Decision on Deadlock
To Pick Between
Maddox, Callaway
ATLANTA () - Three federal
judges said yesterday they will not
allow election of a governor by the
Georgia legislature to decide the
deadlocked race between Repub-
lican Howard H. Callaway and
Democrat Lester G. Maddox.
This raised the prospect of a
runoff election within the next
month-either by state action or
court order.
Thercourt delayed its formal
order until next Tuesday. But the
judges made plain their intention
of voiding the state constitution's
provision for a legislative decision.
Neither Callaway nor Maddox
received a majority in the general
election Tuesday because of a
strong write-in vote for former
Gov. Ellis G. Arnall, a Democrat.
Maddox, a segregationist, had de-
feated Arnall, a moderate, earlier
for the Democratic nomination.
Two-hour Hearing
Chief Judge Elbert P. Tuttle of
the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals
said after a two-hour hearing that
there was an agreement that the
Georgia Constitution's provision
for a legislative election could not
be allowed to stand.
Tuttle and the other members
of the panel-Judge Griffin B. A Titan
Bell of the 5th Circuit and Dis. Cape Ke
Judge Lewis R. Morgan-gave the Lovell Jr.
state until Nov. 25 to come up
with a legal solution, perhaps a
run-off election under a 1964 state GENER
law.

Gemini 12,
Agena Dock
Successfully
Meeting in Space'
Marks High Point of
Gemini Grand Finale
CAPE KENNEDY (?) - Their
64,000-mile cosmic chase a suc-
cess, the Gemini 12 pilots caught a
Speedy Agena rocket last night,
then got set to hitch to it as they1
charged deeper into the four-day,
finale of historic Project Gemini.
Laconic astronauts James A.
Lovell Jr. and Edwin E. Buzz Al-
drin Jr. nudgeddclose to the 26-
foot target high over the Indian
Ocean, racing out of darkness into
sunlight at 17,500 miles an hour.
They planned to crank the vola-
tile rocket about midnight to shove
them into a high-flying orbit 460
miles above earth so Aldrin can
get dramatic pictures of the Unit-
ed States during an excursion out-
side the spaceship today.
However, they decided later to
cancel the shift the high orbit,
because of a series of problems
that kept them busy throughout
the night.
Trackers noted that when the
Agena's engine was fired up in
space earlier in the afternoon,
they got an indication something
was wrong in the turbine pump.
The five-mile-a-second chase
lasted some 31/2 hours. Like two
hunters closing in on their prey,
they swooped up from beneath
and matched the speed of the
Agena.
"We've got visual," barked Al-
rin as ht gazed about 35 miles
into the distance at the speeding
rocket.
However, much of the commu-
nications between Mission Control
and the spacecraft were choppy
and garbled.
"You're 'go' for docking," said
Mission Control as the spacecraft
passed out of range of one traack-
ing station.
The astronauts also had some
difficulty keeping 'their radar
beam firmly locked onto the target
in a swap of signals. They tried
several means of checking to see
if the units worked properly, then
finally decided to skip the radar,
and perform the rendezvous with
their own navigation.
camps within the zone.
About 25,000 Americans are now
committed against the Viet Cong's
already bloodied 9th Division,
whtich they probably outnumber
5 to 1, in that jungle territory
centered 65 miles northwest of
Saigon.
Though the day's contacts were
minor, the count of enemy dead in
more than a week of fighting rose
to 900. Some American infantry
units have been hit hard, but
over-all U.S. losses were still of-
ficially called light in this re-
staging of battle over land the al-
lies previously have penetrated,
but never found the manpower to
occupy.

losses in the war rose to 774.
The Viet Cong staged a mortar
attack on a Vietnamese army de-
pendents camp in the the Mekong
delta.
Developments abroad included
a declaration from United Nations
Secretary-General U Thant that
the United States should halt the
bombing of North Viet Nam with-
out condition and with "no time,
limit."
A Vatican spokesman indicated+
Pope Paul VI will call for another
Christmas cease-fire, the spokes-,
man saying "in my opinion a truce
could easily fall within the papal
acts for peace."
Fly 83 Missions
Following up 83 missions flown
in bad weather Thursday, Amer-
ican pilots slashed again at Northa
Viet Nam.
A. U.S. spokesman announced
the loss of a propeller-driven Air
Force AlE Skyraider, felled by
Communist ground gunners just
above the border. The pilot was
rescued unhurt.
Hanoi broadcasts declared five
U.S. planes were shot down over
the, central area of North Viet
Nam and several pilots captured.1
By official count here, 422
planes and four helicopters have
been downed by enemy fire in
North Viet Nam and 133 planes+
and 215 helicopters in the south.
The camp that was the target of
guerrilla mortars was at Chuong
Thien, a provincial capital in the
rce-rich delta 102 miles southwest
of Saigon. A government spokes-
man said three militiamen and 11
women and children were killed
and 32 wounded.
Although McNamara's statement
amounted to the first public an-
nouncement of the Soviet move,
observers pointed out that the De-
fense Department long had been
aware of Soviet antimissile devel-
opment.
Nasty Russians
Seven months ago U.S. officials
reported that the Soviet Union
apparently had started to build
ference at the Texas White House
-as a restatement of his previous,
position on the deployment of the
Nike X.
The defense chief said, speaking
of talks between him and Presi-
dent Johnson: "We concluded that
it is much too early to make a
decision for deployment against
the Chinese threat, and we have,
not arrived at any decision on any
other deployment."j
CDU Seeks To Cover Past
Of Ex-Nazi in Support Bid
BONN, West Germany (A')-In a.

