Both men arrived in Moscow for what was officially described as a "friendship" visit. Khrushchev Lshes Chine At Celebraion for Gomulka MOSCOW -P)-Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev said yesterday the world Communist movement "is now living through definite difficulties." He blamed the "splitting activities of the Communist party of China." Khrushchev spoke at a dinner given in the Kremlin for Com- munist Party ;Chief Wladyslaw Gomulka and Premier Josef Cyran- kiewicz of Poland. They arrived yesterday by plane from Warsaw for what was officially described as a friendship visit. Welcoming the Poles at Moscow airport, Khrushchev made a brief speech, but *made no mention of the Chi- Report U.S. Vows'Win InViet Nam MANILA (P) - Southeast Asia Treaty Organization ministers met today in their second closed ses- sion to assegs the guerrilla war in South iVet Nam and other Coin- ,munist-threats to the treaty area. Thailand and The Philippines were expected to urge that SEATO take a more active part in de- terring Communist aggression and subversion. An informed source said Secre- tary of State Dean Rusk vowed that the United States would re- main in South Viet'Nam until the war against the Communist Viet Cong is won. 'Beautiful Debate' Rusk engaged in what was de- scribed as a "beautiful debate" with Foreign Minister Maurice Couve de Murville over South Viet Nam in yesterday's closed session. Coudve de Murville was quoted as replying that France, which ad- vocates neutrality for Viet Nam, would be happy with a Western tmilitary victory in South Viet Nam, but added: "If you cannot win you will have to consider a political solu- tion," Britain Joins In The source said the two men presented- their sides on the Viet Nam war effectively and soberly. Britain's Lord Alfred Carring- ton joined in the discussion by saying neutralization of Viet Nam would be a wonderful thing but not feasible with armed aggression go- ing on, the informant said.

Romney said yesterday "sever- al" Democratic legislators have told him they support his plan for congressional redistricting. The governor,. told newsmen, however, he does not know the full extent of legislative support for his plan in either party, or whether there would be enough votes to pass it, although he is sure a majority of Republicans would back it. One of the purposes of a meet- ing with Republican legislative leaders later yesterday, Romney said, was "to ascertain attitudes on both congressional and legis- lative redistricting." 'One Man, One Vote' The governor, in announcing his "one man, one vote" plan last week, set Tuesday as the dead- line for determining whether there can be bipartisan support for any plan, in order that it can be passed by April 28. Romney and Republican leg- islative leaders have said they want Democrats to give enough support to a plan to give it the two-thirdsvote needed for im- mediate effect. Romney, and the top leaders will talk over legislative reap- portionment against the back- ground, of the flurry of opinionst issued Friday by the Michigan Supreme Court, which added up to a continued postponement of a decision. Five Alternatives In view of the situation, Rom- ney said, approximately five al- ternatives are under' discussion, among them revival of a house resolution to hold lawmakers in office, or to allow the legislature to redistrict itself by law. The governor told newsmen to- day that moving the Aug. 4 pri- mary back to September "mould appear to be a necessity," and added that his personal preference would be for a September primary anyway. Voice Reve as New program Of Speakers In order to publicize a'summer project for fighting poverty, Voice political party and cooperating campus groups have designated April20kto 27 as "End to Pov- erty Week." According to a Voice publicity release, the project is designed to supplement President Lyndon B. Johnson's "War on Poverty" nese. Last night; however, Khrush- chev declared: "We do not doubt that the line of the Chinese splitters will be rejected by the Marxist-Leninist parties and the world Communist movement will rally even closer around the banner of Marxism- Leninism in the struggle for the great cause of the working class, for the victory of Communism." Even though Gomulka was here, prospects seemed to be fading for an international Communist con- ference on the Red Chinese ques- tion during celebration of Khrush- chev's 70th birthday here Friday. There was a prospect Gomulka might be leaving before the birth- day parties. Rumors circulated in Moscow early this month that a number of East European Communist lead- ers would be coming to Moscow for Khrushchev's birthday and that the occasion would be used for talks on how to deal with the independent - minded Communist Chinese. But after Gomulka arrived, a Soviet foreign ministry official was asked about fresh reports that the Polish delegation would be leaving Thursday. "It is not excluded," the official said. "They have a very short program." There has been growing evidence that a number of Communist lead- ers outside the Soviet Union are reluctant about a showdown with the Chinese. Western diplomats here feel the idea of a gathering for Khrush- chev's birthday may have been quietly dropped. Judge Upholds Inategration Of Jackson, Transportation JACKSON, Miss. (P)-A federal judge ruled yesterday Jackson can't arrest Negroes who integrate transportation facilities. United. States District Judge Sidney Mize=issued a sweeping order enjoining police from arresting Negroes who defy laws requiring seg- regation of public buses, rail and air transportation facilities.

Romney Eyes Postponingff Of August Primary in State By The Associated Press Since both congressional and legislative apportionment are tied up in the courts, it is likely that the scheduled Aug. 4 primary will have to be shoved back to September, Gov. George W. Romney said at a news conference yesterday. "It certainly appears necessary to delay the primary unless we can have some very clear cut guidelines from the United States Su- preme Court so there will be not , delay in carrying out apportion- ment," Romney said. The question of how the state House and Senate boundaries should be redrawn is currently in the state supreme court. The justices have decided they must have a controlling opinion from the United States Supreme Court before deciding which of the ap- portionment plans under consid- eration should be adopted. Congressional apportionment is currently a subject of legislative consideration. Three United States judges ruled last month the re- districting law passed in 1963 was unconstitutional and told the law- makers to pass a new, acceptable act within weeks or the 19 con- gressional seats will be filled in an at-large election this fall. CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT: Day Notes Critical Transition Period By KAREN KENAH The civil rights movement is going' through a "critical time," according to Noel Day, noted for his work with civil rights and mass justice movements. . "The movement has grown in three years from infancy to late adolscence. It is still frail in struc- ture," he added. "The qualities with which the movement started-anger, enthu- siasm and regard for humanity- are no longer enough to keep it He said the movement could be stopped both externally and in- ternally. There is a chance that business and schools will adapt to the demands of the movement so quickly that "the bottom will drop right out of it," achieving not revolution but only reform. Overstress Goals Internally, Days says, the move- ment could stop because of too much concentration on -goals and not enough on the more practical aspects.
