Socialists Oust Norway Cabinet OSLO (UPI) -Norway's first non-socialist government in 28 years resigned today, only four weeks after it took office. Conservative Prime Minister John Lyng, defeated Friday night in his first important parliamen tary vote, handed his cabinet's resignation to King Olav V.

Secretary General Trygve Lie. previously industry minister and target "of severe criticism.

Represen tatives of the Socialist People's Party cast the two deciding votes, as they did last month. Soviet Press Lauds Speech MOSCOW (UPI) - The Soviet press praised President Ken nedys United Nations speech to day, but entirely ignored his sug gestion of a joint U.S. - Soviet moonshot. Diplomatic observers said the omission indicated the Kremlin either opposes the idea or wants to study it carefully before tak ing a stand. The Moscow papers quoted gen erously from Kennedy's address belore the U.N. General Assem bly. They mentioned his call for cooperation in space, but said nothing about his specific sugges tion of a joint moon expedition, as an example of such cooperation. Soviet press reaction appeared favorable to Kennedys stale inenis urging an ena to tne com war and peaceful competition be tween East and West. The government organ Izvestia headlined its report "favorable winds are blowing." "President Kennedy supported those hopes on which, the 18th general assembly opened. His po sition is a position of cautious op timism," Izvestia said. By quoting at length from the speech the newspapers seemed to echo Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko's reaction at the U.N. it was a "very good" and "con ciliatory" speech.

A two-man mediation team appointed by China Accused Of Violations On Russ Border MOSCOW (UPI) The Soviet government accused China to night of 5,000 border violations since 1960 in moves intended to claim Soviet territory which al legedly once belonged to China, The charge was made in the second installment of a Soviet statement on Sino-Sovict affairs published by the government newspaper Izvestia. The statement said that Chinese fishermen had been poaching on Soviet islands in the Amur River area, and refused to leave when ordered by Soviet Border guards on the ground that the territory belonged to China. The statement said the Soviet government has repeatedly re quested the Chinese to arrange consultations on the demarcation of certain parts of the frontier in . order to avoid misunderstandings but the Chinese have consistently refused to negotiate and are con tinuing to violate the border. The Kremlin described the bor der situation as "alarming, i es pecially in view of the fact that Chinese propaganda has clearly hinted about alleged injustices of the past connected with certain areas of the Soviet-Chinese border." The Soviet government warned: "The artificial creation In our time of territorial problems es pecially among Socialist countries means the pursuit of a dangerous path. If governments today be gins to advance territorial claims on the basis of ancient data, on the basis of ancestral tombs and demand review of historically es tablished borders, it would lead . to nothing good and only create dissension among nations to the joy of the enemies of peace." The statement obviously refer red to the recent publication in China of 18th and 19th century maps which showed that presently-held Soviet territories in Siberia and Asia once neiongea to me im perial Manchu empire. The soviet government iuruier warned that territorial disputes and conflicts were formally used for wars of conquest, and for this rnasnn it urged "noaceful solution of border disputes by means of negotiations." Onlv Friday the soviet union rapped Communist China for using . force in its border dispute with India. In the earlier statement, the So viet Union virtually accused Red China of trying to acquire atomic weapons to blackmail Afro-Asians and Latin Americans into accept ing Peking's leadership.
