Report Cohn Offers To Resign NEW YORK. (AP)-Roy Cohn. storm centre of the Senate perma- nent investigations sub-committee was reported Monday to have sub- mitted his resignation as chief counsel. Cohn, a New York lawyer. co- starred with Senator Mccarthy in recent Washington hearings in which the army accused them of bringing improper pressure on be- half of army Pte. G. David Schlne, former sub-committee aide. The Chicago Tribune and The New York Daily Mirror quoted Cohn as saying he had tendered his resignation. Cohn could not be reached for comment on the re- ports. His family here said he was out of town. The Tribune in a dispatch from Washington quoted Cohn as say- inc: "I feel that my helpfulness to the sub - committee has been brought to the vanishing point. In any future investigation in which I appeared as chief counsel. all the slanders voiced against me would be repeated to minimize the evidence presented." NOT RECEIVED YET In Washington. Mccarthy said: "I have received no resignation If one was sent. 1 hope it gets lost in the malls. I have urged that he not submit a I signation." The Wisconsin Republican said "several? staff members have of- fered to resign. but that "I have urged them 'not to." The Tribune quoted McCarthy as saying the departure of Cohn would be "one of the greatest victories ever scored by the Communist. party of the United states." The Tribune said that at a sub- committee meeting scheduled fo. today Cohn faced possible ouster and that senators Everett Dirksen. (Rep. Ill.) and Karl E. Mundt (Rep. S.D.) suggested a resigna- tion would "ease the situation." The New York Mirror said Cohn disclosed that "three or four" other staff members will resign oooh.

One main obstacle to peace was overcome Monday when it was agreed to ask Canada. India and Poland to serve on an armistice supervisory commission. Cables were sent. to the three governments during the day. The cables to the two Common- wealth powers. Canada and India. were sent by Eden.

External Affairs Minister Pearson met with officials of the external affairs department to consider the invitation. (A report from New Delhi said India is likely.) Agreement was also in sight on delineation of the truce line- France proposed the 18th Plmnel and the Communists suggested the loan. They were reported willing, however. to consider a line in the region of the 17th parallel. A last-minute hitch developed over the Communist demands on Laos. The Communists were re- ported to have agreed weeks ago to the withdrawal of all invading Vietminh troops from Laos and Cambodia. ' possibilities Francis Carr. James N.
