The plan was for NATO to attempt conciliation anions Britain, Greece and Tur keyall NATO members. Within hours, Greek and Greek Cypriot leaders declared their op position. No Turkish Reply Yet There was no Immediate Turk ish reaction. Most ot the 400,000 Greek Cyp riols want Cyprus united with Greece. The 100,000 Turkish Cyp riols oppose this. Mayor Themisloclcs N. Dervis (if Nicosia declared that "the Cyprus prohlem is not one o( dif ferences existing among the gov ernments of Greece, Turkey and Great Britain, hut one which af fects the self-determination of Cy prus. It should be settled directly between Britain and Archbishop Makarios, the representative of the Greek Sypriot people." Andread Pouyiouros, leftist mayor of Famagusta. on Cyprus' cast coast, said the Greek Ortho dox archbishop should be freed from his internment on the Scy- chelle Islands "unconditionally in order to resume negotiations with the British government. EOKA Offers Truce EOKA, the Greek Cypriol un derground, last week offered a truce in its guerrilla war against the British if the British would end the archbishop's exile. Len-nox-Boyd in reply told Parliament Makarios would be freed immed iately if he would call a halt to the anti-British violence on Cy prus, But he added tho- church man could not return to the island, where tho British claim he helped direct the EOKA campaign. In Athens, Greek Premier Con stantino Karnmanlis in a state ment attacked Britain's accept ance of the NATO enunciliation oftcr. He said it ignored a U. N. General Asscmhly resolution, Bdopted 55-0 on Feb. 26, calling for resumed negotiations aimed at attaining democratic, peaceful conditions on the Island.

Nixon on Way Home After 22 Days in Africa VP Will Urge Greater Economic, Technical Aid to Continent TUNIS l-Vice President Nixon was flying home today from his 22-day African tour with recom mendations lo increase U. S. eco nomic and technical aid to coun tries on the African continent. He also wants better personnel at American embassies, consul ales and information offices. Nixon took off in his special Air Force plane after attending a sports program celebrating Tun isian first year of independence. French Justice Minister Francois Mitlerand, France's representa tive at the program, left the sta dium in a huff and flew back to Paris when he found Algerian ua- tionalist leader Ferhat Abbas sealed nearby. Mitterand and Nixon met at the airport and chatted for 20 min utes. Nixon reportedly told Ihe Frenchman the Algerian-French struggle could be resolved only through peaceful means. Nixon's recommendations t o President Eisenhower on the basis of the 18,000-mile African swing probably will be kept private. However, these appeared to be the policies he favors alter visit ing Ghana, Liberia. Ethiopia. Uganda. Morocco. Libya, Sudan and Tunisia: 1. A stepup in the U. S. eco nomic and military aid, especial ly to newly independent countries, lo help them keep their individual identity in the face of mounting pressure to join rival blocs and federations. 2. Greatly increased cultural exchange programs to enable more African leaders and students to spend time in the United States. 3. An expansion of U. S. infor mation activities, mainly by im proving library centers. Nixon considers them more effective in building good will than Voice of America broadcasts and publicity releases. 4. A ' determined effort to strengthen personnel in the em bassies, consulates and informa tion offices. HE "NOSE" BUSINESS MADISON. Wis.

Byrd (D-Va) said today House leaders have agreed to go along with a plan to increase from a year to 15 months an extension of present rates on corporation and excise taxes. In view of this, Byrd told a re porter, the Finance Committee he heads undoubtedly will vote for the longer extension to July 1, 1958. The House already has voted an extension to April 1, 1958. Un less Congress acts, Ihe business lax rates will drop April I. cutting revenues three billion dollars a year. Byrd said the longer extension would have the advantage of mak ing the tax dates correspond with the government's fiscal years, which start July 1, so that, "if we ever can cut taxes, we would; know just how it would affect the i revenue. Secretary of the Treasury Hum phrey told Ihe Finance Committee he would have no objection to the 15-month extension provided it did not delay final action on the bill beyond March 31. Ike Letter Encourages Boy, 129 Who Lost Less Under Train PHILADELPHIA UB President Eisenhower has sought to rally the spirits of a 12-year-old boy Izvestia Calls Bermuda Talks British Danger MOSCOW ifl Iivestia Thurs day called the Bermuda Big Two talks a "grave danger" to Brit ain's interests. ' The Soviet government newspa per said President Eisenhower and Prime Minister Macmillan evidently are trying to coordinate their strategy "on the basis of their common enmity" toward communism. The dispatch from Izvcstia's London correspondent declared powerful interests in Britain had urged Macmillan to be firm in de fense of "British imperialist inter ests against encroachments of the United States," particularly in the Middle East. . But in actual fact, Izvestia add ed, "the vital national interests of Britain demand a policy of peace and security not participation in backstage imperialistic conspira cies and combinations." "The characteristic feature of the present course pursued by the ruling circles of Britain." Ivestia said, "is the absence of initiative in this field and submissive trail ing along in the wake of the United Stales. In this respect the Bermuda conference offers a fresh, grave danger to Britain's interests."

Services Held For Mrs. Duff Funeral services were held at the Community Presbyterian Church at Cannon Beach Thurs day morning at 11 o'clock for Ma tilda Crawford Duff, whose hus band was the late Rev. Waller Duff. Interment was in the Lincoln Memorial Park, Portland. Mrs. Duff, who died Tuesday at the Seaside hospital, for many venrs was actively engaged in Bible Conference and evangelistic ministry work on. the Pacific Coast with her late husband. She was well known as a Bible teach er. Survivors include five children. who lost both legs in a fall under a freight car Feb. 10. In a letter delivered this week to Gerry Corkery, the President encouraged the boy: "Please get well soon." This was followed by another "get well" message, giv- en lo Gerry in the children's ward of Episcopal Hospital, this one from Sherman Adams, chief pres idential assistant. With it was an autographed picture of the Presi dent. . The Eisenhower letter said: "1 know just how hard it is for an active boy like yourself to face the problems that you have, but I am also completely confident that you will courageously return to your school and home routines. "I like to think that there must be compensations' in misfortune such as yours, and, difficult as it is for you to accept now, I am sure you will discover many as you grow older." The President said he learned about the accident from Rep. James Byrne (D-Pal, whose fam ily has been close to the Corkerys for years. Rockets Fired InNo.Canada To Test Winds FT. MONMOUTH, N.J. -The Army announced today it is firing rockets from deep in northern Canada to measure icy winds as high up as 80 miles. The experiments are expected lo lead to more accurate predic tions of cold weather during the winter months. They were planned by scientists of the U.S. Army Signal Engineering Laboratories here. The Army said the first special ly equipped "Aerobee" rocket was fired lat Nov. 12 at Ft. Churchill, Man. A series of nine more launchings are scheduled during the 1957-58 International Geophysical Year, the first on next July 19. The Aerobee sprays 18 packets of high explosives into the air at pre-sct intervals during its as cent. When the four-pound charges explode, sensitive instruments on the ground record the barely audi ble blasts. Scientists measure the time lag between each explosion and the arrival of the sound at the earth. From this data they compute im portant facts about the direction, speed and temperature of polar winds. N A SIMGL-E SFCZE -SINCZ UMIT!
