These ideas may be illus
trated with several pieces
from our own collection. The
little box Of inlaid mahogany
which my husband found"
in Philadelphia and quite lit
orally salvaged from immi-
nent destruction is a delight
to the eye. Beautifully made,
elegant in shape, it has in
laid, delicate ribbons of in
lay, quarter-ovals and a
splendid shell on the inside.
Inside too, is an old hand
written label which reads:

this for me in 1887. A.

the date of the object. Re-
search may lead to greater
knowledge of its cabinet
maker, who was possibly
American.
The Empire bureau-desk
which my husband gave me
as an engagement present
has also satisfied many
needs. It was my first an
tique (for which I have the
appropriate sentimental af-
fection), it seemed appropri-
ate to my Winterthur studies
Of Empire cabinetmaking
which were nearing compile
ton, and stimulated further
research (Which went on to
the Red Room at the White

we have since found other

Senator Engle, Democrat of
California, today charged for
mer Secretary of the Treasury
George NJ. Humphrey and his
associates in a multi million
dollar Stockpile nickel deal with
deliberate Misrepresentation"
and contradictory testimony.

numerous passages from Mr..

Senator Engle ccntended that
these records established that
Mr.. Humphrey and the Hanna
mining complex he formerly
headed engaged in deliberate
Misrepresentation" to over
charge the Government on both

about the complete dismantling
of the Western defense system,
the reasons for the existence of
which are so well known"
Mr.. Dean said that if the So
Wet plan were to be implement
ed the world would look some
thing like this at the end of the
first stage:
All means Of delivering nu-
clear weapons-ShipS. planes,
missiles, rockets and others
would have been eliminated
completely, along with facilities
to produce them.
All joint military installa-
tions of the United States and
its allies would have been de-
stroyed. and all forces of the
United States and its allies
would have been withdrawn to
their own territories.
"On the other hand, the
Soviet Union would be left in
obviously advantageous posi-
ton.
Her large remaining forces
centrally located in the heart
land of Europe and Asia, with
secure internal lines of COM
munication and under single
command-could still be de-
ployed effectively against the
rest of the EuraSian land mass.
"They would represent the
overwhelming national conven-
tional force in Europe.
For the free world this
would mean defeat. For the
Soviet Union it would mean
victory"
In Washington, authoritative
United States sources said last
night the United States is about
ready to propose an atmos-
pheric test ban treaty. The
sources said the United States
still would prefer a compre-
hensive nuclear test ban, out
lawing underground explosions
as well as all others.
But it appears increasingly
doubtful that the Soviets will
agree to the on-site inspection
safeguards the West demands
as part Of such an agreement.
There have been indications
recently that the West was
seriously considering the more
limited ban against atomic
shots in the atmosphere that
has been gaining favor among
the neutrals at Geneva as a
possible first-step treaty in the
absence of accord on more
comprehensive treaty.

Missing Boy
Found Safe
In State Park

ISLIP, N. Y. Aug. % (AP).
- A 3-year-old boy, Stephen
Papol. who disappeared in a
Long Island State park Sunday
was found today-whimpering
but alive and able to smile.
The sound Of crying led
searchers to the boy but he
managed the smile before being
whisked off to Southside Hos
pital in Bay Shore.
The hospital reported he had
suffered scratches and insect
bites but that his condition
was fairly good.
Police had considered the
possibility that Stephen was
kidnapped by a childless love-
starved woman. but Police
Capt. Frank McCannin said
there was nothing to indicate
the boy had been anywhere
than in Hecksher State Park.
The boy was found in bushes
by a parking lot, near the point
where he disappeared, by Mr..
and Mrs. Raymond Finger Of
Islip Terrace. Mr.. Finger, a
sergeant in the Islip auxiliary
police, and his wife were among
hundreds searching for the boy.
Mrs. Finger said she heard
the boys cries and that her
husband ran to the child.
Lou Grasso, one of the
searchers, said the thickness of
brush in the area where the
boy was found may have ac-
counted for the failure Of the
search parties to find him
earlier. The boy could have
been asleep, he said, when the
searchers passed by.

GENEVA, Aug. % (AP).-
The IL nation disarmament
conference agreed today to re-
cess from September 8 to No
vember IL while its deadlock
is referred back to the United
Nations General Assembly.
The United States and the
Soviet Union cochairmen of the
conference, agreed yesterday on
the recess.
The meeting also instructed
chief United States Delegate
Arthur H. Dean and Soviet First
Deputy Foreign Minister Vastly
v. KuZnetsov to consult during
the recess about another date
for resumption of the talks, de-
pending on developments in the
U. N. Assembly meeting or else
where.
Recess a Compromise
The recess date was a COM
promise between the recon-
mendation of the cochairmen
and desires Of Sweden, India
and Canada.
MIR. Dean and Mr.. Kuznetsov
suggested September / as the
most convenient date for in
terrupting the talks. Sweden'S
c. H. Won Platen proposed mid
September. India's Arthur Lall
favored September 20. Gen.
E. L. M. Burns of Canada op-
posed any recess at all. He re-
luctantly agreed after all other
delegations had accepted the
compromise date.
The September 8 recess was
proposed by Brazil's Augusta
de Araujo Castro, who Sug-
gested the three nuclear pow
ers use the time to renew their
test ban discussions in the
American British Soviet sub
committee which stopped meet
ing two weeks ago.
Mr.. Dean pointed out to the
conference that East-West diff
ferences on substantial matters
Of disarmament and the nu-
clear test ban were too great
to be overcome before the U. N.
General Assembly meets Sep
temher 18.
No Progress Made
The Geneva conference is to
report back to that meeting. 1t
will report no progress has been
made.
Mr.. Dean reiterated today
that the United States cannot
accept a Soviet proposal for the
destruction of all means of de-
livering nuclear weapons and
the elimination of foreign bases
in the first stage Of three pro-
posed stages of world disarma-
ment.
