China Warns
U.S. Against
Optimism
Ambassador Asserts
Full Commitments
To North Vietnamese
WARSAW, ()-Communist Chi-
na's ambassador said yesterday it
would be a "grave historical blun-
der" for the United States to un-
derestimate Chinese willingness to
support North Viet Nam in its con-
flict with the Americans.
He also sought to dispel any
idea of a "U.S.-Chinese reconcilia-
tion" which might have been fos-
tered by a Peking statement the
day before.
Emerging from another in an
11-year series of ambassadorial
talks with the U.S. envoy in War-
saw, the Chinese declared that any
attempt to use the 1954 Geneva
agreements as a way out of the
Viet Nam war "will never succeed."
Downgrade 1954 Agreements
This was a repetition and a re-
emphasis of recent Chinese declar-
ations downgrading the 1954
agreements, which ended the
French-Vietnamese war, as the
basis for settlement of the present
4conflict.
Ambassador Wang Kuochuan,
leaving his meeting with U.S. Am-
bassador John A. Gronouski, broke
an 11-year-old policy of silence on
what goes on at such meetings. He
called reporters and issued a long
statement, in which he singled out
the Soviet Union for a new attack.
"Singing a Duet"
The Soviet leaders and the U.S.,
he said, "singing a duet, have
spread deceptive propaganda in a
vain attempt to create an impres-
sion of Chinese-U.S. reconcilia-
tion."
A few days earlier, a statement
by Foreign Minister Chen Li to
Japanese visitors in Peking-that
China had not necessarily dismiss-
ed the idea of talks with the U.S.
on Viet Nam-had raised hopes in
Washington of a changing Chinese
attitude.
atThe Warsaw statement, Wash-
ingtoii reports said, tended now to
dash those hopes.
Red Guards
In Peking, China's youthful Red
Guards have been told to keep
hands off farms and factories, the
Soviet news agency Tass reported
Syesterday.
Created last month to aid in the
antiparty purge, the Red Guards
have been warned by Defense Min-
ister Lin Piao to curb the violence
of their campaign.
Tass said the official People's
Daily pointedly declared:
"Tie Red Guards and revolu-
tionary students are not to call at
industrial enterprises, or people's
communes, not to interfere in their
affairs or to take part in discus-
sions there.
Affects Production
"Interference by outsiders who
are not well aware of the situation
easily affects normal progress of
production."
As told by Tass, however, the
young militants have stepped up
activities in Peking to promote
the "cultural revolution"-as the
purge is called. Tass said they had
6 plastered walls in Peking with
proclamations saying:
-Every street, every home, ev-
ery man, and all new bicycles,
cars, planes and trains, should
carry the sayings or the picture of
party Chairman Mao Tze-tung.
-Every man should have a copy
of the utterances of Mao Tze-tung,
carry it with him constantly, study
it all the time and act in every
case in accordance with what is
stated in it."-

-Loudspeakers must be placed
in every square in Peking so they
can popularize Mao. Writers and
! artists must create characters who
study and follow Mao's teachings.
-Old customs such as visits to
relatives and purchase of fruit and
sweets for relatives must be abol-
ished.
-All Chinese with feudal or
bourgeois names must go to police
stations and have their names
changed.
-On leaving their homes, all
landowners, counterrevolutionar-
ies, subversive elements, right-wing
elements and capitalists must put
on a tablet with the inscription
"scum."

it reversed itself yesterday and
accepted a speeded-up version
passed by the Senate and recom-
mended by House-Senate con-

the administration and organized

Rep. William H. Ayres (R-
Ohio) proposed delaying the in-
crease as a brake on the present

John W. McCormack (D-Mass)

Mora was found guilty yesterday
by a United States Army general
court-martial of disobeying orders
to go to Viet Nam, and was sen-

Lt. Col. Richard L. Rice, who

He added that the sentence could

CAPE TOWN, South Africa (R)
-The ruling Nationalist party
pledged its "unshakable determin-
ation" yesterday to follow the
apartheid policies of Prime Mini-
ster Hendrik F. Verwoerd. But
elsewhere in Africa there were bit-
ter words for the assassinated
leader.
In Addis Ababa, Ethiopian For-
eign Minister Tesfaye Gabre-Eg-
zy issued a statement saying the
assassination "is the natural re-
sult of apartheid, which breeds
blind hate and evil."
He said it would have "a pro-
found impact on the way the rac-
ists run the country" but doubted
if it would reverse the policy of
apartheid.
"The Sharpeville butcher stabbed
to death," read the banner in the
New Times of Addis Ababa, refer-

Hano Rejects U.S.

