Arms Control Plan Proposed

President Backs Plan
,For Integrated Housing

WASHINGTON (P) - President
Lyndon B. Johnson asked nation-
wide support yesterday for five
new "steps toward peace" he pro-
posed to the convening Geneva
Disarmament Conference, includ-
ing a verified freeze on nuclear
bombers and missiles and a halt
in producing fissionable material
for nuclear weapons.
He also suggested outlawing of
direct or indirect aggression, cre-
ation of a system of observation
posts to guard against surprise
attack and a ban on the spread
of nuclear weapons to non-nu-
clear nations.
The President outlined these
proposals in a message sent to the
18-nation disarmament meeting
that convened in Geneva yester-
day, and then in a surprise ra-
dio and television broadcast told
the American people: "There is
only one item on the agenda of
that conference . . . and that one
item is peace."
Repetitive Style
In a repetitive style character-
istic of the late President John F.
Kennedy, President Johnson said

! j

the United States is ready to
"hear any plan, go any place,
make any plea and play any part
that offers a realistic prospect of
peace."
He said hundreds of millions
would be killed in the first hour
if another world war erupts so
the United States wants to re-
duce the risks and return to the
conference table at Geneva "with
new momentum and hope."
Proposals
The President said the United
States is proposing there:
-"New agreements to stop the
spreqd of nuclear weapons to na-
tions not now possessing them."
-"That both sides accept ob-
servation posts on their own ter-
ritories as a safeguard against
miscalculation and misunder-
standing and the fear of surprise
attack." It was learned he is
thinking of 20 or 30 such posts

on both sides of the Iron Curtain
and extending into both Soviet
and United States territory.
--"That both sides stop all pro-
duction of the fissionable material
that is used in nuclear weapons
-. . We have already announced
that we are cutting back our
production. We are willing to shut
down more plants if and when
the Soviet Union does the same,
plant by plant, with inspection on
both sides."
-"Practical measures to ban
the threat or use of force, direct
or indirect ... to change boun-
daries . . . the control.of territory
or access to it."

the educational program has three.
main aims:
-To use the committee's pres-
tige to assist local efforts to create
or expand equal opportunities in
housing.
-To coordinate and assist the
educational activities of federal
agencies in connection with the
order.
-To create a climate of under-
standing and acceptance of the
idea of equal opportunity and dis-
pel what the committee considers
the fallacy that property values
always go down when Negroes
move in.7
The committee chairman, for-]
mer Gov. David L. Lawrence of
Pennsylvania, recently urged the
National Association of Home
Builders to make an independentj
study of what happens to property
values when communities are de-
segregated.
Wants Wider Verification
He said, "Past studies generally,
refute the idea that the presence,
of non-whites will cause a drop in
value. However, these reports have
been prepared, generally, by non-
business groups. I believe they are
correct and accurate, but I recog-
nize that such findings woulda
have greater acceptance if they
were substantiated and supported
by an organization such as yours."
The educational program will
seek to enlist the help of civic,
educational, religious, industrial
and other non-government groups.
A large number of educational
conferences will be held around
the nation. At least part of the
educational effort will be aimed at
Negroes.
Weaver said recently that al-
though more and more adequate
housing is being made available
to Negroes through the executive
order they are slow to move into it.

Murrow Steps
Down, Johnson
Names Rowan
WASHINGTON (M)-Edward R.
Murrow has resigned as director
of the United States Information
Agency. President Lyndon B.
Johnson yesterday named Carl
Rowan, now ambassador to Fin-
land, to replace Murrow in the
$21,000-a-year post.
Rowan, 38, former newspaper-
man and author of four books, will
thus become the highest ranking
Negro in government and the first
of his race to sit in on meetings
of the National Security Council.
Murrow, facing a long convales-
cence from lung cancer surgery,
wrote President Johnson, in a
letter dated Dec. 19, that it was
his duty to step down. The Presi-
dent said Murrow "will be sorely
missed," had "done a magnificent
job" and would be called upon for
advice and help in the future.
