Nixon flew here today and said he and Premier Nikita Khrushchev -agreed during their talks that "differences between nations must be settled at the confer ence table and not oh the bat tlefield." "So my message to the peo ple ol Leningrad from the people of the United States is T?eace for all the world," Nix on told a large welcoming crowd at Leningrad airport. . Nixon flew here from Mos cow with Mrs. Nion, Soviet .first Deputy Premier and -.Mrs. Frol R. Kozlov in a Rus sian TU-104 Jet airliner. They made the flight in one hour and nine minutes. '."-A crowd of between 1,000 and 1,500 persons gave the Jfixons and the Kozlovs a cor dial welcome at the sun drenched airport. Nixon, in response to an 'Zatfficial welcome from Chair- Z man I. V.

"I had Sunday a very con- . structive and full discussion r on some oi uie proDiems we have between our two coun- j.jrries, XMixon said. J - I can say that we had some differences with Chairman ,kn'-jshchev on points of is- . sue. I would say it was not a case of his convincing me or - my convincing him. . "But there is a point on "which we did agree-that dif- ferences between nations must . jbe settled at ' the conference Z- table and not on the battle-;-iield." ' Spiridonov told Nixon in ;Jris welcoming speech that "oui people want to live in peace and friendship with all : peoples, especially Ameri- cans." ' Offers Sincere Welcome 1 "I hope your visit' will Iserve for better understanding between Russia and. the Amer--jan people, wh'ih we all ar dently desire," Spiridonov said. "From the bottom of my heart, welcome." "r It was a far bigger and juarmer welcome than Nixon "deceived on his arrival in Mos leow. In the crowd were two American tourists who held trp- placards reading "Nixon welcome." The tourists identi ,'rfied themselves as Eleanor '. Myers of Scipio Center, N.

By CHARLES CORDDRY S. United Press International . Washington-UPD-The allied Siilitary position in West Ber lin is "extremely vulnerable." IThat is the word from offi cers on the staff of Gen. C. D. Eddleman, commander of U. ;S. Army forces in Europe. -"To newsmen who recently "visited their headquarters at Heidelberg, Germany,., these officers pointed out that: - J7Russia has six divisions in "the immediate vicinity of East Berlin. -The United States, Britain, and France have the equiva lent of one skimp division in Wes Berlin. -These allied forces are 110 miles fr6m the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's forward ".line. ' .President Eisenhower, of "jourse, knew all this when he Ttteclared that the , allies will littot surrender any of their treaty rights in Berlin. Tactical Position Poor SHe recently told reporters that the West's tactical posi tion in the old German capital is- about as poor aj possible. It is. much worse than it was iduring the Soviet blockade of jBerlin in the 1940s. 4 The President said that in eve it of another blockade iai Germans could choke the West's land routes to West Berlin by damaging bridges nd highways. And, he said, they could disrupt another allied airlift by jamming ra dar equipment. How, then, can the West Catalogue, Guides Biggest Hits at Moscow Exhibition By ALINE MOSBY. United Press International Moscow - (UPD - Two of the biggest hits at the U. S. Exhi bition in Moscow are the Sears Roebuck catalogue and the Russian-speaking Ameri can guides. Russians have shown their enthusiasm for the exhibition that opened Saturday by climbing over the fence and crashing through the turnstile gate to see what the Ameri cans have.

