Red Chinese,
Indians Clash
TOKYO on Red China accused Indian troopj Friday of
opening ire on the Tibetan border killing a Chinese officer
and warned that war might break out in the area.
The New China News Agency said the shooting took place in
the Chedong region of Tibet, on the disputed frontier, and said
Indian troops "are still firing" at Chinese Communist border
guards.
Peiping said "the situation at present has reached a most
critical point and the flame of war may flare up in the Chedong
area."
The news agency said Indian troops thrust across the border

U.S. Rejects
U2 Charges
WASHINGTON IUPD The
United States has flatly rejected
a Chinese Communist charge
that the United States was re
sponsible for the Chinese Na
tionalist V2 plane shot down
over the Red mainland Sept. 0,
it was disclosed Friday.
The Communist charge was
made, and immediately reject
ed, at a Warsaw meeting Thurs
day between U. S. Ambassador
John M. Cabot and Communist
China's envoy to Poland, Wang
Ping-nan.
Mutual Agreement
State Department Press Of
ficer Lincoln White declined at
briefing Friday to disclose the
subject of the meeting. He said
there was an agreement with
the Chinese Communists not to
release any details of Warsaw
meetings without mutual agree
ment. Other officials said Wang re
peated official charges made
earlier this month by the
Peking radio. The Communists
alleged that Chinese Nationalist
TJ2 flights over the mainland ac
tually were under the direction
of the United States. Peking
cited them as evidence of addi
tional American "aggressions."
No Further Planes
Officials said Cabot told
Wang the same thing the State
Department declared publicly
about ten days ago. It said then
that Nationalist China was per
mitted to buy two U2 planes
from Lockheed Aircraft Corp.
during tho latter part of 19G0.
Officials said that no further
planca of this type had been
furnished the Nationalists. They
also Indicated thero were no
plana to let them replace the
ona they lost.

east India 900 miles east of dis
puted Ladakh, another frontier
hot spot.
The report said the Indians
had "illegally intruded" at mid
night Sept. 20 and opened fire
on Red Chinese border guards
at the Chejao Bridge.
The Indian and Red Chinese
governments have been ex
changing charges for months on
troop movements in the high
remote borderlands of northeast
India.
In the past four years the
Chinese have penetrated and
withdrawn at least four times
from the area.
NEW DELHI, India Wl India
said Friday Communist Chinese
soldiers attacked an Indian
northeast frontier post with gre
nades Thursday night, touching
off a night-long fight in which
three Indians were wounded.
Peiping charged that Indians
opened fire on the Chinese in
the same area, killing one Chi
nese and wounding another.
An Indian spokesman said the
clash started when two Chinese
soldiers crept up to an Indian
post at 9:30 p.m. Thursday.
The Chinese threw grenades
at the Indian post, he said, and
the Indians fired flares which
disclosed "a fairly substantial
number of Chinese soldiers
within a few hundred yards of
the post."
The Chinese thereupon
opened fire and our post had to
return the fire," the spokesman
said. "Intermittent firing by the
Chinese continued until this
morning."
Accidents Fatal

