Architec turdl Firm
Appoints New
Associate
The office of William
Sigal and Associates, Archi-
tects, Engineers, and Plan
ners, today announced the
appointment of Robert 7.
Eskridge as, an Associate Of
the firm. Mr.. Eskridge has
just moved to Puerto Rico
from Boston, Massachu-
sets, where for eight years
he has been a member of
the firm "The Architects
Collaborative", directed by
the internationally known
DIR. Walter Gropius. Mr..

On December 30th Of
last year, the residents OF
st. Thomas and st. John
began enjoying the benefits
of the new dial system. Tel
ephone subscribers in St.
Croix have been anxiously
awaiting their turn to be
given the swift efficient
service.
According to Mr.. E. Stan
ley Seward, Executive Vice
President of the telephone
company, after the ST.
Croix cutover there will be
approximately $3.50 tele-
phones in operation on the
three islands. This is almost
half again the number of
telephones in use when the
corporation was granted the
franchise by the Govern
ment at the end of 1859. It
is expected that by the end
of 1864 the growth will ex-
coed 10000.
AS is the case in St. Tho
mas and st. John, telephone
subscribers on st. Crolx
will be using seven-digit
numbers, except in making
overseas, service or emer-
gency calls, when only
three digits need be dialed.
Inter-island calls will go
through the overseas ope-
rators, but calls between
Christiansted and Frederik-
sted will be dialed direct.
All telephones in the Chris
tiansted area have been as

Students in Cuba
To Lose Passports

q. DO you feel that the re-
Taxation of cold war tensions
resulting from the test-ban
treaty might in any way affect
relations between Cuba and the
United States. and do you
think that the United States
might take any action against
the students who are now in
Cuba2
A. :. ] don't know what
the next steps in regard to
relaxation Of tensions are. We
can't predict 1t. -. I think we
should maintain our strength
I don't think we should cut ouI
defense budgets. I think we
should pursue. however. the
next step to see II we car

tions)--we don't have that vel

Cooperation
With France

q. Is the United States con-
sidering giving France some Of
its nuclear weapons secrets in
order that that nation might
stop testing?
A. Well, France is o nuclear
power and the United States
and Britain have been in touch
with the French authorities on
this matter of how the inter-
ests Of France, Britain and the
United States can best be pro-
tected In a test ban. At the
present time, as you know, over
q period of time, we have Of
fered assistance to France on
other occasions. After Nassau,
we offered assistance to France
on the Polaris program. That
offer was rejected.
In Germany. there are French
aircraft with U. S. nuclear wea-
ponS, which are ready for the
defense of the alliance which
the United States has made
available for sale, or tankers
which could be used by the
French military force, air tank
ers. So that we have been in
some cooperation in this area.
We have discussed - we have
made some suggestions recently
as to how that cooperation
could be more satisfactorily de-
veloped If there were a test
ban, but we have received no
response from the French gov
eminent. other than the re-
marks of Gen. de Gaulle at his
press conference.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-08-02

vantage in this area. Have our
scientific and technical intelli-
gence people examined those
tests, and can you give US your
estimate of where we stand rel
atively? a
A. don't think that the
problem is solved by the ex-
plosion of a large metagoa
bomb. The problem is really
one, as you know, of discrimi-
nation, of being able to pre-
vent saturation, Of having TO
protect many targets while
the adversary can select a few.
The problem would not be
solved If the United States ex-
ploded a 100-megaton bomb.
The reason that the United
States did not explode or de-
velop is because we had no
military use for it. When yoti
talk about 100 megatons. which
we do rather casually, we
should realize what we are
talking about. What Is the
blast effect? Would 80 three
ton megaton bombs do more
damage? In fact, they do, be-
cause the effect of q 100-me-
gaton as opposed to a So
megaton does not move UP In
arithmetical progression. y
So we have felt that lesser
yields, combined with the
means of delivery, provided
the United States with the
greater security. The problem
of developing a defense against
a missile is beyond us and bee
yond the Soviets technically
and I think many who work
in it feel that perhaps it can
never be successfully accom-
plished, because the whole,
problem, as you know, is 70
have 100 objects flying through
the air at thousands OF miles
an hour, to be able to pick
them out. and If you can do
that there is an advantage, 1t
still seems to me, to the offense,
because they can pour in 200
or 800. Therefore, the problem
is not the size of the bomb,
but, rather, the problem Of dis
elimination and the problem o.
selectivity, targeting and all the
rest. -
On those matters we can.
continue to work, but ! must
say those who work the longest
are not particularly optimistic
that q scientific breakthrough
can be made, and polluting The
atmosphere by further tests viii
not materially advance our
security.

