Khrushchev Reviews Farming

MOCOW () - Soviet leaders
called for a complete reorganiza-
tion of agriculture yesterday to get
more food on to the tables of
Soviet citizens.
A communique issued after a
week-long meeting of the Com-
munist Party's Central Committee
claimed that much had been done
in the past several years but
added:
"The level of output of grain,
meat, milk and other products is

still obviously insufficient and does
not correspond to the great poten-
tialities of the socialist system of
economy and the increased- re-
quirement in products."
Appeals to Farmers
At the same time, Premier Nikita
S. Khrushchev appealed to unpro-
ductive Soviet farmers in a speech
published in Izvestia to make 1962
the turning point in the solution
of the country's agricultural prob-
lems.

The speech, which was made
Friday, was the Premier's conclud-
ing address to the committee, the
governing body of the Communist"
Party, and for that reason the
governing body of the Soviet
Union. A brief summary of the
speech was made public Friday,
pointing out Khrushchev denied a
crisis existed in Soviet agriculture.
The text came out Saturday night.
Nowhere did he discuss publicly
foreign affairs, even to breathe a

word about the approaching dis-
armament conference in Geneva,
nor the nuclear tests held in abey-
ance in the United States. These
subjects may have been discussed
in secret session not reported pub-
licly.

Fanfani Gets
Deputies' Vote
Of Confidence
ROME tom)-Despite angry op-
position from the Fascist right and
the Communists, Premier Amin-
tore Fanfani's new left of center
government won a resounding vote
of confidence yesterday.
The tally in the Chamber of
Deputies was '295-195.
In winding up debate, Fanfani
reiterated that Italy will remain
loyal to its Western alliances and
oppose extremists of right and
left. He had just received a per-
sonal message from President John
F. Kennedy assuring him of an
identity of views between the Unit-
ed States and Italy.
What aroused the right wing,
including conservatives of Fan-
fani's own Christian Democrats,
was the new voting alliance with
Pietro Nenni's Socialists, who once
formed a popular front with the
Communists.
But as expected, Christian Dem-
ocrats went right down the line
for Fanfani on the vote of confi-
dence, along with the Democratic
Socialists and the Republicans.
Propose Trade
Conduct Plan
WASHINGTON () -- The Na-
tional Planning Association out-
lined yesterday legislation to per-
mit the conduct of foreign trade
policy "as an integral part of for-
eign policy"-a much more sweep-
ing program than President John.
F. Kennedy's.
The privately supported orga-
nization issued a report recom-
mending that the President be
empowered to apply different tar-
iff policies to four different groups
of countries-advanced industrial
nations, low-cost manufacturing
countries like Japan, underdevel-
oped areas, and the Dino-Soviet
plod.

S. .era of progress

IN ADVANCE:
U.S. To Give
Public Notice
On Ai-Tests*
WASHINGTON (A) -- The un-
earthly, alarming brilliance of
thermonuclear explosions presum-
ably wil be one reason for the gov-
ernment's decision to give advance
public notice to some detonations
in the Pacific test series due to
start late next month.
The possibility that some of the
blasts may be seen at very high
altitudes could mean that the
flash might be seen thousands of
miles away.
Advance notices, of course, are
issued routinely to warn shipping
and aircraft out of test areas and
to 4 alert populated areas against
the remote possibility that some
fallout could occur downwind.
However, in the last nuclear
tests at the Eniwetok-Bikini prov-
ing grounds, residents of Hawaii
were startled on at least one oc-
casion by the sky-lighting of an
explosion 2,000 miles distant.

Pre dicts Age
Of Progress
For World
Speaks at Dinner
To Aid Democrats
MIAMI BEACH P) - President
John F. Kennedy said last night
the orbital flight of astronaut
John H.. Glenn, Jr. proves the
United States has the ability to
pace the world in this new area of
progress.
Speaking in the heartland of the
United States space effort, Kenne-
dy said humanity is on the brink
of an age of undreamed discov-
ery.
"An age," he added, "which may
well dwarf the explorations of;
Columbus, Magellan and Sir Fran-
cis Drake.
Imaginative Fiction
"It will be an age in which,
many of the predictions of imag-
inative fiction will be coming
true."
The chief executive, in remarks
prepared for a $100-a-plate Dem-
ocratic fund-raising dinner, keyed
to the Florida setting his praise3
for what space scientists already1
have achieved and his claims for
the future.
Momentous Occasion
Only last month, Kennedy said,
w,,rld attention focused up the
coast on Cape Canaveral.
More dramatic moments - and
setbacks as well-face the coun-
try in the years ahead, Kennedy
said.
"But the flight of John Glenn
and the Friendship Seven make
clear that we have both the will
and the capacity to lead the
world."

GENEVA CONFERENCE:
Rush Must Negotiate
With Russia, West
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
Associated Press News Analyst
GENEVA-United States Secretary of State Dean Rusk actually
will have to conduct two sets of negotiations during the foreign min-
isters meetings here this week.
He must negotiate with the Russians, but even more important
he must negotiate with his own allies.
The Western powers are about as badly divided as they have ever
been on the eve of an important meeting with their Soviet antagonists.
Except for the French, the splits are not particularly dramatic but
they are persistent and deep. They seem to represent a kind of ero-
sion of common purpose.
To Widen Rifts
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko must be expected to
use every trick he can muster in his efforts to widen the rift. But
Soviet policy has its own limitations, derived from its overriding hos-
tility to the'West.
France has pulled so far from the mainstream of Western policy
that President Charles de Gaulle ruled out French attendance at the
disarmament conference opening Wednesday.
He refused to send an observer, which was the least Rusk and
President John F. Kennedy had hoped for.
De Gaulle Disagrees
Thus the originally scheduled 18-nation conference will be a 17-
nation conference because de Gaulle basically disagrees with the way
Kennedy and British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan are trying
to handle Russian relations.
De Gaulle does not think the disarmament negotiations will make
any progress whatever, and he has always disapproved United States
probing of Soviet intentions in the Berlin crisis, which is one of Rusk's
reasons for coming here.
De Gaulle has argued for months that since Premier Nikita S.
Khrushchev started the Berlin crisis he should take the lead in set-
tling it. Macmillan's view stands at the opposite extreme: He not
only favors Western initiative in probing but seeks whenever possible
to move negotiations along toward a summit conference.
Kennedy finds Macmillan closer to him on most issues than other
allies. Rusk and British Foreign Minister Lord Home are known to
get on well. But British-American relationship develops friction when
the going gets tough.
