Knowland of California that the free nations should not accept any Khrushchev conditions which weakened the U.N. Knowland told a news conference he considered a fundamental issue to be whether the Soviet government, or any other country, "can in effect unilaterally change the procedure of the U.N. by fiat of its own." If this is permitted, he said, it will "in effect have undetermined and ultimately jeopardized the future existence of the organization." Knowland's views are among a considerable flow of congressional opinion that the White House is receiving informally. An idea put forward by Sen. Hubert II.

Humphrey Minn), is that Prime Minister Ben Our-ion of Israel and representatives of the Arab states should be included in any summit conference on the Middle Last.

U.S. officials said it seems certain that the meeting will be held. But here and in other Western capitals the view was that the opening day suggested by Khrushchev, next Monday, is much too soon. Diplomats estimated it would a 1 ,1., taKC WO 01 HUei ui ms- tiations to determine exactly what countries should be included and what procedures should govern discussions. Nothing quite like the proposed historic conference has ever been held at the U.N, security council in New York.

Recognition of this was reflect- Watsonville Chief Claims 'Disloyalty' Hopping-mad Watsonville Police Chief Frank Osincr today charged that some of his officers have "no more loyalty than a rat" Osmer leveled the charge while disclaiming that he personally reduced prostitution charges against three women and cut. their bail from $500 to $100, hence allowing them to skip town. A story in a San Francisco paper this morning cfaimed that Osmer did both. The story was allegedly written on a tip from a Watsonville source.

"This whole thing is purely po Utical.n said Osmer. Background in the cae is this: Past Thursday a Watsonville police officer entered a house at 381 Locust street as a potential customer and asscrtedly was solicited by Gloria Marino, 22. who icportedly accepted marked money in advance payment for her services. The Marino woman. Delores Maxine Barksdale, 34.

and Lily Vera Wiikins, 32. were subse-ouentlv arrested by Lt. Robert Hoffman and Sgt. Wallace Jes-sup. The three women were questioned in Watsonville and later brought to the county jail here.

Shortly after the woman hed been forwarded to Santa Cruz, Osmer, then on a two-week military leave, showed up at the sta Hon. He told officers to bring the girls back and set bail at $100. "I didn't know bail had previously seen set at $500," said Osmer, who says there is no bail scheduled at the Watsonville station. "I just recommeded we set bail at $100, Osmer said "Nobody told me any different." Asked how they determined bail, the chief said his office uses its own discretion. Under law, only a judge can set bail.

Normally, a judge will give law enforcement agencies a schedule, so that he will not have to be bothered at night. Osmer said one of the girls had been originally booked on a prostitution charge on a booking slip, but that on the jail register, all were charged with lewd, idle and dissolute conduct under the vagrancy section of the penal code. "That's what we always book these girls on." the chief said. "It's easy to make our case. We're not trying to protect anybody." On Monday, the three women were scheduled to be arraigned in court, but failed to appear.

Judge James Scoppettone, sitting in for vacationing Judge Charles Franich, ordered bail forfeited and $1000 bench warrants be issued for the women. "This is strictly a routine affair," said Osmer, while saying the publicity in the case was a result of some people trying to stir up trouble. While saying some of his officers have "no more loyalty than a rat," he said some of his men were obviously on the other side of the fence. Osmer did not spell out precisely in which way he thought his officers were disloyal. "I couldn't give anyone protection even if I wanted to," Osmer asserted.

"My men are responsible for everything that goes on in their areas during shift and they have standing orders to make all necessary arrests Admiral Disappears From Liner San Francisco II). Disappearance of Rear Adm. L. C. Quiggle from the President Cleveland at sea was reported today.

Public Guardian Program Is Being Studied Bv Board A study on the feasibility of installing a new type puhlic guardianship program in the county was started this morning by the joint study committee on county welfare. Supervisor Hulda McLean, chairman of the study committee, re ported that members were assigned to various work problems to delve into the program approved by the state legislature last September.

French Ambassador Herve Alphand said today Premier De Gaulle "is not in favor" of a summit conference within the United Nations security council in New York at this time. But he later issued a statement leaving completely in doubt whether De Gaulle finally would refuse to attend. Alphand called on Secretary of State Dulles and told newsmen afterward "We want real results, and we don't think the security council is a good place." He added "it was clear from our reply we are not in favor." Soviet Premier Khrushchev, he said, was "certainly either mistaken or he did not attempt read it (De Gaulle's answer) to well," if he believed the French leader accepted Khrushchev's bid. Newsmen understood Alphand to mean that De Gaulle would not attend any summit meeting within the security council framework which might be arranged within the next few weeks. However, Alphand, on returning to the embassy, authorized a statement which said: "The ambassador never said that Gen.

De Gaulle would not attend a summit meeting of the security council. "He simply said that he had not been informed of any change in the French position which had been stated in the letter of Gen. De Gaulle to Mr. Khrushchev." In answering Khrushchev Tues. day, De Gaulle called for the U.

N. to "continue its debates'" on the Middle East problem. He implied that this should be done on the same level as has been the case in other U. N. debates.
