...notes showered on NATO members on the eve of the Paris conference, Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin dropped one calculated teaser: a proposal that both East Germany and West Germany ban the production and stockpiling of atomic weapons in their territories.

But out of Warsaw last week came reports of a speech Deputy Premier Anastas Mikoyan recently made to Moscow University activists. One of the party's severest disciplinary judgments, "condemnation with a warning," has been pronounced upon Bulganin, said Mikoyan, for the Premier's vacillating stand last June, when, at the request of the Malenkov-Molotov-Kaganovich "anti-party"' group, he chaired a meeting...
