her luck but added:
"The photographers scare me
and I think there will be quite
a few at your wedding. So I
hope you'll excuse me if I don't

Before departing on her hon.

"As is his habit, Monsieur
Kennedy was very generous. He
gave me a wonderful gift. I
won't tell you what it is, but he
really spoiled me-"
Francoise said she and Lu-

Monsieur Kennedy had a

whispered in my ear, He is the
man for you. I'm sure he will
make you a good husband"

They have complained that
once application for a zoning
exception is made and State
Department approval given, the
board generally is unlikely to
side with the residents.
Residents, especially those in
the Kalorama area of North
west Washington, have COM
planned that chancerieS in large
numbers cause parking and
other problems that tend to
lower the value of the nearby

Under the new Arrangement,
Mr.. Sanjuan probably will at
tempt to steer ambassadors
away from properties where
there will be an embarrassing
fight-even if he and Mr.. Clou-
ser think the board might rule
in the ambassadors favor.
By entering the scene to-

to stop chancery battles before

Kennedy Picks Stevens
AsCuIture Center Head

President Kennedy yesterday
named Roger L. Stevens, ST.
year-old real estate broker,
Broadway theatrical producer
and Democratic fund-raiser,
the National Cultural Center's
board of trustees and desi-
gnated him chairman.
Announcement of the ap-
pointment was made by White

Mr.. Stevens, once a $12-a-
week gasoline station attend
ant in depression days and later
part owner of the Empire State
Building, is known here for his
activity in redevelopment of
Southwest Washington.
His association with real

ment project in Area B.

His appointment is expected
substantially to boost efforts to
get the Cultural Center project
financed and under construc-
tion.
Mr.. Stevens said, IT think it
is ridiculous that the wealthiest
country in the world hasn't
established a cultural center in
the Nations capital long before
this time.

can to correct this"
He said he hoped that under

would move faster so they could

nuclear testing. opening the
way for testing also by other
countries, brings us to the
brink of war"
Fear creeps into my mind
that we might not be able to
get out of the rut of talking
and of making resolutions,
(that we will beN going home
and allowing the world to drift
into disaster" Mr.. Nehru said.
Appealing for moral pressure
to break the United States
Soviet deadlock over Berlin, he
said he considered the situation
today worse than at any time
since World War II.
Cites NucIear Tests
"I would have suggested
U. N. General Assembly meet
ing on the question of war ana
peace if the Assembly were not
to meet later this month";" Mr..
Nehru told the 24-nation gath
ering.
"The danger of war comes
nearer and nearer. By the re-
cent decision of the Soviet gov-
ernment to start nuclear tests.
Our situation today is the
most dangerous since World
War II ended, and we must dc
something, everything we can,
to help it. Nothing is more
than this situation
of war and peace today. Every
thing else, no matter how vital,
is secondary"
His words fell on the ears of
delegates whose primary
interest at the conference had
been the waging of an anti
colonialist campaign, leaving
such problems as Berlin and
nuclear testing for secondary
consideration.
Cuba's President Osvaldo
Dorticos, representing the only
Western hemisphere delegation
at the meeting, followed Mr..
Nehru to the rostrum to urge
that colonialism remains the
problem of the non
aligned nations.
While Mr.. Nehru counseled
his associates to "use our moral
rightly, with force but
courtesy" the Cuban president
demanded a series of resolu-
tions aimed at the United
States, France, Portugal, Brit
ain, and other "imperialist or
colonial" powers.
Echoing both the words of
Cuban Prime Minister Fidel
Castro and the Soviet line to
which Cuba is tied by political
and economic links, Mr.. Dorti-
