Mr.. McCloy also wants the
new disarmament commission
to be able to discuss first-step
disarmament measures as well
as the complete" formula first
advanced by Soviet Premier
KhruShchev before the United
Nations two years ago.
Assembly Meets in September
No general negotiation is
likely to start before September
19, when the General Assem-
bly, convenes. The General As
sembly is expected to be in
session until December, though
general disarmament talks are
now likely to be put off until
1862.
This result is less disturbing
in Washington now than it was
before the Vienna meeting of
President Kennedy and Soviet
Premier KhruShchev at the
beginning Of June.
The Kennedy administration
came to office with the hope
of serious negotiation on dis
armament this year, but the
Berlin crisis makes serious talks
incongruous.

This would give employees a

By the Associated Press

A Brookings Institution study
reported today that the aim Of
the Soviet Union in diSarma-
ment negotiations apparently
is to disarm only the West or
to a chieye a disarmament
agreement without effective
controls.
The study said the record of
is years of disarmament ne
gotiationS demonstrates that
Russia has not yet shown a
desire to sacrifice" its system
of iron curtain secrecy in order
to obtain real disarmament.
The study was made under
Brookings sponsorship by Bern
hard G. Bechhoefer, a State
expert on disarm-
problems from 1916 to
1858. He now is in private law
practice here. The Brookings
Institution is a private organ
ization devoted to preparation
of studies in public policy mat
tiers.
Mr.. Bechhoefer said that in
spite of the discouraging re-
suits of EaSt-WeSt negotiations
on armamentS going back to
the end of World War II, the
Western powers must continue
to try for an agreement and
that someday a break

Florida Is Seeking Aid
In Settling Refugees

MIAMI, Fla, July "a (AP).-
The plans of the United States
State Department to fly 10000
Cuban refugees to Miami in
three weeks were dampened
with an edict by Fidel Castro's
regime that only two flights a
day would be permitted.
And while ways were sought
to keep the refugee flights
moving as rapidly as possible,
Florida Gov. Farris Bryant
urged immediate Federal as
sistance in resettling the refu-
gees away from South Florida.
Two flights yesterday brought
a total Of 249 refugees. Pan
American World Airways,
which has been offering one
flight daily from Havana, said
it will operate twice daily until
further notice.
An estimated 100000 Cuban
refugees are in the Greater
Miami area and the United

gee Center here has been proc
essing another $500 arrivals
each week.

Rusk Doubts
Soviet Shift
By the Associated Press

Secretary of State Rusk says
he sees no sign Of a more rea-
Sonable attitude on the part
Of the Soviets toward Berlin.
II don't believe that we can
see any changes in their posi-
tion," he said, since the aide
memoire by Soviet Premier
Khrushchev at the time of
President Kennedy's visit with
him in Vienna in June.
The aide memoire, a sum-
ming up Of the well-known
Soviet position on Berlin, in
cluded the warning that Rus
Sia will conclude a separate
peace treaty with the East Ger
mans and transfer to them the
control of access routes to Ber-
lin before the end Of this year
unless there is an EaSt-West
agreement before then on the
city.
Mr.. Rusk was interviewed
yesterday on the ABC-televi-
sion program Editors Choice. "
Mr.. Rusk was asked whether
he thought the Soviet demands
on Berlin represent a sincere
effort by the Kremlin to ease a
dangerous situation, ITO elm
mate a possible flash point for
a new war;" or just an effort to
extend the Communist empire
into a new area.
We'll, I have no doubt that
this is a genuine attempt on
their part to settle the Berlin
question on their terms" Mr..
Rusk replied, adding:
But it is not a flash point
for a future war, certainly
from the point of view Of the
West. West Berlin offers no
threat to anyone, There is
peace there. There can be
peace there. Now this is no
security hazard for the East
Germans or for the Soviet
Union. If Berlin is a focal point
Of trouble, it is because Of the
pressures coming from the
East"

Non-Contributory Retirement Pay

companies finance the retire

The Michigan report COM
mented: mot only are the new
plans largely of this nature,
but many Of the older plans
which were established origin
ally on a contributory basis
are being converted to non
contributory type. There is
little movement in the opposite
direction"
The Michigan study's con-
tention was that a non-con-
tributory system cuts down
personnel turnover, thereby
saving the Defense Depart
ment heavy administrative
costs and problems.
CS Saving Seen
1t pointed out that civil
service employees have a vested
interest in their retirement
system after five years of
service. Upon leaving the
Government at any time after
five years, the employe can
leave his contributions in and
get retired pay at age 81.
There are some suggestions
that under a non-contributory
civil service retirement system,
the vesting period could be
raised to 10 or more years,
which would help to stop turn
over and provide a saving in
personnel administrative costs.
While the civil service re-
tirement system operates on a
funded liability basis, the
military retirement system does
not. The military system oper-
ates on a pay-as-you-go annual
appropriation from Congress
and on the assumption that
Congress and the Government
will meet their obligation to
retired military personnel each
year. Under civil service re-
tirement, the employe con-
tributes 61a per cent of salary
and the Government matches
this amount.

Moscow Talks

Soviet-Afnerican talks on
general disarmament are get
ting nowhere in Moscow. 1t is
now virtually certain there will
be no serious negotiation this
year beyond the United Ma
tions General Assembly's prop
aganda battle.
John ]. McCloy, the Presi-
dents disarmament adviser, is
expected to return from Mos
COW next week end unless there
is an unexpected break in his
talks with Soviet Deputy
Foreign Minister Valerian
Zorin.
Mr.. McCloy and Mr.. Zorin
resumed talks there a week
ago after a two-week exchange
OF views in Washington last
month ended in deadlock.
United States and Russian
positions have not changed
since the two men began their
meetings in the State Depart
ment in mid-June.
Procedure Plan Sought
The United States is trying
to reach an accord on the ne
gotiating forum and the prin-
ciples which would guide the
negotiations. In these pro-
cedural talks, Mr.. McCloy is
willing to discuss the general
substance of the disarmament
plans to be negotiated but no
detailed plans.
The Soviet Union is trying to
engage the United States in a
discussion of the specifics of
disarmament, more particularly
the Soviet plan for general and
complete" disarmament in four
years.

date for opening general dis

we have no other method of

line has bookings through next

Gov. Bryant, who said Flori-
da's volunteer and public as

"are strained to the breaking
point" suggested a local-State-
Federal conference to work out
the problem.
The Governor indorsed the
