more relaxed than in recent
years. The anniversary session
at San Francisco last summer
captured some of the benevolent
' impulses which prompted the
drafting of the Charter in 1945.
The subsequent conference of
four major powers at Geneva did
more to promote a conciliatory
spirit. It is hardly to be expec
ted that any nation will purpose

doves of peace at this session of
the -Assembly. Perhaps no con

were none at Geneva, but surely
the acerbities that have marked
debates in previous sessions will
be fewer and less sharp.

of State John Foster Dulles, and
Foreign Minister Molotov of the

ing here Sunday for Tuesday's opening session of the 10th U. N.
General Assembly. Quick tests of U. S.-Soviet strength in between
the Geneva Big Four meetings were !in the works.
Soviet Foreign Minister V. ;M. Moliotovj arrived from .Moscow to
attend his first General Assembly j working session since 1946,
making one of his rare plane
flights to gel here in time for
the meeting. -" . -
His arrival was expected to
sharpen the clash over Red Chi
na's demand lor a seat in the U.
N., a fight he is expected to lose;
over Communist Poland's contest
for a Security Council seat against
the U. S. -supported Philippines,
where U. S. strength may be in
danger; and over rival disarma
ment plans.
Fresh From Moscow
" Molotov comes fresh from Mos
cow, where Saturday the Soviet
Union promised to give back the
Porrkala naval base to Finland.
It was a move interpreted as
strengthening Soviet demands that
the United States also give up its
bases in foreign lands. '1
U. N. diplomats expect Molotov
to stress the new Soviet position
on bases as a counter to the an
nounced U. S. demand for unani
mous Assembly approval of Presi
dent Eisenhower's proposals to ex
change aerial reconnaissance and
defense ' blueprints to avert sur
prise attacks. t
Disarmament Issue ,
Molotov also was expected to
give the first 'hard indication in
his policy speech next week on how
the Russians will vote on that plan, f
Disarmament is expected to be paper reports said Sunday a Na
