Bidault and Molotov discuss cease fire supervision in Geneva
French Foreign Minister Bidault and Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov held a useful exchange on supervising the proposed cease fire in China. They considered including one Communist nation and one Western nation in a supervising body with three Asian nations as a base. They opposed a neutral commission with equal Communist and non Communist seats. They also touched on accelerating Geneva military talks, which had shown little progress. Meanwhile Congress actions loom as Speaker Martin and Senate Leader Knowland push for July 31 adjournment and Eisenhower policy support. Defense asks authority to build 25,000 housing units on bases at 350 million dollars. Democrats show uncertainty on a general income tax cut even as some back exemptions and potential higher military spending in Indo China.
