Presbyterian-H Church's Views On Disarmament

EDINBURGH tlteuterai - The Presbyterian Church of Scotland in general assembly hero declar- ed Monday that it was unable to commend any policy of unilateral disarmament "which might well increase rather than diminish the danger of war."

But it declared that "the con- tinued designing of weapons of mass destruction and the piling up of armaments was fraught with the gravest peril and that peace among nations maintained only by mutual fear was utterly contrary to the purposes of God for mankind."

it rejected by a large majority a proposal that it should support an end to the manufacture of hydrogen bombs and all other weapons of war.

"The pacifist position. is we be- lieve. logical but utterly unreal- istic." said Dr. Nevlle Davidson presenting.the report of a special committee on the subject.

The assembly approved top- level four power talks to ease world tension and prayed for new understanding and trusl'in inter- national relations.

MONTREAL (CPD - A small

Philadelphia. president of one of the biggest insurance outfits in the United States, led his board of uirectors across the border Monday for a two-week look-see at Canada.

John A. Dicmand of the North American Companies, 79-year-old head of a group of three marine. fire and accident companies in Philadelphia with assets exceed- ing 5725,000,000, calls the trip "a somewhat unique” experiment in Canadian - American business re- lations.

"We've come to Canada to team." he sairl simply "We want to look over our facilities from Montreal to Vancouver and we want to look over your economic development."

He said he and the 17 other directors whose interests range from plate glass and airlines to coal and hotels plan to meet not only compa y agents. but busi- ness leaders and bankers across

Modern business management in making sound decisions required more than a knowledge of yes- terday's needs, Awareness of the future was also essential.

Tito And Russian Leaders Resume Talks In Secret

By EDDY GILMORE

I” A Z A N A, Yugoslavia tAPl- Piesident Tito and the Russian leaders resumed their talks Mon- day in secrecy on the secluded Adriatic island of Brinni only a few hundred yards from this small coastal town.

There was no word on what points were involved in the talks. suspended in Belgrade two days ago.

Russiaii sources predicted that an agreement will be reached that will materially improve Soviet-Yugoslav relations. But au- thoritative Yugoslav sources say Tito has rejected Soviet plans for his country's immediate re- turn to the eastern bloc. or any proposal that Yugoslavia accept a role of "passive co-existence" on th. international scene.

SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING

Back in Moscow the Communist newspaper Pravda and the Mos- cow radio said negotiations with Tito are "developing in the spirit of full mutual understanding” The Soviet organs predicted the negotiations will result in bar- monious future relations which would disregard past differences

This was the first progress re- port on the Belgrade negotiations given the Soviet people.

The Soviet radio and press had It harsh word for Western cor- respondents covering the meeting in Belgrade. saying they were spreading ”ultrapessimistic pre- dictions about negotiations" in order to muddle them.

Pravda said Belgrade political circles were expressing hope that both side! would, without looking at the past. develop relations to- ward "further consolidation. co- operation and friendship." it said the Soviet Ildl! "expresses satis- faction with the course of nego- tiations. '-'.

The reference to the past in- cludes the Soviet action of hav- ing Yugoslavia kicked out of the Cominform in l948 because Tito refused to bow to Kremlin orders.