the government moved yesterday
to play down Kurt Georg Kiesing-I
er's Nazi past and to praise his,
contribution to European unity.

ernment spokesman, Karl-Guen-

would resign, it necessary, to build
a new government after the Free
Democratic party withdrew from
a coalition with his party because
of the government's handling of
the budget.
. The Christian Democrats now
need to line up 249 votes of the
496 in the Bundestag to put their
choice into effect. Since they have
only 245 votes, they have to seek
support from the Free Democrats,
who control 49, or from West Ber-
lin Mayor Willy Brandt's Socialist
party, which h7olds 202.
Brandt said in a radio broadcast
he would be ready to take over as
ed up its personnel with technical
experts from the Army Material
Command. The Army explained it
wanted to be ready for the intro-
duction of the Nike X as soon as
a go-ahead was given.
Other Sources
But other sources noted that the
defense secretary also had an-
nounced he would ask Congress
for funds to produce and deply the
multibillion-dollar Poseidon mis-
sile system. This would require a
complete refitting of most of the
U.S. contingent of Polaris sub-
marines. McNamara estimated
that cost as "somewhere in excess
of 60)per cent of the initial cost"
of the vessels.
These sources argue that the
decision to go ahead with the, of-
fensive threat of the Poseidon
missiles indicates that McNamara
will delay, again a decision on the
future deployment of the Nike X
pending future research. He has
told Congress he had yet to be
fully convinced that the com-
plicated system would be effective
either in stopping Soviet missiles
or in deterring a Soviet attack.
The decision on future deploy-
ment of the Nike X belongs to the
President, but most officials be-
lieve he will go along-as he has
in the past-with McNamara's
recommendations.
Although the United States has
spent more than $2 billion for re-
search on the Nike X, McNamara
is known to believe that the Rus-
sians still could penetrate it and
kill millions of Americans, no mat-
ter how much money is spent.

neva protocol, and therefore an
international crime.
In describing their use as on the
fringe of genocide he used a term
usually applied to the actions of
the Nazis against the Jews in
World War II.
The United States has said it
employs tear gas as a control
measure similar to that used by
police everywhere. Chemical agents
are used in the defoliation of for-
ests in order to expose Viet Cong
concentrations.
In another aspect of the Viet
Namhsituation, Secretary-General
U Thant reaffirmed in stronger
language than before his three-
point plan for bringing the war-
ring Viet Nam parties to the con-
ference table.
In a message to Lord Brockway,
chairman of the British Council
for Peace in Viet Nam, Thant said
that the United States should
cease the bombing of the North
without conditions and with no
time limit.
This is the first point of his
plan, and Thant stressed it could
stand alone as a first step. His
other two points are a scaling
down of military activities by both
sides, and recognition of the Viet
Cong as a participant in peace
negotiations.
U.S. Ambassador Arthur J.
Goldberg has said he considered
the Thant plan a package, but a
spokesman for Thant declared
that "No. 1 is No. 1, and it has
to be implemented at the first
step."

OTIS AIR FORCE BASE, Mass.
-Hampered by blinding rain
squalls, air and surface craft yes-
terday scanned the Atlantic for
survivors of an Air Force Constel-
lation which crashed some 120
miles due east of Nantucket.
There was no trace of the 19
men aboard the four-engine EC-
121H, a radar patrol plane out of
Otis Air Force Base.
Air Force officials said debris
found in the areas definitely was
identified as part of the plane
which disappeared from radarl
screens early Friday morning.
The Air Force, in releasing
names of the crew, refused to say
they were killed, instead, listing
them as missing in the hope that
some of the searching craft might
find them drifting on life rafts
in the stormy sea.

HOMER, Mich.-Three railroad
tank cars filled with potentially
lethal gas leaped the track in this
southern Michigigan town yester-
day and crashed against petro-
leum storage tanks, touching off
a fierce five-hour blaze.
Hundreds of residents roused
from sleep by the impact were
evacuated from a three-block area,
but by nightfall authorities said
all danger of explosions or leaking
gas was over. The evacuees were
sent home. Miraculously, there
were no injures.
The tank cars were among 25
units which hurtled the track as
the New York Central freight
rolled through town at sunrise en
route from Elkhart, Ind., to De-
troit, 85 miles to the east, and
then New York.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex.-President
Johnson kept busy at his ranch
desk yesterday and sent word
there might be a decision Sunday
about his surgery-the time and
place.
"I want to assure you it is noth-
ing serious," presidential aide
George Christian told reporters.
Johnson, who is scheduled to
undergo double surgery to remove
a throat polyp, and repair an in-
cision hernia at the site of last
year's gall bladder operation, has
been troubled for the past several
days by the aching arm.
The doctors have looked at it,
Christian said, and report it's only
minor. Asked the source of the
trouble, Christian said: "I don't
know."
The decision on the Presidents'
operations, Christian said, may
be forthcoming by Sunday-but'
not before.
