It seemed clear that the Soviet Government has made its pro- posed five-power peace pact the -"vliTlFISlOne for bettering relations win the United States. and ism: American injection of pro- posal is going to be interpreted .icri- aa rejection of real friend- ship for'the Soviet Union.

All Moscow papers gave a big play to the exchange of mass- sacs between the American Pres- ident and Soviet President Nikolai siivcrnik, and the U. S. Con.gress' resolution declaring Americans want friendly relations with the Russians.

When the Soviet press goes to work on the State Deparla'nent'g tum-down of the five-power pact idea. any good impression created by the Truman message will be considerably levelled off. (The State Departments view is that the United Nations charter makes a five-power peace pact superfluous."

Slill raieii With laslt Of Forming Cabinet

By HARVEY HUDSON

PARIS. Aug. 8 - (AP) - The French National Assembly totiay cmflrmed Rene Plevcn rs prem- ier. a job he held for seven months last year.

The vote was 391 to 102.

Pleven's invastituro opens the way for an end to the political" crisis which has gripped France since Premier Henri Queullle re- signed July 10. Qucuille's resigna- tion was an automatic consequence at the national parliamentary elections June 17.

only the Communists voted against Pleven. Members of Gen Charles de Gaullc'a Raasembie- mcnt du Peuple Francals abstain- ed. His support came from the wide range of middle-of-the-road parties that have controlled the French Government for the last four years. One of these is his own small Democratic and Socla.- ist Union of Resistance.

Pleven succeeded today where two previous candidates lost out. Rene Mayer. outgoing justice min- ister, and Maurice Petschc. outgo- ing finance minister. failed to get the required absolute majority of 314 votes. when they asked for in- vestiture. Four other candidates for the premiership had to admit defeat before they 'asked assembly approval. i

Now Pleven faces the job of putting together a cabinet accept- able to the parties which support- ed him. The Catholic Mouvement Rcpublicain Popullire, the Radic- al Socialists and the Socialists are the biggest of this group.

Report Cabinet -Crisis In Egypt Over Treaty

CAIIRO. Aug. 8' - (CPI -- Sevei-al Egyptian newspapers said today a cabinet crisis has been brought on by the Egyptian For- eign Minister's announcement that Egypt will break its treaty with Britain.

The opposition paper Akhcr Lahza said Slah Din Pasha's statement Monday had "astound- ed" Premier Mustspha El Nahas Pasha and surprised most of his cabinet. The paper said Salah E1 Din's assertion that Britain would mot be supported in a fu- ture war was equally surprising.

it claimed the announcement conflicted with the cabinets sug- gestion that his speech should merely suggest that Egypt would reconsider its atiitude- toward Britain in the event of war.

The Foreign Minister told the government organ. Al Balagh. that suspension of the treaty must be pieccded by legislation.

"We shall announce the abro- gation in a separate statement to be made before the next throne speech." he said.

In Geneva. Dr. Mahmud Azml Bey. Egyiptlan observer to the United Nations ' Economic and Social Council. said it will be "only a ma ter of weeks" until the Sudan onvenlion and the An-gio-ulgyiptian treaty are de- nounced.

Panel Discussions At

Teachers? Conference

The possibilities of retired teach- ers receiving credit towards their pensions for teaching service: in other provinces than the one in which their retirement becomes effective were briefly explored yes- terday at the 30th Conference of the Canadian Teachers Assocla-. tion held at The Charlottetown.

The question arose in the Sup- erannuation Committee Report presented by Dr. I... Bernice Mac- Naugliton, past president of the Federation. Although there was disagreement. among delegates as to how the problem could best be solved. it was the concensus that a teacher spending a lifetime in the profession should be entitled tc a full pension even though some of the teaching years might have leen spent in different provinces.

Some of the delegates felt that inter-provlncitfl transfer of funds would present an insurmountable obstacle to the plan because of possible conflict with various pro- vincial pension acts. It was sug- gested that teachcra should have a vested right in provincial pen-

It was the Red attempt. to mini- mize the importance of the neu- trality vlolntioii that led Rldgway to reject an official Communist explanation of the incident last Monday.
