West Asks Mr. K
Consider May 16
Summit Date
A1UGUSTA, Ga., UP) — The
United States, Great Britain and
France formally proposed to Rus
sia yesterday that the four powers
open a summit conference in
Paris May 16.
The next move is up to Soviet
Premier Nikita Khrcshchev. White
House Press Secretary James C.
Hagerty said there has been no
indication yet whether the new
date is acceptable to the Russian
leader.
Word of the Allied decision on
summit timing was an ill-kept
secret in numerous world capitols.
The Western Powers agreed on
May 16 a day or two ago, but
they withheld an actual an
nouncement until they could no
tify Khrushchev.
This was done in similar diplo
matic notes, delivered in Moscow
yesterday, from President Eisen
hower, Prime Minister MacMillan
of Britain and President Charles
De Gaulle of France.
If Khrushchev agrees to their
proposal, the Western trio prob
ably will get together in Paris a
day in advance of the opening of
their session with the Soviet
Premier.
The Big Three originally had
suggested convening a summit
conference on April 27. Since the
meeting would have conflicted
with Russia’s huge May Day cele
bration on May 1, Khrushchev
countered with April 21 or May 4.
An April 21 meeting was un
acceptable to Eisenhower and De !
Gaulle, as the French President j
plans to be visiting the United
States and Canada about that
time. MacMillan would have been
tied up early in May with a Brit
ish Commonwealth conference
scheduled for May 3 to 14.

jU. S. Shakes Off
Restrictions on
Atom Testing
By DOUGLAS B. CORNELL
AUGUSTA, Ga., UP) — The
United States freed itself today to
resume nuclear weapons tests at
any time — but with prior notice
to the rest of the world.
The decisiin was reached at a
top level conference of 15 Admin
istration officials headed b y
President Eisenhower.
It put this country in a position
to take a tougher stand in nego
tiations with Russia at Geneva
over discontinuing nuclear tests.
What the Administration did
was to begin what a Presidential
statement called a “period of vol
untary suspensions of nuclear
weaponus tests,” beginning Jan
uary 1.
During this period, the Presi
dent said, the U. S. will “con
tinue its active program of wea
pon research, development and
laboratory-type experimentation.”
“Although we consider our
selves free to resume nuclear
weapon testing, we shall not re
sume nuclear weapons tests
without announcing our intention
in advance of any resumption,”
Eisenhower said.
At the moment the United
States is operating under a mora
torium on tests which last until
midnight Thursday.
It has been in effect for 14
months. The White House said the
moratorium was a definite com
mitment covering a definite time,
as distinct from the new “volun
tary suspension” which carries no
deadline.
Eisenhower accused Russia of
clouding the Geneva talks, now in
recess i|ntil January 12, with “in
temperate and technically unsup
portable” information. He said the
Soviets have injured chances of
agreeing for a halting of nuclear
tests, but this country neverthe
less will continue taking part in
the discussions.
Ike Is 4Man of Year’
NEW YORK, W> — Time Mag
azine yesterday named President
Eisenhower its Man of the Year
for 1959.
The magazine said the President
“towered as the world’s best
known, best-liked citizen” after
his trip to Europe, Asia and
Africa.
Time’s editors choose each year
the man or woman who “domi
nated the news of that year and
left an indelible impression on
history.”
The magazine selected Eisen
hower once before — in 1944.
