When it first came into being it very likely lacked what we would today call an ocean and an atmosphere These were formed by the gradual outward movement of material as the solid interior settled

peace proposal to be put forth at the Paris talks U.S officials said Nixon and Bruce offered newsmen a few brief remarks that added no new insights into the substance of the U.S position I feel deeply honored at having been given this Bruce said It is one which is foreign to my experience but if I can make any contribution no matter how slight in bringing about a settlement of the difficulties in Southeast Asia I will feel overjoyed The ambassador said he would receive no further questions until after he his new duties in Paris in August Shortly before Nixon disclosed that Bruce would meet

Monday that the nist side might find it to their advantage o negotiate an agreement based on tion proportional to population He estimated the Communist side could muster 20 per cent of the
