the West?
Top Romanian party and
government leaders saw Khru
shchev off at the airport. It
was assumed he was return
ing to Moscow, although no
one would say specifically
just where he was going.
Reliable sources said Khru
shchev carried with him the
signatures of live East Euro
pean Communist leaders on
a document supporting his
peaceful coexistence theme.
Khrushchev's stay in Buch
arest was extraordinary. He
flew in a week ago Saturday,
without advance fanfare, for
the opening of the Romanian
party congress. He was expect
ed at first to stay only over
the week end but he remain
ed until today.
. Western experts in London
said such a document most
likely would be used to back
up Khrushchev in his cur
rent ideological wrangle with
ea Minnas Mao ise-iung,
who supports a "hard line" in
the Cold War.
The formal signing of the
new declaration, according to
reliable sources here, was the
chief result of the Russian
premier's 1 week-long summit
meeting with the Communist
chiefs of Romania, Bulgaria,
Czechoslovakia, East Germany
and Poland. .
The importance which
Khrushchev attached to these
secret talks was demonstrated
by the fact he stayed over
Sunday for one last session,
rather than flying off to Mos
cow as expected.

112 Spy Episode
Seen To Prevent
Future Mistakes
Johnson Commends
Senate Committee
Washington - IUP1I - Senate !
Democratic Leader Lyndon B.
Johnson said today the Sen
ate foreign relations commit
tee report on the U2 spy plane
episode and the summit col
lapse should prevent "the rep
etition of mistakes" in the fu
ture. The Texan commended the
committee for a "forthright
presentation of facts" in the
report which criticized handl
ing of the U2 incident.
Johnson said 'The Ameri
can people now have a basis
for judgment-judgment on
how to avoid a repetition of
mistakes. I hope we can pro
ceed on the basis of that judg
ment to insure greater coordi.
nation between our agencies.
Meanwhile, Chairman J.
William Fulbright (D-Ark.) of
the committee was working
on a speech to outline his own
views on the U2 affair and the
summit collapse. Fulbright,
who worked to get out a re
port that most members could
sign, said earlier he felt the
document was "very soft in its
criticisms."
To Outline Own Views
Fulbright termed the re
port, issued Saturday night, a
"very thorough factual ac
count" but he said it was
overly moderate and failed to
deal strongly enough with
some of the most important
issues.
Nevertheless, he said, it was
the best report on which a ma
jority of the committee could
agree. Fullbright said he ex
pected to outline his own
views in a Senate speech
within the next day or so.
The report, signed by 14 of
the committee's 17 members,
accused the Eisenhower ad
ministration of mishandling
the spy plane incident at al
most every important point.

Entire Communist
Bloc Takes Walk
To Halt Hearing
Conference Thrown
Into Angry Turmoil
Geneva -fUPD- Russia and its
Communist satellites abrupt
ly walked out of the 10-nation
disarmament conference to
day in an obviously rehearsed
maneuver which blocked hear-
ng of new western proposals
and threw the parley into an
gry turmoil.
Chief Soviet delegate Vale
rian Zorin and the entire Com
munist bloc stalked from the
meeting room vowing to place
the whole issue before the
United Nations General As
sembly as French Ambassador
Jules Moch shouted "Hood-
umism! h o o d I i mism!" at
them.
The western powers
promptly denounced the Com
munists' move, continued with
the day's session and announc
ed another meeting of the con
ference for Tuesday morning,
which the Reds clearly did not
plan to attend.
Reds Plan to Leave
A Soviet delegation official
said all the Communist dele
gation members were trying
to get reservations to leave
Geneva by Wednesday. A Ro
manian spokesman confirmed
this. It was considered prob
able that Zorin would hold a
news conference before he
left.
Zorin, the same man who
broke up the last East-West
disarmament conference In
London in August, 1957, got
the floor first. He announced
that the western powers had
refused to discuss disarma
ment, and therefore Moscow
considered this conference
could do no more work.
Polic Deputy Foreign Min
ister Marian Naszkowski, to
day's chairman, ignored re
peated western attempts
orally and in writing to get
the floor, and announced
when Zorin was finished:
"The work of this commis
sion is now discontinued, its
role therefore now exhaust
ed."
Moch leaped his his feet,
roaring: "I want the floor! I
want the floor!"
British Minister of State
David Ormsby-Gore, who also
was on his feet trying to get
the floor, moved to the head
of the table as the Communist
group disappeared through
the door, and took over the
chairmanship
Deplore Red Walkout
Chief U. S. delegate Fred
rick M. Eaton, who returned
from Washington with new
American proposals Sunday,
then led off a round of wes
tern speeches deploring tha
Red walkout and warning
that the world would be tha
best judge of the Soviet ac
tion. "This is a bad monment,"
Eaton said. "The Soviets havt
shown their true motives."
Zorin mide his move to
wreck this conference with
the same abruptness and ar
rgance as Soviet Premier Ni
kita Khrushchev wrecked tha
Paris summit meeting in May.
He did so despite the fact
that only moments before to
day's session Eaton had told
the western powers were
about finished with their con
sultations on a new plan and
would try to present it this
week. .
