t The demonstrators, mostly British but with a sprinkling of
"Americans and Scandinavians, had been warned earlier they

denounce nuclear testing just beneath the Kremlin walls.

'provocative."

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.

Red Chinese
ToStaPut
NEW DELHI, India (! 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.

How
Over Power Produced at Hanford
Proposal
WASHINGTON on A com
promise proposal over power
production at the Hanford,
Wash., nuclear reactor was de
scribed by Sen. 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

Jackson said:

In Farm Aid Procedures
Senator Demands
o
Drastic Shakeup
WASHINGTON m Sen. John , head of the department's cotton
L. McClellan, D-Ark., demanded I division, testified Thursday that
Frida.P a drastic shakeup of ! during the interim farm aid
farm aid procedures after hear
ing testimony that Oklahoma of
ficials failed to reveal soon
enough their knowledge of Bil
lie Sol Estes' cotton deals.
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. Wilson C. Tucker, deputy

death a suicide, Texas officials
have not ruled out the possibil

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."
