As Thant Peace Cites Scheme For Solution Of Problem UNITED NATIONS (P)-United Nations Acting Secretary-General U Thant said yesterday he has forwarded to United States offi- cials new Cuban and Soviet pro- posals for settling the Cuban crisis. He declined, however, to dis- close them, and Cuban, Soviet and United States delegation sources could not be reached for comment. Thant told newsmen he passed the proposals on Thursday-the' same day he received a letter from Cuban Prime Minister Fidel Castro warning that Cuban antiaircraft batteries would shoot down any United S t a t e s reconnaissance planes flying over Cuban. Sticks to His Peace Castro also stuck to his "peace with dignity" proposal which con- tains five demands for settlement of the crisis. These include United States withdrawal from the Guan- tanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba and a lifting of trade embargoes, among other things. A United Nations spokesman said Tuesday that Soviet First Deputy Foreign Minister Vasily V. Kuznetsov and Cuban Delegate Carlos M. Lechuga had discussed "specific joint proposals" with Thant that day. But the follow- ing day he said Thant had not yet relayed them to the United States because he was not authorized to do so. Subsequently both Cuban and United States sources. denied knowledge of any new proposals. But both Kuznetsov and United States Delegate Adlai E. Stevenson spoke of progress in their nego- tiations after a long meeting Thursday night. Seek Agreement The negotiations, and Thant's mediation, aim at carrying out an Oct. 28 agreement between President John F. Kennedy and Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrush- chev for removal of Soviet "offen- sive weapons" from Cuba under United Nations supervision, and a United States pledge against in- vasion of Cuba. The Soviet Union has withdrawn 42 surface-to-surface missiles, which were checked out by the United States Navy, but has not yet pulled out about 30 IL-28 jet bombers. At the same time, Cuba has rejected any United Nations supervision. Thant talked to newsmen before addressing delegates to a conven- tion of the American Association for the United Nations. He said tolerance of other peo- ple's political ideologies was "very necessary if we are to save human- ity from a thermonuclear holo- caust." 'DER SPIEGEL' UND STRAUSS: Adenauer Tries To Save Government Coalition BONN (F)-German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer failed yester- day to dissuade junior partners in his West German coalition govern- ment from their demand that Defense Minister Franz Josef Strauss be fired. Informants reported, however, both sides agreed the coalition should be saved. Erich Mende, leader of the Free Democrats who serve as par- liamentary partners with Adenauer's Christian Democrats, came out. JOHN F. KENNEDY - requests explanation U THANT ...hope for peace of meetings with Adenauer saying' nothing had changed the party's demand that Strauss be removed because of his admitted involve- ment in a heavily-criticized gov- ernment crackdown on the maga- zine "Der Spiegel." But Christian Democratic sources reported Mende and Adenauer agreed in their meeting on keep- ing up the coalition against the opposition Socialists. Ease Out Strauss One high government source said Strauss would be eased out of his cabinet post after elections in Ba- varia in a week. This would shape up as a com- promise. The Free Democrats had threat- ened to pull five of their members out of Adenauer's cabinet unless their demand on Strauss' removal is met. The withdrawal of the Free Democrats would leave Ade- nauer in a precarious position. His party lost its parliamentary major- ity in elections a year ago. Its subsequent partnership with the Free Democrats-a conservative party--won Adenauer reelection. Returns to Bonn Adenauer returned to Bonn Fri- day night from Washington ex- pressing confidence he could over- come his toughest political test in his 13 years as West German lead- er. The Free Democrats have schid- uled a meeting in Nuernberg to- morrow to decide formally on Strauss' removal. They have charg- ed that he embarrassed Parliament by first denying then admitting he had a role in closing "Der Spiegel" and arresting its publisher and five editors on suspicion of trea- son, allegedly for an article about West German defense capabilities. The magazine has repeatedly at- tacked Strauss on a number of charges, including favoring friends with defense contracts. Many West Germans and much of the press viewed the "Der Spiegel" affair as a revenge action instituted by Strauss. Strauss was jeered at a political rally in the Bavarian town of Fuerth during the day. The crowd, waving- copies of Der Spiegel, shouted for him to resign, The Christian Democrats have officially thrown their support be- hind Strauss against the Free Democrats' criticism. Try To Solve Church