SUNDAY, DECEMBER 4,1966 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TIMEE 1'DYDCEBR ,96 HEMC.GN.AL 1 Cl }L LiRiV li 1:! 9: Rhodesian Conference Terminates Wilson-Smith Meeting Indicates Settlement Reached During Talks LONDON (P)-Prime Minister Harold Wilson of Britain and Ian Smith of rebel, white-minority- ruled Rhodesia ended their sea- borne summit conference yesterday amid signs that they had reached broad agreement on a settlement. Although no official word was released by either side, the at- mosphere at No. 10 Downing Street, Wilson's official residence in London, was one of scarcely concealed elation. It was considered significant that Britain was in no hurry to tell its side of the story to news- men in both London and Gibral- tar, following the two-day con- frontation aboard a Royal Navy cruiser.} The British had planned to lose no time in telling their version if there had been a breakdown, sour- ces said. Smith, who a year ago led Rho- desia to a declaration of independ- ence branded illegal by Britain, left the cruiser Tiger soon after midnight and immediately took a plane-presumably for Salisbury, his capital. He had radioed his Cabinet to assemble in Salisbury for an emergency session, presum- ably to report on the talks. Wilson remained on board the vessel overnight and was sched- uled to return to London in the morning. It appeared the two had agreed to make no announcements until Smith returned home and reported to his cabinet. The meeting was the first be- tween Wilson and Smith since the rangy ex-fighter pilot declared Rhodesia independent of Britain Nov. 11, 1965 to bar the country's four million Africans from even- tual power. Wilson went into the talks de- manding guarantees that Rhode- sia's 250,000 whites will end the rebellion and permit eventual Afri- can rule in Rhodesia. ' Failure would toss the crisis to the United Nations. Its African and Asian members are eager to cut off Rhodesia economically from the outside world and use force to oust Smith if possibles In case of failure, Britain has circulated a resolution for the U.N. Security Council calling for a worldwide ban on trade in Rho- desia's main export goods. The draft of the resolution lack- ed stiff enforcement procedures possible under the U.N. charter, presumably to provide a bargain- ing counter against African and Asian delegates who will demand stronger action no matter what Britain proposes. The House of Commoms has been promised a statement about 7 p.m. tomorrow, no matter what the outcome. Wednesday has been set aside for a debate. If a settlement has been reached, Smith will be at a disadvantage when explaining it to his col- leagues. It would expose him to the threat of an ouster by extremists who might think any compromise to be a humiliating retreat. Test Bomb Detecting Mechanism Soviets, French To Make Payments on Debt to U.N.

LITTLE DAMAGE: Viet Cong Larn c Two At HIt Saigon's Airport, Bullding SAIGON OP) - The Viet Cong launched a double-barreled attack on Saigon yesterday, hitting the capital's huge air base with mor- tars and a ground attack and then three hours later blasting a U.S. headquarters and billet downtown. American officials said 11 U.S. Army soldiers were wounded in the downtown billet blast, none ser- iously. At the Tan Son Nhut Air Base on Saigon's outskirts, U.S. and allied} casualties and material damage were all described as light. U.S. spokesmen said 17 Viet Cong were killed at the base and one captured in a firefight after the mortar attack. They said the fighting ended shortly before 6 a.m., about 4% hours after the initial mortar barrage. An allied reaction force was re- ported to have pinned down a number of the attackers inside the base defense perimeter before the firefight ended. The building that was blasted downtown is called the Kinh Do, which adjoins the main headquar- ters in Viet Nam of the U.S. Agency for International Develop- ment, Windows in the AID building were shattered by the blast, but apparently there were no casual- ties or other damage there. The Kinh Do, a foi'mer theatre, houses a headquarters of a U.S. Army psychological warfare unit and part of it is used as a tran- sient billet. One demolition team officer on the scenes yesterday said it was believed a charge had been plant- ed on the roof of the building and set off by a timing device. But other investigators said an explosive device apparently had been planted on the ground floor i l l i 1 1 i l 1 d 7 7 t and the blast tore upward through Vietnamese and U.S. air police. the building.

