Calls for Fuller
Application of 1949
Geneva Conventions
WASHINGTON (A') - President
Johnson yesterday assailed as re-
volting, repulsive and deplorable
Hanoi's threats to try captured
American fliers as war criminals.
But he shied away from counter-
threats and offered to talk in-
stead.-
"We are ready," he said, "to sit
down at a conference table under
the sponsorship of the Interna-
tional Committee of the Red
Cross, to discuss ways in which
the Geneva conventions of 1949
can be given fuller and more com-
plete application in Viet Nam."
These conventions provide that
prisoners of war-whether a de-
clared or undeclared war-must be
protected against acts of violence
or intimidation and against in-
sults and public curiosity.
Officials said later that this
willingness has been conveyed to
the North Vietnamese through
roundabout diplomatic channels.
Johnson said, though, that there
is no indication Hanoi wants to
iscuss prisoners, peace, or any-
thing else.
Meanwhile, he said, more man-
power will be needed in Viet Nam.

In Britain
Brown Threatens To
Resign Over Internal
Spending Austerity
LONDON ()-Prime Minister
Harold Wilson yesterday announc-
ed stringent economic measures
that could hit Britons with the
bleakest austerity since World War
II and affect British support of
the North Atlantic Treaty Orga-
nization.
The time has come "for every
one of us to earn a full day's pay
by putting in a -full day's work,"
Wilson told the nation in a broad-
cast last night. It followed his
call in the House of Commons for
a freeze on wages, prices and div-
idends. He slashed the nation's
spending by nearly $2 billion in a
bid to save the pound.
Wilson's chief economic expert,
Deputy Prime Minister George
Brown, who favors a policy of ex-
pansion, at first threatened to re-
sign, posing the Labor government
with a major crisis. But then
Brown said- he would stay on and
fight to make success of the gov-
ernment's policies.
In an offshoot of the far-rang-
ing program, Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer James Callaghan flew
immediately to Bonn to ask West
Germany to picg up the foreign
exchange tab for the 51,000-strong
British Rhine army.
Callaghan said he and West
German Finance Minister Rolf
Dahlgruen were "going to exam-
ine the very heavy costs of keep-
ing our troops and airmen" in
Germany, heartland of a NATO al-
liance already hit with French
President de Gaulle's decision to
withdraw.
Asked if he brought an ultima-
tum for Bonn to pay or face with-
drawal, Callaghan replied: "We
have no ultimatum for allies and
friends."
Wilson'sadvisers felt the impact
of the government's new austerity
program would be dulled if not lost
in the nation if it had been accom-
panied by Brown's resignation.
Labor members of Parliament
were reported to have joined in a
* move urging Brown to remain. A
number of them signed a motion
asking him not to quit.
A central feature of the govern-
ment's new emerkency program
was a call by Wilson for a wage-
prive-dividend standstill with the
aim of stablizing the economy.
Other measures will have the ef-
fect of cutting back public and
private investment at home and
abroad and introducing a vast
range of curbs to limit the runa-
way spending power of the British
people. All this cuts across the ex-
pansionism for which Brown has
fought in policymaking.
The program hit the heavily
burdened British taxpayer with a
10 per cent increase in some taxes.
It jolted the man in the street
hard with new taxes and curbs,
ranging from more expensive cig-
arettes, beer and gasoline to
tougher installment buying terms.

