Two Killed as Passenger Train Hits Engine at Track Crossing African Delegates Prepare Moderate Resolution on Portugal Colonization United Nations, N.Y. - UPI -African delegations today were preparing a resolution on Portuguese colonial i s m more moderate than Tues day's Soviet demand in the Security Council that Portu gal get out of Africa this year. The council, in the third day of debate on Portugal's African colonies, awaited the reply of Portuguese Foreign Minister Alberto Franco No gueira to charges of misrule raised by the 32 African na tions and the Soviet Union. But the African resolution, expected to be presented to the council today or Thurs day, was much less drastic than the Soviet demand voiced Tuesday by Ambassa dor Nikolai T. Federenko. He told the council that Portugal's "colonial regime should be liquidated before the end of this year" and that economic and diplomatic sanctions should be voted "un equivocally" against Portugal. The four African diplomats who presented the case against Portugal on instructions of the recent African summit con ference in Addis Ababa went no further than asking the council to set a time limit - date unspecified - for Portu gal to free its colonies or face sanctions. Portuguese sources said. No gueira was preparing a long rebuttal to the African indict ment and planned to speak for an hour or more. Fedorenko went almost that long Tuesday in a sweeping indictment of NATO assist ance to Portugal in repression of natives in Angola, Mozam bique and Portugese Guinea. Except for charging that the United States supplied mili tary aid to Portugal - to the extent of $268 million dollars -Fedorenko, perhaps reflect ing the Moscow mood of the nuclear test ban negotia tions,-was mild in his remarks about Washington.
