These explorations include the
constant examination and eval-
uation Of nuclear tests. To be
effective, and not simply a mir
age, all these plans require sys-
TENS of inspection and control,
both of which your government
has steadfastly refused to ac-
cept. Even my "Open Skies
proposal of mutual aerial in
spection, suggested as a first
step, you rejected.
However, though disappointed,
we are not discouraged. We will
continue unrelenting in our eff
forts to attain these goals. We
will close no doors which might
open a secure way to serve hui
manity.
We shall entertain and seri-
ously evaluate all proposals from
any source which seem to have
merit, and we shall constantly
seek for ourselves foundations
which might dependably re-
move the atomic menace.

Horrors of A-Wur
BY the Associated Press

Philippine Ambassador Carlos
P. Romulo says that ignorance
Of people behind the Iron Cur
tain about the certainty of death
in an atomic war contributes
to the present deadlock" in
East-West disarmament talks.
Gen. Romulo yesterday called
for a crusade of enlightment"
to destroy the curtain of CEN
sorship that keeps 80 many
millions ignorant or misin-
formed" about the fact that "they
cannot possibly escape death in
a nuclear war"
There will be no end to the
present deadlock in the disarm-
ament talks" he said, 80 long
as so many millions behind the
Iron Curtain are not thinking
as they should, thanks to their
rulers who want to perpetuate
themselves in power"
Gen. Romulo spoke in one of
q series of weekly overseas
broadcasts by the Voice Of Amer
lea.

quences Of the present race In
atomic ornaments.
I can only express regret at
the fact that the United States
Government still does not con-
slider it possible to cooperate in
the efforts of many other ma
tions, efforts which are directed
toward the prohibition of atomic
weapons and toward the conclu-
sion OF a pertinent international
agreement to this end. But let
JUS assume that for a certain Pc
Rod Of time no agreement. on
the prohibition of atomic weap-
ons will be achieved. Does this
mean that no effort should be
undertaken to find various par
tial solutions for this question,
solutions which would facilitate
future agreement on total exclu-
sion of atomic weapons from the
national armament, with the
provision that atomic energy
should be used only for peaceful
purposes. I think that such eff
forts should be continued, and
their results depend to a great
extent on the position of the
United States and the USSR.
Until the necessary agreement
on the prohibition of atomic
weapons is attained, it would,
in our opinion, be desirable to
reach agreement at this time on
at least the first step toward the
solution of the problem of atomic
pons-t the prohibition OF
testing atomic and hydrogen
weapons, as proposed in my mes
sage to you of September IL,
1856.
I think you will also agree
that, in the event that an agree
ment is reached on this question,
no serious problem will arise in
connection with the supervision
of the implementation of such
an agreement, since any explo-
sion of an atomic or hydrogen
bomb cannot, in the present
state of scientific knowledge, be
produced without being recorded
in other countries. Would not
the best guarantee against the
violation of such an agreement
be the mere fact that secret test
ing of nuclear weapons is i'm
possible and that consequently
. government undertaking the
solemn obligation to stop max
ing tests could not violate it
without exposing itself to the en-
tire world as the violator of an
international agreement.
We fully share the opinion
recently expressed by certain
prominent public figures in the
United States concerning the
necessity and the possibility of
concluding an agreement on the
matter of prohibiting atomic
weapon tests and concerning the
positive influence which this
would have on the entire inter-
national situation.
cannot conceal a certain de-
gree of surprise on my part, Mr..
President. concerning the doubts
expressed by you as to whether
the Soviet Union is really willing
to discontinue testing it's atomic
and hydrogen weapons. There is
decidedly no basis for such
doubts. I must say the same
thing regarding your statement
that discontinuance of testing
the atomic weapon by the United
States would be "a unilateral
American act" Such a step on
the part of the United States
cannot in any way be unilateral.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-10-22

since the Soviet Union itself pro-
poses that co-ordinated action bel
undertaken by the nations, with
Soviet participation.
We have also noted your
statement to the effect that the
question Of prohibiting the test
ing Of atomic weapons can bel
decided only by concluding an
agreement on the program of
disarmament as a whole. tt
would, of course, be well if such
an agreement on disarmament
could be reached in the very
near future. But it is a we'll
known fact that such an agree
ment is not within sight at pres
ent. This is attested by the fact
that the United States. as well
as certain other participants in
on disarmament, re-
nounce its own proposals as soon
as the Soviet Union accepts these
proposals. This was the very
thing that happened, for ex-
ample, with the proposals con-
corning the question of estab-.
fishing limit on the size Of the
armed forces Of the five great
powers.
Since this is the situation, it
is our deep conviction that the
solution of the problem of test
ing atomic weapons should not
be made contingent on an agree
ment concerning the problem
of disarmament as a whole.
AS far as the Soviet govern
ment is concerned, 1t is pre-
pared to conclude an agreement
with the United States of Ameri-
Ca Immediately for disseminating
atomic weapon tests. We pro-
coed, Of course, on the basis
of the assumption that other
states having the atomic weapon
at their disposal will likewise
adhere to such an agreement.
1t goes without saying that
the Soviet government will, as
always, continue to contribute
toward the achievement of an
agreement on other problems of
disarmament, not to mention the
fact that it has, as you know,
recently undertaken a unilateral
reduction of its armed forces
by 1.840.000 men without watt
ing for such an agreement.
I shall be grateful, Mr.. Presi-
dent, for whatever considerations
you may consider it possible toI
express in connection with thel
foregoing.
With sincere respect,
N. Bulganin

October II. 1856.

