$7.8 Billion
'63 Deficit
WASHINGTON (P)-The Ken-
nedy Administration said yester-
day the federal budget is headed
for a $7.8 billion deficit-the sec-
ond largest in peacetime.
The figure is somewhat higher
than officials had indicated ear-
lier,. And it was a far cry from
the January forecast of a $500
million surplus.
A Budget Bureau announcement
placed most of the responsibility
for the deficit oei Congress, a slug-
gish economy, and the administra-
tion's own changes in tax policy.
No Damage
Emphasized vas an official view
that the big deficit would not dam-
age the economy.
"With the existing level of un-
employment and unused plant ca-
pacty," the Budget Bureau said,
"the deficit is neither inflation-
ary nor dangerous to our balance
of payments position."
Cuba had little impact on the
revised estimates for the 1963 fis-
cal year that began July 1. The
bureau said that if the situation
does not worsen, the Cuban crisis
will cost about $1Co million. It
termed this "the rnighest kind of
allowance."
A Bit Short
Revenues for fiscal 1963 were put
at $85.9 billion-$7.1 billion lower
than the level foreseen when Pres-
ident John F. Kennedy first sent
the budget to Congress last Jan-
uary. The bureau said the sharp
drop was due to "the slower-than-
expected rate of economic recovery
and changes in the tax laws and
regulations."
Record peacetime spending of
$93.7 billion was predicted. This is
$1.2 billion higher than the Janu-
ary forecast-an increase attribut-
ed to congressional changes in ad-
ministration bills to boost postal
rates and overhaul the farm pro-
gram.
Surprisingly, the revised figures
showed no change in military out-
lays, still figured at $48.3 billion.
Hamilton Quits
As Aide Chief
WASHINGTON (A) - President
John F. Kennedy's acceptance of
Fowler Hamilton's resignation aft-
er little more than a year as for-
eign aid chief was announced by
the White House yesterday.]
Assistant Press Secretary An-
drew Hatcher said Hamilton will
stay in the job until Kennedy
picks a successor. Hamilton, in an
interview, said he submitted his
resignation last week because of
"compelling personal reasons."

'TRAITOR':
Chinese Commzunists
Criticize Khrushchev
HONG KONG (R)--Chinese Communist officials have told West-
erners in Hong Kong that Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev is an
opportunist, a weakling and a traitor to the Communist cause.
These are surprisingly frank charges for Chinese Communist
officials to make. They indicate Soviet-Chinese relations have taken a
sharp turn for the worse.
There appears little doubt they will get even more rancorous
when the charges get back to the Kremlin. The Chinese Communists

T o Institute
Home Guard
Near Border
Program To Include
Compulsory Training
NEW DELHI W)- - India an-
nounced plans yesterday for ex-
pansion of its armed forces in the
undeclared war against Commu-
nist China, with military training
for every able-bodied man.
Home guard units will be set up
in all districts bordering Tibet, the
base of the Communist Chinese
Himalayan offensive, and defenses
will be organized on a nationwide
basis, Home Minister Lal Bahadur
Shastri told Parliament.
Shastri said Prime Minister Jaw-
aharal Nehru's government decid-
ed to take these steps immediately
and will appoint a director-gen-
eral of civil defense to coordinate
the project.
Flooded Border
Communist China, he said, "has
flooded the entire border of India
with soldiers."
The Chinese, like the Indians,
have reinforced their lines in the
lull that followed a late October
push which won the Chinese 2,000
square miles of territory. Peiping
at that time was estimated/ to
have up to 50,000 troops in action.
The home minister said the ene-
my was dangerous and warned In-
dia's people against any "com-
placency or relaxation."
Snowing Slowing
With snow limiting military ac-
tivity on parts of the mountain
front, a government spokesman
reported Indian patrols were un-
eventful.
However, a Peiping broadcast
said there was another clash near
Walong, a strategic center 15 miles
west of the Burma border.
Indian troops staged an attack
on "Chinese frontier guards" at 8
a.m. Tuesday, the broadcast said,
but withdrew after the Chinese
fired back. The raid vas reported
preceded by an Indian artillery
bombardment of more than 200
shells.
Meanwhile, the nation prepared
to celebrate Nehru's 73rd birthday
today. Donations of gold poured
in.

