and world political security must necessarily precede disarmament. Q. What is the atmosphere at Lake Success following the deadlock between the U. 8. and Russia? A. Pessimistic, but not hopeless. It is appreciated that no program of control is possible unless both countries agree. A Soviet veto of the American atomic plan, for instance, would doom that plan to eventual failure. Q. What caused the deadlock at the secret talks in the Empire State building last week? A. Mr. Gromyko, the Russian delegate, would not agree to the

BE. C. Q. What are “mass weapons of destruction?”

A, This important question has

United Nations, Obviously, bombs and bacteriological warheads. But many observers at Lake Success wonder if some nation, weak in bomber planes, may not seek to define long-range bombers in this category and thus attempt a reduction of American air strength.

United Nations general assembly? A. Russia—and Soviet spokesmen never fail to claim credit. The more cynical observers say it was a prop-| aganda move intended to create! world opinion favorable to Russia. They argue: If Russia really was sincere, why, then, is Mr. Gromyko not more straightforward in meeting the United States? Q. What concessions has Russia made thus far toward the western, and specifically, the United States, demands for atomic control? A. At the general assembly last | autumn the U. 8S. 8. R, through) Foreign Minister Molotov, said it would accept “in principle” the atomic energy control plan for international inspection. Another major concession to western demands was its agreement—also “in principle"—that any atomic authority established under the security council would not be subject to the big power veto. Q. What concession does it refuse to make? A. Russia objects ‘to the Baruch demand that the veto must not operate in punishing nations found to be atomic criminals. Q. Has any progress been made in clarifying the Soviet interpretation of “international inspection”? A. None, thus far. This is bound to involve tedious debate.

Q. What, briefly, is the pesition iof the United States? A. The American delegation, aware that the atomic bomb threatens civilization, insists that its

atomic energy commisssion must be accepted. It is useless to proceed with conventional disarmament until atomic energy is under control.

Demands No Bypassing

If the other nations really mean what they say about wanting arms reduction, they cannot ignore the American plan for keeping atomic energy separated from conventional disarmament. The, United States demands that the rissue of atomic energy must not be bypassed. It is willing, however, to discuss any and all plans for arms reduction concurrently— provided that atomic energy is not lost or confused in the general problem. i The United States appears, in short, resolved to stand on its present policy and fight it out, no ‘matter how long it takes.
