West Sets New Campaign To Snap Secrecy Screen WASHINGTON (AP) - The Western powers expect to mount a new campaign this spring to break down Soviet secrecy bar riers as an essential step toward an arms control agreement. The importance of an inter national inspection system which would operate throughout the So viet Union and keep check on its armed forces was heavily empha sized anew Thursday in a state ment here on the projected Soviet military manpower cut. The Soviet Union and the West ern powers will resume disarma ment negotiations at Geneva on March 15, meeting as members of a 10-nation committee equally divided between Communists and Film Studio Pacifies All HELENA, Mont. (AP) - II Metro-Goldwyn Mayer wants to make everybody happy, the actors in a proposed movie about Chief Joseph will see a big chunk of the Pacific Northwest. To meet its own announced plans and the objections of vari ous governors and such, MGM will have to shoot scenes in four states. The company announced recent ly it planned to film the life of the famed Nez Perce leader in Washington. Hold it, said Gov. Mark Hat field of Oregon, Joseph was an Orgonian and the movie ought to be made down Oregon way. And, said Gov. Robert E. Smylie of Idaho, Joseph spent a lot of time in the Gem State, also. Washing ton, indeed! Thursday, Montana got into the act. Joseph's most famous ex ploit, said the State Board of Ex aminers, was his 2,000-mile flight from the U. S. Army . . . across Montana. the Western Allies. Within two sveeks the United States is expected to begin con sultations with Britain, France and other Western members of the group on what Allied policy should be. The chief element is sure to be a requirement for a vast system of international inspectors operating behind the Iron Curtain as well as within the borders of Free nations. This essential condition laid down by the Western nations in the past has been the chiel obstacle to reaching a disarma ment agreement with the Soviet Union. But the Western govern ments have insisted that an agree ment which was not safeguarded by a thoroughgoing control opera tion would be worse than useless, since it would create a serious danger of cheating. This whole critical issue was brought into the spotlight afresh Thursday by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's announce ment that he intends to cut Soviet armed forces by 1,200,000 men without waiting for a disarma ment pact. The State Department, Penta gon and White House found cold comfort in the news. One official said about the most it seemed to mean was that the Soviets at least were not adding manpower. Although Khrushchev presented it as a measure of single handed disarmament, not conditioned on agreement with the West, he made quite clear in other portions of his long speech to the Supreme Soviet that its real significance is some thing different. Its real significance, his words disclosed, is that the Soviet gov ernment is convinced its security is now adequately safeguarded by its huge arsenal of nuclear and rocket weapons. It no longer needs so many men under arms to serve its military objectives. Indeed ex ists here are certain that the Soviet Union needs the men more urgently in industry and agricul ture to produce food, civilian ma chines and consumer goods, and more modern munitions. The cut, assuming it is carried through, will reduce Khrushchev's force in about two years to the present level of the United States force about 2'j million men. In a statement issued through the State Department, the United States said it could take Khrush chev's announcement of a cutback only as a declaration of intent "since there will be no verifiable means of checking any actual re ductions." This is the same reaction that came from the United States in lf)55 when the Soviets announced a cut of 640.000 men; 1056, when they proclaimed a reduction of 1,200.000, and 1058 when they tossed in another 300.000-man cut. The much advertised "Spirit of Camp David" obviously has not changed American skepticism about Soviet behavior in the arms field. The United Slates said the ne. gotiations beginning in March will offer an opportunity "to achieve controlled international measures of disarmament." It declared readiness to go as far as any oth er nation would in agreeing to "safeguarded disarmament." And it put the challenge up to the So viet Union directly by expressing hope that the newly proclaimed manpower cut "is an indication of its willingness" to come to term with the West on an arms reduc tion and control system with a built-in enforcement plan that would substitute confidence (or suspicion in East-West relations.
