America Ambassador in Russia Well Qualified for Assignment Editor's note: The followinr xr tide, prepared by United Press In ternational, describes Llewelyn E. Thompson Jr., who is United States ambassador to Russia. It tells of Thompson's background and his ability to negotiate with the Rus sians on a summit conference, which is his ' current task in the Soviet Union. B United Press International Llewelyn E. Thompson Jr., the poker-faced American am bassador to the Soviet Union, was described recently, by one of his western colleagues in Moscow as "that fine fig ure of a diplomat." : But that's far from the com plete picture. Handsome, dapper and me ticulously correct in deport ment, Thompson a career diplomat does give the su perficial appearance of the stereotyped fashionplate am bassador. But this appearance does not deceive his Russian hosts or ether ' diplomatic envoys, who know Thompson as a shrewd, well - briefed and skillful negotiator with one of the toughest minds in the business. He is equally adept at han dling touchy allies or sly ad versaries. The Colorado-born diplo mat, 54 years old in August, is direct and succinct in ad dress. He shuns rhetoric, avoids the customary diplo matic circumlocutions and hammers home his points like a trial lawyer. Methodical Worker Thompson is fond of say ing that "information is the mother of intuition" but does not 'rely on any- sixth sense alone when he approaches the conference table with his head crammed full of hard facts and briefcase bulging with all pertinent documents. He works methodically, showing up at his office at 9 a.m. and putting in an in tensive workday. He places J full confidence in his staff, listens patiently to all advice and then makes his own de cisions. He lacks the scholar ly gifts of his two immediate predecessors, Charles E. Boh len and George Kennan, but makes up for this by native common sense, industrious ness and experience. He' is well suited to conducting the long and often exasperating talks which are his lot in his present post. Thompson, born in Las Ani mas, Colo., Aug. 24, 1904, was graduated from the Univer sity of Colorado in 1928 and entered the Foreign Service the next year. His first as signment was in Ceylon, fol fowed in 1933 by a post in the U.S. Consulate in Geneva which at that time was the seat of the League of Nations. Interest in Fizz Cited by Educator Loma Linda, Calif. (UPI) Fizz in their gin interests Americans more than the fiz zles in their rockets, and thatfs one of the reasons the U.S. is lagging in the space race, a Washington, D.C., educator said today. Dr. Winton H. Beaven, dean of the School of Graduate Studies at Potomac Univer sity, 'told the ninth annual Institute of Scientific Studies for the Prevention of Alco holism that Americans spend more on liquor than basic re search. "Americans are spending 10 times more on liquor each year than is being spent on basic research, upon which' our survival as a nation, we are told, depends in this age of rockets and sputniks,'" Bea- I ven said. "This may account for our lag in the space race with the Russians." ROCKET FIRING BANNED Birmingham, Ala. (UPI) Home - made rockets were placed in the same class as fireworks here Tuesday and forbidden for general use. The city commission adopted a resolution making it unlaw ful to launch rockets except under the supervision of the fire marshal. " and mncf , products - -;v nauu k 71 a Went io Moscow in 1940 In 1940, Thompson was transferred to a minor post in the Moscow embassy. -Four years there gave him a work ing knowledge of Russian but he is not a fluent linguist. When the diplomatic corps fled Moscow for the Volga in October, 1941, as the Ger mans menaced the capital, he remained behind and risked possible capture to look after American interests. After his first Moscow serv ice,' Thompson was assigned to London, Washington and Rome. A big break for him came in 1952 when President Tru man appointed him high com missioner in occupied Austria, a. post in which he was to achieve two outstanding suc cesses which marked him for higher things. He and a British diplomat skillfully- persuaded - the Ital ians and Yugoslavs to accept a partition of the city and port of Trieste and thus set tled that thorny post-war issue. Austrian Treaty. He then was assigned to work with the British and French to negotiate with the Russians an independence treaty for Austria a labor which culminated in unusual success. Thompson moved from Vi enna to Moscow in mid-1957, succeeding Charles E. Bohlen. Within a short time, in De cember, 1957, the Russians on Vis, py ' torn 0' ... . , It costs you more to do without St!

Thompson is regarded as particularly well-qualified for the tedious and cautious job of trying to work out such ar rangements with the Rus sians. He is a good reporter and tenacious negotiator. Thompson married Mrs. Jane Monroe Goelet in 1948. They have two daughters, Jenny and Sherry. Mrs. Thompson has another daugh ter, Fernanda, by a previous marriage.
