I MONDAY, JULY 26, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE SEVEN Far East Conference Planni WASHINGTON Ml A While House gathcrir.f? of military ad visers in advance of a visit from Syugman Rhee today heralded a series of conferences expected to have an important bearing on U.S. policy in the Communist-troubled Par East. Rhee, President of South Korea, was due in Washington late today. He begins talks with President Eisenhower and other U.S. offi cials tomorrow. Several hours ahead of Rhee's arrival, Eisenhower summoned to a luncheon meeting Secretary ol Defense Wilson and Adm. Arthur Radford, chairmim of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Also invited was retired Gen. James A. Van Fleet, recently returned from a survey of military assistance needs In the Par East. 1 The meeting followed closely an nouncement of tentative plans for a conference in August or Septem ber of Western and Asian nations on formation of a Southeast Asia defensive alliance. From the views of the three ad visers the President can assemble the individual strategic and supply requirement problems of Japan, Korea, Formosa and the Philip pines and start patterning them to ' those foreseen for the-; nations on the southeastern flank of Asia if a defensive alliance should be ob tained. Rhee is likely to ask, according to Seoul dispatches, for military equipment and transport to equip at least 10 and perhaps 20 more divisions than the 20 South Korea already has. Hq also is expected to seek a boost in the rate of U.S. economic aid, now running at 200 million dollars a year. Eisenhower in turn is reported planning to ask the fiery nationalist to forget, at least for the time being, his dream of Korean unifi cation, and also to soften his atti tude toward his old enemy Japan. The new and strategically val uable position of the Reds in North ern Indochina Imposes a critical factor in defense planning but of ficials believe it will not adversely affect the long-range, three-year program for military assistance to Korea, Japan, Formosa and the Philippines. At the Pentagon, it was said that no change in money alloca' tlons is contemplated under the military assistance program for this fiscal year. Officials said a sudden cutback now might 8larm nations which the United States hopes to bring into the Southeast Asia alliance. And the fluid situation throughout the area would make it militarily unwise. Beyond this there was the re. cent news conference discussion bv Wilson which indicated the pro. gram for cutbacks in military strength was being reviewed. Rhee Predicts Red Aggression MCCHORD AIR FORCE BASE, Wash. President Syngman Rhee of South Korea predicted last light that Thailand "will be the next victim" of Communist aggression. The Korean President, stopping at this western Washington air base en route to an official visit with President Eisenhower, de scribed as "an unfortunate thing" the manner in which the Indochina action was settled. It Is unfortunate that we have let Indochina go," he told report ers. "What more are we going to lose?" The Korean President landed aft er a 22-hour flight from Seoul. He was accompanied- by Mrs. Rhee and a parly of 12. When asked the purpose of his trip to Washington, the 79-year-old President said "I would rather keep silent until I have talked with President Ei senhower. I'm quite sure we have things to talk over." wm, i iiiiiiiv wviiioii o miuiuuii la uauan i igin i wife met you last night, she said you looked easy to ask for a raisel" Thome Death Said Natural CHICAGO lifl Mail order heir Montgomery Ward Thorne died of a lung disease probably pneu monia, one of the four pathologists assigned to a second post-mortem reported yesterday. The report of the pathologists that the 20-year-oiu neir to $2,600,000 fortune died of natural causes will be given this week to Coroner Walter E. McCarron. Tnc medical expert who told this to newsmen is Dr. Otto Saphir of the University of Illinois. The report probably will end the official inquiry into Thome's death. His shorts-clad "body was found on the bed of his $75-a-month apartment June 19. Dr. Harry Leon, a coroner s physician, noted puncture marks on the arms and said death was the result of a combination of al cohol, barbiturates and an alka loid possibly morphine and pos sibly administered by someone else. Dr. Leon's findings were ques tioned,' and the special group of pathologists named to double-check will report Dr. Leon "should have arrived at the right answer 24 hours after the body was found," according to Dr. Saphir. The panel said the quantities of those substances found in the tis sues were too . small . to cause death. Searr-Hers Find lest Hiker CUMBERLAND. Md.
