Soviet body
gives okay
to test pact
MOSCOW (UPI) The Presidi
um of the Supreme Soviet this
nation's highest legislative body-
unanimously ratified the partial
nuclear test ban treaty today.
The ratification, a formality un
der the Soviet system, came less
than 24 hours after the U.S. Sen
ate also voted overwhelmingly to
ratify the treaty, which prohibits
nuclear explosions in the atmos
phere, outer space and under
water.
The Supreme Soviet's Foreign
Affairs committees earlier ree-
commended ratification and the
Soviet press has praised the
treaty constantly since the day it
was signed.
The Supreme Soviet acts as the
Soviet legislature. The Presidium
handles the Supreme Soviet's

JFK asks parity
of opportunity
for rural people
GRAND FORKS. N. D. (UPI)
President Kennedy sped into
the Northern Plains states today
with a call for "parity of oppor
tunity" to help rural people come
closer to the standards of urban
living.
His "nonpolitical" ' tour "picked
up definite partisan tinges as it
moved along.
On the second day of his fast-
moving tour devoted to the sub
ject of conservation and develop
ment of natural resources, Ken
nedy flew from Duluth, Minn., to
Grand Forks to accept an honor
ary degree from the University
of North Dakota and address
himself to rural electrification
problems of the vast farmlands
of this area.
From Grand Forks, the Presi
dent's itinerary took him to Chey
enne, Wyo.; an afternoon speech
at the University of Wyoming in
Laramie; another speech date at
Billings, Mont, and an overnight
stop at the famed Wyoming re
sort and hunting area, Jackson
Hole.
Compares Living Standards
In his prepared speech at the
University of North Dakota, Ken
nedy said there was a great and
continuing need for narrowing the
differences in living standards of
American city and rural popula
tions, particularly in the cost of
electric power which becomes in
creasingly needed in mechanized
farming.
"We are seeking, in short, true
parity of opportunity, but it will
not come overnight," he said.
"To achieve it will require a
new impetus in electrification de
velopment, new starts in our mul
tipurpose dam programs, and
new and greater use of our land,
water, timber and wildlife re
sources." The "non-political" label ap
plied by the White House to Ken
nedy's 10,000-mile swing to the
West was becoming somewhat
academic. The President in a
speaking appearance at Duluth
Tuesday night threw away much
of his prepared text which had"
dealt with conservation pro
grams. He hammered instead at the
need for public support of his $11
billion tax cut bill which is ex
pected to come up for a vote in
the House of Representatives today.

Sordid crime
story unfolds
at hearing
WASHINGTON (UPI) A sordid
story of gangland bloodbaths and
how organized crime has set up
its own private governnment
'resting on a base of human suf
fering and moral corrosion"
was unfolded today by Atty. Gen.
Robert F. Kennedy.
Kennedy gave the account to
the Senate investigations subcom
mittee in calling for approval of
two new weapons against crime:
Immunity for witnesses in rack
eteering investigations and a
broader federal wire-tap law.
Committee Chairman John L.
McClellan, D-Ark., said in an
opening statement that he has in
mind a law that would prohibit
membership in such a criminal
and secret organization as "Cosa
Nostra."
Both Kennedy and McClellan
said the gangland organization
attempts to be a form of govern
ment unto itself and outside the
law.
The star witness at the hear
ings, expected to last about three
weeks, will be Joseph Valachi,
currently the underworld's most
celebrated stool pigeon. He has
been "singing" to federal au
thorities about Cosa Nostra and
has been marked for death.
Kennedy told the senators there
existed in this country "a private
government of organized crime, a
government with an annual in
come of billions, resting on a
base of human suffering and
moral corrosion."
McClellan said "this tightly
knit association of professional
criminals demands and gets com
plete dedication and unquestioned
obedience by its members to or
ders, instructions and commands
from the ruling authority or boss
thereof."
"Family, religion and country
are all secondary and required
to be subservient to the interest
of this vicious criminal syndi
cate," McClellan added.

