Expect Increase In Propaganda In Khrushchev Era
Soviet propaganda organs are expected to unleash a new barrage of accusations against the West after the United States and Britain rejected Premier Khrushchev's bid for a summit on disarmament. A coming press campaign will portray Western powers as undermining disarmament at the Geneva conference opening March 14 while U.S. nuclear tests loom. Khrushchev may attend as Pravda sets the anti West tone before Western replies arrive.

Kennedy and Macmillan Handed to Soviet Foreign Ministry
A New York dispatch reports Kennedy and British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan were delivered to the Soviet Foreign Ministry on Wednesday. The piece says American maneuvers reveal insincerity about disarmament talks and Khrushchev may withhold until the last moment before Geneva. It anticipates Khrushchev at Geneva on March 14 with Soviet bloc leaders and possibly neutralist chiefs to present the Kremlin line.
