Almost all departments of the market participated In the rise at one time or another, and gains went to between 1 and 3 points at the best.

Thursday's business amounted to 5,070,900 shares with the market higher. U.S. Asian Plan laces Problems WASHINGTON Ul The United States may run Into difficulty in setting up a collective anti-Communist defense for Southeast Asia without Britain if in the show down Britain refuses to go along. . A sign of possible complication came from New Zealand's Foreign Minister T. Clifton Webb yesterday after an hour-long conference with Secretary of State Dulles and New Zealand's, ambassador here, Leslie Knox Munro. "I can't conceive of a satisfac tory alliance being made that didn't include Britain," Webb said, adding: "We can't see Britain not want ing to be In. You are asking me to speculate on a situation which we don't believe will arise." Nothing of great importance, certainly nothing of a formal na ture Is likely to,. happen on the coalition roject until after the Australian elections May 28. At that time U.S. officials would like to move quickly, and extensive un derstandings may by then have been reached by American and French officials now holding pre liminary talks at Paris. The British government has de cided it will not make commit ments of any kind on the Southeast Asia-Indochina situation until after negotiations at Geneva conclusive ly show whether there is to be an end to the lighting. This country Is unwilling to wait that long. The U.S. government is not ne cessarily aiming at the start for a formal alliance, but rather a prac tical kind of coalition which could be created more quickly. In the precise meaning ot the words, American officials undoubtedly would agree with Webb that a "satisfactory alliance" with out British participation would be very difficult to bring about In view of Britain's world position and special interests in Southeast Asia. President Eisenhower told a news conference Wednesday he thought a workable defense might be constructed if New Zealand and Australia both members of the British Commonwealth and the proper Asian nations were willing to cooperate. This could be taken to mean that without New Zea land's cooperation the p r o fe c t would not succeed. Webb, who leaves ' today, told newsmen that in general he felt there was "a substantial identity of views" between him and Dulles. HIBTBS GUNTER Born to Mr. and Mn.
