Eye Experiments
Hint Way Brain
Sees the Lioht

A woman scientist today
gave what she called "the
closest approximation yet avail
able" of how light reaching
the eye is sent as a message
to the brain.
The scientist, DR.. Ruth Hub
bard of the Harvard Univer-
sity Biological Laboratories, re-
ported at an opening-day SEES
sion of the three-day annual
meeting of the Biophysical So
ciety at the Sheraton Park
Hotel.
She said recent experiments
give an approximation, not a
full explanation, of the mes
sage transmission.
The experiments, she said,
show that light striking the
eye Strengthens out twisted
molecules of a form of vitamin
A. This change, she said, causes
a number of chemical reac-
tions which trigger a nervous
impulse that is communicated
to the brain.
About $50 scientists are ex-
pected to register by the end
of the meeting.

Sedition Coveroge
Overseas Asked
By the Associated Press


The Justice Departm e n t
asked Congress yesterday to
make Federal sedition laws
apply to Americans overseas.
Acting Attorney General By
ron R. White recommended
passage of such legislation in
letters to Vice President john
son and House Speaker Nc
Cormack. He said it would
strengthen the security of
our Nation"
The present sedition statute
prohibits attempts to cause
mutiny or disloyalty among
members of the armed forces,
but a clause limits the law to
the United States or its admi-
rally or maritime jurisdiction.
Mr.. White said elimination of
this restriction would be in
line with a change in the espi-
onage laws enacted last year.

SUMMIT
President Insists
On Ministers Talks

ence be opened at the foreign
ministers level.
Mr.. Khrushchev countered
last Sunday with a proposal
to raise the level to heads of
government.
Seek Progress First
The United States and Brit
ain Immediately made clear
they are willing to have a
summit conference on general
disarmament in the spring, but
not before they are assured
the government heads could
ratify meaningful progress.
The General Assembly asked
for a progress report on the
disarmament talks by June /.
The thought here is that heads
OF government might convene
in Geneva, perhaps in May, to
ratify agreements on disarma-
ment reached at lower-ievel
preliminary negotiations, or
resolve remaining differences,
If there is a prospect for a first
step in the disarmament field.
In Moscow, there were re-
ports Mr.. Khrushchev might go
to Geneva March IA to head his
delegation regardless of whether
Mr.. Kennedy, Mr.. Macmillan or
the heads of the Is other gov
ernments attend.
West Sounded Out
1t was presumed that the
other four Communist leaders.
from Poland, Czechoslovakia,
Romania and Bulgaria would
join the Soviet Premier if he
decided to open the conference.
The United States was still
sounding out the other IL non
Communist powers on their
attitude. The other four NATO
powers on the disarmament
committee are Britain, France,
Italy and Canada.
The eight remaining men,
bers are Brazil, Mexico, Nigeria,
Ethiopia, India, Burma, Sweden
and the United Arab Republic.
Last Wednesday, Mr.. Ken
nedy and Mr.. Macmillan called
on Mr.. Khrushchev to Join
them in "a supreme effort" to
reverse the mounting arms
race.
They proposed that the three
world leaders agree before the
March IA Geneva talks start to
keep their representatives at the
disarmament conference table
until concrete results have
been achieved, however long
this may take"
Other Policy Topics
On other foreign policy mat
tiers the President:
l. Denied his brother, Attor-
ney General Robert Kennedy,
would go to the Soviet Union
on his current trip abroad.
2. Expressed the hope that
India and Pakistan could make
some progress on their Kashmir
dispute among themselves,
which is evidently what they
prefer at this time" He said
India had turned down the
suggestion that Eugene Black,
World Bank president mediate
the dispute. Direct talks, the
President said, hopefully could
begin at the end of midas
election later this month.
3. Told a reporter for the
Soviet newspaper Izvestia he is
very interested in any ex-
changes of visits with the Soviet
Union, but Congress itself
should judge whether the ma
tional interest would be served
by representatives of Congress
visiting the Soviet Parliament.

