But Egypt balked. -In Cairo. an Egyptian Suez Canal authority spokesman said authori- ties will not even comment on the plan until the last British and French soldiers pull out of tbs Medlterraneah terminal. That appeared to mean a reieo tlon since the British-French com- manders said their salvage fleet will go out with the troops it no agreement is reached beforehand. British naval authorities said the plan was sent to ifammarskjold by the UN chiefs in Egypt. It simply calls for salvage crews to change from military to civilian clothes and stay on the job. STICKING TO STAND Egypt agreed to the use of Brit- ish-French salvage ships already in Port Said but drew the line on allowing their crews to work on the blocked canal. Cairo sources in touch with President Nasser's government said they are sure Egypt will stick to this stand. Suez Canal authority officials privately disputed the British con- tention that to reiect the British- French crews would double the time required to clear the canal. They asserted Britain was try- mg to make it appear Egypt was delaying the canal clearance and thereby damagin the conomles of such friends of Ellyllt as Cey- ion and Indonesia.

QUICK DECISION ESSENTIAL A French government spokes- man in Paris said the decision would have to be made ”withln a few hours." , Vice - Admiral L. F. Durnford- Slater. commander of British na- val force here. said he and French naval heads had agreed to put their sailor in civilian clothes on their salvage ships if the UN will guarantee their safety. He said Maj.-Gen. E. L. M. Burns. commander of UN emer- gcncy force here. and U-.S. Lt.- Gen Raymond A. Wheeler. UN chief of the canal clearing opera- tion. had agreed to his conditions, and had made that recommenda- tion to l-lammarskjold. Burns and Wheeler came here to iron out the wrangle over clear- ing the canal and opening the way for tankers to resume supplying Middle East oil to Europe. In New York, Hammarskjold conferred with a seven-nation ad- visory committee appointed on Suez problems. It was assumed he would consult with Nasser on the proposition. Egypt has onsentcd to the use of the British - French salvage fleet. but has objected to the use of the crews on the grounds that she could not guarantee their safety.

He said he hopes the tbcfi will not mean the end of the company, but it was too early to make pre- dlctlons.
