Per baps they target the soviet threats of last autumn and their arbitrary rejection of All appeals and prop Halk. But Thane free people who value their Freedom of Security. Will i am confident want the United states to do whatever it must do to ,4etcr the threat of i have no doubt that most four friends. Have shared my in Hope that we would never pad it necessary to test again and my own belief that in the Jeng run the Only real Security this age of nuclear peril rests in armament but in dts Arma but x am equally certain that they would insist on our test ing once that is deemed necessary to protect free world Security. The leaders of the soviet Union Are also watching this decision. Should we fall to follow the Dic tates of our own Security they will Chalk it up not to Goodwill but to a failure of will not to our Confidence in Western Supe Concrete plans for breakthrough to peace priority but to our fear of world opinion the very world opinion for which they showed such con  could Well be encouraged by such signs of weakness to see another period of no testing with out controls another Opportunity for stifling our Progress while secretly preparing. For the new test series which might alter the balance of Power. With such a one sided advantage Why would they change their strategy. And Why would they Ever consider accepting ban on 2 magazines leads to school Row Al Segundo Calls Cap a dispute Over a classroom ban on two magazines has been disclosed Here. The new Republic and the reporter were banned from class rooms at e Segundo High school last september by administrative order. Teachers Lawrence Cummings and Carroll f. Edwards said they made the Issue Public after too Long a delay in getting an answer from the proper officials. School supt Warren f. Macqueen recommended that Only time and Newsweek be used in classrooms. He suggested other Maga Zines including the reporter and the new Republic be made Avail Able to students in the school Library with teachers  Board adopted his recommendation. Camping chairman of the school s social studies department Ald he and other interested teachers have been trying since september for an answer to Why the magazines were not permitted in the classroom and. We still Don t have the answer except that we understand some parents did not care for some of the Contentsa True test ban or Mutual disarmament our reasons for testing and our peaceful intentions Are Clear so Clear that even the soviets could not objectively regard our resumption of tests following their resumption of tests As pro Vocative or preparatory for War. On the con Rory it is my Hope that the prospects for peace Niny actually be strengthened by this decision once the soviet leaders realize Flint the West will no longer stand still negotiating in Good Faith while they reject inspection and Are free to prepare further tests. As new disarmament talks approach the Basic lesson of some three years and 353 negotiating sessions at Geneva is this that the soviets will not agree to an effective ban on nuclear tests is Long As a new series of offers and prolonged negotiations or a new inspected moratorium or a new agreement without controls would enable them once again to prevent the West from testing while they prepare in  inasmuch As this Choice is now no longer open to them let us Hope that they will take a different attitude on Banning nuclear tests. If the soviet should change their position we will have an Opportunity to learn it immediately. On the 14th of starch in Geneva Switzerland a new 18 Power conference on disarm a will begin. It is the constructive possibilities of that conference and no the testing of new destructive weapons on which rest the Hopes of All Mankind. However dim those Hopes May sometimes seem they can never be abandoned. The United states will offer at the Geneva conference not in the Advance expectation they will be rejected and not merely Tor Pur poses of propaganda a series of on Crete plans for a major break through to Peacethey Wilt include specific proposals for fair and enforceable agreement to halt the production of fission Noble materials and nuclear weapons and their Transfer to other nations to convert them from weapon stockpiles to peace Able uses to destroy the warheads and the delivery systems that threaten Man s existence to Check the dangers of Surprise and Acci dental attack to Reserve outer space for peaceful use and progressively to reduce All armed forces in such a Way As ultimately to remove forever nil threats and thoughts of War. To shall in association with the United kingdom present once again our proposals for a separate comprehensive treats with appropriate arrangements for detection and verification to halt permanently the testing of All nuclear weapons. The essential arguments and facts relating to such a treaty Are Well known to the soviet Union. There is no need for further repetition propaganda or delay. Our negotiators will be ready to talk about this treaty even before the conference begins on March 14thand they will be ready to sign Well before the Date on which our Foremost aim is the control of Force our tests Are ready to begin. If the soviet Union should now be Wil Ling to accept such a treaty sign it before the latter part of april and apply it immediately if All testing can thus be actually halted then the nuclear arms race would be slowed Down at last the Security of the United states and its ability to meet its commit ments would be safeguarded and there would be no need for our tests to begin. But this must be a fully effective treaty. We know enough no about broken negotiations secret preparations and the advantages gained from a Long test series never to offer again an Unin spec Ted moratorium. In Short in the absence of a firm agreement that would Hal nuclear Testa by the latter part of april we shall go ahead with our talks striving for some new Avenue of agreement but we shall also go ahead with oar tests. If on the other hand the soviet Union should accept such a treaty in the opening months of talks that single step would be a Monu mental step toward peace and both prime minister Harold Mac Millan and i would think it fitting to meet chairman Khrushchev at Geneva to sign the final pact in the last analysis it is the leaders of the soviet Union who must Bear the heavy responsibility of choosing in the weeks that tie ahead whether we proceed with these Steps or proceed with new tests. If they Are convinced that their interest can no longer be served by the present course of events it is my fervent Hope that they will agree to an effective treaty. But if they persist in rejecting All Means of True inspection then we shall be left no Choice but to keep our own defensive Arsenal adequate for the Security of ail free men. It is our Hope and prayer that these grim unwelcome tests will never have to be made that these deadly weapons will never have to be fired and that our preparations for War will bring us the preservation of peace. Our fore most aim is the control of Force not the Pursuit of Force. In a world made Safe for Mankind
