Western and Communist delegates at the nine nation Far Eastern conference in Geneva hit a new deadlock over whether Communists should sit on the truce supervision commission. Molotov argued for Communist representation, while the West resisted. Pham Van Dong urged a one task body to control outside arms and troops, a stance challenged by France which wants the commission to oversee all cease fire aspects including regrouping forces and policing gates.

Screech and Creep Nightmare Problems in Supersonic Flight
Cleveland scientists and engineers tackle the nightmare problems of screech and creep in supersonic flight. NACA officials describe screech as intense jet exhaust tones that cause structural damage and driver risk, while creep is skin buckling from extreme heat at high speeds. Officials detail efforts to mitigate these issues by pushing altitudes and speeds, as part of open house observations at SAGAS Tours Flight Propulsion Laboratories. Clean up for Friday lists streets to be cleared in a wide city schedule including North Bent and West Fifth Streets.