The Nixons were lively de spite the dawn to midnight schedule they have followed. They were seen off by acting Foreign Minister Vasiry Kuz netsov and U. S. Ambassador and Mrs. Llewellyn Thomp son. Also traveling with the Nixons was Yuri Zhukov, So viet cultural exchange chief. Earlier two other planes flew 100 newsmen to Lenin-i grad. Rickover Accompanies Nixon Nixon, accompanied by U. S. atomic expert Vice Adm. Hyman Rickover, was begin ning a five-day sweep across the Soviet Union before re turning to Moscow Friday night and further talks with Khrushchev. He leaves next Sunday for a brief visit to Poland en route home. The American vice presi dent, who engaged Khrush chev in a public verbal duel last Friday, held secret talks with Khrushchev Sunday at the p.-?mier's "White House" in the country. They touched on most major issues of con cern to the United States and Russia. Rickover, "father" of nu clear - powered submarines, was included in the Nixon party .for the inspection of the Lenin, the Soviet Union's sin gle atomic ship. The Lenin has been launched but still has not been commissioned. It was unveiled previously for only one other -Westerner, British Prime Minister Har old Macmillan. hope to maintain access to West Berlin if the Russians try to freeze us out? The de tailed answer, of course, is secret. But U. S. Army experts in Heidelberg believe much de pends on whether Soviet Pre mier Nikita S. Khrushchev feels hostilities over West Berlin could be kept within the bounds of "limited war." Will Reds Take Chance? Logic and the facts say the Communists could pinch off West Berlin any time they wanted to. But a -e they will ing to risk a general war by such action? The Army experts say Rus sia knows it.- would lose a global war. They also say Eu rope is not aMikely arena for limited warfare - the stakes are too high. . And arguing against any dispositioi by Russia to risk global war is her certain knowledge, say the experts, that Western nuclear arms can destroy her. If the time comes when Russia believes . her nuclear weapons can destroy the West's military power before it can retaliate well, say the experts, that time must not be permitted to arrive. , Meanwhile, as the Berlin crisis continues, here is the general lineup of TSast and West military forces: Russia Russia is credited with 175 divisions, 20,000 military air craft of which about 3,000 are deployed in the satellites, and som-? 450 submarines. She is introducing a new all-weather fighter plane. Cf her total ground forces, 135 d;visions are said to be west of the Ural mountains, including 20 to 22 in East Ger many. Fifteen thousand of her aircraft are west of the Urals. There are 65 satellite divi sions of varying degrees of re liability. American sources say Rus sio has hundreds of missiles ditioi.al belted tunics jostled pretty girls in modern sum mer cotton dresses to examine electric blankets and adding machines But one smash success was the Sears Roebuck catalogues which were placed on reading racks and attached to the wall. During a tour of the exhibi tion crowded with chattering excited Russians, three teen aged girls were seen poring over the catalogue pages showing pictures of brassieres -which are not too common in Moscow stores. Outdraw Other Display The catalogues so far have outdrawn a display of arty and expensive books in the sam section. The Russians have almost a schoolboy crush on the Rus- sion - speaking American guides in the exhibition. They are eager to make friends with the, guides as well as compete with them in argu ments. Sunday crowds of Russians were packed ten deep outside the glass pavilion hemming in an American guide who was engaged in a lively debate on eastern European politics. Outside the controversial American exhibition home, a large crowd watched several Russian women questioning another guide about the homes of American workers, their wages and their families. Touched Off by Stories The arguments apparently were touched off by sttories in the Soviet press pointing up the theme that America is not as rosy as the fair and Vice President Richard M. Nixon would have the Russians be lieve. An exhibition of abstract art at the fair has attracted great attention and at one point so many Russians crowd ed around an American guide to argue he had to flee to save the paintings from being crushed. ; The Russians opened refrig erator doors, peered into auto matic dishwashers and bounc ed basketballs. They ogled the modern three-room apartment where a guide was preparing dinner to the strains of "South Pacific." in the 700-mile-plus range and has recently moved shorter range artillery - type missiles into ihe satellites. Russia claims to have intercontinen tal ballistic missiles. She has 4,500,000 men un der arms and the satellites an additional 1,500,000. West The Atlantic Alliance has about as many men under arms, if you count all those in the United States and de ployed around the world. Gen. Lauris Norstad, su preme allied commander in Europe, has more than 1,000, 000 men in his immediate forces. He has about 50 divi sio.ts from Norway to Turkey, 5,500 to 6,000 aircraft and, in wartime, the Navy's 6th fleet in the Mediterranean. But he has only 22 of the 30 divisioris that he considers to be critically needed in cen tral Europe. ' Increasing numbers of mis siles, from short-range Honest Johns to 1,500-mile range bal listic types are being deployed by the West but not as fast as military leaders would like. Nuclear weapons are being, or soon will be, stored under American control in a number of coi ntries for use of NATO forces in wartime. Mission of "Shield" The mission of the NATO "Shield" forces is this: To make the price of limit ed aggression anywhere on the 4,000-mile front too great to ay, to help deter general war, and to hold the line in event of a general attack nu til the "sword" of nuclear re taliation can destroy the en emy. The sword consists of the tow-ring strength of the U. S. Strategic Air Command, the smaller but powerful British Bomber Command, and cer tain U. S. Naval units. "We now depend on these retaliatory forces," says a spokesman for Norstad, "to an extent that cannot be overstated." Weeks' Sewing Buy jT 9058 ) SIZES V 36-48 Slimming as a diet!
