the current trend by the transfer
of nuclear materials from mill
tary uses to peaceful uses"
This proposal has been brought
up in the past few days as some
thing new. 1t was proposed
January IA. The key provision
of course, is that any halt ir
nuclear production for weapons
must be accompanied by "effec.
tive international inspection anc
supervision" which the KYemlir

A ban on nuclear test explosions
under present limited methods
of detecting such explosions
offers no safe assurance that
testing would not be carried out
secretly to circumvent detection
Pending the establishment of a
foolproof system to detect test
explosions, the United States is
willing to worn out a method
for advance notice and registra-
ton of tests under limited inter-
national observation"
On this subject. there has
been premature optimism about
official American willingness to
stop tests. The important pre-
requisite is that nuclear weapons
production must be operating to
verify that none goes into max
ing weapons before the United
States would agree to stop test
ing. The sticking point on both
these proposals, therefore. is the
Soviet reluctance to agree to fool
proof inspection.

There is talk of suspending
nuclear tests and banning all

All Part of Picture
All these ideas have some place
in world disarmament. But how
do they fit? And will the Soviet
Union really reciprocate?
Must we come to agreement
with the Kremlin on all these
subjects in a package before we
can take a small, first step?'
Would we settle for some pro-
gress toward one of these attrac-
tive detectives alone? What is
safe?
The United States does have
an overall plan.
President sEisenhower's special
disarmament adviser. Harold E
Stassen, has stated three first
step American detectives. They
are:
/. To reduce the nuclear
threat.
2. To lower conventional
ornaments.
8. To guard against surprise
attack.
These are the three pillars
upon which American hopes for
a flrst-stage disarmament agree
ment rest The administration
would like to move forward in
all three areas. But we will settle
for progress in any one or any
combination of them.
Henry Cabot Lodge. jr., the
United States Ambassador to
the United Nations. long ago
spelled out five general proposals
stemming from these three first
stage detectives. He told the
whole world about them last
January IA. Mr. Stassen offered
them before the U. N. Disarma-

Balancing the huge advantage

reality of his own precarious eco

severely shaken. Naturalization of
foreign-owned banks and industries
has accentuated the difficulty, de-
privlng Egypt Of her best mana

chief source of income for Egypt
her production of long staple cotton
has been mortgaged to the Com
munistS in return for arms de-
liveries and technical military aid.
But the probable economic
stresses facing Egypt at the moment
are not comforting to the West.
Rather than forcing compliance
with Western needs and desires.
they may well become new gateways
for Soviet penetration. Already, in
the view Of many informed Western
diplomats, Col. Nasser is so far COM
mitted to Soviet patronage that he
cannot reverse himself.
This week may we'll reveal the
true outlines of Soviet influence in
the Middle East. Whether Egypt
will seek to re-establish friendly re-
lationS with the West. or will defy
the U. N. on the strength of Soviet

tary support, remains to be demon

Assurance From Dulles

Fully anticipating the reaction Of
the Arabs. Mr.. Dulles told the Off
cial representatives of nine Arab
nations Friday that the United
States had made mo promises or
concessions whatever" to Israel.
But the Arabs remained I'M
happy. and they were in a position
to do great deal abe ut it. Since
Egypt has already made it a matter
of record. with U. N. agreement and
United States acceptance, that the
UNEF units are in Egypt only with
Egyptian consent, Cairo is in an
excellent position to refuse U. N.
entry into GAIA or to the shores
Of the Gulf.
Such an Egyptian move. sup
ported by the Asian African ma
tons in the General Assembly and
whipped along by the Communist
bloc. could conceivably wreck the
delicate U. N. maneuver in the Mid
die East. Whether such an out
come would be risked by any of
the nations or blocs concerned,
however, was still matter of con-
lecture yesterday. Mr.. Dulles and
President Eisenhower appeared
confident that they would not. AL
though some U. N. delegates
agreed that the Secretary might
be correct, most felt that the
whole development was a serious
gamble.
Possibly the most dangerous ee-
ment was the possibility that rela-
tions between the United States
and the Arab world would be per-
manently damaged. The State
Department has tried diligently to
strengthen Arab limited States re-
lations. These efforts eliminated

visit of King Saud of Saudi Arabia.

and by substantial agreement be-
tween the King and American pol-
icymakerS.

way for Arab acceptance of the
Israeli withdrawal plan being
worked out in Washington. But re-
ports from Cairo we're that he had
been unable TO sell Col. NaSser on
the virtues of the American posi-
ton. Specifically, it was said that
Col. Nasser had told the Saudi
ruler that he felt no longer bound
by the six general principles" Sug-
gested last autumn by Mr.. Ham
marSkjold. BY which Egypt agreed
to recognize full freedom Of transit
of the Suez Canal.
Col. Nasser. before the invasion
of Egypt by forces of Israel. Britain.
and France. had accepted Mr.. Ham
marSkjold's proposal that the canal
be open to all nations on a basis
insulated from the domestic poll
tics of any one nation" But Col.
Nasser now holds. if the reports
are correct, that Egypt has been
the victim of overt aggression. and
therefore, is no longer bound by
that agreement.

AnApnointment
And a Juror"

For the past several decades. it
has been a common practice for
Presidents to appoint members of
the opposition party to high posi-
tons.

and Harry S. Truman availed

Republicans as Frank Knox. Henry

Mr. Eisenhower also has crossed
the party line. In the past year
top appointments have gone to
former Senator Walter George. for
