Ike Says Canal Use Is Must
President Eisenhower reaffirmed U S recognition of Egypt's sovereignty while insisting on a peaceful solution to the Suez crisis that guarantees continued international use of the canal. He said Nasser misreads the term internationalized and that the 1888 treaty does not transfer ownership. The president hinted at a Western plan for international supervision to be shown in Cairo and voiced hope for a peaceful settlement despite questions over French troop movements. Egyptian envoy Ahmed Hussein protested Dulles remarks that framed the canal as internationalized.