New leaders
claim blow
at Communism
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican
Republic (UPI) The armed
forces deposed and arrested
President Juan Bosch today in a
military coup proclaimed as a
blow against the rise of Commu
nism in the Dominican Republic.
The revolt leaders dissolved
parliament, set up a provisional
government, outlawed the new
constitution which Bosch rammed
through the congress last July
and outlawed the Communist par
ty.
Bosch and his entire cabinet
were held prisoners in the presi
dential palace. A manifesto
signed by 26 ranking officers of
the army, navy, air force and po
lice pledged continued Dominican
adherence to international com
mitments. The coup leaders included Gen
erals Antonio Imbert and Luis
Amiama, only survivors of the
group of rebels who assassinated
ex-dictator Rafael L. Trujillo to
start the Dominican Republic on
its march to democracy after
more than three decades of dic
tatorship.
Following up the manifesto's
outlawing of the Communist paM
ty, police immediately tnrew a
cordon around the headquarters
of the pro-Castro 14th of June
party.
No Bloodshed Reported
The coup was pulled off at 3
a.m. First reports indicated it
war carried out without gunfire
or bloodshed.
Radio Santo Domingo, the gov
ernment transmitter, told people
of the coup in a pre dawn an
nouncement, saying "the corrupt
and pro-Communist government of
Juan Bosch has been deposed by
a coup d'etat.
The announcement called for
public culm and order and
warned citizens against being
tricked Into violence by Commu
nist agitators. All schools were
closed by government order.
A bulletin broadcast by Radio
Santo Domingo invited the oppo
sition National Civic Union, Social
Democrat Alliance, Dominican
Revolutionary Vanguard, Christian
Democrat Progressive parties to
choose a provisional government.
It said the leaders of the par
tics named had accepted the in
vitation and met immediately to
draft a government
The coup came just 24 hours
after apparent collapse of an anti
Communist general strike called
by opponents of Bosch.
The coup also coincided with
new tensions between Haiti and
the Dominican Republic over bor
der incidents. The Hosch regime
earlier this week had protested
to the Organization of American
states against alleged Haitian
"aggression," only to admit later
the Haitian fire directed against
Dominican soil was being direct
ed against guerrilla forces.

sugar crop was off sharply, re

ings, and new foreign investments

Furthermore, observers said
Bosch had shown a marked lack
of administrative ability, and was
stubborn and vain in his dealings
with other leaders.
Followers in his own Dominican
Revolutionary Party (PRD) had
become disillusioned and were
drifting away in droves.
In addition, the Dominican Re
public had been on the verge of
war with neighboring Haiti over

recent months.
Haiti and the Dominican Re
public share the island of Hispan

have been far from friendly
neighbors over the years.
l.S. studies
reports of
latest coup
WASHINGTON (UPI) U. 8.
officials in Washington said to
day they have received reports)
that Dominican President Juan
Bosch and members of his cabi
net were being deported from
Santo Domingo.
The State Department said it
was in touch with the U. S. em
bassy in Santo Domingo on the
military coup and that it had con
firmed the arrest of Bosch. The
embassy also reported that condi
tions in the city were outwardly
calm.
U. S. foreign policy officials
were closeted in meetings to de
cide how to deal with the situa
tion. The coup was regarded as a
blow to U. S. policy interests in
Latin America, which has been
aimed at encouraging and foster
ing democratic governments.
Until 1961 the Dominican Re
public was ruled for 30 years by
a repressive dictatorship. In May,
1961 dictator Rafael Leonidas
Trujillo was assassinated. Since
then, with an aid policy linked to
the country's progress toward de
mocracy, the United States has
been attempting to aid the Do
minican Republic toward demo
cratic constitutional rule.
U. S. officials said that though
they so far had only sketchy in
formation, the coup did not ap
pear at first glance to involve a
return of Trujillo interests to pow
er. Meanwhile, it was disclosed
that Bosch made urgent appeals
this morning to several Latin
American presidents In an effort
to head off the military coup.
