Government a special group to
study how to counter this propa-
ganda appeal.
What the Soviet is doing, Mr.,
Dulles said, is not calculated
appreciahly to reduce its mill
tary power. He said military
manpower is the most Elusive
factor to try to control. He
pointed out that men released
from the army and sent to fac
tories can be recalled to military
duty quickly.
The thing to control, MIR
Dulles reasoned, was weapons
This was the trend Of modern
thinking, he said.
Details of Views
This theme was detailed in the
closing paragraphs of Mr.. Dulles
prepared statement:
A real disarmament program
should include a system for
guarding against great surprise
attack. 1t should provide reduc-
tons in weapons, which can be
more effectively controlled than
manpower, as trained men can
be rapidly shifted back to arms,
If arms exist.
1T should also include an eff
fective system for verifying these
reductions. We continue to be-
lieVe that it should comprehend
effective measures to halt the
nuclear ornaments race. as pro-
posed by, President Eisenhower
on March ! to Premier Bulganin.
THE United States is always
ready to join with the Soviet
Union and other nations in a
program which allows the world
to reduce further the burden of
ornaments in safety and secu-
rity, bring under control the
nuclear threat, minimize the
danger of surprise attack by the
Presidents open sky plan, as
well as by other checks, and re-
lease more economic resources
for peaceful purposes"
Ironic Shift in Policies
The American emphasis on re-
duction Of ornaments dramatizes
an ironic shift in Soviet and
American policies since the early
days of the cold war. When the
Soviet-American rivalry was Just
beginning to dominate world
affairs. the Soviet greatly out
classed the West in military
manpover and conventional
weapons. The West depended
heavily on its exclusive possess
sion OF atomic weapons.
In these early cold-war days
the Soviet was demanding elm
nation of atomic weapons, while
the West was demanding reduc-
lions in conventional weapons
and manpower.
Now. however. the Soviet has
A-weapons of its own, is selling
surplus conventional weapons
beyond its borders and feels it
can wisely reduce the number of
men in its armed forces. This
manpower cut. which at one
time was sought so earnestly by
the United States, now comes at
q time when the United States
does not even welcome it.
Quizzed on Stand

ton succinctly today when he
was asked. near the conclusion
OF his news conference. wheth-
err he really would prefer to have
