CONE TO
REST

Two anchors with a fresh
coat of black paint now
grace the entrance to the
Naval Observatory grounds.
They were the first thing
that guests spotted on their
arrival for the Friday night
party given by Chief of
Naval Operations and Mrs.
Arleigh Burke at Admiral's
House. They were installed
in their concrete bases
early last week.
The nautical decor was
Admiral Burke's idea. The
anchors. one cast and the
other forged. are both OBJ
solete items obtained from
Navy surplus storage.
To the public driving by
on Massachusetts avenue
the anchors may look huge.
But they're small" to an
experienced Navy eye-a
type that once were used
to anchor destroyers.
In fact the Navy no
longer uses this shape of
anchor on its larger ships.
1t now uses a patent an
chor which has a COM
pletely different design.

superficial reasoning" which
would put the blame on that
country for the present crisis
in the Congo.
Speaking at a banquet
session of the National Asso-
ciation Of Women Lawyers at
the Standardization Hotel,
the legislator also said the
Congo situation presents to
lawyers "the most interesting.
if not the most primitive legal
problem. Of many centuries.
Mrs. Grifiths said she
would assume the Belgians
granted freedom to the Congo
as quickly as they did, be-
cause they felt the problem
of keeping order. quashing
riots, and maintaining peace
was not worth the price it
would cost them. Consider,
for instance, the fantastic
price to France Of maintain
ing Algiers." she noted.
Even had Belgium re-
manned in the Congo, how
ever. it could not have relied
upon the sympathetic under
standing Of the rest of the
world. If it had been neceS-
sary to deal with local riots
and rebellions. she asserted.
World as Audience
"Shakespeare's romantic
and dramatic All of the
worlds a stage has become,
All of the world is an au-
dience.'" she declared. And
all of the audience is pre-
pared to throw rotten to-
matoes, some of which might
be loaded with hydrogen
bombs"
AS for Belgium's failure
to train more CongoleSe to
take over the reins of gov
ernment, the speaker said
that in 1891 there were only

The women lawyers went

this weeks convention Of the

The vote was unanimous.
The NAWL delegates also

January.
In another resolution, they
urged continued support to

to more than 81 million
natives. And during at least
the first so years Of Belgian
rule, "the prevailing ideas of
the rulers of the Western
World were that colored peo-
pie could not be educated to
white mems standards" she
continued.
The Congo situation has
reawakened "all Of us
to the painful knowledge
that a nation cannot be
maintained. even if estab-
lished, unless it can guaran-
tee the peace within its own
boundaries" Mrs. Griffith
noted.
Congo Poses Question
The question posed by the
Belgian Congo" she con-
tinued. lis whether men of
the Goth Century. working
in cooperation, can bring
men of the Stone Age into
the goth Century, or whether
the cooperation will be re-
placed by a war so calami-
tous that the goth Century
will be pulled back into the
Stone Age"
Mrs. Griffiths also declared
the United States cannot
abandon its interest in the
Congo, partly because the
Soviets could be expected to
Immediately extend their
rule to this richest mineral
area" of Africa.
Mrs. Pearl Carter Pace,
chairman of the Foreign
Claims Settlement Commis-
sion, also addressed the
women lawyers yesterday,
detailing the work of the
commission in protecting
American citizens from in
juries to person or property
on the part of foreign powers.

burden Of proving their
claims, she pointed out. the

Peaceful VS.. Military
There is a distinction, too,
between peaceful-use satellites
and military satellites-stilI in
the dreaming and planning
stages. Presumably a nation
has a right to shoot down a
menacing weapons satellite,
under its recognized right of
self-defense.
President Eisenhower was
asked at his news conference
yesterday whether future see
ing-eye satellites like Samos
and Midas might ease his wor-
rieS about spotting a Soviet
buildup for surprise attack.
Mr.. Eisenhower replied that
these projects are still in the
research stage and he could not
yet predict how useful they
would turn out to be.
He noted that Tiros is send

DESIGNER SAYS
REDS SWITCHED
PLANE WRECKAGE

BURBANK, Calf, May
IL (AP).-The designer of
the U-2 high altitude spy
plane says the Russians
switched wreckage in re-
leasing a second picture
purporting to show a down.
ed American plane.
This looks more like it."

heed Aircraft when shown

Wet picture showing wreck

This definitely is not the
same wreckage shown in
the first picture released by
the Russians" he said.
That was of a heavy air
plane. This is a lightweight
one, like the U-2."
Mr.. johnson has called
the first picture made pub
lie by the Russians a fake.
He planned to examine the

