SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1966 THE MICHIGAN ]DAILY PAGE THREE SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1966 THE MICHIGAN bAILY De Gaulle Denounces U.S. in Asia State Department Cool To French President's Remarks on Viet Nam PARIS (A')-President Charles de Gaulle insisted yesterday that the United States should get out of Viet Nam. He said the war can- not be won militarily and can only lead to heavier expen and moun- ting criticism. Meanwhile, State Department officials reacted i c i1 y to De Gaulle's advice. Officials said that De Gaulle's remarks represent "no substantial change of his previ- ously expressed position." Spirit of Friendship The French president, 75, said he was giving his advice in the spirit of friendship. But he said he found it "absolutely detestable for a little people to be bombaded by a very great nation." He de- clared it is up to the United States to make the first moves for bring- ing an end to "this deadly enter- prise." Further, he declared, the United 4 States must recognize that no treaty and no settlement can be valid in Asia without the parti- cipation of Communist China. He said the United States must fully understand this implies diplomatic recognition of Red China and her admission to the United Nations. End Fighting Quickly He said it would be to the ad- vantage of the United. States to end the fighting as quickly as possible, even if it did not result in the political situation they hoped for. De Gaulle spoke with supreme confidence as he addressed about 800 reporters in an ornate recep- tion room at the Elysee Palace in his semi-annaual news conference. He upheld the rightness of French foreign policy. He lauded French independence - independ- ence principally from American domination-which is the -corner- stone of his actions. Opinion Known What De Gaulle thinks about the Viet Nam war and what he thinks the United States should do there have been known since early September when the French head of state, together with Cambodia's Prince Norodom Sihanouk, sug- gested that this country proclaim a "schedule" of its withdrawal from Viet Nam. The United States and its allies feel they complied with this re- quest at the recent Manila seven- power conference when they re- solved that all their troops would leave Viet Nam within six months after North Viet Nam stopped ag- gression. Withdrawing without that, or complying with De Gaul- le's advice to let the Vietnamese "settle their own manner and by their own means," would be tant- amount to yielding to Communist aggression, A m e r i c a n officials commented. Chides West Germany In addition, De Gaulle chided West Germany for being more friendly to the United States than to France. He cautioned French voters they had better give his supporters a majority in next spri g's legislative elections or risk seeing the country slip back into disorder. His chiding of West Germany on the ground that Bonn put its Atlantic alliance links above the German-French cooperation treaty came at Chancellor Ludwig Erhard maintained only a shaky grip on the Bonn government. Four cabinet ministers of the Free Democratic party quit Thursday in a budget row and some mem- bersof Erhard's Christian Demo- cratic party are eager to see him replaced by someone more friendly to De Gaulle. Patriarchal Advice De Gaulle seemed yesterday to be giving his patriarchal advice7 mainly to Americans. Calling outt the list of the most prickly dis-I putes between France and the United States, he said:t "It seems that what we are un- dertaking, and the attitudes that we are taking, are finally useful for everyone; and especially our American friends. What we areI saying and doing for Viet Nam, or for NATO, or for the monetary system, I very sincerely think it would bet to their advantage to4 want it, and to do it themselves.", De Gaulle appeared in excellent health. His hour and a half of al-t most uninterrupted monologue; was fully the equal of past per- formances on these occasions. Ignores Question Questions from the floor were grouped into general subjects for his discourse. He ignored a ques-t tion about the possibility of a meeting with President Johnson.I He proudly declared that "in five months, no headquarters, noI unit, no base of any allied armyf will remain on our territory." Thais Give LBJ Royal Treatment NUCLEAR DELI VERY: North Viet Leaders Praise Chinese Missile Achievement -Associated Press French President Charles de Gaulle is seen during one of his rare press conferences yesterday at the Eylesee Palace in Paris. Some main topics of the session revolved around the American com- mitments in Southeast Asia, and German relations in Europe. In some flag waving, he lauded his own country's independence, and told Frenchmen they never had it so good.

