November 5
BY the Associated Press

India's Prime Minister Nehru

Der 5 to start l2-day official
visit to the United States and
Mexico, the State Department
said today.
At the invitation of President

A welcome with full military
honors will be given Mr.. Nehru
here.
1t was learned from diplo-
matte sources that the Presi-
dent and the Prime Minister
plan to dispense with ceremony
as much as possible to enable
them to have long talks on thu
world situation both here and
at Hyannis Port.
Mr.. Nehru will be 70 on

will be flying from Los Angeles
to Mexico City for a three-day
stay. his first visit to Mexico.

A new procedural squabble
broke out when the committee
chairman, Ambassador Mario
Amadeo of Argentina, ruled he
would put the Iranian motion

speakers on each side.
Bulgaria moved for adjourn
ment of the meeting, but the
motion was rejected, "a to 81,
with Is abstaining.
Soviet Delegate Semyon K.
Tsarapkin then challenged the
ruling of the chairman. He
charged Mr.. Amadeo had act
ed arbitrarily and illegally in
ruling that the committee
could suspend its general de-
bate temporarily, to give urgent
consideration of a single reso-
luton. Mr.. Tsarapkin said the
Iranian move was part Of a
NATO plan and he urged the
chairman not to be a party
to such maneuvering.
The committee quickly de-
.feated the Soviet challenge.
The vote was 20 in favor, 40
against and 81 abstaining.

New u. N. Move Made
On Bomb Plea to Reds

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Oct. Is (AP) "A new move was
launched today to get urgent
United Nations action on an
appeal to the Soviet Union to
cancel its proposed explosion
of a 50-megaton hydrogen
bomb.
The move was made by Iran
ian Delegate Mehdi Vakil, one
of the sponsors of the eight
nation resolution. He formally
called on the General AS
sembly's main Political Com
mittee to suspend temporarily
its general debate on nuclear
testing and to take up the pro-
posed appeal to Moscow i'm
mediately.
Previous efforts to give the
appeal urgent treatment were
stalled by a procedural Wrangle
touched off by the Soviet bloc.
The new strategy of seeking to
suspend the general discussion
rather than to terminate it was
agreed by the sponsors this
morning.
Sponsors of the proposed ap-

New Secretary
Seen in Week
By Stevenson

SAN FRANCISCO. Calf. Oct.
IS (AP).-Ambassador Adlai E.
Stevenson expressed belief last
night that the crisis over nam
ing an interim U. N. Secretary
General will be resolved this
week.
The chief United States dele
gate to the United Nations said
the Soviet Union now seems to
have given up insistence on
ANY sort Of veto. open or dis
guised," within the U. N. Sec
retariat.
In a U. N. Day speech before
the San Francisco chapter Of
the American Association for
the United Nations, Mr.. Steven
son declared:
This brings us very close to
the moment when the members
can choose the successor to Dag
Hammarskjold.
Most Acute Crisis
ut is none too soon. The
Secretariat has been without its
single head since that tragic day
nearly six long weeks ago when
Mr.. Hammarskjold was killed in
an African plane crash. This
is our most acute crisis. Its
solution must be found this
week-and I believe it will"
Both the Soviet Union and
the United States have agreed
on the man for the job -
Burma's Ambassador U Thant.
Mr.. Stevenson said the
United States had suggested
that he and five undersecre-
taries would represent the six
man geographic areas of the
world-Asia, the Soviet Union,
the United States, Latin Amer
lea, Africa and Western Europe.
Soviet Still Pressing
The Soviet Union is under
stood to be still pressing for an
additional representative for
Eastern Europe if Western
Europe is included.
Mr.. Stevenson said the So
Wet Union gave up on "troika"
the idea Of a three-man Sec
retariat made up of a Com
munist, Western and neutral
representative-when it found
no U. N. support outside the
Soviet orbit.
He cautioned that what we
do Professionally to fill the
office of secretary general may
well be permanent.
ANY decisions now which
would compromise the effici-
ency and integrity of the Sec
retariat as an operating agency
would be the first step on the
slippery path down hill to a
debating society without opera
tional responsibilities or com.
petence."

serious and touchy issue.
Similar commuter problems
face a dozen other crowded
Eastern cities to a lesser degree.
Among complaints voiced
by the railroad presidents were
these:

in a real public crisis" said
Allen J. Greenough, head of
the Pennsylvania Railroad,
with many important lines in
worse shape than during the
depression of the 1905"
Government has spent $140
billion on highways and over
50 billion on air facilities. but
the railroads finance their own
facilities, he said. He urged
equal treatment for all COM
mon carriers.
Uncle Sam should make
trucks, airlines and inland
barges pay their share of the
public facilities they use-or
let the railroad get into these
modes of transport without re-
strictionS, argued Jervis Lang
don. jr., president of the B6SO.
Mackie Hits Taxes
The most controversial state
ment came from David I
Mackie, chairman of the East
ern Railroad Presidents Con-
ference. He charged that tax
assessments on railroads go far
beyond those on other property.
Perry M. Shoemaker. board
chairman of the Erie-Lacka-
wanna Railroad, declared fatty
there should be no taxes on
commuter trains or stations.
He dumped the problem in the
laps of the governors, insisting
that commuter trouble rests
entirely with States and cities,
not with the Federal Govern
ment.

