U N Says Soviet Disarmament Proposals Open Discussion
The United States indicated in the U N General Assembly that Soviet disarmament proposals appear to open room for further talks and will be clarified with elaboration. Ambassador James J. Wadsworth said the plan is an important step but leaves obstacles, and the U S is prepared to back reviving the five member disarmament subcommittee to break the deadlock. Vishinsky argued for delaying an immediate ban, proposing staged arms limits starting with conventional forces and reserving atomic bans for a second phase after a control body is formed under the Security Council.
