Russian Bloc Hints
II Favors Further
Secret Arms Talks
BY the Associoted Press

PARIS, Dec. 15.-The Soviet
bloc today rejected revised West
ern disarmament plan drawn up
specially to meet some of MoScow's
demands.
The Russian bloc hinted, in
stead, it would like to see the Big
-Four powers continue discussing
arms control In secret sessions.
Polish Delegate Stefan Wier-
blowski disclosed the Soviet bloc's
position in a speech to the Po-
litical Committee of the U. N.
General Assembly. He repeated
Soviet demands for immediate
prohibition of atomic bombs and
a cut of one-third in the arms
strength of the United States,

Britain and France prefer to
carry on negotiations on arms
control in a 12-nation disarma-
ment commission expected to be
created by this assembly.
Possibilities for Continuing.
He did not give a fiat mo" to
suggestions by Wierblowski and
some other delegates that perhaps
the Big Four should continue their
arms talk. but said the West thinks
"the new commission is the proper
forum for development of the
process"
Mr.. Wierblowski had said that,
while subcommittee made up of
the Big Four did not attain full
results in its recent talks, there,
had been some agreement and pos
sibilities exist for continuation.
Although the Soviet bloc will not
accept the major points of the
Western resolution, Russia is ex-
pected to sit on the new commits
sion and press her ideas in that
group as far as possible.
DR.. Jessup told the committee
yesterday that substantial changes
had been made in the three-power
plan for starting ornaments talks,
but that the West had not yielded
ground on the basic, fundamental
points Of disagreement.
Other Actions i'm u. N.
