A-30 Geneva Parley Seeks Plan to Police A-Tests GENEVA, Nov. k (AP) .—United States, British and Soviet delegation leaders explored in a private meeting today the chances of reaching agreement on the policing of a nuclear test ban. They appeared neither optimistic nor pessimistic. During their 45-minute discussion they carefully avoided forcing each other into taking up rigid po sitions, informants said. The three powers formally opened their conference in Geneva’s Palais des Nations yesterday. Over the next few days or weeks they must deter mine whether some avenue ex ists for reconciling their con flicting views on ending atomic and hydrogen bomb explosions Informants pointed out. that in the early stage of negotia tions efforts always are made not to close off any possible bridges between the two sides. Would Expand Agreement It also was understood that the three powers already have begun working out their own plans individually on how to bring other nations—such as France and Communist China —into any test ban agreement that may be reached here. United States Ambassador James J. Wadsworth, British Minister of State David Orms by-Gore and the Soviet Union’s Semyon K. Tsarapkin attended the private meeting at the headquarters of the American delegation. American and Russian sources MARRIAGE LICENSE APPLICATIONS Under D.

THE SUNDAY STAR. WASHINGTON. D. C., NOVEMBER 2, 1958 U. N.Seen Reviving Disarmament Group UNITED NATIONS, N. Y„ Nov. 1 (AP).—i Some diplomats said today they expected agreement here Monday to revive the United Nations Disarmament Commission, inactive for more than a year They forecast that the General Assembly’s Political Com mittee that day would adopt an Indian-Yugoslav resolution to expand the 25-nation commis sion so that it would include all 81 U. N. members. The Soviet Union has boy cotted the 25-nation commis sion on grounds Communist and neutral countries are outnumbered by pro-Western countries on that body, but it has said repeatedly that it would take part in a “perma nent" 81 - nation commission. Britain and the United States long opposed such an all-inclusive body with the ar gument that it would be too unwieldy to permit effective negotiations. But Western dele gates said the two powers now were willing to go along with the idea provided there were proper safeguards against the II l I R Featured: Luxury Antique Satin in 63" or 90" length, self-lined -■bk t j for beauty and privacy.

The Indian-Yugoslav resolu tion as originally submitted October 22 would have had the Assembly decide that the com mission "shall be composed of all the members of the United Nations.” The two turned in a revised version last night saying that it would serve only “for 1959 on an ad hoc (special) basis and as a committee of the Gen eral Assembly.” Under the original draft, the body would have been under the rules of the Disarmament Commission and any member could have obtained a meeting at any time. Sneak Attack i Issue Raised i LONDON, Nov. 1 (AP).— , Russia told the United States ; today it wants “certain steps in the field of disarmament” , discussed at forthcoming East- West Geneva talks on guarding Nations against surprise at tack. Moscow radio said the Sn the drafting of practical rec ommendations on meaau»vo .or! the prevention of surprise at- ‘ tack and their combination with certain steps in the Held 1 of disarmament.” The conference has been billed as an East-West study of the practical aspects of minimizing the possibility of surprise attack. In Washington, the State De partment said it had not yet received the Soviet note, a re ply to a United States note of October 10. The United States, in agree ing last month to the Novem ber 10 date proposed by Russia for the start of the conference, said the West will be repre viet note declared the Novem ber 10 conference of technical experts "must be directed to i sented by experts from Amer ica. Britain, Prance. Canada, i Italy and perhaps others. Russia’s new note said the 1 Communist bloc will be repre sented by the Soviet Union, Po- 1 land. Czechoslovakia. Romania. Albania “and possibly other countries.” * The note did not explain what steps in disarmament Russia wanted the experts to discuss. The suggestion could prove a stumbling block at the talks. .Western officials have pictured; the conference as devoted solely j to technical problems In safe guarding nations of East and!
