Dulles Recalls
His Prediction
BY the Associated Press

Secretary of State Dulles said
today the Soviet government
shakeup confirms his predic-
ton that Communist type des-
potisms are not as unchange-
able as they sometimes appear"
Mr.. Dulles commented on the
Russian developments as he re-
turned to Washington from a
six-day vacation at his Duck
Island retreat in Lake Ontario.
In response to questions, he
said he first heard about the
custer of six top Soviet leaders
last Saturday, three days after
Radio Moscow broadcast the
news to the world.
He said mo clear picture
yet energies" from the sudden
Communist move.
whether the issues are spol-
icy issues or whether merely
a struggle between personali-
ties is not yet clear" he added.
Tanned and smiling, Dulles
returned by plane from the
vacation which began July 8,
The prediction he referred
to was made in a foreign policy
speech at San Francisco 10
days ago. In denouncing the
Chinese Communist regime, he
said it eventually would be re-
placed by one more responsive
to the will of the people. He
said this also applied to the
Soviet government.
Mr.. Dulles said that while
flying to Washington aboard
a twin engine Air Force trans
port he read cables from the
American embassy in Moscow
and reports from other foreign
capitals. These cables had
been flown to WATERFOWL, NY.
where Mr.. Dulles boarded the
plane for his return to Wash
ington.

Modest Beginning
Urged for Asion
NucIeur Center
BY the Associated Press

Foreign Aid Chief John B
HOLSTER today opened a 16-
nation conference by urging
that its initial efforts to set UP
an Asian nuclear center be
modest and orderly"
Mr.. HOLSTER told represen-
tatives fro mis- Colombo plan
nations and the United States
lit would seem logical to con-
centrate initially on the train
ing of personnel rather
than request each individual
country to invest large
amounts of cash on advanced
scientific equipment and facili-
ties" i.
The United States offered
last December to contribute
approximately $40 million to
the establishment of the re-
gional nuclear center at a site
near Manila in the Philippines
The contributions of other
countries have not yet been de-
termined.
"The pooling Of energies
talents and resources Of the
countries Of Asia could accel-
crate greatly progress in the
field of nuclear energy fol
peaceful uses" Mr.. Hollistel
said.
He said the primary objec-
tive for the center is to develop
for Asia nuclear energy in the
fields Of agriculture, medicine

nett and Cox arrested Julian
w. Cooper, ST., and his wife in
their $40, 900 Country Club Hills
home. About a week later, the
two officers followed UP with
arrests of Mrs. Helen E. Grimes.
Of Fairfax County. and Mr.. and
Mrs. Henley o. Drummond, of
Alexandria.
Probe Began Here
Question as to whether Ar
lington ofilcials have furnished
District police with information
on obortions, Capt. Richard j.
Felber Of the Districts Homi-
eide Squad said the entire in
vestigation leading to the ring
started in the District.
He said the investigation got
under way when his detectives
questioned a girl in critical con-
dition at a Washington hospital
after an abortion.
Detectives, he said. learned
her boy friends name and. in
questioning him, discovered
that he had followed the car
taking his girl friend and sew
eral other women to Virginia
for the abortion. Capt. Felber
explained that the girls them
selves are blindfolded or forced
to wear smoked glasses so they
cannot reveal where they were
taken.
The boy friend, he said, sup
piled the tag numbers of the
car in which the girl was riding
and an address in Virginia.
Police, he explained, brought in
Cooper after they found he had
been alerted by the demands
OF the boy friend to get back
the money paid for the near
fatal abortion.
Cooper. he said, was released
after the girl identified him in
a lineup and Virginia authori-
ties were notified and advised
to start making observations in
orde rto get all members of the
suspected ring. Capt. Felber
said he learned later that
something went wrong which
