Moscow Will lie Site For Biji 3 Parley MOSCOW UPI — A big three meeting expected to take place this week in Moscow may set the stage for further moves to ease the cold war and a possible summit conference, diplomatic observers said today. Secretary of State Dean Rusk and British Foreign Secretary Lord Home will represent the West at the meeting, called to sign a partial nuclear test ban treaty. No precise date has yet been set. But Rusk and Home were expected to meet with Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko sometime this week. The treaty was initialled last Thursday and has given rise to outspoken optimism that a new era in East-West relations has opened. The pact bans nuclear tests in outer space, underwater and in the air but does not include underground experiments. Diplomatic observers said Rusk and Home were expected to use their presence here, no matter how brief, to explore further measures to ease tensions. Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev has said he wants to discuss the chances of a “pact of peace" between the North Atlantic Treaty Organization NATO and the Communist Warsaw Pact countries.

Pravda Assails French, Chinese MOSCOW UPI - The Communist Party newspaper Pravdo today lumped Communist China with France as the odd men out to “wreck” the recently initialed nuclear test ban treaty. Pravda commentator Yuri Zhulov said that French plans for Pacific tests was proof of the “aggressive” nature of the BoonP irs Axis and said both nations risked “complete isolation and universal condemnation."
