HDulEes Said Keady ToTell Off Arabia Tank Peal Approval Washington (U.R) Secretary of State John Foster Dulles to day was reported ready to tell Senate investigators that he ori ginally approved the controver sial shipment of 18 U.S. tanks to Saudi Arabia. Dulles and Undersecretary of State Herbert Hoover Jr. will appear Friday before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to explain the "off-again-on-again" tank deal. - . The Senate committee'" wants to know why tanks for an Arab-1 nation were approved at a time when the State Department was delaying action on a request for U.S. arms aid from Israel. Dulles Approved . Deal . While Dulles was ready to concede his original approval of the deal, he emphasized Wednes day that he had nothing to do with the administration embargo clamped on all arms shipments to the Middle East after word of the tank deal leaked out. The embargo was on only ' for 43 hours, was then lifted and the ship on which the tanks had been loaded departed for Saudi Arabia. - . Dulles said the embargo was a development which occurred while he was on a Caribbean va cation and that , he was not in formed about it. He said he. did not learn of it until he reached Miami, Fla. Wednesday en route back to Washington. White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty was said to have played a major role in the short-lived embargo. It was re ported that the State Depart- rent did not feel at first an em bargo was warranted.

It is also a popular beach resort, but this is the win ter season and although the wa ter is warmer here in February than the water of the beaches in Northern California and Oregon and Washington in, the middle of August, it is a bit chilly for the Mexican people. So the bulk of the brave souls who venture into the breakers are Americanos. It is a lovely beach, crescent-shaped, with hills at each end. The surf is mild and gentle, as becomes the ocean that was named by Bal boa the Pacific THE crescent-shaped beach is edged by a - handsome, wide and sunny crescent-shaped street,' el Calle de' las Olas Altas the street of . . the high waves El Calle de las Olas Alt as is edged by the beach resort hotels, which are topped in height by the ten-story Freeman hotel. The Freeman is an old one made over. In the making over process, " balconies were added for all the rooms facing on the ocean. " . " Ths balconies open into the rooms by means of folding glass doors, which can be folded back so that the whole seaward side of th3 .room is open to the ocean. You can. sit on your balcony and watch the vivid. colorful life of las Olas Altas, or you can watch the fishing boats that dot the blue bay. T HATE to add thatl watch- x ed them for some time through the glasses and didn't see a single soul hook a fish, but I was undoubtedly looking at the wrong time. There can be no possible doubt that there are fish here along Mexico's west coast. Some of the world's most ardent fish Facts About Fluorides FROM THE UNITED STATES DEPT.

NOT ONLY do they have fish. Thpv hnvo chrimn an1 cpqT. lops. In my ignorance, I didn't know that. I thought all the shrimp came from the Gulf of Mexico and all the scallops from the rocky coasts of New-Eng land. The shrimp here '. are excel lent, and so are . the scallops which are somewhat different in shape from those of New Eng land, longer and slimmer, but taste .just, as good. This Mexi can coast is also a famous aba lone spot.- , ; Another interesting thing about this whole general beach resort area. The, natives EAT SEAFOOD THEMSELVES in a big way. AH the food places serve it, and feature it. Up along our far . northern beaches the natives have the idea: that seafood isn't fit to eat and serve it only to the fool tourists. "OUT TO get back to the hotels along the street of the high waves. In addition to the Free man, the better known ones are the Belmar and La Siesta, both of them, with, balconies- over looking the beach.i Both have patios, in the Spanish " manner. The Freeman has no patio, but it has a sky terrace, which is a charming cantina commanding a view of the beach and the rocky islands at the right-hand tip of the crescent and the team ing life of the street of the high waves. THE STREET, on its beach " side, is parked bumper to bumper with cars most of which are owned by the Amer icanos who are jamming the ho tels this year and making reser vation in . advance practically a must if one is to enjoy any peace of mind. Nothing can be more horrible than the thought that v-hen you get in there will be no.place but the street for you to sleep. VOU PARK the car when you arrive, and it stays there until you leave-no parking tickets, .no- bother from any body. You leave it dirty when you come in, and the next morning there it is shining like a bald man's dome. ; Sooner or later, a pleasant and properly modest Mexican' boy hunts you up and admits that he did the job and you crowd maybe a couple of pesos (16 cents) on him and everything is ; lovely and the goose hangs high.

Deal Approved Last August ' Administration inf or mants said Dulles originally approved the tanks for Saudi Arabia deal last August. He and other offi cials reaffirmed the decision in the fall after the Soviet bloc had closed its arms deal with Egypt. Saudi Arabia paid for the tanks Nov. 26. The State Department consid ered the tanks a key part of a new American-Saudi Arabian pact providing -for U.S. use of the Dhahran air base in the Arab nation until 1961. The present five-year lease runs out June 18. ' Assistant Secretary of State George V. Allen and Undersec retary Thurston B. Morton were questioned about the tank deal Wednesday by a. House Foreign Affairs subcommittee. Chairman Thomas E. Morgan (D-Pa.) said after 'the closed-door meeting that the subcommittee was not satisfied . with their explana tion and would summon Dulles later.
