As foreign ministers of the IS member nations gathered In NATO'S 10 Ymis Reviewed. Page A-l Washington for preliminary talks, diplomatic officials last night reported that Italy, after a year of negotiations, had ap proved the placing of interme diate range missile bases In Northern Italy. Prom these bases, a Jupiter could reach Southern Russia. The agreement, confirmed here by the Italian Embassy and expected to be formally announced in a few days, means that part of the program set up at the last North Atlantic Treaty Organization meeting had been achieved. In Decem ber, 1057, the foreign ministers agreed to build IRBM bases in the North Atlantic area. (The move is expected to strengthen the hand of Ital ian Foreign Minister Giu seppe Pella in his negotia tions at the NATO meeting.) This year’s conference, which marks the 10th anniversary of NATO, will be preceded by vital talks among foreign min isters of the United States, England. France and West Germany. Seek Master Blueprint They hope to lay out the master blueprint for negotla- 1 tions with the Soviet Union! at a foreign ministers con ference in May and a probable j summit conference in the summer. Talks will begin tomorrow with the arrival of British For eign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd. He will confer at 2:45 pm. with Acting Secretary of State Herter and French Foreign Minister Couve de Murvllle, who flew in yesterday. Foreign Minister Heinrich von Brentano of West Germany, who arrived Satur day, will join the conference at 4:45 pm.

Rain Ends Egg Rolling On White House Lawn Cancellation Comes When Eisenhowers Feel Alarm Over Children's Colds After only a few intrepid youngsters showed up, the White House called off its annual Easter egg roll today when President and Mrs. Eisenhower expreugjj alarm, that toe rain might cause colds. The Weather Bureau forecast frequent rain and tempera- i tures no higher than 47—a dismal follow-up to an Easter < Sunday with skies that smiled on thousands of worshipers and promenaders. The White House force was ready to do what it could for Other Pictures on B-l the children until the President, in touch with events in Gettys burg, decided it would be better for everyone if the show was I canceled. Not least grateful were the ' guards and groundskeepers who had anticipated a day of 12.000 |or so children and parents trudging over the south lawn with the usual messy results. “Daredevils” Turn Up Three wet but happy young sters appeared at the southeast gate ready to carry on despite the weather. They were Mar sha, Thomas and James Hud speth, accompanied by their mother, Mrs. Mary Hudspeth, of 1760 Euclid street N.W. “We’re the three daredevils.' said Marsha, 12. “We climb cliffs, walk railroad tracks, climb trees and everything. We’ve been counting on com ing to the White House since last year.” “I thought we came for an Easter egg fight.” said the youngest daredevil, James, 8, who carried a basketful of po tential ammunition.

Some other outdoor activities gave in to the dripping skies and postponed proceedings. One of these was the egg hunt in Magruder Park, Hyattsville, postponed until 10 a m. Satur day.

