Nassau Conference
Kennedy Appears To
lave Balanced Scales
Nassau - (UPD - President
Kennedy appears to have
skillfully brought British
American diplomatic prep
surcs into approximate bal
ance to provide a more realis
tic background for his global
cold war strategy review with
Prime Minister Macmillan.
Hie President accomplish
ed this even before today's
formal sessions began. He had
his aides counter British
criticism of the U.S. decision
to drop the Skybolt program
by spreading the word that
the United States was greatly
disturbed by the Macmillan
government's failure to sup
port the American position on
other equally or more impor
tant matters.
Ask Stronger Support
American officials made It
clear Kennedy would press
Macmillan for much stronger
British support of United Na
tions efforts to unify the Con
go, where the U.S. govern
ment fears the Soviet Union
may move in to take advan
tage of growing chaos.
U. S. officials dramatized
this by disclosing that Ken-

ncdy was sending a high level
military mission to the Congo
at once to analyze the situ
ation.
Macmillan came here for
his Lyford Cay conference
backed by a barrage of British
charges that the United States
was reneging on moral com.
mitments by its decision to
drop the Skybolt program, on
which London was counting
to maintain its posture as a
nuclear power.
Believed on Defensive
London officials obviously
felt they had Kennedy on the
defensive in public view, with
a consequent strengthening of
Macmillan' bargaining pow
er.
American officials here felt
the conference was about to
open on a lopsided basis
which might prevent sober
and balanced assessment of
the wide variety of problems
requiring closest Anglo-American
collaboration.
They spread the word
among newsmen that Ken
nedy had his own complaints
and at the same time they
flatly denied that the United
States ever had promised un
conditionally to continue the
Skybolt program if it did not
appear worthwhile.
Sincerity Not Licking
This British-American dip
lomatic jockeying was not in
terpreted as indicating any
cynicism or lack of sincerity
on either side. It merely rep
resented Kennedy's applica
tion of an international scale
of his admitted political skill
to get the picture into focus
and prevent the conference
from degenerating-at least in
the public eye-into a Washington-London
wrangle over
Skybolt.
Actually, the shape of possi
ble compromises on both the
Skybolt and the Congo seem
to be emerging and this will
permit Kennedy and Macmil
lan to tackle the rest of their
agenda on a more even keel.

Petition for Fire
District Submitted
The Jackson county court
read petitions today request
ing a public hearing on the
proposed Evans Valley Rural
Fire Protection district, but
no action was taken.
The petitions contained S56
signatures. However, a check
by the assessor s office show
ed only 179 signatures are
from property owners. The
law requires that 25 per cent
of the property owners within
the fire district boundaries
sign petitions or 200, which
ever is the smaller number.
The proposed district would
include 200 residents and
about 45 square miles. Al
though an Evans Valley rural
volunteer fire department is
now in operation, the propos
al would set up a district
with a board of directors em
powered to levy a tax.
Donations were made last
May. A fire truck was pur
chased and a fire station start
ed. Last September it was
estimated the rural depart
ment has saved three or four
homes and some $30,000
worth of property since its
formation.
