Manhattan in the Spring

Nikita Khrushchev may not have amused anybody else with his table-thumping and shoe-pulling at the U.N. last fall, but he obviously enjoyed himself hugely. Last week, as his own summit meeting in Moscow of the world's Communist leaders broke up in guarded politeness, Nikita Khrushchev announced that he would like to come back to Manhattan next spring and have all the world's leaders come too. After a state visit from Cambodia's amiably neutralist Premier Prince Norodom Sihanouk, Khrushchev put his signature to a declaration that Russia and Cambodia "regard as advisable the convocation in the spring of 1961 of a special session of the U.N. General Assembly with the participation of heads of state or governments." Topic: disarmament.

Khrushchev has made no secret of the fact that he is most anxious to meet new U.S. President John F. Kennedy.
