The Indian leader, who will at tend the conference of British Commonwealth premiers opiinJ in London Monday was expected to confer with British Foreign Secre tary Anthony Eden shortly after his arrival in the British capital A Commonwealth diplomat in New Delhi said he was very happy that the Commonwealth conference was being held at this time so the crisis betiveen Nationalist and Red China could be discussed.

Opposition tl dwindling as lhe Senate began its third day of de bale on the proposal and over whelming approval appeared cer tain. But there was no guarantee of final action today. Acting Democratic Leader Earle C. Clements iKy) said the Senate would hold a night session and per haps even an unusual Saturday session if necessary to complete action. The resolution cleared the House, -109 to 3 Tuesday. Senate Republican Leader Wil liam F. Kno.vlund (Call and GOP Whip Leverett Sallonstall (Mass) urged that the Senate act before the weekend because of the touch-and-go military situation in the Formosan Straits. Administration loaders also stressed the need of unified back ing for the President's request as a show of determined strength against any Communist Chinese ef forts to advance toward Formosa and the Pescadores. Mr. Eisenhower himself helped break the back of any serious Sen ate opposition when he announced Thursday that U.S. forces in the Formosa area are there only for defensive puriwses and that he alone will decide whether they will be used in any other manner.

Wayne L. Morse (Ind-Ore) and others that the "blank check authority asked by the President would authorize a "preventive war" against the China mainland.

Neubergor ID- Ore.) was being "ignorant and ri diculous when he charged that the Eisenhower administration has "evidently abandoned interest"- in the Talent Irrigation project.

Ells worth complained that Neuberger had "injected politics" into the project and this could adversely affect chances of congressional ap proval of construction funds.

Mll.NN -United Press Staff Correspondent UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (UP) The United States and Britain have agreed to invite Red China to the United Nations In an attempt to arrange a cease-fire for Formosa, it was learned today. Authoritative sources said the two major Western powers have authorized New Zealand to make the formal proposal to the U.N. Security Council Monday, . In Moscow, British Ambassador Sir William Hayter called on Sov iet Foreign Minister V. M. Mol- otov and urged that Russia use its good offices to persuade Red China to accept. He also asked Russia to advise Peiping to adopt moderate attitude toward the Formosan crisis. . Red China's Terms India was expected to be asked to play the role of intermediary in negotiations with the Red Chin ese. India's Prime Minister Jawahar lal Nehru was on his way to London today with what were believed to be Red China's terms for an agreement to end the dangerous clashes between Red and Nation alist Chinese forces in the For mosa area. .

Minister Winston Churchill will give the West a tip-off on what prospects for success there are in lhe diplomatic maneuver to end the shooting off Formosa. Wheels in Motion The United Nations will set in motion the wheels of Its peace ef fort later today when Sir Leslie Knox Munro, New Zealand chair man of the Security Council, sends out letters calling other members Monday's meeting, it was learned here. . Authoritative sources said the Security Council probably will authorize either Secretary-general Dag Hammarskjold or Sir Leslie lo extend the invitation to Red China to attend the cease-fire talks. Authoritative sources said the United States was in "fullest' a greement" with the plan to bring Red Chinese delegates here for the peace efforts. The real question will be wheth er Peiping will accept. The Com munist Chinese government and her Russian ally both have bitterly ittacked case-fire suggestions. The Big (Question Red China's official Peiping Rad io and the controlled Chinee press have charged that the cease-fire is wanted by the United Sates only to prolong the "American occupa tion" of Formosa and to disguise U.S. preparations on Formosa for a war against the China mainland. Nehru is expected to provide at least some of the answers to the big question of whether Peiping will stick by . its propaganda re fusal to discuss a cease-fire or will cooperate In an attempt to reach i peaceful solution. Hod China's Premier Chou Eh !ai has publicly said repeatedly hut his regime never will back lown from Its determination to "liberate" Formosa. 3 Hospitalized After Accidents Sm-cinl to The Bulletin REDMOND Three persons were injured, one seilously, in two separate one-car accidents Thurs day in Redmond.
