(International) Ike Expected To Ask Russians To Describe Disarmament Plans Washington (U.R) Arocri-lof can officials said today. Presi dent Eisenhower probably will tell Russia to spell out its new est disarmament proposals more explicitly if it is sincere about them.. U.S. disarmament experts sus pect that Russia may have put forth the new proposals largely as a propaganda move to divejt attention from the Hungarian situation. But they said "stakes in the disarmament race are too high to leave . any stone un turned." Mr. Eisenhower and Harold E. Stassen, 'his special disarma ment adviser, went over the Rus sian proposals Monday as part Mrs. Hope Hedgepeth and Mrs. George Ring are giving a party for the LTL at the Hedge peth home Monday evening.

Since the end of World War II, many persons have said that it was Japan's aggressive war that brought in dependence to a number of na tions in Asia. Now this idea has been chal lenged and by an Asian. The man with a different thought on the matter is Adam Malik, an Indonesian who is managing director of Antara News Agency in Djakarta. Malik, In an interview with a Tokyo newspaper, branded as Auto Spurs Search For Robbers of Bank Seattle iU.R) An abandoned getaway car spurred a search in the metropolitan Seattle area today for two armed bandits who robbed a drive-in branch bank of an estimated S34.0U0. The two men entered the branch of the People's National Bank of Washington shortly be fore the 3 p.m. closing time Monday. One of them guarded the door while the second drew a gun and stuffed a paper bag with bills. As the ' pair fled across a parking lot, the paper bag burst open scattering bills to the ground. The men did not stop but fled in a 1950 Mercury club coupe equipped with stolen li cense plates. The abandoned car was found Monday night by police. Medford Pair Protest Tax Collection Effort Washington U.R) A Med ford couple, former operators of a Klamath Falls hotel, filed peti tions here yesterday protesting efforts of the federal govern ment to collect more than S47, 000 in taxes and penalties the government says is due. I James F. and Nell Pulver. for mer operators of the Palm hotel in Klamath Falls, denied that they owe the additional money and also pleaded the statute of limitations as a bar to recovery of the alleged tax deficiencies which are for the period from 1942-47. The couple charged that the government made "arbitrary and false" additions to their tax able incomes and was seeking to impose a tax "on non-existent income." a government-wide "word by word" study of the message. Stassen also met with a seven agency governmental committee which is trying to determine whether the Soviet proposal holds any hope for successful negotiation on disarmament. Propose New 'Summit' The latest Moscow ideas were communicated over the week end to the United States, Britain. France, Red China and India. It called for a new "summit" con ference at which the Soviet Union would be prepared to dis cuss limited application of Mr. Eisenhower's "open skies" aerial inspection plan. This was the first instance in which the Soviets indicated they might accept the aerial inspec tion idea in any form. The Russians proposed crea tion of a 1,000-mile belt across Europe which would be subject to a test of the aerial inspec tion plan. The belt would run about 500 miles on both sides of a line separating Eastern and Western forces in Europe. Blast Western Powers But coupled with this new proposal, the Russians blasted Western powers in biting lan guage and repeated many old Soviet disarmament ideas, in cluding immediate suspension of H-bomb tests. Officials said the United States is not ready for another summit meeting on the basis o the new Soviet note. But tney said the propaganda the claims that Jap anese occupation had been in strumental in bringing inde pendence to Indonesia and other former Southeast Asian colonies. Hp aHvispH tho .TananpcA In cnn makinp such claim. i The truth of the matter was, he noted, that Australia and the United States and other coun tries were the powers that really helped the Asian nations to gain freedom and self government. Americans Vondered He recalled that in Australia the union members had refused to handle ships carrying Dutch troops and - arms to Indonesia. He pointed out, that the United States had given strong moral support to the independence movement. "In our fight for independence we first had to get rid of tfie Japanese occupation forces then the Dutch," he said. Malik's statement was well re ceived in American quarters where many persons were be ginning to wonder if the Indo nesians ever knew (or had for gotten) how much the United States aid did to promote Indo nesian independence. Many Americans long have held the fear that Indonesians do not know how big a role the United States played in ousting the Dutch. Many Americans fear that in the hectic first days of the new government, the story of America's effort never was told to the Indonesian people. The Philippines Malik's statement also ' was well received by Americans who hate to think that the misguided adventures of Japan's warlords were responsible for the birth of the Republic of Philippines. Americans know that Philip pines independence had been planned for years and was car ried out on schedule. They know their friendship for the Filipinos before, during and after the war had little to do with Japan's unsuccessful efforts to expand her empire. Testimony and records intro duced in the major war crimes trials in Tokyo after World War II indicated the Japanese mili tarists were not interested in securing the independence of Southeast Asia. On one occasion, according to the testimony,' one of Japan's leaders assured his associates that the time was ripe and Japan would never have another such opportunity in the next 300 years to expand the empire. United Slates will want to ex- plore the Soviet plan thorough ly through diplomatic channels before accepting or rejecting it. One likely way to do this, they said, is for Mr. Eisenhower to ask Russia for more details if it wants serious negotiations to end the arms race. Authorities quickly turned down the idea that the aerial inspection be limited to the zone suggested by Russia. That would let Soviet inspectors check al most all the North Atlantic Treaty Organization area but would bar inspectors from see ing what goes on inside the Soviet border. Officials said this would mean the end of NATO's usefulness. PEDESTRIAN DIES Porland -U.PJ Mrs. Amy ?'.
