UN Faces Global, Internal Problems
By Bruce W. Munn United Press International
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.—(UPI) The United Nations General Assembly resumes its adjourned 15th annual session Tuesday with prospects of two months of renewed East-West battling over the questions of the Congo, disarmament and Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold.
Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev apparently has decided to stay home, at least for the start of the session, depriving it of the fireworks attending the opening last September.
Dour Andrei Gromyko, the unsmiling, untheatrical Soviet foreign minister, will head Russia's delegation with the backing of Ambassador Valerian A. Zorin, debate with whom was recently described by a top Western diplomat as "like talking to an ax."
KWAME NKRUMAH, the Ghana leader ambitious for African power, will high-light the opening of the resumed meeting with a speech on the Congo marking the first time the head of a state has addressed the general assembly twice in one session. Nkrumah was here with Khrushchev and other world leaders for last September's spectacular, shoo-pounding opening.
Top diplomats quietly were seeking an agreement to hold the resumed session to minimum duration. If they succeed, the assembly could adjourn in three weeks or so. If they fail, it was likely May will find it still sitting.
It depends on whether Russia was willing to limit itself to a general discussion of disarmament here and turn the arms question over to negotiation by a small committee of experts. It depended on whether Russia was willing to drop its demand for a full airing of "aggression" charges against the United States and whether Washington and its Western partners in turn would agree to forego full debate again on the questions of Hungary and Tibet. It depended on whether Fidel Castro could be persuaded to silence his propaganda guns against the United States.
IT WAS CERTAIN that the Congo would dominate the assembly. Nkrumah scheduled a brief visit here to present his plan for an all-African command of the U. N. operation in the Congo. It seemed likely that Nkrumah's kickoff speech would be followed by a full debate on the political aspects of the Congo question.
Later, the assembly's administrative and budgetary committee will bring the Congo back to center stage when it reports its recommendations on how to finance the

most ambitious operation in U. N history.
Russia was expected to try for the third time—with the prospect of its third defeat for the project—to oust Hammarskjold and replace him with a presidium of Communist, Neutralist and Western administrators, each holding veto power.
Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru appeared to have killed off the Kremlin's hope of ousting Hammarskjold now when he announced that he opposed a change in the secretariat at this time. It was obvious that Moscow, seizing on the slaying of Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba to restart its "fire Hammarskjold" campaign, miscalculated that it now would gain more support for it from the new African and Asian countries than it mustered last September.

There is not a more unhappy being than a superannuated idol. — Joseph Addison
Plenty! Consider the problem. Western Electric manufactures the switching systems which connect some 60-million Bell telephones throughout the U. S. The average call over today's electromechanical system requires 420 relay operations. All together, this interconnecting equipment makes up the heart of what is, in effect, the world's largest machine.
That's where Western Electric and you come in. The switching equipment for this "machine" involves an enormous manufacturing job carried on by our plants throughout the country. Because of the size and service requirements involved, we require quality standards far exceeding those of ordinary manufacturing. The size of this job presents an unusual challenge to the engineer who may save the Bell System many thousands of dollars by even a small cost-reduction step.
What's it take to make the right connection?
While today's switching calls for a priority on engineering, tomorrow's will be even more exciting. For even now the revolutionary Electronic Central Office is under field trial and promises to remake the world of telephony. Future Western Electric engineers, working closely with their counterparts at Bell Telephone Laboratories, will concentrate heavily on developing manufacturing methods for this ECO equipment.
Your Western Electric assignments may cover many of our other responsibilities as the world's leading communications manufacturer. Perhaps you'll work on advances in microwave transmission, or even on satellite communications.
Joining Western Electric may well be your right connection.
