US. Disarmament Plan Would Open
100000 Square Miles in Russia
And America to Inspection Teams
Friday. March %. 1856

LONDON, R-Seeking to re-
place years of talk about diSarma-
ment with concrete action, the
United States wants 10000 to co.
600 square miles of Russian and
American territory opened to in
ternational arms inspection teams.
The us. proposal for a prelim-
mary test of disarmament controls
was made Wednesday night at a
meeting of the five-power U.N.
subcommittee on disarmament,
which resumed sessions here this
week.
The plan is in line with US. eff
forts to build mutual confidence
in disarmament between the two
top military powers. 1t is aimed
at paving the way to a compre-
hensive program of controlled
arms reduction. France and Brit
ain earlier this week submitted an
arms control plan linked to a gen.
eral disarmament pact.
Subcommittee delegates referred
the American plan to their gov
ernments. 1t may not be taken up
again here for a week.
The US. proposal came "a few
hours before officials here and in
Washington disclosed that the So
Wet Union has launched a new
series of nuclear tests. There were
no details as to what type tests

Soviet Warplane TU-1O4,
Four Jet Airliner,
Flew SerOv to London

LONDON, R-The plane in
which Ivan A. Serov, Soviet police
chief, flew here today was a Soviet
jet airliner whose details have not
been disclosed to the West.
1t is a cleaning silver-white
civilian version of Russia's top
secret, four-jet warplane, the TU-
104.
Little is known of the planes
performance in the West. The cur
rent edition of James All the
Worlds Aircraft" says it is capa-
BILE of carrying an atom bomb
from Moscow to London at speeds
in excess of 500 miles an hour.
The sleek airplane, with dis
tinctive sweptback wings, flew
slowly over London Airport be-
fore turning to land, taking less
than 100 yards to pull UP.
AS Serov clambered down from
the plane, he turned and pointed
proudly to the red hammer and
sickle painted on the fuselage.
Officials said the plane flew
from Moscow to London in about
four hours, including a stop in
Berlin.

own works. plus extensively
bound first editions of others;
his correspondence with the
worlds great; his collection Of
Lincolniana; his hundreds OF

times as much. But Mr.. Sand
burg decided to sell to the uni
lversity, a spokesman said. be-
cause he wanted the collection
to remain together.