Will Stand Firm
On Rights Policies

q. There are indications late
ly that your policies on civil
rights are costing you heavily
in political prestige and popu-
larity. Would you comment on
that. and would you tell us
whether civil rights are worth
an election?
A. Well. ! assume what you
say is probably right. On the
other hand, this is @ national
crisis Of great proportions.
am confident that whoever was
President would meet his re-
sponsibilities. Crises come In
different forms. I dent thing
anyone would have anticipated
the exact form Of this parti-

tied test-ban agreement. and
we should realize it Is an i'm
portant step but only q first
step.
Now, secondly, our policy ]
described very clearly in re-
CARDS to Cuba at the last press
conference.
Thirdly, in regard to the
students. their passports are
going to be lifted when they
come back here. Some Of the
leadership. it seems to me. are
definitely Communists. The
journey was paid for in cash
by the Cuban government.
Some of the students may be
just young men and women
who are interested in broaden
ing their horizons. But I think
that they should have some
concern for the security and
foreign policy detectives Of the
United States.
In any case, their passports
will be lifted. which may dis
courage their travel for a
period. and, in addition, other
steps may be considered in
regard to q few who are not
students but who are Com
Inunists.

cular crisis. I My Judgment
is that both political parties
finally will come to the same
conclusion, and that is that
every effort should be made to
protect the rights of ell of our
citizens, and advance their
right to equality Of opportu-
nifty. Education. jobs. security,
right to move freely about our
country, right to make per-
sonal choices-and these are
matters which it seems to me
are very essential, very deSir-
able, and we just have to wait
and see what political effect
they have. But I think the
position of the Government,
the administration, is well
known. and I expect it will
continue to follow the same
course 1t has followed in the
past.
Q. When Lord Hailsham re-
turned to London, he said Pre-
mier Khrushchev had express
ed an interest in a summit
meeting in the fall. I wonder,
sir, If you could give us your
view on the issue Of the sum-
NIT, now that a test ban treaty
has been initiated.
A. No, I have not heard any
discussion Of the summit, and ]
don't really see at the present
time it would serve q useful
purpose. 1t seems to me that we
have been able to conduct the
negotiations. :. Through skill
ed negotiators, and that is
really the best way unless
there is an overwhelming
crisis. :.
q. Representative Clayton
Powell has said that Negroes
should retain the leadership OF
the civil rights movement IN
their own hands, excluding for
the most part, whites. This has
upset a great many people, both
Negroes and whites, who sup
port the civil rights movement.
Can you give us your view Of
this position held by Mr..
Powell?
A. Well, / haven't seen the
statement that you attribute to
him, so it is hard to comment
on it. / would think that this
is a matter, of course-when
you are talking about 10 per
cent of the population, 1t is a
matter which affects Negroes
and whites and the relations
between them are what are at
issue, not the relationship be-
tween the Negro communities
themselves, but the relation
ship between Negroes and
whites. Therefore, 1t requires
the work Of both Negroes and
whites.

clear test ban treaty. Does this

carefully considered. I think it
provides protection for the
security interests Of the United
States and gives us some hope.
Maybe that hope won't be real

towards a more peaceful
world. In my Judgment, after
the Senators-and they have
a right to meet their respon-
sibilities in a careful way
they have to study the matter
carefully. They should hear
from the Chiefs Of Staff, the
Defense Secretary, the State
Department and the rest, and
make their judgment.
I believe they will vote Eyes. "

icy decision on whether we will
continue testing nuclear weap-
ons underground as the treaty
permits us to do?
A. Yes. Yes, we will.

