Soviets Ask Big Four Declaration
On Mid-East; U.S. Doubts Sincerity
WASHINGTON (M)--The United States, acting jointly with Britain
and France, yesterday rejected a Russian proposal for a Big Four
declaration covering the Middle East.
The American government said the great nations should not
"arrogate to themselves decisions on matters of vital import" to the
Middle Eastern countries.
Good Faith Questioned
In a note delivered in Moscow and made public here, the United
States questioned Russia's good faith in proposing on February 11 that
the three Western countries join Moscow in a six-point statement of
principles regulating their Middle Eastern policies.
The American note told the Soviets bluntly that "there is cause
for considerable doubt as to the seriousness of the Soviet government's
IPC:
Mideast Oil
Flows Again
To Europe
LONDON (A')-Middle East oil is
flowing toward Western Europe
again after a four-month stand-
still.
A London spokesman of the Iraq
Petroleum Co. announced here
that pumps started pushing oil
across Syria to the Mediterranean
yesterday. The oil will begin reach-
ing the coast terminal at Baniyas
s today.
These supplies by-pass the Suez
Canal, still closed to shipping, and
are loaded on tankers at Baniyas
for shipment to Western Europe,
Flowing
A broadcast from the British-
protected island of Bahrein, in the
Persian Gulf, said oil had started
flowing to the refinery on the
island from Saudi Arabia Satur-
day.
These were the first positive ad-!
vances toward relieving the oil
shortage that hit Western Europe
at the time of the Suez invasion
by British and French forces. Iraqi [
oil was then cut off from the West
because pipeline installations
across Syria were blown up by the
Sy'rian army. Saudi Arabia banned
oil exports to Britain and France.
However, the resumed pipeline
flow will be at a reduced rate for
some time.
Pumping Begun
An IPC spokesman explained:
"The 30-inch pipeline to Baniyas
is the newest of the three and
therefore was in better condition
and needed less repairs. We have
heard officially that pumping
through this pipeline actually has
started."
The other IPC pipelines, a 16-
inch and a 12-inch, run to Tripoli
on Lebanon's Mediterranean coast.
They should be operating again
"within a day or two," the spokes-
man said. These also bypass Suez.
The company is owned by
British, French, Dutch and Ameri-
can capital.
The London spokesman said: "It
will take a long time to get the
pipeline repaired completely. It
may be over a year before we get
back to the normal rate."
Edgar Bonnet
A team of 20 engineers had been
working on repairs since last Fri-
day.
Oil shipped to Bahrein from
Saudi Arabia normally is shipped
through the Suez Canal.
There was no definite indication
when that waterway would be re-
opened to tankers. However, a
Suez Canal authority spokesman
} said yesterday the United Nations
salvage fleet will begin work todN'y
on the tug Edgar Bonnet, one of
the two major obstructions still
sunk in the canal.
The spokesman said ships of up
to 500 tons will be allowed to go
through the canal today.
The Egyptians have been wait-
ing for Israeli troops to get out of
the Gaza Strip and the Gulf of
Aqaba area.
The Canal might be opened to
ships of the largest tonnage in a
month or less

*invitation to the government of
the United States to join it in
cooperation in the Middle East."
It said Soviet attacks on United
States Middle Eastern and Eastern
European policies, almost simul-
taneously with the delivery of the
Soviet proposal to the Western
powers, "suggests that the U.S.S.R.
neither desires nor expects such
cooperation."
Ready To Cooperate
The United States reply was
worked out in conferences with
British and French officials here
during the last month. Britain and
France delivered similar notes in
Moscow today. State Department
officials said they made the same
main points, but were not identi-
cal in wording.
The United States, the American
note said, is basing its Middle East
and other foreign policies on the
United Nations charter and is
"ready to cooperate with any coun-
try, great or small, sincerely dedi-
cated" to carrying out United Na-
tions principles.
It said it thus supports those
principles in the Russian-proposed
declaration which conform with
the UN charter. It named these as
"peaceful settlement of disputes;
non-interference in internal af-
fairs; respect for sovereignty and
independence."

TEAMSTER HEAD:
Beck Hits Investigating r
Plan
SEATTLE (M)-Teamsters Union
President Dave Beck yesterday
criticized sharply the conduct of
the Senate's special committee in-
vestigation of alleged labor rack-
ets, but said he would appear as a
witness without awaiting a sub-
poena.
In his criticism of committee
procedures, in a Post-Intelligen-
cer interview, Beck declared:
"Political Action"
"It is my impression that the
hearing in Washington is not at
all in harmony with any judicial
atmosphere. It is colored. It has
all the semblance of political ac-
tion, and I personally cannot un-
derstand giving credence to testi-
mony by prostitutes, gamblers,
narcotic agents -- such as have
been giving testimony against our
people in the Washington hear-
ings."
Beck also charged the Secretary
of Labor James Mitchell's with-
drawal of his credentials to the
International Labor Organization
convention in Europe was "in ef-
fect a pre-judgment of me and it
was politically inspired."
Tintinabulations
He labeled a statement about
him by James B. Carey, an AFL-
CIO vice president and one of his
bitterest critics, as "the tintinabu-
lations of an automatic mouth."
Beck made his statements in an
exclusive interview with the Post-
Intelligencer. Beck was not avail-
able for interview to other news-
men following his return from
Europe Sunday night ahead of
schedule.
Beck said he flew home from
Europe ahead of schedule because
Mitchell had withdrawn his cre-
dentials as an American delegate
to the international labor session.
McClellan Says . .
WASHINGTON ()-Sen. John
McClellan (D-Ark) said yesterday
he has a message from President
Dave Beck of the Teamsters Un-
ion indicating "ahmeasure of re-
servation" about how much coop-
eration Beck may give to Senate
rackets investigators.
Sen. McClellan said Beck, just
back from Europe, sent his word
by messenger that he plans to get
a physical checkup and consult
with tax attorneys before deciding
"what materials or records he
will submit" to the investigators.

TuitionRates
University of Detroit has taken
the first step in what may prove
to be a statewide hike in tuitions.
The privately-supported school
gave the necessity "to continue to
provide the highest possible edu-
cation" as its reason for a general
tuition raise of about $50.
A news release called the $50
amount "the same tuition in-
crease that legislators have been
urging at tax-supported universi-
ties in Michigan."
