Disarmament:
Police Plan

The Geneva donation confer
ence on disarmament, stalled
since its opening, remained
stalled last week as each side
elaborated on plans already re-
jected by the other.
The Western nations insist that
international controls must be
nearly foolproof before any sig
nif1cant disarmament moves can
be attempted. The Eastern bloc
SCOTS at this with the observa-
ton that if disarmament is
achieved there will be nothing to
control or inspect.
With every delegate knowing
full well that almost no likelihood
of progress exists at the diSarma-
ment talks until at least the end
of the May summit conference,

Relieving Tensions

But Mr.. Dillon's remarks also
included an emphasis on the i'm
mediate necessity for removing
existing tensions. even if only by
interim arrangements" And al
most as he was speaking, there
came from West Germany'S For
eign Minister Heinrich Won Bren-
tano and East Germany's First
Secretary Walter Ulbricht, quite
independently, of course, asSur-
anCeS that the question of West
Berlin was one for which an in
term arrangement" might suffice
for the summit.
Another surprise in the CO.
existence drama came Thursday.
The United Nations Economic
Commission for Europe has held
Is sessions at Geneva in an effort
to transform the Organization for
European Economic Cooperation
into a Donation body to include
the United States and Canada.
The original OEEC was set up to
implement the Marshall Plan for
economic aid to Europe, which the
Soviet Union spurned. But times
have changed. Thursday the So
Wet delegate to the U. N. meeting,
Nikolai P. Firyubin, offered to join
and support the new organization
"in the interests of world eco
nomic cooperation" The Soviet
move was ascribed to concern lest
the growing rivalry between the
Common Market" and the Out

The Test Ban:
Cheating?

A subcommittee Of the Joint
Congressional Committee on
Atomic Energy heard testimony
last week that present. day
science could not check effec-
lively on clandestine nuclear
explosions in violation of a ban.
Benjamin Disraeli once advised
a young colleague never to as
sumo publicly that an opponent
would cheat on an agreement.
IF you do" said the willy Briton,
"he will take it as a challenge.
And if you set watch on him,
he will never rest until he's found
a way to confound the watch"
But cheating on an interna-
tional scale appears to be a mat
ter Of major concern to members
of the Joint Committee on Atomic
Energy of the United States Con-
gress. For three days last week,
the lawmakers listened, with OBJ
viouS approval, to scientists testi-
flying that present detection meth
DDS and proposed inspection pro-
cedures were inadequate to in
sure against violation of a ban
on nuclear tests.

venson - Democratic aspirants,
all - that Mr.. Kennedy really
examined the issue in all its as
poets.
He restated his belief in the
separation of church and state
and urged, in effect, that the coun-
try and its press turn their atten-
ton to what should be more
pertinent matters in the business
Of selecting presidential candi-
dates. He pinpointed his remarks
this way:
There is only one legitimate
question underlying ali the rest:
Would you as President of the
United States. be responsive in
any way to ecclesiastical p.essures
or obligations of any kind that
might influence or interfere with
your conduct Of that Office in the
national interest?' l have an
swered that question many times.
My answer was-and is-'No.'"

the arms-cut sessions droned on
last week. The Vests contribu-
ton, one received in a chill silence
by RuSsia's Valerian A. Zorin. was
a rough sketch of a control-and-
inspection system to be instituted
whenever agreement was reached
on a 2.5-million-man ceiling for
the United States and Soviet
armed forces.
Under the American-prepared
plan, spot checks about four times
yearly, low-level aerial inspection
of transportation centers, and
physical counts of ships crews
plus a continuing check on troop
movements whether at home or
abroad would be agreed upon.
Each nation accepting a man.
power ceiling would become a part
Of the check system after it was
begun by the worlds two largest
military powers.
Mr.. Zorin hardly needed to re-
ply in detail to the proposal,
since the Soviet side has made
plain its aversion to putting con-
trolls ahead of disarmament itself.
The Soviet contention has been
that agreement in principle" on
total disarmament, in steps, must
precede any control ARRANGEMENTS.
American Chief DELEGATE Fredrick
M. Eaton insists in turn that
such an agreement in principle"
without controls would be a cruel
deception" on the worlds peoples.

