Harry Grunewald
Indicted On 10
Counts Of Lying
WASHINGTON W - Henry W.
(The Dutchman) Grunewald, re
puted Washington wire-puller, was
indicted here Thursday on charges
tot h lied repeatedly in denying
tax-fixing activities under the Tru
man administration.'
The indictment, returned by a
federal grand jury, accused Grune
wald of cammittiM neriury 10
times in recent appearances be
fore the jury itself and in testi
mony during April 1953 before a
House ways and means subcom
mittee investigating tax scanaais.
The multiple charges in the in
dictment carry possible penalties
up to $12,000 in fines and 70 years
imprisonment,
Grunewald, 62, who became an
associate of prominent persons in
the capital and a man of mystery,
made come apearanccs before
' the grand jury late last year when
be was completing a 90-day jail
sentence tor contempt of Congress.
That sentence, which included a
$1,000 fine, resulted from Grunc-
wald's refusal in 1952 to give the
House lnvstigating committee any
thing more than his name when he
answered a subpoena to testify.
The jail term was originally sus
pended. Neuberger Again

Oregon Liquor Control
Board Distributes Funds
More than $15 million was dis
tributed by the Oregon liquor con
trol commission during the ,12
months ending June 30 t h
greatest yearly - allocation in t
20-yoar history,
The commission reported that
S13.0S2.508 went to the .state e&
era! fund, $1,240,276 to Incorpor
ated cities and $914,822 to coun
ties. , ,
The record distribution Is not
matched by a rise in liquor sales,
the commission emphasized. More
money was distributed during the
last fiscal year because less was
required for working capital, and
it was possible to release accu
mulated funds withheld for invest
ment in inventories. Liquor pur
chasers spent only $168,736 more
1 for liquor during the year.
Of the amount distributed $13,
398.298 came from liquor revenue
and sale of purchaser's permits;
$1,185,316 from privilege taxes;
and $654,080 from license fees.

Syngman Rhee

Ostensibly the 79-year-old pres

discuss a new unification policy
with President Eisenhower, since
the Geneva conference failed. And
publicly he still rallies South Ko

cry "Go north."
But an informed government
source says privately Rhee has all
but abandoned hope of seeing this
divided ana war-snauered penin
sula reunited before he dies.

Southwest Asia
Defense Alliance
Will Be Mapped
WASHINGTON 1 .The United
States, Britain and other friendly
nations have agreed to call an
international conference late next
month to write a defensive al
liance designed to protect the
non-Communist lands of Southeast
Asia against Communist conquest.
Highly placed diplomatic - auth
orities said an announcement of
the meeting is expected shortly.
The agreement was reached,
these officials said, among Secre
tary of State Dulles. Undersecre
tary Walter Bedell Smith, British
f oreign secretary Eden and oth
ers at Geneva after it became
certain that the fighting in Indo
china would be ended by ne
gotiated peace with the Commun
ists. Some officials told a reporter
the meeting probably will be held
some place in the Asian area and
that the level of representation-
foreign ministers' or persons of
lesser rank is yet to be deter
mined. The United States originally
proposed that 10 nations make up
the Southeast Asia treaty organi
zation. They were the United
States, Britain, France, Australia,
New Zealand, Thailand, The Phil
ippines and the Indochinese states
of Viet Nam, Laos and Cambodia.
The British wanted to bring in
as many additional Asian nations
as possible, including India, Bur
ma and Pakistan.
The makeup of the projected
meeting remains to be worked out.
If Laos, Cambodia and Viet Nam
are permitted by the Indochina
peace terms to . agree to attend
they will undoubtedly be included.
But even if it is finally decided
they o ,nnot attend. American of-
ficials said privately that the de
fensive alliance can be written to
protect them as well as countries
like Thailand which would be
members.

Cease-Fire Not
Popular Among
Leaders Of War
By JOHN RODERICK
SAIGON. Indochina W The
French and Vietnamese military
commanders in Indochina issued
orders of the day Thursday de
ploring the partitioning of Viet
Nam but they declared the fight
for freedom was not lost.
Gen, Paul Ely, commander-in-
chief and French commissioner
general, told his troops and the
people of Viet Nam the Geneva
c e a s e-fire was an "anguished
peace." He added, however, that
it was the solution "which safe
guards best the major' interests
and the future of the state, the
army and the Vietnamese nation."
Ely said France reaffirmed sol
emnly her policy "aimed at bring
ing Viet Nam as well as Cambodia
and Laos to total -independence."
"With the suppression of the
state of war," he said, 'France
intends to fulfill very quickly this
evolution at the same time as she
aids these countries, notably Viet
Nam, in the immense work of so
cial, economic and national re
construction." Gen. Nguyen Van Hinh, Viet
namese chief of staff, in his order
of the day said partitioning had
not been wanted and "there will
be no peace in our hearts until
the country once again is united."
"The cease-fire is not peace,"
he said, adding "The enemy will
profit by it to prepare hi3 peace
which will place us under the
Communist yoke. Be ever more
vigilant, because we too are pre
paring our peace-one of honor and
true liberty."