As people danced in Peking's streets, Tanjug said, observers in the capital appraised the test as having great political significance. The timing of the experiment! was seen as important, too. It -ame right after the Manila con- ference, the nonaligned summit meeting in New Delhi of India, the United Arab Republic and Yugo- slavia and long after the big Com- munist meeting in Moscow. These events were jointly described by the Chinese as "great intrigues" against China and Viet Nam, the report said. Soviet Worry The Soyiet Union, with at least as - much reason to be worried about Peking's missile as other countries close to China, withheld comment. Though the announce- ment raised new questions about Soviet defenses against missiles and Soviet military dispositions along the 4,150-mile Soviet-Chi- nese border. In Hong Kong. one Western source said the test "goes to prove China is capable of producing a delivery system for atom bombs, and in another year or so China will have hundreds of missiles capable of striking any country in. Asia or beyond." Western Intelligence Western intelligence sources there said the lack of detailed in- formation on the test made it dif- ficult to asses China's true mili- tary strength. In Tokyo, the Japanese govern- ment and political parties of all hues-except the Communist-- publicly deplored the missile test. Draft IoardBadgers Carmichael on Status SAIGON, South Viet Nam (P)- An earthshaking explosion ripped up an ammunition dump yester- day night in a supply area for two U.S. infantry divisions. First reports said two American soldiers were killed and 10 in- jured. The blast blackened a surround- ing jungle and broke windows in Saigon, 12 miles away. U.S. au- thorities on the scene said they expected a heavier casualty toll. ,Large numbers of American troops are stationed in the area, just off the main highway from Saigon to Cap St. Jacques. There also is a large American hospital there. U.S. troops had just finished a hunt-and-kill mission against Viet Cong guerrillas in the area. The explosion, at 9 p.m., sent a huge orange ball rolling into the night sky. In Saigon it looked like sun- set. It came after South Vietnamese officials reported sharp battle ac- tion between Viet Cong fighters and government forces in the Mekong delta, south of the capital. Viet Cong terror squads also were active there. American ground, action cbn- tinued in a lull. The U.S. Com- mand reported American planes flew 95 bombing missions over North Viet Nam, about 30 or so below the normal daily average. B-52 bombers from Guam hit at Viet Cong troops and camps in two places. On the Political Scene The crisis in Premier Nguyen Cao Ky's military government ap- peared resolved. Informants said the crisis in Ky's regime seemed over. They said Ky replaced two dissident ministers and talked five others' out of quitting their jobs. The seven ministers resigned last week, charging that Ky's gov- ernment was dominated by offi-l cials who came from North Viet Nam when the North and South were partioned in 1954. They also complained that Brig. Gen. Ngu- yen Ngoc Loan, national security chief, was ruthless in carrying out his duty. The informants said Ky named Thai Ton, to be the economic minister, replacing Au Truong his financial adviser, Truong Thang. He also replaced Youth Minister Vo Long Trieu by naming Le Phuoc Sang, .the informants said. Supported by U.S. and South Vietnamese aircraft, 1,200 gov- ernment soldiers took on between 800 and 1,000 Viet Cong and re- ported killing 137 of them. The action took place Thursday. Of- ficials said supporting aircraft ac- counted for about 90 of the enemy dead. In Saigon, a woman was caught carrying a basket containing a white phosphorous grenade near the headquarters of Gen. William C. Westmoreland, commander of U.S. forces in Viet Nam. The B-52s from Guam struck for the second straight day at what was described as a Viet Cong troop concentration 50 miles northwest of Qui Nhon on the central coast. The second B-52 raid was against a Viet Cong base 12 miles northwest of Quang Ngai, also on the central coast. In the raids on the North Thursday, U.S. planes concen- trated on supply routes, hitting road and coastal traffic. The U.S. Command said enemy ground fire brought down one F105 Thunderchief. It was the 411th American plane reported lost over the North in the war. The pilot is listed as missing. NEW YORK (P)-"Black power" leader Stokely Carmichael, called for draft re-examination, said yes- terday if he is classified 1-A, "I'm not going to go." Carmichael, just before leaving by plane for San Francisco for a meeting, said when asked on what grounds he would refuse military service: "I don't care which it is. I'll go to Leavenworth." Carmichael has been undergoing consultations with draft officials, which were completed yesterday. Higher Law Carmichael, chairman of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee and the leading advo- cate of black power, cited the Nuremberg war crimes trials after World War II and said there is a higher law than the law of the U.S. government. Congress Increases Budget, While Claiming Economy' WASHINGTON (A)-The 1966' Congress gave a good demonstra- tion of how to appear to cut fed- eral spending while actually in- creasing it, budget experts said yesterday. Many economy speeches were hearlI in the Senate and House during the session, and Congress claimed after adjournment last Saturday that it had cut President Johnson's budget request by $883 million. Technically Correct This was technically correct, if only action on the 15 appropria- tions bills passed during the year was considered. But as administration budget officials point out, and congres- sional experts agree, the legis- lators took many other actions which will have an upward im- pact on spending this fiscal year. The Budget Bureau's tentative estimate so far is that these could force an increase of $2.5 billion or more in Johnson's planned spend- ing program for fiscal 1967 which began July 1. Senate Republican leader Ev- erett M. Dirksen of Illinois, re- porting to his colleagues on a White House session early this month, said: "You 'should have heard him on the budget. He ful- minated like Hurricane Inez. Dirksen on this occasion led a successful fight to slash $750 mil- lion which Johnson had not re- quested from the antipoverty bill. Many legislators assert that some cutbacks asked by Johnson were proposed so that Congress could be blamed for exceeding his budget. Sharp Reductions For example, he recommended sharp