New Meeting
Desire Hinted
LONDON 'UP) Russian leaders
hope to enlist Prime Minister
Anthony Eden's support for a new
"Summit" conference with the
United States when they visit here
in April, it was reported today.
Diplomatic dispatches from Mos
cow said Communist boss N. s.
Khrushchev and, Premier N. A.
Bulganin also will make a firm
bid for a "treaty of friendship and
trade" with Britain.
Official sources said the Soviet
rulers will find Eden fully pre
pared to meet their new diplomat
ic offensive.
The Prime Minister and Presi
dent Elsenhower agreed at their
meeting in Washington earlier this
month on means of meeting any
new "divide and conquer" ap
proach from the Russians.
They made it clear that Britain
will make no deals during the
Khrushchev- Bulganin visit that
might weaken Anglo - American
unity.
Observers here said Foreign
Minister V.M. Molotov's crvotlc
week-end reference to "new oppor
tunities tor oetter understanding"
probably foretokens a' new at
tempt to soften up the Western
anti-Communist aliimmcnt.
They said the "friendship and
trade" proposal is a substitute for
the non-aggression pacts Russia
offered the United States, Britain
ana nance earner mis mon h
which were firmly rejected by the
west.
Adenauer
Warns Free
Demo Pary
BONN, Germany M -Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer threatened the
rebellious free Democratic party
last night with oaster from his
Kovcrnment coalition in retaliation
for the humiliating defeat they
handed him In West Germany's
richest state.
The I'itjhiiht Free Democrats
teamed up with the opposition
Socialists in the rich Ruhr indus
trial state of North Rhine-Westphalia
to unseat Premier Kail
Arnold, one of Adenauer's chief
lieuteuarts. The vote on a non
confidence motion yesterday was
102-96.
Socialist Fritz Steinhoff replaced
Arnold, a founder of the Christian
Democratic party.
The tight-lipped old Chancellor
told the German Press Club last
night it appeared impossible tha:,
his Christum Democrats could con
tinue to cooperate on a national
level with a party opposing him on
a state level. He said his party's
national committee would examine
the "impossible situation' Friday.
Leaders of the Socialist-Free
Democrat alliance in the Ruhr
said they would expand their cam
paign to end what they termed
Adenauer's one-party domination
of West Germany. Steinhoff said
similar alliances might be formed
to topple Christian Democrats iu
other states.
The defeat cost Adenauer his
absolute two-thirds majority in the
Bundesrat, upper house of Parlia-1
ment. It reduced from 26 to 21 his
iron-clad voting strength in the 38
member house, elected by parlia
ments of the nine states of West
Germany.
But he retains a bare two-thirds
majority on foreign policy and de
fense matters. The five represen
tatives from Bavaria, controlled
by an opposition coalition, are
pledged to support him In those two
key policy fields.
The rising challenge to Aden
auer's control comes as his gov
ernment is preparing to push
through new legislation to fulfill
West Germany's pledge to raise a
500,000-man force for the North !
Atlantic Alliance. The North Rhine-
Westphalia upset did not affect
Adenauer's two-thirds control of
lower-house Bundestag, but some !
of the rearmament bills must pass;
the upper house by the same ma-:
joiity to be constitutional. j

office of the department store
owned by Flowers. A pistol later
was round in Brewer a pocket,
Land said.
Land quoted Flowers as admit

Brewer.
Brewer had "threatened to get"
Flowers shortly before he entered
Flowers office in the rear of the
VitB Department Store, the solici
tor general said.
Land said apparently there was
no connection between the slayint;
and any activity of the National
Awn. for the Advancement of
Colored People, In which Brewer i
was a leader.

Ing from the bus boycott.
The Rev. Mr. Abernathy said
after the meeting, from which
newsmen were barred, that Ne
groes would gain virtually no con
cessions and would have to "return
to the buses with Increased fares
besides (the single fare rote has
eone up from 10 to IS cents during

U weeks In the cold and rain. Now
the weather Is warming up. There
fore, we will walk on until some
better proposals are forthcoming
from our city fathers."
At the outset, the Negroes asked
for "courtesy'- from bus drivers;
"Ilrst come, first served" ar
rangement with Negroes sealed
from the rear toward the front.
and employment of Negro drivers
routes serving predominantly
Negro areas.
The protest against segregated
bus transportation began Dec. 5
after a Negro woman. Mrs. Rosa
Parks, was nrrested and fined $14
for refusing to move to the colored
section of a bus. City and state
laws require separate facilities on
all public transportation. i

Defense Shows Hew Missiles
WASHINGTON lUPl The pub
lic got a look today at the world'.f
first known intercontinental guid
ed missile a pilotless U.S. bomb
er that can pack an atomic war
head. The public also got a look at
U.S. 60-foot rocket from which a
1.500-mile Intermediate ballistio
missile is being developed.
The guided missile the Air
Force's Snark can travel 5,000
miles at about 600 miles an hour.
II automatically navigates by the
stars.
The rocket the Army's red
stone is a ballistic missile de
signed to strike targets at 200
miles range. It travels at super
sonic speed.
The Defense Department Mon
day released pictures of the Snark
and the Redstone as controversy
over how the U.S. missile pro
gram compares with Russia's con
tinued unabated.
The Redstone, a derivative of
the German World War II V2 and
developed at Redstone Arsenal,
Ala., by German scientists. Is con
sidered the prototype for the forlh
ccmine Army-Navy mid-range, or
1.500-uiile, missile.
The Air Force also is working
on a mid-range ballistic missile.
The pictures revealed that the
Redstone is filled with Its liquid
piopellant and given service
checks in a unique structure more
than 100 feet tall.
The rocket Is placed upright In
the serving structure, which is lo
cated at the Missile Test Center
at Patrick Air Force Base. Fla.,
during the delicate fueling opera
tion, the structure can be rolled
away from the missile if anythipg
goes wrong.
