SOU>IBRS ~ ~ L. T. -DELCO. FRIDAY, JUNE 20 , 195 8 (given by Allan Jackson.L.T.in Alas k a) The Soviet Union and Communist . East Germany are still using those nine American soldiers - for political blackmail. Today we sent another protest to Moscow - but a Soviet spokesman saya in advance, it's no uae. Khrushchev repeats:- the rate of the aoldiera - ia up to Xut Germany. And the Bait Germana refuse to releue the Allericana - without virtual cl1pl011&tic recognition by vaah1ngton. Today, our Anay Coaander in Europe, General Hodea - spent ■oat of hie ti■e between the Baat Oer11an officials and the Soviet Liaiaon Officer attached to hia headquarters. The result - a blank. an The nine Aaerican aoldiera are still 1nABaat oeraan Jail, with no indication when they will be released. NOTE The latest American note to Moscow - is a counter-attack against Soviet propaganda. The subject - the ac1ent1f1c talks due to begin on July First. Last Friday, I n ~~ v a JChrushchev note arrived in Washington - sayI~ · .fttir a scientific conference means - u ban on atomic teats. Today 1 a American note flatly denies thia. OUr govenaent pointing out - the forthcOllling conference will determine whether or not - a ban 11 poaaible. Vi th ne1 ther aide coaaitted to anything~ NOSCOII Today's demonstration in Moscow - was something unusual for the Soviet capital. The Soviet tyranny - not encouraging the citizens - to go out onto the streets and shout political slogans. That is - except under direction of the COIIIIUniSt Party. Today demonstrators attacked the Danish Babaaay in Noacow. They carried signs reading, "Long Live the Hungarian Peoples• Republic!" And they threw sticks and atones at the Blllbaaay. The Soviet police did not interfere - but they kept the crowd moving, and no 0111 was hurt. The de110natration - retaliatlon tor what happened~ ~ Raeian Bmbae, in Copenhagen. A crowd ot Danes, proteat1'lg the execution or Imre Nagy - by attacking the main Soviet building in Denmark - the Soviet Bmbaaay. The Secretary General of the U.N. today held a long conference - with the Premier of Lebanon. Dag Hammarskjold and Sam1 ea Solh, trying to work out a plan - for the U.H. to bring peace back to Lebanon. The Lebanese Premier ls reported to have said - he's satisfied with what the U.N. has done so far. But he still believes - a real international police force will have to be sent to the border between Lebanon and Syria. S•1 ea Solh arguing - Syrian infiltration will not cease - until there are aold1er1 on guard to prevent it. CYPRUS British planes were out over Cyprus today. They w1ren•t attacking targets on that Mediterranean island. They scattered leaflets - describing the new Macmillan plan for Cyprus. The plan that would make the Turks and the Greeks junior partners of the British - for seven years. After which, the final sovereignty would be decided. Despite the leaflets - violence continued. Both Oreeka and Turks - rejecting the Macmillan plan. Today the . two ethnic groups fought furiously - 1n the city or L1maasol. The a1tuat1on, so tenae - the British have imposed a d•ytime curfew on Lillasaol. And 110re troopa are arriving by air - from the United Kingdom. Oovemor Sir Hugh Poot now haa thirty thousand men - and in Nikosia they aay he's likely to need every one or them. Every day now, it seems as 1r the Greek and Turkish Cypriots - are bracing tor a full-scale civil war. PHILIPPINE Around Washin gton , they 1 re saying tonight - Garcia brought the mesaage to Eisenhower. This, a reference to the Joint communique signed by Dwight D. Eisenhower and Carlos Garcia.

Our Secretary of coanerce concentrated on - the - domestic angle. secretary weeks, ,-n;tq noting that international trade provides Jobs for over four million Americans - seven per cent of our labor force.
