KOtfiedy. Agrees
To Cuban Talks
UNITED NATIONS, , N.Y.
—President' Kennedy agreed .yes
terday to preliminary talks pro
posed by acting Secretary-Gen
eral U .Thant on ending. the
U.S.-Soviet crisis over Cuba. But
Thant failed to win • any U.S.
commitment on a temporary end
to the naval arms blockade on
Cuba during such negotiations.

nounced he would agree to a
temporary simultaneous suspen
sion of Soviet arms shipments
and the blockade as proposed by
Thant.
Replies of the world leaders
were read to the U.N. Security
Council by U.S. Ambassador Ad
lai E. Stevenson and Soviet Dep
tity Foreign Minister Valerian A.
Zorin.•
Their speeches contained angry
charges and countercharges.
•At one . ,point Stevenson de
manded a outright reply from
Zorin on whether the Soviet tin
ion had stationed long and short
range missiles in Cuba.
HE CHALLENGED Zorin to
reply and when told by the Rus
sians he would have to wait, Ste
venson asserted:
"I am read% to wait , until hell
freezes. over. •
Moving swiftly in view of the
replies, the acting Secretaryen
eral announced he would begin
private negotiations with the par
ties concerned this morning.
He said at the outset he would

mation has not yet been corq

by next week.
ONE OF the e problems to be
solved in connection with the
shekters is that of who would go

where he wants' to go, he said,
-the results may be chaotic. On
the other hand, if individuals are

meet separately with the repre
sentatives of the United States,
the Soviet Union and Cuba.
The council agreed to suspend
the debate indefinitely- for the
duration of the negotiations.
KENNEDY MADE clear in the
statement read to; the council' by
Stevenson that the United. States
regarded the secret introduction
of offensive weapons into Cuba
as the No. 1 issue in the crisis.
The President told Thant "the
answer lies in the removal of
such weapons."
A White House official under
scored this by announcing in
Washirigton that the Kennedy of
fer to explore possibilities of a
peaceful settlement did not signal
any suspension of the blockade.
Kennedy merely took note that
Thant "made certain suggestions
1,425 Coeds Re
- Approximately . 1,425 women
have registered for formal sorority

rush chairman, said last night
All women who registered will
meet Thursday rn groups of 30
with their rush guides.
ANY COED who has not turned
in her registration card Must re
turn it to the Panhellenic office
in 129 Grange to receive a group
and invited preliminary talks to
determine whether satisfactory
arrangements can be wsured."
'Lorin rend the reply from
Khrushchev in which the Soviet
leader said he welcomed the see-,
retary-general's initiative.
Khrushchev said he understood
Thant's concern "since the Soviet
-government also considers, this
situation as highly dangerous and
requiring an immediate interfer
ence by the United Nations.
He added that Stevenson "is
ready to discuss promptly these
arrangements with you."
"I am informing you that I
agree with your proposal which
meets the interests of peace."
STEVENSON WAS stung by
charges from Zarin that Kennedy
had failed to inform Soviet For
eign Minister Andrei - Gromyko in
their talks in Washington a week
ago that the United. States had
proof of Soviet offensive weapons
in Cuba.
"Pll tell you why—because we
were assembling the evidence,"
Stevenson told Zorin.
"We wanted to see how far a
Soviet official could go in per
fidy."
At another point Stevenson de
nied a contention by Zorin that
the U.S. position had changed on
Cuba- because the United States
lacked proof of .its charges.
"We have the proof and will
show it to you." he said.
"Let me say something else:
These weapons must be taken out
of Cuba."
Then Stevenson displayed to
the council pictures he said were
taken of launching sites for intitr
mediate range missiles.