Meany Cites
Union Split
With Group
WASHINGTON (P)--The AFL-
CIO yesterday broke off relations
with the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored Peo-
ple in protest against activities of
the NAACP's labor secretary, Her-
bert Hill.
George Meany, AFL-CIO presi-
dent, announced he had been au-
thorized by the federation's exec-
utive council to write the NAACP
saying the AFL-CIO wants to con-
tinue to cooperate to curb racial
discrimination but feels it cannot
so long as Hill operates as he has
been doing.
"We want to work with them
but we can't subscribe tothe ac-
tions of the labor secretary,"
Meany told reporters. He said the
AFL-CIO has suspended financial
support from the NAACP.
Meany said Hill has been mak-
ing "baseless charges" of racial
discrimination against some un-
ions and has been trying to get
unions stripped of bargaining
rights through National Labor Re-
lations Board procedures on the
ground the unions are practicing
discrimination.
Meany again acknowledged cer-
tain unions do practice discrim-
ination and said it must stop. But
he said Hill's plan to remove bar-
gaining rights from unions would
do nothing to end discrimination
practiced in plants.

A convention in London and two
approaching elections may decide
the fate of the Federation of Rho-
desia and Nyasaland.
The Nyasaland Constitutional
Convention opened Tuesday allow-
ing leader of the majority party,
and co-minister Dr. Hastings Ban-
da to push for internal self-gov-
ernment now and the right to se-
cede when the Federation gains
independence.
Britain set up the Federation
in an attempt to join Northern
and Southern Rhodesia and Nyas-
aland into a self-sufficient eco-
nomic unit. Nyasaland is the least
developed of the three and would
benefit the most economically from
union.I
White Rule
However, the almost totally Af-
rican population feels that the
Federation is an attempt to main-
tain white rule. Dr. Banda's Mala-'
wi Congress Party ran and won
on a platform of secession after
independence.
Two weeks ago Northern Rho-
desia held an election for the for-
ty-five seat Legislative Council.
African parties that supported the
secession won an overwhelming
majority, but because of the con-
stitution formed by the British.
did not win the election.
The Legislative Council is split
into Upper, Middle, and Lower role
seats with fifteen seats in each
section. A person's wealth and ed-
ucation determines in which role
he is entitled to vote. Europeans
control the upper role, Africans
control the lower role, and the
middle role is elected by both. Each
white candidate must receive 10
per cent of the black vote and
vice versa.
Empty Seats
In this last election insufficient
crossing of racial lines prevented
the filling of 10 seats, and a ma-

jority could not be claimed by
either side. British-appointed Gov-
ernor Sir Evelyn Hone decided not
to form a government until these
seats were filled by an election
Dec. 10.
The final leader will probably
be African nationalist Kenneth
Kuanda of the United Nation-
alist Party.
Southern Rhodesia, which pres-
ently has an all white legislature,
is going to have an election Dec.
14 under a new constitution. This
constitution also has the legisla-
ture split into levels with differ-
ent constituencies based on land
holdings and education. African
candidates are expected to win 17
of the 65 seats.
Less Bias
Although Prime Minister Sir Ed-
gar Whitehead is basing his cam-
paign on less discrimination and
more rights for the African, the
black population faces a tough
fight for power. Two-thirds of the
Federation's white population live
in Southern Rhodesia. They will

not grant concessions unless nec-
essary.
Next spring representatives from
Britain, the Federation, Northern
and Southern Rhodesia, and Nya-
saland will meet to decide the fu-
ture of the Federation. With Afri-
can majorities in Nyasaland and
probably Northern Rhodesia the
Federation as a political unit may
be ended. If it is, Britain will push
for and get some form of economic
union.

Fanfani's Christian Democrats
and the Communists in the week-
end municipal elections.
It was the second ballot sound-
ing for trends since Fanfani creat-
ed his "opening-to-the-left" gov-

time the Liberals showed bigger
gains, than any other party.
The Liberals' rapid recent gains
indicated that out in the Italian
hinterland a cool wind is rising
against the premier's alliance with
the Socialists, close allies of Ital-

Investigaion
Meets Delay
OXFORD OP)-District Attorney
Jesse Yancy Jr. announced yester-
day the Lafayette County Grand
Jury could not report its findings
on University of Mississippi race
violence before Friday and blamed
the federal government for de-
lays.
"After much haggling and argu-
ments, the federal government re-
layed word by telephone yesterday
morning that it would mail its evi-
dence and findings tomorrow,"
Yancy said.
"This means the grand jury
can't see what federal investiga-
tors have learned until some time
tomorrow," he said. "There will be
a definite delay in proceedings."
Earlier, Yancy had indicated the
23-man grand jury would report
yesterday on the deaths of Paul
Guihard and Ray Gunter, both
killed during the Sept. 30 riot on
the campus. Guihard was a 30-
year-old French newsman, and
Gunter a 23-year-old Oxford juke
box repairman.
