Khrushchev is First Head of Soviets
To Set Foot In The United States
By WILLIAM L. RYAN
WASHINGTON, UPi — Soviet
Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev
began his historic visit today with
an appeal for “good neighborly”
relations between Communist and
capitalist states and a sharp re
minder that the Soviet Union had
beaten the United States in the
race to the moon.
President Eisenhower, welcom
ing Khrushchev to American soil,
told the chubby Communist lead
er the United States could never
launch an aggressive war because
the American people rule the
country and are devoted to peace
In the President’s welcoming
speech was the clear implication
that Russia has no such built-in
restraints against aggression.
Curious But Unexcited Crowd
While a curious but quietly un
excited crowd looked on at An
drews Air Force Base, the serious
faced Soviet leader heard the
President express the hopes of
the United States for a “just, uni
versal and enduring peace.”
The two men thus began in
the very first moments of their
exchange of visits a struggle for
the support of world public opin
ion.
Khrushchev’s reference to his
nation’s success in putting a cap
sule on the moon, with the ham
mer and sickle emblem, was a
frank boast of Soviet prowess in
science. Almost in so many words
he told the President that Am
erican science would get to the
' moon sooner or later, too.
It was a momentous scene in
the gleaming sunlight of the air
base in nearby Maryland. In a
sense two worlds were meeting
for the first time—never before
had a master of Soviet Commun
ism set foot in the United States.
When the President’s welcom
ing remarks were translated, the
Soviet Premier applauded. Then,
smiling, he approached the micro
phone, donned jjiis spectacles,-and
said there should be no obstacles
to good relations between the two
countries. He said he had come
to the United States with “open
heart and good intentions.”
In referring to the Soviet tri
umph over the weekend in plant
ing a rocket on the moon, Khrush
chev said:
“Our earth has become some
what lighter while the moon has
gained some hundred pounds of
weight.”
Polite applause greeted his re
marks.
Biggest Civilian Airliner
Khrushchev’s huge turbo-prop
plane, the world’s biggest civilian
airliner, touched down at An
drews Base at 12:21 a.m., about
50 minute late because of strong
headwinds over the Atlantic.
A crowd of men, women and
children, which had grown stead
ily since the morning, lined the
waist - high fence around the
airfield decked with breeze
whipped American and Red So
viet flags.
As the enormous plane, white
with red stripes, taxied down the
concrete runway, guided by a
yellow truck, the honor guard of
soldiers, sailors and marines snap
ped to stiff attention. Eisenhower
had walked to the end of the
taxiing strip when the plane was
spotted in the distance and was
waiting there when it came to
a stop. A military brass band
blared a martial air as the plane’s
doors opened and the beaming
Soviet leader emerged. The two
most powerful leaders in the
world shook hands.
Smiling, Khrushchev waved his
homburg hat as he and the Presi
dent walked toward the hard
wood polished platform for the
formal welcoming ceremonies.

Reds Want No Part
Of Fact-Finding
Mission In Laos
MOSCOW, OP) — T h e Soviet
Union says the only way to deal
with the trouhle in Laos is thru
an international conference, with
Red China taking part.
The Soviets in an official state
ment issued Monday night by
Tass new agency, again repudi
ated the U.N. fact-finding mission
sent to investigate the tiny Asian
kingdom’s charges of aggression
against the Communists.
The Soviet statement warned
the West that the Security Coun
cil’s action might have “far
reaching consequences for peace
and security in Indochina.”
The statement was timed with
the arrival of the U.N. mission
in southeast Asia and Premier
Khrushchev’s takeoff for talks
with President Eisenhower in
Washington.
The Soviets demanded a con
ference to be “called without de
lay” by the countries that attend
ed the 1954 Geneva conference
which ended the French - Com
munist fighting in Indochina and
states of South Viet Nam, Laos,
They were the United States,
Britain, the Soviet Union, France,
Red China, and the Indochinese
states of South Viet Name, Laos,
Cambodia and Communist North
Viet Nam.
The first U. S. reaction to the
Soviet proposal was cool. A
source close to the situation said:
“Apparently the Soviet leaders
are not willing to let the U.N.
fact - finders have a chance to
make their report.”
