_ Trujillo Battles To Retain Dictatorship CIVIL RIGHTS BILL: SenateRejects Southern P By MORRIS W. ROSENBERG Associated Press Writer PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti-The old man of the Caribbean, 68- year - old Generalissimo Rafael Trujillo, is battling for survival. Forces that have overthrown four Latin American dictatorships in the last five years are now threatening Trujillo's 30 - year, iron-fisted rule df the Dominican Republic. The pattern is that which pre- ceded the downfall of Argentina's Y Juan D. Peron, Colombia's Gus- tavo Rojas Pinilla, Venezuela's Marcos Perez Jimenez and, in varying degrees, Cuba's Fulgencio Batista. It is taking shape in the grow- ing evidence of increasing unrest in the island republic, whose pop- ulation is estimated at 2,600,000. Among powerful elements with which Trujillo is now forced to contend are: 1) The Roman Catholic Church, which on Jan. 31 issued a pastoral letter protesting there was a lack of human rights. 2) A middle class group of young lawyers, doctors, engineers and other professionals who or- ganized a nationwide conspiracy to assassinate Trujillo last month. The plot was smashed in a wave of arrests. It is estimated that from 1,500 to 2,000 persons were jailed. Many were subsequently released, but 120 have been sen- tenced in trials so far this month to 30 years at hard labor -- the maximum legal sentence - and assessed fines totaling $600,000. 3) Worsening business condi- tions due to drought, low prices for sugar and coffee exports and a reduction in the public works pro- gram. The latter is attributed to heavy military expenditures. 4) External foes such as the governments of Venezuela and Cuba, which are seeking to mobil- ize continental pressure to end Trujillo's rule.

Semyon K. Tsarapkin told the three-nation talks that the Soviet Union will accept no treaty unless all tests, whatever their size and location, are outlawed simultane- ously. The he offered to allow a lim- ited number of mobile Western inspection teams to roam freely to the site of virtually any earth tremor in the Soviet Union to check for possible test violations. r This was a complete reversal of the previous Russian position. A United States spokesman said the new Soviet proposal was un- acceptable in its present form. Against Plan Tsarapkin admitted his conces- sion was intended to cut the ground from under President, Dwight D. Eisenhower's Feb. 11 proposal. The Eisenhower plan would restrict the treaty to those nuclear tests which can be policed with present scientific knowledge. Small tests underground and some tests in outer space could continue under the Eisenhower plan as long as there was no known way of po- licing them. Tsarapkin said the American plan was completely unacceptable to the Soviet Union. But he sug- gested a three-year program of joint East-West research to im- prove scientific knowledge of nat- ural and artificial earth tremors. Western officials said the catch in Tsarapkin's counterproposal1 was that many hundreds of in- spections would be needed every year to probe the site of a reason- able proportion of natural earth tremors in the Soviet Union. Not Necessary Tsarapkin himself told a news conference "It will be quite un- necessary to have a larger num- ber of inspections." Despite pleas from U nii t e d States Ambassador James J. Wadsworth and Britain's Sir Mi- chael Wright, Tsarapkin refused to be drawn out on the annual Quota of on the spot inspections his proposal would allow. The Western delegates said no realistic estimate of the proposal could be made without agreement on the quota. But Tsarapkin in- sisted that the West should first accept the principle of his plan and then discuss the quota figure. DIAL NO 2-6264 ENDING TONIGHT LEADERSTALKS: Burma Greets Khrushchev RANGOON (-) - Soviet Pre- mier Nikita S. Khrushchev was greeted in neutralist Burma yes- terday by a 21-gun salute and a tribute as a man in quest of peace. "We greatly appreciate your ef- forts and express sincere hope that you will succeedin your quest 'to bring peace in the world," said President U Win Maung in wel- coming ceremonies at Mingaladon Airport. Khrushchev arrived from India aboard his jetprop airliner for a 36-hour stay in Rangoon. The air- port was decked with Soviet and Burmese fhags. Leaders Chat About 1,000 sarong-clad Bur- manswatched as Khrushchev chatted with Prime Minister-Ne Win, Burmese officials and Win Maung. - Khrushchev said he will discuss with the Burmese "some of the important problems of our time which deeply agitate the peoples of the Soviet Union and Burma." "The most burning problem fac- ing all nations and governments at present is the attainment of universal and stable peace," he declared-. Troops Guard Only a few armed troops guard- ed the winding road as Khrush- chev drove in from the airport. Small groups gathered along the way and several hundred in one village waved Burmese and So- IViet flags. Khrushchev waved back. Shouting students c ar ry in g placards and banners reading "Long live Burma-Soviet friend- ship" and "With success for a summit conference" held up his car momentarily outside Rangoon University. The demonstration was organ- ized by the leftist National United front, which lost all but three of its 46 seats in the recent elections. Leaves Today Khrushchev leaves today for In- donesia. Then he will stop in Af- ghanistan en route home to Mos- cow. After lunch with Win Maung and a 90-minute conference with Ne Win, Khrushchev met ex- Premier U Nu at a reception at the presidentialamansion. Nu, Khrushchev's host on his T ela, Havana and New York are keeping up a barrage of propa- ganda and some underground ef- forts to unseat him. The