Asian Plan Urged for Cease-Fire
Western leaders at a Far Eastern conference consider a plan to give non Communist Asian nations the major role in supervising any Indochina cease fire. The proposal would expand a nine power parley with Asian members and possibly Sweden and Switzerland as neutrals. If approved the plan could counter Russia’s four nation commission proposal and challenge Chou En Lai’s Asia for the Asians stance. Western experts doubt Reds would accept but see strong propaganda value for Asians. Military talks between French and Vietminh commanders to discuss regrouping forces accompany the political talks. End goal is to determine the war's potential end by week’s close.
