: - The United States should
give serious attention to Pre-
mier Khrushchev's disarma-
ment proposal because the
SovietS are arguing from a
position of military strength
and power, Mr.. Max Freed
man said yesterday.
The Washington cores
pondent for the Manchester
Guardian was luncheon
speaker at a meeting of the
Woman,s National Democrat
&c Club.
The West, he said, was
Justified in not placing as
much faith in the Soviet's
plea for disarmament in the
1S5OS because the Russians
were extremely weak at that
time. '
But now, and probably
until 1858 at least" he con-
tinued, "the Russians have
an unprecedented superiority
in arms.
Mr.. Freedman said he
believes that Chairman Khru-
shchev does not expect
universal disarmament to
come in our time or in our
children's time.

were scattered in four sep
arate buildings.
HE INTRODUCED THE
ARCHITECT, William Les
Gaze, a SwiSs-born New
Yorker who also designed the
Longfellow Building here.
Washington residents in the
audience were pleased to hear
him say that they had tried to
create a building as little like
an Office building as possible
to preserve the residential
character of the neighbor-
hood. The erection of diplo-
matte Offices in residential
areas (by virtue of immunity
from the law where no Amer
leans can put up an Office
building, is a continuous and
hotly contested point in
Washington.
District Commissioner Rob-
ert Mclaughlin noted, in his
remarks, that embassies in
Washington are extremely
important to us" because
government is "the raison
d'etre" of Washington. I'VE
are proud" he said, ito have
these gems of architecture in
our city"
After that, everyone toured
the shiny two story structure
with its abstract bronze
sculpture by Swiss Artist
Andre Ramseyer out front,
its two AFRAID shelters in the
basement, its blue vinyl walls
and its deep bronze-edged
windows. Then they returned
to the big, glass-walled con-
ference room for a libation of
champagne.
Nobody had any trouble
Spotting the Ambassadors
office. The big difference al
ways between the boss room
and those of his subordinates
is the walls. No matter what
building you're in. if the
room has paneled walls, it
belongs to the top kick. M. de
Torrente's Office has beauti-
full rosewood paneling.
In addition to the British
and Iranian Embassies which
are now in the process of
building chanceries, I under
stand Office construction is
being contemplated by the
Italians, the Greeks and the
Portuguese.

- All ambassadors at one
time or another have de-
voted the major part of their
energies trying to get their

stand the need for a new
residence or new chancery or
new furniture. But govern

cent in such matters, and
Switzerland is as financially
conservative a country as you
will find. That, no doubt, is
the reason they have SO much
money up in those Alps.
