John Shortridge is going to act
as an attorney, he’d better learn
some professional ethics.

fore Judge Lowell Thompson,
Shortridge, 27, was acting as his
own attorney on a charge of re
ceiving stolen property.
The court gave him permission

defendant.

Khrushchev Still Plugging For Summit
Meeting Proposes Agreement on Easier
Problems Before Trying Basic Issues
By ROY ESSOYAN
MOSCOW, U?i — Still plugging
for a summit conference, Nikita
Khrushchev proposed last night
that government heads start with
issues “we can agree on before
tackling the tougher and more
basic problems.”
The Communist party boss was
talking with Western ambassa
dors at an Indian national day
reception. He spoke with the good
humor he usually displays on the
Soviet capital’s cocktail circuit, in
considerable contrast to his blasts
at the I^iited States and the West
in a speech last week in White
Russia. •
Khrushchev did not say just
how the Soviets and the Western
allies could agree on which small
er issues they are likely to agree
on. The West has proposed that
talks by ambassadors and for
eign ministers work this out prior
to any summit meeting.
Summit talks, Khrushchev said,
“should be like a Russian meal.
Let’s start with zakuksa (hors
: d’oeuvres), proceed with soup and
fish and end up with the main
course.”
The length of such a multi
course meeting was not specified.
The Wtstern powers usually try
to hold their top level conferences
to a tight schedule of only a few
days, but most East-West talks
have dragged on interminably.
The Soviet Union will not re
turn to the U. N. disarmament
subcommittee talks, Khrushchev
reiterated, adding that “delibera
tions of the subcommittee were
hypocricical.” The Soviets an
nounced during the last General
Assembly they were quitting the
U.N. arms negotiations, contend
ing they were stacked against
■Communist and neutral nations.
A nautical mile equals the
length of one minute of latitude.
