Polaris Veto Not Taken as Final
Pise 2A
U. S. Leaves Door Open for DeGaulle
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
Of the Associated Press
WASHINGTON Washington
officials are refusing to take
President Charles de Gaulle's
"no" as a final answer to its
proposal that France join with
the United States and Britain in
forming a NATO nuclear strik
ing force.
The hope here is that the
French attitude eventually will
change. The U.S. British project
is just beginning and will take
several years to carry through.
Undersecretary of State
George W. Ball returned Tues
day from a week-long trip to
Europe and said the United
States is prepared to move
ahead vigorously on formation
of the force with or without
French cooperation.
Other officials said privately
that De Gaulle's stand does not
command support generally in
Western Europe. They also said
that even though the United
States intends to move ahead it
docs not intend to close the
door to French cooperation in
the future.
Ball is reporting to President
Kennedy and Secretary of State
Dean Rusk on the results of his
visit to Paris, where he talked
with the 15-nation NATO coun
cil, and to Bonn where he met
with West German Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer. It was un
derstood that he was able to
report the prospect for general
cooperation of the NATO na
tions are good in spite of the
French stand.
"Of course," he told newsmen
upon arrival in Washington, "it
French government has appar
ently decided not to cooperate."
He described his talks with
Adenauer as very successful.
"I think the German govern
ment has Indicated it is pre
pared to go along with the Unit
ed States and the other NATO
nations," he said.
"We made it clear to the Ger
man government that we are
prepared to move ahead vigor
ously in cooperation with the
NATO nations whether the
French government decides to
accept our offer or not."
The NATO project is an out
growth of an agreement made
by British Prime Minister Har
old Macmillan and Kennedy in
their conference at Nassau last
month. The United States will
supply Polaris missiles to Brit
ain and Britain will build the
submarines and the warheads
necessary, to put them into op
eration. Hhe British force and
a matching U.S. force will be
submitted for NATO control.
Meanwhile Britain and the
United States will put an aerial
nuclear striking force at
NATO's disposal since the sub
marine force is not expected to
be available until about 1970,
. Kennedy offered De Gaulle
the same deal he worked out
with Britain. De Gaulle turned
down the offer Monday and re
affirmed his policy of building
an independent nuclear striking
force lor t ranee.

LOME, Togo WV After agree
ing to head a new government,
ex-Premier Nicholas Grunitsky
took on Wednesday the burden
of finding jobs for angry former
soldiers who seized power Sun
day and killed President Sylva
nus Olympio.
Unemployment was expected
to be Grunitsky's major task.
Only 7 per cent of the 1.5 mil
lion people in this poverty-strik
en West African state hold full
time jobs.
Grunitsky, 49, a brother-in-law
of the slain Olympio, agreed
Tuesday to head a new govern
ment. But the nine-memher mili
tary insurrection committee that
overthrew Olympio still held
power. It was reported signing
up recruits lor a new army as
its solution to the unemploy
ment problem.
The military junta published
a communique Tuesday which
said tho revolt was "sponta
neous" and decided by the army
alone. It said there was no par
ticipation by politicians, tho re
volt had no philosophical or
religious basis and power will
bo restored to the pcoplo as
soon as circumstances permit.'
Grunitsky, whose Progress
party opposed Olympio's non-
alignment policies, announced a
policy of African unity and
alignment with other former
French colonies In Africa. The
announcement was expected to

Emmanuel Bodjolle, 35, a
stocky ex-sergeant, spoke for the
ruling junta and the estimated
300 former soldiers in the
French colonial forces who
over-threw Olympio's adminis
tration. Bodjolle said the group re

gime to take them into the Togo
army, a force of about 1,000
men, or into government em

trained in Britain, Germany and

BRUSSELS Britain gained
support Wednesday from Com
mon Market nations in its at
tempt to enter the European
community over French opposition.
There were definite signs of
cracks in the front which the
French have managed to main
tain so far in the 15-month-old
negotiations on Britain's appli
cation for Common Market mem
bership.
The split was centered on the
feeling that Europe will survive
French President Charles de
Gaulle.
Many European diplomats
made it clear they felt De Gaulle
was out of step in stating at a
news conference Monday that
Britain must enter the trade
group without any special con
siderations. Newspapers in Brit
ain and on the Continent also
disagreed with De Gaulle's ob
jections.
Negotiators from the six mar
ket countries and Britain con
tinued talks on tariffs for spe
cific products Wednesday, while
behind-the-scenes efforts were
made to get France to ease its
stand on Britain's application.
The negotiators agreed to
tackle the tariff problem and
defer until Thursday talks on
the controversial question of
British agricultural subsidies.
Representatives of West Ger
many. Belgium, The Netherlands
and Italy expressed support for
tho British position. Luxem
bourg also was believed to take
the same view against De
Gaulle's stand.

Informed sources said Britain
indicated Tuesday it might be
