John F. Kennedy made it clear
yesterday that the United States
would strike first with nuclear
weapons if they were needed to
prevent a massive, conventional
Soviet attack from over-running
BUENOS AIRES (m) - Generals.
admirals and air force chiefs flew
into Buenos Aires from all parts
of the country yesterday to debate
what to do about President Arturo
Frondizi, who refuses to resign.
Among them was a general who
declared himself in open rebellion
against the president.
Frondizi attended to business as
usual, adamantly sticking to his
post and apparently hoping that
his defiant stand would crack the
military and political front de-
manding his ouster.
Compromise Rejected
The president rejected the rec-
ommendation of his own chosen
mediator, former president Pedro
Aramburu, that he resign as the
only way out of the crisis.
Frondizi's decision brought near-
er the possibility of a military
coup.
Most Argentine military leaders
were angered at the decision of
the Frondizi government to permit
followers of the former dictator,
Juan D. Peron, to participate
openly in the provincial elections
March 18.
Military Unsatisfied
The Peronistas scored a victory
with about 35 per cent of the pop-
ular vote. Frondizi's action in send-
ing federal interventors into five
provinces to cancel out Peronist
victories failed to pacify the mili-
tary.

PEACE-KEEPING:
Thant To Ask Cutbacks
If UN Bond Issue Fails
By The Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS-Acting Secretary-General U Thant indicat-
ed yesterday that unless a lot more United Nations bonds were sold
by May, he would ask the Security Council for instructions on whether
to cut back the UN's peace-keeping operations in the Congo and the
Middle East.
Thant said both. operations would be affected if the response
of UN members to the $200 million bond issue was "not as satisfactory
as anticipated" when the General
Assembly authorized the issue last

At Geneva
Try To Reach Accord
On Basic Deadlock
GENEVA (P)-Secretary of State
Dean Rusk declared himself in
agreement with Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei Gromyko on some
points in the Berlin dispute yes-
terday but the deadlock remained
unbroken on basic issues.
One of the points of agreement,
announced in a joint statement
with Gromyko, was to keep talk-
ing. United States informants said
a second point is that both share:
an understanding their govern-
ments want to avoid war over
Berlin.
With leading members of the
American delegation to the 17-na-
t i o n disarmament conference,
Rusk then boarded a plane for
Washington to report to President
John F. Kennedy that the Berlin
crisis is still dangerous but un-
likely to break out into a shooting,
war in the foreseeable future. He
was followed by British Foreign
Secretary Lord Home.l
Both Rusk and Lord Home said
they would return to the confer-
ence any time their presence would
speed its work. Their aides will
continue the negotiations which
may drag on for weeks or months.
The joint statement said, how-
ever, that the, talks had been "use-
ful and some progress has been
made in clarifying points of agree-
ment and points of difference.
Rusk and Gromyko have agreed to
resume contact in an appropriate
way after reporting to their re-
spective governments and after
consultation with their allies."
A statement issued by White
House Press Secretary Pierre Sal-
inger said that "all available
means" would be used to turn
back such an assault.
The statement did not mention
use of nuclear arms in these cir-
cumstances, but they are a ma-
jor pillar of United States defense
and would probably be embraced
in the term "all available means."
The White House comments
were prepared in reaction to an
article by Stewart Alsop in the
Saturday Evening Post. Itquoted
the President as saying that in
some instances the United States
must be prepared to take the ini-
tiative in using nuclear weapons
and cited "a clear attack on West-I
ern Europe" as an example.
Alsop's article, based on an in-
terview with the President five or
six weeks ago, also attributed these
points to him:
-That America's big post-war
edge in air and nuclear power be-
gan to fade in 1958 or 1959 with
the advent of missiles, bringing a
drastic change in the balance of
power.
--That Kennedy's strategy is to
have sufficient arms flexibility to
be able to choose the response to
Soviet thrusts, rather than have
the choice forced on the nation.
-That two basic nuclear doc-
trines of the past have been dis-
carded: anything- bigger than a
brush fire would be a nuclear war,
and the United States would never
strike first with nuclear arms.
Salinger did not specifically
verify any of the remarks, but he
said "the President's statement
represents no change in American
policy."

i o Increase
Warheads
WASHINGTON ()')-A high ad-
ministration official said yester-
day the United States plans to
more than double the number of
its nuclear warheads available for
combat by 1965.
This information was given to
some 800 newsmen from around
the country during the final day
of a two-day foreign policy brief-
ing session held at the State -De-
partment.
President John F. Kennedy was
the featured off-the-record speak-
er. Others included presidential
trade adviser Howard Peterson,
foreign affairs adviser Chester
Bowles,-Secretary of Defense Rob-
ert S. McNamara and United
States Information Agency Direc-
tor Edward R. Murrow.
The reported step-up in nuclear
power was accompanied by a
statement that the United States
f has and will continue to have suf-
ficient atomic weapons capacity
to survive an initial Soviet attack
and still destroy the Soviet target
system and those of any Soviet al-
lies.
The newsmen also heard that:
-While missiles are playing an
increasing role in United States
defense, today's B-52 and B-58 jet
bombers will still be in business
into the 1970's.
-The long-range B - 52 jet
bomber will take on an additional
dimension by 1965 with addition
of long-range Skybolt missiles.
