Students Riot
In New Debli
Against Reds
By The Associated Press
NEW DELHI-Thousands of In-
dian university students swept
through New Delhi yesterday,
shouting for expulsion of Com-
munist Chinese from the border,
and burning Chinese shop signs.
Prime Minister Jawaharlal Neh-
ru called for calm and said In-
dians were "exceeding the limits
of decency" as violence persisted
for the second day in this nation
schooled 'in tthe 'tenets of non-
violence.
Police estimated 10,000 univer-
,sity men and women marched
through the capital's streets from
noon to nightfall. The students
ripped down signs in Chinese
idegraph and burned effigies.
Police Guard Chinese
Armed police were placed on
guard outside all Chinese business
houses. A new emergency ordi-
nance permitting summary action
against foreigners for aiding ag-
gression against India classifies
Indian citizens of Chinese origin
as foreigners.
Nehru was aroused by the vio-
lence shown in Wednesday's dem-
onstrations, when crowds surged
into headquarters of India's Com-
munist Party, looted it and set
fire to documents and books.
"These are acts of a weak
people, not of a mature and strong
nation," Nehru said angrily in a
speech at a reception for the
visiting president of Cyprus.
Weaken Government
"By these acts you are not
strengthening the government's
hands in defeating Chinese ag-
gression but only weakening it."
Earlier yesterday, Mrs. Indira
Ghandhi, Nehru's daughter, led
the response of the Indianian fi-
nance minister's request for dona-
tions of gold and jewels to help
pay the cost of the war against
the Communists.

Predict Menon Ousting
T o Help Indian Position
By J. M. ROBERTS
Associated Press News Analyst
There is a great sympathy and a reasoned concern for India in
the United States, but there is also a strong tendency to grin over
the fate of V. K. Krishna Menon.
Menon's political image was acquired in the years after World
War I when so many of the world's misfits and havenots devotedf
their lives to jealousy and hatred of those who were better off, andt

FOR VIGIL:
Albany Court
Tries, ,Fines
Clergymen
By The Associated Press
ALBANY-One white and two
Negro Ministers yesterday were
convicted in Recorders Court of
having violated city ordinances
during an August Prayer vigil
aimed at bolstering intergation in
this Georgia city.
They were the first to be brought
to trial out of 85 out-of-state
clergymen and church members,
arrested on Aug. 22.1
At that time, the charges were
disorderly conduct, creating a pub-
lic disturbance, congregating on
the sidewalk. and refusal to obey
an officer when, he ordered them
to cease their demonstrations.
In a trial marked by tense ex-
changes between the court and a-
Negro defense attorney, Judge
Adie N. Duren ruled the Rev.
Allan Brazier Anderson, 27, of
Chicago guilty, and imposed a
sentence of a $200 fine of 30 days
in jail.
By stipulation, the same judg-
ment applied to the two Negro
ministers--John W. R. Collier, 47,
of Newark, N. J., and Arthur
Lynwood Hardge, 35, of New Brit-
ain, Conn.
Almost immediately after the
sentence was read, the ministers'
attorney entered an appeal, and
they were released on $300 cash
bond.
One of the three clergymen not-
ed that if the appeal fails, he
"would rather spend the time in
the jail, promoting the cause of
integration," than pay the $200
fine.

.>considered the Kremlin's pervert-
ed version of Marxism a great ex-
periment.
He has wielded an influence
over Indian Prime Minister Jawa-
harlal Nehru, based on control of
the- millions of extreme leftists in
the Indian Congress Party, which
has brought confusion to the phil-
osophical leader's policies.
Menon allowed his bias to create
enemies for India all over the
world, and his personal rudeness
to other diplomats contained none
of the sly calculation displayed by
Soviet Premiere Nikita S. Khrush-
chev.
Khrushchev can surround him-
self with a certain amount of
humor even when banging a shoe
in an august assembly.
He now is revealed as one of
the few important ministers in
history who was willing to let his
personal antipathies control his
approach to the security of his
country.
Nobody Understands
Nobody could truly understand
him except perhaps an expert psy-
chologist, and even some of those
closest to Nehru said they had
given up trying. Menon has made
more than one statement indicat-
ing he didn't even like himself.
But Nehru thought Menon could.
get things done, and may have
thought he could not do the things
he wanted to do for India unless
he couid keep Menon's followers
in line. And it can hardly be
doubted that Menon's acid un-
predictability contributed to creat-
ing a position of importance for
India in world councils which was
out of proportion with either her
power or judgment.
The Western world just cannot
understand how, being at war with
Communist China, India could
continue to support the idea that
China is a peaceloving nation
qualified for association in the
United Nations.
Big Questions
Was it the greatest piece of
high-minded devotion to principle
in the history of international di-
plomacy? Was it a pragmatism,
however impractical, which con-
ceived that Communist China
would be subject to more restraints
within than without? Or was it
an inability to break cleanly with
Menon's bias?
Nehru now admits his country
has been "out of touch with real-
ity." That has been due in large
part to Nehru's inability to assess
the motivations of Menon, just
as he is sometimes unable to assess
his own.

