WASHINGTON (P-President Johnson's bid for a tougher
gun control law was defeated yesterday in the House Judici-
ary Committee by a tie vote but Chairman Emanuel Celler,
(D-N.Y.) held out hope for a favorable vote next week.
The committee deadlocked 16-16 on Celler's motion to re-
port immediately the bill submitted by the administration
Monday.
The measure, introduced in the House by Celler and in
the Senate by Sen. Thomas J. Dodd, (D-Conn.), would for-
bid mail order sales of rifles and shotguns as well as hand-

Rep. William M. McCulloch,
(R-Ohio), voted against immedi-
ate action but made a motion to
reconsider the vote. It was agreed
the committee would vote again
June 20.
Celler said he expected a com-
promise version of the legislation
would be approved at that time.
At the White House, President
Johnson called on the committee
to reconsider promptly what he
called "this shocking blow to the
safety of every citizen in this
country."
Johnson said the deadlock" is a
bitter disappointment to all Amer-
icans and to the President. There
is no excuse whatsoever for fail-
ure to act to prohibit the inter-
,tate mail order sale of rifles."
A ban. on mail order sale of
pistols was included in a broad
crime control bill which Congress
sent to President 'Johnson last
week. The House completed ac-
tion on that bill following the
fatal shooting f Sen. Robert F.
Kennedy.
Following the Kennedy assassi-
nation, the National Council for a

pushed for tight federal gun con-
trol legislation.

tor of the Federal Bureau of Pris-

tion said he would prefer a law.

UNITED NATIONS ( R)-The
treaty to prevent the spread of
nuclear weapons won overwhel-
ming approval in the United Na-
tions yesterday, but more nations
abstained on the vote than ex-
pected.
The vote in the General As-
sembly's main political committee
was 92 for the resolution, four
against it, 22 abstaining and four
absent. Delegates had expected
between 100 and 105 U.N. mem-
bers to vote for the treaty.
The committee adopted a 48-
nation resolution commending the
treaty and asking that it be open-
ed for signature and ratification
as soon as possible. The assembly
will give the resolution final ap-
proval later this week, Winding up
the session.
Of the ,five nuclear powers, the
Soviet Union, the United States
and Britain cosponsored the reso-
lution and voted for it. France
abstained, and Communist China,
which is not a member of the
United Nations, called the treaty
a Soviet-U.S. plot against rev-
olutionary peoples.
Nuclear powers signing the
treaty pledge not to transfer nu-
clear weapons to countries that
don't have them,. while countries
without nuclear weapons pledge
not to acquire them.
DISARMAMENT
The nuclear powers signing also
pledge to seek nuclear disarma-
ment, spare other countries from
nuclear attack and share .with
them the peaceful benefits of nu-
clear energy.
U.S. Ambassador Arthur J.
Goldberg told the committee it
was "a historic vote" and "a good
augury for a more peaceful
world." He said the treaty was
"one of the most momentous in-
ternational agreements ever pre-
sented in the United Nations."
? But Tanzanian Ambassador
Akili B. C. Danieli said it would
only "malie the nuclear club more
exclusive." He accused the big
powers of using "blackmail and
threat" to get it accepted.
BIG POWERS
Foreign Minister Chen Yi of
Red China declared that the
treaty resolution was adopted "un-
der the manipulation of the big
powers."
The treaty names the Soviet
Union, the United States and
Britain to receive signatures and
ratifications. It is to take effect
when ratified by those three and
40 other signers.

TOKYO (K')-The presence of
American troops in Japan was
further criticized yesterday by
a special committee of Japanese
cabinet members who urged the
United States to relocate an air
base.
In addition the Tokyo city
council demanded a ban on visits
by nuclear warships, and student
demonstrators blocked a gunpow-
der shipment.
Sentiment against American
bases in Japan increased marked-
ly this month after an American
I
jet based at. Itazuke Air Base
crashed on the Kyushu University
campus.
Despite a U.S. promise to cur-
tail night flights, the cabinet
committee recommended that
Prime Minister Eisaku Sato ask
the United States to move the air
base to another site.
Chief Cabinet Secretary To-
shio Kimura said even if the full
cabinet agrees, no formal request
will be made to U.S. authorities
until a number of alternate loca-
tions can be offered.
The U.S. Embassy declined to
comment until a formal request is
made by Sato.
Sources said the Japanese are
considering asking the United
States to share the Japanese air
bases, at Tsuiki or'Miyazaki, which
like Itazuke are on Kyushu, Ja-
pan's southern island.
At Kitakyushu about 100 leftist
students charged into a railway
station and snake-danced on its
track to prevent the arrival of
1,800 tons of gunpowder for the
U.S. ammunition depot on the
city's outskirts.
