By wannnu Rooms m. WASHINGTON (AP) -— Ameri- can ofificials said Sunday the

" United States hopes to start talks " with Red China at Warsaw

the next few days on ways to safeguard peace in the For East. These oflficials said lions have gone out to U.S. Am- bassador Jacob Beam to stand by for word from his Red Chinese counterpart in Warsaw, Ambas- sador Wang Ping-nan. . The White House announced Saturday, after an extraordinary meeting between President Eis- enhower and members of the Nvae honal Security Council, that Beam was ready to resume the stalled U.S.‘Red Chma' talks. This move

' came in response to an offer by

0011an Premier Chou Eu-l-ni to renew negotiation-s.

Chou’s statement was the first
