Discontinuance Of
Train Protested
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -
The California Public Utilities
Commission Friday protested by
letter to the Interstate Com
merce Commission against the
proposed discontinuance of
Southern Pacific's Shasta Day
light train between Oakland and
Portland.
The railroad has proposed to
halt its tri-weekly winter service
Jan. 20, but still plans to run
the train between June 10 and
the first day after Labor Day.
The California commis
sion said discontinuance would
force passengers to ride the
Cascade at night or take other
forms of transportation. It asked
that the ICC delay discontinu
ance and hold public hearings
in San Francisco.

South Bend Gets
Retraining Plan
Ready for Jobless
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (UPD-
Federal and local officials met
Saturday to put the finishing
touches on a retraining program
for about 1.000 of the 6,000 per
sons left jobless when Studebak-
er closed its automobile plant
here.
The session look place as ef
forts continued to woo new in
dustry to this northern Indiana
community. ,
Studebaker officials confirmed
Friday night that they were ne
gotiating to turn the firm's de
fense production contracts over
to Litton Industries of Beverly
Hills. Calif.
Officers of both firms refused
to discuss details of the nego
tiations, but it was believed that
Litton would operate here if it
took over Studebaker's con
tracts to produce trucks for
the Army and other defense
agencies.
Local civic leaders Friday
asked President Johnson to con
sider South Bend as a location
for a major space research cen
ter which could mean another
2,000 jobs.

iculture also announced it had
eased the income requirements
for persons eligible to receive
surplus government foodstuffs.

come requirements was primar
ily aimed at the persons left

large number of needy or near
needy families around the state.

Rusk Says
Probing for East-West Peace
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Sec
retary of State Dean Rusk Die-
dicted in an interview released
Saturday that "lilt4 will be a pe
riod of probing for the possibil
ities of peace between East
and West.
"My impression is that there
is a certain soberness in the at
titude of the principal govern
ments of the world; that were
is a recognization that crises
such as the missile crisi in Cu
ba In October 19B2 must be
avoided if possible," Rusk said.
He declared that one of Ihe
"more interesting aspects" of
the recent NATO meeting in
Paris "was the feeling Uiat we
ought to continue to explore
possibilitcs of further agree
ment with the Soviet Union."
Rusk's remarks were made
In the course of a lengthy in
terview with a Japanese broad
caster for release in that coun
try today. The interview was
recorded last Tuesday.
The secretary warned that
Berlin, Germany, Cuba, South
Viet Nam were "still explosive
points that have to be dealt
with and managed." He said,
however, that he thought there
was "a general feeling on the
part of the peoples of the
world that somehow a way to
peace must be found and this
is reflecting itself In the care
with which governments are ex
ploring these possibilities."
Rusk said this caused him to
"enter 1984 with restrained op
timism, with a modest opti
mism," The danger of war in the
world at present, Rusk said, j
stems irom me t oinmunisi con
tention that the world "must be