Flying over other countries is
legal if it's done high enough
.up-in space-say United States
international law experts ia
miliar with the launching of
the American weather-eye sat-
elite Tiros 1 and other man
made moons.
The situation is different
with airplanes, including the
American U-2 which came
down deep inside Russia May l..
1t is we'll established in inter-
national law that a nations
sovereignty extends into the air
space above its land territory.
This country has sought to
justify the U-2 plane flights
not under international law,
but under the requirements of
self defense.
international law-which is
based on international agree
ments, practice and writings
is still in its infancy in the new
world Of space.
United States authorities say,
however, that under developing
law it appears to be perfectly
legal for a nation to toss up a
peaceful-purpose satellite with
out others permission even
though the satellite does roam
across international borders.
U. N. UphOlds Legality
The legality of such launch
ings was indicated in a U. N.
Space Committee report last
summer. LaunchingS were made
by both Russia and the United
States under the International
Geophysical Year scientific
program.
Other launchings have been
made without protest from any
nation. Russia has raised no
objection to the picture-taking
Tiros, although it was informed
of the project before its launch
ing April /.
In a sense, the developing
law on peaceful use of space
is like that established for the
high seas-freedom outside any
national territorial limits.
Other legal questions inyolv-
ing space are more obscure.
For one thing, there is no in
ternational law saying where
air ends and space begins.
So far this has proved to be
more a theoretical than a prac-
teal problem. The U-2. among
the highest flying of the craft
which ride on air, can cruise at
perhaps II miles altitude.

cident involving United States
planes downed in Cuba and is
certain to infiame relations with
Washington.
Prime Minister Fidel Castro,
members of his government
and the pre-Castro press and
radio have been vehement in
their denunciations of flights
over Cuban territory.
Crop Sabotage Claimed
They say most of the planes
have come from Florida to
sabotage the Cuban sugar crop
by bombing. Reports of in
cendiary bombings have de-
creased recently as United
States officials applied strict
controls on renting planes in
Florida.
The most recent plane in
cident occurred March 81.
Two American pilots, William
j. Shergales of West Hollywood,
Fla. and Howard Louis Rund-
quist of Miami, were forced
down by Cuban soldiers. The
government accused them Of
trying to smuggle supporters
of the deposed Batista dictator
ship out Of Cuba.
Several days later, however,
United States officials said they
had information to grove that
Shergales made the flight as a
Castro agent. Shergaies later
confirmed the flight was
"rigged" with Cuban officials to
create more anti American
feeling in Cuba. The two flyers
were indicted by a Miami grand
jury on May 4 for leaving the
country without filing a flight
plan.
Earlier this year a United
States pilot and a Cuban flyer
were killed by an explosion over
a sugar mill in central Cuba.

The Congressman breakfast
ing with the President reported
that he still hopes for some de-
gree Of progress toward peace
at the summit meeting despite
what amounted to a long-range
exchange of near insults be-
tween the American and Soviet
executives yesterday.
New Fireworks Possible
The jibes seemed to set the
stage for possible fireworks
when the two leaders meet
face -to-face in Paris. This
could lead to a clearing of the
air, or it could result in serious
worSening of United States
Soviet relations, depending
largely on whether Mr.. Khru-
shchev keeps up his act of
being Mortified" at the PreSi-
dents defense of American
planes flying over Russia.
Representative Moore re-
ported that the delay by Soviet
censors in transmission of the
Soviet Premier's full remarks
in an impromptu press confer
ence in Moscow Yesterday fig
ured in the White House break

was reported to have said he

After the Khrushchev visit

talk from Moscow of new

ing sweetness in American
Soviet relations.
Mr.. Eisenhower remarked at
the time that he did not know
what was meant by the spirit
of Camp David" unless it was
an atmosphere in which he and
Mr.. Khrushchev were able to
talk frankly to each other.
While far from the apparently
personally friendly spirit of
their Camp David talks, their
exchange of verbal jibeS yes
terday could hardly be called
anything but frank. If both men
keep their heads-as Mr.. Eisen-
hover seems determined to do
this could pave the way for even
franker discussions when they
meet face to face in Paris next
week.

PARIS

Continued From First Page
KhruShchev may want to with
draw the invitation.
Beyond this, it is thought
that Mr.. KhruShchev is under
stiff pressure from "hard-line
Communists in China, the satel-
liteS and inside Russia itself.
The Red Army leadership has
been highly critical of the
Khrushchev line of "detente'
and disarmament. Three times
within the last six weeks, the
Red Chinese have officially
taken the Russian leader to task
on points of party doctrine. The
plane incident could have been
seized on as justification for a
return to a tougher attitude
toward the West in general.
Doubts on Summit
Certainly also Mr.. Khrushchev
has had increasing doubts about
the probable dividends of a
summit conference. After hav-
ing built up hopes for the meet
ing, he has become convinced
in the course of his recent
travels that the West was not
ready to make important con-
ceSsions anywhere. The best
that might be hoped for, from
his point of view, were agree
ments for more negotiations
carried on in a progressively re-
laxing atmosphere.
He may have now decided
that this is not good enough
in comparison to the propa-
ganda that can be made out
of the plane incident. In the
last few days the Russians have
made it clear that they will not
abide by any rules of secrecy
that the conference may try
to impose on the various dele
cations. They want the whole
show to be as wide open as
possible. Even Mr.. Khru-
shchev's arrival in Paris on
Saturday-ahead of his West
ern colleagues - seems calcu-
lated with an eye on maximum
publicity.
Confidence Shaken
All this augurs very badly in
deed for the meetings which will
get under way here just four
days from now. The experts hope
that they may be wrong and
that Mr.. Khrushchev may still
try for limited agreements that
will give at least a temporary
illusion of success.
But their confidence has been
badly shaken. The evidence is
that Mr.. KhruShchev will come
to Paris with a strategy of at
tacking the United States and
splitting the Western allies.
In this context it promises to
be a rough conference-and
perhaps a short one as we'll.

Powers was captured near
