Leftists seize
phone company
in Brazil state
BIO DE JANEIRO (UPI)-The
leftist government of Rio Grande
Do Sul state seized the $8 million
National Telephone Company Fri
day night, offering its American
owners only about $400,000 in com
pensation. The International Telephone and
Telegraph Company, operator of
the Brazilian firm, appealed to the
U.S. State Department to press for
reversal of the expropriation or
der. ITT President Harold S. Geneen
said in New York that the seizure
was "repugnant to the Ideals and
aims of the Alliance for Progress"
under which Brazil Is dickering
for a reported $738 million in U.S.
aid.
Seizure of the firm follows a
pattern set by Rio Grande's Gov.
Leonel Brizola. brother-in-law and
chief supporter of President Joao
Goulart Two years ago, Brizola
seized an American-owned power
company and last year he took
over several big Brazilian-owned
ranches "to give to the poor."
Rio Grande's Atty. Gen. Joa
quim Sotter said the state govern
ment had canceled the American
company's 80-year franchise and
taken it over "to assure its con
tinued operation."
News dispatches from Porto
Alegre, the state capital, said the
government had deposited about
$400,000 worth of Brazilian cur
rency in a bank there to "indem
nify" ITT for the seized property.
Geneen said the $400,000 figure
was "ridiculous."
He said the Brizola regime had
been harassing the American com
pany for some time, first impos
ing a rate structure that denied it
"a just return on our investment"
and then trying unsuccessfully
to start a rival firm.
"Obviously, the governor's ac
tion today is a face-saving ges
ture, in view of the collapse of
his publicly announced project to
build his own telephone company
and destroy the American com
pany ..." Geneen said.

Anti-American
outburst mars
Kennedy visit
BANDUNG, Indonesia (UPI) -
The first serious anti-American
incident during Robert F. Kenne
dy's week-long visit to Indonesia
was reported in Surabaya before
the attorney general flew to Ban
dung today.
U.S. Embassy sources in Jakar
ta said the offices of the U.S. In
formation Service and the homes
of the U.S. consul, U.S. vice con
sul and Japanese vice consul in
Surabaya, 420 miles southeast of
Jakarta, were simultaneously at
tacked Friday night by Indonesian
demonstrators.
The sources said windows were
smashed at the U.S. consultate
building and the homes were
damaged, but no injuries were re
ported. The anti-American outburst in
the east Java city marred Kenne
dy's otherwise pleasant visit to
Indonesia. Except for a few sharp
exchanges with Indonesian stu
dents and an egg that was thrown
at him, the attorney general re
ceived a warm reception wher
ever he went in Indonesia.
The President's brother came
by plane this morning to this west
Java city. Kennedy's wife, Ethel,
remained in Jakarta awaiting ber
husband's return later in the day
for a visit to the site of the forth
coming Asian games and a news
conference this evening.

Man perishes
in strange
fiery sacrifice
FREMONT, Calif. (UPI)-A 37-
year-old civilian employe at the
Alameda Naval Air Station ot
tered himself up as a human sac
rifice Friday.
Fred G. Flores set fire to his
house and perished in the flames
in a strange, silent ritual.
Officers said he tried to force
his wife and five children at
knife-point to join him. Failing,
he dived into the fire and died.
Police were investigating reports
that Flores had withdrawn the
family's life savings and tossed
the money into the flames that
consumed him.
Although the Flores home a six.
room one-story residence is lo
cated near a fire station, the de
partment was not called until
Flores was dead in his flaming
house and his family was in a
state of collapse on the lawn out
side. Mrs. Flores said her husband
had been studying "mind sci
ence" recently in San Jose. She
said he had appeared fine and
wholly rational until Thursday
night when he came home "upset
and Irritable."
He stripped to the waist and
began carrying out the children's
books and papers and his lanuly s
personal papers, she said, and set
fire to them.
He went from room to room
making pyramids of blankets,
clothing and personal belongings.
He removed everything from
cupboards and the refrigerator in
the kitchen, telling his wife, "we
won't need this any more. We'll
be provided where we are going."
He ordered Mrs. Flores and the
children to strip to the waist and
took them into the backyard in
the morning, telling them to kneel
in prayer.

ous game is to see how far a dri

sian roulette with the big diesd
locomotive of the railroad line.

in lieu of $50 bail, and subse

any law or ordinance with his
car, Cpl. Pope said, would end
the probationary period with pay
