By Francis W. Carpenter

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y., (AP) ..-Andrei Vlshlnslry hinted Thurs- day that the Soviet Union has niOmlC. hydrogen and other wea- pon types which the western countries have not developed.

western delegations privately riscounted the claims as bluster to onset a solid defeat suffered by the soviet peace package proposals which would him all such weapons of mast destruction.

The chief Soviet delegate men- finned the mystery weapons in a tan-hour and 10-minute appeal to the 60-natitti political committee for approval of the peace package.

The committee rejected every kr')' paragraph of the Russian pro- posal. There was no vote on the resolution as a whole since none or the major parts survived the balloting.

No Elaboration

Vishlnslry did not elaborate on his remarks about Russian super- tority in atomic and hydrogen bombs.

He led into his claim by saying British Minister of state Selwyn l.lovd had asserted the Russians urre trying to get general reduc- lions of armunerils in the fields in which they were weakest. It was alleged. he said. that the Soviet W-mrul Wu trying to prohibit nzcmic weapons because. accord- nu to Lloyd. the West had greater

Announceiiieni ls Surprise To Wesiemiowers

MOSCOW, (AP) -- The Soviet Union announced today it has told Britain, the United States and France it is prepared to attend a. four-power conference. ,

The Soviet announcement came in a communique from the Soviet news agency Toss that was broad- cast on Moscow Radio and pub- iished in the government news- paper Isvestia.

The announcement of Soviet readiness to meet with the West- ern powers came amid preparations in the West for top level meetings of Prime Minister Churchill, Presi- dent Eisenhower and French Pre- mier Joseph Lanlel in Bermuda starting Dec. 4.

The Moscow announcement came as a surprise. First it was heard on the Moscow Radio by monitors in London. The French foreign office immediately said that was the first word it had, although such announcements usually come to Paris first through the French em- bassy in Moscow.

Emergency Conferences

Western Germany, which might be vitally affected by four-power dealings at this stage, showed its surprise immediately. German and Allied officials in Bonn scheduled emergency conferences to discuss the implications of the Russian note.

The communique was published under the headline: "On the par- ticipation of the U. E. S. R. in 3 four power conference."

The text of the announcement said: :"On Nov. 28 the U. S. S. R. ministry of foreign affairs deliver- ed to the United States. British and French embassies, a note on the agreement of the government of the U. S. S. R. to take part in a con-

He said in the Commons that as yet no means has been devised to guarantee that every attacking airplane would he stopped short of its target. some probably would get through.

Even if such a foolproof sir de- fence system were technically pos- sible, the combined resources of Cnmada and the United States would not he enought to pay for it. It is now a case of taking care of the most urgent matters first, he said.

He outlined what Canada and the United states are doing to protect the continent from attack and said the two countries are in "general agreement."

”The government -and armcd forces of the United States have been continuously associated with us" in the planning and imple- mentation of continental defence.

Threat Increased

He said joint eforis of Canada and the United States have been spurred by "the intelligence that the Russians had exploded an atom bomb? Russian production of long- range bombers and "still more destructive bombs" increased the threat to North America.

To counter the threat the two countries had been carrying out joint research into defensive sve- tems. Among the projects was the McGill fence, 3 radar scheme de- yeloped largely at McGill Univers- fy.
