Burmese Premier To Visit Red China RANGOON. Burma W Pre mier U Nu is due to leave Nov. 29 for a visit to Red China. He will be returning a visit Chinese Premier Chou En-Lai made to Rangoon last June. ' En route the Burmese leader plans to break his trip at Hanoi as India's Prime Minister Nehru did on a similar journey to Peiping last month to confer with Presi dent Ho Chi Minn of Communist ruled North Viet Nam. ) 5. Conclusion of a Southeast Asian defensive alliance, designed to .commit the strength of the Western powers to stop the flow of Communist might in that quar ter of Asia. i ' Reich Agreement 6. Final agreement on a new plan for rearming West Germany, giving it sovereignty and making it a full partner in the North At lantic alliance. ,The box score on the other side the record of things which went wron? includes these items: "L The. failure of Secretary of State Dulles, against1 French un certainty, to get negotiations start ed on a Southeast 'Asia alliance in time to strengthen France's bargaining' position at the Geneva conference on an Indochina peace last spring and summer. 2. The split between Dulles on one hand and Britain's Foreign Secretary Eden and France's Pre mier Mendes-France on the other over the kind of peace which could be made in Indochina. ! Dulles washed his hands of the settlement which ' gave Northern Viet .Nam to the Reds, although he was compelled to use it as a basis for trying to build new strength in the areas of Indochina which remain non-Communist. 3. A loss of United States in fluence in Saudi-Arabia following the death of old King Ibn Saud and the succession of his son. Kind Saud. - Moral Breakdown This usually is attributed to kind of moral breakdown- in the Saudi ruling group with increasing concern for personal profit j and decreasing concern for nationalist interest But' it has been aggra vated by American support for the state of Israel, a sore point with Arab countries. 4. The growth of neutralism in South Asia. Prime Minister Neh ru's visit to Red China symbolized the i faith of many Indians ! and people in countries like Indonesia and Burma that they can I live safely in a middle position be tween the Communist bloc and the bloc led by the United States. Ameriban officials think these Asians are playing a dangerous and deplorable game. i , 5. The growth of the idea of co existence in Western Europe. Con trary to the view of American of ficials many Europeans appear to be convinced that they can: live and trade with the Russians with out too much difficulty in a con dition approaching normal peace. 6. Anti-Amencanism in Japan and highly critical attitudes to ward the United States in other friendly Far Eastern countries, notably Kovea. Koreans Bitter I "' Japanese reactions may be the inevitable result of Japan's defeat and occupation whereas the Ko reans are bitter about American plans for building new Japanese power and American opposition to President Syngman Rhee's readi ness to take over Communist North Korea by force. s No , country ever exercises a leadership so perfect that it avoids all setbacks and compromises. But the comparative records available indicate that in the past 18 months the United States has suffered major reverses in Europe j and Asia which reflect recent changes in its relations with friendly coun tries These changes add up to a new U.S. diplomatic position which has come about not so much by de liberate choice as by the inevitable march of events which in many instances the United States itself set in motion. 1 Perhaps the most signifcant sin gle 1 event in 1 the collection', of causes was the death of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin in March, 1953, and the greater flexibility which developed in foreign policy under the guidance of Premier Malenkov and Foreign Minister Molotov once they were free of Stalin's domination. Russia's relative good behavior during the transitional 18 months has reduced fear in many lands even though Western leaders say it has not by any means elimi nated the dangers of Russian ag gression. ... ; GOP Guidance Stalin's death roughly coincided with two other facts of world-wide importance. Shortly before he died the Eisenhower administration re placed the Truman administration in the United States, and the Uni ted' States, under Republican gui dance, began sharply tapering off American aid programs and try ing, where possible, to reduce U. S. commitments abroad. President Eisenhower carried through policies for ending the Korean War and followed success in this endeavor with a reduction of U.S. armed forces in the Far East. .1 ' These adjustments in United States policyt were made possibly by the fact that the policies which were adjusted ; had served their purpose. . 1 i . The line of resistance to com munism and of building strength in the Free World had been laid down by President Truman in rec ommending aid for Greece and Turkey1 in 1347. The Marshall Plan for European recovery, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the policy of rearming , West Germany, i Jap anese peace and defense treaties, the determination to fight in Ko rea and to help the fight in Indo china against communism all these matters had been decided before the new administration took over. . " Its task thus becomes one of ad justing to the situation created by the fact that the Free World had developed military and economic strength and was tu longer so de pendent on the United States. TextofU.S., Korean Pact Made Public SEOUL (UP) The Republic of Korea's office of public informa tion released Saturday the text of the agreement it signed with the United States Wednesday for j 70 million dollars' in U.S. military and economic aid. i 1 ; f The agreement contained - the intention and 1 policy" of : both nations. The Republic of Korea agreed to: - - : . 1. Cooperate with , the United States in its efforts to unify Korea. 2. Retain ROK forces under the operational control of the U. U. command. . ' . ,: 3..

Support a strengthened ROK military establishmenL 3. Consult fully! with the ROK military in carrying out the sup port program. 4. Employ military power, in the event of an unprovoked attack on the Republic of Korea. 5. Press forward with the eco nomic program for the rehabilita tion of Korea.
