Acheson Asks Pad's Approval WASHINGTON. April 27 — (UP) Secretary of State Dean Acheson today asks the senate for early ratification of the Atlantic pact wdth advance assurances that current Russian “peace feelers” wdll not sidetrack

action on the treaty.

He opens testimony on the 12nation anti- aggression pact before the Senate Foreign Rela-

tions Committee.

Administration leaders, from President Truman on down, base termed the pact the United States' best bet to avoid World War III. Acheson is expected to sound this theme today. He will be followed by a parade of top diplomatic-military spokesmen

and civilian leaders.

The pact aims to assure tne safety of the western world by serving notice that an armed attack against one nation will be regarded as an attack on all. It pledges that each participation nation will take such action as it deems necessary, including use of force, to stop an aggressor. The treaty, iigned here April 4, cannct come into effect until it is ratified by the original seven negotiating nations. For the U. 3.. that means a two-thirds vote >f the senate. Ratification ap)eared probable, but much controversy lay ahead on a corollary plan to supply pact nations with U. S. military equipment. Chairman Tom Connaliy D . Tex., of the Foreign Relations Committee said the Senate will go ahead with its consideration of the treaty "regardless of what the Russians do, or don’t do."
