INSPECTION PROPOSAL:
India Rebuffs Soviet on Laos
.1i
By The Associated Press
GENEVA-Indian delegate V.
K. Krishna Menon warned the In-
ternational Conference on Laos
yesterday against approving the
Soviet plan for enforcing the peace
plan in Laos-a; plan with inter-
twined vetoes built in.
"We must have no veto arrange-
ments," Menon said.
He urged the conference not to
tamper with the present rules
governing the Indian-Polish-Ca-
nadian international control com-
mission which was given the job
of enforcing peace by the 1954
Geneva conference on Indochina.
Blasts Chinese
Menon also took a swipe at the
Chinese Communists by declar-
ing that this conference should
devote itself to the problem of
Laos alone. Chinese Foreign Min-
ister Chen Yi has brought in oth-
er Southeast Asian problems, in-
cluding South Viet Nam.

BANGKOK -- Vice-President
Lyndon B. Johnson met with Thai
Foreign Minister Thanat Khoman
yesterday, and tried to strengthen
working relationships between the
United States and that Red-
threatened country.
Thai Foreign Minister Thanat
Khoman said after Johnson left:
"From a physical or material
point of view I think it is reason-

able to say the changes must come
later. But from the psychological
point of view a great deal has
been accomplished.
"The Vice-President's trip was
meant to be an encouragement to
us-a gesture to show that the
United States shares our interest
in developments here. I have hopes
that the material changes will
come as soon as possible."
The Thai press quotes Prime
Minister Sarit Thanarat as say-
ing, "We will get more military
aid but we have to discuss the
conditions." He described himself
as "partly satisfied" with the re-
sults of Johnson's visit.
Johnson also met with Prime
Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of In-
dia, and discussed problems of In-
dia's third five-year development
plan. But no commitments came
out of the four-hour talk.

0 HOUSE
A spokesman for the Indian
delegation told newsmen that
Menon, in discussing Gromyko's
proposal, said:
"We feel the provisions of the
1954 agreement (on Laos) to be
adequate and that they do not
merit any substantial change.
'Substantial Conflict'
"If there is a substantial con-
flict of opinion it can always be
referred to the co-chairmen (Brit-
ain and Russia) and then to the
conference itself.
"We must not get into a tangle
on this issue."
* Menon told the conference the
control .commission is receiving
the cooperation of Pathet Lao as
well as Boun Oum's royal govern-
ment and Prince Souvanna Phou-
ma's neutralists.
Laos Cease-fire
Leaders of these three groups
are having political as well as
cease-fire talks in a thatched-roof,
mud-floor schoolhouse deep be-
hind the rebel lines in Laos.
The talks in Laos were in abey-
ance. On Friday the three groups
will meet again at Ban Namone
to begin discussions on the possi-
bility of forming a coalition gov-
ernment.
Menon said India would go on
providing men to work as peace in-
spectors in Laos.
Economic Aid
Gromyko's 13-point plan pro-
vided that the control commission
could investigate violations of
Laos' neutrality only when ordered
to do so by the co-chairmen of
the conference-Britain;and Rus-
sia. Unless Russia agreed there
would be no investigation.
The commission also would
"conduct its work under the gen-
eral guidance and supervision of
the two co-chairmen"---another
veto provision.
Senate Bill
On Housing
Set for Vote
WASHINGTON (M)-The Senate
Banking Committee added an ex-
tra $200 million to President John
F. Kennedy's $4.79 billion all-pur-
pose housing bill yesterday and
sent it to the floor.
Sen. Homer E. Capehart (R-
Ind) served notice he will contest
some of the key provisions, includ-
ing a controversial plan for gov-
ernment insured 40-year, no-
down-payment mortgage loans.
Sen. John Sparkman (D-Ala),
chief architect of the huge and
complicated legislation, predicted
it will be passed as written. The
committee vote was 10-5, with
Republicans and Democrats mixed.
Vote Next Week
Sparkman said - the measure,
one of Kennedy's top five priority
bills, probably will be taken up in
the Senate next week.
In a stopgap move, the House
completed congressional action on
a resolution giving the YFHA an
additional $1 billion in mortgage
insurance authority and sent it to
Kennedy..
The agency has about run out
of its insuring authority, which
would be renewed without limit
under the general housing bill.
Do Two Things
The $200 million frosting which
the Senate Banking Committee
put on the housing bill cake would
do two things:
1) Provide $100 million to begin
a program of loans to cities to
build or modernize mass transit
facilities. Some city officials have
said this would be only a drop in
the bucket.
2) Add another $100 million to
a program of low interest loans
for college dormitories, raising the
total authorized to $1.35 billion.

