Tito Returns From Talks BELGRADE (AP) - President Tilo will return lo Belgrade today froni his Yalta .'conference with Russian leaders, an authorit* htive source said. . Tito's trip, he said, apparently failed to settle a policy row wlthlh thc higher ranks of Communism. Tito left his capital for Russia a weftk ago .with Soviet Commu- nlst party s c c r*e t a r y Nikita Khrusljchcv for'what, was billed as a vacation on the Soviet Crimea. Khrushchev had been in Yugoslavia on what also was described officially as a vacation. But reliable sources here said bolh visits, actually were for crucial discussion of party matters- admitted "differences of ideological- nature" between Yugoslavia and Russia. STRONG INDICATION Tito's return" after only a week ls seen hcrc as strong indication that the Crimea conference failed to clear up the differences. Communist sources here said Tito, went to Russia .to help Khrushchev defend himself against growing criticism by other, Kremlin leaders who fear results of Khrushchev's dc - Stalinizalion policy. Despite Tito's visit, the sources here said, Khrushchcy's opponents have not relented.

For Western UN By FRANCIS W. CARPENTER UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. CAP) -The Western Big Three struggled Thursday for. unity' in the United- Nations Security Council on thc Suez Canal crisis—amid criticism of 'the 'United States from abroad, ^ especially, from France. The council convenes today to begin debate on the canal issue. For the* first time in its history, foreign ministers of thc tinted States, Britain, France and Soviet Union will sit in the councl, plus foreign ministers' from Belgium and Yugoslavia. As' the West conferred on a common approach to the problem Andre Lc T r o q u e r, Socialist speaker of the French National Assembly denounced what hc called the "near impotence" of U.S.Suez policy and blamed it on the election campaign. MAJOR OBJECTIONS • Some British circles also have been critical of U.S. State Secretary Dulles but spokesman for the British and French delegations hcre sought to minimize any disagreements."'They said all three countries are united on thc major objective, a solution of thc canal crisis based on international law and justice. ' Tlic .council faces a possible procedural snag at the start. Israel Thursday repeated he> request to be heard when the council- debate touches oh the unrestricted ipassage of all ships, including Israeli vessels, through the canal. In a counter - request, seven Arab countries want to' speak when the debate touches on items having a special interest for Syria Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Yemen, Libya or Jorda/i. Egypt already has been invited to speak, TWO MAIN ITEMS The council will meet to consider two items: 1. A complaint by Britain and France against Egypt's "unilateral action" ending thc system of international operation of the Suez Canal. '2. A complaint by Egypt that some powers, particularly France and Britain, have endangered peace and violated the UN charter. The council put both items, in that order, on its work sheet last week.

Some reports said they shouted "•we want to go home" and glasses were thrown. The 21 arc being held under close arrest on unspecified charges. ■ i iM May Switch Salk Vaccine To Commercial ■ OITAWA (CP)-Canada's Salk polio vaccine supply may eventually be switched to commercial from university sources with significant portions coming from United States firms, federal health authorities said Thursday. ' They emphasized, however, that this may not happen for another two years or more. At the moment, all of "Canada's supplies originate at the Toronto Connaught Laboratories, but fairly large commercial shipments are expected from th'e U.S. shortly. ' Health Minister Martin announced 'that the Eli Lilly Company of Indianapolis has been licensed to ship the vaccine to Canada. Officials said import applications from other America'n firms are being studied, SWITCH SOURCE, It appeared possible that once sufficient supplies for. Canada's needs are ensured by commercial sources, such subsidized producers as the^ Cdhnaught Laboratories and the Montreal Institute of Microbiology, which is expected to start shipping vaccine late this fall, may switch to other medical research. Canada Imported small amounts of American polio vaccine .early last year. But shipments were, halted when the U.S. discovered that some defective American supplies had entered the supply rnvkct. Since that time the Toronlo Con- naught- 'Laboratories have been the only, Canadian, source. Slots have been,'distributed free . to school children under a federal provincial immunization program.

Tito Returns From Talks BELGRADE (AP) - President Tilo will return lo Belgrade today froni his Yalta .'conference with Russian leaders, an authorit* htive source said. . Tito's trip, he said, apparently failed to settle a policy row wlthlh thc higher ranks of Communism. Tito left his capital for Russia a weftk ago .with Soviet Commu- nlst party s c c r*e t a r y Nikita Khrusljchcv for'what, was billed as a vacation on the Soviet Crimea. Khrushchev had been in Yugoslavia on what also was described officially as a vacation. But reliable sources here said bolh visits, actually were for crucial discussion of party matters- admitted "differences of ideological- nature" between Yugoslavia and Russia. STRONG INDICATION Tito's return" after only a week ls seen hcrc as strong indication that the Crimea conference failed to clear up the differences. Communist sources here said Tito, went to Russia .to help Khrushchev defend himself against growing criticism by other, Kremlin leaders who fear results of Khrushchev's dc - Stalinizalion policy. Despite Tito's visit, the sources here said, Khrushchcy's opponents have not relented.

For Western UN By FRANCIS W. CARPENTER UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. CAP) -The Western Big Three struggled Thursday for. unity' in the United- Nations Security Council on thc Suez Canal crisis—amid criticism of 'the 'United States from abroad, ^ especially, from France. The council convenes today to begin debate on the canal issue. For the* first time in its history, foreign ministers of thc tinted States, Britain, France and Soviet Union will sit in the councl, plus foreign ministers' from Belgium and Yugoslavia. As' the West conferred on a common approach to the problem Andre Lc T r o q u e r, Socialist speaker of the French National Assembly denounced what hc called the "near impotence" of U.S.Suez policy and blamed it on the election campaign. MAJOR OBJECTIONS • Some British circles also have been critical of U.S. State Secretary Dulles but spokesman for the British and French delegations hcre sought to minimize any disagreements."'They said all three countries are united on thc major objective, a solution of thc canal crisis based on international law and justice. ' Tlic .council faces a possible procedural snag at the start. Israel Thursday repeated he> request to be heard when the council- debate touches oh the unrestricted ipassage of all ships, including Israeli vessels, through the canal. In a counter - request, seven Arab countries want to' speak when the debate touches on items having a special interest for Syria Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Yemen, Libya or Jorda/i. Egypt already has been invited to speak, TWO MAIN ITEMS The council will meet to consider two items: 1. A complaint by Britain and France against Egypt's "unilateral action" ending thc system of international operation of the Suez Canal. '2. A complaint by Egypt that some powers, particularly France and Britain, have endangered peace and violated the UN charter. The council put both items, in that order, on its work sheet last week.

' They emphasized, however, that this may not happen for another two years or more. At the moment, all of "Canada's supplies originate at the Toronto Connaught Laboratories, but fairly large commercial shipments are expected from th'e U.S. shortly. ' Health Minister Martin announced 'that the Eli Lilly Company of Indianapolis has been licensed to ship the vaccine to Canada. Officials said import applications from other America'n firms are being studied, SWITCH SOURCE, It appeared possible that once sufficient supplies for.
