Dean 10 Leave
Geneva Talks
With BHtOn
Deputies to Stoy
AS Hopes Fode
On A-Test Ban

GENEVA, Nov. 80 (AP).-I
The top American and British
delegates at the nuclear test
ban talks have decided to re-
turn home tomorrow, but will
leave their deputies to continue
the deadlocked conference.
Arthur H. Dean Of the United
States and British Minister of
State Joseph Godber came to
today's third session of the re-
sumed talks with their minds
made up that nothing could be
gained by their continued pres
ence.
Officially, Mr.. Dean is re-
turning to Washington for con-
situations with the Government
on the Soviet rejection of any
kind of international control
machinery.
Mr.. Godber is returning to
New York to resume his post
as head of the British delega-
ton at the United Nations
assembly.
/ No Hope Seen
The Western, side believes the
Soviet Union has eliminated
any prospect for a disarma-
ment agreement at this time
by rejecting the location on its
territory of any International
machinery to control nuclear
weapons testing.
Neither American nor Brit
Iish officials would say that the
Western delegates departure
resulted from a conviction that
the three-year-old negotiations
are now doomed to failure in
their present form.
The deputies, Charles C..
Stelle of the United States and
Sir Micheal Wright of Britain,
are to continue meeting Rus
Sia's Semyon K. Tsarapkin for
the time being.
But as Mr.. Tsarapkin re-
fuses to. discuss controls, and
the West refuses to discuss a
test ban without controls, the
prospects of compromise ap-
pear nil. Any step toward a
test ban would require a funda-
mental revamping of one posi-
ton or the other,
Positions Unchanged
Mr.. Dean and Mr.. Godber
had an opportunity to tell Mr..
Tsarapkin of their departure at
a luncheon Mr.. Dean gave for
his two colleagues Just before
today's session. The luncheon
apparently was held in a
friendly atmosphere, but pro-
duced no change in the frozen
positions.
The talks resumed here Tues
day after a nine-week recess
caused by the Soviet breach of
the East-West nuclear testing
truce.
On the first day Mr.. Tsarap-
kin presented Soviet proposal
for an uncontrolled test ban,
this was promptly rejected by
the West.
Mr.. Tsarapkin also demanded
that France be invited to the
talks. This also was rejected by
the West.
Mr.. Tsarapkin then said he
could discuss nothing else.
Sparring to Continue
Diplomatic sparring is likely
TO continue for some time, but
this. seemed to be aimed mostly
at avoiding the onus of refusing
to talk.

ers, the new welfare rules
state: IAN mothers Of illegiti-
mate children are to be ad-
vised that should they have
any more children out Of we'd
lock. they shall be denied re-

The influx OF outsiders. prin-
cipally from Southern States,
and a nonwhite population in
crease of ISL per cent in the
last 10 years were listed by city
officials as reasons for the in
creased welfare payments.
Other new rules, promul-
gated to check welfare spend
ing, are: All unemployed able
bodied men on relief must re-
port to the public works de-
partment and work q 40-hour
week: where possible, relief
monies earmarked for food and
