O
Professor’s Text Denoiinein? Kremlin
By Stanley Johnson
MOSCOW — An American
professor and a British leader in
the ban-the-bomb movement used
a Kremlin rostrum to criticize the
Soviet Union for resuming nuclear
tests. The American spoke at the
Soviet-sponsored World Peace Con
gress Monday night, and the Briton
yesterday.
A member of the U.S. delegation
to the Congress, Prof. Dale Pontius
of Chicago told the 2,000 delegates
in the Kremlin Hall of Congresses
tiic Soviet Union was wrong in
breaking the test moratorium last
Sept. 1.
The 55-year-old educator, who
teaches political science at Chi
cago’s Roosevelt University cited
statements of President Kennedy,
ex-President Dwight D. Eisenhower
and Gen. Douglas MacArthur —
all bitterly assailed in the past by
Communist spokesmen — to show
their preoccupation with peace.
To the chamber which had
rung with cries of “atom maniacs”
and “war mongers,” Pontius had
this warning word:
“If you continue calling one
power a ‘war monger’ or a ‘wild
beast of imperialism’, epithets
used against others without de
nouncing your own governments
when they adopt policies or pur
sue activities which endanger the
peace and safety of the world, you
may get emotional satisfaction by
one-sided denunciation, but you
are not helping the cause of peace.
“On the other hand we must
give up epithets about the socialist
countries of the world such as the
‘slave world’ or ‘Iron Curtain’
countries.”
He also arraigned Red China,
accusing it of creating border in
cidents with India.
Tass, Soviet news agency, broad
cast abroad a lengthy text of the
Pontius speech. Soviet reporting of
material unfavorable to the Soviet
Union has been unusual.
Canon John Collins, of St. Paul’s
Cathedral in London, a leader of
the British nuclear disarmament
movement, not only criticized the
Soviet Union but also smaller non
aligned countries for failing to re
duce their military machines. He
rapped the United States, too, for
its hydrogen blast Monday.
Parts of his declaration got
scattered applause from Congress
delegates, most of whom are either
Communists or Communist apolo
gists.
Pontius did not spare the United
States in his criticism.
He said a majority of the 150
member U.S. delegation agreed
that the United States was “mis
taken in perpetrating the U-2
flights” over Soviet territory and
“violated the peace of the world
by sponsoring the invasion of
Cuba.”
He said the United States failed
to advance a program to negotiate
peace over Berlin, that it helped
prmote an arms race by stepping
up conventional armaments, that
it was aiding a fascist-type regime
in Viet Nam.

U.S. Rejects
Nikita’s Latest
Proposal on Berlin
WASHINGTON UP— The United
State's disclosed yesterday that it
has already rejected the latest
public proposal by Soviet Premier
Khrushchev for getting United
States, British and French troops
out of West Berlin,
The State Department also blast
ed as “hypocrisy” Khrushchev’s
criticism of American high-altitude
nuclear explosions over the Pacific
Ocean.
A statement sharply reminded
the world that the Russians broke
the test ban and fired several high
altitude shots last fall.
Khrushchev’s Berlin proposal
and his criticism of U.S. nuclear
testing were covered in a speech
he made at a Peace Congress meet
ing in Moscow Tuesday.
He said that troops of P «■ Rig
Three Western powers in R din
should be replaced by either Nor
wegian and Danish or Belgian and
Dutch forces plus forces of Czech
oslovakia and Poland. The first
four nations mentioned arc U.S.
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza
tion allies while the1 Czechs and
Poles belong to the Soviet bloc.
Khrushchev said the new gar
rison would be under the U.N.
flag.
The State Department said: “It
has already been indicated to the
Soviets that the particular variant
mentioned by chairman Khrush
chev does not provide a satisfac
tory basis for Berlin negotiations."
It had been learned earlier that
the proposal was discussed in
secret talks between U S. and So
viet . diplomats seeking possible
solutions to the Berlin situation.
CAB RULES NORTHWEST
AIRLINES MUST REFUND
SI,833,000 IN MAIL SUBSIDY
WASHINGTON UP — A Civil
Aeronautics Board examiner ruled
Monday that Northwest Airlines
be required to refund $1.833 000
in government mail subsidy paid to
it in 1954.
Associate chief examiner Thomas
L. Wrenn’s ruling would, among
other things, ban any subsidy to
the airline that year, including
items to cover:
1. $103,333 in termination pay
for aviation pioneer Harold R. Har
ris, former president of North
west.
2. Similar separation pay total
ing $19,167 for H. D. Reynolds, an
assistant to Harris.
3. Lobbying expenses in the
Philippines totaling $13,600.
The ruling will become final on
the part of the board within 30
days, unless the airline files a
petition for discretionary review.
Northwest had contended that it
should receive an additional $990.
000 for its total for that year to
bring its total for that year to
$2,823,000.
But Wrenn said the airline’s
operations in 1954 were so profit
able that no subsidy whatever was
needed or should have been
granted.

WASHINGTON T — Hou-v
critics of foreign aid nnv< . hnrpcn
ecl their knives over the program
and called for major surgery.
They indicated Monday they
want to amputate air! to Yugo
slavia and Poland, and to cut as
sistance to India.
The program’s supporters count
ered that such an operation would
he dangerous to the health of the
aid program which President Ken
nedy has described as “vital to our
security.”
The carving would come in the
form of amendments to the $4.7
billion uthorization measure.
Debate on the bill was suspend
ed yesterday because of the pri
mary election in Virginia and the
major league All-Star game in
Washington.
House members paid scant at
tention Monday to the amounts,
involved, aiming their major argu
ments at expected amendment,
to limit aid to India and to forbid
further assistance to any Commu
nist country.
The Senate, which has passed it -
foreign aid measure, cut back the
administration’s Indian aid request
of $815 million to about S727 mil
lion.
The foreign aid program is
handled annually in two bills. The
authorization bill new before the
House spells out the program’s
scope and authorizes Congress to
finance it within limits. The sec
ond measure appropriates the
money.
The Senate .also curbed aid to
Communist Poland and Yugosla
via which have been receiving
U.S. assistance under the theory
that it would encoura.gr aim ess
ence from Moscow.
