J._ EDEN The British Prime Minister says that the West must continue to deliver arms to the Middle E a st. -3Rr Anthony Bden, telling the House of Comons - that Russia is preventing an agreement to keep arms from that tinder-box of world politics. A Laborite asked the Prime Minister whether it would not be a good idea to discuss a complete•• embargo - diaousa it with America, Britain, France and Russia? To which Eden replied that the Krealin has not been at all encouraging about such a conference. The Russian leaders, keeping up their pretense that they have nothing to do with the ahipaent ot 8l'll8 frm Czechoslovakia to F.gypt. Therefore, the West will haYe to offset the Red 81'118 - with guns and aaun1t1on to uintaln a balance of power.

But Khrushchev quickly added - that Russia is pushing ahead on her otm~'!J::.~!ldding, that his country will soon pass America. At one point in the conversation, Slocum re■arked that building the dam was hard work. Khrushchev answered that his tour of India involved a lot ot work too. Then Slocua remarked: ''Okay, you take my job, and I' 11 take your job." Khrushchev praaptly retorted that he might not be giver a visa - and he wanted to know whether Slocum wo 1 ld lift the Iron Curtain a little bit - allowing him to get into America. Well, the Khrushchev-Slocum conversation sounds pleasant enough. But the dispatch says that Khrushchev and IOIRUSHCHEV - 2 Bulganin are doing a big job of selling themselves to the Indians. The two Soviet leaders, repeating that all they want is friendship with India - and a partnership in maintaining peace .

A spokesman, replying to the Russian leader's speech in New Delhi yesterday - when he accused the West of destroying "the Geneva spirit". Bulganin, telling the Indians that Russia wants a real peace - but the we•t is not quite so interested in re•ching an agreement. The Foreign Office reply is very 1trong. It points out that Bulganin said that Russia does not interfere with other states - although it is only Soviet obstruction that prevents the reunification of Oennany. Again, the Foreign Office notes that although the Russians talk a lot about peace - the only regimes they consider peaceful, are Communist tyrannies. The Foreign Office adds that Bulganin's charge that the X.S West doesn't want disal'llament - is cmpletely false. After the statement had been read, a spokesman for the Foreign Office told newsmen, "The point of view expressed by Marshal Bulganin - seems to us thoroughly hypocritical." This Foreign Offiee statement is regarded in London as ,ORBION OFFICE - 2 veey 1.Jlportant - because it indicates that the British governaent is taking P. tougher stand with the Soviets.
