Korneichuk, Soviet author and a leader of the Soviet-sponsored Peace Congress now going on in the Kremlin: The congress was held here under the condition that there would be free speech inside the hall but no demonstrations out side." Philip Seed, 32, a British so cial worker, said his group had offered to give up early plans to demonstrate in front of the American Embassy, if only they could stand silently in Red Square. This was refused, he said, then the deportation threat made. The Russian toughness seemed to have shaken some of the youths, who are used to unhamp ered anti-nuclear marches and demonstrations in their home countries. Kingsley Martin, former edi tor of Britain's New Statesman, was in the square, but took no part. "I am against it. We do not have good will of the Russians for this thing and therefore I will not participate," he said. The group of about 24 walked quietly to the square from their hotel in the next block. About an hour after they got into the area, their banners arrived. Up to this point they had not been molested. In a hesitant manner the group began to unfurl them but none of the flock of sightseers near the Lenin tomb got a chance to read them. Painted in blue on white, in English and Russian, they said "We demand no more Soviet tests," "Condemn Anglo Ameri can tests," and "All people against all tests." Workers' Checks Average $97.03 WASHINGTON OJPD The weekly pay of the average U. S. factory worker climbed to a rec ord high of $97.03 in June, the Labor Department reported Fri day. It said the number of workers on non-farm payrolls increased by about a half-million to a rec ord peak of 55,654,000. The average factory work week regarded as a key eco nomic indicator-failed to show its usual mid summer advance, however. Working hours in manufactur ing plants averaged 40.6 hours last month, an increase of only six minutes. The work week usually expands by three or four times that amount in June.

A Foreign Ministry spokesman said Friday the Indian border land post virtually encircled by about 400 Red Chinese soldiers in lofty Galwan Valley would fire if the Chinese advance any closer. Previously Indian officials said the Indian soldiers had orders only to defend them selves. There has been no arm ed clash since the Chinese force suddenly appeared in the re mote, three-mile high valley last Tuesday and approached the post from east, west and south. The spokesman in a prepared statement said: "There has not been any par ticular change in the situation in the Galwan Valley. We do not expect the Chinese will at tack the post. We cannot, how ever, rule out the possibility that our post may have to fire in self-defense if the Chinese come up any further. "We hope, however, that good sense will prevail and they will, as in other cases in the past, withdraw from the vicin ity of our post." The Chinese have crept up to within 50 yards, according to previous reports. The valley is in the Ladakh area of Kashmir. Red China, in a note Wednesday claimed the area is in Red China's Sinkiang Province, and that the Chinese, not the Indians, were threaten ed with encirclement. The Indians, in a protest, said the post is more than 10 miles west of even the border claimed by Red China. India disputes Peiping's border claim. Informed sources said there were 32 men at the post and there would be no airdropping of supplies to them until the in tentions of the Red Chinese be came clear. The troops were re ported to have supplies for two weeks. 60,998 Visit Fair SEATTLE on Attendance at the Seattle World's Fair: Thursday 60,998. Total 3,989,-892.

Henry M. Jack son, D-Wash., Friday as stand ing a "pretty good chance of approval in the House." Jackson's announcement of the plan, which may settle long controversy, followed approval by the Joint Congressional Atomic Committee Thursday. The compromise involves an offer to private utilities of 50 per cent of the power which would be produced by non-federal generating facilities at the Plutonium-producing r e a c tor, Jackson said. The proposal, without the compromise, was passed by the Senate last year but twice was defeaced in the House. He also announced that a committee amendment to au thorize the power generation and permit snaring the energy will be offered next week to the Atomic Energy Commission au thorization bill.

Wl The Air Force says an Atlas D missile was fired from California almost to the Philippine Islands more than 7,000 miles away. The missile came down in in ternational waters 200 miles east of Mindanao, an island in the Philippine group Thursday, the Air Force said. Described as a routine firing, the Atlas was not armed with a nuclear warhead. In previous launches, Atlases I have soared as far as 10,000 miles. BECAUSE OF THE MANY REQUESTS . . .

Emerging from a two-hour closed-door committee session, Jackson said: "We've at long last reached what appears to be a satisfac tory agreement which make possible construction of the world's largest nuclear power plant." Under the plan, WrPSS would build the generating fa cilities, buy waste steam from the AEC, and feed the output into the Bonneville Power Ad ministration System under ex change agreements.

He charged that the evidence showed a breakdown in func tioning of the Agriculture De partment's vast, nationwide farm aid program which relies heavily on state and county committees of farmers to run it under supervision from Wash ington. The Senate Investigations I subcommittee McClellan heads is checking into why the depart ment delayed cracking down on Estes for a year after a con gressman had offered it evi dence of the Texan's activities. Two Agriculture Department officials testified they agreed with McClellan that the Okla homa State Agricultural Stabil ization and Conservation Com mittee had fallen down on the job. Allotment Transfers But one of them acknowl edged that he had seen as early as May 31, 1961, three of Estes' cotton acreage allotment trans fer deals with Oklahoma farm ers which had alerted him that something was wrong with the deals. Howard Rooney, a member of the department's general counsel staff, said he saw the contracts at the office of Rep. Carl Albert, D-Okla., who was complaining about transfer of the allotments from Oklahoma to Texas. Rooney said he had read in full only one of the contracts, and never personally asked the farmer for an expla nation. Rooney acknowledged that he did not ask Albert's office for a copy of the contracts, but said he ordered an investigation. It wasn't until nearly a year later that the Agriculture De partment finally canceled Es tes' 1961 acreage allotments, de claring the transfers illegal and imposing a $554,000 fine on Es tes.

While certifying Marshall's death a suicide, Texas officials have not ruled out the possibil ity he was murdered. The subcommittee produced Thursday a rifle described as identical to the one which fired five bullets into Marshall's body on June 3, 1961. After watching a staff aide's demonstration of how the bolt action .22 calibre weapon worked, McClellan de clared: "I don't think it takes many deductions to reach the irrevo cable conclusion that no man committed suicide with a weap on like this . . . having to re load it four times more."
