Tests; Turns Down Soviet Visit
WASHINGTON, April 25 (JP)—President Dwight D. Eisenhower turned thumbs down
today on any idea of inviting Soviet leaders to the United States and rejected Adlai E.

maximum effort in trying to develop a long-range guided missile—a field in which Steven-

today on his three-week-old UN
mission to pacify the armistice

The United Nations official this
morning had his first talk with
Premier Samir el Rifai. It lasted
2 1 / 2 hours. A communique said
they would meet again tomorrow
morning.
Hain marskjold Criticized
. The Arab press criticized him
for having talked with Israel
leaders in the Israel sector of
Jerusalem last week. The UN
Palestine partition plan of 1947
said the city should be inter

both Israel and Jordan had vio

son has accused the administra
tion of being "dangerously dila
tory."
At a news conference, Eisen
hower also declared that:
1. He sees "no logical reason"
for cutting taxes now—that it
"would not be to the good inter
ests of America," since in this
time of high incomes the govern
ment must be run without g oing
into debt or it never will be.
Must Be Convinced
2. He would "have to be con
vinced" it would be useful for him
to attend a heads of state meet
ing to try to calm explosive unrest
in the Middle East. As always,
though, he said he would meet
anybody practically anywhere if
he thought this .would promote
peace and be in keeping with
America's dignity and selfrespect.
3. Democrats are "perfectly
right" in making him, rather than
members of his Cabinet, a target
for election-year attacks. " I am
the head of the administration,"
he said, "and I have been shot at
before." •
Nixon Still Vague
4. Vice President Richard M.
Nixon has given him no "answer
that I would consider final and
definite" as to whether Nixon
would like second. place on the
GOP ticket again this year. Nixon
was unavairable for reaction.
Politics and foreign affairs
pretty much dominated the news
conference. The tee-off point was
a requestfor an evaluation of a
statement_
- by Soviet leader Nikita
Khrushchev in London that Rus
sia soon will have guided mis
siles, with hydrogen war heads,
capable of hitting any point
,in
the world.
The President said he knew of
no reason why the Russians
"should be making misstatements
in this field" and he certainly
wasn't accusing them of it.

Soviet, British
Leaders End
London Talks
LONDON, April 25 (W)—Soviet
and British leaders ended their
London talks in a somber mood
tonight. But there were indica
tions both sides will hail the con
ference as a limited success to
ward easing world tension.
Premier Nikolai Bulganin and
Communist boss Nikita Khrush
chev tramped grimly out of No.
10 Downing St, after a final
emergency meeting. Prime Min
ister Anthony Eden, standing be
hind them, managed a thin smile.
His deputy, Richard Butler, was
red-faced and looked tense.
A 31-word British communique
rang down the curtain on further
bargaining:
"The final stage of the Anglo-
Soviet discussions was completed
this afternoon. The results will
be announced after the return of
the Soviet leaders from the visit
to Scotland tomorrow eevning."
Word spread in diplomatic cir
cles that the two-power announce
ment will report no sweeping
achievements, but claim advances
in several relatively minor
spheres.
But testy public outbursts by
Khrushchev midway in the visit
had already demonstrated fading
chances for any solid agreement
in the major fields of difference
—the Middle East, German reuni
fication, disarmament and East-
West trade.
Tomorrow they pay a flying
visit to Edinburgh and return in
'conference
evening. They plan a news
'conference Friday morning.
12 Nations Approve
World Atomic Code
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., April 25 (iP)— A worldwide
atomic code to breathe life into President Dwight D. Eisen
hower's atoms-for-peace plan was made public today. The
United States is working for full approval of the program
at a huge conference to be convened here around Sept. 24.
President Eisenhower broached
the idea of using atoms for peace
ful purposes in his speech to the
UN Assembly on Dec. 8, 1953.
He is expected here to make the
opening address at the world con
ference next fall. The Americans
hope the- code will be signed at
the end of that conference and
will be in operation in 1957.
The United States, Russia and
10 other countries approved the
program last Wednesday after
weeks of secret negotiations. It
would create an international
atomic energy agency to see that
peaceful nations around the globe
share benefits of the atomic age.
It contains provisions barring
war-like use of atomic material
pooled with the agency and cre
lates an inspection system to make
this certain.
Fight Looms on China
Despite the usual agreement
among the 12 countries on the
broad outlines of the code, a fight
looms in the conference next fall
on Red China.
James J. Wadsworth. U.S. dele
gate, told reporters the United
States is opposed to giving Red
China a seat and chances of Pei
ping getting a place are remote.
On the other hand, a Soviet ,
spokesman said Russia. backed j
India and Czechoslovakia,
would demand a place for Red
China on the board of governors,
of the proposed agency.
Disagreement Predicted
Besides the coming row on Red
China, the United States and Rus
sia
are likely to differ on finan—
cial aspects of the program. Wads
worth said he believed the scale
of assessments for operating the
agency woh 1 d be roughly the
same as those for the UN. This
would- mean the United States
would pay one-third of the total
a cost and the Russians 15.28 per
'cent

Nixon Manager
WASHINGTON, April 25 UP)—
Murray Chotiner, Vice President
Richard M. Nixon's 1952 national
campaign manager. was told to
day he will be subpoenaed if he
doesn't appear willingly at a Sen
ate investigation of government
clothing contractors.
Chotiner quickly indicated he
might be willing to testify late
next week. He said "It is not
necessary for the Senate Commit..
tee to subpoena me."
Chairman John L. McClellan
(D-Ark) announced that the Sen
ate Investigations subcommittee
would subpoena the Los Angeles
attorney unless he decided to
come to Washington.
In Los Angeles, Chotiner said
he had informed McClellan last
night "that the press of legal
business requires my attention in
California through May 2." He
added:
'I have never refused to ap
pear voluntarily. But I cannot fly
across the country on a moment's
notice."
The subcommittee heard testi
mony yesterday that Chotiner re
ceived a $5OOO fee in 1953 for
representing Herman Kravitz, a
key figure in its search for pos
sible graft and corruption in the
handling of military uniform con
tracts.
