He said they were made after an examination of the news coverage policy, but did not go into details about what led to the decision.

U.S. Tries To Break Deadlock Foster Finds Soviet Union Unresponsive GENEVA (')-The United States government guardedly offered yes- terday to reduce its demand for eight on-site inspections in the Soviet Union if other arrange- ments in a treaty for a nuclear test ban are made fool proof. William C. Foster, chief United States disarmement negotiator, carefully edged this proposal for- ward in the 17-nation disarma- ment conference in an effort to break the East-West deadlock. He tried to draw a response from the Soviet side. But the Rus- sians, who probably lacked instruc- tions from Moscow, ignored the suggestion. First Deputy Instead' Soviet First Deputy For- eign Minister Vasily V. Kuznetsov tried to shift the attention of the conference to cold war questions by exhuming a pet Moscow proj- ect, a non-aggression past between the North Atlantic Treaty Orga- nization and Warsaw powers. Later over the luncheon table Kuznetsov discussed the test ban problem with the leading negotia- tors for the West. In addition to Foster others pres- ent as guests of the Soviet dele- gate were Sen. Hubert H. Hum- phrey (D-Minn), British Minister of State Joseph B. Godber, Gen. E. L. M. Burns of Canada and Ambassador Francesco Cavaletti of Italy. Shortly after the luncheon Fos- ter left for the United States to report to President John F. Ken- nedy and Secretary of State Dean Rusk. Foster plans to return to Geneva Sunday night. Go Forward As he departed from Geneva Airport, Foster told reporters he hoped the Soviet side would show flexibility now so that negotia- tions could go forward. "I continue to hope that we may develop the necessary meas- ures which could lead to an in- spected nuclear test ban treaty," he said. "The outlook is not too prom- ising because of the rigidity of the Soviet Union in insisting on only two to three annual on-site in- spections-the same number they proposed two months ago." The Western powers believe it would be foolhardy to rely on only two or three on-site inspections a year of suspicious earth tremors on Soviet soil. The United States, with Bri- tain's support, publicly has insist- ed on a minimum of eight. This total in itself is a reduction of earlier demands of 12 to 20 a year. Foster did not mention a figure below eight. To do so would have given his hand away. Discloses Addition To Fleet. LONDON (AP)-The British gov- ernment yesterday disclosed a new nuclear weapon up its sleeve - an airborne missile to preserve Brit- ain's independent deterrent pend- ing arrival of Polaris missiles from America. A defense white paper said the weapon will remain operational even after British Polaris sub- marines go into service. This would provide Britain with a private nu- clear punch independent of Amer- ican help. The white paper, announcing a record peacetime budget of 1.8 billion pounds ($5.2 billion), said the new weapon is under develop- ment but gave no specific per-. formance details. The missile is expected to go in- to service in 1966, about four years before the British-built nu- clear submarines are due to start service with Polaris missiles sup- plied under the agreement signed at Nassau last December by Prime Minister Harold Macmillan and President John F. Kennedy. Until the end of last year, Brit- ain was relying on the American Skybolt missile to carry forward its nuclear striking power into the late 1960's and early '70's. The new weapon, said the white paper, was first developed as a tactical weapon but subsequently was adapted to a strategic role. By MALINDA BERRY The recent crisis of the Cana- dian parliament, which toppled the Conservative government of Prime Minister John Diefenbaker, reportedly blew up over the con- troversy concerning the nuclear arming of Canadian units of the North American Air Defense Com- mand. Whether this dispute with the United States was the actual cause or only the pretext grasped by Diefenbaker's opponents for the dissolutign of the government is only conjecture. It is ironical that the agree-, ment for unified North American air defense, which was designed to cement further U.S.