Adenauer
Denounce German
Air Flight Charges
LONDON (P) - Moscow radio
last night accused German Chan-
cellor Konrad Adenauer of a de-
liberate lie in asserting that Soviet
spy planes have been flying high
altitude reconnaissance over West
Germany.
"Oddly enough, neither the
American airmen nor the Ameri-
can radar instruments in West
Germany have been able to detect
what the" Chancellor-with his
not-so-young eyes-claims to have
noticed," said a broadcast beamed
at Germany.
In a speech at Dusseldorf Mon-
day, Adenauer asserted that Soviet
planes had for years been flying
over and photographing great
tracts of the United States and
West Germany.j
Moscow pointedly made no effort
to repudiate the charge that
American air space had been vio-
lated, but declared:
"In our opinion the Federal
Chancellor has a very low opinion
of his American allies and believes
neither their airmen nor their
radar instruments, or he told a
deliberate untruth in Dusseldorf.
In Frankfurt the newspaper
Frankfurter Rundschau mean-
while said it learned from reliable
sources that planes used for re-
connaissance flight over Eastern
Europe Soviet satellites started
and landed at West German air-
fields.

Eisenhower
M~ight Cancel
Russian Trip
Comments 'Startle'
American Officials
WASHINGTON 0P) -- Barbed
comments by Soviet Premier Ni-
kita S. Khrushchev yesterday sud-
denly pulled the welcome mat from
under President Dwight D. Eisen-
hower's goodwill visit to Russia.
Administration officials were
plainly startled by Khrushchev's
remark that Eisenhower might be
an embarrassing guest because he
approved spy-flights over Russia.
"The Russian people would say
I was mad to welcome a man who
sends spy planes over here like
that," the Soviet Premier told re-
porters in Moscow.
Might Delay
This newest maneuver by Khru-
shchev ' raised the prospect he
might pull back his invitation to
Eisenhower or that Eisenhower
might cancel or delay the 10-day
visit set to start June 10.
Khrushchev's free-wheeling per-
sonal comment at a new confer-
ence also appeared to raise East-
West tensions another notch in
advance of the Summit Confer-
ence starting in Paris in five days.
The White House and state de-
partment greeted Khrushchev's
words with "no comment."
White House Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty reinforced the
official silence with these words:
"I haven't any comment-P-E-R-
I-O-D. That's about all. I don't
expect there will be any."
Personal View
An Eisenhower associate, ex-
pressing what he called a personal
view, doubted that Eisenhower
would seek to cancel his trip be-
cause oftKhrushchev's words. The
President was described as eager
to make the visit because this of-
ficial said he sincerely believes
it might lead to an easing of
tensions.
Eisenhower views the sharp
words exchanged between the
Soviet Union and the United
States since the spy incident as
cold war Jockeying for advantage
prior to important negotiations,
this informant said.

WASHINGTON ()-Democratic
leaders yesterday applauded Sen.
John F. Kennedy's West Virginia
primary triumph as a great one
for him and a happy omen for
their party's prospects in the fall
elections.
Kennedy, fresh from knocking
Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-
Minn) clear out of the presiden-
tial contest, said his win Tuesday
assures him of landing the top
place on the Democratic ticket.

Some of Kennedy's exuberant;
supporters predicted, meanwhile,
that the Massachusetts Senator
will take the nomination on the
first ballot at the party's national
convention in Los Angeles two
months from now.
But as yet no Kennedy band-,
wagon was rolling. And Kennedy
himself indicated he felt there,
was considerable political work,
still to be done. He announced
plans for intensive stumping for
Maryland's primary next Tuesday
and indicated he will campaign
ahead of Oregon's primary May
20.
At a news conference, Kennedy
said he considers his chief com-
petitors to be Senate Democratic
Leader Lyndon B. Johnson of1
"exas and Sen. Stuart Symington
(D-Mo). The names of both are
on the Oregon ballot.
No Move!
Two key party chieftains-Gov.
David Lawrence of Pennsylvania+
and Gov. Edmund G. (Pat) Brown1
of California-congratulated Ken-1
nedy, but made no move to lead
their potent 81-vote delegations
nto his camp.
However, New York State's top
Democrats-National Committee-
man Carmine G. Desapio and
State Chairman Michael H. Prend-
ergast-appeared to be swaying a
bit toward Kennedy now. And they
will have much to say about the
direction New York's 114-vote del-
egation takes.
In the main, Republicans re-
frained from talking for publica-
tion about the Kennedy victory.
instead, they sought to direct at-
tention to what they said was an
impressive write-in vote for Vice-
President Richard M. Nixon in
Nebraska's presidential primary
where Kennedy's name was the
only on the ballot.
Turkish Group
Loses Rights
NEW YORK P)-Eight college
students from Turkey who took
part in a demonstration here in
sympathy with the Turkish stu-
dent uprising have had their stu-
dent exchange privileges rescind-
ed, it was reported Tuesday.
A spokesman for the Turkish
educational attache confirmed
that letters have been sent to the
students but would say only that
the reason is a secret.
However, the students them-
selves said the order grew out of
the May 2 demonstration outside
the United Nations, supporting
students who demonstrated in
Turkey against the regime of Pre-
mier Adnan Menderes.
One student said those depend-
ent on official financial aid might
find it difficult to remain here.
