Russian U.N. Delegation Declines U.S. Proposals of Missile Control; European Press Eases Up on U.S.

By The ASSOCIATED Press

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Oct. 10--The United States offered today to enter immediately into multi-nation talks on control of outer space missiles. The offer was ignored by the Soviet Union, which accused the West of trickery in disarmament negotiations.

U.S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge warned the United Nations "we must not miss this chance" to harness for peace outer space missiles "which can blow us to bits."

But Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, speaking after Lodge in the U.N.'s 82-nation Political Committee, made no specific mention of control of missiles. He declared the Western Powers are "still unwilling to reach any agreement."

European Press Comments on Satellite

PARIS, Oct. 10--The Soviet earth satellite has jolted the press of Western Europe from its orbit of assailing U.S. policy. After long second thought, these newspapers once more are looking to Washington.

The German press predicted the United States soon will overtake the Soviet Union in the fields of satellites and guided missiles.

The British press urged a pooling of Western brains and know-how to meet the Soviet challenge. Italian newspapers took a similar stand.

Even the French press, only lately accusing the United States of betraying France in Algeria, appeared to feel that criticizing the United States now is a dangerous luxury.

Little Rock Deadlock

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Oct. 10--The Central High School racial integration crisis subsided today into a silent deadlock.

Gov. Orval Faubus stood firm on his stand that no compromise is in sight unless nine Negro students are withdrawn from integrated Central classrooms.

President Eisenhower has refused to withdraw regular Army troops and federalized Arkansas National Guardsmen from the school until he is satisfied that the court-endorsed Central High integration plan will be enforced by local authorities.
