Khrush Asks
NATO Forces
For Berlin
MOSCOW (UPI)-Soviet Premi
er Nikita Khrushchev called today
for replacement of Western Allied
garrisons in West Berlin with a
six-nation force of NATO and
Warsaw Pact troops. He said
nothing about removing Soviet
troops from East Berlin.
In a long speech before the Communist-sponsored
so-called "World
Congress for General Disarma
ment and Peace," Khrushchev
proposed establishment of a force
under United Nations command of
Norwegian, Danish, Belgian,
Dutch, Polish and Czechoslovaki
an troops. The first four are mem
bers of NATO, the latter two
members of the Soviet-run War
saw Pact.
The Berlin proposal was some
thing of a surprise, although his
address in the Kremlin Palace of
Congresses had been expected to
touch major issues of the East
West cold war.
Cites War Danger
Khrushchev also told the 2,000
delegates that the danger of a sud
den incident setting off World War
III was genuine. He said "all
mankind may be drawn into it
if determined measures are not
taken."
His disarmament proposals rep
resented nothing new. But his call
on Berlin was seen immediately
by informed observers as an ap
parent shift in the Soviet position.
Previously, the Communists
have called for replacement of the
Big Three Western garrisons by
united Nations or neutral troops,
"The success of the efforts of
unifying all the peoples and all
who , want to live and build
against the threat of a new world
war, depends largely on the
peace fighters," Khrushchev told
the gathering in the Kremlin .Pal
ace of Congresses. -
Must "Face Facts"
"We must all face the facts
squarely. The threat of a new
world war really exists. Mankind
may be drawn into it if de
termined measures are not
taken.
Khrushchev spoke after the
2,000 delegates had heard a morn
ing of almost continuous praise
for Soviet policy and condemna
tion of American deeds particu
larly Monday's American high
altitude nuclear test over the Pa
cific.
He told the delegates that the
arms race is the "moral issue of
our time," and said they were
holding the "most representative
conference for peace." He at
tacked what he called the "sinis
ter forces of aggression and evil"
leading the arms race.
Thunderous Ovation
Khrushchev was called to the
podium by Canadian John Bernal,
president of the World Peace
Congress, and was greeted with
thunderous applause.
He told the Congress that the
"amount of nuclear weapons now
is at the critical point."
"We have an expression that
'the guns will start speaking of
their own accord'," he said. "In
this nuclear age, let me say that
rockets with thermonuclear war
heads will start flying of their
own accord."
Khrushchev accused the NATO
countries of spending millions of
dollars every 10 minutes and
claimed that the United States
ranked first in its scale of war
preparations. Ho mentioned a fig
ure of $900 billion for U.S. mili
tary expenditures, but gave no de
tails. He said the NATO countries
were following the "same disas
trous road," and claimed the
world in general was spending
$120 billion on armaments.

WASHINGTON (UPI) - The

lected Soviet Premier Nikiln
Khrushchev's proposal to replace
United States, British and French
garrison in West JJerlin with
contingents from small NATO and
Warsaw Pact countries.
At the same time, the State
Department charged the Russian
leader with "hypocrisy" for criti

National All-Stars Claim
3-1 Win Over Americans
WASHINGTON (UPD The Na
tional League, with Maury Wills'
flying feet sparking the attack
and four pitchers allowing only
three hits, ' beat the American
League, 3 to 1, today in the major
league All-Mar game at the new
District of Columbia stadium.
After five innings of scoreless
ball, the National League broke
the ice by scoring two on three
hits. Stan Musial started the rally
by singling to right. Maury Wills
went in to run for him and proved
his mettle by stealing second. Dick
Groat singled through the box to
score Wills.
Roberto Clemente kept things go
ing by singling to left and pushing
Groat to second. Willie Mays flied
deep to Roger Maris to hurry
Groat to third and Clemente to
second. The second run came
across when Ccpcda grounded out
to allow Groat to score.
The Americans cut the lead in
half in the bottom of the sixth.
Ritchie Rollins singled behind first
base on Bob Purkey s first pitch.
Bill Moran singled to push Rollins
to third and Maris hammered a
long fly to Mays who made a leap
ing catch against the deepest fence
in right center. The catch was
great but it didn't stop Rollins
The National League added a
single insurance marker in t h e
eighth inning when Wills gave the
American League a taste of his
blinding speed, racing home from
third base on a short foul ball tak
en by right fielder Leon Wagner.
The Dodger speedster started the
eighth inning rally with a single,
then raced around to third on Jim
Davenport's base rap. Felipe
Alou's pop foul allowed the fleet
footed Wills to score.
Don Drysdale, Juan Marichal,
Bob Purkey and Bob Shaw com
bined pitching talents to limit the
American League to a mere four
hits in the nine inning affair.

