Police said Buscia confessed he onco was ordered by the Se cret Army Organization (OAS) to kill Pompidou, head of Presi dent Charles dc Gaulle's govern ment.

Mao Seeks :Equal Time "TOKYO Mi Red China flared the Soviet Union Friday to let Peking beam its side of the ideological dispute with Mos cow to the rest of the Commu nist world. Peking accused Moscow of Jamming Red China's broad casts to prevent Communist hloc countries from hearing Mao Tze-tung's side of the ar gument. It called the followers of Soviet Premier Khrushchev cowardly as mice. The new propaganda barrage aimed a the Kremlin was dis tributed by the New China News Agency. It quitted from an article in Red Flag, theoret ical journal of the Chinese Communist party. Red Flag pointed out that the Chinese Communists last week had published the anti-Peking views of Khrushchev, The Com munist party newspaper Pravda and the premier s French sup porters in his quarrel with the Chinese. "Cowardly as mice." Rid Flag continued, "they are scared to death, liny dare not let the. people ot their own countries sec our articles fxtr themselves and have - endeav ored to impose a water-tight embargo.

Other unions awaited the out come of the test of strength. Workers in the gas and electric systems and the railways all operated by the government want more money. The government contends wage increases for Ihe miners will set off a general rise in wages and that in turn will pro duce an inflationary spiral. The miners say France is booming and it's time they got their share. Reports from the major coal mining area about 110 miles north of Paris said that more than 95 per cent of the miners failed to report to the pits Fri day morning. In less important mines the number of strikers ranged from 75 to 93 per cent. Until Thursday night it ap peared De Gaulle had the upper hand. Only about a third of France's 167,000 miners mem bers of the Socialist Workers Force, and the Catholic Chris tian Federation of Workers had called an indefinite strike. The Communist-led General Con federation of Labor, which in cludes the rest of the miners, went along with the idea of a two-day strike only. A French coal miner earns the equivalent of $5.80 a day. The Socialist Workers' Force said the miners want an 11 per cent increase to equal workers' scales in other French indus tries. They also want to reduce the present 46.3-hour work week progressively to 40 hours with no loss of pay.

U.S. Disputes Soviet Claim On Detection Foster Questions Monitoring System GENEVA ifl The chief American disarmament negoti ator expressed doubt Friday that the Soviet Union has been able to monitor all American nuclear tests. He was arguing for the need of cheat-proof controls over a treaty banning nuclear tests. William C. Foster challenged the Soviets to prove otherwise by telling the world where and when the United Slates con ducted underground nuclear tests that never have been an nounced. "The failure of the Soviet Un ion to produce records of events on U. S. soil casts serious doubts on its claims," Foster said. Seek 7 Inspections "Consequently, the present Soviet acceptance of three an nual on-site inspections should be considered as a partial recog nition of reality. The United Stales and Britain arc pressing for a minimum of seven inspections as a guaran tee against violations of a nu clear test ban treaty. Soviet Delegate Semyon K. Tsarapkin rejected appeals by Fester and Canada's Gcn. E. L. M. Burns for detailed negotia tions as long as there is no agreement on the main question of inspection. Tsarapkin said he "nolcd with shock, concern and surprise that the prospects for a treaty arc disappearing. The Soviet Union has made an immense political concession with its of fer of two or three inspections, while the West, and the United Stales in particular, has only increased its demands." 'At Zero Point' British Minister of Stale Jo seph Godber said "The Soviet Union is scfim to velo any discussion on auy mailer except its own issues." A neutral delegation source told newsmen "The test ban ne gotiations arc at zero point." Foster spoke to the confer ence for the last time before returning to Washington Satur day. He reviewed all deadlocked issues in the test ban talks and said the lack of progress is due entirely to a Russian refusal to negotiate.

(AP Wlrepholo) Dorothy Sehiff, owner and editor-in-chief of the New York Post, announced her plans to resume publication of her afternoon paper next Monday.

The treaty how goes before Ihe lower house, or Bundestag, which represents the West Ger man people directly and wields the decisive voice in legisla tion. A vote there is expected later this month. Before the vote, Adenauer defended the treaty he signed last month with President Charles de Gaulle as necessary for further progress toward Eu ropean union and maintenance ot world peace. The chancellor insisted that the trealy docs not clash with West Germany's obligations to (he Common Market, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization or with its other international ob ligations. Treaty Resistance He denied that it would com pel West Germany to join in De G?'.;lle's opposition to Brit ishnembership in the Common Marked and to the U.S. plan for a NATO multination nuclear force. The treaty is encountering re sistance because of the unpop ularity among all political par ties of De Gaulle's grand design for a F'rench-dominated Europe. The treaty calls for frequent consultations among the leaders of the two countries to hammer out common policies in foreign affairs, defense and cultural matters. of OPEN FRIDAYS TIL 9 Against Iraqi Regime Kurds Threaten To Resume Revolt By ALEX EFTY Of the Associated Press NORADIN, Northern Iraq Mullah Mustafa Barzani, leader of the Kurdish revolt in north ern Iraq, says he will order his warriors back into battle against the new Iraqi regime unless the tribesmen receive self rule quickly. Speaking in Russian, the chief said in an interview at his head quarters in the mountains of Northern Iraq that the over throw of Premier Abdul Karim Kassem Feb. 8 was the direct result of the 18-month Kurdish war against the Baghdad regime. "A similar, if not worse, fate will befall anyone else who op poses the establishment of an autonomous Kurdish regime," the Moscow - educated leader said. 10-Day Cease-FIre Barzani, 60, said he ordered a cease-fire when Kassem was overthrown and killed, in order to give the new Baghdad gov ernment a chance to declare its intentions on the Kurdish issue. "I gave them 10 days. Those days are over. I am not prepared to wait indefinitely," said Bar zani, fondling a long Kuraisn dagger. Barzani expressed impatience over the delay in getting word from his special emissary, Jelal Talibani, who went to Baghdad last week to negotiate with lead ers of the new government. Talibani said in Baghdad Thursday that he was hopeful that an agreement with the new government will be reached "within this week." Barzani scoffed at a sugges tion made last week by the new government's minister of stale, Hazem Jawad, that the Kurdish question should be examined by a conference representing all political parties and racial groups in Iraq.

"Then we can go ahead and have a conference." Kurds in Control Except for the main towns and half-dozen beleaguered Iraqi army garrisons, all the high lands north of a line from Kir kuk to Suleimanyia appear to be firmly in Kurdish hands. The Kurdish Democratic Par ty, headed by Barzani, adminis ters several thousand square miles through representatives in each village and township. Barzani wore Kurdish national costume a cross-button jacket with wide bell-bottomed panta loons of grey striped hand-woven wool. A rifle lay on the window sill, and he had two bandoliers of rifle bullets strapped around his waist and a holstercd revolver. A red tur ban rested jauntily on his head. Asked about the strong of his army, Barzani replied: We are stronger than ever now. I have not courted the soldiers as there are two million Kurds in Iraq and all our people could be soldiers if we need them."
