Plane Attack
WASHINGTON W-The United
States, accusing Czechoslovakia
of acting "maliciously" and lying,
has demanded over $271,381 tor
the shooting down of an Ameri
can jet plane last year.
Damages were sought for ihe
loss of an F84 jet fighter near the
boundary dividing the U.S. zone
of Germany from Czechoslovakia
March 10, 1953,
The pilot, Lt. Warren G. Brown
of Henderson, Colo,, parachuted
to safety.
4,500-WOED NOTE
He was flying one of two U.S.
planes dispatched to look into the
presence of a pair of Soviet-built
MIG planes near Pilsen, on the
border. The State Department de
clared radar proved neither Am
erican aircraft left the U.S. zone
at any time.
Thedepartment'sstrongly phras
ed, 4,500-word note was delivered
to the Czech Foreign Ministry m
Prague three days ago. It sug
gested that any dispute over the
claim be placed before the Inter
national Court of Justice.
The U.S. claimed $235,349 tor
the plane and equipment; $25,034
for the "willful and unlawful con-
duet of the Czechoslovak govern
ment"; $10,000 for the pilot, hos
pitalized by the jump, and $1,000
for the second pilot, Capt, Donald
c. Smith of Marvsville, Ohio, who
evaded the MIGs and returned to
his base unharmed,
'MALICIOUS' ATTACK
Heretofore, the Czechs have in
sisted the MIGs fired in self-defense
after Brown's plane crossed
into Czechoslovakia and refused
to land as ordered.
The unusually sharp U.S. note
accused Czechoslovakia of "ma
liciously" and without cause di
recting the attack. It termed
"contrary to the truth" Czech as
sertions that the American jets
flew into Czechoslovakia, ignored
an order to land and opened fire.

River Control
Dispute Flares
NEW DELHI, India m The
mutual need for Indus Biver ba
sin waters has embroiled India
and Pakistan in one of their bit
terest disputes.
Each nation Is heaping accu
sations on fhe other in this strug
gle for waters of the Indus and
five tributaries vitally need
ed by both for irrigation and
power.
The atmosphere has become
so tense many Western diplomats
are apprehensive India ana Pak
istan may become irrevocably es-:
tranged.
IRRIGATION PLAN
The long-smoldering Indus dis
pute burst into flame last month.
It began when India and Pakis
tan gained their freedom in 1947.
The division of the subcontinent,
after the British left, placed the
headwaters of the Indus Basin in
Indian hanrds. However, the wat
ers fed an intricate canal system
irrigating millions of acres in
side Pakistan's borders. Thus.
Pakistan had the pipeline, but
India controlled the taps.
India said it needed the waters
for its own irrigatioa system.
Pakistan retorted it needed them
to keep its fertile lands from re
verting to desert.
Two years ago the World Bank
entered the dispute and got In
dia to promise not to tamper
with the Indus Basin in any way
that would harm Faksstan,
DAM OPENED
Last spring the bank came up
with a proposal, exact details of
which have not been released.
India accepted the recommenda
tion, but when Pakistan wavered,
the Indians said they no longer
felt bound to hold up their own
river development projects.
On July 8, India's Prime Min
ister Nehru pressed a button
which opened the gates of the
Nangai Dam, sending waters
from the Eiver Sutlej into the
Nangal-Bhakra canals, Pakistan
angrily protested that India had
violated international commit
ments, Nehru and other Indian
officials insisted they meant no
harm to the Pakistanis, but as
serted they had to go ahead
with the development plans.
I Pakistan goes without wat
er it will not be our fault," one
Indian official declared. "We
have given them seven years to
find alternate water supplies and
they have done nothing.

Varld Council of Churches with
a suggestion that they search for
its solution in "a calm Christian
spirit."
SLOW APPROACH
Benjamin E. Mays, president
of Morehouse Coiiege, Atlanta,
termed racial separation "the
great scandal in the church," and
added:
"The local churches permit
secular bodies such as the state
and federal courts, the United
Nations, big league baseball, pro
fessional boxing, colleges, the
public schools and theaters to
initiate change in the area of
race.
"But even when secular bodies
initiate the change, local church
es, Negro and white, follow slow
ly or not at all.
"It will be a sad commentary
on our life and time if future
historians can vrite that the last
bulwark of segregation based on)
cuiur in uis ujmes mares ana
South Africa was God's church.'
Br. Ben Marais of the Dutch
Reformed Church of South Afri

"Christian men and women in
