...Russians could hardly wait to say tyet. When Dean finished, Soviet Negotiator Valerian Zorin read a prepared text that derided the U.S. concessions. The proposal, gibed Zorin, was "just the old American position dolled up in a new guise to deceive the neutrals." The Administration's proposal got more notice at home than it did at the inter national conference table. For the whole question of the U.S. position at Geneva was becoming a political issue. Declared Senate Republican Leader Everett Dirksen: "Hat in hand, the Kennedy Administration sent our negotiators back to Geneva with...
Communists, predictably, fussed about the tests. At the arms-control talks in Geneva. Soviet Delegate Zorin charged the U.S. with "hypocrisy, an aggressive act against peace, pushing the world closer to an abyss of atomic war."

American scientists have met with their Soviet colleagues at the Stowe and Pugwash conferences, and at numerous professional conventions; they know one another personally and by reputation. It would be ludicrous and somewhat repugnant for Mr. Zorin to accuse scientists of this stature of running errands for the C.I.A. Their intellectual honesty is as well known as the U-2 fiasco, and the world would give less credence to Soviet suspicions if they were directed at reputable scientists...
