United States officials said tonight that Ambassador Philip D. Sprouse has been instructed to inform the Cambodian government the charges are false. But, at the same time no effort will be made to induce Prince Norodam Sihanouk to continue accepting American assistance un- willingly, they said. Sihanouk charged publicly at a special meeting Gof the national congress that free, " Khmer rebels are operating with T errorists foreign support including that of the United States. " Informed diplomatic sources ad- SCa' araeas vanced these theories for Sihan- ouk's renunciation of United States support: Aref.Keeps Iraqi Power After Coup BAGHDAD (P)-Sporadic firing continued in Baghdad ,yesterday but President Abdel Salam Aref's new military regime appeared firmly in control after taking power in a tank-led coup. Aref's immediate objective was to dissolve the national guard, built up by the Ba'ath party's hard-line leader, exiled Deputy Premier Aly Saleh El Saadi. The guard, which had become a rival to the army, put up last-ditch resistance to the coup. Authorities extended an ulti- matum to the guard to turn in their weapons and uniforms until 4 p.m. yesterday or be considered outlaws. Except for occasional bursts of gunfire the capital was quiet and a few stores were open. Tanks guarded key intersections and only military vehicles moved down on the streets. Aref is an admirer of President Gamal Abdel Nasser of the United Arab Republic, while the Ba'ath- ists oppose Nasser's brand of Pan- Arabism. But it remained to be seen just how much of a victory Aref's coup will be for Nasser's movement. Syrian Premier Gen. Amin Haf- ez and other top Syrian Ba'ath Party leaders trapped in Bagh- dad by the coup returned to Da- mascus last night aboard a special plane. Their only comment to newsmen was "everything is all right." There were unconfirmed reports that before leaving for Damascus Hafez held talks with Aref on the possibility of an amicable settle- ment of the Aref-Ba'ath split. Romney Trails in State Poll By The Associated Press Only 8.8 per cent of Michigan's Republican county chairmen think Gov. George Romney is the GOP's best bet to defeat President John F. Kennedy in 1964, a recent poll reveals. Conducted by the Associated Press, the poll asked the chairmen to name their choices for the party's "strongest candidate against t Kennedy." Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz) led the poll with 77.2 per £r cent of the votes, Richard M.'

Division GEORGE ROMNEY ... behind Goldwater, Nixon Nixon was second with 10.6 per cent, Romney third and New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller fourth with 3.4 per cent. Among those who voted for Romney as a strong contender for the GOP nomination was Emmet County Chairman N a t h a n i e 1 Stroup, who stated: "I feel that Goldwater and Rockefeller, while each has de- voted followings, both lack the broad-based appeal to all segments of the GOP and the independent voters-and border-line Democrats -necessary to win against Ken- nedy." In the Goldwater camp was Richard Durant, chairman of Wayne County's 14th District who has clashed with Romney over the issue of the ultra-conservative John Birch Society. "I believe the party will prob- ably nominate Goldwater in 1964 because of the tremendous surge of enthusiasm for him amongst party workers. I think it's gone too far to be successfully stopped, al- ways depending upon the showing he makes in the actual primaries next spring," Durant commented. CARACAS (R')-Army units in armored cars and national guards- men were called out in Caracas yesterday to halt an outbreak of pro-Communist terror that all but paralyzed the Venezuelan capital. Police and snipers fought it out in the workers' suburbs, base of operations for the terrorists. Un- official reports said seven persons were killed and 30 wounded. The interior ministry reported more than 100 terrorists arrested. The Venezuelan underground in- tensified its campaign to unseat President Romulo Betancourt's government or to disrupt presiden- tial elections scheduled for Dec. 1. Reports from the interior said other cities were under the same terrorist offensive. Schools for American children were closed. Unions scorned a Red underground call for a general strike to begin in the early morning hours. In- terior Minister Manuel Mantilla called the strike attempt a "fias- co," but shooting, bombings and telephoned threats 'had the par- alyzing effecthofa general walk- out. Backs A-Ban U N Committee -NITED NATIONS (-The General.Assembly's main political committee approved yesterday a resolution supporting the creation of a nuclear-free zone in Latin America. But it was apparent from debate that preceded the vote that many. roadblocks remained to be hurd- led before that goal could be achieved. The resolution was approved 89-0 with 14 abstentions-enough to assure a two-thirds majority required for ratification by the General Assembly. The United States supported the resolution. -He is convinced the American effort in South Viet Nam will fail, and is taking out an insurance policy for the future by saying to Communist China that its way is the "way of the future." --There is little or no chance that the United States and other Western countries will accept Si- hanouk's proposal that Viet Nam, Laos and Cambodia be neutralized. -He was shocked by the deaths of South Viet Nam President Ngo Dihn Diem and his brother Ngo Dinh Nhu in the Nov. 1 military coup and cannot believe that the United States was not responsible. Roman Catholic Diem and Bud- dhist Sihanouk disliked each other intensely. The removal of Diem took away a favorite target for Sihanouk. NEW UNION: SStudent Sees Good Chance' For Magreb By DICK WINGFIELD "The political union of Magreb will be established," Ahmed Akli, a student from Algeria said re- cently. He said in an interview that the differences between Algeria, Morroco and Tunisa will not pre- vent them from uniting under one government, Magreb. Alki predicted that several fac- tors will precipitate the union: -There is no language barrier. French is commonly spoken, as well as Algerian and Arabic in most parts of the three countries. -The Islamic faith is predom- inant, so religion is not an im- pediment for Magreb. -The three countries have a common cultural tradition. "Of course, there are open dis- putes. Seven months ago there was a conspiracy to kill Tunisian Pres- ident Habib Bourguiba, who ac- cused Algerian President Ahmed See AKLI, Page 8 Reds Strike Viet Capital By The Associated Press SAIGON-Communist terrorists have been sent into Saigon to blow up government and United States military installations and kill American personnel, Vietnam- ese security sources said yesterday. Eager to discredit the new mili- tary regime, they have thrown usual caution aside and are re- cruiting any persons who say they support the Communist Viet Cong cause, the informants added, Consequently, agents of the Vietnamese security forces have been able to infiltrate the Com- munist recruiting program to pry out secrets and clear the way for crushing the new terrorist cam- paign. Security sources said that three Viet Cong agents captured follow- ing recent explosions reported they were members of a group sent into Saigon from D Zone, a barren area north of Saigon. United States policy toward the new government and the proposed withdrawal of some American troops there will be discussed to- at a Honolulu conference involv- ing the secretaries of state and de- fense. United States Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge arrived yesterday ap- parently prepared to back the mil- itary regime fully. In an airport interview, he call- ed "absolutely fantastic" any idea of a negotiated truce between South Viet Nam and the Commun- ist North Viet Cong.