To Reinforce
Air, Artillery,

Citizens Back Nehru;
Give Gold Heirlooms
NEW DELHI WP)-An American
airlift yesterday was reported set
to start bringing United States
arms into India by the weekend to
support Prime Minister Jawaharlal
Nehru's fight against Chinese
Communist invaders.
Informants here said the first
United States Air Force Transport
will arrive tomorrow, carrying
mostly mountain artillery sorely
needed by Indian forces falling
back in the Himalayas under su-
perior Communist firepower. Hea-
vier weapons are expected to be
rushed in-the first coming from
the United States base in Turkey.
A lull in the shooting along the
disputed 1,500-mile frontier was
reported but bigger battles ap-
peared shaping up.
Open Fire
The Chinese opened mortar fire
at Indian patrols around the vil-
lage of Jang, five miles east of
the strategic monastery town of
Towang, overrun by the Commun-
ists last week.
The Indians, building up a de-
fense line on the nearby 13,940-
foot-high Se Pass leading to the
Assam Plains, held their fire.
V. K. Krishna Menon, still
haughty despite his ouster of In-
dian Defense Minister, toured the
front and met Lt. Gen. Brij Mo-
han Kaul, commander of the In-
dian corps in the northeast.
Defends Fallback
Menon defended the fallbacks of
Indian troops after the Chinese
launched their attack Oct. 20,
explaining these were strategic to
afford better fighting positions.
Menon, often a critic of United
States foreign policy, told a crowd
at Tezpur that India would ac-
cept help "from where ever it
comes." He described his demotion
to defense production minister as
"merely a move to bring mre
strength into the administration"
and declared:
Indians generally heralded Neh-
ru's move in personally taking over
direction of the undeclared war
against the Chinese and the switch
in the government's policy of try-
ing to placate Peking. 1
Reds Vote Support
Of Government
NEW DELHI (M)-The council
of the Indian Communist Party
voted last night to side with the
government of Prime Minister
Jawaharlal Nehru and denounced
Communist China for aggression
in the border war. The party went
so far as to say it had no objection
to importing foreign arms, soon to
be pouring in frm the United
States.

Says Yemen

Aggression

DAMASCUS (A')-Foreign Min-
ister Abdul Rahman Al-Baydany
charged yesterday Saudi Arabian
and Jordanian regular army troops
attempted two invasions of Ye-
men but said they were "torn to
pieces" by air and ground de-
fenders, Cairo radio reported.
Baydany, who also is deputy
premier of Yemen's revolutionary
regime, was quoted in the broad-
cast as saying the attacks were
made from across the Saudi bor-
der in the Alhars region, about
180 miles north of Yemen's cap-
ital at San'a, and near the south-
western border of British protected
West Aden, about 140 miles from
the capital. Hekdid not specify
when the attacks took place tut
indicated they came in the past
two days.
Cairo radio, controlled by tli
government of the UnitedArab
Republic, said Baydany talked
with its correspondent in Yemen,
where forces loyal to the ousted
monarchy have been seeking to
regain conrtlo.
The radio also quoted San'a of-
ficial sources as saying 500 Saudi
troops were killed or wounded in
the northern fighting.
A royalist communique, broad-
cast meanwhile by Amman radio
in Jordan, claimed that tribal
warriors backing ousted King Al
Badr fought "hand to hand bat-
tles" to repel revolutionary army
troops in the Aljouf region, about
80 miles northeast of San'a. The
communique charged that United
Arab Republic forces were engaged
in the fighting.

SWAINSON REVIEWS IDE A:
Give Contracts to Texas Firm

EN ROUTE WITH SWAINSON
(")-Gov. John B. Swainson an-
nounced yesterday that United
States defense contracts worth
$102.5 million have been awarded
to a Texas firm for work to be
done at the former Chrysler mis-
sile plant in Sterling Township of
Macomb County.
Terming the contracts "perhaps
the most important industrial de-
velopment for Michigan in years,"
Swainson said Chance-Vought di-
vision of Ling - Temco - Vought
Corp. of Dallas won a $100 million
contract to develop and produce
the army's new "Missile B," and
a $2.5 million contract to develop
a prototype of a new cross-
country vehicle.
Chance-Vought and Chrysler
Corp. were the last two of six
original bidders for the contracts
and Swainson said he won as-
surances of the Texas firm that,
if they won, the work would be
done in Michigan.

The governor said the contracts
will mean employment for 1,000
persons in 1963 with an increase
up to 5,000 by 1968.
He said state officials will exert
"all possible effort" to see that
former Chrysler missile workers,
many of whom were laid off in
1960, will get preferential consider-
ation for the new jobs.
Swainson said he had obtained
the word of G. K. Johnson, presi-
dent of the Texas firm, that it
would do the work in Michigan
ever before the defense department
decision on the contract.
'A Tribute'
Swainson termed this "a tribute
to the management and labor
skills which we have available in
Michigan."
He added that the new defense
work puts Michigan in a good
position in the research and de-
velopment field.
The Sterling Township plant
was built by the government dur-
ing the Korean War for produc-

tion of Navy jet engines, and wa4
lated used by Chrysler for produc-
tion of the Jupiter and Redstone
Missiles until production of those
weapons was discontinued in 1958.
The plant still is owned by the
Army.
Newspaper Guild
Strikes NY Paper
NEW YORK (A)-The first
American Newspaper Guild strike
in New York since 1955 yesterday
closed The Daily News, largest
newspaper in the nation.
A new wage offer failed to ease
a contract deadlock.
Talks centered around the News
in an effort'to fix a wage pattern
to cover all seven major Man-
hattan dailies. For the time being,
the other six were publishing nor-
mally and thero appeared to be
no immediate threat of a city-
wide newspaper blackout.

LANSING (P)-The State Pub-
lic Service Commission has asked
the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion to schedule four days of
hearings in Detroit and Kalamazoo
in the New York Central-Pen-
nsylvania Railroad merger case.
William R. Connole,' assistant
attorney general assigned to the
commission, asked for the hear-
ings to permit industries served
by the two railroads to express
their views on the proposed mer-
ger and probable effects on their
industrial traffic.
Connole told the commerce com-
mission that while the big auto-
mobile companies have' followed
the proceedings closely, an op-
portunity also should be provided
for the smaller industries in the
state to make their views known.
