document Urges U.S. To Supply Giiosrillas To Combat Communism Washington - (DPO A top Army officer hu circulated propoMl that the United State train and supply for eign guerrilla forces designed to overthrow Communist re gime in Eastern Europe and elsewhere. - "The Soviets apparently do not fear that they will start general war when they assist Communist rebels in Laos," th . document said. "Why should we fear general war ui providing assistance to free dom fighters in Eastern Eu rnnA? Tha neoDle are on our side here. We could do this overtly." , Lt. Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau, Army research and develop ment chief, has circulated the paper to a number of senior officers. He told them It .had. "no official standing as doctrine,'.'. but should ... be studied In ' connection with Army efforts to strengthen guerrilla warfare capabilities.

Kennedy said in his budget message that "we need a greater ability to deal with guerrilla forces, in surrections and subversion." The President said Ameri cans must help train friendly local forces to combat guer rilla bands. ; But proposals in the "unof ficial" Army document ap peared 'to go much further. They were greeted today only by loud silence In the De fense Department's : upper reaches. V .

Willamette Valley Lumber Co, earlier announced it will construct a $250,000 addition to Its sheathing mill at Dallas. An additional 30 men will be employed.

"I still see no reason why we should accept a tyrant govern ment in Laos, Belgian Congo, o rany Latin American coun try. "If the Communists can af ford a million dollars a year on propaganda alone in Latin America and support a Com munist government (apparent ly Cuba) In our backyard, we can support free governments in Eastern Europe or any other area dominated by Commu nists . . We can provide military assistance to an anti Communist revolution."

(UPI Telephoto) Brevity Record . Set at Meeting For Nuclear Ban Geneva (UPD The United States, Britain and Russia to day broke all records for brevity at the nuclear test ban talks by meeting for only three minutes., : U.S. Ambassador Arthur H. Dean opened the meeting at precisely 3 p.m. and asked if anybody wanted the floor. There was no answer. . Dean then, proposed that they,. , adjopt .the traditional communique: "The meeting discussed the documents and proposals be fore the conference." Today's 285tb meeting broke the. four-minute, record set by the 175th meeting.. After the session, , Soviet delegate Semyon K. Ksarapk in tried to shrug off any re sponsibility for the new rec ord' by saying, "this was" not a record-breaking meeting." Informed sources said the United States and Britain are prepared to wait only a short while longer for the next So viet move in the current talks. ' ,v The Western negotiators feel they .clearly have the Soviets on the defensive. U.S. diplomats report that almost for . the first time since the conference began 2Vi years ago, the American position is getting favorable press com ment even in most of the neu tral countries such as India. The Americans,' at least, are convinced there is little point to continuing the talks here as long as the Soviets main tain their demand of March 21 for an absolute right of veto over the most minute ac tions of a control organization to police a nuclear test ban. But President Kennedy's administration has' been re luctant to break off the. talks until the U.S. . case was fully explained to the newer gov ernments in Africa and Asia.
