()- Twenty'-one Latin-American Caribbean countries, working from agreements reached here, may soon finish drafting a treaty to bar nu- clear weapons from their region. But Cuba, Puerto Rico and the+ Virgin Islands are not likely to come'under it. Representatives of the 21 coun-1 tries-all in the area except Bar- bados, Cuba and Guyana-meet+ in Mexico City today in the fourth session of the Preparatory Com- mission for the Denuclearization1 of Latin America, which began work there in November, 1964. They will consider recommen-; dations from a coordinating com- mittee as to the wording of seven articles not agreed on previously in the 26-article treaty. That com- mittee-Brazil, Ecuador, El Salva- dor, Haiti and Mexico-met here Dec. 27 and 28. In its report to the commission, the committee urged that every effort be made to have the treaty open for signature at the closing meeting of the coming session. With that in mind, it advised them to send representatives that could stay long enough to finish it and with full powers to sign it. The treaty would be open to all Latin-American republic and other undisputedly sovereign countries" "situated in their entirety south! of the latitude 30 degrees north,"; which runs through New Orleans.t It would also be open to otherc countries with international re- sponsibility for territories in that area "with reference to the ter- ritories in respect of which theyc agree to accept the obligations"< arising out of it. sion: "We do cluded in free zone since that Commonwe cause of its ship with t "In the areas in tl deal with affecting of Foster'sI Canal Zone in the nuclear-free not wish to have in- sector, provided it retained the the proposed nuclear right of transit of nuclear wea- in the Virgin Islands, pons.

The treaty would bind the par- ties to prevent the testing, use, manufacture, production, acquisi- tion, receipt, storage, installation, deployment and "any form of pos- session" of nuclear weapons on the territories covered. The coordinating committee rec- ommended a compromise on the question of how it should come into effect. Mexico and oth-rs had wanted the treaty to take effect between countries ratifying it just as soon as they had done that. Brazil and others had wanted it to take effect only when all those countries to which it was open had ratified it and when all the nuclear powers had ratified a separate agreement to respect the denu- clearized status of Latin America. In the recommended comprom- ise, the treaty would take effect in general only when these two requirements had been fulfilled. But any country signing it would have the right to file a waiver of these requirements along with its instrument of ratification. For any such country the treaty would take effect immediately. The proposed agreement of the nuclear powers has run into trouble. Alfonso Garcia Robles of Mexico, chairman of the prepara- tory commission, told the General Assembly's main political commit- tee last Nov. 9 that Communist China had refused to support it. Peking objected that the treaty was backed by the United Nations which has refused to seat Commu- nist China, and would serve no useful purpose so long as the United States retains nuclear arms. On Dec. 10, 1965, Director Wil- firmed las liam C. Foster of the U.S. Arms Freeman, I Control and Disarmament Agency ico-said ti wrote the preparatory commis- agee to in Pro-Western Party Wins In japan Sato's Liberal Dems Swamp Red-Oriented Socialist Opponents TOKYO (R) - Prime Minister Eisaku Sato's pro-Western Liberal Democrats have returned to power, his pro-Peking Socialist opponents have suffered a severe setback, and a new third force has emerged in Japanese politics. These developments 'stood out today in final returns in Sunday's general election for a new House of Representatives. Ahead of Sato lies a possibly, crucial period for U.S.-Japan rela- tions, with the American-Japanese. security treaty due to come up for review in 1970. The election out- come was bound to reinforce Sato's position and to dull Commuist and Socialist efforts to get Japan to scrap the treaty. Chinese Chaos Communist China's chaos clear- ly hurt the leftists more than cor- ruption charges damaged Sato. Although his conservative party slipped in popular vote to less than 50 per cent for the first time since the war, it won 277 seats in the 486-member House - seven more places than Sato had pre- dicted. The Socialists took 140, 30 less than they had expected to win. In between, the anti-Commu- nist Democratic Socialist and the Buddhist Komeito-clean govern- ment-parties were the real win- ners. Their emergence pointed a new political force that could exer- cise considerable influence In Japanese politics in the future. The Democratic Socialists won 0 seats, seven more than they had in the old House. The Komeito, making a debut in a lower House election, obtained 25 seats, al- though the party had only 32 can- didates. Kozo Sasaki, chairman of the Socialist party, was elected. Mr. Sasaki is the leader of the pro- Peking faction, which has held control of the party for more than two years. His chief lieutenant, the party's secretary general, Tomo- mi Narita, was also elected. Lead- ing Liberal Democrats elected in- cluded Mr. Stato's brother and predecessor as Premier, Nobosuke Kishi, and Takeo Miki, the Min- ister of Foreign Affairs. Reckoning with Minority Until now the Liberal Demo- crats and the Socialists have dom- inated Japanese politics. Now the Democratic Socialists and the Komeito must be reckoned with, for Japanese political etiquette frowns on a majority running roughshod over a sizeable minor- ity. Sato, 65, winning his first elec- tion since he became prime min- ister, was all smiles despite the popular vote loss. For one thing he could count on eight of the nine independents voting with his party. The ninth promised to back the Socialists. Apparently most of the Liberal Democrat losses were to the Demo- cratic Socialists and the Komeito, largely because of so-called "black mist" corruption charges leveled against Sato's government. The Socialists also had tainted some Socialists, and the Peking events added further injury. Sato repeatedly reminded voters of the China turmoil. Sato indicated he planned no big changes in his government. f-Associa SALUTE TO APOLLO ASTRONAUT Saluting to the caskets of the Appolo I astronauts as their caskets are loaded on an Ai plane at Cape Kennedy yesterday are from left: Maj.