LACK OF FUEL:
Gemini Space Walk Cut Short

CAPE KENNEDY (P) - Gemini
10 pilot Michael Collins cut short
a dramatic cosmic escapade 247
miles above earth yesterday when
his spaceship ran low on pre-
cious fuel trying to stay close to
an old, powerless rocket.
He spent less than half the time
he wanted to on his celestial stroll,
but did have time to become the
first man ever to touch another
satellite caught in space.
Yesterday's adventure was a
high spot of the bold three-day
journey in space.
Walk Shortened
For about half an hour, Collins
was a breathing, talking, human
satellite of the earth - flicking
around with a nifty space gun. But
the order came: "Get back in."
Mission control issued the or-
der when command pilot John W.
Young began using too much fuel
from the already low tanks trying
to stay close to the Agena rocket
-bled of all its power. Gemini 10
caught the dead rocket earlier in
the day after a space chase from
record heights.
Officials wanted to make sure
Young and Collins had ample pow-
er to get back down today from
the 247-mile-high orbit for a
splashdown in the Atlantic Ocean.
No Problems-At First
Collins, the fourth man ever to
leave an orbiting vehicle, had
planned to stay out 55 minutes,
and things went flawlessly at first.
He plugged a nitrogen fuel line
into his space gun to give it power
to flash him around while he was
connected to a lifeline feeding him
spacecraft oxygen.
The eager astronaut edged over
to the Agena a few feet away while
Young steered the spaceship, fir-
ing its tiny jets.
"Everything outside is about
like we predicted only it takes
more time for body positioning.
This is indeed a problem. Although
the nitrogen line got connected
without too much of a problem,
when I translated over to the Age-
na, I found that the lack of a
hand hold is a big impediment.
Only Hanging On
"I could hang on but I couldn't
get around to the other side where
I wanted to go. Finally I did get
the S-10 package and the nose
fairing both off."
The S-10 was a panel-like ex-
periment tacked to one side of the
Agena that hopefully has collect-
ed valuable information on micro-
meteorites in space by measuring
the number of hits.
"However there's a piece of the
shroud hanging or rather the nose
of the Agena which came loose,"
he continued.
"And I was afraid I would get
snarled up in that, and so was
John.
He told me to come on back."
As a result, Collins did not get
a chance to install a new micro-
meteorite plate for an astronaut
on one of the later Gemini flights
to retrieve. Instead, he said, he
just tossed it into the limitless
void.
Camera Lost
"Also, I lost my Eva Hasselblad,
I'm sorry to say," Collins added,

meaning the still camera he was said: "I have no idea where it

rea, the United States lost 1,109
aircraft to ground fire--550 Air
Force, 559 Navy and Marine. Of

propeller types. The annual loss
rate was 369.
The figures come from the Pen-
tagon's Office of Statistics.
Air statisticians measure losses
also against exposure to enemy
fire-combat flights or sorties. The
more exposure, the higher the ex-
pected losses.
Quite probably the annual sortie
rate in Viet Nam against ground
targets will be close to Korea's,
especially with the present policy
of limitation on targets. It has left
pilots mostly with what they call
"cheap targets"--trucks, military
depots, bridges, roads and rail-
roads.
In their anti-aircraft war, the
North Vietnamese are using weap-
ons ranging from .60 caliber to
85mm plus some guided missiles.
They apparently have ample
stocks.
They apparently are also well-
equipped with advanced radar and
with radar that controls the aim-
ing of guns.
Air strike tactics for jets have
not changed appreciably since the
Korean War. A jet can't come in

proach speed would prevent the

Other Topics
As the questioning rolled on,
other topics came up:
Politics-Johnson said he will be
out there campaigning this fall,
and will "take advantage of every
opportunity to go out to the coun-
try and explain our programs" and
"ask for support."
Tight Money - Johnson said
that, "We are seriously concerned
with the plight of the home build-
er. We are distressed at increased
costs from high interest rates."
The best thing that can be done,
he said, is for Congress to act on
legislation the Treasury recoin-
mended.
Communist China-UN - The
President gave no direct answer to
a question pegged to admitting
Communist China to the United
Nations alongside Nationalist Chi-
na. He voiced a hope that "at a
not too distant date mainland
4 China will be willing to perhaps
come nearer to abiding by the
principles laid down in the United
Nations Charter."

under way for a Western Hem-
isphere summit meeting but so far
M "we do not have a date or a
place,"
He said he would be glad to go
to a meeting and would do so,
after proper preparations.
All these were secondary sub-
jects to the war in Viet Nam, in
which Johnson said the Commu-
nists have been losing 10 men to
our one for 10 weeks now, and to

Katzenbach told the House
Committee on Un-American Activ-,
ities that "there are constitution-
al difficulties and problems" with
some aspects of the legislation
sponsored by Rep. Edwin E. Willis
(D-La), the committee's chairman.
Despite Katzenbach's criticism,
early approval is expected for the
bill which Willis introduced after
the committee's six-month inves-
tigation of Klan activities.

HAVANA-Prime Minister Fi-

built in Pinar del Rio, Las Villas
and Oriente provinces.
One purpose of the schools is to
free women from housework and
put them to work as "producers
for the revolution" in factories and
fields where needed, he added.
"When these institutions are es-
tablished, 100 per cent of the wom-

Castro told a school meeting at

Cuba.
