East West disarmament talks open with Soviet blast

Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Valerian Zorin opened new East West talks in Geneva with a sharp attack on aggressive circles in the United States. He accused Americans of sabotaging the Paris summit and hindering peaceful coexistence. A Western official said Khrushchev's rhetoric was echoed without his vehemence. U S Ambassador Eaton urged moving ahead with disarmament measures. The conference resumed in a restrained mood, and Zorin presented Moscow’s revised disarmament plan. Western officials doubt full agreement if Soviets stick to strict main provisions. The Soviets also urged steps to remove means of delivering nuclear weapons and, after disarmament, an international peace force.
