LONDON, Sept. 10 AP).-
Nikita Khrushchev's proposal
to strip the world Of its wea-
pons in four years was greeted
with chilly skepticism today
in world capitals friendly to
the West. And If the Russians
hoped neutraliSt nations would
rush to indorse the Soviet
Premier's disarmament plan,
they were disappointed.
Mr.. Khrushchev's speech to
the United Nations won smash
play in New Delhi and Cairo,
Just as have other events of
his trip to the United States.
But Indian newspapers held
on on editorial comment de-
spite the Indian view that the
cold war can be settled by
East.WeSt talks.
TasS noted, with obvious
pleasure, that Cairo newspa-
pers featured the speech under
bold headlines. But there
was no editorial comment.
Reaching for Moon
In Western Europe, some
newspapers thought the Soviet
Premier was reaching for the
moon. Said Paris influential
lie Monde:
IF Mr.. Khrushchev arrived
in the United States with a dip
lomatic bomb in his baggage
or a psychological bomb, which
is the same thing-it still has
not exploded"
lie Monde warned, however
against the Vests giving a fiat
no to "an idea with which one
is in basic agreement. It would
be better :. to ask Mr. .Khrush-
chew how he hopes to accom-
plish the trick"
Ofticial reaction for the most
part was cautious or lacking.
But many West European news
papers eyed the plan as unreal
istic, or propaganda or both.
The main sticking point was the
problem Of how general disarm-
ament could be controlled.
On the other side Of the Iron
Curtain, the Communist press
and radio went all out to plug
the Khrushchev proposal, as ex-
pected.
Control Important
Britain's Foreign Secretary
Selwyn Lloyd said his own dis
armament proposal and Mr..
Khrushchev's contained SINH
lar elements.
But, 'in our view, control is
the essence of the matter"
I'VE need to work on both
plans and see whether anything
can be made Of them" Mr..
Lloyd said on his return to
London to report to Prime Min
lister Macmillan after hearing
Mr.. Khrushchev announce his
plan to the United Nations
yesterday.
London'S conservative Daily
Mail called Mr.. Khrushchev's
plan a breath-taking concept
but added that like so many
Russian proposals. the concept
Is not matched by its practi-
cality."
To achieve it. the Mail said,
will take time and the estab-
lishment Of trust and I'VE can
not reach Utopia in one bound"
The mass-circulation Daily
Mirror said the Khrushchev
proposal calls for much great
er trust and confidence than
has ever been demanded in any
disarmament plan before"
In Paris, government spokes-
men declined specific comment,

Paris headquarters of the

zation. NATO's military plan
ners oppose unqualified allied
withdrawal from European
bases without compromising
steps to insure Europe's secur-
ity In some other way.
In the West German CAPT.
tai Of Bonn, government and
political leaders withheld COM
ment, awaiting more detailed
reports. They insisted West
Germany Is ready to join in
any effective disarmament
agreement.

Faint Praise Offered

Premier Khrushchev had odd
words of praise for the United
Nations, despite his well-known
contempt for its processes.
History knows Of no otner
international organization on
which the peoples have pinned
such hope as the United Ma
tions," he declared. And later:
IF two or more states are
unable to reach an UNDER
standing with each other, then
the United Nations must rem
der its assistance to these
states"
The troubles in Laos seem
to fit this prescription, but the
Soviet Union attempted to veto
the resolution to send a fact
finding mission there.
Near the end of his speech,
he prescribed a voting for
mula that would virtually
paralyze the United Nations

taken in the United Nations, +"
he said. which everyone would
vote for, seeing in them the

essary prerequisites for estab-
fishing comprehensive control"
A later paragraph says
bluntly the Soviet Union can
not accept control before dis
armament: g. To put for
ward deliberately inflated de-
mands as regards control and
especially to place the estab-
lishment Of control before dis
armament as a prerequisite for
any measures in the field Of
diarmament. is tantamount to
blocking all approaches to the
solution Of this problem"
Other Remarks Studied
Administration officials are
toying with a few other curious
remarks by Premier Khrush-
chew, wondering If they have
more significance than meets
the eye or can be used in the
waxing propaganda contest.
Early in his remarks he al
luded to a possible effort to
strengthen peace by "heads Of
government of all States" rails
ing the picture of an 82-nation
special General Assembly Of
heads Of government.
At another point he advocated
reimbursement by colonial
powers of the new nations they
formerly exploited" This
could be turned against him
some day by the powers Of
Eastern Europe.
He also frankly admitted his
country needs a long period
of peace to develop its econ
omy. You will all agree" he
declared, that to accomplish
the grandiose aims that we
have set ourselves to raise the
well-being of the Soviet people
and implement the economic
construction plans, we need
peace"