NATO Discussion
On Non-Aggression

q. Gen. de Gaulle has pledged
that France will not commit
aggression against any other
country. and he says that there
fore there is no purpose In a
non-aggression agreement. Is it
possible, in view Of his attitude,
to proceed with other NATO
allies now, to see If q nom
aggression pledge or agreement
or pact can be achieved with
the Russians and the Warsaw
Pact powers?
A. Well, as I understood It,
Gen. de Gaulle has made a
non-aggression pledge himself.
1t would seem to me that it
might be advisable for the
other members of NATO TO
meet together and discuss the
matter. One Of our interests In
a non-aggression q gree m n t
would be greater security for
Berlin. If everyone is going to
unilaterally make a nom
aggression agreement. then you
have a non-aggression pact in
a sense, and it does not seem
to me that our interests have
been adequately recognized.
So I would feel. personally,
for the United States, that we
should consult with our other
allies. We should, as Gov.
Hartman agreed to do, take
UP the matter Of a non-aggres-
sion pact with our allies, con-
slider their interests and our
own interests, consider, as I
said, for one matter, Berlin,
and then go back to the Soviet
Union and see what the sit
uation look like. That is the
procedure we are going to fol-
low. Every country, of course,
Is free to follow its own.

along the Indian-T ibetan bor-
der, do you believe that the
situation has taken a turn for
the worse in the Far East. If
so what should we do about 1t?
A. The potentiality is there
for q turn for the worse. I don't
think we can make a Judgment
as to what events will bring us.
The potential for trouble
is always there, and the same
is true in other parts of asia,
but we have lived with a good
deal Of danger in Asia for q
number of years. We have made
quite clear, I think, our COM
mitments, and we intend to
carry out those commitments,
and we would hope that there
would not be a flare-up which
would bring a direct conflict. !.

Bi0cioI Groups
Working Hard

Q. It has seemed as the sum-
mer has progressed. the vigor
or some Of the fever has gone
out of the Negro demonstrations
that we had around the coun-
try earlier in the year. I won
der in short If you could
assess the demonstrations that
we have had with the spring.
and what we have accom-
plished.
A. I think it is partly be-
cause an awful lot of work is
being done in the local COM
munities by biracial groups, by
responsible officials. and +.
partly because I think that the
Negroes are aware that the
Congress is considering the le-
gal remedies for some Of the
difficulties that they face.
1t is partly because I think
the responsible Negro leader
ship, I think, realizes that this
is q long drawn-out task to
bring about, which requires
jobs, which requires education
and all Of the rest, and a quick
demonstration in the street is
not the immediate answer.
But m erely because the
demonstrations have subsidized
does not mean that we
should go to sleep and forget
the problem, because that is no
solution. So I think that it may
be a good thing that the DEM
onstrations, particularly in
their extreme form. are sub
siding. I think in some cases
they were becoming self-de-
feating But I would hope
that If there Is a period of
quiet, we would use 1t and not
merely regard it as an end Of
the effort.
Q. Senator Dirksen also ex-
pressed concern about Cuba,
and he said that Cuba could
become a party to the Mos
COW treaty. and then could test
nuclear weapons in the caves
down in Cuba. Do you share
Senator Dirksen's Germ
about such a matter?
A. If you could get a COM
plete, comprehensive test ban
treaty, which we still are for,
which I think we ought to
pursue, then you would have
an ending to all prospects. But
to say that the test-ban treaty
itself is an encouragement to
develop nuclear weapons. pre-
sents the problem in a way
which does not add materially,
