RULER DISCIPLINE

One way Of dealing with
a troublemaker in school
would be to "apply a ruler
to the palm Of the hand or
some other part Of the
body" DR.. Carl F. Hansen
said yesterday.
DR.. Hansen, the superin-
tendent Of Washington's
public school system, gave
that definition as one
means Of corporal punish
ment that might be used.
He said such action
should be taken with the
principals approval and
presence - and possibly
only with the permission Of
parents.

NucIear NATO
Plan Advances
In Talks Here
Proposed Steps
To Be Presented to
Council in Paris

The United States and Brit.
ain repeatedly reached genera
agreement today on steps that
might be taken by the allied
powers to create a nuclear force
command under NATO.
The State Department an
nounced completion of talks
between the two governments
which started here a week ago
Results will now go before the
North Atlantic Treaty Organi-
cation Council in Paris.
Match Contributions
The British government
agreed at Nassau on December
81 to assign a nuclear- armed
bomber force to NATO with the
United States to put in a match
ing force. The British have now
been told that the initial United
States contribution will be in
the form of Polaris submarines
rather than bombers.
The talks here were conduct
ed by Assistant Secretary of
State William r. Tyler and
Denis Greenhill of the British
Embassy.
1t is understood that both
governments feel the NATO nu-
clear forces should be placed
under command of the Supreme
Allied Commander in Europe
Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer, a
United States officer. 1t is ex-
pected that a deputy for nu-
clear forces will be designated
to serve under him.
Mediterranean Force
The United States is putting
three Polaris submarines into
the Mediterranean next month.
A fleet Of the nuclear subs is
already on duty in the Allan
tic. Assignments to NATO could
be made from both the Medi-
terranean and Atlantic forces.
A third element of the NATO
force is now being negotiated in
Europe by President Kennedy's
special envoy, Ambassador Liv-
ingston T. Merchant. This ele-
ment could be o multinational
force armed with Polaris mis-
siles based on surface ships and
equipped with United States
supplied nuclear warheads.

The essential point about
school discipline, he stressed
in an interview, is that 1.-THE

That, he said, means a sword

proposed Wednesday.
DR.. Hansen told The Star

Of negative, punitive steps to

Negotiotor
In Geneva
Flies Home

GENEVA, Feb. % (AP).-
The Soviet Unions chief dis
armament negotiator flew TO
Moscow today amid reports the
Kremlin wants to generate a
summit conference by entang-
ling nuclear test ban talks here
with the cold war issues Of
Cuba and Berlin.
First Deputy Foreign Min
lister Vastly v. Kuznetsov pre-
sumably will consult with
Premier Khrushchev and other
Soviet officials. There was no
word from SOVIET sources here
on when Mr.. Kuznetsov viii be
back.
United States Negotiator
William c. Foster left the con-
ference for Washington con-
situations earlier in the week
and is due back tomorrow.
Diplomatic sources said he had
hoped to get Mr.. Kuznetsov
committed to real negotiations
on a treaty for banning nuclear
testing.
Mr.. Kuznetsov's departure,
too, comes as Britain's new
negotiator, Sir Paul Mason,
prepared to make his first
speech to the conference on
Monday. Sir Paul succeeds Sir
Michael Wright, who has
retired.
Hard Line Followed
Britain and the United States
have been working closely in
the negotiations.
Mr.. Kuznetsov's departure
created disappointment but no
surprise in Washington. 1t was
viewed there as part Of the
declining pattern in the nego-
tiations.
Mr.. Kuznetsov has been fol.
lowing q hard line in the talks.
He refused yesterday to back
down from the Soviet stand for
a limit Of two or three on-site
inspections on Soviet soil
against cheating on nuclear
TESTS. He even threatened to
withdraw that Soviet offer.
The United States proposed
8 to 10 inspections but is will
ing to reduce that by one II the
Soviets will negotiate the me-
chanics.
Bargaining Move Seen
The Soviet position appeared
to Western sources as an at
tempt to tighten the deadlock
TO force bargaining at a higher
level-between President Ken
nedy and Mr.. Khrushchev-on
a wide range Of cold war prob
lens.
These diplomats said that Mr..
Khrushchev. for example. may
insist on getting some Of his
demands in Berlin before ac-
cepting the Vests proposals for
enforcing an nuclear test ban.
He also may want TO use this
conference as a counterweight
10 resist the thrust OF American
policy toward Cuba, the diplo-
mats said.
Another possible explanation
is that Mr.. Khrushchev was
merely killing time until he re-
ceived new instructions from
the Kremlin. This theory has
one important weakness. The
Russians during the past week
have lost ground In a propa-
ganda sense in the conference,
diplomats said.
Mr.. Kuznetsoy's refusal TO
negotiate in detail on a test
ban treaty has annoyed the
eight non nuclear. neutral
countries represented around
the table. The Russians have
made a big effort to WOO the
eight-BraZil. Burma. Ethiopia.
India. Mexico, Nigeria. Sweden
and the United Arab Republic.
But after Mr.. Kuznetsov made
his stand clear yesterday. one
neutral was reported to have
told a Western delegate: The
Russian statement was a slap
In the face Of neutral opinion"

