The emergency session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York brings an indirect confrontation between President Johnson and Soviet Premier Alexei M.

Less than an hour and a half before the Assembly convenes to hear an opening address by the Soviet Premier, the President speaks in Washington to a foreign policy conference of educators at the State Department. He declares that "certainly troops must be withdrawn" from conquered Middle East territory, but he says peace in the area depends primarily on negotiations between Arabs and Israelis. At the U.N., Premier Kosygin charges the U.S. encouraged Israel to make war on the Arabs. He introduces a resolution calling on the Assembly to condemn Israel as an aggressor and order Israeli troops to give up all territory gained in the brief war. It is only the beginning of debate in the new diplomatic struggle over the war-torn Middle East. LS-Ext. 2 shots UN...MS-Kosygin enters meets U Thant...CU-Kosygin walking...LS-Pan down Gen.
