The President started the politi cal speculation at a brief stop late Thursday in Concord. The hint that he might seek another term came as he spoke before an historic joint session of the New Hampshire Leg islature convened In a tree lined plaza before Concord's antique statehouse. His chief assistant, Sherman Adams, whose Lincoln, N.H., home was on the President's morning Itinerary, lectured the White House staff every morning on the wonder ful advantages of his home state, the President said with a broad grin. "People often nsk me what my ideas are on how long I would like a residence In if 00 Pennsylvania Avenue (the White House address). My own thought is they should ask how long U is going to take Gover nor Adams to finish his series of lectures on New Hampshire, be cause he doesn't reem to be a third of the way through them yet."

As for arms, Dulles pointed out that the United States proposed nearly 10 years ago to jnleroatioti ilize atomic energy. Had this pro posal been accepted then, he said, it would have prevented the "pres ent competitive production" of atomic weapons. Dulles noted that the Soviet .Un ion recently Indicated it might bo prepared "seriously" to consider disarmament.

All 16 ministers of the cabinet and many other top government offi cials resigned Thursday to givo Peron a free hand in reorganizing his administration. Peron made no mention of politi cal problems in 1 nationwide radio address Thursday night. The speech concentrated on the abor tive nayy-led revolt of last Thurs day. The president said he would give the people the facts ot the attempt lo overthrow his regime in view of the censorship imposed under the state of siege. "If It were not for the people and the army, I would abandon the government" as a' result of the short lived bloody revolt, Peron said.' "It I have not done so, It is be cause I am afraid of what the con sequences would bring to the coun try." . Peron said the revolt was. hatched by political opponents, "clerical elements and other civil ians," and high-ranking naval of ficers. The plot started last Novem ber, he said. ' He named Vice Adm. Tornnzo Calderon, commynder-ln - chief of the Argentine marine corps, as the spiritual leader of the rebellion. He said two pmlected rebel "de crees" were found under a rug in the admiral's of'ice in the Navy Ministry. One, he said, called for anyone resisting the revolt to be shot on the spot: the other, for the immediate control by the new re gime of the Peronlst Ceneral Con federation of Labor. Peron said the rebels planned to nssassinate him and seize the gov ernment. After his denth in the rebel bombardment of Buenos Aires, he said, armed civilians were to Join the rebels and sow terror and genoral chaos." Driver Praised In Bus Crash REDDING, Cailf.
