Nehru Said
Med To
Boss Truce
NEW DELHI. India Ifl Author
itative sources said Britain sound
ed out Prime Minister Nehru Tues
day on India's willingness to serve
on an International commission to
supervise an Indochina cease-Urc.
British Actlns High commission
er George H. Middlcton called on
the Indian premier to discuss com-
position of such a commission. Re
portedly he acted on Instructions
sent him from oencva Dy uriusn
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden.
Source at the Geneva conference
reported Monday that the French
and the Communists had agreed
on a commission made up of India,
Canada and Poland.
Though an Indian government
spokesman declined to say whether
Nehru and Middlcton took up the
subject of Indian membership on
the group, other authoritative
sources said this was speoiflcally
discussed.
These sources said Nehru Indi
cated India might find It difficult
to provide sufficient qualified per
sonnel for an armistice group, par
ticularly If It Is to be broken up
into separate groups for each of
the three Indochlnese states. Re
ports from Geneva have said such
sn arrangement Is planned.
Officially, however, India was
awaiting formal action from Gen
eva before commenting on her
availability. The government
spokesman said of the Nehru
Mlddleton talk:
"Whether India was Invited to
serve on such a commission and
whether India would accept if invit
ed are subjects I cannot discuss
until there Is some official action
at Geneva."
He added that Nehru and other
Indian officials have always been
optimistic that an Indochina truce
would be reached and are "more
optlmistio than ever today."

Ike Housing
Bill Defeated
WASHINGTON Wl The House
Tuesday defeated a last-d itch
drive, led by Democrats, to enact
President Elsenhower's proposal
for 140,000 government-built, low
rent public housing units over the
next four years.
The role call vote was 234-156.
Then on another roll call, the
House passed the compromise bill
by a 358-30 vote and sent It to the
Senate.
The showdown came on a motion
by Rep. Spence (D-Ky) to restore
the Eisenhower program of 35,000
public housing units a year to a
compromise bill carrying out many
of the President's other housing
recommendations.

The catch-all bill, lowering re
quired down payments on PHA
loans, is a compromise between
separate versions passed earlier
by the House and Senate.
Democrats denounced it a;
"death blow" to public housing
which actually would do nothing
to relieve misery in slums. Spence
predicted if Republicans defeated
his motion, Democrats would be
back In power in Congress for the
next 20 years.
Thornton
lules On
Suard Pay
SALEM (l Employes of the
state, counties, cities and other
local governments must receive
their full civilian pay while they
are on active duty at annual sum
mer training of the National Guard
or armed lorces reserve camps,
Atty. Oen. Robert Y. Thornton
ruled Monday.
The law, Thornton says, provides
that these public employes shall
be paid for a maximum of 14 days
a year wnile they are at camp.
The opinion was for MaJ. Gen.
Thomas E. Rllea, adjutant gener
al of Oregon, who said that the
city of Salem tried to deduct Na
tional Guard pay from the salary
of a fireman while he was at camp.
Thornton wrote:
"When the Legislature provided

that any public officer or employe
?hould be allowed a leave of ab
sence for active duty in military
service 'without loss ol pay,' it
meant 'without loss of salary,
wages or other usual compensa
tion.' It did not say 'without loss
of income' or 'without loss of pay
other than an amount equal to
compensation received by the of
ficer or employe for military serv
ice'." Si, Thornton ruled, when a pub
lic employe goes to camp, he gets
his full civilian pay plus his full
military pay.
Payment of public employes
while they are at camp Is In the
public Interest, rather than just be
inu of benefit to the employes, he
said.