FEDERAL-STATE PARTNERSHIP: Johnson Submits Proposals To Curb Widespread Pollut WASHINGTON (A) -- President Johnson called yesterday for an all-out assault on air pollution. He said the problem is growing worse and endangering the nation's health. "The economic loss from pol- lution amounts to several billions each year," Johnson said in a spe- cial message to Congress. "But the loss in human suffer- ing and pain is incalculable." Unless regulatory and research efforts are strengthened, Johnson said, "ten years from now, when industrial production and waste disposal have increased and the number of automobiles on our streets exceeds 110 million, we shall have lost the battle for clean air." Federal-State Partnership Johnson asked for legislation to strengthen the hand of the fed- eral government. But he stressed that federal action alone cannot solve the problem.

The avalanche of transactions in the first 20 trading days of January reflected a resurgence of confidence that exploded at the beginning of the new year. Brokers said the renewed in- terest in the market-especially by big institutions controlling bil- lions of dollars in ready cash-was due in big part to the easing of credit and doubt that President Johnson's recommendation of a 6 per cent surcharge increasing in- come taxes would get through Congress. * * * SAIGON, South Vietnam-The U.S. Army rounded out its Mekong River delta fighting force yester- day with the landing of the final unit of the 15,000-man 9th Infan- try Division on Vietnamese soil. The division's mission is range through the Viet Cong heartland and smash the enemy's chief net- work of recruiting and supply. The 3,200 men of the 9th's 2nd Brigade came ashore at Vung Tau, 40 miles southeast of Saigon, as the war continued at its slackened pace of small, scattered actions. This raises the number of Amer- ican troops in South Vietnam to over 404,000. * '* * WASHINGTON - President Johnson's administration told Con- gress Monday that unless the debt limit is raised, the Treasury may be paying only half the nation's bills in March. Secretary of the Treasury Henry H. Fowler asked for a $7-billion increase in the temporary $330- billion limit on the amount that may be borrowed to cover Treasury deficits. Treasury payments to more than 25 million people, including Social Security, veterans pension and re- tirement pay will be in jeopardy after March 1 unless the Treasury gets more borrowing power, Fowler told the House Ways and Means Committee. TOKYO-Communist China said today "millions upon millions" of its people had demonstrated against alleged Soviet beatings of Chinese students in Moscow and Iraq. In an official protest over the Iraq incident, the Chinese Foreign Ministry warned the Russians: "Each and every debt of blood which you have incurred must be repaid in full." Peking's New China News Agen- cy NCNA, reporting anti-Soviet demonstrations Sunday and yes- terday, said a note protesting the Iraq incident had been delivered to the Soviet Embassy in Peking Monday. The note followed a sharp pro- test from Moscow Sunday over Red Guard demonstrations at the Soviet Embassy in the Chinese capital. The Soviet note appeared to hint at steps toward a break in diplomatic relations. vate industry must comr selves more fully, moref and with a new sense-o to America's struggle poisoned air," he said.

Mao Urges 'Alliance' To Crush Foes Intended To Counter Liu's Rising Strength, Trouble in Sinkiang TOKYO (P )- Mao Tse-tung'si leadership, rocked by weeks of civil strife, admittted Monday its followers were divided, and called for a shift in strategy- -a "greatj alliance to crush Mao's foes. The official People's Daily said! "petty bourgeois ideology" exists among followers of the 73-year- old party chairman and these dif- ferences must be overcome before: an alliance can be formed.