New Premier
BRASILIA (UPD-Congress put
an apparent end to Brazil's two-week-old
political crisis today by
approving leftist-leaning ' Francis
co Brochado Da Rocha as new
premier.
The action by the Chamber of
Deputies was seen as a victory
for President Joao Goulart in his
power struggle with congressional
opposition. Before the vote, Bro
chado outlined a program which
followed closely the views of the
President.
Brochado defended Brazil's so
called neutralist foreign policy and
urged the chamber to call a pleb
icite on returning the country to
a presidential form of govern
ment. Brazil has had a parlia
mentary system for the past nine
months.
The chamber vote climaxed a
long debate which began Monday
afternoon and extended past mid
night. The result, announced at
2:40 a.m. EDT, was 215-58.
In rolling up the impressive
margin, Brochado had the support
of his own moderate Social Demo
cratic Parly, Goulart's Labor Par
ty and the Progressive Socialist
Party.
Brochado, a 51-ycar-old law pro
fessor, is a political protege of
Rio Grande Do Sul state Gover
nor Lconcl Brizola whose seizure
without compensation of the $8
million U.S. -owned International
Telephone and Telegraph compa
ny facilities earlier this . year
touched off a political storm.

In Algeria
ALGIERS (UPI)-Premier Ben
Youssef Ben Khedda made
strong bid at home for public
support of his regime today and
in Morocco his emissaries sought
reconciliation with dissident Vice
Premier Mohammed Ben Bella.
Ben Khedda told a Municipal
Stadium rally here Monday night
that his moderate, pro-Western
government is the "only author
ity in Algeria" and "all Algerians
ought to recognize it."
Morocco's King Hassan II, who
aided the Algerian nationalists in
their seven-year war against
France, appeared to be the best
hope of bringing the two feuding
tactions together.

Ben Bella is in Uie Moroccan
capital of Rabat and this would
give him an opportunity to talk
with Hassan today.
Ben Khedda's information min

dispatched to Rabat Sunday to
see if there was any ground lor
reconciliation with Ben Bella.
There was no report on the
progress of their talRs out in

CAPE CANAVERAL (UPI)
The United States successful
rocketed the world's first interna

The 170-pound moonlet began

to bring a future in which radio
and "live" television programs
will be relayed around the world
by space stations.

by the American Telephone and

by a scientist who writes science

the National Aeronautics and

in communications since the In
vention of the telephone 86 years
ago.
The Federal Space Agency con
firmed that "the Telstar commu
nications satellite Is in orbit."
Close To Planned Orbit
In Washington, NASA said the
orbit achieved by Telstar ap
peared to be almost exactly the
planned one. The Intention was to
send the satellite into a path
ranging from about 600 to 3,500
miles in distance from the earth.
It was to complete a circuit every
160 minutes.
Preliminary rough calculations
indicated the spacecraft was cir
cling the globe every 157.8 min
utes in an orbit ranging In alti
tude from 593 miles at the low
point to 3,502 at the high. The
angle of inclination to the equator
was 44,7 degrees, compared to a
planned Inclination of 45.
It was the 10th straight success
ful launch by NASA's Delta
rocket.
Robert Gray of the National
Aeronautics and Space Admini
stration said tracking stations at
Cape Canaveral and on Antigua
Island had picked up signals from
the satellite that were "good and
strong.
Everything appeared to have
functioned completely normally,'
he said.
The $1 million moonlet was ex
pected to open the door to a fu
ture when radio and "live" tele
vision programs will be relayed
around the world by stations In
space.
If Telstar achieved the planned
orbit, efforts were to be made
within 12 hours to transmit photo
graphs and news dispatches from
Andover, Maine, and Holmdel,
N.J., by way of the satellite.
Within a week or to, trans

Co. scientist who writes science
fiction, the 170 pound electronic
marvel is considered one of the
most important advances In com
munications since the invention of
the telephone 86 years ago.
Telstar is the forerunner of sat
ellites which may bring the thrill
of an Olympics event in Tokyo,
the beauty of a Bolshol ballet in
Moscow or the pageantry of a
king's coronation in Europe di
