Capture Claimed
The Indonesian news agency
Antara claimed Indonesian guer

Demta, SO miles west of Hollan
dia. Antara said heavy fighting
continued around Fak Fak,
south of Vogelkop, and Kai
mana, on the south coast. It said
Fak Fak was under continuous
guerrilla harassment and most
of its population had been evac
uated.
However, AP correspondent
Hal McClure reported from Fak
Fak that life was proceeding
there as usual.
Antara claimed 18 Dutch ma
rines were killed last Tuesday
in a clash near Fak Fak after
hundreds of Indonesian para
troopers had been dropped in
the area. The story was denied
by G. W. J. Van Dyk, chief of
the Netherlands Defense Min
istry's information department.
He said there had been no
Dutch losses since the Indo
nesians began dropping para
troops into West New Guinea
three weeks ago.
Marines Said Cut Off
Antara said the marines,
freshly arrived from Hollandia,
had been cut off from their
main group and driven back in
to the rugged jungles.
President Sukarno told cheer

force with force if the Dutch
want to settle the West New

"We will thank God if we can
settle this Issue peacefully," Su

are prepared to meet force with
force."
Sukarno's government said
Sunday night a general election
scheduled for later this year
had been postponed until West
New Guinea is liberated.

After Dinner
COLUMBIA, S. C. (UPI)
An Armed Forces Day dinner
for 4.000 Ft. Jackson visitors
and servicemen Sunday appar
ently brought violent illness to
about 600 persons treated for
food poisoning.
It was a fried chicken din
ner served in 94-dcgrce weather
which Columbia doctors believ
ed hospitalized almost 200 per
sons in the area.
In fact, the hospitals in the
capital city area were so crowd
ed treating food poison patients
that at least one bus load of
sick persons received a state
highway patrol escort 65 miles.
There were no deaths report
ed from the food poisoning.
Many doctors who treated the
victims diagnosed their illness
as food poisoning but one mili
tary official denied it.
'There is no evidence of food
poisoning, sail Col. Thomas G.
Faison, hospital commander at
Ft. Jackson, after 112 persons
Moscow, said he would take any
job he cm get.
James Rand III, president of
the Rand Corp., has said he felt
a responsibility for Webster and
would attempt to get him a job,
though not with Rand's own
firm.
Webster, wearing the same
blue suit he bought in Celevland
and wore to the U.S.S.R., said
he had no immediate plans ex
cept that he wanted "to rest a
little." He told newsmen he
was confused and tired. He also
appeared nervous.
In New York he told news
men he hoped for a reconcilia
tion with his former wife, Mar
tha, who has divorced him.

at Army Base
had been admitted to Army
medical facilities. Hundreds of
others had been treated by
Army personnel and then re
leased. "It appears to be a combi
nation of heat exhaustion, over
exertion and over-indulgence of
food and drink," he added.
However, while military au
thorities were examining fur
ther into the illnesses, many
local physicians said they were
definitely treating food poison
ing. "We called it acute gastroen
teritis (inflammation of the lin
ing membrane of the stomach
and the intestines) and our pa
tients have been violently ill in
some cases," said one doctor
who treated a number of pa
tients at Baptist Hospital.
Hummingbirds are able to dart
upward, downward, backward or
forward.
The U.S. Embassy in Moscow
said it was informed Webster
left behind a Russian girl and
her baby in Leningrad when he
returned to this country.
Webster said he is in America
to stay,
"I missed my children and
family and wife, of course," he
said. "They treated me well in
Russia but I don't want to go
back."
Webster, who worked as a
plastics technician in the So
viet Union with a salary he
termed equivalent to $500 a
month, said he had made a big
mistake and wanted to rectify
it.
Webster turned in his pass
port and renounced his U.S.
citizenship in October, 1959.
Three months later he applied
for a permit to re-enter the
United States but was refused.
He Is here on a Soviet pass
port which, he said, is for an
indefinite period. Webster must
seek American citizenship In the
same manner as foreign-born
immigrants. ,

Argentina's
Chief to Rule
By Decree
BUENOS AIRES OP Presi
dent Jose Maria Guido Monday
was accused of returning dicta
torship to Argentina by sending
Congress into a long recess and
suspending political parties. His
purpose was to purge Peronists
from political life.
Backed by the military chiefs
who put him in to replace oust
ed President Arturo Frondizi
three months ago, the mild-man
nered small-town lawyer who
said he never aspired to power
now will govern by decree for
at least a year.
Guido's dictatorship was con
fronted with an immediate test
of strength as workers on the
government-run railroads began
a 24-hour strike at midnight to
protest delays in payment of
salaries and pensions.
Appeal Rejected
Union leaders rebuffed at
tempts by Economics Minister
Alvaro Asogaray to stall off the
walkout to give the regime time
to bring the nation out of what
the government called a finan
cial crisis of the most serious
character.
Guido came under fire from
leaders of his own Intransigent
Radical Party and the opposi
tion groups for his orders recess
ing Congress for a year and
sidelining political parties by
ordering them to reorganize.
Alfredo Vitolo, a major strate
gist of the Intransigent Radicals
who was interior minister in the
Frondizi government, charged
Guido and his military masters
with "a sinister plan to liqui
date the last vestiges of consti
tutional government in South
America's richest and second
largest country.
"A Civil Tyranny'
Alfredo Palacios, veteran So
cialist leader, denounced the
Guido regime as "a civil tyran
ny." In his orders issued after a
six-hour Cabinet session, Guido
said a new Congress would be
elected next March 31 and a
presidential election would be
held by October 1963.
The government "intervened"
all political parties and said it
would issue a new statute pro
viding for their reorganization.
Political party leaders were or
dered to cease their functions.
A government interventor will
be named for each party to su
pervise their reorganization,
