Taylor Reports
Viet Nam Set-up
Looks Hopeful
BANGKOK, Thailand (,P)—Gen.
Maxwell D. Taylor brought his
fact-finding mission to Thailand
yesterday and declared he is
"quite encouraged" about South
Viet Nam's chances of heating
down the Communist threat in
that pro-Western, country.
President Kennedy's special
military adviser flew here from
Saigon for two days of talks with
Marshal. Sarit Thanarat, premier
of Western-allied Thailand, and
with officials of the Southeast.
Asia Treat y Organization—
SEATO.
Taylor is expected to brief
Sarit today on his firsthand
look at the trouble in South
Viet Nam, where President Ngo ,
Dinh Diem's government is sore
ly pressed by the Communist I
Viet Cong guerrillas.
Taylor told newsmen SEATO
has a role to play in the Viet
namese crisis. because, like the
United States, it is a "friend" of
Viet Nam. There has been specu
lation that if the United States
decides to send troops to bolster
South Viet Nam's army it would
prefer to send them as part of a
SEATO force.

argued with the border guards,
the U.S. commandant in Berlin,
Maj. Cen. Albert Watson 11, drove
past them into East Berlin unmo
lested to see the Soviet comman
dant, Col. Andrei I. Solovyev.
Watson spent two hours at the So
viet headquarters in the East Ber
lin suburb of Karlshorst.
The U.S. command later an
nounced that Watson warned So
lovyev of the serious consequenc
es of the "illegal and unaccept-'
able" Communist restrictions on .
Allied access to East Berlin.

mittee approved an eight-nation
resolution recommending that the
U.N. General Assembly confront
MOscow with a solemn appeal to
refrain from testing the big bomb
scheduled before the end of this
month.
The action capped a day in
which the Soviet bloc aided by
some Asia n-African nations
tried desperately to plunge the
committee into procedural
wrangles that would delay ac
tion.
But the committee chairman,
Mario Amadeo of Argentina, a
skillful lawyer-diplomat, guided
the committee to the voting stage
despite repeated attacks from the
Communist bloc.
The Soviet bloc was rebuffed
in two last-minute attempts to
avert a vote.
They first tried to have the
committee adjourned, and then
to prevent a closure of debate
which paved the way for an im
mediate vote.
The General Assembly will
meet tomorrow morning. Den
mark proposed arrangements be
made to get quick ratification of
the committee action at that time.

Nuclear Testing
For Peaceful Use
WASHINGTON (iP)— Presi
dent Kennedy gave the go
ahead yesterday for a long
planned underground
,nuclear
explosion in the salt beds of
New Mexico to launch a new
search for peaceful uses of atomic
power.
The pioneer explosion, about 25
miles southeast of Carlsbad, prob
ably will take place during the
second week of December, the
Atomic Energy Commission said.
It will be in a salt shaft, some
1,200 feet below the surface, that
cost about $1 million to dig over
the past year.
The total cost of the test was
put at $5.5 million.
The power of the explosion.
the AEC said, will be five kilo
tens—equal to the power of
5,000 tons of TNT and about
one-fourth that of the atomic
bombs dropped on Japan in
World War IL Originally, the
AEC had planned a 10-kiloton
shot.
Although only this single ex
plosion was approved by the
President, it is expected to pro
vide guideposts for a myriad of
other proposals for peaceful uses
of the atom—some in._ advanced
stages, others merely dreams.
Highest Cost of Living
Reported in September
WASHINGTON (AP) A greater
than expected increase in clothing
prices shoved the nation's Sep
tember living cost level to the
highest point ever reached.
