The British view is that early defence talks would seriously jeop- ardize the Geneva meeting and ' would lose the Western powers the sympathy of most of the states in southeast Asia.

Says Churchill Nol 'lo-iieilre Before Election

. 6 LONDON (AP)-Prime Minister

c-:-

suraiices today that he has no in- tention of retiring before the next general election.

This would normally mean will although an election might be called before then.

John Harvey, acting chairman of the Conservatives in the Wood- ford district that Churchill repre- sents in Parliament, spiked retire- ment rumors at a political garden party Saturda;-.

Lady Churchill, who has been pressing her 79-year-old husband in step down, was present and heard Harvey declare!

"Sir Winston. subject only to the natural limitation of health and strength. will be representing your

interests in Parliament. at least until the time of the general election.''

Churchill was to be the honored guest at- the garden party until he decided on the trip to Wash- ingion.

CALLS EDEN "IIEIII"

Housing Minister Harold Mac- millan, speaklng at the same meet- ing, described Foreign Secretary Eden as "Sir Winston's political heir," but made no direct refer- ence to Churchill's possible retire- ment in the immediate future. There has been speculation that Churchill may turn over the prem- iership t.o'Edsn this fall.

But the .latest indications are that he has sidetracked this plan. at least for 0 time being. some pollticilnl thnk the snags at Geneva, and now British-American differences, led him to change his mind. ' Churchill is seen here as still personally directing British foreign policy. '

Sovlei Charges liejecled By U. S.

WASHINGTON (AP)-The U.S. rejected Saturda as without any inundation a sov et charge that the U.S. Navy had seized the l,B40- ion Russian tanker Tuapso last Wodn ay south of the island of Formosa.

Nationalist China announced Fri- day that it had seized the vessel be- cause it was bound for the port of Shanghai on the Red Chinese main- land in defiance of n Nationalist blockade.

In I note to the United States Thursday. Moscow asserted it would take measures to safeguard Soviet ships in the region of For- mosa, where the United States Seventh Fleet operates.

Expect Montreal Man To Head TLC

By JOHN LEBLANO Cnnadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CF)-Labor observers are predicting the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada, the country's largest union body, likely will choose this year its first French-Canadian president in 45 years.

With the TLC: annual conven- tion two months away, Claude Jo- doin, ll-year-old vice - president from Montreal. is conceded the in- side frack at this stage of the race for the post held 12 years by re- tiring president Percy R. Ben- gough of Vancouver.

Chances of the burly Dress- makers' Union officer have been enhanced by a decision of Gordon G. Cushing, general secretary - treasurer and strongly - favored prospect. not to run for the office regarded as about the most in- fluentisl in Canadian labor. Cushing. who moved to his pres- ent job in 1949 from the secretary- ship of the TLC's Calgary district council, said recently he would run for the yl98IdEnC,y if he was nom- lnnted at the Regina convention in last August. But today he said in an interview he has changed his mind.

”Iim pretty sure I won't be A candidate." the 39-year-old officer said.
