Kennedy's Firm Stand Against Soviet
Viewed as Encouraging u. S. Allies

at any price, and Paris and
Bonn frankly doubt the Presi-
dents ability to divorce him
self from his theorists.
According to reports from
unimpeachable sources, the
exchange of views, lasting
eight hours. between Mr..
Kennedy and Gen. de Gaulle
caused the French leader to
believe that there is bon
materiel" (good stuff in the
young President. While on
a number of matters. such as
atomic power for NATO, the
gulf persists, on the major
subject of America remain
ing unyielding against Soviet
Premier KhruShchev'S threats.
there was a definite meeting
of minds.
But the test is in the eat
ing of the pudding. And that
test came at Vienna when,
not only according to Mr..
Kennedy's address to the
American people, but also &C
cording to private unqueS-
tionably reliable sources. the
American President did not
bulge despite the Red boss
efforts to inviegle him into at
least partial concessions. Ac-
cording to these unofficial
reports, Mr.. Kennedy told
Mr.. Khrushchev in essence.
without using the actual
words: If you want to push
us into a war you can have
it,"
He also expressed his will
ingnesS to negotiate, as we'll
as his determination not to
yield an inch, at least insofar
as Europe and the NATO are
concerned.
1t is this rather unexpected
result of the Vienna meet
ing which has caused a degree
of exultation in Western
European chancelleries. Even
before Mr.. Kennedy took the
American helm, the conti-
mental powers were trying to
convince Washington that the
combined strength OF the
United States and Europe
was formidable and that
there was no need for ap-
peasement of Russia. Now,

Mayors and Municipalities, said
that he has swapped animals
with cities all over the world as
part of a program to build in
ternational friendships.
For example, he said, I'VE
sent India some beavers as a
gift from the children Of Can
ada to the children of India"
And, he continued, India's
Prime Minister Nehru sent an
elephant to the CRANKY Zoo
from the children of India.
Mayor Boivin said he is un-
able to import any animals
with split hooves from Europe
because of a quarantine to pre-
vent spread of hoof and mouth
disease.
"Since there is no such quar-
antine in effect between Can
ada and the United States
perhaps we could get a gazelle
or some other split-hoof an
imal," Mayor Boivin said.
He said he could send the
Washington Zoo beavers, ot-
ters, snow geese, caribou or elk
depending on what officials
here might be interested in.
The Canadian Mayor said he
is going to confer today with
Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin and officials of the
Washington Zoo about the pos
Sible exchange.
The Mayor said the cages at

crat of Connecticut.
Senator Dodd limited the Rus
slams could be secretly expert
menting to develop the neutron
bomb while the United States
is honoring an atom-test mora
torium.
He put forward such a posi-
bility as an argument for re-
Suming tests.
Senator Dodd-who referred
to the neutron bomb as "a kind
of death day"-Said in a Senate
speech Wednesday that the
bomb would do next to no
physical damage. 1t would re-
suit in no (radioactive) con-
tamination. But it would i'm
mediately destroy all life in the
target area"
Senator Dodd, in warning of
the possibility of the Russians
developing such bomb, said il
was one way "for destroying us
at relatively small risk to them
selves"
Two Possible Versions
Scientists have speculated on
two possible versions of the
bomb:

North American NeWsnaper Alliance

SOUTHPORT, Conn, June
1.-THE Russian word mir"
can mean either peace" or
world" and every Soviet viii
lage billboards the slogan
"Miru Mir: Peace to the
World"
The Russians want both.
But they seem determined to
achieve only Soviet versions of
both. This is why I left the
Crimea fearing that, unless we
Americans and the Russians
develop a new undeI standing,
and new vocabulary in which
to talk out misunderstanding,
neither peace nor the world
will survive.
Today, peace" does not
mean the same thing in Mos
COW and Minnesota. Indeed,
words such as freedom, revolu-
ton, the people, Intervention
and imperialism may have
roughly opposite meanings
when spoken by Russians and
Americans.
Wall of misunderstanding
This is why American some
times have the feeling of par
ticipating in a dialogue of
deaf muteS" in their discus
sions with Russians who are
as earnest and sincere as
themselves. The Soviet propa-
ganda, by our standards, uses
"upside-down language" Thus
when the Russian radio says
democracy-by our standards
it means dictatorship. A good
example is the phrase peoples
democracies" to Scrib e
Poland and Hungary.
In an effort to bre a k
through this wall of misunder-
standing, a group of 35 citizens
from the United States and
the USSR met in a series of
informal, unofficial conferences
in the Crimea between May 81
and %. The Russians would
call the participants "intellec-
tuals." Their representatives
were of course all highly placed
in the Soviet intellectual hier-
archy and many had key party
posts. Ours were all private
citizens.
Although the meetings took
place in the still-churning
wake of Cuba, the Congo and
Laos, both the Russians and
ourselves saw enough value in
this exchange of views to de-
eide to hold third session in
about six months in the United
States. CThey are called Dart
mouth Meetings" because the
first was at Dartmouth last
OctoberJ
U. S. Press Criticized
The American concept of
freedom of speech and press
seemed particularly difficult
for the Soviet delegates to
grasp. Film Director S. A.
Gerasimov reported that. as a
Soviet patriot, he is often ter
rified by what he called the
unSubstantiated insults hurled
at the USSR by the American
press.
F. I. Kozhevnikov, a member
of the International Court of
Justice at the Hague, wondered
why the United States doesn't
have legislation against pro-
noting war. He thought this
would help reduce the number
of irresponsible "warmonger-
ing" statements m a de by
United Stats newspapers. pol
iticians, generals and admirals.
Boris Polevoi, a Soviet writer
who has written a big-selling
book about the United States,
suggested that the Encyclo-
paedia Britannica publish the
same article on "co-eXistence"
that appears in the official
Soviet encyclopaedia. He actu-
ally advocated that all words
be eliminated from books and
dictionaries that have a cold
war taint, or that might
provoke animosity between
nations.
We Americans had to ask if
governments should have a