The last object thrown through
the windows at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. L, c. Bates, just hours
before iron screens were installed
to protect the houses interior,
had a crudely written message
warning: Rock this time, Dyna-
mite next time. Although sever
i months late, the perpetrators
of that crude warning, found the
opportunity Tuesday night, luly
y at 1908 to make good their
threat.
From a passing automobile that
the presence of private guards
prevented from stopping, bomb
IS hurled at the Bates, home. 1t
fell in the yard few feet from
the sidewalk and exploded, rock
ing dwellings WITHIN an area of
several blocks, and was heard
several miles. The damage was
minor, only hole in the yard,
Threats on the Bateses' lives
date as far back as the early for
ties, when they first founded the
State Press which they are still
publishing. These threats were
considered made more or less by
como discounted individuals to
friglTten them into the submissive
mores patterned by the whites
which were accepted by the local
Negroes. But irrespective of the
motives behind the threats, they
have had no bearings in sharing
the lives of the Bateses.
In later years as the Arkansas
white man became more enlight-
ened. and as the clouds of the Civil
War became clearer, after every
legal manuever had been tried on
the Bateses even to economic re-
prisal, failed to rid Arkansas of
the pair, the threats against their
safety grew less.
In the early part of 1855 al
ter the United States Supreme
Court had made lawful the way

the lead in Arkansas of the Ma

was renewed.
The stark realization that the
NAACP was not an organization
to compromise principles, and the
state head was not to sacri-

But in the face of these be-

They Should Be Told

A news dispatch from Floyd, Vir-
GINA, in the southwest section of the
State, says that several" parents of
Negro children seeking transfers to
white high school-the only high school
in the county-did not know what they
were signing when they authorized
desegregation suit to be filed last March.
One mother said she thought she was
signing paper authorizing a NAACP
lawyer to try to get the local authorities
to build Negro high school.
The significance of this should not
be exaggerated. Generally speaking,
Negro parents know what they are doing
when they become parties to desegrega-
ton suits. This is not the first instance,
however, in which parents in Virginia
cases have said they did not know what
they were signing, and this is wrong.
The NAACP representatives, or whoever
acts in behalf of the parents, ought to
explain fully to them the nature of
the subsequently, in communities in
which desegregation can be expected to
lead to closed schools for both white
and colored.

Users Should Pay

The failure of the House Ways and
Means Committee to adopt the logical
solution to the national highway crisis
a cent and half increase in the Fed
eral gasoline tax-is due largely, and
ironically, to opposition from the people
who stand to gain the moSt-the high
way users. In a very real sense, such
user groups as the American Automobile
Association are acting like their own
worst enemies.
~ No one, of course, welcomes any tax
increase. But neither is anything free.
And we are convinced that most motor
lists would agree that the slight 1K-
gallon boost proposed by the
President is small price to pay for the
prospect of a Federal aid system of
highways that would handle the dis
maying traffic volumes building up
across the country The organized high
way user groups, however, have devised
elaborate arguments why someone else
should pay. And in most instances, that
someone else is the Federal Govern
ment
The AAA position, for example, is
based largely on the fact that a re-
analysis of the entire national highway
financing picture is due in 1861, in which
an effort will be made to relate highway
charges more directly to highway bene-
fits. This study, the AAA believes, may
well provide for some increased levieS
on truckers, and will also draw on gen.
eral government revenues as result OF
the defense aspects of highways. Once
the gas tax raise is imposed on pas
Senger car users, however, they argue,
it never will be lifted.
Even if this were true, we think the
tax increase would be fair. The advan-
tageS of highway program that would
pay it's own way far Offset one which
would require deficit financing by the
Government. We do not believe, how
ever, that the premises of the AAA are
correct. The re-analysis-if it amounts
to anything - certainly can become
the basis for shifting highway charges
wherever they are justified. The pro-
posed lucent raise, furthermore, would
extend only through 1864.
The alternative to this assessment,
which must be faced up to by the auto
mobile groups, the truckers and the oil
companies, is drastic cutback in the
highway program if the inf1ationary and
politically questionable bond issue pro-
posal approved by the House committee
is adopted. This proposal should be re-
jected, and the tax increase should be
enacted in its place.
