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. But Hag-
In The Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Leaving Mazatlan which . is
one of the Mexican west coast's
most interesting cities. It is a
seaport. 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

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.
