Salvador Junia
Seeks Support
San Salvador-IUPU-El Salva
dor's new ruling junta appeal
ed today for the support of
democratic nations in its cam
paign to halt the spread of
Castroite - Communist "forces
and doctrines" in the New
World.
One of the new junta's first
acts was to arrest four mem
bers of the previous govern
ment - also a junta - and 30
alleged Communist leaders.
The new regime also ac
cused the Cuban Embassy
here of distributing Commu
nist propaganda, suggesting
that a break between El Sal
vador and Premier Fidel Cas
tro's revolutionary govern
ment could be expected soon.
Col. Anibal Portillo, rank
ing military member of the
new government, said its aim
in overthrowing the leftist
junta which had run the coun
try since Oct. 26 was to "clear
the way for a return to con
stitutionality." Portillo promised the new
five-man junta would "defend
the ideas of Western civiliza
tion." He expressed hope that
"democratic countries will
give us their support."

ed threats from troops loyal
to imprisoned ex-Premier Pa
trice Lumumba.
Reports reaching here said
300 pro - Lumumba troops
were poised on the northern
border of "independent" Ka
tanga Province. Ethiopian
U.N. troops at the railroad
center of Kabalo had reported
earlier that Lumumbist forces
were massing across the bor
der in Kivu Province.
A U.N. spokesman said the
Ethiopians in Kabalo were be
ing reinforced, although there
had been no official c -nfirma-tion
of the reports.
At the same time, it was re
ported that 500 Begian-com-
manded Katanga gendarmes
had moved to Kongolo to re
inforce the small police post
there. At least 25 Belgian of
ficers were reported with the
gendarmes, who would be in
the path of any Lumumba
troops trying to advance
southward into Katanga.

Twining Warns
On Complacency
Over Russ Power
Washington -IUPII- A former
chairman of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff has warned the
United States against falling
into "the complacency of des
pair" through accepting a be
lief that Russia has more mili
tary power.
Retired Gen. Nathan F.
Twining, in a speech Thurs
day night before the National
Security Industrial Associa
tion, said he believed that the
United States was ahead of
Russia in military might.
He said the nation should
not accept the "distorted be
liefs" professed by some ama
teur and professional pessi
mists" who say the nation is
second best to the Russians in
military power.
'These beliefs are distort
ed," he said. "That some peo
ple believe them is bad. What
is even worse, however, is
that so many seem willing to
accept these distortions and
live with them.
"This is what could be
called the complacency of des
pair," he said. "This is what I
must warn against tonight.
This sort of feeling can lead
to a national cringing."
Twining appeared before
the association to accept the
James Forrestal Memorial
Award, given annually to an
American "who has most ef
fectively applied Mr. Forres
tal's ideal to the concepts and
requirements of national se
curity."
Newbry Opposes
Cigarette Tax
Salem - (tIPlI - Sen. Lyndel
Newbry (R-Talent) said today
he would rather see income
taxes raised than see a stale
cigarette tax enacted.
He emphasized that neither
seems necessary.
, Such a tax is "discrimin
atory" because it "taxes the
addiction of certain people
to certain products and not
all the people of Oregon,"
Newbry said.
He said he is strongly op
posed to HB 1003, which
would put a 3-cenl tax on each
package of cigarettes. Rising
sentiment against the proposal
appeared to be putting it on
its way to defeat this session.
Newbry said that even if
it should pass, it would no
doubt be referred to the peo
ple - and they have con
sistently rejected it.
