WASHINGTON, April 13-(AP) -The United States responded wllh a firm "no" today to a pro- posal by Britain to let Red China help write the Japanese peace treaty.

Rebuffed at the same time was a British suggestion that the treaty contain 8 clause returning Formosa to Red China.

The State Department an- nounced the American stand shortly before Ambassador John Foster Dulles was scheduled to fly to Tokyo to speed the Japan- ese settlement. ' Dulles, American spokesman in the treaty ncgotia-” tions. has the mission also of try- ing to resolve Japanese uncer- tainties resultln-g from the re- moval of Gen. MacArthur.

The British proposal to give the Chinese Communists a voice in the treaty-making despite their attacks on UN. forces in Korea was put forward in an in- formal memorandum swbmitted to Dulles early this month by the British ambassador. Sir Olver Franks.

U. 8. Statement g The State Department's rejec- tion was given in a statement read to reporters by press officer Michael J. McDci-molt:

"The United States decognlzcs the Nationalist Government of China and has not and does not

contemplate discussions with the Peiping regime regarding the J apanese peace settlement. We

have discussed the treaty with representatives of the Republic of China. (the Nationalists) and have provided the Nationalist Gov- ernment with a copy of the draft treaty. .

”fhe United States has vigor- ously opposed the admission of the Peiping regime to the U. N. We shall continue to follow that policy."

As to Formosa. McDermott not- ed that ”Japan renounced all rights to Formosa at the surren- der." He added: "United States policy toward Formosa remains as repeatedly stated since the outbreak of aggression in Korea."

Th-at policy is to keep the is- land neutralized from the Korean conflict with the aid of the U. 5. Seventh Fleet, and to leave its ultimate status to be decided in the future in consultation with other governments and the U.N.

Officials discounted the possib- ility of a wide open split with Britain over the treaty or of a serious delay in working out terms. t

Ses-ious Sit pneveloping In Iran

By Suleiman Shamloo

TE!-lR.AN."Iran. April 13 -(AP? -National Front deputies walked out of a crisis meeting of Parlia- ment tonlght and temporarily spiked chances for a vote of con- fidence in Premier Hussein Ala's Government. which is struggling with a new wave of violence.

The deputies had been called to deal with mounting tensions caus- ed by rioting in t-he southern oil fields which Thursday killed 14 persons. including two British engineers. and by reports offresh unrest in the north-where Iran shares the frontier with Russia.

Ala had asked for a vote of con- fldence to show united support of the government in dealing with what he called Iran's "most criti- cal and dangerous moments in history."

nation

"certain reports reach us from other parts of Iran," the Premier told the House, but did not elab- oratc.

A deputy told newspaper men he had heard "reports of unrest in Northern Iran." he had no de- tails.

In the House debate. angry members of the National Front- whlch has pressed for government seizure of Iran's vast oil wealth, including the British-controlled Anglo-Iranian Oil Company - walked out. leaving the House without a quorum. The House ad- journed. It will meet tomorrow to act on the confidence issue.

The threatening situation was highlighted today by a noisy Communist-led demonstration in Tehran of 7.000 persons demand- ing an end to British control of the country's oil.

OTTAWA. April 13 - (GP) - The Canadian Government was told today that development of the St. Lawrence scaway project will "cripple" the Maritime Provinces.

Clarle Glllls (CCF - Cape Bret- on South) said in the Commons there always has been "total op- position" to the project in thc

Maritimes. some members faorn the Maritimes challenged his state- ment nnd supported the project along with representatives from

Ontario and Western Canada.

The discussion was on a 810.000 item lnthe Transport Department. estimates to cover expenses in con- ncction with st. Lawrence ship canal surveys and investigations.

Mr. Gillis spoke before Transport Minister Chevrier rejected a re- quest for establishment of a par- liamentary committee to study how the project will affect Canada's existing transportation system.

Mr. Chevrier said there was nothing before the Chamber that he could refer to a committee. If the long-standing agreement for joint development of the 2.000-mile seaway from the Atlantic to the Great Lakes is passed by the Un- lied States Congress this year it will be placed before Parliament.

