At one period, he spent till months on the trail. Travelling light, sometimes ompanied by a few porters. he has roamred the jungle. meeting and questioning the Indians, searching for clues to his son's disappearance.

3. That the bans should he writ-. ten into a limited disarmamenty treaty.

Soviet delegate Valerian Zorln: said he welcomed Stassen's state- ment. He indicated it will be re- ferred to Moscow promptly for top- level study.

REALM OF POSSIBILITY

Before Stassen spoke. the fourl Western members of the subcom-I mittee-Britain. US. Canada and- France-said a temporary suspen- sion of tests had been brought- "within the realm of possibility"; by Russia's decision to let interna-5 tional inspectors enter the Sovietl Union to guard against cheating on an international agreement.

British Foreign Secretary Sel-I wyn Lloyd and French delegate Jules Moch gave full support to Stassen's proposal.

Lloyd spoke to the subcommit- tee just before Stassen made his statement.

The British diplomat suggested that Soviet and Western experts should begin talks at once with the aim of designing a detailed system of controls and inspection.

After hearing Stassen. Zorin said he was happy that the West- ern powers had recogmzed the need to stop tests. He said he felt