brittle nature of Trujillo's power structure is in itself a hazard. Based upon the absolute rule of Trujillo, it demands com- pliance, loyalty and obedience. It is not flexible, if it starts to bend it will crack. See No Successor Not even the most loyal follower can see a successor to the Gen- eralissimo, who bears the official title "Benefactor of the Father- land and Father of the New Coun- try." A key element in the power pic- ture is the military. Thus far the well-trained army, the air force and naval units have not shown any signs that their allegiance to Trujillo is in doubt. Altogether they are estimated to total 25,000 men. Without military support it is unlikely that' any anti-Trujillo movement can succeed. Counts on Support Trujillo also counts on support frm both town and farm workers. Many among the poorer classes have an almost religious faith in the Generalissimo. He is portrayed as the Great White Father, generous and kind to loyal children, but capable of delivering swift, sharp punishment to those who stray. Actually he has done a great deal to improve living standards of the Dominicans. He has pro- moted good roads, hospitals, schools, housing and sanitary fa- cilities. But he has made many enemies along the way. Claims U.S. Must Insure Free Moon. WASHINGTON (A') - Andrew G. Haley, an authority on space law, said yesterday that if an alien power seems on its way to control the moon, the United States must use every means - including war-to prevent it. But Rep. James G. Fulton (R- Pa.) of the House Foreign Affairs and Space and Astronautics Com- mittees, disagreed. He said that such an attitude represented "the law of the jungle." Fulton said the United States! must push a firm program of sci- entific development in space, must make this program public, and must bring in other countries, of- fering them the use of its facilities. The authority spoke at a mis- siles-space conference of scientists, manufacturers and businessmen. WASHINGTON () -- Southern Senators were handed a 61-28 defeat yesterday in the first roll call vote of the 1960 civil rights battle in the Senate. The' vote-by well over a two- thirds margin - turned down a plea by Sen. Richard B. Russell (D-Ga.) that the Senate postpone consideration of civil rights legis- lation until next Tuesday. On this first test the Northern and Western Senators pressing for new civil rights laws won the votes of 34 Democrats and 27 Re- publicans, while 24 Democrats and 4 Republicans voted for delay. .Two Against The only Southern .Senators voting against Russell's request were two from Texas, Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson and Ralph Yarborough. In a prior development, Sen. Everett M. Dirksen (R-fll.) said he thinks the Senate will bring the civil rights issue to a head within three or four weeks. Dirksen, the Republican leader in the Senate, said he had given his estimate to President Dwight D. Eisenhower this morning. Hot Issue This was the second day of Sen- ate consideration of the hot poli- tical issue, and these were among the developments: 1) Sen. Kenneth B. Keating (R- N.Y.) failed in an effort to force the Eisenhower Administration's civil rights program out of the Senate Judiciary Committee. 2) Senators Jacob K. Javits (R- N.Y.) and Paul Douglas (D-ill.) announced they will offer a catch- all proposal, including provisions for presidentially appointed voter registrars and court-appointed voting referees, to help Southern Negroes vote. 3) The House Rules Committee heard testimony from Rep. Wil- liam M. Tuck (D-Va.) opposing any federal legislation on Negro voting, 'Leave Us Alone' Tuck, a former governor, said 100,000 Negroes are qualified to vote in Virginia, relations between white people and Negroes in Vir- ginia are good, and all that is needed is to "just let us alone." The House Rules Committee is considering the question of send- ing to the floor a bill already ap- proved by the House Judiciary Committee. It would make it a crime to oppose court orders for school integration by force or threats, and would require that local voting registrars preserve their records for federal inspec- tion. Dirksen told the Senate he thinks the House will pass a bill by the end of February, and it could then be substituted for the measure brought before the Sen- ate Monday. The GOP leader also said that if Southern opponents talk at length, he will favor running the daily Senate sessions later into the evening rather than taking action quickly on a vote to cut off debate. Southern Senators had some things to say yesterday. Sen. Russell called the pressure over civil rights legislation a scheme "to indict a whole people in this mad bidding for votes."

Khrushchev yesterday landed in Burma for a 36-hour stay with the Burmese leaders. Though neutralist, Burma greeted Khrushchev with a 21-gun salute and a tribute as a man of peace. Today Khrushchev will fly to Indonesia. 1956 visit, embraced the Soviet leader. Nu likely will become prime minister in April. His par- ty won in general elections 10 days ago. Subdued Khrushchev's demeanor was subduedthroughout the day and he displayed little of his usual bounce. He had shown weariness in India. But when Nu asked him how he felt, Khrushchev replied: "Fine, fine." Before leaving Calcutta for Rangoon, Khrushchev said he was optimistic that India can settle with Red China their dispute over about 50,000 square miles of ter- ritory on the Himalayan border. The delicate topic of border dis- putes probably will not arise dur- ing Khrushchev's stay in Ran- goon. Peiping Radio said Red China's state council has ap- proved a nonaggression pact and partial border settlement signed with Burma Jan. 28. 314 S.
