Tenn.) today presented the NATO par- Mamentarians conference here with a declaration calling for "a true Atlantic community" with a permanent high council and @ consultative Atlantic as- sembly. The declaration, presented on behalf of 24' delegates to the conference here, also called for a trade partnership between North America and the Europ- ah Common Market, an Atlan- tic high court of justice and a common strategy inside and outside the Atlantic area. The delegates backing the declaration adopted the text last April and obtained signa- tures to it from 239 prominent figures in NATO countries, in- cluding 11 former prime minis- ters and foreign ministers and 81 legislators. Portugal is the only NATO country not repre- sented among the signatories. INCLUDES SUGGESTIONS The declaration, to be de bated later in the five-day con- ference which opéned today, in- cludes a number of recommen- dations made by He Atlantic convention held here last Janu- ary. The declaration referred to the "grave peril" facing the At- lantic community which it called the '"'bastion of human freedom." Other measures called for in- clude the development of a uni- fied Atlantic command, greater standardization and a "more rational' production of arms and equipment. It also says defence contribu- itons should be "'fairly shared among our respective coun- tries' The declaration calls for the European| dropped Common Market' and No rt biturday in five successive-strikes America as a basis for an At-jat objectives in north Katanga. ™ It called for the development of the NATO parliamentarians assembly which would review the work of all Atlantic institu- tions and make recommenda- tions to them. Walter Hallstein, president of the European Common Market Commission, told the con'er- ence he preferred the concept of an Atlantic partnership in re- lations between Europe and the United States to the term "'at- lantic Community." He said he felt the term "community," with implications of federal elements and par- tial political unity, would be un- acceptable to U.S. public opin- jon. He raised the point because it had direct relevance to the question of future British mem- bership in the Common Market.

BONN {AP) -- West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer expressed skepticism Monday about reports that the Russians are removing their missiles from Cuba and said the Cuban crisis is far from over. Speaking to reporters on the eve of Washington conferences with President Kennedy, he said-40 to 60 missiles had been taken to Cuba and added that as far as he is concerned no clear evidence has been pre- sented that they are being re- moved. Soviet ships have been photo- graphed leaving Cuba with long, covered tubes on deck but that | proves nothing, Adenauer main- jtained. He said he, cannot be- jlieve the Russians would se- cretly transport missiles and nuclear warheads to Cuba and ithen quietly remove them again. The United States must con- tinue to insist on actual inspec- tions on Cuban soil, he added. WASHINGTON (AP)--Pres- ident Kennedy summoned his three Cuban crisis negotiators to the White House today to discuss "developments to date" in their talks with Soviet and United Nations representatives. The announcement of the meeting did not elaborate. But one development certain to be on the agenda is the Soviet mis- Sile withdrawal. Deputy Defence Secretary Roswell Gilpatric ¢o if firmed Sunday the United States has counted 42 Russian missiles on ships steaming away from) Cuba. $100,000 $75,000 $50,000 $25,000 But he stressed that without| on-site inspection the United) States can't be certain whether the 42 were all Moscow sent in.| "The Soviets said there were! 42," he said. "We have counted 42 going out. We saw fewer than 42" in U.S. reconnaissance flights over Cuba. CAN'T BE SURE | "Until we have so-called on-| site. inspection of the island of} Cuba we could never be sure Start 42 Missiles Sighted The Chest On Soviet Freighters that 42 was the maximum num- ber the Soviets brought into Cuba," said Gilpatric. The negotiators Kennedy will see, today are UN Ambassador Adlai Stevenson, Charles D. Yost, Stevenson's Security Council deputy, and John J. Mc- Cloy, chairman of the presi- dent's Cuban crisis co-ordinat- ing committee. : A delegation spokesman said Sunday .the three will discuss with the president' "develop- ments to date in negotiations on the Cuban question with Acting UN Secretary-General U Thant {and Soviet First Deputy Foreign Minister Vasily Kuznetsov."' STILL IN QUESTION Among the matters appar- ently still unresolved are: 1, Inspection of Cuba and ships entering Cuba, 2. Disposition of a score or more Ilyushin-28 medium jet bombers in Cuba which Ken- nedy included in the category of offensive weapons that had to be withdrawn. Cuba's UN 'fepresentative, Carlos M. Lechuga, told report- ers Sunday Cuba has not al- tered 'its objection to any in- spection of its territory or ships. But he said Cuba did not ob- ject to inspection of ships of other nations on the high seas. Authoritative UN sources said Sunday the United States and the Soviet Union have been un- able to agree on how long the International Red Cross Com- mittee should inspect Cuba- bound Russian ships to make certain no more Soviet missiles are shipped in. They said the United States wants a longer period of Red Cross inspection than the Soviet Union is willing to accept. But they said the periods mentioned in the talks fluctuated, and that the United States nas reduced its early demand of 30 days. Thant has declared he hoped to announce final agreement on all points by Tuesday. Washington sources have said the United States insists the So- viet Union also pull out the jet bombers. é Cuban Inspection Adenauer called it dangerous to let -the Russians depict themselves as great. peace-lov- ers just because Premier] not Khrushchev said he would pull the rockets out of Cuba. Adenauer said the Cuban crisis was a drastic lesson for those Washington circles who have been believing that one could negotiate. He said he opposed Western negotiations with the Soviet Un- ion so long as Russia shows no evidence of being genuinely in- terested in settling East-West disputes. The 8 - year - old chancellor also maintained there should be separate negotiations with the Kremlin on Berlin and German problems. a "for hate or cruelty?" "The sentence at Liege is baffling," the radio. said. "Against this. sentence there raise the voices of the slain baby, of mothers who behaved differently, of all humanity. "At the trial the accused were heard but the victim was ot. "Who and by what right has presumed that the baby, if she could have spoken, would have asked for death? "Those who did the' killing were absolved because they were moved by love and pity. Was it then perhaps hate or crucity which motivated the thousands of other mothers who defended and protected the lives and prepared the future for other babies similar to the Vandeput baby? "Who can accuse of egoism a love ora pity which saves and define as justified another which kills?" He said he was not opp to East-West talks in principle but that the Russians must first show they are ready to solve dif- fiuclties. He said. there has been no evidence so far that they are willing to do so. Adenauer was speaking with a smatl group of reporters called to the chancellory before his trip to Washington, Aden- auer leaves Tuesday for meet- ings with President Kennedy. Newfoundland Tory Leader Wants TV Feud ST: JOHN'S, Nfld. (CP) With the Monday, Nov. 19, New- foundland election one week away, the campaign shows signs of warming up with a pos- sible television debate. Progressive Conserva- tive Leader James Greene said Sunday he has sent a telegram to Liberal Premier Smallwood challenging him to "publicly de- bate" the issues of the election campaign on a half-hour radio and television program at the premier's. convenience. Mr. Smallwood said an inter. view later that he will make a 15-minute television appearance Wednesday and invited Mr. Greene to watch the program for his answer to the debating challenge.

(AP)--A variety store owner said he is being harassed by a group which vows to "purge the community's store shelves of products manu- factured in Communist na- tions." Merchant Robert L. Sparlin identified the group as the Al- ton Committee to Protect Amer- ican Free Enterprise from Com- munist Slave-Labor imports. He said he had been flooded "I was in your store and I was alarmed to find Communist slave merchandise. I wonder if going to do anything about it." The organization's secretary, Mrs. William J.