Resignation
Rebel Leaders Sure
Of U.S. Recognition
SEOUL, Korea (R)) - Military
rule settled firmly on South Korea
today, with the government of
Premier John M. Chang and Unit-
ed States opposition swept aside.
American authorities here took
strong stands against the military
coup within hours after it broke
Tuesday. But the junta leaders
won the vital backing of all South
Korea's armed forces and the 61-
year-old Premier formally resign-
ed yesterday.
A 30-man committee was named
to run the country. It is made up
of military men headed by Lt.
Gen. Chang Do-Young, 38, Army
chief of staff.
Recognition Assured
Although the United States Em-
bassy here and the American
chief of the United Nations Com-
mand, Gen. Carter B. Magruder,
publicly opposed the military take-
over, United States sources said
American recognition of the new
regime is assured.
By getting Chang's formal res-
ignation and keeping President
Yun Po-Sun on as chief of state,
they said, the military junta re-
solved any- issue of recognition.
Official diplomatic links are with
the chief of state, even though in
South Korea this post is chiefly
ceremonial.
There were indications the
United States, which has ear-
marked $253 million for South Ko-
rea's 1961 budget, would press for
an early return to civil control.
Its long standing policy has been
to stress the development of dem-
ocratic processes for South Korea.
Promise Elections
Although the junta promised
when possible to turn the gov-
ernment over to what it called
conscientious politicians, none of
its statements mentioned whether
elections are to be held.
American authorities here were
said to still feel that the proper
position had been taken in stand-
ing behind a legally elected gov-
ernment against a military seiz-
ure of power.

VIENNA-Under tentative plans
President John F. Kennedy will
arrive here June 2 and Premier
Khrushchev June 3, Austrian of-
ficials said last night.
The same timetable has Kenne-
dy leaving Vienna June 4 and
Khrushchev June 5. This would
allow the two leaders no more
than two days to talk.
The dates, on a provisional bas-
is, were sent to the Austrian for-
eign office by the Austrian Em-
bassy in Washington.
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -
Space officials have scheduled two
Project Mercury space launches
next month-a second manned
suborbital test and the orbiting
of an .unmanned spacecraft-it
was learned reliably yesterday.
The orbit attempt, which could
come as early as June 12, is to
send a Mercury space capsule
once around the world and return
it to earth in a repeat of a shot
which failed April 25.
The Redstone-boosted suborbi-
tal test, similar to the pioneer
flight of Alan B. Shepard, Jr. on
May 5, is scheduled for about June
20.

WASHINGTON - The Senate
yesterday rejected 95-0 adminis-
tration pleas that it .drop an 8
per cent ceiling on interest rates
that can be charged ultimate bor-
rowers under President John F.
Kennedy's Latin American devel-
opment program.
The Senate stood by its guns
despite appeals from Secretary of
the Treasury C. Douglas Dillon
and Acting Secretary of State
Chester Bowles that the ceiling was
so "rigid" it could have a damag-
ing effect on the purposes of the
program.
LONDON-Prime Minister Har-
old Macmillan's conservative gov-
ernment last night survived two
days of acrimonious debate and
won a vote of confidence for its
handling of foreign afafirs.
The House of Commons reject-
ed by 277-201 a Labor amendment
which sought to censure the gov-
ernment.
Laborites criticized the govern-
ment for refusing to cancel the
courtesy visit of a British warship
to Portugal's Angola during trou-
bles there, failing to base its for-
eign policy on the UN Charter,
failing to promote cooperation be-
tween the Communist and West-
ern worlds, and being hopelessly
muddled on the question of enter-
ing the European Common Mar-
ket.
Administration
To Aid Schools
That Segregate
WASHINGTON (A) - The ad-
ministration offered renewed as-
surances yesterday that federal
school grant funds would not be
withheld from any state because
its schools were racially segregat-
ed.
Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore),
floor manager for the $2.55 billion
school aid bill, read to the Sen-
ate a letter from Secretary of Wel-
fare Abraham A. Ribicoff on the
point.
"In my opinion, neither the sec-
retary nor the commissioner (of'
education) would have such au-
thority," Ribicoff wrote.
The letter appeared designed to
head off a floor fight over an
amendment by Sen. Herman E.
Talmadge (D-Ga) to bar the with-
holding of the grant funds from
any states.
Meanwhile, efforts of Senate
leaders to limit debate and speed
a final decision on the bill were
balked.
Ribicoff offered similar assur-
ances when he testified at Senate
hearings on the legislation.