could have an important effect on
the administrators future posi-
ton at the Geneva test ban talks,
now in recess. Back in 1858. a
special conference of American,
British and Soviet scientists
agreed that inspection was feas-
ible and effective, and they set up
minimum standards. Those stand
ards. Those standards, accepted
at Geneva reluctantly by the So
Wet side, ar enow called useless.
Most prominent among the
scientific witnesses last week in
the august old Supreme Court
chamber in the Capitol were DR..
Edward Teller, so-called father
of the H-bomb" and close sup
porter of the former Atomic
Energy Commission Chairman
Lewis L. Strauss, who has con-
sistently opposed any cessation of
testing, and DR.. Hans Bethe. Cor
nell University physicist and nu-
CIear expert VINO has been lead
ing advocate of a ban.
Both DR.. Teller and DR.. Bethe
agreed that the existing check-up
program was now inadequate. DR..
Bethe, who participated in the
original shaping Of the inspection
plan, now says that 900 rather
than l80 stations would be needed
to keep abreast of improved meth
ods in the art of concealment,
especially of underground tests.
The lawmakers also heard an
estimate of the cost of setting up
even the HESITATION system; ST.
250io00000, if adequate seismo-
graphic equipment were included.

austere, aloof, or naughty, de-
clared himself for a detente at
the summit. What is paramount
is to accomplish a detente," the
general told the attentive throng
Of newSmen; such is my philos-
ophy if we do not wish to
wage war, we must wage peace.
I think the summit is
good beginning" Expressive, ar
ticulate, and in full possession
of worthy sense of humor, Gen.
de Gaulle reminded his ques-
TONERS that the Soviet Union of
today is not the Soviet Union
of yesterday. or even of 10 years
ago"
The Frenchman cautioned that
the task of the first summit should
be the achievement of a detente,
not the tackling of major issues.
Somewhat in contrast to the con-
ciliatory and nonprovocative atti-
tudes prevailing recently in State
Department and high administra-
ton quarters, Undersecretary of
State Douglas Dillon last Wednes-
day voiced a hard and gloomy
evaluation of the East-West polit-
ical situation and the prospects
for an end to the cold war. In
words reminiscent of the sternest
days of the late John Foster
Dulles, Mr.. Dillon warned that
the West would never let West
Berlin be sold into slavery" said
that Mr.. Khrushchev'S threats to
sign a separate peace treaty with
East Germany was really skating
on thin ice" and asserted that
Moscow was going to be pro
foundly disillusioned" if Western

At Gettysburg

At Gettysburg today, and in a
final talk tomorrow before the
general leaves for a brief visit to
New York, he and Mr.. Eisenhower
will have a great deal more to
talk about than they did on the
occasion Of their last meeting, in
Paris last December. Since then,
Gen. de Gaulle has talked at lei
surely length with Soviet Premier
Khrushchev, and the Frenchman
asked no quarter and offered no
propitiatory sacrifices to the leader
of world communism. If the public
remarks Of Mr.. Khrushchev are
any indication. the De Gaulle sta
ture suffered not a whit in the
process.
The French President has the
confidence of West Germany's
Chancellor Adenauer, and is ex-
peCted at the summit meeting next
month to represent ably that de-
termined statesman's point of
view. He has also won, not with
out difficulty, the respect and
even the affection of British Prime
Minister Macmillan and the chief
architects of Whitehall's foreign
policy, which has had little in
common with Bonn'S. But in his
talks with Mr.. Eisenhower, Just
as in his previous conversations
with the other allied leaders and
with Mr.. Khrushchev, no one
doubts that Charles de Gaulle will
remain exactly that. He is France,
and he will speak for France.
When the bits and pieces of in
ternational puzzlery began to fall
into the rough shape Of an in
evitable summit conference last
year, it was widely reported that
President de Gaulle would be a
stubborn resiStor planted squarely
across the path of peaceful CO.
existence" In the very beginning,
he had his way as to the time and
indeed even the place of the still
to-be- summit talks. In
defiance of world opinion and in
majestic disdain of the Geneva
conference on a worldwide ban
on nuclear testing, the general
split the Sahara's nighttime soli-
tude last February with the blast
of the first French nuclear eXplo-
sion.

ing is as undesirable as racial
labelling"
Vice President Nixon stated his
feeling on the matter when he
told the ASNE that the only way
religion could become a legitimate
issue in American politics would
be for one of the candidates to be
an atheist.
InasmuCh as all the present
candidates have religious beliefs
there is no excuse for the contin-
ued discussion of the so-called re-
ligiouS issue IN this campaign"
he said.
But despite the pleas of every
major candidate in either political
party, can the issue once raised
be exercised?

