Neither the White House nor the State Department would spec ulate on the nature of the com munication, presumably from the Kremlin. Nor was there any hint from the Soviet Embassy as to the contents of the message. Jt could, of course, deal with any of the numerous issues be tween this nation and the Soviet Union—the Geneva Laos confer ence or the Geneva nuclear test ban talks, for example. However, coming as it does on the heels of news that Kennedy is considering a face -to- face mooting, Menshi kov’s requ es 1 naturally stirred surmise that the So v i e t premier was taking some notice of the pos- sibilily of a first meeting with the U.S. President. ■ Menshikov will be accompanied to the White John F. Kennedy House by Undersecretary of Stale Chester Bowies, and the visit will come a fovv hours before Ken nedy leaves for Canada on his first state visit as President to a foreign capital. The Soviet request came while some of Kennedy's advisers were running up caution signals about pressing for a Kennedy- Khrushchev meeting. The danger of. building false public hopes for dramatic strides toward peaceful understanding looms large among the obstacles. Kennedy is interested in a face-to-face meeting with Soviet Premier Khrushchev, and active consideration is being given to a get-together in a neutral Euro pean capital early next month. While no firm position has been taken, it was reported from Ken nedy's Palm Beach, Fla., head quarters over the weekend that a [decision may be reached within !a week. Kennedy relumed to Washing ton late yesterday. Today he goes to Ottawa for a two-day visit, then on May 31 he flies to Paris for three days of talks with French President Charles de Gaulle. It would be at the conclusion of the Paris visit that Kennedy might go on to Stockholm or Vienna for an informal meeting with Khrushchev. to Canada Today have arranqed private discus sions for 2'/a hours tomorrow morning.

Thus the prosecu tion strove to rip away the Ges tapo colonel’s defense that he had to obey orders or be shot, Justice Michael A. Musman no of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, an authority on the exter mination campaign, testified that such Nazi bigwigs as Hermann Goering and Joachim von Ribben trop had told him that Eichmann was given vast powers by. Hitler. The justice had interrogated them for the U.S. Navy during the Nuernberg trial of major Nazi leaders in 1945-1946. Musmanno was questioned particularly by the prosecution as to whether Eichmann could have disobeyed orders from superiors to ship Jews off to Eu rope's death camps in World War 11. The prosecution first recalled that Eichmann in pretrial ques tioning had said: "Well, what could I have done? I had orders front my superiors. If 1 had not executed them, I would have been shot.” Musmanno testified that many Nazis were sent back home who said they could'not take part in! the pogroms. Musmanno testified that in a postwar interrogation. SS Elite Guard intelligence chief Walter Schellenberg had told him that people who said they could not go along with an extermination or |der were sent home "because they were in the way of others who |were perfectly ready, willing and jable to carry out Hitler's orders."
