a TWO Section One FORT WORTH STAR- -TELEGRAM Monday Morning, September 23, 1963 Rusk Says Cold War Not Cured Steady Pursuit Of Peace Urged UNITED NATIONS, N. Sept. 22 -Secretary of State Dean Rusk saw no quick prospect Sunday of "dramatic and sweeping solutions" to dangerous cold war problems. He urged steady effort on small steps toward peace "because we may find them to be the key to larger ones." Rusk spoke at a dedication of a Church Center for the United Nations, a new building to be operated by the National Council of Churches to give laymen and clergymen first hand experience at the United Nations. Both U.

N. Secretary General Thant and Adlai E. Stevenson, U. S. ambassador to the U.

reported in their speeches at the same ceremony rising hopes among the delegates at the General Assembly's fall meeting. Thant said the limited nuclear test ban treaty signed Aug. 5 by the United States, Britain and Russia and since by nearly 100 nations is in itself "an agreement of modest proportions." Door Opened But the East-West accord "has opened the door to further and more meaningful steps in the direction of peace and disarmament," he said. "'The 18th session has opened in an atmosphere of renewed hope." The U. N.

secretary general added that many U. N. Charter provisions contain principles of the great religions. He said peaceful progress is possible "only in a society where tolerance and freedom of thought prevail." "The quest for peace," he said, "can be successful only if adequate satisfaction is given to the basic aspirations of mankind for a better life, a life of ethical fulfilment as well as of material well Stevenson said "an atmosphere of rising, hopes" pervades the new session, but declined to predict the future political weather. To See Gromyko Rusk, in New York for meetings with about 60 foreign ministers attending the fall session, expects to know more about what further agreements might be reached with the Soviets when he sees Foreign Minister Andrei A.

Gromyko of Russia. Their parleys are to start late this week. The U. S. foreign affairs chief said that, "Taking the longest view, I am encouraged by the fact that the causes for war appear to be diminishing in variety" and "by the growing and sobering realization of what war can mean." He added: "I do not see on the immediate horizon dramatic and sweeping solutions to divisive and dangerous problems.

But we must work at them steadily, patiently and ceaselessly. "Small steps are worth taking because we may find them to be the key to larger ones. The arrangements we make for limited measures may prove to be the small foundations upon which confidence can grow and security which has no assurance through destructive power alone may be allowed to Plumps For Aid Rusk also strongly urged congressional reversal of the House action in chopping President Kennedy's foreign aid bill from $4,000,000,000 to $3,500,000,000. The bill is now before the Senate. "To reduce or relax our efforts to maintain peace and build a world in which freedom can flourish would be a tragic folly," he said.

The $3,000,000 Church Center for the United Nations is a new 12-story edifice across the street from the U. N. headquarters. The building was built by the Methodist Church and will be administered by the National Council of Churches. Roman Catholic and leaders also took part in the ceremony.