disarmament conference he
opened at the highly respon-
sible level of our Foreign Min
isters.' He also advanced again
the suggestion that Foreign
Ministers Of the Soviet Union,
Britain and the United States
meet in advance of the March
IA conference ito concert plans
for its work"
Stresses Inspection
At one point in his press
conference the President said
that any prospective disarma-
ment agreement representing
enough progress to attract him
should provide for effective
inspection"
1t was not clear whether he
was insisting on some measure
of effective inspection before he
could attend a heads-of gov
eminent meeting.
Red China, the President
conceded, would have to be in
cluded in any general disarma-
ment agreement.
There is really no use in
having an inspection system
agreed upon between, say, the
Soviet Union and the United
States and some other coun-
tries" the President declared,
land then have another coun-
try carry on an intensive arma-
ment preparation"
There are "a good deal of
hurdles to overcome before we
come to this particular ques-
tion," he added. 1T is a ques-
ton which waits for us before
the end of the road is reached
and it would be a very difficult
one, but one that we certainly
should have in mind as we
start on this conference"
Asks World Pact
He told a questioner, II would
think there would have to be
an agreement that would cover
the world"
The President said he did
not know the attitude of
neutral countries to the Soviet
proposal for a summit con-
ference on disarmament.
Mr.. Kennedy left open the
possibility that the United
States and Britain will try to
revise their draft treaty to
ban nuclear weapons tests TO
add provisions Tor inspection
of secret preparations for test
ing.
At present, however, he in
dicated the. United States is
still ready to sign the draft
treaty as it stands. 1t pro-
vides for inspection and con-
troll only of actual tests, not
preparations for them.
Some steps toward general
disarmament might not require
international inspection. Among
these is the proposal that nu-
clear powers agree not to pro-
vide nuclear weapons or nuclear
information to n-nuclear
powers. At the same time, non
nuclear powers would be asked
to agree not to accept nuclear
weapons or nuclear information.
The President also confirmed
that the West will not resume
atmospheric testing prior to the
Geneva conference.
~ Mr.. Kennedy said his atti-
',tude toward summit diplomacy
had not changed. "a summit is
/. not a place to carry on negotia-
tons which involve Details" he
said.
\ THE summit should be a
place where perhaps agree
tnents which have been
achieved at a lower level could
be finally, officially approved
by heads of governments, or if
there was a major crisis which
threatened to involve us all in
a. war, there might be need
for a summit. But my general
view would be that we should
climb to the summit after care
ful preparation at the lower
levels"
The rapid exchange of sum-
mit-level correspondence began
just a week ago with a proposal
by Mr.. Kennedy and Mr.. Mac
milan that the Geneva confer

dom of other countries and do
these things without having a
nuclear war.
Now, If someone thinks we
should have a nuclear war in
order to win," the President
added, II can inform them
that there will not be winners
of the next nuclear war, II
there is one, and this country
would suffer heavy blows.
$50 we have to proceed with
responsibility and with care in
an age where the human race
can obliterate itself.
"The objective Of this ad-
ministration, and I think the
objective of the country, is to
protect our security. keep the
peace, protect our vital in
tereSts, make it possible for
what we believe to be a system
of Government which is in &C
cordance with che basic sSpira-
lions of people everywhere to
ultimately prevail. That is our
objective and that is the one
we shall follow"
Policy Is Sought
On the specific subject of
censoring, the President was
asked if it were national policy
to delete from speeches of
military leaders such phrases
as emerge victorious" and
beat the Communists"
The President said he was
not familiar with those partic-
ular phrases and did not know
whether or not they were
deleted. The purpose of review
ing speeches is the same as he
stated a month ago, the Presi-
dent said, and that is to make
sure "the Government speaks
with one voice."
AS an example of the need
for reviews, the President re-
called that on January %, 1861,
Admiral Arleigh A. Burke, then
Chief of Naval Operations, sent
speech to the White House
to see that it was in accordance
with the policies of the new ad-
ministration.
The President said Admiral
Burke was not aware then that
negotiations were being carried
on for the release of RB-47
filters held by the Russians. This
example, the President said,
indicates clearly how desirable
it is to have speeches gone over
by those who represent the Sec
rotary of State or the Secretary
of Defense"
Cites Speech Review
Gen. Decker in his statement
for the subcommittee, said re-
views of speeches had been
helpful.
Gen. Decker said that any
comprehensive discussion OF
military matters must touch or
some aspects of foreign policy
But he e m p h ASKED that
primary responsibility for deci-
sions in this matter rests with
other agencies of the Govern
ment and not the military.
ut is therefore both proper
and desirable" the general
said. that these public utter.
ances of military men which
necessarily touch on such mat
tiers be reviewed by the desig-
mated representatives of the
Secretary of Defense and, when
appropriate, by representatives
of other responsible agencies
Most frequently, of course, this
involves the State Department
II, for one, do not object to
such review; 1 consider it help
