General Assembly’s main Po litical Committee agreed Tuesday to give disarmament top billing on its list of hot East-West issues for debate. Both the United States and the Soviet Union agreed to that course —but actual prospects remained dim for any immediate break in the long-standing deadlock on ac- t u a 1 disarmament negotiations. After long procedural wrangling the committee gave second spot to President Eisenhower’s African aid program and third to the ques tion of independence for Algeria. Agreement to put disarmament ahead, of everything else in the 99- nation committee came after a sur prise proposal from newly inde pendent Nigeria that the Eisen- C. R.

Satisfied But after the United States, the Soviet Union and a number of other nations stressed the desire to see disarmament taken up first, the Nigerian delegate, Jaja Wac- huku, said he would be satisfied to have issues related to Africa dropped to second place. U.S. Ambassador James J. Wadsworth expressed hope that Lt. Col. Hooks, Signal Officer, To Tour Campus Lt. Col. Walter H.

Eisenhower’s proposal be placed as high as possible on the commit tee’s work schedule. But he said the United States had already made clear in assembly debate it gave disarmament top priority. Eisenhower proposed in his as sembly speech Sept. 22 that the United Nations consider a . broad program for the independence and development of the newly inde pendent African nations. Wadsworth said the United States would present a prelimi nary outline of ideas that might be included in such a program. He indicated other members of the committee, especially the African representatives, would have to be consulted before definite plans could be presented. 17-Day GE Strike Halted By The Associated Press NEW YORK —Leaders of the 17-day strike against the General Electric Co.

Clearing the hurdles with research At Gen Tel, we've made a running start toward solving many of tomorrow’s communications problems. For instance, scientists at General Telephone & Elec tronics Laboratories are working in the uncharted area of the spectrum where radio waves take on the character istics of light. They have already developed an experi mental ultramicrowave system that may one day make possible the transmission of two million messages on a single radio beam in free space. As a major communications company with world-wide connections, General Telephone is helping to advance the science of total communications around the globe. Our stepped-up research in the basic sciences is but one example of the way General Telephone & Electronics combines the talents of many people and the facilities of many companies to meet the future communications needs not only of America, but the whole world v GENERAL _ _ TELEPHONEiELECTRONICS W
