Quakes Raze Iran Village

First reports said most of the quake victims were women and children. Most of the town's youngsters were assembled in the school when the first tremor hit, collapsing the structure.

Italian Deputy Chief Delegate Francisco Cavaletti asked:
Bulgarian Deputy Foreign Minister Milio Tarabanov retorted that "we cannot talk of measures if we do not now where they will lead. The first step is important, and that is to agree on general and complete disarmament."
"Can it be that the Soviets place no value on the importance of first steps? Do the Soviets prefer slogans to accomplishments? Do the Soviets think it would be a negligible thing if some fissionable materials would be transferred from bombs to peaceful uses? Does this signify nothing to them?"