Timetable
By The Associated Press
President Johnson's offer to set
a timetable for removal of United
States troops from South Viet
Nam whenever he sees a Commu-
nist schedule for halting infiltra-
tion from the North was rejected
as nonsense in Hanoi yesterday.
The scoffing comment on Nhan
Dan, the official paper of Presi-
dent Ho Chi Minh's Communist,
party, was broadcast by the North
Vietnamese News Agency.
Of Johnson's statement on the
issue in Detroit last Monday, Nhan
Dan said it was made with "the
fury of a guilty person who, short
of argument, is talking nonsense."
North Viet Standl
The paper reiterated the North
Vietnamese stand for ending the
war that the U.S. must, first of all,
withdraw its troops from the;
South.
Meanwhile in Saigon a captur-
ed Communist document showed
yesterday that the Viet Cong anti-
cipate great difficulty in carrying
out their avowed aim of sabotag-
ing South Viet Nam's election Sun-
day.
The secret Communist action
order urged agitators to carry on
the campaign through election;
day.
These directions largelydcon-1
firmed what has been pevident
throughout the election period.
The order, however, also disclosed
in an indirect manner that the
Communists were far from sure
their campaign would succeed.
Secret Order
The secret order proclaimed
that all Vietnamese were against
the election. But it added, "the,
determination of the masses is not
very high."
The directive also expressed lit-
tle faith that the minority move-
ment of radical Buddhists would
mount an effective boycott as their
leaders claim.

ricans in South African rioting
after Verwoerd took over as prime
minister in 1958.
"He who raises the sword shall
perish by the sword," said the En-
glish language Voice of Ethiopia.
"Evil Genius"
In Lusaka, the capital of Zam-
bia, the Times of Zambia said in
an editorial under the heading
"Death of an evil genius" that
there were few who more deserved
a violent death than Verwoerd.
"The society he created in South
Africa is sick," said the Times.
"For him, at the second onset, the
sickness has proved mortal."
In the United Arab Republic,
Cairo's government radio said "the
elimination of Verwoerd should en-
courage the African and Asian
peoples to carry on they struggle
against the hated system of apart-
heid."
"Total Racism"
In Moscow, the Soviet govern-
ment paper Izvestia said that "for
millions of honest people in Afri-
ca and all over the world," Ver-
woerd was "the embodiment of the
monstrous doctrine of total rac-
ism."
Any thought that South Africa's
segregation policy might be weak-
ened by the assassination was
shattered when the prime mini-
ster's Nationalist party caucus
met.
After adopting a message ex-
pressing "deep appreciation for
the invaluable services which the
deceased rendered to his country,"
the members of Parliament prom-
ised to carry on his policies.

incident of this kind."
The silver-haired mayor, who
climbed on top of a car and tried
to calm the jeering, angry Negroes
during the disorder, said: "If Sto-
kley Carmichael, national chair-j
man of SNCC, is looking for a bat-
tleground, he created one last'
night, and he'll be met in what-
ever situation he cares to create."
Unavailable for Comment
Carmichael, along with other
SNCC members, was in the area!
before the rioting began, but he
was not seen there later. He was
unavailable yesterday for com-
ment.
Officers said SNCC representa-
tives urged the crowd to demon-
strate and denounced police offi-
cers as they chanted "black pow-
er."
Seventy-two persons were ar-
rested and 15 injured during the
outbreak-the worst the city has
experienced in modern times -
which broke out after a white po-
liceman shot a Negro wanted on
a car-theft charge.

Police arrested 10 persons at the
riot scene after a crowd gathered
and began passing out leaflets and
shouting "black power." Officers
ordered the crowd to disperse and
those who refused were taken
away in paddy wagons. Order
quickly was restored.
Allen shocked some of his con-
stituents several years ago when
he testified at a congressional
hearing in favor of the public ac-
commodations bill. This made his
position unique among major
Southern politicians.
But this made his job in Atlan-
ta a little tougher. He said the
public accommodations law was
necessary to avoid racial violence.
Devoid of Violence
And up until Tuesday, Atlanta
was devoid of major racial distur-
bances.
"We've had quite a supply of
riot equipment, including an arm-
mm taaMm m mm m -sm mm=mMm m m mR

ored car, on hand for years," Po-
lice Chief Herbert Jenkins said.
"This was the first time we've
had to use it-and I hope it's the
last. The ammunition and tear gas
we had to use is being replaced
now," the chief said.
Asked by a Negro reporter if the
rioters were already angered by
the shooting of a Negro before
SNCC members arrived, Allen said:
"The man the police arrested
had a long criminal record. He
was a known crook. He was being
approached for the safety of all
citizens. He ran away and it was
necessary to shoot."
The mayor said assessment of
property damage has not been
completed but said it does not ap-
pear to be too severe. Five police
cars were damaged when bricks
and bottles were thrown through
windows and a newsman's car was
overturned.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO READ
1000 to 2000 WORDS A MINUTE
WITH FULL COMPREHENSION & RETENTION
EAST PRESSURE-SAVE TIME-IMPROVE CONCENTRATION
You can read 150-200 pages an hour using the ACCELERATED READING method.
You'll learn to comprehend at speeds of 1,000 to 2,000 words a minute-3 to 6 times as fast
as you read now. And retention is excellent.
This is NOT a skimming method; you definitely read every word.
You can apply the ACCELERATED READING method to textbooks and factual
material as well as to literature and fiction. The author's style is not lost when you read at
these speeds. In fact, your accuracy and enjoyment in reading will be increased.
Consider what this new reading ability will enable you to accomplish - in your
required reading and in the additional reading you want to do. You'll save many hundreds
of hours.
No machines, projectors, or apparatus are used while learning the ACCELERATED
READING method. Thus you avoid developing ANY dependence upon extenal equipment in
reading rapidly. The new reading skill is permanently retained for this reason.
Afternoon classes and Evening classes in ACCELERATED READING will be taught
each TUESDAY, at the BELL TOWER INN, adjacent to the U. of M. campus, beginning on
October 4. The semester ends on December 6. This is our seventh semester of classes in
Ann Arbor.
