International PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti Haiti has agreed to the Do minican Republic's demand that 22 political refugees in asylum ' In the Dominican Embassy here be allowed to leave the country in safety, diplomatic sources said Wednesday. The decision by Haitian President Francois Duvalicr's gov- . ernmetit appeared to ease further the crisis between Haiti and " its neighbor republic on the Caribbean island of Hispamola.

Dominican charges that Haiti Envoy Briefs JFK on Talks In Moscow WASHINGTON I Soviet . Premier Khrushchev has sent personal good wishes to Presi- . dent Kennedy and assurances . that the Soviet envoy in Laos has been told to work with Brit ish and American ambassadors to try to settle the Laotian cri sis. This was the oral message Un dersecretary of State W. Averell Harrlman said he conveyed Tuesday night to the President. It was the reply to a written message Kennedy bad sent Khrushchev. Harriman, who returned from . Moscow Monday night, briefed the President on his 314 hour talk with Khrushchev. After his report, the tart- tongued Harriman talked with newsmen in the White House lobby. Was he 'hopeful" about a Lao tian settlement, a newsman asked. "Everybody always asks me that," said Harriman. "That (hopeful) isn't a word that's in my vocabulary." But, he added, the civil war in Laos has been transferred from the battlefield to the po litical arena and it will "be there for gomtptime to come, I think.". Why didn't Khrushchev send a written reply to Kennedy's message? "The Beard was about to ar rive," said Harriman, in refer ence to Cuban Prime Minister Fidel Castro, and the Soviet pre mier waa vary busy. , Successful Bidder 1 VANCOUVER, Wash.

Uprising Threat Although the Haitian-Domini can tension had lessened, Britain opponents of Duvalier have marked May as the month for an uprising against his au tocratic regime and there still were fears of violence within the country.

HONOLULU Wl Betty Miller, 37, who made history Tuesday by flying her small plane from California to Ha waii alone, said she had only one hours' fuel left when she landed. "I should have had three hours left, but I wasn't wor ried," said the Santa Monica, Calif., housewife. Looking fresh, Mrs. Miller - opened the cockpit door of her twin-e n g i n e d Piper Apache and yelled to wel comers: "'How's the ground feel?" Her Hawaii trip was the first leg of her planned solo flight to Brisbane, Australia, a 7,100-mile ocean-spanning trip that will include stops at Canton Island and Fiji.

' Indonesians Take Over West Irian' KOTABARU, West Irian l Indonesia took over West New Guinea, the last remnant of Hol land's East Indian empire, Wednesday and renamed it West Irian. The United Nations trans ferred control of the western half of the world's second larg est island at ceremonies in Hollandia, Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur's wartime headquarters. The peaceful transfer ended 13 years -of struggle by Indo nesia for the 159.000 square miles of jungles and mountains and 700,000 Papuan people, most of them still in the Stone Age. Australia governs Eastern New Guinea. In keening with Sukarno's pol icy of erasing traces of Indo nesia s former Dutcn masters, West New Guinea was renamed West Irian (Hot Land). Hollan dia, the capital, became Kota baru (New Town). Foreign Minister Subandrio led the delegation of Indonesian officials at the ceremony. The Dutch government did not take part. The Dutch flag was low ered for the last time Dec. 31, three months afte ths United Nations started administering the territory. Sukarno is due here Saturday and will have 12,000 troops on hand to greet him. The sleepy tropical capital already looks like an armed camp. Indonesia began shipping in infantrymen and military equipment Monday night. Formosa Population TAIPEI Ufl Formosa's popu lation reached 11,581,214 at the end of February, not including the estimated 600,000 men of the Chinese Nationalist armed forces. Senators Express Middle East Fears WASHINGTON W Senate Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen of Illinois Wednesday called the Middle East situation "explosive and dangerous" and said it holds the threat of a third. world war. Dirksen thus added his voice to bipartisan expressions of fear of possible Arab aggression against Israel. . "If we expect to maintain peace and to prevent a war erupting in the Middle East, as is always a threat, we are going to have to monitor the situa tion very carefully;" Dirksen said in an interview. "You cannot permit the situa tion to drift too long, because drift is always dangerous," he added. Sen. Jacob K. Javits, R-N.Y., who spearheaded a flood of Senate speeches Tuesday de manding U.S. intervention, pre dicted there will be increased pressure "for a change in our policy of drift." Javits proposed, among other things, that the United States attempt to get Britain, France, and other Western nations to join it in a collective defense agreement with Israel. He warned that "time is running out on peace in the Middle East." His speech set off bipartisan appeals for this and other U.S. action, including a call by Sen. Hubert Humphrey of Minne sota, assistant Democratic leader, for an embargo on arms shipments to the Middle East and stronger U.N. peace-keeping operations. The speeches were arranged in informal consultation to give emphasis to pressure on the administration. Javits and other speakers ac cused the Soviet Union of pour ing guns, tanks, planes and ship into Egypt to reequip President Gamal Abdel Nasser's armiea and of using every opportunity to stir up the Arabs because of Israel's commitment to th West. Humphrey declared that tha increased buildup of arms in the Middle East is "a loaded pistol pointed at the heart of all humanity" and represents "a lighted fuse which could ignite nuclear war." Humphrey proposed an em bargo on arms shipments to the area coupled with a regional arms control agreement, a larg er U.N. peacekeeping force, and the assignment of U.N. observ ers throughout the Middle East. Sen. Clifford Case, R-NJ., pic tured U.S. policy as one of "wishful waiting" in the hops the problem would go away. The United States, Case de clared, should make clear "tha threat to Israel's security will be met in full measure by U.S. assistance." Sen. John Pastore, D-R.I., warned that an armed clash be tween Israel and Arab states "would involve us" and might set off a world war. Sen. Ernest Gruening, D Alaska, protested pouring U.S. money into Egypt to establish the United Arab Republic as a "100 per cent police state" when Israel is a loyal ally. Sen. Paul Douglas, D-IU., said one of Nasser's avowed pur poses is to "drive Israel into the sea." Attorney Enters Plea PORTLAND MS Attorney Al ton John Bassett, 57, Portland, pleaded innocent Tuesday to a charge of evading federal in come taxes. 1 j ffil IK BABY WEEK 9 11 i GLASSES , 1 1 vV v .- ON CREDIT!
