MOTORIST ARRESTED A Valsetz motorist Calvin B. Mc Cown, was arrested ; by Sales police Saturday night on a charge of reckless driving. He was held in lieu of $150 bail. Dulles words sharpened an im pression here that if the Reds would modify some provisions principally the proposals for in troducing European- Communist satellite forces into South Korea and for settling the final fate of some POWs at a political confer ence the United States and its Allies would quickly agree upon the Red plan. ' After his news conference Dulles made a statement for broadcast ing and newsreel release which could be directly quoted: 'Peace With Honor "As I have said many times," be declared, we want peace in Korea if it is a peace with honor. Whether or not the armistice terms will mean that kind of a peace is still under discussion between the representative of the two sides in Korea, under guidance, of course, as far as we are con cerned, from Washington. "The Communists made propo sals day before yesterday which we are carefully studying. It is obvioui that they will require elucidation and perhaps modifica tion before they will be acceptable to us as compatible with peace with honor, but that is a matter which we are going into and which will be developed in further dis cussions which will be taking place in Korea over the coming days. To Leave on Asia Tour Dulles met with reporters at the State Department at noon a few hours before he left on i 20-day tour of the Middle East and South Asia. In a statement and in re sponse to Questions Dulles made these principal points about the critical Far Eastern situation: 1. The United States has ad vised Thailand that it would be pleased to see that country cite to the United Nations the threat to Thai territory caused by the invasion of neighboring Laos by Indochinese Communist forces. 2. The United States is contin uing to talk with the French and Indochinese governments (Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam) about the possibility of action by France to put the invasion itself before the U. N. The French government is reluctant to do this. Crrfflans Maa Relief Planes 3. C-119 "Flying Boxcars" which were rushed to Indochina this week to strengthen the French air lift reinforcing troops in Laos are being flown by Anierican civilian crews who were hired by the French government in the Far East 4. There is nothing in the armis tice negotiations in Korea which either states or implies that it wculd be appropriate to bring Communist China into the United Nations: 5. United States aid to Indo china, the onset of monsoon weather, or the Korean truce talks may be responsible for Commu nist retreats in Laos. Dulles said the puzzling situation was not suf ficiently clarified yet to enable the United States to make a positive evaluation. 3 Northwest Men on List Of Prisoners DETROIT (fl New hope for the safety of prisoner-of-war sons came to 62 more families, includ ing three in the Pacific Northwest Saturday .
