Russia Presents Five - Point Program
At Geneva For Banning Nuclear Tests
LONDON, UPi — Russia unveiled
Saturday a five-point plan for
ending nuclear tests and setting
up control posts.
The Soviet Tass Agency said
the plan was submitted to the Ge
neva Conference on ending nu
clear tests.
It added that the draft consists
of five articles saying:
L The governments of the
three great powers solemnly un
dertake to conduct no tests of any
type of nuclear weapons after the
agreement is signed.
2. They undertake to contribute
toward adoption of similar com
mitments by other states.
3. Parties to the agreement shall
set up ontrol machinery with a
network of control posts.
4. The governments of the great
powers agree to the establishment
of control posts on their terri
tories.
5. There shall be no time limit
to the proposed agreement.
By tying in articles on control
machinery, the Russian draft pre
sumably was aimed at meeting
Western objections to previous
Soviet proposals.
So far the Russians have always
demanded an unconditional end
ing of tests without control ma
chinery. The West wants a cast
iron control system first.
Tass, reporting the preamble to
the draft, says it is aimed at end
ing the nuclear arms race and bar
ring the road to creation of new
types of atomic weapons.

Milkman’s Best Friend . . .

year-old canine, would never win
a dog show. He has only three
legs, is partly blind and something
happened to his tail long ago.
He was on the sidewalk Satur
day when milkman James A.
Kirkpatrick, 59, stopped to make
a delivery. Kirkpatrick entered
the refrigerated truck and the bar
door slammed shut, locking him
in.
The milkman beat on the door
and yelled. Taffy set up a commo
tion.
Mrs. Lamar Parish, the dog’s
owner, looked out to see what was
bathering him. She walked to the
truck and heard Kirkpatrick’s
calls.
“Lady, I’m sure glad you were
home,” the driver gasped when
he stumbled out.

Financing For Highway 97
“I will introduce a hill to in
clude Alaska in the Defense High
way Act, so that Highway 97 can
be sufficiently financed to really
get going,” stated Mike Stepovich,
Republican Senatorial candidate.
Under this act, Highway 97 could
get as much as 97 per cent Federal
aid.
“I see the future road system
from Prince Rupert to Nome. The
ends of the road are not as im
portant as all the spaces in be
tween,” stated John Butrovich,
candidate for Governor. “Alaska
must have an efficient Highway
Department that can get the show
on the road, and I have no inten
tion of giving the stronger parts
of the new State more than the
hinterland,” he added.
Inclusion of Alaska in the Rec
lamation program was promised,
which would help develop hydro
electric power for this area.
Work For Free Gold Market
When asked about the possibili
ty of a change in the price of
gold, Secretary Seaton stated that
he had no authority in the field,
which was reserved for the Presi
dent of the United States and
the Congress.
On the question of gold, Stepo
vioh expressed himself as planning
to work toward a free market for
gold.
“The Department of the Inter
ior is unique,” stated Seaton, in
somuch that it returns to the gov
ernment a large percentage of ap
propriations granted them. This
year it will return 70 per cent
from mining, grazing, oil and
other fees collected.
Replies To Democrats
Referring to an advertisement
in the Nugget placed by the Demo
cratic Party, the Secretary stated
that emphatically contrary to the
releases from Democratic sources,
his action on fish traps was due
to both Stepovich and Butrovich.
“One governor was in office 14
years without getting rid of them,
but it took Stepovich 14 months.
“If anybody believes Stepovich
was appointed governor while op
posed to Statehood, we ought to
erect a statue in a convenient zoo
jo him.”
Army General Seizes
Control In Sudan
By WILTON WYNN
CAIRO [ff\ — Another Middle
Eastern Parliamentary democra
cy went into eclipse today when
army Commander Gen. Ibrahim
Abboud seized power in a mili
tary coup in Sudan.
The coup unseated the pro
Western government of Premier
Abdullah Khalil.
The government radio in Khar
toum, the Sudanese capital, broad
cast a declaration in the name of
Abboud promising to do his best
to achieve good relations with
President 'Nasser’s United Arab
Republic.
British sources in London saw
Abboud’s coup as an army bid to
stall a political reconciliation with
the U.A.R. They said the news,
which was reported to the govern
ment by the British mission at
Khartoum, was no surprise.
Abboud also ordered immediate
dissolution of all political parties,
supervision of all newspapers, and
prohibition of any demonstration
or 'political meetings.