MOSCOW, Oct. IS (AP).-
Foreign Minister Andrei A.
Gromyko said today the Soviet
Union is making every possible
effort to find an agreed solu-
ton to the German problem
with the Western powers. He
told delegates to the 22d Com
munist Party Congress, how
ever. that If this falls the So
Wet Union will 60 ahead and
sign a separate peace pact with
East Germany.
Following Premier Khru-
Shchev's lead, Mr.. Gromyko re-
Trained from repeating earlier
Kremlin ultimatum that this
would have to be done by the
end Of 1861.
Mr.. Gromyko's speech-or at
least that summary of 1t which
was officially released immedi-
ately-seemed aimed a treliev-
ing tension.
Nevertheless Mr.. Gromyko
declared West Germany would
become a cemetery "in which
one probably would not find
even gravediggers" If German
revenge-seekers and their
friends threaten the Soviet
Union.
Recalls Vienna Meeting
Mr.. Gromyko told the Com
muniSt Congress the Soviet
Union is ready Ito go to the
end when it is necessary to
stand UP for the right cause
and cramp the forces Of ag-
greSsion.
Calling the meeting in
Vienna last May between Soviet
Premier Khrushchev and Presi-
dent Kennedy "one Of the most
outstanding events OF our
time" he said the interests Of
the Soviet Union and the en-
tire Communist camp were
upheld with revolutionary
passion"
He said he was sure that

They swung the car around and
faced it toward the east again.
Abruptly, the jeep engines
started up. The military police
climbed in, rifles at the ready.
They're going in, they're
going in" someone yelled.
The jeeps and car moved for
ward.
The crowds on both sides of
the border stood motionleSs.
They'll never dare shoot, ~
said the storekeeper.
They didn't. The VopoS
moved aside as the little con-
voy snaked through the zig-zag
concrete barrier and on into
East Berlin. The vehicles drove
through the silent East Berlin
crowd at the first border, down
another block, U-turned and
were back in West Berlin within
two minutes.
VERY good" said the store
keeper. But too quick to
make much impression on
them"
The incident seemed closed,
but again the street was
cleared.
A sudden cheer went through
the West Berlin crowd.
Then, with a roar, three
Patton tanks numbered around
the corner into the narrow
street and drove almost up to
the white line marking the
border. their heavy gun barrels
pointed straight at the East
Berlin police.

a West Berlin policeman asked
his colleague.
"Of course not" the other
replied. ITS just a show of
force"
1t was the second time this
week that American troops had
entered East Berlin to escort
United States civilians defying
the Communist requirement
that they show their identity
papers to the East German po-
lice when entering the Soviet
sector. Allied personnel have
been instructed to ignore the
order because the allies do not
recognize the East German re-
gime and also claim the right
Of free movement through all
Of Berlin for their garrison
personnel, both military and
civilian.
Mixup on Orders
On Sunday night the East
German police halted Mr..
Lghtner and his wife when they
refused to show their papers
while on their way to an East
Berlin theater. A detachment
OF American MPs escorted them
through the border point.
In Washington last night
Lincoln White, the United
States State Department
spokesman, reiterated that
American civilians as well as
military officials have the right
to move freely about Berlin.
But somebody in the United
States mission got their wires
crossed yesterday. and for eight
hours American military police
kept civilian employees Of the
mission from entering East
Berlin. The ban was lifted
after Mr.. White told reporters
in Washington the restriction
had been the result of a mis-
understanding.
The ban did not apply to
newsmen and other foreigners
who are not members of the
allied garrison in Berlin. AL
though their automobiles US
ually carry allied license plates,
they show their passports to
the East German police.

A $465 million program OF
Federal aid to the States to
fight water pollution over the
next five years is ready to go to
conference today after having
passed the Senate late yester-
day.
The House previously had
passed a bill authorizing $500
million over a longer period OF
time. The differences in the
two measures will have to be
adjusted by conferees.
The District of Columbia is
eligible to share with the States
in the distribution of this pro-
gram.
Another big Federal aid
measure-the highway bill
moved close to final enactment
yesterday when conferees
agreed on q two-year extension
of the Federal bonus to States
which curb billboards along
the main interstate system.
Nine States already have
passed the necessary reStric-
tions to receive the bonus and
others are expected to do SO
under the extension.
All that remains to send the
highway bill to the White House
is for both branches of Con-
gress to ratify the conference
report, which probably will be
done early next week.
The highway bill also author
izes the $11.5 billion addi-

tional needed to meet the Fed
eral share of completing the
41,000 miles of the interstate
system by 1912. 1t also increases
some of the motor vehicles
taxes to meet the added cost.
The Senate version of the
water pollution bill increases
the authorization for Federal
contributions toward sewage
treatment facilities from $50
million a year to a sliding scale.
For the coming year it would
authorize $40 million, which
would go up to $50 million in
1868, $50 million in 1864 and
$100 million each in 1865 and
1866.
The House bill authorized
$100 million annually up to a

Both bills authorize S. mil

hearing he once had to break
up a TV adaptation into four
acts, instead of three, to pro-
vide for extra commercials.
"The commercial really is
more important than the
story" Mr.. Aurthur said. "The
drama is something that goes
in between commercials and
will be sacrificed any time for
commercials"
Mrs. Mildred F. Alberg, a
producer, referred to ratings as
"the numbers game" and said
she believed that mot many
people in the industry really
accept them"
Playwright Gore Vidal said
he was told not to write about

though murder and sadism
were all right"
He said exploitation of chill

easily the most immoral thing
in this country" He advocated
