II Ml ll I Russia Blames India Fighting On Red Chinese MOSCOW (UPI) - The Soviet Union has placed the blame squarely on Peking for start ing the border fighting last fall with India. The Communist party news paper Pravda attacked Peking for trying to justify its action in invading India and "blacken the policy" of other states in volved. Pravda said in an editorial that the Soviets believe the Sino Indian conflict was "favorable only to the forces of imperial ism and reaction" who try to maintain tension in the world. "We have to consider . . . that there are not and never have been grounds for the breaking out of the frontier conflict be tween India and China, let alone for this conflict to reach the stage of armed clashes," it add ed. Sore Point in Relations China's attack on India long has been a sore point in Mos cow's relations with Peking. The Soviets have given India mil lions in aid for many years in an effort to win over India Prime Minister Jawaharlal Neh ru. The Soviets also are involved in a Chinese border dispute of their own. Large sections of present Soviet territory once be longed to China and Peking has dropped hints that it considers the treaties that gave the lands to the Russian czars "unequal." Pravda said the Sino - Indian border remains "one of the hot beds of tension in the world" and said the conflict should have been ended long ago. Tighter Economic Boycott of Cuba Being Demanded B 5 NEW YORK (UPI) - U.S. maritime leaders have branded the administration's economic boycott of Communist Cuba a failure and demanded tougher measures to halt free world trade with the Soviet satellite. Ralph E. Casey, president of the American Merchant Marine Institute and Joseph Curran, head of the National Maritime Union, joined in describing cur rent U.S. pressure on Cuba as ineffectual to date. Casey said the AMMI, repre senting the majority of Ameri can flag shipowners, wanted sanctions imposed against for eign governments as well as foreign shipowners trading with Cuba. French Start Trade "After more than a year of half - way economic measures against Cuba, it is high time we arrested the steady buildup of (Communist) economic power In Cuba," Casey said. In Washington today, govern ment officials said French ships have started trade with Cuba for the first time since Jan. 1, when the U.S. Maritime Administra tion started a "black list" of free world ships trading with Cuba. The officials said the State Department had taken up the matter with the French govern ment, which said has no control over the ships. Urges Stiff Sanctions Curran called for stiff sanc tions against all companies and all ships of those companies en gaged in trade with Cuba. He said the NMU has long sought an extension of economic sanc tions against Cuba. Casey called on free world shipowners in the International Chamber of Shipping to volun tarily withdraw their tonnage from trade with Cuba. He said this would eliminate, overnight, 75 per cent of tonnage presently available to Cuba. This in turn not only would seriously handicap the Castro The Family Council Krtitfir's note: The Pamllr Council consists of a ludee, a pHv-hlptrlst. three rlereymen, three editors ann a women's editor, i r.arh article Is a summary of m family disagreement presented to the Council The Councf! dsals with prohlems. major and minor, 4itrountered by suldance counselor and social workers.

Paul felt he was gypped of property right fully his. But a wedding day is a time to make up. Paul W. I was so hurt and disillusioned by my older broth er whom I had worshipped, that I left town a month after my mother's estate was settled. He hogged everything real es tate, stocks, cash, jewelry. He conveniently forgot that I had chipped in as much as I could and was entitled to more than the few dollars menlioned in the will. My faith in him was de stroyed. I have no desire to see him again. The Council: Blood is not only thicker than water, it's thicker than liquid assets. Your initial error, Paul, was to walk off in a huff.
