Attacked At UN
United Nations, July 12.
Almost every member of the 12-nation Disarmament Commission sharply criticised the speech of the Boviot delegate, Mr Andrei Gromyko.
Mr Gromyko accepted the Western proposal of manpower levels for disarmament. How over, ho coupled this with a de- mand for a ban on nuclear wea- pons and delivered a bilstering attack against US foreign policy,
The
US Ambassador, Mr Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., was the first to denounce Mr Gromyko's specch
It was a "scurrilous attack on my country in the very worst traditions of Stalinism," he said.
NONSENSE!
The Irantan Ambassador Mr Djalo) Abdoh objected in Mr Gromylcd'# churge that Near East peoples were "prisoners" of the Baghdad Pact which was designed to preserve British and American positions in the area.
"My country adhered to the Beghdnd Pict in

He said he saw in other parts of Mr Gromyko'a apecch "gome rather more encouraging signs," mid he would like to study them carefully before commenting on them.

“We adhered to the Baghdad Pael because of our bitter ex- periences of the past and I am sure many of these are not known to Mr Gromyko. I refer lo 1946, when Iran had request the Security Council to ask the Soviet Union to with- draw is troops from Azerbaijan. In view of this, it was normal for us to think about defence and link our efforts to safeguard our position