press monopoly on what is true
and responsible. We asked why
the Soviet government didn't
clean out the insults and anti
American propaganda from
their official broadcasting.
The Soviet military affairs
expert at the meeting, Maj
Gen. N. A. Talensky, criticized
recent American books for de-
scribing the Soviet Union as
a potential aggressor.
In jocular rebuttal, Prof
Lloyd Reynolds of Yale sug-
gested disarmament of the
typewriters" as a means of
easing the flow of Objectionable
printed material.
Margaret Mead, the world
famous anthropologist. told the
Russians they must understand
that, while they believe their
own strength depends on unity
we believe our strength depends
on differences of opinion.
Right to Talk Pointed Out
Dean Erwin GriSwold of the
Harvard Law School granted it
was more difficult for the
SovietS to understand the
Americans than vice versa
Everyone in the United States
he said, has the right to speak
out-and frequently does.
The Soviet conferees dragged
out the skeleton of American
military intervention in Siberia
against the young Red Army
in 1918. Repeated reference to
this, as part of the official
party line and divorced from
its historical background
moved some of my colleagues
to refer to the Soviet role in
Hungary, Wet Nam and the
Congo,
1 seized upon the Siberian
incident to suggest setting up
Soviet-American teams of his
torians to study controversial
subjects of mutual interest in
hop 5 of establishing the facts
rather than to confirm con-
venient political fictions en-
balmed in official propaganda
AS examples of such subjects
1 suggested the Moscow allega-
tion that the American people
want to destroy the Soviet
government, and whether we
Americans do in fact agree
that the USSR may legiti-
mately determine its own form
of government.
Need of Confidence Noted
I said that such joint efforts
to agree on the facts, in order
to curb vicious and untruthful
propaganda, would give the
American people more faith in
the sincerity of the peace and
disarmament petitions to
which Soviet parliamentarians
and scientists affix their
names.
Much of our discussion in
volved a search for the mean
ing of the Soviet slogans
peaceful co-existerce" and
complete and universal dis
armament" In the Soviet view,
peaceful co-existence" forbids
nuclear warfare but encourages
wars of liberation" such as
the Castro revolt in Cuba is
deemed to be-or tie war in
Laos.
Margaret Mead told the
Soviets they must learn to ex-
plain co-existence in ways we
can understand. and ways to
which we can agree, and that
they needed a new vocabulary.
We. on the other hand. must
learn to explain satisfactorily

BERLIN, Dec. 7 (AP) First
units of an American battle
group rolled safely into West
Berlin today after the Com
munists voiced a new threat
against use of the highway
lifeline from West Germany.
The l10-mile ride down the
autobahn came after Com
munist East Germany declared
free movements of United
States NATO troops along the
highway had never been guar
anteed by the East Germans
or the Russians.
United States officials in

troops moving to Berlin are
definitely under United States

through East Germany.
Soviet guards checked the
company on the road near
Marienborn, just inside the
Iron Curtain border of West
Germany. Another Soviet de-
tachment checked them out at
Babelsberg on the edge of West
Berlin.
On the way to Berlin, the
eastbound convoy passed a
small group of vehicles from
the lst Battle Group, 18th In
fantry, carrying men westward.
This group. headed for Kassel,
arrived in West Germany after
what its commander called an
uneventful trip.
A traveller on the autobahn
reported the est-bound Amer
ican convoy had been followed
by a Soviet car. He said also
two helicopters were patrolling
the road at a height of 400
to 500 feet.
The deputy commander of
the Berlin-bound troops. 1t.
Col. William J. Herman of

Capt. Keeley's company rode