The spherical cavity, almost as high as a nine-story office build- ing and 110 feet across, was cre- ated in October, 1964, by the de- tonation of a nuclear explosive with much greater' power than yesterday's device. The earlier one had the equivalent yield of 5,000 tons of TNT. The idea of yesterday's blast was to make the first major test of the theory of "decoupling," or muffling, of a nuclear under- ground blast. This theory, previously support- ed by tests with nonnuclear high high explosives, holds that if a nuclear device is detonated within some kind of a cavity, its built-in explosive power can be masked up to 400 times-as compared with a device of similar built-in punch exploded in a closely confined l area. That is, the "decoupling" con- cept holds, an underground blast -if detonated under the right cir- cumstances--can be made to ap- pear far less powerful than it actually is, and could possibly es- cape long-range detection. Sensitive seismographs to rec- ord the power-or the extent of apparently toned down power- were deployed all the way from close-in points out to distances of 1,200 miles, including a network in Montana. But, long before preliminary findings on their readings were available, nonscientific observers were agreed that the blast was somewhat of a real "sneak." i cP Whar a Roadblock' PARIS (PX)-Premier Alexei N. Kosygin yesterday called the Viet Nam conflict "the world's No. 1 problem," the main roadblock to good relations between Moscow and Washington. Speaking and replying to ques- tions at a luncheon of the French Diplomatic Press Association, the visiting Soviet leader called for a settlement of the Vietnamese war on the basis of the Hanoi and Viet Cong positions. This would mean a halt to American aerial bombardment of the North, with- drawal of American troops and eventual, removal of the Saigon government. Kosygin, on a nine-day official visit to France, said the Vietnam- ese conflict is the cause of many international problems. He said all mankind is extremely preoccupied by the continuing fight in Viet Nam, which must be ended as soon as possible. In reply to one question, Kosygin smoothly declined to slam the European door in America's face- as French President Charles de Gaulle has proposed-and said any future conference on European security could be open to Amer- ican participation. Such a conference has been fre- quently proposed over the years, to write a European settlement and guarantee security of Eur- opean states. Kosygin was asked if he favored such a meeting and if the United States should be in- cluded. "We favor the holding of a con- ference on European security. It seems to us that the European countries could meet to exaine the situationin Europe with a view to reducing tension and to assuring rapid economic develop- ment," Kosygin said. U.S. Participation As for the eventual participa- tion of the United States in such a conference, this is something for the European countries as a whole to decide," he added. The premier later was asked how relations between Moscow and Washington might be improved. It was in this connection that he mentioned Viet Nam. He said the Soviet Union desires "good and normal" relations with the United States, but that a settlement of the Vietnamese conflict is the con- dition of better relations. Kosygin made these other points: * West Germany must recog- nize, once and for all, that no ex- terior force can ever erase the existence of two German states- the Federal Republic in the West anld the East German regime. West Germany must also accept the postwar frontiers of Germany. " Soviet relations with Red China are "very complex" and per- sons who want 'to know the Soviet position should study the full statement on this question in a re- cent issue of Pravda. He dismissed the Red Guards as "only a detail" and no threat to peace. " De Gaulle's withdrawal of French troops from the North At- lantic Treaty Organization inte- grated command system was "an act of peace" which the Soviet "applauds." The Soviet Union, be said, favors dissolution of al mili- tary blocs and would agree to dis- band the Warsaw Pact organiza- tion if NATO is liquidated. out, replied, "No, no, no, it's not ruled out." Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Vasily V. Kuznetsov earlier paid a call on Thant in his office. He said he congratulated Thant on his re-election Friday night to a new five-year term. Soviet delegation spokesmen in- sist that Kuznetsov is here just to attend the assembly. Other dip- lomats say he came especially for the negotiations that led up to Thant's accepting re-election. But some Communist sources have pointed out that he is an expert on Asian questions and speculated that he is discussing Viet Nam. The war in Viet Nam is the main Asian question on Thant's mind. He told the assembly Friday that "this war must be ended" and promised to make every effort to promote a peaceful, just solution. On the unanimous recommen- dation of the Security Council, the assembly had just re-elected Thant unanimously 'to a new term ending Dec. 31, 1971. He was ex- I plaining why he had agreed to stay after hesitating so long be- cause of the war, the UN's poor financial situatioi and other dif- ficulties. He said he had been "encour- aged to believe that, in the near future, the financial situation will be greatly alleviated by actions under consideration by some member states." Sources in a position to know explained. that since early No- vember, the Soviet Union, France and the United States had been holding secret talks on when each should make a voluntary contri- bution and how much it should be. Some said one difficulty was that the Russians wanted the Americans to make a bigger con- tribution than their own and the Americans refused to do that.

