success or failure. After agree

S. He still anticipates con-
siderable difficulty in working
aerial and ground inspection
zones. He conceded that West
German Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer had given qualified
approval to inclusion of Ger
many in a European inspection
zone. But the qualification is
that the inspection would not
solidify the present position of
Germany. Until the details of
the inspection system are
worked out, no such assurance
can be given to DR.. Adenauer,
in Mr.. Dulles opinion.

the problem of who operates
the system, the relationship Of
ground and air inspection and
the complex of communica-

not know whether q European

sion of Germany.
May Become Academic
The whole plan tor providing
NATO with a stockpile of nu-
clear weapons may become
academic. Secretary Dulles
noted, If the Soviet Union per-

agree on a cutoff in nuclear
weapons production as a part
of any first-step disarmament
agreement.
The Kremlin has accepted
neither the concept Of nuclear
weapons production cutoff nor
a date on which it would be-
come effective. Mr.. Dulles
commented that the cutoff
would have to be accompanied
by large inspection installa-
tons, which the Soviet Union
so far has not accepted.
Mr.. Dulles explained the slow
progress in presenting the allied

he had previously. by calling

Caribbean Base
Closing Asked

LONDON. July is (R.-Lead-
ers of Britain's emerging Carib-
bean Federation today asked
the United States to close down
its Trinidad Naval Base but
offered facilities for a new one
elsewhere in the area.
The Trinidad base guards the
Atlantic approaches to the Pan
anna Canal.
The Request and offer were
made at a conference among
representatives of the Carib-
bean Federation and American
and British governments, Brit
ish informants said.
Details Not Disclosed
Details of this offer and of
the American reaction were not
disclosed.
The issue has arisen because
leaders of Is British island
colonies in the Caribbean have
decided to band together into a
single nation. The new fedora
ton hopes to become a fully
independent state within the
British Commonwealth in the
next few years.
Its leaders have chosen site

near Port of Spain in Trinidad.
for the Federal Capital. It is
on land leased to the United
States by Britain-along with
the base itself-until the year
204O.
The arrangement was part
of the l94l "lend-lease" agree
ment under which the British
granted the United States base
facilities in various parts of
the Caribbean in exchange for
so average destroyers.
At the time the British did
not consult it's Caribbean COL
onies about the agreement.
Local leaders have never
wholly approved of the ar
rangements.
Bases Built Up
Britain now takes the view
that the 194l agreement pro-
vided for revisions that could
be amended in friendly nego-
tiations. The United States,

The witness denied under
cross examination by Prosecu-
tor Edward p. Troxell, that any
proposition had been made to
Mr.. Cheasty to get a job with
the committee and feed data
from its files to Fischbach or
Hoffa.
"All he (Fischbach) told me
was that Cheasty was retained
to assist him in preparing
cases before the committee as a
lawyer and an investigator. "
Mr.. Lurie testified.
At other times, the witness
stated fatty that Mr.. Cheasty
was not hired to get a job with
the committee.

Dubois Denied
Passport To Ghana

New York Especially The
one man believed by many
Negro Americans who should
have been in Accra for the
inauguration of the indepen-
dent state of Ghana CORNER
ly the Gold COAST was not
there. He is DR.. w. E. B.
Dubois, father of the Pan
African movement, organizer
of five sessions of the Pan
African Congress between
1919 and 1915, the first loud
and clear voice for a free AT
RIGA, was denied a passport
by the United States govern
ment-despite the personal
intervention of Ghana's Prime
Minister Kwame Nkrumah.
Months before the March
6 Independence Day, Nkru-
NAH had written DR.. Dubois
telling him that he very much
wanted DR.. Dubois and his
wife, author Shirley Graham,
to be present at the historic
occasion. When an official in
vitation arrived, DR.. Dubois
applied for a passport which
he had been denied since
1852. He had held a passport
for IS years and had made
13 trips abroad in that time.
Since 1852 he has refused as
a matter of principle, to state
in the application whether he
is a member of the Commu-
mist Party, although it is pub
lie knowledge that he is not.
In a letter DR.. Dubois sent
Secretary Of State Dulles on
February %, he wrote that
he and Mrs. Dubois had made
new applications and had
made travel reservations to
leave for Ghana 81. In the

the first day of May. DR.. Du-
Bots stated "TheSe are the
people whom America once
enSlaved and still treats as
second class citizens. They,
on their own soil, have achiev-
ed independence and they ask
from us not simply the cour-
tesy of representation, but of
the representation of that ele-
ment among us which called
for and fought for equality
of black men since the first
World War. The honor is
proffered not to me as a per-
son but to me as representing
the Pan-AflicGn Congress, of
which | am President.
Silence followed. The letter
was sent registered mail and
a copy, with a covering let
ter, was sent registered to
Vice President Nixon, who
was preparing to leave for
Ghana as head of the u. S.
delegation to the ceremonies.
There was no reply from
either official. Nixon went to
Africa.
In AcCra, it was learned
that a cable had been sent
to Washington from Accra in
the last week of February
by government officials en-
phasizing that it was the new
