Page 2A EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Wed., March 13, 1963 Iron Miners Demonstrate Strike Unity Convoy Cheered In Paris Suburb PARIS I Rugged iron miners from Lorraine rolled Into Paris Wednesday to press their strike demands for more pay and assurance that foreign competition won't put them out of work. The 2,000 miners from pits in eastern France were given a hero's welcome by throngs who swarmed the streets of the largely Communist suburb of Pantin. Two-Week Strike The strikers, some wearing working clothes, helmets and head lamps, made the 150-mile trip by automobile. Union lead ers urged them to "remain disciplined and not fall into a trap of provocation." The iron miners have been on strike for two weeks. Their trip to Paris also demonstrated solidarity with 170,000 coal miners who kept up their 13-day-old strike despite government draft or ders. The cabinet met with Presi dent Charles dc Gaulle and Premier Georges Pompidou. It Is expected to devote most of its attention to the prolonged coal walkout threatening to hamstring the nation's industry. Compromise Sought The miners say they will not return to work until the gov ernment revokes the draft or der and opens negotiations. The government bas refused to talk until the miners obey the draft order to return to work. Some subordinate officials were reported trying to work out a compromise whereby the draft would be lifted simultane ously with a return to work and a start on negotiations, til - " U ' ' .

PARIS W Machine-gun fire smashed windows on an express train speeding across central France toward Paris Tuesday night. Flying glass injured sev en passengers, two seriously. Police blamed -he attack on the anti-De Gaulle Secret Army Organization, although no prom inent politicians were known to be aboard the train. The train was gunned about 9 p.m. just south of Villenauve- Surallier. Its lighted windows were an easy moving target. At least a dozen bullets hit the coaches, some breaking windows and embedding them so'ves near the ceilings. The train made a brief un scheduled halt at Villeneuvc- Sur-Allicr where one passenger was taken off and rushed to a hospital in MoulinF. The train no.t halted at Nfvcrs where another passen ger, cut in the eye by flying gi..ss, was hospitalized.

More Details Given On Inspection Plan GENEVA vn The United States substantially reduced Wednesday the area it said each on-site inspection would cover to police a ban on underground nuclear tests. U. S. Ambassador Charles C. Stclle put before the 17-nation disarmament conference the Disc Jockey Fined $300 NEW YORK m The case against Alan Freed, disc jockey who pleaded guilty to taking pay from record companies, was closed Tuesday. His representative paid the $300 fine assessed against Freed on his guilty pleas. Judge Man uel A. Gomez then dismissed a bench warrant for Frced's arrest. The warrant was issued Jan. 29 when Freed failed to pay the fine. Freed pleaded guilty Dec. 17 to accepting $2,000 from the Cosnat Distributing Co. and $700 from the Superior Record Sales Co. for favoring their records on his radio show. Originally, Freed had been accused of accepting a total of $30,600 from seven record com panics. first detailed Western plan for inspection procedures. The plan provides that any on-site inspection would cover a maximum of S00 square kilo meters 193 square miles. Pre viously the United States de manded inspection of an area 700 to 800 square kilometers 270 to 308 square miles to de termine whether a suspicious underground disturbance was an earthquake or a banned nu clear explosion. "A careful review of the sci entific problems concerned in determining the location of an epi-center" the center of the disturbance led the United States to offer the reduced In spection area, Stclle said. Stclle told the conference the Soviet Union was given advance notice of the detailed proposal In the hope of obtaining some Russian response. 'Thus far there has been no reply," he said. The test ban talks are dead locked by the Soviet refusal to discuss any inspection proce dures until the West accepts the Soviet offer of an annual maximum of three on-site in spections. Stclle said the American sug gestions were worked out on the assumption that there would be seven inspections a year on the territory of each of the nuclear powers. South Koreans Round Up Plot Suspects SEOUL, South Korea Hi A roundup of persons accused of plotting to overthrow South Ko rea's military government has netted 30 persons so far, includ ing three officers who held key posts in the regime. Officials Wednesday reported the arrest of ten more persons, including marine Maj. Gen. Kim Yoon-kun. He resigned from the ruling junta last month after serving as chairman of the For eign Affairs-Defense subcom mittee. Among those arrested on Mon day were retired marine Lt. Gen. Kim Dong-ha, a former junta member, and army Lt. Gen. Park Im-hang, who was construction minister until his arrest All three were known to be opponents of Kim Chong-pil, the retired army brigadier general I who headed the secret police until January. Their arrest raised speculation that moves might be under way to smooth the way for Kim Chong-pil's re turn to politics. Kim Chong-pil, who was the No. 2 man in the junta, quit his police post to organize a political party that planned to run the junta chief, Gen. Chung Hee Park, for president. Pres sure from political opponents forced Park to disavow political ambitions, and Kim went on a SO-day tour abroad as an am bassador at large. Official announcements have been sketchy concerning the al leged plot and the arrests. The government said the plotters planned to assassinate General Park, other junta and govern ment figures and prominent civilian politicians.
