Blocakan odf NATO Extension

MOSCOW - The Soviet Union
has reason to be well satisfied
with the outcome of the Cyprus
crisis.
The Cypriot government's re-
assertion of its sovereignty after
the confrontation between Turkey
and Greece fits into the long
term Soviet goal of a completely
independent Cyprus.
Soviet policy has been tailored
to prevent Cyprus's being united
with Greece or falling under
Turkish control, since both Greece
and Turkey are members of the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
tion.
Keep NATO Out
A basic theme of Soviet state-
ments in Cyprus has been opposi-
tion to any extension of the NATO
system to the east Mediterranean
*t island.
This represents a power con-
sideration of wanting to deny a
valuable position to potential
enemies.
The Kremlin has wanted local
politics to have more chance to
play themselves out in hopes of a
more important role for the Cyp-'
riot Communist party.
It is estimated to have about
10,000 members. They are firmly
oriented toward Moscow for
guidance, a valued attitude in
these days when Moscow has to
worry about pro-Peking and neu-
tralist Communist attitudes.
Less Influence
Greece has had a strongly anti-
Communist influence in Cyprus.
But with the forced withdrawal
now of Greek troops from the is-
land and the renoval of, Greek
Gen. George Grivas, this influ-
ence is likely to wane.
And with it, the possibility of
Cypriot union with Greece will
wane. Both developments suit
the Soviets.
Cyprus suits them too.
Partly as a reaction against a
disliked Greek regime, Soviet
leaders have tipped their Cyprus
policy slightly in favor of Turkey
lately. They have accepted Turk-
ish concern for the Turkish min-
ority on Cyprus as legitimate.
It will make things easier for
Soviet political commentators.
been trying to blame the Cyprus
crisis on NATO.,
But they found it difficult to
explain just how NATO could be
responsible when two NATO
members were at daggers point,
and a third member, the United
States, was playing the leading
role in trying to resolve the crisis.

Carmichael
PARIS - French police barred
Stokely Carmichael from France
last night, preventing him from
speaking at a rally called to de-
nounce the war in Vietnam, of-
ficial sources said.
The sources reported that Car-
micael, who was detained at Orly
Airport, would be put aboard a
plane today for any destination of
his choice. He had arrived from
Stockholm via Copehagen.
Though the reason for Carmi-
chael's detention was not explain-
ed, the sources said Carmichael
had been told by Swedish police
before his departure from Stock-
holm that he would be considered
"undesirable on French territory."
Carmichael was scheduled to
address the anti war rally tonight.
First word of his detention came
from one of the rally organizers.
Officials then conceded that he
had been refused entry into
France.
Carmichael said in Stockholm he
was returning to the United
States. On his arrival, the State
Department will pick up his pass-
port for visiting Cuba on a tour
that included Africa as well as
Europe.
The Vietnam National Commit-
tee, which organized the protest
rally, said in a statement Car-

Health Bill,
WASHINGTON - President
Johnson signed yesterday a bill
that authorizes $589 million more
in federal health aid over the
next three years, including $40
million for rat extermination.
Johnson said the bill, which
extends the health cooperation
act for three years, opens -up to
states and cities an opportunity
WASHINGTON - President
Johnson appointed career diplo-
mat Charles E. Bohlen yesterday
to replace Foy D. Kohler as
deputy undersecretary of state for
political affairs.
Bohlen has been ambassador to
France for the past five years.
Kohler resigned to join the fac-
ulty of the University of Miami
where he will teach international
affairs. He was in the foreign
service for 36 years.
The No. 4 position at the State
Department, now vacated by Koh-
ler, is regarded as the highest, post
a career diplomat can reach. The
top posts of secretary and two un-
dersecretaries are usually held by
political appointees.
Kohler's resignation came as a
surprise, but authoritative sources
said he informed the President
and Secretary of State Dean Rusk
after his return from Moscow
about his ambitions to go into
teaching.
Kohler is 59, Bohlen 63. Both
are career ambassadors, the high-
est rank in the foreign service.

CAPE TOWN, South Africa R)
-Hospital tests yesterday showed
the heart transplanted to Louis
Washkansky is functioning well,
reported the surgeon who per-
formed the first operation of this
kind.
The 55-year-old Cape Town
businessman had his first solid
food since the operation three
days ago, a soft boiled egg for
breakfast. He told attendants he
was hungry. For lunch he had
soup.
Prof. Christian Barnard, 44, the
surgeon who performed the oper-
ation, told reporters Washkansky
is being kept in- an oxygen tent,
but only to keep him isolated.
Dr. S. C. W. Bosman, heart
surgeon at the Groote Schuur
Hospital, said Washkansky's con-
dition "is very satisfactory" and
"all is going as well as any open
heart op'eration can behave."
Medical experts say the critical
period will begin about Sunday
when there may be some indica-
tions whether Washkansky's body
will reject the new heart. Bar-
nard said drugs are being admin-
istered to suppress possible rejec-
tion.
The heart of Denise Ann Dar-
vall, 25, an accounting machine
operator killed by an automobile
Saturday, was implanted to re-
place Washkansky's diseased or-
gan in the first operation of its
kind.
A child could reasonably be ex-
pected to live much longer with
a bad heart, while the life expec-
tancy of Washkansky had to be
measured in terms "of days or at
the most weeks," he explained.
A Cape Town druggist may be
the next receiver of a transplant-
ed heart, but Iarnard said a sec-
ond transplant was weeks away.