If the U. S. does not pass the

agreement. before Congress every year since 1941. then the Canadian- Government will have to reconsider its position.

The request for a parllanientaigv committee came from Howard Green (P0 -- Vancouver-Quadral who said the legislative committee of the Railway Brotherhoods of Canada had expressed their oppos- ition to the seaway in a brief sub- mitted yesterday to the Govern- ment.

Mr. Chevrier said the Brotlier- hoods and the railways in United States have always been opposed to the project.

To Hear Case Foril Single Zoning System

OTTAWA. April 13 - (CP) - A major change in Prince Ed- ward Islandls freight-rate set-up will be considered by the Board of Transport Commissioners at hearings opening June 5 in Chat- lotletown.

The board will hear an ap- plication on behalf of the P. E. I. Potato Shippei'e' Advisory Asso- ciation for the establishment of a single-rate zone on the Island.

At present, P.l:.l. is divided into two zones for the shipment of freight, with the result that- poiatoes shipped from different points on the island carry su-b- stsntlally. different f r o is h t' charges. It has been argued that P.l:.l.'s area is too small for'Iuch a division. ,

The growers have been joined in their application to the Trans- port Board by the Transportation Commission of the Maritime Board of Trade.

Hear Warnings Of Impending lied Air Strike

By DON HUTH

TOKYO. April 14 - isaturciayi A (AP) - United Nations troops trust deeper into North Korea along a 120-mile front Friday while the 11.8. Far East air comm rider gravely warned of impending Communist air attacks on Allied front-line soldiers and installa- tions.

Lt.- Gen. George E. Strate- meyer. Allied air commander, reported bunmlstakable evid- ence" iliat the Red air force is preparing all-out support of Chinese and North Korean ground forces.

Thus far the Reds have kept their Russian-built planes, mostly Mlg jets. based in Manclulria where Allied planes are forbidden to venture.

Stratemeyer said at least six new Red alrfields were being construct- ed ln Korea. between Manchurla and the front lines just north of the the 38th parallel.

In ground action Friday, Amer- ican troops fought forward on hands and knees to win new mountain positions on the western front. AP correspondent John Ran- dolph anld three small Red coun- ter-attacks were repulsed.

An Allied tank-lnfa.nti'y force on the west-central front entered Yongchon. seven miles north of the old boundary line, and found it deserted.

On the central front. Allied troops captured a dominating ridge south of the important Hwacixon reservoir.

Beds Retreat

Elsewhere along the line. gains were made against light to moder- ate resistance as the Reds pulled back.

Stratemeyeml warning of pre- parations for strong Red aerial nt- tacks on the ground coincided with an Air Force announcement in Washington that two U. S. B-29 Superfortresses were shot down by Red jets Thursday near the Yalu River. Three other B-:93 were lost earlier to Communist air action.

A memorandum sent to all Le- gion branches-and signed by Al- fred Watts of Vancouver. Domin- ion president. was issued publicly today. The Lcgion already denies membership to members of the Communist Party.

The new memo said the Com- munisi neacc programs in the democratic countries are simply efforts to weaken Western rearms- ment while Russia rearms. Any members who participate in them will be liable for suspension or expulsion under a section of the Legion by-laws covering acts considered seditious, disloyal or unworthy.

The Legion for some time has told members they will be ex- pelled for belonging to the Labor- Progressive or Communist Party.

The new memorandum urged members to "deal as diligently with this situation as they have done with '0peratlon Prepared- ness! The enemy within can be more dangerous than the enemy without."

He was replying to Percy Black (PC--Cumberland). Mr. Chevrier said no part of the 52.000000 voted by Parliament last year for the Cariso project was spent. An amount of 51.000000 was placed in this year's estimates for work on the project.

Several other estimates of in- terest to the Maritimes were dis- cussed. An amount of 51.660090 has been set aside to cover cost of the enlargement and imnrovr-- ment of terminal and dock facilit- ies at North Sydnev, N. s.. ter-
