Published in ''Istochnik'', (Moscow) No. 6, 2003, pp. 122-127. Translated for CWIHP by Gary Goldberg. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/113340 Summary: Krushchev dictates his ideas for a general memorandum that he will give to Kroll. The memorandum will describe the situation in Germany and the possible development of Soviet-West German relations. It should demonstrate to West Germany the economic and political advantages of improving its relationship with the Soviet Union. Khrushchev describes the potential for West Germany's allies to capitalize on Cold War tensions in Germany and concludes that better relations with the Soviet Union will make West Germany a more active force in East-West relations and lead to a more stable balance of power. Original Language: Russian Contents: English Translation First I would like to talk so that you understand [me] and then I will dictate what the nature of this document should be. I would consider it necessary to prepare a memorandum, a memorandum of an impersonal nature; neither from me nor the MID [Ministry of Foreign Affairs], nor from anyone to anyone. This memorandum is to describe the essence of the situation that has now developed in the world and especially the question of Germany, the solution to the German question, and the further development of relations between the Soviet Union and the Federal Republic of Germany.

"By their further Decision of 18 November 1960 the CONTRACTING PARTIES extended until 31 December 1961 the period during which effect might be given to the New Zealand tariff pursuant to the Decision of 4 June 1960 and during which the consequent negotiations and consulta- tions should be completed. "Information concerning the changes in Schedule XIII was submitted to contracting parties on 26 September and the New Zealand delegation has been ready to undertake negotiations since 2 October. While every effort will be made to complete the negotiations by 31 December 1961 it seems unlikely, judging from the experience of other countries that this will be possible.

Arrangement: See description of contents below. Finding Aid prepared by the History 552 class , North Carolina State University, Spring Semester, 1974; consolidated on November 15, 1974. The Carolina Charter Tercentenary Commission was established by the 1959 General Assembly to develop and execute a program for the celebration of the tercentenary of the Carolina Charter of 1663.1 A commission comprised of twenty-five members was created by the legis­ lature. Twenty-two of the commission ' s members were to be appointed by the governor to serve two-year terms, and the remaining three ex officio members were the Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Director of the Department of Conservation and Development, and the Director of the Department of Archives and History.2 Of major significance was the commission's decision to broaden • the scope of the tercentenary celebration to encompass the first one hundred years of North Carolina ' s existence. The commission decided to expand the time period from 1663 to 1763 for several reasons. First, no suitable focus in terms of geography or time existed in North Caro­ lina to sustain a year long celebration for the year 1663. 3 Secondly, the development of North Carolina was a slow process.