Rift VATICAN CITY (P)-The Steer- ing Committee of the Roman Cath- olic Ecumenical Council was re- ported last night to be seeking a way to pull the assembly out of a sharp theological dispute. An informant said the com- mittee-made up of the 10 cardi- nals who take turns presiding over the Council-had been summoned to a special meeting after a third straight council session involving strong arguments on a proposed thesis on the sources of divine rev- elation. During the closed session in St. Peter's Basilica, Alfredo Cardinal Ottaviani took the floor, appar- ently to defend the thesis, which was drafted by a commission he headed. Vatican spokesman said only that Cardinal Ottaviani spoke, without going into detail on his comments. Cardinal Ottaviani, secretary of the Congregation of the Holy Of- fice, is a conservative. The thesis on sources of divine revelation has encountered s t r o n g opposition from council elements considered teformist or progressive. The thesis states anew the Ro- man Catholic doctrine that scrip- ture and tradition are sources of the revealed word of God. Protest- antism hold that scripture is the only source. Reformation argu- ments flared on this point, and sources heredsaid many of the 2,- 200 council leaders were anxious not to re-open old wounds at the present time, when inter-church relations are better than they have been for centuries. Arnett To Compete In Speaker Race By The Associated Press LANSING-Rep. Homer Arnett (R-Kalamazoo) has become the third member of the House to de- clare himself in the running for the post of speaker, being vacated this year by Donald R. Pears (R- Buchanan)., Plan Urges Soviets To Explain Arms Stand Kennedy May Detail Cuba Position Tuesday WASHINGTON (A) - President John F. Kennedy is seeking a prompt, decisive reply from Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev on removal from Cuba of about 30 jet bombers capable of delivering nu- clear bombs against United States targets. Kennedy is reported to have made clear to Moscow through dip- lomatic channels that for the Unit- ed States time is running out on the bomber issue and the Soviet government should make its posi- tion known without delay. Officials said he has not fixed any time limit for new moves if the jets are not taken out of Cuba but it was considered significant in official quarters that the Pres- ident has set a news conference- his first since Sept. 13-for 6 p.m. Tuesday. Clear Up the Bombs Authorities said it seems obvi- ous that when he goes before the American people to make a report on the Cuban situation at that time he will want to have uncer- tainty over the bomber issue clear- ed up. If Khrushchev has by then re- fused to make good on his com- mitment of Oct. 28 to take out of Cuba the weapons Kennedy con- sidered offensive, the President may order new measures to deal with the situation. Among those under considera- tion is a blockade ban on shipment of petroleum products to Cuba. This would deny jet fuel for the planes. Two Problems The long deadlock over the Ilyu- shin-28 bombers is at the heart of the new period of tension now developing in the Cuban crisis. But it is only one of the two major elements. The other is Cuban Prime Min- ister Fidel Castro's threat made public Friday to shoot at United States planes which are flying re- connaissance missions over Cuba. United States officials evidently are counting on Khrushchev to re- strain Castro from what could be considered both in Washington and Moscow as rash and very dan- gerous action. The United States has given no- tice that the flights will be con- tinued regardless of what Castro does about them and if he uses force against United States recon- naissance air craft the United States will take immediate, force- ful counteraction. It is assumed here that at the present stage Moscow would pre- fer to avoid seeing the , situation heated up. By JACK BELL Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON-Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller (R-New York) appar- ently faces strong pressure from GOP conservatives and liberals in shaping the course he hopes will lead to his nomination for United States president in 1964. Rockefeller, who dislikes labels, is tabbed in the minds of most politicians as a liberal, or at least a moderate. His position on ma- jor domestic issues is not far from that of the man he would hope to defeat, President John F. Ken- n'edy. During the election campaign, for example, Rockefeller pledged to push a state program aimed at making "all the people well hous- ed, well clothed, well fed, well edu- cated and well protected from ad- ,versity.' Modified Welfare State To many Republicans this sounded as if the governor's plat- form contained a modified version of the welfare state, although on a pay-as-you-go basis. While the governor's campaign promise that there will be no in- crease