She shed tears again when she received the, condolences of kings, prime ministers and oth er world leaders at the White House after the funeral. She also met privately with Presi dent Charles de Gaulle of France; Prince Philip of Brit ain; Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia and President Eamon De Valera of Ireland. The world wept more openly. The funeral was a monument to dignity and in her widow's veil she walked with pride. It was done with the ceremo nial flare her husband loved so much ... the muffled drums the sound of bagpipes . . . and Taps that touched the heart. It was John Jr.'s third birth day, but no one could celebrate. The little boy, instead, saluted the casket of his father when the military band played "Hail to the Chief" in mournful strains as the youngster emerged from St. Matthews Cathedral, with his mother and sister.

Lee H. Oswald. The term was used by the newspaper Die Welt ic Ham bug, West Germany, which said "there is a feeling of shame that the law. which should explore the facts, was prevented from doing so. Politi cal mists which also gathered should have been cleared. Now they thicken to poisonous clouds." Police Crfticiied Criticism of the Dallas police was general, particularly for the announcement that the in vestigation into the President's murder was closed with the death of Oswald. Newspapers voiced tne suspicion mat there remained much of Importance still unknown in the case. There was much speculation about a plot or an accomplice for Oswald. One Vienna news paper, Arbeiter-Zeitung, report ed without confirmation that Os wald had been seen in the night club owned by his killer, Jack Ruby, only three days before the President's death. The London Daily Mail re ported "whispers" that "Oswald was a tool who was used and then liquidated." London's Daily Sketch doubted he could have carried out the killing without an accomplice and sug gested the either right-wing ex tremists or Communist nations had a hand in it. Jokes Won't Be Funny Britain's Guardian said iokrs about Texans "will never again seem funny. The trouble with the image of the Texan is the six-shooter at the waist." The Abdendpost of Frankfurt, Germany, charged that Ruby, "the dubious strip-tease boss, well-known to police, was not stopped when he approached Lee Oswald as though to shake his hand. Our photos show the guard did not even react when the murderer had already pulled his gun." . west Berlins Morgcnoost quotea a state Department or nciai as navlng said, "It can not be ruled out that Ruby and uswaid belonged to an assas sin's ring. It is possible that Ruby silenced Oswald to cover the men behind the plot." victim OI UonsniracvT The Telegraf, another West Berlin newspaper, said Oswald was shot "under the eyes of po nce wno prooaoiy were not able to block the deed. Perhaps thev did not want to." "Was Kennedy a victim of an isolated act or of a conspir acy?" asked La Suisse of Ge neva, Switzerland. East Germany's Communist newspapers said again that ex treme rightists assassinated Kennedy and then killed Os wald to cover up their tracks. As a result, they said, "Interna tional contempt is growing for a nation that boasts it is 'the freest and most Democratic in the world'." Over-the-Counter Western Slocks By United Pres.

She Oswald's Widow Faces With Two Children, No DALLAS (UPI) -Mrs. Ma rina Nicholaevna Oswald faced the future today with two tiny children, no money, a stigma on her name and one certain wish. She does not want to go back to her native Russia. The 23-year-old widow's con stant companions were Secret Service agents. Friends said two magazine correspondents also were with her and she might be selling her life story. There had been private offers of donations. But other than that, they said, she has no funds. Since her 24-year-old husband was arrested as the assassin of President Kennedy, Mrs. Os wald has appeared briefly at the edges of the drama. She came and went at the police head quarters, always with her two-year-old baby June Lee and Marina Rachel, the five-week-old baby born at Parkland Me morial Hospital where the President and her husband died Terrorists Blast Venezuela Lines PUERTO LA CRUZ, Venezue la (UPI) Terrorists dynamited a cluster of six U.S.-owned oil and gas pipelines near this northeastern port before dawn Monday, starting a fire that raged all morning, it was re ported today. The wrecked pipelines includ ed three operated by the Mcne Grande Oil Company, a Standard-Gulf subsidiary; two belong ing to the Moblloil Company and a natural gas line operated by a Gulf subsidiary. A Mene Grande spokesman said the act of sabotage tempor arily halted oil and gas ship ments through the blasted lines but did not affect the company's operations or its export ship ments. In the "oil capital" of Mara- caibo, Gov. Luis Vera Gomez of Zulia State announced the ar rest of "several" extreme left ist leaders as an apparent pre caution against attempts to dis rupt Sunday's presidential elec tion. Vera said those under arrest included Armando Faria Rin- :on, known in leftist circles as 'Major David," and a number of leftists caught with explo sives or subversive propaganda in their possession. Castro - Communist tcrronsls have been trying to sabotage the election because parties of the extreme led wore not allowed to nominate candidates. Goldmark Libel Hearing Resumes OKANOGAN, Wash. (UPI) -Trial of the $225,000 John Gold mark libel suit resumed in Oka nogan County Superior Court today after being in recess since President Kennedy was shot Fri day morning. Testifying when the court took Its usual mid-morning recess f"t day was Mrs. Edna Rince char, New York City, sister of Mrs. John Goldmark. Goldmark and his wife, Sally, seek damages for statements made during the 192 primary election campaign which they claim linked them to commu nism. Trial of the suit opened Nov. 4 and is expected to continue Into next year. Today was the only day of court scheduled this week because of the Thanksgiv ing Day holiday. Marina Oswald, widow of the Kennedy, weeps as she views is holding her daughter, June. of their wounds. Mrs. Oswald, whose English is limited to a few simple words, is one of three women widowed by the assassination. Unlike Mrs. Kennedy and Mrs. J. D. Tippitt, wife of the slain Dallas policeman, Mrs. Oswald was not permitted to see her husband's body until it was brought to the cemetery. There Stock Market Opens On Heavy Trading; Dow Jones NEW YORK (UPI) - The stock market soared today in the heaviest first -hour trading in more than 30 years following a shutdown in tribute to the late President Kennedy. Dow-Jones industrial average down 21.16 at the market's pre mature close Friday, was up 10.47 at the end of the first hour. Trading during the first 60 minutes amounted to 2,040, 000 shares heaviest since the 2,102,000 shares traded on June 3, 1933. Today was the fifth highest first-hour trading In history. Buy Orders Credited Wall Street attributed the early rise, stemming from an overwhelming accumulation of buy orders during the three days since last week's closing session, to two factors. The first was the three-day hiatus In which investors had a chance to reflect on the impli cations of the President's death. The other, according to New York Stock Exchange President Keith Funston. was the announcement by the ex change of a plan to protect cus tomers of Ira Haupt & Com pany. The Haupt firm was suspend ed from trading last week after it was caught in a commodity market margin squeeze. The plan, contingent upon an absence of legal proceedings against the firm, called upon the exchange to make avail able up to $12 million, to be ad ministered by a liquidator, and for deferment by a banking Weather ronr.cAsTS Mcdtord and vicinity: Valley fog tonight.

The $11 billion tax reduction bill, passed by the House Sept. 25, is stalled in the Senate Fi nance Committee almost cer tainly until next year. But in a moving, 30-mlnute speech to 35 governors Mondav night, Johnson said it was his firm intention to seek action on most of President Kennedy's domestic programs, including the big tax cut bill and civil rights legislation. According to reports of the meeting, the new Chief Execu tive indicated that the tax pro gram would occupy a promi nent place in his speech to a joint session of Congress Wednesday. At the very minimum, Senate observers expect Johnson to urge the tax-writing panel to catch up on the few days it has lost and finish public hearings Portland Senator Gets Telephone Threat PORTLAND (UPI) - Sheriff Donald E.