-Canadian re- lations has actually divided the two countries more than can be conveniently remembered. Peaceful Coexistence The stakes, however, are higher than peaceful coexistence. The American Defense Department must feel that the very security of the North American continent is endangered by Canadian refusal to adopt nuclear warheads to the Bomarc missiles and F-101 Voodoo fighters that the U.S. has given Ottawa, Prof. Robert Finley of the department of air science said Monday. "There is no doubt about it," he said. Otherwise there wouldn't have arisen so much controversy. "The Bomarc missiles are de- signed to carry nuclear warheads," Prof. Finley continued. Nuclear Warhead When armed with a nuclear warhead, as opposed to a conven- Warhead Ban Imperils U.S. tional high-explosive as the Cana- dians have done, the Bomarc guided missiles possess sufficient explosive force to neutralize large segments of an attacking fleet. The time between alert and missile launch is considerably less than two minutes. The Canadians and Americans joined in a pact for the defense of the North American continent against air attack on Sept. 12, 1957. In May of 1958 NORAD became an official integrated command. NORAD oversees a radar net- work that stretches from the Pa- cific to Greenland. It can launch missiles within seconds of de- tection of a bomber attack-and jet fighters can be within striking distance within minutes. Nuclear Defense The argument between the North American powers came to a head on Jan. 30 when the State Department said Canada had fail- ed to come up with a practical nuclear defense plan for its por- tion of the NORAD forces. The question centers around the 56 Bomarcs and 66 Voodoos which Canada has. The Voodoo is a two-place air- craft used as an all-weather long- range interceptor flown by a two man crew. The U.S. segment of the NORAD forces is armed with either Falcon missiles or Genie rockets. Few planes are equipped to carry both weapons. There are many types of Falcons -one specifically with nuclear capibility and others designed for more conventional use. The Fal- cons are missiles guided by radar. And the Genie is a high-yield air- to-air nuclear rocket which is free flight. "There are two ways of iden- tifying aircraft-by prearranged flight plans, and by electronic processes," Prof. Finley said. As soon as a plane crosses any of the radar lines which webb the North American continent, its pat- tern is checked against flight plans previously filed with NORAD bases. This should include all com- mercial planes and individuals, he explained. If a plane cannot be identified by the computer with any known flight plan, Prof. Finley continued, "the computer spits out an un- known."' Then if any identification can- not be found on the plane either by radio contact or some other means, then through contact with one of the bases where aircraft are stationed planes are sent up to investigate. No Plane "In one day, considering the entire United States, 30 to 40 planes are scrambled to investigate unknown aircraft. No plane goes as unknown for more than five minutes," Prof. Finley said. When NORAD was established it marked two firsts in American- Canadian cooperation. It was the first two-nation, multi-service mil- itary command to operate in North America,4 and it was the first time the two governments placed their military forces un- der direct operational command of a single commander. It was also the first time inside the U.S. that the Air Force, Army and Navy had been placed under a single commander. 700 OF THEM: New Iraqi Regime to Keep Its Soviet Bloc Technicians BAGHDAD (JP)-Iraq's revolutionary regime emphasized yester- day it will keep on using the services of 700 Soviet bloc technicians despite attacks from Communist capitals on its- purge of home- grown Reds. 'We must get the best out of their skill as you (Americans) did out of the Nazis," President Abdel Salem Aref told a correspondent. The remark was unlikely to make the regime any more welcome to the Soviet bloc, which asserts that Iraq's Communists are being subjected to a blood bath. However, there was no indication the Communists governments, which quickly recognized the new regime, would recall their tech- nicians. A Soviet embassy spokes- " man said the technicians stopped n ea an work when the revolt against Pre-{L 1iianS eny mier Abdel Karim Kassem broke Bases in Jungle out, but all went back to their jobs at the request of the new I To Shoot Down Both the Voodoo and Bomarcs are designed to shoot down enemy bombers, not missiles. The Canadian refusal has limit- ed the offensive effectiveness of NORAD, Prof. Finley said. How- ever, the elaborate detection ap- paratus continues unphased, in- cluding the radar network operat- ed by the U.S. Air Force, and the Mid-Canada line- a detection system maintained by the Cana- dians. NORAD'S radar can spot and report to headquarters within seconds. The next problem is iden- tification of the aircraft.

"The country cannot do with- out the presence of these tech- nicians," Aref told a United States correspondent who had asked whether they were not to be con- sidered a threat to security. The president's remark about American use of Nazis apparently was a reference to German scient- ists who worked on United States projects after World War II. Aref's government has detained some 7,000 Communists and Kas- sem supporters since the revolu- tion.
