Rusk, Gromyko
Hold Brief Talk
By STEWART HENSLEY
United Press International
NEW YORK (UPD—Secreta
ry of State Dean Rusk talked
today with Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei A. Gromyko
against a background of grow
ing pessimism over the possibi
lity of a meaningful meeting
between President Johnson and
Premier Alexei K. Kosygin.
Rusk, accompanied by U.S.
Ambassador to Russia Llewel
lyn E. Thompson, chatted with
Gromyko In a United Nations
lounge prior to opening of the
morning session of the Genera]
Assemby.
Rusk was there to hear U.S.
Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg
defend the United States against
Soviet charges of abetting
Israeli “aggression” and to
appeal for a calm and rational
approach to solving the crisis.
Administration sources said it
was becoming clear that as of
this moment Kosygin apparent
ly did not have authority from
his Kremlin associates to enter
a rockhard discussion with
Johnson on major U.S.-Soviet
problems around the world,
Including Vietnam and the

Middle East arms race.
They said this appeared to be
behind Kosygin’s polite refusal
of Johnson’s invitation to go to
Washington or to Camp David,
Md., where they could come to
grips with some of the critical
issues imperiling peace on
various world fronts.
Rusk was understood to have
some hope for a change in the
Soviet attitude.
Indications from other sour
ces w'ere that the Soviet Central
Commute was preparing for a
session to try to figure out what
to do next in the wake of the
disaster which befell Russia's
Arab allies.
Kosygin’s task here appeared
to be a propaganda operation
designed to placate the humili
ated Arabs and a holding action
while the Soviet presidium takes
a whole new look at the
question of East-West relations.
Official sources said a
Kosygin-Johnson meeting should
not ’be written entirely off as
yet, but it appeares less and
less likely unless the President
is willing to settle for a brief
courtesy session somewhere in
the New York area.