October II, 1856.
Dear Mr.. President:
In this letter I should like to
breach a subject to which-for
readily understandable reasons
a great deal Of attention is being
paid. especially recently. in the
United States Of America and
elsewhere. I have in mind the
question Of atomic weapons, and
in particular the testing Of this
weapon.
We have more than once had
the opportunity to exchange
views on this subject, both dur
ing my personal meeting with
you in Geneva last year as well
as in the subsequent corre-
spondence. However, since it
has not as yet been possible to
reach agreement on the question
of atomic weapons, it would be
desirable to try again to evaluate
the existing possibilities for pro-
gress toward reaching agreement
on the prohibition Of atomic
weapons.
1t is precisely for this reason
that I am addressing this letter
to you.
We realize, of course, that an
election campaign is being con-
Quoted in the United States in
the course of which the discus
sion of various questions Of in
ternational significance, among
them the question of disarma-
ment, acquires the form of q
polemic. However. we cannot
fail to note the fact that in a
number of cases, in speeches by
persons in an official capacity.

October 81, 1856,
Dear Mr. Chairman:
I have the letter which your
Embassy handed me through
Secretary Dulles on October 10.
l regret to find that this letter
departs from accepte d in
ternational practice in a number
Of respects.
First, the sending of your note
in the midst of a national cleo
ton campaign of which you take
cognizance, expressing your sup
port of the opinions of certain
prominent public figures in the
United States" constitutes an in
reference by a foreign nation
in our internal affairs of kind
which. if INDUCED in by an am
bassador. would lead to his being
declared persona non grata in
accordance with long established
custom.
Second, having delivered a
lengthy communication in the
Russian language, you have pub
lished it before it could be care.
fully translated and delivered to
me. Because of this, and of the
necessity of placing the facts &C
curately before the public, am
compelled to release this reply
Immediately.
Third, your statement with re-
spect to the Secretary of State
Is not only unwarranted, but is
personally offensive to me.
Fourth, you seem to impugn
my own sincerity.
However, am not instructing
the Department of State to re-
turn you letter to your Embassy
That is not because ! am toler-
ant of these departures from ac-
copied international practice
but because I still entertain the
hope that direct communities
lions between us may serve the
cause Of peace.
You and I have exchanged q
number of letters since ouI
meeting in Geneva on the re-
duction of ornaments and re-
lated matters in our effort to
make progress toward the goal
of peace. I hope that that
practice may be resumed in &C.
cordance with accepted stand
ards.

there has been obvious distortion
Of the policy Of the Soviet Union
concerning the aforementioned
questions. Unfortunately, this
applies particularly to the state
ments by Mr.. Dulles, who does
not hesitate to make direct at
tacks against the Soviet Union
and its peace-loving foreign
policy.
I have already had the OPP
portunity to call your attention
to the Importance which is at
tached by the Soviet government
to the problem of disarmament
and to the search for ways of
achieving agreement on this
problem. Therefore you will
understand our desire to have
complete clarity, in considering
the problem of disarmament, as
to the positions taken by our
governments concerning the
problem Of disarmament, and in
particular the atomic question.
think, Mr.. President, that you
will agree that the problem of
atomic weapons remains one of
the most urgent international
problems.
need not speak at length Of
the fact that the Soviet govern
ment has been and is in favor
OF an unconditional prohibition
of atomic weapons, inasmuch as
the present situation, with its
Iever-increasing race in the pro-
Iduction of these weapons, is in
consistent with the aim of fur
ther easing international tension
and freeing nations from the fear
of atomic war. 1t is well known
that. even in the United States

gen. S.V.D., has brought to light
for the first time 400 years of
buried history. The book is pub

The work traces the history of
Catholicism from its very begin
nings when a wooden cross was
planted at Shama in January,
1471, the day the Gold Coast was
discovered by the Portuguese, TO
the year 1880 when the modern
mission period began with the
arrival of the Society of African
Missions.
Father Wiltgen recalls that
Pope Plus ii in 1862. Paul III in
1887 and Urban VIII in 1889 con.
demned the slave traders under
penalty of accommodation, and
that the Sacred Congregation oi
the Holy Office in Rome, drew
up a Bill of Rights in 1886 for
protection of natives against the
slave traders.

between man and his religion, be-

scale it without transgresSing the
