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.
