Hungary and TibetCold
Items, May be Postponed in
By DONALD JOHNSTON
United Nations -VPD- Are
two of the West's trump cards
-Hungary and Tibet - getting
lost in the agenda shuffle now
going on at the United Na
tions? , These two items, already
obscured by the passage of
time, are scheduled for dis
cussion during the current
15th General Assembly, but
they are among the "cold
war" issues which the United
States has suggested be de
ferred until next autumn's
session.
The Russians would like the
United Nations to defer the
items permanently. They
would like the world to for
get the charges of Communist
armed aggression in Hungary
and Tibet.
For this reason, the Soviets
have put out feelers for a pos
sible "horse trade" with the
Western powers. They have
offered to drop efforts to get
the United Nations to con
demn the "aggressive" U2 and
RB47 plane incidents if the
United States and its allies

men are close behind, how
ever. They are Arthur R.
Davis, 24 years, and Sam
Steele, 23 years, both Med

with 10 or more years of accident-free
driving and silver

win withdraw "cold war
items - meaning Hungary and
Tibet.
U. S. Ambassador Adlai E.
Stevenson has made it clear
the United States will not
make any deal to delete some
items in exchange for others.
But to avert "acrimonious
debate" at this time, Steven
son said, his delegation sug
gests that the assembly deal
only with "housekeeping"
items and the Congo during
this spring session and post
pone "cold war" issues until
the 16th assembly next
September.
"We think a period of rela
tive quiet would contribute to
a better international climate
for serious negotiation on such
vital subjects as disarma
ment," Stevenson said.
A U. S. spokesman empha
sized that the United States
does not want the Hungary
and Tibet items scratched
from the agenda, but merely
put off for the time being. He
implied that the Kennedy ad
ministration would like more
time to formulate its policies
on vital international issues.
"Our basic position on Hun
gary and Tibet has not chang
ed," he said.
The Hungary question has
had ample airing in the Unit
ed Nations since the Budapest
uprising in 1956, but the Rus
sians and the Hungarian Red
regime have thwarted any
concrete U.N. action.
Crushed at Request
The Communists insist that
the crushing of the rebellion
by Soviet troops was at the
request of the Hungarian gov
ernment, and that the whole
matter is an internal affair
outside U. N. jurisdiction. The
Reds maintain a similar posi
tion on the Communist Chi
nese conquest of Tibet.
The General Assembly first
took action on the Hungary
question on Nov. 4, 1956. In
i resolution, the assembly
'condemned the use of Soviet
military forces to suppress the
efforts of the Hungarian peo
ple to re-establish their rights,
and called upon the govern
ment of the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics to desist
forthwith from all armed at
tack on the peoples of Hun
gary, and from any form of
intervention."
Commitiet Appointed
When Russia failed to com
ply with the resolution, the
assembly appointed a commit
tee to investigate the situa
tion fully and to try to imple
ment the resolution.
The Communists persistent
ly have refused to cooperate
with the committee and have
refused any on-the-spot in
quiry. The latest U. N. report on
the stalemate was submitted
last December by Sir Leslie
Munro of New Zealand, U. N.
representative on Hungary. It
was denounced by Hungarian
Delegate Janos Peter, who
charged the report was trying
to use the United Nations for
the strategic' purposes of the
Western powers against Hun
gary and the Soviet Union.
The Tibet question first
came up in the United Na
tions in September, 1959,
when Malaya and Ireland re
quested that it be put on the
agenda for the 14th assembly.
This was six months after the
Tibetans revolted against the
rule imposed by the Red Chi
nese troops who invaded the
Himalayan Kingdom in 1950.
Referred to Appeal
A Malayan-Irish statement
referred to an appeal for help
from Tibet's spiritual leader,
the Dalai Lama, who said the
Chinese had smashed the up
rising and brutally suppressed
the religious and civil liberties
of his people. The statement
said the United Nations "has
both a moral obligation and a
legal right to discuss the situa
tion." In October, 1959, the asscm
bly adopted a resolution
which deplored the events in
Tibet and called for "respect
for the fundamental human
rights of the Tibetan people
and for their distinctive cul
tural and religious life."
The Tibet question was sla'.-
ed for further discussion in
the 15th assembly before it
recessed on Dec. 21, but be
cause of the pressure of de
bate on such items as the
Congo, it was deferred-along
with 37 other items - to the
current resumed session which
began March 7.

GHOST TOWN The West's wildest ghost town is not
Virginia City or anywhere near it. It's 12 miles from
Marysville, Calif., on sprawling and strategic Beale Air
Force base. Four hundred $16,500 homes, in all stages of
construction, stand rotting along brand new but roped off
streets. Construction of the project was halted last Mary 19
when the contractor encountered financing problems. Last
month the U.S. Department of Defense said it would take
charge of finishing the project with the Federal Housing
Authority providing insurance funds. (UPI Telcphoto)
Cat Head Tax Has Loopholes
Charleston, W.Va. - IUPD -
State Delegate T. E. Myles
emphasized that he was "com
pletely serious" when he said
he would introduce legisla
tion that would place a $1
head tax on all cats in the

But colleagues, tongue-in-
cheek, followed up with
amendments which would:
- Exclude from the bill all
"hepcats, cool cats, civet cats
and polecats."
- Put excess funds into cap
ital improvement!;, such as
catnip.
