Red Stop-Gap
Proposal Hit
By Stevenson
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. O—The United States
Monday rejected a Soviet proposal to name a stop-gap
UN secretary-general.
It declared the plan would "seriously undermine
the integrity of the UN secretariat."
The Soviet Union disclosed Sunday night a proposal
calling for a temporary head of the secretariat to act
in clone consultation with three deputies.
The Russians explained it would not be bound by
a veto.

7 of Family Die in Crash
FREMONT, Neb. e— A Blair, Neb., couple and five
of their six children were killed Monday In the collision
of their car and a semi-trailer truck at the southeast
edge of Fremont, 40 miles west of Omaha. The vic-
tims were Dallas Talkington, 46, his wife and five chil-
dren. A sixth child was not with the family.
Two Injured Critically
An Adrian, Mo., woman and a Spavinaw man were
critically injured Monday in a car-pickup truck smash-
up at the intersection of U. S. 66 and S. H. 82 east
of Vinita.
Injured were Emma Wells, 66, and Carl R. Wendler,
68, Spavinaw. Mrs. Wells was a passenger in a car
driven by her husband. Wendler was driver of the
pickup.
Reds Fire Another A-Blast
WASHINGTON (UPD-Russia exploded Monday its
16th fallout-producing nuclear device since resuming at-
mospheric tests September 1. The atomic energy com-
mission reported the blast and said it "had a yield on
the order of a megaton." The detonation occurred in the
Soviets’ arctic testing grounds of Novaya Zemlya.

CAIRO, Egypt (P— The
Cairo press Monday began
to point a finger at the Unit-
ed States as involved in the
background of the Syrian re-
volt.
The morning paper Al Ah-
ram headlined a story:
“America attempts to cover
But U. S. Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson, in a state-
ment Monday, declared the Soviet proposal "is not a
real compromise."
"It does not give the interim secretary-general a
mandate to carry out the full functions of the office.”
said Stevenson. “This is imperative for the effective op-
eration of the United Nations,
"The UN should promptly designate an outstand-
ing figure to carry on the functions of the secretary-
general on an interim basis. Meeting this urgent need
must not be obstructed or delayed by efforts to change
the structure of the United Nations itself.”
Other Nations to Study Plan
Stevenson contended the Soviet proposal maintains
the idea of the troika, or three-man secretariat, each
having the right to veto.
Representatives of non-aligned countries said they
wanted time to study the Soviet proposal.
Under the Soviet plan, the temporary head of the
UN secretariat would act in close consultation with
three deputies, but would not be bound by a veto from
the deputies in the day-by-day work of the secretariat.
But the Soviet proposal said the temporary head, to
be recommended to the general assembly by the se-
curity council, “must maintain daily co-operation with
his deputies and must seek to achieve mutual agree-
ment with them on major questions of the work of
the secretariat.”

The proposal, previously reported by informed
diplomats; was spelled out this way Sunday night in a
statement from the Soviet delegation:
The general assembly would choose a man to head
the UN secretariat until April, 1863, but he would have
to work in co-operation with three deputies. None would
have a veto. The assembly would make its selection
on the recommendation of the security council.
The Russians have a veto in the security council
and could reject any candidate they disliked.
The Russian statement said U. S. press reports had
distorted the Soviet position by saying that it aimed
"at using the veto in the everyday work of the guiding
body of the secretariat.”
The Russians charged that the object was to mis-
lead public opinion and whitewash the position of those
