to be with 400 yards of the heart of the bastion, closer than ever before.
French High Commissioner fo Indochina Maurice de Jean said in Hanoi that, naturally, he was worried about the worsening situation at Dien Bien Phu but added that the situation was equally difficult for the Communists, who have suffered more than 20,000 casualties in their 55-day campaign to take the fortress.
American and British diplomats at the Geneva conference were attempting to get assurances from Pacific and southeast Asian nations that they would put up a solid front against renewed Communist aggression after the Indochina truce is negotiated.
Gen. Hull, in Singapore for conferences with high British military officials, underscored the importance of Dien Bien Phu as a Red propaganda objective rather than as a military prize.
Gen. John E. Hull, United Nations and U.S. supreme commander in the Far East, said in Singapore he was confident the fortress would remain under control of the French.
The Geneva conference was in two-day recess. Debate on Korea
will resume Friday and the Indochina talks are expected to begin Monday.
Other International developments:
Colombo—A high official source in Ceylon said his government has given a second airlift of American planes ferrying French troops to Indochina permission to refuel at Ceylon. India has refused to allow U.S. planes to fly over the subcontinent.
Athens-Reports reaching Athens said new earthquakes had ruined the village of Soupi in central Greece. The series of earthquakes since Friday has killed 25 persons.
David L. Johnston was elected president and Marshall Brown vice president of the University American Institute of Chemical Engineers.