Cuban Missile Site
Could Menace Ships
WASHINGTON 11 A new
missile site on Cuba's north
cast coast could menace impor
tant U. S. Navy shipping lanes.
U. S. officials said Thursday
that Soviet technicians have set
up a missile site near the town
of Banes. They likened it to
Soviet coastal defense installa
tions and said it is believed de
signed for antishipping missiles.
Such missiles would be in the
surface-to-surface class.
Officials spoke of a probable
range of 20 to 35 miles for the
missiles. This would not be
enough to reach Guantanamo,
the U.S. naval base about 60
miles away on the other side of
the island.
However, it would take mis
siles of only slightly more pow
er to threaten that base and the
U.S. warships that anchor in
its harbor.
Puerto Rico Route
Much U.S. Navy traffic passes
along Cuba's north coast on
routes leading to Puerto Rico
where the Navy and Marines
maintain Important bases.
This traffic stays well out
side the three-mile limit and
could go further out in the Car
ibbean, if necessary.
Official pinpointing of the
new missile site near Banes
tended to support Cuban under
ground reports of a possible
move by the Castro government
to build a naval base near
Banes, which is on a big bay
much like Guantanamo's.
Sources in contact with the
Cuban underground told a
newsman several days ago the
Castro government has been
removing families from a re
gion near Banes.
It would be logical to em-
place missiles to defend a naval
base from possible attack.
Torpedo Boats
The Cubans have been get
ting modern torpedo boats
armed with missiles estimated
to have a range of up to 17
miles from the Soviets.
Operating from Bahia de
Nipe, the bay on which Bancs
is located, these craft could
roam the sea lanes which U.S.
destroyers and other Navy craft
patrol.
Cuba hasn't much of a navy
otherwise, but U. S. Navy au
thorities acknowledged the Soviet-supplied
boats "could give
us a nasty time." -
American officials apparently
still regard the Cuban buildup
as defensive including the
newly spotted site near Bancs.
That assessment might well
change if the Cubans received
not only defensive weapons
such as MIG interceptors and
antiaircraft missiles but
ground-to-ground missiles able
to reach the United States.
Puerto Rican
Court Orders
Cargo Seized
Cuban Sugar Held
On Damage Suit
By IIORST BL'CIIHOLZ
Of th Atkociated Preu
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico
A Puerto Rican court has at
tached an S80J.0O0 Cuban sugar
cargo aboard a British freighter
bound for the Soviet Union.
The Soviets and British are ex
pected to fight the order.
The Soviet - chartered Streat
ham Hill, which called here for
minor repairs, was ordered held
and her 120,000-bag cargo un
loaded after a representative of
the Terry Kane heavy machin
ery firm of Miami, Fla., ap
pealed to a superior court in
San Juan.
The Dade County, Fla., court
awarded Kane's firm $883,978
damages July 28, 1961, for na
tionalization of its holdings in
Cuba.
Russian Property
Attorneys for the freighter
said they will seek to lift the
attachment, probably on grounds
that the sugar was bought and
paid for by the Soviet Union
and is no longer Cuban prop
erty. Legal experts here expressed
belief the Soviet Union also
will fight the order through its
embassy in Washington.
Isias Rodriguez Moreno, who
requested the attachment on be
half of the Kane firm, said he
expected the Soviets might
claim title to the cargo.
"In the meanwhile, we have
the sugar and plan to fight for
it," he said.
The disputed cargo nearly
went up in smoke Thursday
night when fire of unknown or
igin broke out in a hold of the
freighter. Dozens of fire fight
en brought the blaze under
control, but the hold still
smoldered.
Chartered for Year
The Puerto Rican court or
der will detain the vessel until
the sugar is unloaded. Then
she presumably will be free to
leave.
The Streatham Hill's captain,
Walter C. Whitting, said the
Soviet Union chartered the ves
sel for a year and the contract
still has a month to go.
The freighter made port in
San Juan last month after a
hole was cut in her hull when
she scraped a reef near Grand
Turk Island while en route from
Cuba to the Soviet Union. She
is still in drydock.
Rodriguez Moreno said he
learned of the ship's cargo two
days ago and went at once to
court.
The Streatham Hill is owned
by the Acadia Overseas Freight
ers Ltd. She has a crew of 44.

Newsman, Wife
HAVANA A Cuban man
and wife employed by U.S.
news organizations were re
leased Thursday after 11 days
in custody. They said offi
cials told them their arrest
was a mistake and apologized.
Raul Casunas, of the New
York Times, and his wife,
Sarita Valdez of the National
Broadcasting Co., were picked
up last Saturday. They denied
reports they had visited camps
of Soviet technicians, saying
they left Havana to visit a
relative and were arrested at
a beach restaurant.
The couple said they were
"well treated and well fed"
by their captors, who ques
tioned them only once during
their captivity.

ALGIERS til Ahmed Ben

More than 70 per cent of Al

The heavy turnout was a blow
