UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-The
explanation Of much that has
happened at Geneva this summer,
United Nations diplomats say, can
be put in one simple proposition:
If Soviet Premier Khrushchev
can split NATo or otherwise
render it ineffective. he will not
have to pay q price for what
he so badly wants-namely, relief
from Western pressures on the
Soviet satellite empire. He viii
have that relief for nothing.
Unhappiiy for the West, there Is
very real possibility that. unless
current riffs in NATO are healed.
Mr.. Khrushchev win in fact get
his relief ON q silver platter. A
weakened and divided NATO
would not exert any effective pres
sure. This being the case. Mr..
Khrushchev's man Gromyko has
been sitting very tight at Geneva.
The urgency Of tightening the
joints Of the alliance was re-
flected last week In q proposal
from Rome that the NATO Coun-
ell be called into emergency ses-
sion. preferably at the foreign
minister level.
The principal split in NATO is,
Of course, the one that divides
France from the United States and
Britain. This split springs. in very
large part. from the second East
West meeting which has been
taking place in the Palace Of Ma
tions, Geneva.
Pressure on Fronce
This second meeting Is, Of
course, the conference on a nu-
clear test ban. 1t threatens to
split the West because, If agree
ment were to be reached. there
would be immense pressure on
France to abandon her effort to
become a nuclear power.
France would not be legally
bound by a test-ban treaty. But 1t
would be extraordinarily difficult
for her to defy the great wave Of
public sentiment which would well
up If the Soviet Union, the United
States, and Great Britain were
to agree to end their tests.
From Tokyo to Delhi, and from
Stockholm to Accra, men would
be tossing their hats in the air
in the belief that the danger Of
radiation poisoning had been
ended, and that the spread of
nuclear weapons around the
world had been prevented.
For France thereupon to inject
a new dose Of strontium 80 into
