DRIVE HOME A WINNER A '63 PLYMOUTH OR VALIANT! JWTMMtD DtAUM CHRYSLER DICK KNIGHT CO. 33 S. Rivenide, Medford, Oregon JFK Opposed To Aid Reduction in South Viet Nam WASHINGTON (UPI)-Presi-dent Kennedy is opposed to any reduction in U. S. aid to strife torn South Viet Nam despite United States differences with the Diem government. He s.iys such action would only aid the Communists. But the Chief Executive ad mitted Monday night he was concerned about a "deteriora tion" in the war against the Communist - backed Viet Cong guerrillas in Vict Nam, particu larly in the Saigon area. He made it clear the "deteri o r a- tion" he referred to was caused by the Ngo Dinh Diem govern- ments conflict with the Buddhists. The President was interview ed by newscasters David Brink ley and Chct Huntley for the first of their expanded 30-minutc nightly news shows on the Na tional Broadcasting Co. network. It was Kennedy's second ma jor policy statement via tele vision within a week. Last Mon day he said on a Columbia Broadcasting System program that the Vietnamese govern ment should try to win brrk popular support, and maybe some changes were needed. Kennedy said he also was con cerned that Americans would get impatient and demand V. S. withdrawal from the area be- ! cause they do not like events in I Southeast Asia or the Saigon government. Any such action , would only help the Commit-' j nists, he said, adding that "we I must be patient, we must persist." Venezuela Quints Growing Stronger MARACAIHO.

Dr. Kegulo Pachans A n 1 1. the pediatrician attending t h e 3-day.old quints, said each of them has lost is least 3'i ounc es in weight sijee birth Disclosure of Payroll Brings Forth Statement WASHINGTON (UPI) - Pres ident Kennedy said Monday the Central Intelligence Agency cor ordinates its activities with the Defense and State departments. The President said it was not true that CIA pursues independ ent policies which sometimes conflict with other U.S. agen cies. Kennedy said CIA Director John McCone is a member of the National Security Council and attended all of its recent sessions on U.S. policy in South Viet Nam. The President's statement fol lowed disclosure Sunday that the CIA still has on its payroll South Vietnamese forces which raided Buddhist pagodas. The disclosure prompted fresh de mands in the House for tighter congressional control over the CIA. Bills Offered A number of bills have been offered in the House and Sen ate to create a joint committee to ride herd on the CIA, which now gets its money secretly and with knowledge of only a hand ful of key members in Con gress. Reps. Paul G. Rogers (D Fla.) and John B. Anderson (R-Ill.) said the disclosure of continued CIA activity in Viet Nam came in the face of offi cial criticism by this govern ment of the Vietnamese drive against Buddhists. Despite this criticism, reliable sources disclosed that Col. Le Quant Tung, commander of the "special forces" that have spearheaded the anti-Buddhist drive, received Tuesday a regu lar $250,000 installment of the $3 million yearly payment he gets from CIA for support of his troops. Read It in Paper "It begins to appear that the left hand literally does not know what the right hand is doing in the executive branch of the government," said Ander son. He said he read of the CIA activity in the same issue of a morning paper that re ported plans to curb military aid to South Viet Nam unless its anti-Buddhist course is al-1 tcred. ! Rogers called this "another indication of the need for a j joint committee to oversee CIA ; and its intelligence activities." I He said there is rising support j in Congress for such a move. I Anderson said he agreed. I Pakistan's Association With Communist China Said Harming Efforts To Ease Tensions in Asia LONDON (UPI) Pakistan's growing association with Com munist China was reported to day to be harming British and United States efforts to ease tensions in Asia. Diplomatic sources said In dian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru has warned British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan that Western efforts to settle the bitter lndo-Pakistani Kashmir dispute are doomed because of Pakistan's attitude toward Red China. The Indian leader was said to have sent Macmillan and Presi dent Kennedy similar letters aimed at discouraging attempt ed mediation between India and Pakistan on Kashmir. Sources said the situation tends to increase tension in the already troubled area and com plicate plans to help Nehru against Peking. But despite disappointment at Nehru's stand, the sources said, Britain will "keep trying" to ease the 16-year-old dispute over the former princely state of Kashmir. Pakistan is a member of two western defense pacts the Southeast Asia Treaty Organ ization and the Central Treaty Organization and in May, 1954, signed a mutual defense assistance treaty with the Unit ed States. But it has registered heavy criticism of British and U.S. military aid to India to h e 1 p Nehru battle Communist Chinese border attacks. The Pakistanis claim this will upset the military balance of power and that India will use the arms in defense of the part I of Kashmir it now controls. I The Pakistan government re : cently signed a border demar cation treaty with Chommumst China covering part of areas it controls on Kashmir, and an airline service agreement. Some diplomats here believe Nehru's warnings, which appar- j ently came in response to a new , Macmillan overture for settle ment, were designed to have the West put pressure on Pak istan to halt any further involve ment with Peking. The Red Chi nese now are India's No. 1 ene my, although Pakistan consid ers India more of a threat to its security than Red China. The dispute over Kashmir has been on since Britain relinquish ed sovereignty over the Indian empire in 1947. Rogue.Valley Edition Medford, Page 2A' , i mTRIBUNE.