reductions in direct govern- ment loans for needy college stu- dents and in funds granted to im- pacted areas where schools are crowded because of the children of federal personnel. Congress rejected these cutbacks with the result that this money bill exceeded the budget by about $400 million. It refused also to go along with reductions Johnson proposed in such popular programs as school lunches, school milk and aid to land grant colleges. color. Malaysians Demonstrate As Thailand welcomed the Pres- ident, demonstrations erupted in Malaysia against Johnson's visit there tomorrow. Students at the University of Malaya in Kuala Lumpur, burned an effigy of the President after putting a big sign outside the campus saying "Come and watch the burning of Presi- dent Johnson." As night fell in the Malaysian capital, 50 Chinese marched on a hotel used by U.S. troops resting from the war in Viet Nam and bombarded it with slingshots, bricks and stones. No Americans were injured. As police strove to head off de- monstrations when Johnson ar- rives Sunday, the government radio called on, the people for "something extra, something spe- cial in our welcome to show our appreciation of the sacrifices which so many young Americans have made in Asia." Johnson expressed belief that some day even Communist China and North Viet Nam "will join our Pacific brotherhood-in peace. We look forward to that day." Ignores Missile Test He ignored publicly Peking's announcemnet of Red China's first test of a missile withisnu- clear warhead. Sources with the presidential party declined com- ment on the Chinese announce- ment pending further intelligence on what happened. At a glittering banquet with the king and Queen Sirikit as hosts, the President spoke of the right of every people to determine their own destiny. Thailand and the United States are allies in helping South Viet Nam, he declared. Long Time Ally Thailand has long been a U.S. ally and at present is the basefor about 30,000 U.S. troops, many of the mengaged in the air war against the Communists in Viet Nam. Sunday, the presidential couple flies to Malaysia, the next to last country on the chief executive's seven-nation tour. His final stop is South Korea Monday. FTC 'To Investigate Effect Of Chance Games on Prices WASHINGTON (A) - The Fed- eral Trade Commission has start- ed an investigation of promotional "games of chance" in the retail food industry to determine wheth- er they raise prices and impair competition. Legality Questioned The commission, in announcing this last night, said it is inquir- ing into the legality and competi- tive effects of "so-called 'sweep- stakes' and other games of chance." The FTC called on retailers to discontinue voluntarily any pro- motional practices that are unfair or increase prices to the house- wife. The commission said it is par- ticularly concerned that these promotional schemes, now exten- sively used by retailers throughout the country, may have increased the retail price of food and have had the effect of substantially cur- tailing price competition. Objectives Objectives of the investigation, which the commission described as intensive, were described as: p Todetermine whether these promotional schemes constitute unfair and deceptive practices in violation of laws administered by the commission. * To determine their economic consequences, including increased costs to food retailers and higher prices to consumers, and their impact on competition in food marketing. * To provide a factual basis up- on which the commission may take such effective corrective ac- tion as may be required to enforce the law. Guidelines Needed While the commission's action was unanimous, one of its five members, A. Everette Maclntyre, said he is disappointed that the commission "has not acted other- wise to provide the food retailing industry promptly with guidelines so that it may be better informed regarding the commission's views about what may or may not vio- late the Federal Trade Commis- sion Act." Want "emonstration A report from Yugoslavia's Tan- jug news agency in Belgrade said Peking's millions greeted the an- nouncement of the nuclear tri- umph with giant demonstrations, beating drums, and by displaying portraits of Mao. The first Chinese nuclear mis- sile showed China has advanced more quickly in nuclear weapons Asked if he believed his law was higher, Carmichael replied: "Cer- tainly it is." Carmichael said he expects to hear in about five days whether he will be reclassified, snd did not want to make known details of his plans until his Selective Serv- ice board issued its statement. Public Protest A Selective Service official dis- closed that the draft exemptions of both Carmichael and actor George Hamilton were being re- assessed by local boards because of mounting public protest. Hamilton is due for a physical examination Nov. 7. "Yes, this definitely was the re- sult i of public protests," said a high official of the New York headquarters of the Selective Service. He asked that his name not be used. In Washingtin, the Selective Service said that in recent months more letters have been received regarding Hamilton's draft status than regarding anyone else. After that, most protests are about heavyweight boxing champion Cassius Clay, recently re-classified as 1-A, and less frequently about Carmichael. He is currently classified as 1-Y by his local board because in the past he has failed to meet current standards for induction.' Routine Examination A spokesman for the New York Headquarters~ of the Selective Service said Carmichael has been called up for re-examination sev- eral times-a routine practice for men in his category. The most recent re-examination, he said was 9 to 12 months ago. Er 1 Sociology Colloquium "BLACK POWER: AN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE" Speaker: LEWIS M. KILLIAN World News Roundup ] Prof. of Sociology, Florida State Univ. Monday, Oct. 31, 4 P.M. West Conference Room, Rackham 1 By The Associated Press BONN, Germany - Chancellor Ludwig Erhard spent an hour yes- terday at the home of Erich Mende, who resigned Thursday as deputy chancellor. Both men said, their parties could get together again in the government soon. It was Mende's 50th birthday' and he was holding open house. He and the other three cabinet ministers of his Free Democrotic party quit on a popular issue: a tax increase that Erhard wanted and the Free Democrats opposed. One purpose of the increase would be to pay for the big arms purchases W e s t Germany is pledged to make in the United; States.
