Dulles on Return
Sees Core Of Unity
Set by Agreements
By the Associated Press

Secretary of State Dulles, re-
turning from London in an evi-
IDENTIFY jubilant mood, said today
the agreements reached there
give the Atlantic community a
hard core of European unity"
Mr.. Dulles said in a statement
on his arrival at the airport. "the
United States will, I hope, CO.
operate with the result, because
to do so will be very much in our
national interest"
Mr.. Dulles said the agreement
under which Western Germany
will rearm as a member of the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
ton means that the Federal Re-
public'S sovereignty will be re-
stored, land beginning today the
Allied High Commissioners will
forego the exercise of most of
their occupation rights"
Congratulated by Smith.
Mr.. Dulles stepped out of his
plane smiling broadly and wav-
ing a black Homburg. Under
secretary of State Walter Bedell
Smith strode up, shook his hand,
and said simply "Congratula-
tons"
Second to greet the Secretary
was Herbert Hoover, jr., who
succeeds Gen. Smith today as
undersecretary. Also on hand
were the ambassadors of Ger
many, France and Italy-Heinz
Krekeler, Henri Bonnet and AL
berto Tarchiani.
Mr.. Dulles said in his state
ment, read for television. "the
London Conference produced
solid results. 1t worked out a
system, in place of the European
Defense Community, which can
preserve and strengthen the At
lantic Community by giving it a
hard core of European unity"
In this way, he said, the new
plan for West Germany to join
it's neighbors in a European pact
and the broader Community of
North Atlantic Treaty Powers.
"salvages many of the features
of the edo plan"
Vitality of Community.
This plan, rejected by the
French Parliament. would have
set up German troops as part of
a tightly unified European
army.

House.
Mr.. Mendes-France and Mr..
Adenauer chatted gaily as the
bulky documents were signed,
forgetting their angry exchanges
during the week of feverish
negotiations.
1T Is the duty of all to forget
what has too often divided us in
the past" the French premier
declared, bowling slightly toward
the chancellor.
Before breaking up, the nine
ministers put groups of experts
to work in Bonn and Paris to
hammer out the details of their
broad agreement.
Will Meet October 20.
The Big Four-Mr. Dulles, Mr..
Eden, Mr.. Mendes-France and
Mr.. Adenauer-Will meet in Paris
October 20 to review their aides
work on ending the occupation.
The other five ministers will
join them the next day in the
French capital to take up the
drafts of the instruments on ex-
tension Of the Brussels alliance
and arms control.
And on the following day, the
NATO Council of Ministers will
assemble to consider the entry
of West Germany as their 18th
partner.
Mr.. Mendes- France and Mr..
Adenauer also pressed ahead
with plans for a conference be-
tween thir governments on the
future of the Saar Valley, Ger
man before World War II and
now tied economically to France.
The French want the coal-steel
area controlled by the Brussels
group. The Germans want the
15-nation Council of Europe to
supervise it.
The French Parliament has
said an acceptable settlement
must be reached before it will
approve German rearmament.
Mr.. Mendes- France, anxious to
present a package" solution to
his Assembly, raised the issue at
the London conference but
agreed to work it out in direct
negotiations with the West Ger
mans.

Britain Tells u. n.
Red Arms Proposal
Holds Some Hope
BY the Assoeiosed Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. Oct.
4.-British Minister of State
Selwyn Lloyd said today Russia S
latest disarmament proposals
hold out the possibility of prog
ress in this all important field"
Mr.. Lloyd declared, however,
that Soviet Delegate Andrei Y.
VishinSky left many questions
unanswered in the resolution he
submitted last Thursday. He
said there would have to be
further Qualification before the
full extent of Russia's apparent
policy shift could be determined.
The British Minister made his
comment in a policy declaration
before the 60-nation General
Assembly. Mr.. Vishinsky's reso-
luton accepted as a basis for
discussion a British French
formula advanced in London last
June.
"The fact that our proposals
have at length been accepted as
a basis-I hope there is no mis-
take or misunderstanding about
that" Mr.. Lloyd said. sis a step
forward"
Qualification Asked.
Mr.. Lloyd said the Soviet pro-
posals would require substantial
Qualification on the proposed
control and inspection system.
He asked, for instance, why it
was necessary to have a tenn
porary control agency and later
a permanent one, as Mr.. Vishin-
sky proposed; what would be the
powers of the temporary body;
would it's decision be subject to
the veto in the Security Council?
French Delegate Guerin Du
Bosq de Beaumont also was
scheduled to speak in today's
assembly debate.
II Speakers Listed.
The assembly gathered today
with II speakers still to be heard
in the general policy debate.
U. N. officials figured they would
be finished by Wednesday, and
that the main political commit
tee could organize for the de-
tailed debates on disarmament
before the end of the week.
The 15-nation steering COM
mittee will meet tomorrow to act
on Mr.. Vishinsky's demand that
his disarmament proposals
should be considered as new
item on the agenda.
This promised to bring the
first East-West clash of the as
Sembly on disarmament. The
western countries believe that
Mr.. ViShinsky's proposals should
be considered along with the
disarmament commission report
of its meetings and of the big
power deadlock in the London
talks.

