The plan was laid before the : UN disarmament subcommittee | and was plugged heavily by | Moscow radio. The U.S. delegation declined tdj comment, and other subcommit-! tee members reacted variously. Some thought the Soviet plan’ slightly encouraging. Other re-! action was unfavorable. In Washington, White House secretary James C. Hagerty de clined to comment on the pro posal. In return for Soviet photo reconnaissance of Alaska and an area that might embrace the 22 states west of the Mis sissippi River, the Russians of fered to open up about one third of the Soviet Union. The Russian area would em-[ brace eastern Siberia, an unspeci-j fied area in Europe, the Kam-j chatka Peninsula west of the! Aleutian Islands, and Sakhalin,! the big island north of Japan. But apparently the heart of Eu ropean Russia including Moscow would not be included. Diplomatic quarters calculated the Russians wanted to photo graph everything west of New Orleans and including Chicago.