in state taxes may present some difficulties, there is every evidence he will stick to his budg- et-balancing philosophy. Rockefeller's demonstrated abil- ity in the past balance income and expenditures has made him palat- able to some GOP conservatives without damaging his standing among the party's liberals. Multitudinous Considerations But the governor appears likely to have to consider a number of factors in charting his course to- ward 1964. In the first place, the primary asset in his arsenal of political weapons is his twice-demonstrated ability to carry New York state. Most Republicans are rather cer- tain they'll have to have New York's electoral votes if they are to defeat Kennedy's bid for a sec- ond term. But New York presents some special problems. A conservative Republican ticket headed by David R H. Jaquith as a candidate for gov- ernor polled 126,131 votes in the McCullough Cites Plan for Primary By The Associated Press LANSING-Bi-partisan legisla- tion designed to restore the tradi- tional September primary-some- thing Michigan hasn't had in a dozen years-is being planned by Rep. Lucille H. McCullough (D- Dearborn). Complaints from poli- ticians and voters about the length of the 1962 election campaign caused her to consider the bill, to be introduced in the 1963 session. Nov. 6 balloting. If anything, Ja- quith was more violent in his' de- nunciations of Rockefeller than was the Democratic nominee, Rob- ert M. Morgenthau. Must Placate GOP The conservatives are guaran- teed a place on the 1964 ballot, if they want to put up candidates. If Rockefeller fails to placate them, they conceivably could deny him the votes he might need to beat Kennedy in New York. On the other hand, if the gover- nor turns to the right to please conservatives he stands to lose a NELSON A. ROCKEFELLER . pressures from the party great deal of the kind of liberal support that gave him a second term and which put Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R-NY) back in the United State Senate for another six years by a far greater margin. Rockefeller's problem is com- pounded also by the disagreement between party liberals and con- servatives about how to win an election in which the traditional odds are with the incumbent Pres- ident. The liberals think the case for concentrating efforts on the big industrial states was strengthen- ed by Rockefeller's reelection in New York and Republican gov- ernor victories in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. Rockefeller fits the pattern of the kind of nominee they think could win in these states and pos- sibly in California. On the other hand, conservatives generally believe that if the Re- publicans win in 1964 it will be because they are able to combine a bloc of Southern with Midwest- ern and Western electoral votes. Hold No Illusions Even if Southern voters are as disillusioned with Kennedy, as some of the election returns seem- ed to indicate, it would be hard to make them enthusiastic about Rockefeller. Rockefeller's advocacy of and actions on civil right. are about as advanced, as those of any man on the national scene. The conservatives haven't been able to nominate a Republican presidential candidate in modern times. But some, like Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz) profess to see some good traits in Rockefeller. Goldwater said recently Rockefel- ler is "much closer to the con- servatives than the conservatives want to admit." Proves Validity Sen. John G. Tower (R-Tex) promptly proved the validity of that statement with the observa- tion that he does not consider Rockefeller a logical candidate for the 1964 GOP nomination. He said he favors Goldwater. The possibility of welding a ticket that would appeal to both factions of the party has occurred to some. A Rockefeller - Goldwater lineup has been discussed. But Sen. Clifford P. Case (R- NJ), who is trying to rally GOP liberals to sound a louder voice in party affairs, said he didn't think this was "a likely or a logi- cal proposition." Havana Denies FBI Charges Of Sabotage KEY WEST A')-Havana Radio said yesterday's New York arrests in an alleged Cuban sabotage plot were "a Yankee maneuver" to counteract the sensation of a sab- otage plot foiled in Cuba. The Cuban government radio broadcast, monitored in Key West, said "the slanderous accusation against three Cuban citizens" by the Federal Bureau of Investiga- tion stemmed from "the recent ar- rest of a United States central in- telligence agent in Cuba who tried to blow up a mining installation." Several days ago the Castro gov- ernment arrested a Cuban, accus- ed him of being chief agent of the CIA, and said he tried to cause an explosion that would have endan- gered the lives of 400 workers in the Matahambre Copper Mine in Pinar Del Rio Province. 11 it 11 -: ANN ARBOR CANTATA SINGERS ROSELLA DUERKSEN, Conductor in a concert of CANTATAS. by J.
