One of Nikolai F. Turkin's children contracted the disease so the family was granted an extension of its stay in the Unit ed States. Turkin already is in Russia. Aleksandr K. Guryanov, an other low-grade UN diplomat declared "undesirable" by t h e State Department, was booked with his wife and daughter to sail cabin class aboard the Queen Mary at 5 p.m. Exceeded Privileges The State Department ordered Moscow to recall the two for exceeding their diplomatic priv ileges with "particularly objec tionable" behavior in the sail ors' case. The strange case started in Juife 1954, when the Soviet tank er Tuapse was captured by the Chinese Nationalists off Form osa. Nine of its crew were grant ed political asylum by the Unit ed State. They entered this coun try last October to work or study in the New York area. Five of the sailors suddenly decided to return home April 7. The other four stayed. Pressure Exerted The Senate internal security subcommittee heard evidence that persistent pressure and pos sibly violence had been exerted against the five by members of the Soviet UN delegation, acting under orders of Ambassador Ar kady A. Sovolev. Cunard lines said they had a cabin-class reservation for the Guryanov;. but nothing for the Turkins. The U.S. mission to the UN disclosed the Turkins' stay was extended by chicken pox.

Wednesday, May 9. 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVZlf United States To Review Methods Of Disarmament Washington U.R) The Unit ed States is undertaking a new "task force" review of possible ways to break the East-West dis armament deadlock, administra tion officials reported today. The detailed disarmament re view has the approval of Presi dent Eisenhower. It will be di rected by Harold E. Stassen, presidential disarmament advi ser, who has just returned from seven weeks of frustrating 'dis armament talks in London , with the Russians. Work on the project will be started soon by both private and government experts on disarm ament subjects. These subjects include- nuclear science, inspec tion, missiles, steel production, and communications. To Continue Work . Stassen said following a call on the President Tuesday that he had been instructed "patient ly and consistently to continue to seek a sound agreement with the Soviet Union and with oth er naGons" on disarmament. He acknowledged that the London talks "emphasized that the exist ing disarmament disagreements with the Russians "continue to be more important than areas of agreement." Despite the problems immedi ately ahead, Stassen said a new disarmament message might be on its way soon from Soviet Pre mier Nikolai Bulganin to Presi dent Eisenhower. Bulganin still owes the President a reply to March 1 proposal for an East West freeze on nuclear stockpiles. Use Tribune Want Ads QUICK and EASY!
