Jack Norris said he asked Davison about the kidnap scheme after the sheriff’s office here received a call from Sheriff Bill Nicholson of Seminole County, Okla. Nicholson said a 19-year-old girl, apparently Miss Snow, ;had told him two men let her in on a plan to abduct the i famous singer’s wife. The girl said one of the men had threatened her life. And she told newsmen at Wewoka, Okla.: "I am deathly afraid.” “After we got the call from i the Oklahoma sheriff,” Sergt. U. S. Discerns Barbs In Red A-Talk Note Continued From First Page 1 at Geneva on July 1 as Presi- ' dent Eisenhower had suggested . last Tuesday. The State Department said, , however, that the Gromyko | note “has Inaccurately stated other points already agreed upon with respect to the con- i vening of the talks." “We intend to seek early clarification of these points through diplomatic channels.” the State Department said, “in order that the talks may go forward as scheduled.” These were the things to which the State Department objected: 1. Mr. Eisenhower’s last let ter said the United States side would consist of the United States, Britain, France, and possibly other countries. But the latest Gromyko note said the United States side would consist of the three Western Norris said, “we brought this guy downstairs and he said yes —he was in on the kidnap plan.” Sergt. Norris said Davison has previous convictions on grand theft auto, armed robbery and forgery. Kilng Still at Large The sergeant said Davisbn was arrested Memorial Day in connection with a *25.000 supermarket robbery. Kling got away and is still at large, the officer said. Davison told a newsman here he considered another kidnap ing. too. “I thought about kidnaping this big spender who was buy | ing all the furs and things for those movie people,” he said. •j “Wasn’t his name Trujillo?” Davison was referring to Lt. Gen. Rafael Trujillo jr„ son of ithe Dominican Republic strong . man. powers and / the Soviet side would consist of Russia, Poland and Czechoslovakia. The United States is expected to tell Mos cow that it must reserve the right to bring in other coun tries If it desires. 2. On another point related to representatives at the talks, the Soviet note expressed regret that it had not been possible to reach agreement on includ ing India and possibly other cold war neutrals. Mr. Gromyko dealt with the Indian question as one on which the United States had slammed the door. Under the expected clarifica tion on this point, the way pre sumably would be held open to bring Indian scientists in at a later date just as under the first point the United States might bring in Japanese scien tists and the Russians might bring in Red Chinese later on. 3. The Gromyko note said the Soviet government . “proceeds from the assumption that the work of the experts will be con : eluded in a short time, and that i as a result agreement will be i reached on the suspension of nuclear weapons testa by all powers possessing them.” Mr. Eisenhower has insisted from the first that the talks should be held without any commitment on either side about stopping nuclear tests.