Tomorrow With Pact
SIGNATURE in London
BY the Asseeiuied Press

ROME, Oct. 4.-The Italian
government announced today
the smoldering nine-year-old
dispute between italy and Yugo-
slavia over Trieste will end to-
morrow with signature in Lon
don of a compromise agreement.
Yugoslav Vice Premier Edward
Kardelj said in Oslo last night
that agree ent had been
reached.
A spokesman for Prime Min
lister Mario Scelba said the set
tlement would be signed in Lon
don at / pm. q am. EST to-
morrow, after which the Prime
Minister will report to the TIA
liam senate and chamber of de-
puties and demand a vote of
confidence.
Interviewed by the labor
paper Arbeiderbladet, Mr.. Kar-
deli confirmed preliminary re-
ports that the strategic Adriatic
territory is to be divided between
the two countries largely along
present demarcation lines.
Under the agreement, as Mr..
Kardelj described it and as it
has been reported in Rome:
/. Italy would get the allied
occupied zone A and the port
city of Trieste-86 square miles
with a population of 100000.
Since World War II this zone
has been occupied by British and
American troops.
2. Yugoslavia would get zone
Bib square miles of hinterland
with a population of $4,000,
which Yugoslav troops have oc-
cupied since the war.
Minor frontier adjustments
would give the Yugoslavs some
heights overlooking the harbor
that are now in zone A. A special
provision also would allow Yugo-
slavia port facilities in Trieste
itself and protect minority rights.
First Attempt Failed.
Last October 8 the United
States, Britain and France in
declaration announced they
would turn zone A over to Ital-
ian administration. The allies

The ringing Of the fall school
belE isn't always music to the
ears Of the congressional wife
and mother.
Many find the peals bring with
them the problem Of where to
enroll the cilildren--in the home
State for half q year, transfer
ring here later. or In the District
for the entire term.
The Johnson Children
Mrs. Lyndon johnson, wife Of
the Texas Senator and mother
of two school-age girls. has
formed a firm conviction on the
topic.
"You either have to cut the
pattern to suit your husband or
cut it to suit your children"
In most congressional families,
Daddy generally likes to return
home at the close of Congress to
mend Political fences until the
re-opening in January. The fam
lily is faced with going along to
return in September for the
school year or remaining there,
too. until January.
Up to the present, the john
sons have been enrolling their
eldest daughter, Lynda Bird, 10,
in Texas schools part Of the
year. transferring her to Ben w.
Murch here in January.
THE poor child has really been
to a lot of schools" her mother
explains.
Every congressional wife Is
faced with the school problem,
and Mrs. johnson feels that when
her daughters reach Junior high
age they should 60 to Just one
school for the entire term.
The curriculum and subjects
are varied, and the child's school,
ing suffers, in her opinion. "It is
too hard on a child adjusting
to two new sets Of school friends
each year." she says.
The Johnson's youngest
daughter, Lucy Baines. will enter
third grade this fall.
Its easy for her to adjust"
Mrs. Johnson said. THAT little
soul lands on top Of every situa-
ton"
Ann Mansfield, 16-year-old
daughter Of Senator and Mrs.
Mansfield. started out in nursing
school in Montana.
Since. then. her parents have
enrolled her for q full term in
local schools, namely, Ann Beers,
the Convent Of the Sacred Heart,
st. Ceceila's Academy and now
Marymount School in Arlington.
Uninterrupted Term
1--WE decided" Mrs. Mansfield
explained, that she ought to
have an uninterrupted school
year each term" i
Generally, the Mansfield fam
lily returns to Montana in June
with Ann coming back to school
with her mother in September
while the Senator remains. This
year, Ann will not return home.
Instead" she said. I'm going
to New York to shop for school

Senator and Mrs. Smathers of
Florida tried transplanting their