Atom Experts Identify Odd-Ball From Space CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Msr. 30 I (AP).—Evidence of odd-balls 1 among the meteorites from ( outer space—fancy enough to , be mistaken for machined iron —was reported today by two ] ! atomic scientists. Identification of one such strange object—differing some what from all other known me teorites—was reported to a meeting of the American Phy sical Society, convened at Massachusetts Institute of I Technology. , The report cleared up one puzzle that has plagued sci entists for 40 years. However, it left unanswered how this ob ject, and possibly others like it still undiscovered, took on features differing from those of run-of-the-mill meteorites that sometimes reach the earth. 1 Physicists David Fisher and and Olivir A. Schaeffer said the object they studied was a i chunk of iron found imbedded > in the soil of Washington County, Colo., away back in ! 1916. Ever since its discovery, they I said, there has bee a-uncertainty i as to whether it was an iron meteorite—or just a chunk of Senator Lists Stock Holdings Young of Ohio Puts Value at $270,000 B? the Auoelated Press ucinooiii or unio, voiunTaniy reported his stock holdings to day to the Senate. They are valued on the current market at about $270,000. Senator Young said he took : this rare step so “anyone inter ested may judge in the future ! whether there is any conflict |in Interest influencing my ac-j : tion and votes as United States Senator.” In a report to Felton M. | Johnston, Secretary of the-Sen ate. Senator Young also an nounced he will sell stock he holds in two sugar concerns. He is doing this, he said, be cause the Senate Agriculture Committee, of which he is a i member, will be considering legislation concerning sugar imports. Aside from the stocks, Sen ator Young said he owns prop erty in Cuyahoga County (Cleveland), California and Mississippi, “on which there is an oil lease.” He listed no dollars and cents figures. The stocks valu ation is an estimate from current prices. Saying that a list of stocks may embarrass “my family and me,” he added: “You may de pend upon it. I will never cast j a selfish vote.” He said he is arranging with | his broker to sell 154 shares of | South Puerto Rican Sugar and See YOUNG, Page A-6 forging discarded by some craftsman of the past. In fact, much of the past evidence favored earthly, rather than out-of-this-world, origin. For one thing, the object’s overall appearance suggested it “might have been machined.” And, if you polished a piece of it, it showed a type of surface "different from any other me teorite.” For example, there was some evidence of some por ousness throughout the mass. The researchers—both of the Atomic Energy Commission’s Brookhaven National Labora tory at Upton, N. Y.—said they recently solved the riddle by applying a finding made several years ago by scientists in sev eral countries. This was the discovery that all meteorites, as they hurtle through space, acquire quanti ties of gaseous helium the latter being produced by the action of cosmic rays on the material of the meteorite. While the researchers voiced certainty that the Colorado specimen is meteoric, they of fered no immediate explanation for its variance in structure from all other iron meteorites that occasionally reach the earth from outer space. Soviet Notes Agree To Meeting May 11 Nehru Rebuffs Reds on Their Tibet Protest Won't Bar Debate, « But Shuns Firm Stand on Revolt . < NEW DELHI, Mar. 30 (AP). , —Prime Minister Nehru today j rejected Communist China’s at- | tempt to cut oil discussion of ] the Tibetan revolt in the Indian | Parliament but still took no , firm stand toward the Red mili tary campaign to suppress the , revolt. , Criticism mounted in Indian ( newspapers of Mr. Nehru’s fail- , ure to back the Tibetan rebels’ . attempt to free the Himalayan country of Communist control, j "Let us hold our heads low today.” said the Hindustan , Times, considered closest to Mr. j Nehru’s Congres Party. It , called for a “realistic reassess ment of the basis of our foreign policy.” Mr. Nehru told Parliament ' that lie would make firm state ments on Tibet when he was in a position to make them. He said that within the limits of propriety he would give Parlia- j t ment all information he had on 1 the events in Tibet. j Voices No Condemnation t Mr. Nehru said India’s sym- 1 pathies “go out to the Tibet ans.” a comment which brought ' a thunderous “Hearl Hear!”:' from Parliament. But he voiced no condemna tion of the Chinese. He de- " dined to comment on Peiping’s announcement that the Dalai Lama had been ousted as head of the local Tibetan govern ment and told a questioner his government had made no ln quiry to Red China on the ouster. Mr. Nehru also denied Red Chinese charges that the “com manding center of the rebel lion” was in Kalimpong, the J Indian town near the north- east border where many Tl- | betans have taken refuge. Russia’s Communist Party ( organ Pravda echoed the Pei ping charge that Kalimpong . was the seat of rebellion and ! I also claimed that Nationalist | Chinese planes were flying I | arms to the rebels. Western observers in Hong Kong dis-, counted the latter charge be caupe of the considerable dis- I tance between Formosa and Tibet. , j Widespread Resistance Communist China, mean- . while, was expected to launch , an all-out drive to Communize; Tibet following its replacement ! ( jof the fugitive Dalai Lama's re- , I bellious government by a pup-1, 1 pet regime headed by the coun- , i try’s other spiritual leader, the ; ! rival Panchen Lama. Despite Red China’s claim that the rebellion was quelled March 21, two days after it: 1 erupted in Lhasa, widespread 'resistance was reported contin-! uing in various sectors outside the capital. Border reports said Chinese rule extended only 20 or 30 miles south of Lhasa. A rebel “national defense army” was said to be collecting taxes in the south. A rebel radio was reported operating there. Even Pravda said rebel rem nants were still holding out in remote sectors of Tibet, but it claimed “the armed adventure of a baud of traitors has suf fered complete defeat.” The whereabouts of the Dalai Lama remained a mystery. Some Indian press reports said the 23-year-old god-king was fleeing south toward the Indian border. Other reports said he had swung eastward after find ing the southern roads blocked by the Chinese Communists.

KEY TO THE KREMLIN Khrushchev Called 'Brilliant Bonehead' By WILLIAM L. RYAN Auoelated Brew Foreign Neva Anoint Long before anyone dreamed of Nikita Khrushchev as a future czar, a Western dip lomat sized him up shrewdly as “that brilliant bonehead.” The man can bluster and guffaw his way with a terrify ing air of carelessness toward the edge of global disaster. But he is no genius. His career has been dotted with bonehead plays. In a meeting at the summit, nonetheless, Western statesmen would face a formidable an tagonist, a dynamic bundle of reckless energy and dazzling paradoxes, far less predictable, potentially far more dangerous than the mighty Btalin. One of his success secrets seems to be an astonishing knack for blaming his own mistakes on others—and get ting away with it. Another has been an Olympian scorn of weakness and what he would regard as bourgeois morality. - True Lenin Disciple Premier Khrushchev knows 1 only one truth. In a sense he is a missionary. He has referred piously to his “Communist faith.” In propagating this faith, he has shown himself a true disciple of Lenin.

Artist's Drawing Spurs Hunt for Jackson Killer Police of seven Jurisdictions investigating the quadruple murder of the Carroll V. Jack son family today focused their manhunt on an artist’s draw ing of a suspect who may be the widely sought killer. Deputy Washington Police Chief Edgar E. Scott, after a meeting here this morning of District. Maryland and Virginia investigators, gave the drawing to newspapermen with this comment: “This is a composite picture taken from the information of several witnesses in cases other than the Jackson case.” Wide Distribution Planned He said the picture might be supplemented later with another drawing. It is based on the accounts of witnesses “who have seen the man in their own particular cases," Chief Scott said. Chief Scott would not dis close the names of the inform ants, but it is believed the in formation came from persons who had their cars forced ofl lonely roads in Maryland and Virginia recently, as happened to the Jacksons before they were murdered.
