New Red Invitations Seen
After Twining Accepts

proving relationships with the
Soviet Union.
Await Broader Bid
The Joint chiefs of staff are
reported to have recommended
to Mr.. Eisenhower that the
United States ask Russia either
directly or indirectly to broaden
the invitation to Gen. Twining
He apparently decided against
this in the hope that acceptance
of this particular invitation
would lead later on to the kind
OF broader bid which would more
directly serve American interests.
Mr.. Eisenhower himself is de-
Scrlbed as convinced that more
and closer American-Russian
contracts are in themselves de-
sirable. He is said to feel such
contacts may well work in the
interest of peace to the extent
that they open up Russia to more
Westerners.
Ever since the summit con-
ference at Geneva last July the
administration has been press
ing Russia to take measures
which would open up the Soviet
Union to foreign inspection.
Although the Khrushchey-
Bulganin regime has relaxed
some controls on foreign travel
inside Russia and has promoted
of delegations. the
strength and disposition of So
Wet forces still remains largely
a mystery to the West.
BY contrast, as Mr.. Eisenhow-
er told Premier Bulganin at
Geneva, the strength of Western
forces and their DISPOSE
ton is pretty much an open book
to the Russians. Thus a major
objective of United States policy
continues to be to get the So
VETS to lift the secrecy which
now surrounds their military
power and deal openly on ques-
tlons concerned with military

Public Worker
Unions toMerqe

Former AFL and CLIO unions
representing 145, 900 State, county
and municipal workers have
agreed on a merger. it was dis
closed today.
The unions are the 10000
member American Federation of
State, County and Municipal
Employees. formerly AFL, and the
Government Civic Employees
Organizing Committee, formerly
CLIO. which has 10000 members.
Milton Murray, now secretary
treasurer of the former CLIO
group, and who is expected to
become administrative vice pres
ident of the Federation which
will absorb the smaller unions,
said details were worked out last
week.
The former CLIO group will
have to ratify the merger at a
special convention this summer
but Mr.. Murray said no trouble
lis anticipated on this score. The
Federation, headed by Arnold S.
Zander. has already approved
the merger.
Mr.. Murray'S group has about
5000 Federal employee members.
The Federation has none.
Mr.. Murray said he expects
that after the merger, jurisdic-
ton over the 5000 Federal en-
ploye members will be relin-
pushed and that they will be
eligible to join the various Fed
eral and postal worker unions in
the AFL-CIO.
Headquarters of the new or
ganization is expected to be in
Washington eventually. al
though the Federation now has
its Offices in Madison, Wis. The
former CLIO group had its Of
fees here and a unit of the
combined organization will con-
tinue here. The Federation for
several years has considered
moving its Offices here. An
nouncement OF such a move is
expected shortly.
The merger will make the
Federation with it's 5000 mem
bers the largest single group of
public employees in the country.
The largest Federal employee
group-the National Federation
of Post Office Clerks-haS about
10000 members.

Gen. Nathan F. Twining with
invitations to other American
military leaders to visit Russia
Members of the Soviet high
command may be asked to come
to the United States in return
Air Force Secretary QuarleS
announced yesterday that with
the authorization of the Presi-
dent Gen Twining had accepted
an invitation to a Soviet avia-
ton day celebration June "a.
Gen Twining, Air Force chief of
staff, will be accompanied by
several subordinate officers.
Mr.. QuarleS said the decision
to accept had been approved
also by Secretary of Defense
Wilson and Secretary of State
Dulles. The Russian embassy
was advised of the decision.
President Eisenhower's taking
personal responsibility for the
decision indicated the serious
ness he and his chief advisers
attached to it.
The decision for Gen. Twining
to accept was speeded by a
weekend report from Ambassa-
dor Charles E. Bohlen in Mos
COW.
1t made clear that the bid
to Gen. TWining was firm. This
that the Soviet gov
was not interested for
the moment in inviting other
of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff for tour of Russian mill
tary establishments.
Prior to receipt of Mr.. Boh-
lens dispatch, many officials had
been inclined to regard as ten
tative the original informal APP
proach by the Russian Embassy.
Comments from the White
House and Defense Department
showed they would welcome a
broadened invitation. but when
it became evident that this would
not be forthcoming soon, the
decision was made for Gen.
Twining to accept.
AS a matter of policy, it ap-
pears that Soviet moves for in
creasing military contacts with
the United States have confront
ed Mr., Eisenhower and his chief
advisers with a choice of diff
cult and risky alternatives.

will be host to the Atlantic Coast

ment made this week by Commo-
dore Robert M. Tunnel of George

members of the International Pen
guin Glass Dinghy Associations in
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia,
New York, New Jersey, District
of Columbia, Connecticut, Massa-

anticipates between so and 20 en-
tries for the two-day meet. Two
races are scheduled for Saturday,
Sept. s, beginning at IL am, and
three will be run Sunday, starting
at 10 am. Following the last race
on Sunday trophies are expected
to be awarded by Delaware's Gov
ernor j. Caleb Boggs. The wide
expanse of Indian River, which
flows on to Indian River Inlet and
the Atlantic Ocean is said to be
one of the calmest spots on the
East Coast for yacht racing.
While good breezes whip up, max
ing for interesting sailing, the
water itself does not become agi-

great trouble. The Oak Orchard
