leaders OF their dinner dist
Nikita S. KhruShcheu Sundd
President Walter p. Reuther
of the United Auto Workers
pointed out to Mr.. Khrushchev
that since the table legs fell
precisely where Mr., Khrushchev
was to sit. he had been shifted
slightly to the right.
REUTHER: Even though /
have shifted you to the right,
Mr.. Chairman. l assure you
there is no political significance
in it.
KHRUSHCHEV laughing:
No matter how you move me, l
will still hold to a basic Com
munist position. Everything is
fluid and everything progresses
toward communism.
KHRUSHCHEV: A very
noble goal.
JAMES B. CAREY, president,
1r irrational Union Of Elec-
IT. :al, Radio and Machine
W rkers:
When there is such ire
n 'dously high percentage OF
T. national incomes of both
c tries spent in military
. arations. doesn't it become
m e and more demanding
that we find a formula of con-
troll and inspection? Your
country is spending $40 billion
a year on the military, our
country is spending $40 billion
a year. If there were a COM
pletely safe inspection and
control system how much more
aid could we provide to the
under-privileged countries Of
the world?
KHRUSHCHEV: We agree.
And that's why we submitted
our proposals.
REUTHER: There's no value
In this, just going around the
barn, as we seem to be now.
I am familiar with the steel
plant in India and the other
enterprises. When you do it.
it's part of the cold war. When
we do it, you charge it's CAPT.
talist imperialism. Why can't
we do it together? Through
the U. N.?-do it together for
their benefit, not for our sepa-
rate advantage.
KHRUSHCHEV: We don't
agree.
REUTHER: Why not?
KHRUSHCHEV: America has
now surrounded us with mill
tary bases, alliances such as
NATO and SEATO. and by
these means the United States
wants to obtain world DONNA
ton. In the United Nations
we are always out-voted. Thus
it would be up to the United
States to decide how the money
would be used.
REUTHER: How about a
q. N. commission with equal
representation? Equal repre-
sentation of Russia and the
United States and United States
friends and Soviet friends.
KHRUSHCHEV: That would
already be progress, but it
won't be accepted.
REUTHER: Why not expose
the two positions to public air?
That's what we do with un-
reasonable employers.
KHRUSHCHEV: So long as
we are surrounded by United
States bases, we can have no
agreement on this.
REUTHER: You exploit the
workers of East Germany.
KHRUSHCHEV: Where did
you dream that up?
REUTER-: If you don't ex-
plot them, why should 3 mil
lion of them cross the border
into West Germany?
KHRUSHCHEV: You are
hopelessly sick with capitalist
fever.
Several voices interchanging
across table,
REUTHER: The workers in
West Germany are free.
KHRUSHCHEV: We are free
too.

REUTER-: Do you have
credentials to speak for the
workers of the world?
KHRUSHCHEV: Do you have

CAREY: This is part of our
difficulty: The fear of the
Chairman that the United
States actually wants to domi-
nate the world.
KHRUSHCHEV: Not just
wants-Strivingl
CAREY: And the other way
around. there is the fear in the
United States. based on much
evidence, that the Soviet Union
wants to dominate the world.

because in what other country

KHRUSHCHEV: Juridically,
yes.

1t took me so long to get the
floor, I want to exercise my
democratic rights and ask two
questions. Mr.. Chairman, you
have made repeated statements
regarding self determination
and the freedom Of people
from outside interference. We
agree with you on both Of these
principles. However. we cannot
understand, since you say you
favor the right of the German
people, both East and West, Il
decide for themselves on unfit
cation. how do you visualize
the German people making this
decision since you continue to
oppose a free and democratic
vote by the German people on
this issue? My second question
is, in view of your statements
favoring self determination
and non interference in the
internal affairs of other ma
tons and your statements sup
porting peaceful co-existence
how do you reconcile these
statements with the harsh MILL
tary suppression of the Hun
garian freedom fighters by the
Soviet military powers. O.
