OREOON PAGE S A ; pFiq- m mmm k . r A v 2 -" A 1 rCT-' Diplomatic Break Looms Between Two Countries Hl'ATKMAI.A (AP A diplo matic break between Guatemala and neishborinc Mexico loomed today because Guatemalan planes shot up three boats charged with fishing illegally in territorial waters. Mexico said two of the boats were hers. The owner of one was killed and a sailor and a cook were wounded while shrimping le gally in Mexican waters, reports from Mexico City contended. A Mexican senator said diplo matic relations probably would be broken if Guatemala didn't apologize. The press office of Guatemalan President Miguel Ydigoras Ku- entes announced the machinegun ning attack by air force planes Wednesday without specifying the boats nationalities. The announcement said two of the boats followed signals from the planes and ran aground at Tilapa. more than KM miles down the Pacific coast from the Mexi can border. Authorities later dis closed that five wounded crewmen had been interned in the military hospital in this capital, 60 miles inland from lilapa. The authorities refused fo iden tify the five but said two were in serious condition. The third boat was reported sailing in ditliculty for Champeri co, about 30 miles inside Guate mala. There was no indication of its nationality. Gen. Ydigoras Fuentes had said Monday that I'.S. and Mexican boats were fishing illegafly in the nation's Pacific waters. These "bandits and pirates" would he fired upon beginning Wednesday, the president warned. The Mexi can government said such attacks would violate international law. After the attack, Ydigoras Fu- entcs told reporters the air force had acted "in defense of our ter ritorial waters and coasts." He added a hint that fishermen might be encased in arms smuggling. The Mexican F'oreign Ministry called the situation "undeniably grave" and said it would take proper measures when official re ports had been received. Rodolfo Brena Torres, chairman of the Mexican Senate steering committee, said diplomatic rela tions probably would be broken to day if Guatemala did not present diplomatic excuses. Mexico s 3lst military ?.one with headquarters at Tapachula near the Guatemalan border was put on alert. One Mexican account said their two boats were fishing at the mouth of the Suchiale River, which forms the border at the coast. Another Mexican report said the attack occurred near San Benito, 20 miles inside Mexico. APPOINTKD PORTLAND (AP)-The Oregon Wheat Growers League Wednes day appointed Andrew J.