AT 'leaSt two high schools

Committee.
Mr.. Mcmillan said he has re-

was made at a recent Capitol
Hill conference on the Dis
trict's crime problems.
Meanwhile, William H. Press,
executive vice. president of
the Metropolitan Washington
Board of Trade, said that the
board has received inquiries
about the crime situation here
from officials Of schools and
also organizations considering
holding conventions here.
Seriousness Questioned

fortunately, we have had a few
problems, we don't think this
is situation serious enough
to warrant their canceling OUT

He said that he personally
does not know of any schools
which have Cancelled tours OF
Washington.
The second of the crime
study sessions, which are being
held by members of the House
and Senate District Commit
tees, is scheduled for tomorrow.
At the first conference, Mr..
Mcmillan noted that crimes
committed in Washington re-
ceive widespread publicity. The
parents of students who are
looking forward to a sight
seeing trip here are, of course,
concerned over this tide of
assaults and robberies, he said.
Bible Cites Pattern
Approximately seven million
children come here annually. |
I have already received two
letters from schools saying
they had Cancelled their trips

Mr.. Mcmillan said.
In a statement that dove
tailed with Mr.. McMillan's re-
port on the school tour can
cellations, Chairman Bible Of
the Senate District Committee
called attention to the crime
problem.
Each year as the spring
months come on, the pattern
has been that a rash of partic-
ularly heinous crimes strikes
the District and its people," he
said.
The Nevada Democrat added
that:
Possibly all of us together
can take steps to cut down
criminal violence not only in
the spring and summer months
but the year around"
No Easy Answers
The main goal of the confer
ences, which are being attended
by officials concerned with the
problem, is to reach agreement
on any new legislation needed
to combat crime. The commit

LEGAL AID
Counsel for
the poor and troubled
BY 7. w. TIRANA

TINE WAITING room of the Legal Aid So
ciety at sos street NV, though filled
with people, is always hushed The people sit
around the wall in STRAIGHTFORWARD chairs,
watching one another warily, their looks re-
flecting the troubles that brought them there
They wait as long as two hours to see one
of the volunteer lawyers, and they would wait
longer if they had to; the Legal Aid Society is
the principal place they can turn to for help in
just about any manner of civil case.
Legal Aid each year takes care of about
1000 people who are unable to settle their
problems themselves and too impoverished
to hire lawyer. A board of trustees, paid
staff director, a few secretaries and recep
tiOniStS, and 80 lawyers who give up morning
or an afternoon every week make up the So
ciety. 1t runs on an annual budget of $4,000
all of it from private contributions. This year,
81, 289 comes from the United Givers Fund.
Most of the cases Legal Aid takes on are
caused by human fOibleS. They could happen
tojuSt about anyone and can be settled quickly
Others, however require special handling and
lot of time.
For example, Legal Aid attorney under
took to defend Bolivian airline pilot who was
the sole survivor of a crash here several years
ago between his plane and a commercial air.
liner. The result was 39-day trial which took
two weeks of preparation. If he hadn't been
pennilesS and eligible for Legal Aid, the pilot
would have been charged minimum of s., $50
in legal fees. He was held free from negligence.
More typical are four cases heard in one
hour recently by Stephen Bienieck, one of the
attorneys:
. A woman, 46, complained that the man
she had been living with four years ran off and
married someone else the day after she told
him she was pregnant She has two children
and is still married to someone else. 81 think
you should help me" she said. soon I'll have
to stop work"
Mr.. Bienieck wrote letter to the man, ask
ing him to come to the Legal Aid office to dis
cuSS support arrangement for the child. If he
failed to show up, Mr. Bienieck added, a COM
plant would be filed with Juvenile Court.
. A man who had sprained his back was
afraid he would lose his job. Mr.. Bienieck
made an appointment for him to see lawyer
specializing in wOrkmens compensation cases.
. A mother asked whether her sons i'm
pending marriage could be stopped. Her son,
AZ, plans to marry woman with three children
and two grandchildren. The mother said he is
mentally deficient, although he holds a job as
a plumbers helper. II love my boy dearly"
