The text of the 4.000-word note was delivered to world capitals during the past 48 hours. It urged a four-point plan which comprised a pact repu diating the use of force in set- Nkrumah Subdues Assailant ACCRA, Ghana (UPD Presi dent Kwame Nkrumah over powered and disarmed the man who tried to kill him with five pistol shots, officials said today. One of the president's secu rity guards was killed by the shots Thursday. It was the third unsuccessful attempt against the 54-year-old Nkrumah in the last 17 months and the fourth since 1956 Officials said Nkrumah took the pistol away from the uniden tified man, who was wearing a . police uniform, and knocked him down before soldiers and police closed in outside flagstaff house, the presidential resi dence. "Don't hurt him. Don't kill hiin. Put your guns, down," the president was quoted as saying. Despite the fact the assailant wore a police uniform, informed sources said it still was not clear whether he actually was. a member of the force. The government said all five shots were fired at close range' Thursday but all missed the president. (In Washington earlier today some American experts were reported to feel the note was an attempt to drive a wedge be tween the United States and its Allies over the Berlin issue They said it appeared to be seeking a pledge from Washing ton to renounce- the threat of force to maintain the access routes to isolated Western Ber lin.) Khrushchev said territorial claims by certain states which were the aggressors in World War II an obvious reference to Germany must be "resolutely rejected as imcompatible with the interests of peace because nothing but a new war may result. Khrushchev did not specify how the proposed agreement was to be arrived at. But he added: It will not be especially dif ficult to agree if, of course, the interested stales will manifest their desire." The appeal, broadcast by Moscow Radio, said, "the So viet Union on its part will do all that is necessary to facili tate resolution of these qucs tions."

He will be the first to leave Italy since 1812. But since the Pope announced plans for the visit last month, world attention has focused on another first the first meeting between a Pope and an Eastern Orthodox patriarch in 526 years. Pope Paul will confer twice with Patriarch Athcnagoris 1 of Constantinople. Their aim is Christian unity, but no one looks for a quick or easy end to the differences that have di vided the 500 million Roman Catholics and 157 million Ortho dox for centuries. Pope Paul's predecessor Pope1 John XGIII, began this drive for Christian unity with the Ec umenical "Council. In carrying it a step further, Pope Paul has had to seek neutral- ground for his meeting with the Orthodox leader, who declined an invito tion to send delegates or attend the council. In so doing, the pontiff has abruptly changed the tradition of the Pope as "prisoner of the Vatican." Until 45 years ago no Pope even ventured out on an auto trip into Rome. The ex ception was Pius XII, forced to First Soviet Wheat Sale $32 Million WASHINGTON (UPI) The Agriculture Department said to- day it has sold $32 million worth of government wheat to a private trader. The announcement did not say so but it was understood the wheat was bound for the Soviet bloc. A department spokesman said the wheat, classified as No. 2 hard amber durum, was sold for $2.50 per bushel (FOB hast Coast. The sale involved 12.9 million bushels. The department would not identify at this time the private trader involved. Sources in Kansas City, Mo., said Thursday night, however, that the Continental Grain Corp. had made a wheat sale to the Soviet Union for about $30 million. An export subsidy bid of 72 cents per bushel for half the wheat to be shipped during Jan ary and February and 73 cents for half to be shipped in March and April was submit ted, the Agriculture Depart ment said. The total export subsidy will amount to $9.3 million, the ag riculture spokesman said. He added that all durum wheat sold for export is handled on an export subsidy bid basis. There is no set export subsidy for tins type of wheat. The private trader paid for the wheat in paymcnt-in-kind certificates. He had shipped wheat abroad previously and received the certificates as his export subsidy. In purchasing the durum for the Soviet bloc, he merely turned in the pay- mcnt-in-kind certificates. The spokesman said the amount of wheat sold would have cost the government $1.8 million annually for storage. sendoff and an even warmer Thus, ho said, the sale rcme- welcome for the pontiff on his gents a substantial savings in go to France by Napoleon in 1804.

An Air Force spokesman said the pilot was unable to tell whether the light came from a flashlight or from some fluores cent object in the sea. Search aircraft returned to the area after sunrise today. Air Force officials reported a confusing pattern of possible SOS signals Thursday afternoon, but they said the three signals Thursday night were clear and strung. The unidentified pilot was about 1,000 miles west of Hick man Air Force Base here when he reported the signals over the frequency of the so-called Gibson Girl" radios, which are standard equipment in sur vival packages on all Air Force 20-man life rafts.

British Set Cyprus Meet NICOSIA, Cyprus (UPD Brit ish "peacemaker" Duncan Sandys returned home today carrying a pledge from the gov ernment of Cyprus to try to re solve differences between its Greek and Turkish communi ties at the conference table. The conference will be held in London, probably by the end of the month. The meeting is expected to be attended by rep resentatives of both the Greek and Turkish factions on this is land, and of Britain, Greece and Turkey the three North At lantic Treaty Organization (NATO) members who have guaranteed the independence of Cyprus. v Fighting between the Greek and Turkish communities on Cyprus has taken an estimated 200 lives in the past 10 days. Cyprus is a member of the Brit ish Commonwealth. Sandys, Britain's minister of Commonwealth relations, de parted Thursday night to end a six day emergency mission to this troubled Mediterranean island. His efforts to find a peaceful solution to the problem of Cy prus were spurred by an an nouncement by Archbishop Ma- kanos, the island s Greek presi dent, that he hopes to abrogate treaties with Britain, Greece and Turkey. Cypriots of Greek descent out number Turks on the island by about four to one. The island's Turkish minority fears that treaty abrogation could be a step toward depriving them of rights guaranteed them under the Cypriot constitution. storage The spokesman' said that un til the durum deal was made. the department had expected durum exports this year to be about. 8 million bushels.- -The deal represents sales about one and one-half times (his expec tation Trade circles speculated that the government was subsidizing through a back door approach part of the cost of shipping the wheat to the Soviet Union. The shipping cost has been the mam road block to conclu sion of largo scale sales of American wheat to the Soviet Union which has been reported interested in up to $275 million worth or more of American wheat. Signs that the government may be subsidizing part of the shipping cost were seen in the rate of export subsidy which the Agriculture Department ap proved on the sale. The subsidy amounts to 72 cents per bushel on half of the 12.9 million bushel sale and 73 cents per bushel on the rest.

The front-running choice of the n a I i o n's conservatives stepped from his $100,000 man sion to face a gathering of 100 reporters and cameramen in a dazzling sun to make his announcement. He also indicated he would file for re-election to his Senate seat, which probably would be sought by Arizona Gov. Paul Fannin if Goldwater gains the GOP nominalion.
