Pressure GENEVA seeks moratorium on nuclear tests
At the 17 nation disarmament conference pressure mounts for a pause in atmospheric nuclear tests before the United States resumes next month. Sensing a possible breakthrough, menon proposed nonaligned detection stations and Nehru argued they would improve discovery chances. De Gaulle refused to send French delegates, limiting talks to the four nuclear powers. Meanwhile Rusk and Gromyko held talks on Berlin with faint hopes for easing Western‑Soviet tensions.

Publication of World War II papers raises Formosa worries
A 901 page collection includes a 1943 Roosevelt mission report by Maj. Gen. Patrick J. Hurley after talks with Chiang Kai-shek and joint U.S. Chinese leaders. Publication faced five year delay over possible offense to Chiang's regime on Formosa where nationalist leaders weigh comeback against Communists. U.S. Ambassador Drumright resigns, possibly due to release opposition. Hurley notes Chiang favored democracy but sought postwar internal supremacy to defeat Japan. Hurley’s name appears in McCarthy hearings over withheld aid and China stance.
