 physicians and surgeons
gathered for a two-day review of
methods in treating cancer with
chemicals.
Progress has been attained since
the last conference two years ago,
experts said. Work is being pushed
in testing drugs on animals, and
cautiously introducing promising
ones into treatment of human
beings.

Erich Mende.
After eight hours of debate be.
hind closed doors, the Free Demo-
crats announced that acceptance
of the original terms was a nec-
essary condition for their support
of Adenauer.
The announcement gave every
indication that the Party was de-
termined to stand fast against
moves to cut down its influence in-
a new government.
Speculation sprang up immedi-'
ately that Adenauer was in real
trouble after 12 years in office,
during which he has run West
Germany almost single-handedly.
Economics Minister Ludwig Erhard
was being talked of as a possible
successor to end the political dead-
lock.

WASHINGTON-Indian Prime
