‘Coexistence is

By LLOYD Mt-DONALD Canadian Press Staff Writer UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (CPI

The 12th General Assembly of the United Nations moved closer to adjournment "riday night with the principle of peaceful coexist- ence as its 1...‘. major item But a difference of opinion on wording stood in the way of agreement. The assembly politi- cal committee remained divided on the use of. the Russlan-sup- ported "coexistence" term. Despite this. the debate—prob- ably the final one before the dele- gates head home for the holidays —was friendly in tone in com- parison with previous occasions. On Thursday night Russia cir- culated to the 02 members of the UN a letter calling in general for improved East-West relations. Henry Cabot Lodge replied for the United States. saying that the West welcomed such an overture but expressing s‘ -pticism over Russian intentions. The Ameri- can delegate referred to the "l'm