Too Little Tact

The President, now IS but re-
markably vigorous, has ruled his
republic with more energy than
tact. Opposition political leaders
have been Systematically har-
rassed, arrested. imprisoned, and.
if elected. ousted. In mid-March
elections were held in which Mr..
Rhee. unoppoSed for reelection
since the candidate of the OPP
position Democratic party died,
was returned to Office handily. But
his hand-picked candidate for Vice
President, Lee Ki-poong. won by
what Mr.. Rhee's foes called official
rigging" including police intim-
idation, ballot-baX stuffipg, dis
qualification of opposition voters,
and all the ancient devices of elec-
ton Skulduggery.
Last weeks violence, in which
probably more than 100 died when
police fired directly into student
demonstrators, stemmed from
long-seething resentment Of the
Rhee steel-fst teChniques, ignited
at last by the election scandals.

South Kored:
Violence

Anti-Rhee demonstrations In
Korean cities exploded into viO-
lence last week. Students pro-
testing recent elections were
shot down by police in Seoul
and other centers. President
Rhee offered some concessions.
For many a weary year during
the japanese occupation of Korea,
Syngman Rhee carried the torch
of independence for mis- captive
country. After the liberation" IN
l945, with United States help, he
went back to Seoul and set up a
Korean republic on parliamentary
lines.
But the loss of industrial North
Korea, at the very birth of the
new Korean republic, crippled Mr..
Rhee's chances to build a stable,
prosperous nation. Then in 1850
the Communists from the North
stormed across the 36th Parallel
and very nearly ended the brief
career Of the republic. United
Nations, and principally United
States. military assistance, at tre-
mendous cost in lives and treas
ure. saved Mr.. Rhee's government
from extinction.
Since 1858 an uneasy truce
existed between North and South.
The armistice ended the sangu-
mary fighting but did nothing to
settle the basic problems of separ-
alton. Mr.. Rhee has made no secret
of his desire to attack the North
and reopen the war; that he has
not done so is attributable to the
restraining hand of Washington.
The ROK army is supplied only
with enough gasoline and ammu-
milton for a day or two.

Causes of Friction

But advance predictions of the
De Gaulle role at the summit con-
ference have changed indeed
since the first, over-simplified car
features portraying him as re-
luctant dragon. Analysis Of his
discussions. insofar as they are re-
ported. with Mr. Khrushchev and
Mr.. Macmillan indicates that Gen.
de Gaulle will be neither an ap-
peaser nor a provocateur He is
said to be convinced that the cause
of peace can be best served by:
0 Earnest and implemented ef-
forts to remove immediate causes
of friction between East and West.
0 Realization that communism is
a fact of life dominating the af-
fairs Of much of the worlds
peoples.
Q Acceptance of the fact that
nuclear warfare between the blocs,
or between the Soviet Union and
the United States, would be ami
hilatlng.
. Recognition on the Vests part
that. for an extended period,
strong deterrent forces and de-
fenseS must be maintained at top
efficiency.
The French Presidents views
are not considered likely to be far
removed from those of Mr.. Eisen-
hover or Of Secretary of State
Herter. Mr.. Herter. talking over
coffee and rolls with the members
of the Senate Committee on For
eicn Relations Thursday. said
that in his estimation the summit
meeting would serve to prove.
whatever else it might or might
not achieve. the real intentions of

Rebuke From u. S.

In very unusual, but In
the circumstances, understandable
move. the United States promptly
took a direct hand in Koreas
internal affairs. Secretary of State
Herter summoned the Korean
Ambassador and handed him a
severe rebuke, almost unprec-
edented in its bluntness. The
actions of the Rhee regime, Mr..
Herter said, we're "represSlve
measures unsuited to a free democ-
racy"
The violence ceased, although
the demonstrations did not. Police
and ROK troops, acting under
martial law imposed by Mr.. Rhee,
avoided further shooting. The
Rhee Cabinet resigned, as did the
present Vice President, John
Chang, a Rhee opponent. Mr..
Rhee called in opposition leaders
for conferences, ard announced
that he would restore the premier
system, abolished by Mr.. Rhee in
1854. He said he would relinquish
