Deadlock Al Geneva Tightens

By STANLEY PRIDDLI GENEVA, (B.eutera)——Talka slin- ed at finding a way of settling the Indo-China war Wednesday nilht became more deadlocked than ever after a declaration by communist China that an armistice commis- sion is “impossibls" without Com- munist countries, '

Communist China's Chou En-lai, in a bitter attack on American policy, adamantly insisted the makeup of the armistice commis- sion ahould be the one proposed by Russia.

Walter Bedell Smith. head of the United States delegation, hit back at Communist allegations and ap- pealed for an armistice commis- sion either made up of the Co- lombo powers——as suggested by British Foreign Secretary Eden—0r under the United Nations.

At the end of Wedensday's slxtn plenary session of the nine-nation lndo-China talks. a British spokes- man sald that progress during the last two days was “not slight but nil."

CBITICIZES U. 8. POLICY

Chou, premier and foreign min- ister of Communist China, said that U. S. policy has shown no basic change since the conference began. The purpose of the Amer- ican policy was "to extend the Irido-China war and prevent the conference reaching agreement." Smith said he had “hoped for some response to our efforts to- ward compromise." In reply to at- tacks on American policy by Rus- sia's Vyacheslav Molotov and Chou in the last two days. he asserted the United States is "quite willing’ to have its “present and future in- tentioris" judgad from its record during and since the Second World War."

smith said the commission to supervise the Indo-China armis- tice should be composed of the five Asian nation.s—Indla, Pakistan. Ceylon, Burma and Inndonesla.

The Russian proposal supported by Chou is for an armistice com- mission made up of India and Pakistan with Communist Poland and Czechoslovakia.

The West has indicated it is willing to compromise by permit. ting Communist states to sit on the armistice commission, but in. iilsts the commission should be able to make effective decisions by sim. ple majority vote. ’I‘he Commun- ists want the decisions to be by unanimous vote, which would give Communist states on the commis- sion veto powers.

N. Y. Stocks Show Recovery Signs

Tuesday‘: market was pounded down in a. major fall, and the op- ening of Trading Wednesday found prices lower.

The drop Tuesday was consider- ed a technical reaction I0il0\\Illg the vigorous rise of the last nine months. Wednesday's action was regarded by many as a display of basic strength in the midst of a normal reaction.

EDMONTON, (CP)——P'our major rlvers in north-Central Alberta swollen by five days of almost- continuous rain, have jumped their banks and forced the evacuation of at least 15 families, snarled railway and highway traffic and isolated two northern towns. Other towns are threatened with isola- tlon_

The flooding rivers are the North Saskatchewan, Athabaska, McLeod and Pembina. The Mc- Leod and Pembina empty into the Athabaska which has overflowed at more than a dozen points.

A pilot who flew over the White- court region, about 120 miles northwest of Edmonton, where the Pembinzi river Joins the Athabas- ka, said he saw an area four or five miles long and a mile wide covered with water. He said the Athabaska had ovcrflowed its banks to form a new lake, isolat- ing homes and farm buildings.

FAMILIES EVACUATED

Three families were evacuated Tuesday after the North Saskat- chewan river climbed ll feet in 24 hours. However, the river was dropping about four inches an hour Wednesday.

Centres isolated included Holmes crossing and Fort Assinlboine on the Athabaska river about 35 miles northwest of Edmonton, and others along the McLeod river.

An all-night rain fell last night and further difficulties are ex- pected along the McLeod. Coal- mining towns were reported com- pletely isolated ss railway lines and highways were knocked out.

Railway traffic west of Edmon- ton stopped. The Canadian Na- tional Railways re-routed traffic over Canadian Pacific Railway lines. A bridge on the CNR. main line near Hinton 200 miles west of Edmonton was undermined by rising flood waters and declared unsafe.

TRAFFIC IIALTED

Highway traffic between Edmon- ton and Jasper has been halted by washed out bridges.

The rampaging Athabaskii swept away ferry towers and at least three dwellings, besides forcing evacuation of other homes.
