Britain Joins
Drive to Get
Attest Talks

LONDON, Aug. IL (AP).-
Britain intends to Join the
United States in q make-or-
break bid to revive the dead
locked talks with the Soviet
Union on banning nuclear
weapon tests.
Government officials, report
ing this tonight, said Britain's
ambassador designate to Wash
ington. David OrmSby- Gore,
will follow American pegotiator
Arthur H. Dean to Geneva
August "a for a meeting with
the Russians.
The British American step is
designed partly to demonstrate
to the United Nations that it
is Moscow, rather than Wash
ington or London, which is
blocking progress toward a test
ban. The two Allied nuclear
powers already have asked.
United Nations Secretary Gen
eral Dag Hammarskjold to Put
the issue before the General
Assembly 18th session begin
ming September 10.
Mr.. Dean and Mr.. Ormsby-
Gore can have little hope their
mission will succeed. Only
yesterday the Soviet Union &C.
cused the Americans Of wanting
a pact so full Of loopholes it
would allow testing to continue.
A note to Washington also
charged the British-American
draft pact will permit anti
Soviet spying.

back to the land for farmers
or grange meetings.

Foreign Policy Factor
An equally significant change
is that Mr.. Freeman, unlike Mr..

an arm of foreign policy. He
broods constantly over the RI
diculous situation of the huge

he says. Waste is the greatest
sin. We must not dump some
thing to get rid Of it. No Won

pluses complain it disrupts
their market. We must harness
our capacity; we must produce
