NINETY-FIRST YEAR NO. 186 = PRICE TEN CENTS Russ Won't Break With China, Says Khrushchev GENEVA (UPI)—Some officials at the 17-nation disarmament conference said today they think President Johnson’s nuclear freeze proposal may be too ambitious for immediate East-West agreement. The U.S. proposal, presented in detail at the conference Thursday, calls for halting production of all long - range missiles and strategic bombers. Soviet negotiator Semyon K. Tsarapkin immediately rejected the plan as “unacceptable” on the grounds that it would provide ‘‘control without disarmament.” He said it would not bring about the destruction of existing weapons but would give the West a chance to use control measures to spy on the Soviet Union.

United Press International DeGaul le Fine Mediators After Surgery PARIS (UPI) President Charles de Gaulle today underwent a prostate gland operation. The urinary tract surgery on the president took place at the Cochin Hospital in Paris this morning, and afterwards De French Boss Wants Own Atomic Force PARIS (UPI) — President Charles de Gaulle has madeit clear he will not retreat from the ‘“go-it-alone”’ policies he insists are necessary to keep France independent of the United States. In a nationwide radio-television statement Thursday night, De Gaulle emphasized that France wants its own nuclear force because there is no guarantee that U.S. protection would save France in the event of a Soviet attack. The general, continuing his campaign to restore French grandeur, said he is determined to make France a nuclear power along with the United States, Britain and Russa. He said he will beat inflation at home, and will press his $1 billion foreign aid program to Africa, Asia and Latin America. At Odds With Allies De Gaulle’s independent policies, particularly regarding nuclear defense and European integration, often have put the French leader at odds with Washington and other NATO Allies. He has refused to join the U.S.proposed NATO nuclear striking, force, and has blocked Britain from the European Common Market. Many. Frenchmen believed the broadcast was De Gaulle’s entry into the 1965 presidential campaign. Socialist candidate Gaston Defferre, mayor of Marseille, already is campaigning and criticizing some of De Gaulle’s policies. Gaulle’s condition was reported “very satisfactory.” Mae de Gaulle was reported to have been with the president since he entered the hospital Thursday night shortly after the broadcast of a prerecorded radio and television speech he madeto the nation. An official announcement was expected later today — possibly after De Gaulle himself has approvedit. De Gaulle is 73 years old, and prostatic trouble is common in men of his age. Former British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, 70, underwent such a operation last fall, and now fully has recovered. The reported operation on De Gaulle apparently was successful, and the various agencies said it was expected he would remain in the hospital for about 10 days. Chaos Possible France could be in for politi- cal chaos if De Gaulle passed from the scene suddenly. He has united the country around his somewhat mystical approach to a restoration of French “grandeur,” and has effectively muzzled his opposition. But he has resolutely refused to nameor indicate anyone he might favor as successor, a situation that could set off a major political scramble and possibly return France to the instability of the Fourth Republic in which governments rose and fell in dizzying succession. Constitutionally, in the event of De Gaulle’s death, his successor would be Gaston Monnerville, a 67-year-old Negro from French Guiana, who is president of the French Senate. There is no vice president provided for under French law at present. There have been several proposals to establish a vice presidential office, but they have been effectively resisted by De Gaulle himself. HasLittle Stature Monnerville has little stature or following, and long has been on the outs with De Gaulle — who virtually has boycotted The nuclear force and for- him. If Monnerville took over, political observers consider his eign aid programs will cost France around $1 billion each tenure would be short. this year at a time when De Gaulle has ordered a tight lid on government spending, wages and prices in an effort to fight inflation.
