Soviets Agree to
Resume Talks on
A Nuclear Treaty
MOSCOW UP — The Soviet
Union Tuesday agreed to a call
by the United States and Britain
to resume negotiations Nov. 28
for a treaty to end nuclear weap
on tests.
The Russians agreed to resump
tion of the talks in Geneva where
they were broken off Sept. 9
after the Soviet Union had re
sumed testing in the atmosphere.
Soviet acceptance of the West
ern proposal indicated that it has
completed its current series of
tests — which included explosion
of a Hydrogen Bomb of more than
50 megatons.
In notes delivered to the Brit
ish and American Embassies, the
Soviet Foreign Ministry warned
that if some other power tests
nuclear weapons while the new
talks are going on, it will be
forced “to draw the corresponding
conclusions concerning nuclear
tests.”
When the Allied notes were de
livered here Nov. 13, the United
States made clear that even if
the talks were resumed, it would
not begin another uninspected
moratorium on testing. The State
Department said that the United
States would “pursue its own pro
gram of carefully circumscribed
testing.”
It was not clear whether this
difference of views might result
in a last-minute decision by one
side or the other not to resume
the negotiations.
HE GOT ACTION Y > .

call, he found that all three of

ports that Lewis is now using a

off by displaying his picture.

“ a lovely, bouncy, jolly and happy
young man.”
Tke Says Soviets Plan
To Defeat U.S. by
Forcing It Into Bankruptcy
AUGUSTA, Ga. L# — Former
President Dwight Eisenhower says
the Soviet Union hopes to defeat
this country toy forcing us “to
spend ourselves into bankruptcy,”
not by military power.
For that reason “we must never
demand one dollar more than is
necessary for adequate military
strength,” he told an estimated
6,000 persons attending a meeting
Monday night of the Central Sa
vannah River area Chapter of
the Association of the U.S. Army.
It was Eisenhower’s first public
address in Augusta where he
spent many golfing vacations as
president.
He said he does not believe the
United States is on the brink of
global war because “there is no
one in the world who would dare
challenge us with any hope of
winning."

Woman Sets Record
In High-Flying Balloon
OKEMAE, Okla. Iff) — A woman
who calls herself a dedicated
capitalist spent 40 cold, sleepless
hours in a balloon because “I got
sick of the Russians holding all
the records.”
Constance Wolf, 56, of Philadel
phia landed in an east central
Oklahoma field 12 miles west of
here Monday.
She had spent 40 hours, 8 min
utes aloft in a 5-foot square
Wicker basket hitched to a 65-foot
rubberized balloon. That bettered
a mark of 34 hours, 21 minutes,
31 seconds claimed by a Russian
woman.
“I’m nearly dead,” were her
first words when she reached the
sheriff’s office here. “I’ve been in
that miserable balloon . . .”
Mrs. Wolf didn’t know how long
she had been up. She left Big
Spring in southwestern Texas
Sunday but forgot to note the
time. She was in overcast skies
most of the time and couldn’t
communicate with the ground.
“I was afraid to come down. I
was afraid I had not beaten the
^Russian) record,” said Mrs. Wolf.
This was Mrs. Wolf’s first at
tempt at a record, although she
has been a balloonist for 10 years
and an airplane pilot for 35. “I
never cared for records,” she ex
plained, “hut somebody had to
show those Russians they don’t
know it all.”

John Birch Society Head
Says U.S. Supports the
Advance of Communism
AUSTIN, Tex. (*> — The U.S.
government, “while always pre
tending to oppose,” actually sup
ports the advance of world Com
munism, says Robert Welch, head
of the conservative John Birch
Society.
He told a rally Monday night
the federal government is “the
most powerful single force sup
porting the steady worldwide
Communist advance.”
A crowd estimated by police at
1,000 attended the meeting, spon
sored by the Austin Anti-Com
munist League.
“No earthly power could drag
the Soviets into a real war or
an honest war with the United
States,” Welch said.
“Not until the Soviets have
complete victory already as
sured is there any slightest dan
ger of the use of the Soviet arms
or armies on American soil.”
Welch, a retired candy manu
facturer, said “a comparatively
few thousand Communists, con
centrated in key departments” of
the government have taken the
United States “steadily down the
road to Communism by steps
supposedly designed and present
ed as ways of fighting Commu
nism.”
