:

Gives Policy,
Backs Stand
During Talk
By WILLIAM L. RYAN
Associated Press Special Correspondent
Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's
foreign policy speech before the
Supreme Soviet yesterday sounded.
like the statements of a witness
on trial before a court of world
Communist opinion.
There were curious notes in the
speech.
Khrushchev repeated over and
over that the USSR is Cuba's
friend and will not abandon her,,
as if to suggest that somebody,
sormewhere in the Communist
camp or in Cuba; had to be reas-
sured on that score.
Berlin Question
Khrushchev revived the Berlin
question, but mildly. Ever since the
Caribbean showdown, Soviet prop-
aganda had permitted this to re-
cede, giving the impression that
the Russians had been caught of f
balance by the Kennedy-Khrush-
chev showdown. ,
Khrushchev appears in the po-
ation of explaining to world Com-
munism *hy he did what he" did
in the Cuban crisis, and justifying
it in light of the violent criticism
from Red China and Albania.
The Soviet leader tried' to jus-
tify his Cuban backdown by say-
ing that it proved "the imperial-
ists" could be prevented from
starting a war. That is the gist of
his ideological argument with the
Chinese, who still contend the big
clash between two 'systems is in-
evitable.
'The Imperialists'
Khrushchev agrees with the
Chinese that "the imjperialists"
have not changed their aggressive
ways. But, he argues, the balance
of world forces' has changed, and
thus war can be avoided. The So-
viet Union has too much to lose to
risk any more dangerous doctrine
than that.

Says USSR
Saved World
From War
Premier Tells Nation
First Crisis Account
MOSCOW )A'--Premier Nikita
S. Khrushchev said yesterday he
is holding Pesident John F. Ken-
nedy to what he called pledges
against an invasion of Cua and
warned if they are not kept "we
will be compelled to take such ac-
tions as the situation requires of
us."
Speaking before the Supreme
Soviet (Parliament), Khrushchev
stressed that the "anti-invasion"
pledge was a main factor in the
Soviet Union's withdrawal of rock-
ets and bombers from Cuba.
The Premier acknowledged the
rockets were "ready for launching,
for action"-but said the Russians
had no intentions of bringing them
into play for an attack on the
United States.
Loudest cheers came from the 1,-
443 deputies when he claimed to
have saved the world from nuclear
war and opened the way for "more
common sense . . . more striving to
remove the logjams which produce
frictions and create tensions in re-
lations among states."
The speech was broadcast to the
nation, and gave many Soviet citi-
zens their first extensive account
of what had gone on in Cuba.
Khrushchev pledged himself to
fulfill Soviet commitments in the
Cuba settlement "so long as the
other side stands by this under-
standing." Then he added:
"But if the commitments assum-
ed are not observed by the other
side, we shall be compelled to take
such action as may be required by
the situation."
While conceding that criticism
had come from many quarters
about the Cuban settlement, even
from the Communist c a m p,
Khruschchev claimed a victory.
To Chinese charges that he
"capitulated to imperialism," by
withdrawing the rockets from
Cuba, Khrushchev brought rousing
applause by declaring: ,
"In what way have we retreat-
ed, one may ask. Socialist Cuba
exists. Cuba remains a beacon of
Marxist-Leninist ideas in the
Western hemisphere. The Impact
of her revolutionary example will
grow.aThe government of the Unit-
ed States has given a pledge not to
invade Cuba. The threat of ther-
monuclear war has been averted.
Is this a retreat?"
Khrushchev acknowledged that
Russian rockets In Cuba were
"ready for launching, for action"
but he denied the Soviet Union
had chosen the island as a base for
an attack on the United States.

Nehru Notes
Cease Fire
Not Binding
NEW DELHI VP)-Prime Minis-
ter Jawaharlal Nehru said yester-
day India has given no guarantee
it will continue to observe the
cease-fire the Chinese, Commu-
nists proclaimed in the Himalayas.
"We have given no guarantee
on the future of the cease-fire,"
Nehru told Parliament.
"It depends upon the circum-
stances. But for the time being
India s accepting it.",
Nehru said India does not wish
to impede the cease-fire and wel-
comes reports of Chinese with-
drawal in thesnortheast. The Chi-
nese are insisting on holding their
present positions in Ladakh, at
the northwestern end of the bor-
der, where they occupied more
than 2,000 square miles in their
invasion.
Whatever the outcome of the
cease-fire and the Chinese with-
drawal, Nehru said, India will have
to continue to strengthen its de-
fense forces.
Nehru reiterated India's demand
that the Chinese give up their re-
cent military gains before there
can be'any peace talks.
Peking has rejected this de-
mand.
Nehru said talks- with the
Chinese' could begin if they with-
drew to the positions they held
Sept. 8.
Nehru reported 197 Indian sol-
diers were killed in fighting from
Oct. 20 until last Monday. The
fighting stopped Nov. 22 with the
Chinese cease-fire proclamation,
but two more Indian soldiers were
killed later.
Local Women
To Observe
HUAC Hearing
Six Ann Arbor women active in
the Women for Peace Movement
left yesterday to attend and ob-
serve today's House Un-American
Activities Committee hearing on
possible Communist infiltration of
the peace movement.
Although some of the women in
the local group sent telegrams to
the committee volunteering to tes-
tify to explain the goals and ac-
tivities of the Women for Peace
movement, none expect to be call-
ed, according to Mrs. John Son-
quist, wife of' a University staff
member.
She said local women had re-
ceived no replies from the commit-
tee, but that Washington women
who made similar offers'had been
refused by the committee.
The group hopes to contact
Michigan congressmen who may
be in the capital today, Mrs. Son-
quist said.
The Ann Arbor group Monday
night sent a telegram to Sens.
Philip A. Hart and Patrick V. Mc-
Namara, and Congressman-at-
Large-elect !Neil Staebler, urging
their "personal attention" to the
House investigation of Women
