U.S. Confused About Tito
Visit Talks With Soviet
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
WASHINGTON 11 The U.S.
government is reported to be still
completely in the dark and deep
ly concerned about the purpose of
Yugoslav President Tito's present
talks with Russian leaders.
In this uncertain situation. State
Department officials are consider
ing Communist Yugoslavia's ur
gent request for emergency Amer
ican wheat shipments to meet a
severe shortage.
There was reason today to be
lieve the wheat request may be
separated from the broader prob
lem confronting President Eisen
hower, who faces a decision by
Oct. 16 on whether or not Yugo
slavia is still eligible for general
economic and military assistance
from the United States.
Doria Captain
Faces Queries
NEW YORK (UP)-The captain
of the sunken Andrea Doria faces
cross-examination today on his
account of the Atlantic sea dis
aster which contradicts testimony
of the Stockholm's third officer.
Capt. Piero Calamai testified
Thursday that the July 25-26 col
lision and loss of 50 lives would
"certainly" have been averted if
the onrushing Stockholm had sig
naled it was turning right in the
minutes before the crash.
The 59-year old Italian Line
master said one short blast of the
Stockholm's whistle would have
given him time to turn his ship
to the right and prevent the col
lision. Calamai's testimony on the 12th
day of the pre-trial hearings to fix
the blame for the disaster was
sharply contradictory to the ac
count of the events leading up to
the crash given by the Stock
holm's third officer,, Ernest Car-stens-Johannsen.
Carstens-Johannsen, 26, claimed
the ships would have safely passed
if the Andrea Doria had not made
a sudden left turn in front of the
oncoming Stockholm. The third of
ficer said he had ordered the
Stockholm's engines . reversed and
a hard right turn to avert the
crash.

VIRDEN, Man. (UP) Ten per
sons were killed and one serious
ly injured late' Thursday night
when two automobiles collided
head-on on the Trans - Canada
Highway 10 miles -southeast of

It was the second case of 10
deaths from a single traffic acci
dent in as many days. About 24
hours earlier, 10 persons died in
a highway collision at Muncie,
Ind.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police
said there were six persons in one
car and only the driver survived.
All five in the other car were
killed.
The cars both were 1955 models.
One was registered in Saskatche
wan and the other -in Manitoba.
Four of the victims were chil
dren. A woman and the four children
were killed in a car bearing. Sas
katchewan license plates. A man
driving the car was in serious
condition in a hospital at Virden.
Five men in the other car, which
was owned by Standard Oil Com
pany, were killed instantly.

The best available Information
is that Eisenhower may announce
then that he is without suificient
information to rule on the broad
question but that he believes Yu
goslavia to be qualified for U.S.
wheat shipments. ,
On the whole Yugoslav aid pro
gram, Congress specified that
such help be halted entirely unless
Eisenhower determines by Oct. 16
not only that Yugoslavia is follow
ing an independent foreign policy
but that continuing economic and
arms aid to her would be in the
national interest.
There is hope at the State De
partment that before the deadline
for this decision, there will be
some word from Tito, relayed by
U.S. Ambassador James W. Hid
dlcberger. Dispatches from Bel
grade and Moscow indicated Tito
might return home today.
Utncials here tend to discount
the general speculation from Bel
grade and elsewhere in Europe
that Tito suddenly flew to the
Crimea with Soviet Communist
party boss Nikita Khrushchev to
help defend Khrushchev against
colleagues critical of the program
to discredit Joseph istalin.
Official speculation in Washing
ton tends to the line that Khrush
chev asked Tito to go to Russia
to debate Yugoslavia's relations
with the Soviet Union and with
the Eastern European satellite
countries.
There is considerable belief here
that the Russians have put the
strongest possible pressures on Ti
to to stop trying to promote great
er independence for the satellite
countries and to mesh his policies
more closely with those of the So
viets. , . -
Most officials here say they
think Tito is determined to retain
the independence of action he
staked out for himself when he
broke with Moscow in 1948.

Three Killed
In Air Crash
RIVERSIDE. Calif. W A six-
jet B47 bomber crashed and ex
ploded near here Friday, and a
witness said the flames "went a
good half mile in the air."
A B47 normally carries a crew
of three but sometimes a fourth
is aboard.
Officials ' at March Air Force
Base near here, where the bom
ber was stationed, said they did
not know how many were aboard
the plane. March is a B47 base.
The scene of the crash is. about
18 miles southeast of here.
A witness of the crash, Bob
Hewitt, told a reporter: "The ex
plosion rocked my house and the
flames went a good half mile in
the air." The plane went down
about a mile from Hewitt's "farm
home, which is in a district that is
part of the runway approach area
for March AFB.
Hewitt said the plane crashed in
a potato field, a mile east of
Highway 395. He said he heard no
noise that would indicate the big
bomber was in trouble as it went
over his house.
The farmer said he saw no
bodies at the scene, nor had he
seen any parachutes before the
crash.
Two Newport

SEATTLE Wl Two Newport,

Heavy seas running over the
bar capsized the converted metal
lifeboat and the two men were
swept under the surface before