"I regard the entire involvement as an unfortunate one," Kennan said. But "I support the admin- istration in its unwillingness to get out of Vietnam in any ignom- inous way." Foreign Policy Scrutinized Kennan thus keynoted a re- newal of the Senate Foreign Re- lations Committee's inquiry into the conduct of American foreign policy. Kennan spoke hopefully of the prospects for an easing of East- West tensions, and said the unity of the Communist bloc is a matter of the past. "This humpty dumpty will not and cannot be reassembled," he said and went on to say that if U.S. policymakers ignore basic shifts in the Communist world they may miss the only chance to avoid the holocaust of nuclear wvar. Kennan said also that nuclear war before the end of this century is more probable than possible un- less arrangements are wor'ked out to bar the spread of nuclear wea- pons. In dealing with Communist' powers, he said, the United States should stand firm in the great.' crucial matters, but seek accom- modations on other topics. In that regard, he urged swift approval of the proposed consular convention with the Soviet Union. The pact envisions the opening of a Soveit consulate in the United States and of an American post in Leningrad. Perhaps the most notable op- ponent of the consular agreement has been FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. He has stated that the, added. Soviet personnel would make the spy-fighting task of his agency more difficult. Pontiff, Podgorny Discuss Soviet Catholics, Viet Nam MADRID (P)-Spanish student and worker protests over police arrests snowballed yesterday into a violence-studded problem for the government of Gen. Francisco Franco. At Madrid University, where students and security forces clash- ed in a pitched battle of stones and clubs, many students were detained. At least three foreign newsmen observing the clashes were beaten by police. Witnesses estimated at least 50 students and police were injured, some seriously, as the police barred a student attempt to march to the rectors' office to demand release of classmates seized after a similar struggle last Friday. Coal Miner Strike At the same time, more than 7,000 miners in the Asturias coal field 280 miles north of Madrid began a strike, demanding free- dom for 10 leftist-oriented union representatives arrested for what the civil governor said was in- stigation of a Communist-inspired, 24-work stoppage. There were other strikes, in Madrid and Barcelona, as author- ities sought to end the snowballing movement of students and work- ers. At Barcelona more than 5,000 textile workers left their posts, de- manding the release of workers detained last Friday during at- tempts of opposition groups to swing a massive protest demon- stration across the nation. About 15,000 Madrid employees of the American-controlled Stan- dard Electric Co., began a similar work stoppage for the same reason. But they returned to their jobs within half an hour-and chal- lenged the management to do any- thing about their action. Protest High Costs The workers' demonstrations Friday were to protest high living costs and to seek a doubling of the existing $1.40 a day minimum wage. The students demonstrated to show support for the workers. Yesterday's violence was limited to the sprawling campus of Spain's largest institution of learning, Madrid University. After a quiet morning, there was an outbreak of fighting when police halted the student march. Students countered a clubswing- ing police charge by hurling a barrage of stones, felling several officers. * Aldo Trippini, manager of the United Press International office in Spain, and two other foreign newsmen who were watching the conflict found themselves under attack by police. VATICAN CITY (P) - Soviet President Nikolai V. Podgorny and Pope Paul VI met yesterday in the first papal audience for any Com- munist of such high rank. Infor- mants said they discussed the idea of keeping contact other than through diplomatic channels. War in Vietnam and Catholic religious life in the Soviet Union were part of the conversation dur- ing the 70 minutes they were to- gether. The audience .was unof- ficial but the Vatican surrounded FOREIGN RELATIONS HEARING: Kennan Wants Cold War End, Criticizes U.S. Asian Role it with unusual protocol and cere- mony. Podgorny went to the Vatican at the end of a week-long official visit to Italy after signing a com- munique with Italian officials call- ing for a conference of Eastern and Western European nations to discuss various problems. A brief Vatican communique said the Pope and the Soviet pres- ident spoke about "the mainten- ance of peace" and "problems about religious life and the pres- ence of the Catholic church on Soviet territory." Four bombs had exploded at Italian Communist party offices during Podgorny's Italian visit, and another bomb had damared a Rome parish church on the eve of the audience. Pope Paul greeted Podgorny at the doorway of his studio. Seated around the Pope's desk throughout the audience were the Vatican's secretary of state, Amleto Car- dinal Cicognani, several prelates and the Soviet ambassador to Italy. Relations Broken in 1917 Informants said the idea of spe- cial representation; short of re- storing diplomatic relations that were broken with the 1917 Bolshe- vik Revolution was discussed. The Vatican and Communist- Yugo- slavia agreed last year to resume representation but without ac- cording diplomatic status.
