For Speed
EDWARDS AR FORCE BASE,
Calif. (A'-The X15 began its long-
planned assault on the near reach-
es of space yesterday by streaking
faster than 2,650 miles an hour, a
new record for manned flight.
Officials said instrument checks
may revise the figure upward to
2,800 m.p.h.
Air friction heated the rocket
plan'es skin to an estimated 700
degrees, another record for mlan-
ned flight. But the pilot, Air Force
Maj. Bob White, said he was com-
fortable in' his pressure suit and
air conditioned cabin.
White surpassed his own X15
speed mark of 2,275 m.p.h. with
only a brief, two-third throttle
burst of the craft's mighty new
space engine.
He called the flight a complete
success, and added that he "feels
certain the X15 will achieve its
design mission."

ASSEMBLY RECONVENES:
East, West Clash as UN Meets

UNITED NATIONS (AP) - The
United Nations General Assembly
resumed its fifteenth session yes-
terday with the United States and
the Soviet Union both calling for
deferment of cold war issues.
But bitter East-West clashes
were in prospect with the United
States seeking concentration on

the Congo crisis and Moscow de-
manding full-scale debate on So-
viet Premier Nikita S. Khrush-
chev's plan for total disarma-
ment.
Adlai E. Stevenson, chief Unit-
ed States delegate, declared the
United States was going into the
session "firmly determined to do

Nkrumah Asks Reassertion
Of UN Authority in Congo
UNITED NATIONS (AP) - President Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana
demanded yesterday that the United Nations "reassert its authority"
in the Congo to bring order to that country and keep it out of the
cold war.
Nkrumah, opening speaker in the resumed session of the General
Assembly, asked the Assembly to endorse a broad program that
would begin with establishment of a primarily African UN command
and UN force for the Congo and end with a new parliamentary,
election there under UN supervision.
He said the UN Secretariat had- made "serious mistakes" in
handling the Congo situation under resolutions of the Assembly and
-the Security Council. But he did
not join in the Soviet pressure to
LEL FOUNDATION replace - Secretary-General Dag
Hammarskjold with a three-man
c i o committee representing East, West

and neutrals.
Asks Reorganization
vin T. W ineHe said the United Nations must
reorganize to "adjust itself to the
Windsor, Ont. changing political circumstances
in the world today."
Q But he declared the most ur-
rc Q . gent issue now was the Congo, and
Hill that should be settled before any-
thing else.
In the Congo now, he said, "un-
disciplined mutineers enlisted by
President Joseph Kasavubu and
his Army commander, Maj. Gen.
Joseph Mobutu, are threatening
the lives of UN troops.
This situation, he declared,
"gives the UN an opportunity to
Q en n is reassert its authority" and win
the moral backing needed to settle
other world problems.
Criticizes Objectives
Nkrumah said the trouble with
present UN objectives in the Congo
were that they were "not es-
sentially African objectives" but
"primarily objectives aimed at
halting the cold war by achieving
a compromise between the great
powers."
"We must not seek compromises
between East and West in this
Congo' crisis," he said. "What is
at stake' now is African unity,
peace and security and not the
ambitions or interests or rights or
legalities of the great powers."
Rebel Leader

all it can to alleviate the cold war
instead of aggravating it."
He declared the United States
would be glad to see the list of
issues before the resumed session
"cut to the bone," deferring all
but the few items essential to con-
duct of Assembly business.
Lists Items
Among such items he listed the
financing of the multi-million dol-
lar UN Congo operation, to which
the Soviet Union refuses to con-
tribute.
"Further discussion of the Con-
go may also be necessary," he
added, "but we are prepared to
defer all other items.
"If the majority of the members
agree, we will support such a
move. If they don't, we are pre-
pared to discuss all items on the
agenda. But we cannot make a
trade or a deal to delete some
items in exchange for others."
Refers to Talks
The last was an apparent ref-
erence to private talks Stevenson
held with Soviet Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko on issues before
the resumed session.
Published reports on the talks
prompted a statement from the
Soviet delegation headed by Gro-
myko denying that the Soviet Un-
ion was agreeable to dropping
disarmament if the United States
deferred discussion of a United
States-proposed African aid pro-
gram.
The Soviet statement said it
was necessary to conclude con-
sideration of Khrushchev's dis-
armament proposals in order to
reach basic agreement at the cur-
rent session on negotiating treaty
calling for general and complete;
disarmament, and the makeup of
a working body to conduct such
negotiations.
To Consult
O n Econom-y'
WASHINGTON (A) - President
John F. Kennedy late yesterday
summoned his top financial and
economic advisers to a conference,
today to review the economic sit-
uation.
TheWhite House summons went
out as a joint Congressional com-
mittee concluded two days of hear-
ings on the economic picture.
Secretary of the Treasury Doug-
las Dillon told the committee a
rising stock market usually sig-
nals the end of a recession.

