U. S. Disarmament Chief Optimistic

By t*HIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign New# Analyst When the United States, the Soviet Union and Britain initialled the partial nuclear test ban treaty ih MbscoW lafet JUly 25, they still were a long way from the general and complete disarmament which all three declared to be their goal. As k matter of fact, it left intact the huge nuclear arsenals built up both by the United States and the Soviet Union, and, if it had significance it primarily was one of hope. Generates Hope - “For 18 years,” Secretary of State Dean Rusk told the Senate, “we have held the Communist drive in check largely by the deterrent force of our military strength. "... But if the promise of this treaty can be realized, if we can now take even this one step along a new course, then frail and fearful mankind may find another step and another until confidence replaces terror and hope takes over from despair.” The hope generated by the Moscow agreement in a world tired of cold war persisted last Jan. 21 when the 17-nation disarmament conference resumed deliberations in Geneva. United Nations Secretary General Thant has declared that both U.S. and Soviet policy is shaped by “an obsession with the past” — the United States by Pearl Harbor, and the Soviet Union by 1919 when the Western Allies attacked the new Bolshevik state.

turned to Washington in optimistic mood. He believed substantial progress would be made this year on slowing the arms race. He believed the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. could agree to a halt in the manufacture of fissionable materials for nuclear weapons and to a freeze on nuclear weapons. Rusk has suggested the possibility of agreement on measures to prevent surprise attack.

High School Juniors Take Merit Tests A total of 37 of 42 Decatur high school students took the national merit scholarship qualification test Tuesday despite heavy snows, and 18 Monmouth juniors and three rural Decatur juniors will complete the test today, Dean T. Dorwin, North Adams guidance director, said today. . Dorwin and Mrs. Dorothy Schnepf will supervise the tests again today. The tests are closely supervised and strict, unvarying rules apply. Special permission had to be obtained to reschedule some of the tests today. Dorwin stated that about 30% of the Decatur juniors and 35% of the Monmouth juniors took the test. The tests are a valuable aid in counseling for post-high school work and education, and the higher scores are used for many national scholarship awards to hundreds of colleges.