Seven American servicemen and a Vietnamese were killed and more than 100 persons were wounded in that incident.

I II E 7 WLa N 11. 1 / In Hungary Election; MACAO ( - Pro-Communist Chinese surged through this six- square-mile Portuguese enclave on China's south coast for five hours yesterday, sacking City Hall, beat- ing up officials and fighting police in rioting that bore earmarks of Peking direction. One of the dem- onstrators' demands was that po- lice burn their night sticks. There were unconfirmed reports that one policeman was beaten to death and that three Chinese rioters were shot. Portuguese authorities faced their worst crisis since Red Chi- nese artillery fired into the en- clave during a border dispute in 1952. In Lisbon, Portuguese govern- ment officials had no comment on the rioting, saying they were awaiting word from Macao au- thorities. Unrest It was the third outburst in four' days. The unrest stemmed from a clash in mid-November between Portuguese territorial police and workers clearing a site for a pro- Communist school. A broadcast saying Portuguese authorities had yielded to Chinese demands brought a halt to the rioting by nightfall but Portu- guese troops patrolled the streets to enforce an all-night curfew. The broadcast that ended the violence was made by Ho Yin, 56, a multimillionaire who serves as Macao's unofficial go - between with Red China. Ho did not list the demands to which he said gov- ernment officials had. yielded. The pro-Communist Chinese had blamed police for brutality that caused the clash at the school site last month. Police had gone there to halt work on the school, saying it had not been approved by Macao's Public Works Depart- ment. The rioters, many of whom shouted quotations from Chinese Communist chief Mao Tse-tung, demanded a public apology and admission of error by the govern- ment because of police interfer- ence with construction of the school. World News Roundup BUDAPEST, Hungary (A)-Janos Kadar won re-election as Hun- gary's Communist Party chief yes- terday after calling for expansion of relations with the United States. At the same time, the party trim- med its hierarchy. "We want normalization of rela- tions," Kadar said in his closing speech to the party's congress here. "We want political, economic, sci- entific and other relations with the United States as well. "If we find a similar readiness on their part, our relations (an be normal. Kadar's speech was made Friday night but made public Saturday. In the minor shakeup of the Hungarian Communist Party hier- archy, the politburo was reduced from 12 members to 11. Dropped aparently because of their ages were Ferenc Muennich, 80, and Miklos Somogyi, 70. Both had been top members. One new member was added. He is Rezsoe Nyers. Kadar, 54, became head of the T- i i ftr th - amnesty for political prisoners. Kadar also had extended a wel- come for Hungarians who are not Communists to participate in re- constructing the nation, saying: "He who is not against us is with us." In his final congress speech he seemed to expand on the offer. "Everybody is with us who earns his bread by honest work," he said. After his election as party chief, Kadar conferred with So- viet Communist leader Leonid I. Brezhnev, who led foreign Com- munist officials at the congress. An announcement of the meeting said it was "cordial and friendly" and that "questions of mutual in- terest were discussed." 1, ______________________________ I A ART PRINTS DUE By The Associated Press WASHINGTON - Rep. Adam Clayton Powell's House colleagues are cautiously awaiting further developments before making up their minds whether to bar him from the 90th Congress. Despite'their present reluctance to commit themselves on the pro- posal to deny the New York Dem- ocrat a seat when Congress con- venes Jan. 10, their private com- ments make one thing clear:. The flamboyant Harlem preach- er-politician is in the most serious difficulty of his 22-year congres- sional career. Talkswith House leaders and influential members of both par- ties disclose a wide sympathy for the announced intention of Rep. Lionel Van Deerlin, (D.-Calif), to challenge Powell's seating if Pow- ell still is in contempt of court on Jan. 10. Whether that sympathy can be turned into the votes needed to excluse the 57-year-old Negro from Congress apparently is question- able. WASHINGTON-A Senate sub- committe said yesterday night re- ports from 21 manufacturers of foreign autos imported into the United States disclosed 127 recall campaigns on 1960-66 models to correct safety-related defects. The 'data were submitted to the subcommitte on Executive Reor- ganization. Chairman Abraham A. Ribicoff, (D.-Conn.), requested it last May in connection withan inquiry into highway safety after domestic automobile makers had supplied similar information. Ribicoff said, "The information supplied by the manufacturers would thus appear to indicate that only 7.5 per cent of the cars con- tained defects warranting a re- call campaign." WASHINGTON-Sen.
