Soviet Denounces
Ex-Party Leaders
MOSCOW (i 1)) Premier
Khrushchev yesterday denounced
former President Klementi Y.
Voroshilov as a leader of the anti
party group which fought efforts
to downgrade Joseph Stalin and
restore democracy to the Com
munist party.
It was the first time the 80-year
old elder statesman of the party
has been so assailed, and it caused
amazement among delegates at
the opening session of the _"2nd
congress of the Communist party.
Khrushchev charged Voroshilov
was "responsible for many acts
of repression against members of
the Communist party and of the
Young Communist League."
He said VoroshiloV had joined
in a struggle to keep repressive
measures operating as they were
in Stalin's day and tried to pre
vent improvements in the well
being of the Soviet people.
Voroshilov, a dolegate, was
elected to the Pre•iidium of the
congress just yesterday.
Former premier' Nikolai Bul
ganin was also criticized.

Under this arrangement the four
would come from the United
States, the Soviet Union, Africa
and Latin America. Asia would
be represented by Ambassador
U Thant of Burma, who has been
accepted by both the United States
and the Soviet Union as a candi
date for acting secretary-general.
This would mean that for the
first time Western Europe would
not be represented in the U.N.
top executive machinery.
Delegates from Western Europe
met in private session to consider
the most forceful way of present
ing their views to the U.S. dele
gation, headed by Ambassador
Adlid E. Stevenson.
Afterward, a spokesman for the
group declared it would not ac
cept any arrangement that failed
to give Western Europe "its right
ful place" in the Secrelariat in
accord with the U.N charter.
Soviet Deputy Foreign Minis
ter Valerian A. Zorin was re
ported eager for another meet
ing with Stevenson on the issue,
but U.S. sources said none had
been arranged.
Diplomats expressed concern
that the prolonged U.S.-Soviet ne
gotiations on a secretary-general
might now end up in a hopeless
deadlock.
In that event the United States
is expected to go directly to the
U.N. General Assembly and pro
pose that it take action to fill
temporarily the vacancy left by
the death of Dag Hammarskjold
in a plane crash in Africa last
month.
But even U.S. sources conceded
that it would be extremely dif
ficult to find a candidate who
would take the job without agree
ment between the United States
and the Soviet Union.
Governor Refuses
Draft Possibility
For Senate Race
HARRISBURG (IP)—Gov. Law
rence yesterday ruled out the pos
sibility of his accepting a draft to
run against U.S. Sen. Joseph Clarl•:
in next year's primary.
Lawrence previously said he
was not a candidate for Clark's
senate seat. However, he had not
ruled out ► draft possibility.
Monday he issued a flat "no"
when asked if he would accept a
draft.
"I haven't the remotest idea
just what I'll do," Lawrence told
a special news conference for
student reporters from 32 col
leees. "I'll be active in some
thing."
The governor discounted the ef
fect of the upcoming municipal
and court elections on the 1962
congressional and gubernatorial
elections.
The one and one-half hour con
ference was one of the longest the
governor ever conducted.

Plans to Return
From Lagos Post
LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) Mar
gery Michelmore, the central
figure in the Peace Corps post
card incident, telephoned her
parents yesterday she was fly
ing home.
The 23-year-old volunteer from
Foxboro, Mass., whose criticism
of Nigerian living conditions
brought student demands for ex
pulsion of all 37 members of the
corps in this Negro nation, said
she planned to arrive in New
York tomorrow.
The criticism was in a postcard
she intended to mail to an Ameri
can friend.
The Lagos Morning Post, organ
of the federal government, said
it was unfortunate President Ken
nedy':; Peace Corps project has
had "a setback as rude and sud
den as that which cropped up
over the weekend."
The anger of students at the
University College of Madan,
where the Americans are in train
ing for teaching assignments, was
described as natural and legiti
mate. But they were urged not to
take too emotional a view.
Miss Michelmore has offered to
,resign from the Peace Corps.
Her posctard was dropped near
the campus. A Nigerian student
who found it, instead of return
ing it to her, gave it to student
leaders for publication.

Proposal
ALSO:
No U.S. Statement
: , oven on K's Talk
WASHINGTON (VP) The U.S. government decided
yesterday to take a careful look at Soviet Premier Khrush
chev's major policy speech—especially his qualified offer to
lift his Berlin crisis deadline—before judging whether he has
improved the prospects for peace.
White House press secretary Pierre Salinger said Presi
dent Kennedy would have no
immediate comment on Khrush
chev's 6-hour and 20-minute ora
tion to the 22nd Soviet Commu
nist party Congress in Moscow.
At the State Department, press
officer Lincoln White put off any
assessment until today, when
Secretary of State Dean Rusk has
a news conference
A task force of experts at the
State Department scrutinized
all available textual matter in
an intensive effort to weigh the
significance of what Khrush
chev said and what he left
out.
Among the experts was Llewel
lyn Thompson, U.S. ambassador to
Moscow, who is in her second
week of consultations here.
There was a cautiously favor
able initial reaction to Khrush
chev's offer not to go through
with his proposed peace treaty
with Communist East Germany
by Dec. 31, a deadline he has
threatened in the past. But
enthusiasm was restrained by an
"if" tossed in by the Soviet boss.
•
Khrushchen said the time
limit would not be so impor
tant "if the Western powers dis
played readiness to settle the
German problem." Khrushchev
did not specify what he meant.
The question of what words
mean has figured importantly in
the Berlin argument. For in
stance, Khrushchev declared that
his German plan would include
a "free city" status for West
Berlin.
U.S. diplomats welcomed Khru
schev's statement that the West
ern powers were displaying under
standing of the German problem
and seeking a mutual acceptable
solution. They saw this as evi
dence of a Moscow willingness to
negotiate.
But Khrushchev also announced
the Soviets would explode a 50-
megaton bomb at the end of this
month.

Dentist Attacks
'Crest' Support
PHILADELPHIA (/P) A past
president of the American Dental
Association yesterday demanded
immediate removal of the group's
"recognition, endorsement, accept
ance, whatever you call it" of
Crest toothpaste as effective
against decay.
Dr. William R. Alstadt of Little
Rock, Ark., supporting a resolu
tion, asserted the issue has caus
ed great disunity among Ameri
ca's dentists and tarnished the
organization's reputation for prod
uct impartiality.
Fourteen months ago the ADA's
council on dental therapeutics
gave Crest, manufactured by
Proctor and Gamble, a "B" clas
sification.
This means a scientific study
shows insufficient evidence to jus
tify full acceptance, but finds
"there is reasonable evidence of
usefulness and safety" as an anti
caries dentifrice.
Crest advertisements note that
ADA recognition, which Dr. Al
stadt told a committee meeting
at the ADA's 102nd annual con
vention "actually means approv
al to the public, nothing else but."
He supported a resolution that
would eliminate the group B rat
ing saying, "we either are going
to endorse a product or we are
not going to endorse the product.
It is as simple as that,"
