Miners Ignore de Gaulle's Work Order
FORBACH, France (R)-About 31,000 coal miners in the Lor-

TEST BAN:
Government
Defends Pact
From Critics
WASHINGTON -) -- The ad-
mininistration has fired back a
point-by-point rebuttal at Sen.
Thomas Dodd (D-Conn) and other
congressional critics of its propos-
ed nuclear test ban treaty with
the Soviet Union.
Adrian S. Fisher, deputy direc-
tor of the Arms Control and Dis-.
armament Agency, said the Unit-
ed States can retain its present
nuclear superiority better under a
treaty prohibiting tests than it
can through an uncontrolled arms
race.
Dodd and others were alarmed
that the United States has trim-
med too drastically the safeguards
it wants written into a test ban
pact to prevent cheating.
The principal one is a reduction
from 20-7 on-site inspections with-:
in the Soviet Union annually to
prevent secret underground tests,
providing the Soviets meet other
safeguards.
Fisher said that Dodd was "not
correct" in claiming that secret
Russian testing under the protec-
tion of such a treaty would present
the United States "with a choice
between surrender and annihila-
tion."

Peking Cites
Soviet Turnt
TOKYO ()-The Red Chinese
hinted yesterday they believe So-
viet Premier Nikita S. Khrush-
chev's leadership of the world
Communist movement can come'
to an unpleasant end.
In a thinly veiled attack which
came close to calling Khrushchev
a traitor to the Communist cause,
Peking reminded the Soviet leader
that "historically, none of the
splinters who betrayed Marxism.-
Leninism ever came. to pleasant
end."
The renewed assault came in the
fourth and final installment of a
long Chinese retort to the Kremlin
drawn up by Red Flag, the Peking
theoretical journal.
Deep Schism
The attacks, broadcast by Ra-
dio Peking, dramatized the depth
of the split between the Chinese,
leading as Asian Communict fac-
tion, and the Russians at the head
of the satellite and European Com-
munist-camp.
Red Flag told Khrushchev and
his followers that "if they con-
tinue to turn a deaf ear to all ad-
vice and persist in their wrong
course, it can be said for certain
that their end will be no better
than that of the old revisionists
and opportunists."
It cited Leon Trotsky and Earl
Browder among revisionists and
opportunists of the past and said
the current crop is "just as over-
bearing and arrogant."
Attack Yugoslavia
The article leveled a new attack
on Khrushchev's espousal of Yu-
goslavia, which China has describ-
ed as the major enemy of Com-
munism.
It continued, with its sights ob-
viously still set on Khrushchev,
that "some people" had signed the
1957 and 1960 International Com-
munist statements that Yugoslavia
had betrayed Communism and
then "turned around and treated
the Titoite traitors as dearly be-
loved brothers."
