Khrush Is Apparent Winner
At Communist Summit Meet
MOSCOW (AP) The world
Communist movement publicly
closed ranks todav to siiniwrt So
viet Premier Khrushchev's thesis
that communism can triumph
without nuclear war. Khrushchev
thus won a victory at last month's.
Communist summit meeting.
Communist China joined 80
other Communist parlies in issu
ing a manifesto that seemed to
make clear Khrushchev and his
line of peaceful coexistence re
tain control of world communism's
direction at least for the pres
ent. War Not Inavltibl
"War is not fatally inevitable.
The Communist parties regard
the fight for peace as their prime
task." said a declaration spread
across 3'i pages in Pravda.
This is that Khrushchev has in
sisted on since the 20th Soviet
Communist party congress in 1956
which has won later endorsements
from the Communist movement.
But this time he won a stamp
of approval only after an embat
tled communist summit meeting
that opened in the Kremlin Nov.
9 the day ,after the U.S. elections
and contuiued for 21 days. The
agreement that emerged, in pub
lic at least, took 20.000 words. But

Thornton To Seek
Crime Fight Funds
SALEM (AP) Ally. Gen
Robert Y. Thornton plans to ask
the legislature for funds for his
proposed, crime prevention pro
gram.
The program was omitted from
the budget for the next biennium
proposed oy Gov. fltark O. Hatfield.
"I think the job should be
done," Thornton told a news con
ference Monday. He said it would
save the state money in the long
run.
Hatfield rejected Thornton's
request lor Sa2,958 for the pro
gram on the grounds that It was
outside the function of the office
of attorney general.
thornlon said there are pro
grams for such things as preven
tion of forest fires and traffic
accidents.
Thornton said If two nersnns
are saved from crime by the pro
gram, u wm neany pay lor it
self.
Personnel in the program would
co-ordinate activities of experts in
attempting to detect juvenile
delinquency In early stages. Also
planned are diagnosis and treat
ment of conditions fostering
juvenile delinquency and estab
lishment of crime prevention
commissions in high schools
throughout the state. . ,
war with the capitalist world is in
evitable. This was the major dif
ference with the Kremlin in the
larger question of how the Com
munists should advance their
cause by a belligerent posture
toward the West and encourage
ment of violent revolution, or by
negotiation with the capitalists
while communism takes over
gradually.
(Newspapers in London saw the
manifesto as a Communist go
ahead for Khrushchev to pursue
new negotiations with the West
after the failure of the May sum
mit meeting.)
Communism, said the manifesto
is bound to win in peace "by the
force of its example."
il warned that "war is a con
stant companion of capitalism"
but said "real forces have ap
peared that arc capable of foiling
its plans of aggression."
Seeks Unison
The manifesto called on Com
munist parties to unite with other
like-minded groups in popular
fronts, instead of continuing the
Communist fight alone.
"Today in a number of capital
ist countries the working class,
headed by its vanguard (The
Communist party), has the oppor
tunity lo unite a majority of tne
people, win stale power without
civil war and ensure the transfer
of the basic means of production
to tne nands pi tne people, tne
manifesto said'.
But it added that the possibil
ity of "non-peaceful transition to
socialism should be borne in
mind" and that the form of the
struggle depended on the "resist
ance put up by Uie reactionary
circles."
Renews Approval
The declaration also renewed
communism's approval of non
Communist national liberation
movements In colonial and under
developed countries.
This has been official Soviet pol
icyfor instance in India where
the Soviet Union attempts to
maintain strong friendship with
Prime Minister Nehru's govern
ment. But some Communists have
insisted that Communist aid
should be channeled to Communist
parties no matter how remote
their immediate chances of vic
tory. (Pelping has been ono of those
wanting to back Communists
wherever they are. Among those
.reported supporting the Chinese
Reds at the summit meeting were
Latin-American Communist, par
ties who are for the most part
small and need outside help.)
Isolation Of U.S.
Is Goal Of Chinese
LOS ANGELES (AP)-The com
mander of the U.S. Pacific fleet
says that the long-range goal of
the "Communist colonial empire"
of Red China is to isolate North
America.
This coal," Adm. John If. Sides
said Monday, "can be approached
by overrunning southeast Asia and
central Asia by whatever means
can be obtained short of general
war.
"If realized, this would oive the
Communists (lie rich raw materi
als of Indonesia, the agrarian
wealth of southeast Asia and the
industry of Japan."
Sides, here for an address be
fore the Los Angeles World Af
fairs Council, told a news confer
ence that "if this took place, it
would be the beginning of the end
for the United States and what re
mained of the free world."

Bone Find Clears
Four-Year Mystery
LONDON (AP)-The headless
body of a woman and the foot
and thigh bones of a man were
dredged up out of the Thames
Monday night and today, provid
ing the first break in a mystery
that has plagued Scotland Yard

The car was a black Wolscley
sedan. All that could be de
ciphered of the license number
were the figures 30.
The Loves1 car also was I black
Wolseley. Its license number was
DPE303.
Jack Love, ex-merchant navy
officer, tall, wavy-haired and
mustached, has been reported

wnvs proved fruitless.