Settlement Marks
End of Long Dispute
ATLANTA (/P)-Leading Atlanta
department, variety and drug
stores have agreed to desegregate
their lunch counters and other
facilities when thercity's public
schools are desegregated in Sep-
tember.
A group of merchants and Negro
leaders yesterday announced set-
tlement of a year-long dispute
that brought the closing of many
lunch counters ana the arrest of
numerous Negro students who
demonstrated against segregation.
Counters To Reopen
The lunch counters will be re-
opened on a segregated basis until
school desegregation occurs. At-
lanta public schools are under a
federal court order to desegregate
eleventh and twefth grades in
September.
Under the settlement Negro
leaders pledged to make every ef-
fort to end immediately all sit-ins,
picketing and boycotting of stores.
But a joint statement announc-
ing the settlement said each party
is fully cognizant of the limita-
tions of its own commitments on
behalf of any group other than
the one it specifically represents.
Mayor William B. Hartsfield said
"this agreement puts us all on our
mettle in seeing that the school
integration next. September is
brought about without any dis-
order and without outside inter-
ference."
Return to Normalcy
Ivan Allen, Jr.,, president of the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce,
said the agreement would mean a
return to normalcy for downtown
business and pave the way for
peaceful desegregation of eating
facilities.
A. T. Baldwin, Negro attorney
and special negotiator in the set-
tlement, said the agreement means
that all sit-ins probably are over.
Walden said Negroes who lost
their jobs because of the shutdown
of lunch counters and because of
the Negro boycott of stores, will be
rehired where practicable.
The agreement did not detail
other facilities or stores to be de-
segregated. Negroes have sought
rest room desegregation as well as
lunch counters.

President
Might Not
Push Ban
WASHINGTON (P)-President
John F. Kennedy was reported
yesterday to have indicated he
feels that he should not press for
any deadline on negotiations with
the Russians for agreement on a
nuclear weapons test ban.
That was the impression passed
along to newsmen after a White
House luncheon President Ken-
nedy held with his top defense.
diplomatic and scientific leaders
and a congressional delegation.
Some members of the committee
said they came away with the im-
pression that the President and his
chief advisers are leaning to the
British position that something
less than a wholly foolproof in-
spection system might be accept-
able if the Russians will agree to
a test ban.
These members said they were
disappointed by the seeming will-
ingness not to insist on a speedy
showdown with the Russians indi-
cated by John J. McCloy, the ad-
ministration's chief disarmament
planner, and Arthur Dean, chief
United States negotiator in the
talik to be resumed March 31.
Without disclosing any details
of what went on, Sen. Clinton P.
Anderson (D-NM), a senior mem-
ber of the Senate-House group,
said a majority of its members are
opposed to an indefinite continua-
tion of- this country's current vol-
untary suspension of nuclear
weapons testing.
Court Calls
King Penalty
Extra-legal
ATLANTA (A) - The Georgia
Court of Appeals ruled yesterday
that a Judge exceeded his legal
authority in sentencing integra-
tion leader Martin Luther King,
Jr., to 12 months at hard labor
in a traffic case, but the decision
did not free King.
The appellate court in a unani-
mous decision said King should be
brought again before Judge Oscar
Mitchell in nearby DeKaIb Coun-
ty for re-sentencing. The new sen-
tence could be six months in jail
and six months at labor in a
public works camp.
The court said it was powerless
to order the Negro leader freed
because he had entered a plea of
guilty last year to having no valid
Georgia driver's license. This
brought a $25 fine and the 12-
month works camp sentence,
which was suspended at the time
pending good behavior.
