Rusk Takes LBJ Report To NATO WASHINGTON (UPI Secre tary of State Dean Rusk flew to Paris today, bearing with him a special message from President Johnson to the NATO ministerial council meeting. Rusk will attend the meeting, which opens Monday in the French capital, and confer with llicd leaders on the next West ern strategy move in the shaky cold war truce. He will be joined Saturday by Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara and Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon. Rusk's plane took off shortly before 8 a.m. EST from near by Andrews Air Force Base, Md. Arrival in Paris is sched uled at 3:15 p.m. EST (9:15 p. m. Paris time). Defense Sec retary Robert S. McNamara leaves tonight for the meeting and will be followed Saturday by Treasury Secretary C. Doug las Dillon. U.S. officials said they ex pectcd the NAIO session, as well as individual meetings Rusk will have with the other foreign ministers outside the formal conference, to be fo cused primarily on a political assessment on East-West rcla tions. The United States is partial larly anxious to sound out its partners on the wisdom of try ing to reach other tension-lowering agreements with the Rus sians following the limited nu-j clear test ban treaty. i American officials said that: so far they had found Soviet!

Military Closure Draws WASHINGTON (UPI) The Defense Department order clos ing 26 military bases from New York to California brought a barrage of protests today from Congress, including charges of false economy. But Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara indicated Thurs day that the closing orders were Viet Nam Air Crashes Claim 8 Americans SAIGON, South Viet Nam (UPI) Two U.S. Army aircraft a helicopter and a light plane crashed in unrelated incidents Thursday, apparently killing eight American servicemen, it was announced today. The heli copter was reported shot down by Communist ground fire. A U.S. military spokesman said a U.S. Army H-37 helicop ter with five American soldiers aboard crashed in the Mekong River Delta about 60 miles southeast of Saigon. Four men were killed and one seriously injured. In the other incident, the spokesman said the wreckage of a U.S. "Otter" light trans port plane with four Americans and three Vietnamese, aboard was found during the night 500 feet from the peak of a 7,000- foot mountain in the jungles 160 miles north of Saigon. There was no sign of survivors. If all eight deaths are finally confirmed, they will bring the toll of Americans killed in ac tion here to 128, with 80 of them this year. L'fc, (a'bart tiid'iant h .

While in Southern California- where he has spent winters in recent years, Eisenhower will terve as marshal of the Pada- dvna Itose Parade. Base Order Protest part of a new economy cam paign that would gear savings to spending. Until now. that has not al ways been the case. In tho past because of a steady buildup in Polaris submarines and other defense programs, the Defense Department had to explain with each cost reduction why spend ing was increasing. Nothing placated Congress, however. Sen. Kennedy B. Keat ing, R-N. Y., introduced a bill to block the base closings in economically depressed areas. Rep. Samuel S. Stratton, D-N.Y. promised to turn the Pentagon upside down before accepting the cutbacks. New York stands to lose seven installations. Rep. Bob Wilson, R - Calif., said the decision to close the San Diego naval repair facility lacked logic in view of other "pump-priming" programs. Wil son said he has asked Assistant Navy Secretary Kenneth BeLieu to reconsider the closure on the basis of "economic horse sense." ( Under McNamara's order, a total of 33 bases would be shut down over a three and one-half year period. Twenty six of the bases were in the United States. The seven others were , in three foreign countries, but were not identified until the governments concerned can be informed. In his news conference, Mc Namara said the closings will result in a "net loss" of 8,500 civilian jobs. It was evident, however, that many other civil ian workers at the bases will have to make long distance moves in order to keep their government Jobs. In these cases the government will pay for the moving expenses. McNamara talked of actual reductions which will bring de fense denartment civilian . cni- plbyin'cnt to the lowest -total-in 15 years. The increase in mill tary spending since McNamara took office has been from J43 billion . proposed by President Eisenhower in the last budget he submitted to Congress, to an estimated $51 billion for the year ending next July 1.

The army meanwhile moved troop reinforcements from Co chabamba in 10 trucks and two Jeeps toward the mining area. The hostages, cooped up In Prosecutor Says Jack Ruby Sane DALLAS (UPI) Dist.

Action May Curtail Red Space Funds MOSCOW (UPI)-Premier Ni. kits Khrushchev threw the full weight of his oratory today into a final plea for a seven-year economic plan that is likely to curtail Soviet defense and space budgets. The 69-year-old government and party leader started his windup speech before the plen ary session of the Communist party's ruling Central Commit- tee today. Khrushchev was expected to speak for two hours, with offi cial reports on the speech ex pected later tonight. About 5,000 party experts and technicians attending the plen um heard Khrushchev expound on the urgent need of a 42 bil lion rubles ($46.2 billion) invest ment in the chemical industry during tho next seven years. The plan to revitalize the chemiccl industry, with partic- jular emphasis on chemical fer tilizers to boost the nation's chronically failing agricultural program, was the sole item on tho agenda. Khrushchev himself presided over the special . committee which drafted a decree approv ing the seven-year project. The plenum was held in the Kremlin's Palace of Congres ses. The plenum was running an extra day, through Saturday morning, to allow the 175 vot ing members to give formal approval to the project for a chemical revolution that is bound to affect other parts of the Soviet budget. Saturday's meeting, attended only by the 175 full members. and 155 alternates, will allow ",cm a Private discussion on or ganizational and other matters. N. K. Buivakov, chairman oi the State Committee on Chemi cal a.nd Oil Industries, claimed that with the advances projected- Itf ihe- new plaw, the "-Soviet' Union would surpass the United States in oil output by 1970. ' He said the 1970 Soviet . oil production would be between 350 and 390 million tons of oil as compared to an annual pro duction now of 205 million tons. Vcnyamln Dymshlts, chair man of the National Economic Council, told tile 6,000 delegates to the party meeting that pro duction of machinery for new fertilizer plants will be "reached in full" by next year. Khrushchev seeks to triple the production of chemical fertiliz ers in the next seven years as a means of solving the crop shortages that this year forced the Soviets to purchase up to $1 billion in grain from the West. In addition, the chemical in dustry will be able to turn out more consumer goods to satisfy increasing demands. The next stop for the program is to go before the Supreme So viet, the Soviet Parliament, which meets Monday. Khru shchev is expected to address that body, too, but Foreign Min ister Andrei Gromyko is sched uled to make the main speech. II will be the first foreign pol icy statement since the death of President Kennedy. The entire week of parly meetings has been devoted. to agriculture, the Bore spot in a ycor of general Industrial growth and production suc cesses. Since 1960 The coastal counties of Clat sop, Tillamook, Lincoln, Coos and Curry continued to show a loss of population.
