WASHINGTON (P)-The Office
of Civil Defense called yesterday
on the nation's state and city offi-
cials to speed preparations for pro-
tecting Americans in case of nu-
clear attack.
At the same time, the federal
officials said they were stepping
up their civil defense program.
Spurred by the Cuban crisis, the
civil defense office called for near-
ly doubling the amount of shelter
space available by lowering the
standards now required for shield-
ing from radiation.
Steuart L. Pittman, assistant
secretary of defense for civil de-
fense, said thiat by using space in
additional buildings it will be pos-
sible to accommodate 110 to 120
million persons, instead of 60 mil-
lion.
At present, shelter areas are re-
quiredmtomcut outside radiation by
100 times. Under the lowered
standards, the radiation would
have to be cut by only 40 times.
Pittman met at the Pentagon
with nine governors from the Civil
Defense. Committee of the gover-
nors conference.
The governors, headed by Nel-
son A. Rockefeller of New York,
also spent a half hour with Pres-
ident John F. Kennedy at the
White House.

ADDIS ABABA-Thirty-three persons were killed and 50 wounded
in tribal clashes at the towns of Geldegeb and Burtele in the Somali

day.

NEW DELHI (P)-A 10,000-man
Chinese invasion force was report-
ed driving down a jeep trail from
Towang yesterday 'in a possible
effort to break through the East-
ern Himalayas into India's thick-
ly populated Plains of Assam.
Outnumbered and outgunned In-
dian troops were putting up stiff-
er resistance after a week of heavy
fighting, a Defense Ministry
spokesman said, but two more In-
dian positions were overwhelmed.
Prime Minister Jawaharlal Neh-
ru, whose government has pro-
claimed a state of national emer-
gency, told a delegation of 45 mem-
bers of his Congress Party, India
is making arrangements to match
Communist firepower with arms
from abroad.
Writes to Nations
He said he had written to all
nations, except South Africa and
Portugal with whom India has no
diplomatic relations, explaining
his refusal to enter cease-fire ne-
gotiations with the Red Chinese
unless they pull back to their po-
sitions of Sept. 8.
One such letter went to the So-
viet Union. Premier Nikita S.
Khrushchev is believed here to
have prompted the Red Chinese to
'propose cease-fire talks and a
12'/2-mile pullback by both sides
from present positions.
Nehru declined to name the na-
tions from which India expects
weapons aid. He said India was
making no distinction between
East and West. But it was assum-
ed here that the United States
and Britain would be the chief
suppliers.
Won't Drop Policy
Despite the national emergen-
cy, Nehru is reluctant to abandon
his position of nonalignment in
the cold war by accepting free
arms aid.
A letter from Nehru to President
John F. Kennedy on Friday made
known India's need for arms, but
did not directly ask for aid. State
Department officials already have

See Support
For Change
In Church
VATICAN CITY (M)-Support
seemed to be mounting in the
Roman Catholic Ecumenical Coun-
cil yesterday for steps to allow
greater flexibility in church meth-
ods around the earth.
The new approach would mark
a historic transition in Ecclesias-
tical policy.
No vote on any aspect of the
change has yet been taken at
this worldwide assembly of the
Episcopate and preliminaries have
dragged slowly. After a week of
profuse floor discussions, the
Presidium admonished council
fathers to talk less in order to do
more.
Despite the snail's pace there
are many indications that adjust-
ments are in the making.
The Council still faces more
work on its "scheme" for revamp-
ing rules of ritual.
Communiques, as well as other
information gleaned about the
closed sessions, suggested power-
ful backing -for at least some
relaxation in the presently fixed
practices of the Church.

PARIS (M)-President Charles
de Gaulle faces his stiffest test yet
in a national referendum today
when the French people will say,
in effect, whether they want him
to serve out his term.
About 25 million French voters
will give their verdict on his ad-
ministration with ballots on de
Gaulle's proposed constitutional
amendment for direct election of
his successors.
De Gaulle himself has altered
the issue by proclaiming he will
resign if the proposal is beaten,
or if it wins only what he calls a
"vague and doubtful" majority.
The amendment, which aroused
a political storm throughout
France until it was overshadowed
by the Cuban crisis, would have
future presidents elected by uni-
versal suffrage instead of by an
electoral college of some 80,000
"notables" dominated by the tra-
ditional political parties.
In his closing referendum cam-
paign speech to the nation by ra-
dio and television de Gaulle cited
the Cuban crisis as proof that
France needs a strong executive
to cope with the troubled world
situation.
The referendum is the first of
three ballots which can determine

v

DE GAULLE FACES TEST:
French To Vote on Future

the nation's political future as well
as de Gaulle's.
Next month the voters ballot in
two rounds of general elections to
replace the National Assembly
which de Gaulle dissolved follow-
ing the downfall of the Georges
Pompidou cabinet. To win an As-
sembly seat, an absolute majority
i4 required in the first round, but a
plurality suffices in the runoff
vote one week later.
Like the referendum the nation-
al elections also involve de Gaulle
and the issue of presidential pow-
ers. The Pompidou cabinet was
overthrown on a vote of censure
against de Gaulle's constitutional
reform plan, and this inevitably
will be a factor in the campaign.

The middle-road coalition which
unseated Pompidou has just is-
sued a broad joint program which
it says is ready to implement if
de Gaulle does carry through his
avowed intention to resign if the
amendment is beaten or scrapes
through. This was an effort to as-
sure the country that, contrary to
what the Gaullists are saying, the
country would not be plunged into
chaos if the "no" votes muster a
majority today.
The coalition includes the So-
cialist Party, the Popular Repub-
lican Movement, a largely Catholic
and slightly left of center party,
the middle-roading Radical-So-
cialists and the conservative In-
dependent Party.

Calls Romney
'Uninformed'
LANSING UP)-George Romney's
mental health proposals "dem-
onstrate that he is shockingly un-
informed" about the operation of
Michigan's mental health program,
Dr. James'Graves, clinical direc-
tor of the Detroit receiving hos-
pital and a member of the State
Mental Health Commission, said
yesterday.
Graves said. Romney had sug-
gested that the State Department
of Mental Health provide guidance
and assistane for community men-
tal health clinics, that it coor-
dinate programs for training of
all mental health professions, that
it establish professional standards
for the personnel at state hospi-
tals and local clinics and that
there be a free exchange of ideas
on new treatment, techniques, re-
search projects and training pro-
grams.
All these things are now being
done, Graves said.
