world may at last have reached a
turning point after 18 years of
cold war struggle.
Sounds wonderful, doesn't it?
But ' there's a fly in the oint
ment. The fly is President Charles
de Gaulle of France. As this is
written, he hasn't yet said yes
and he hasn't yet said no. What
he will say is as yet known only;
to himsell. He has so tar thrown
two monkey wrenches into the
machinery once when he said
NO to British entry into the
European Common Market and
again when he said NO to t h e
U.S. offer to provide Polaris mis
siles for France if France would
back away from building a nu
clear force of her own and join
up with NATO.
He is a strange and mystic
character. No one ever knows
just what he may do next. Pre-I
sumably, we shall soon find out.
Incidentally
Who knows offhand the origin
of the simile of the fly in the
ointment?
It is from Ecclesiastes, and
with its context it reads:
"The words of wise men are
heard in quiet more than the cry
of him that rulcth among fools.
"Wisdom is better than weap
ons of war; but one sinner de
stroyed! much good.
' "Dead flies cause the ointment

French sources this morning
say De Gaulle will:
1. Reject Premier Khrush
chev's plan for a non-aggression
pact between East and West
in Europe.
2. Refuse to associate France
with the Moscow nuclear ban.
3. Indicate willingness to thaw
out deep - freeze U.S. - French
relations, possibly as a prelude
to a meeting with President Ken
nedy in Washington early next disarmament treaty. This is in

He said Harriman explained that

PARIS (UPIi - President
Charles de Gaulle today rejected
the Moscow partial test ban
agreement and turned down Soviet,
Premier Nikita Khrushchev's non-
aggression pact proposal.
De Gaulle announced he is in
viting the United States, Britain
and Russia to a conference this
year to discuss disarmament of
vehicles for carrying nuclear wea
pons.
At the same time, he declared
emphatically that relations be
tween the United States and
France are based on "friendship
and alliance" and went out of his
way to stress his friendship for
the United States in a gesture
seemingly designed to pave the !
way for a reconciliation meeting
with President Kennedy in Wash
ington early next year.
De Gaulle made his position
known at his first news confer
ence in more than six months. It
lasted one hour and 20 minutes.
The French president said his
country will push ahead w ith its
own nuclear plans unless the Unit
ed States and Soviet Union agree
to destroy and ban all nuclear,
weapons.
"We do not yet seem to have
reached that point," he told the
more than 900 newsmen and of
ficials crowded into the hall of
the presidential Elysee Palace for
the rare conference.
De Gaulle did not flatly state
he will not sign the Moscow
agreement w hich w ill ban nuclear
weapons testing in the at
mosphere, outer space and under
water. But he made it clear that he
would take such a step only as
part of a broader general nuclear
that fallout would; contaminate
the atmosphere of another nation.
Senate Democratic Leader Mike
Mansfield of Montana said the
committee members' questions
were "searching and blunt" and
Harriman's answers were "open
and frank." He said Harriman
assured the senators there were
no gimmicks," nor any "side
agreements" included.
Secretary of State Dean Rusk
said Sunday night in a television
interview (NBC-TV) that the
agreement "may be the turning
point under w hich other questions
can be taken up for exploration.
Rusk On TV
Rusk and Harriman appeared
on the program with Sens. Eu
gene McCarthy, D-Minn., and
television speech Friday night
was interpreted as showing the
administration's firm determina
tion to win public backing for the
agreement as well as the needed
Senate approval.
Weekend comments of law
makers in both parties indicated
growing support for the treaty.
Many still were cautiously avoid
ing all-out endorsement pending
public hearings to be held by the
Foreign Relations group.
Senate GOP Leader Everett M.
Dirksen expressed doubts Sun-
iday about certain provisions of
the treaty. He said senators must
give the pact "the closest exam
ination relative to its impact on
our defense posture and the fu
ture of our nuclear weaponry."

More Than 28,000 Workers Idle
As Lumber Union Tieup Spreads
SEOUL, Korea (UPI) Communist North Korean
raiders today killed two American soldiers and critically
wounded a third. The United Nations Command (UNC)
quickly placed some U S. units on a "reinforced alert
status." i
The Communists crossed into South Korean terri
tory and ambushed a U.S. Army jeep patrol with
submachine gun fire and Soviet-made hand grenades.
I he UNC called it a "vicious unprovoked sneak
attack." There was no sign the Americans had been able
to return the Communists' fire.
The jeep was flying a
white flag that serves to
identify UNC vehicles when
they enter the Demilitarized
Zone (DMZ). The Reds
struck while the jeep was
crossing a 15-foot wooden
bridge across a small
stream, about 10 miles east
of the truce village of Pan-
mttnjom, on a road that runs
along the foot of a hill about
300 feet from the southern
limits of the DMZ, the UNC
said.
"The attack was deliberately
planned, premeditated, and exe
cuted in a grey early dawn," a
UNC spokesman said. As a re
sult of the attack, he added,
"elements of the 1st Cavalry Di
vision were placed on a rein
forced alert status" along the
truce line. The three soldiers were
members of the 1st cavalry.
The victims were not identified
pending notification of relatives.
The wounded soldier had been hit
four times, in the chest, arms,
and legs, and was reported still
unconscious scvcr.il hours after
the attack.
"He may not live," UNC
spokesman Col. George Creel of
Birmingham, Ala., said.
It was the second North Korean
attack on U.S. troops guarding
the 1st Cavalry Division on truce
line duty, were driving to a
guard post in the demilitarized
zone between North and South
Korea. It was about 5:30 a.m.
and they were still in South Ko
rean territory, about 75 feet from
the demilitarized zone, when they
were hit.
The last such attack took place
last November, when North Ko
reans lobbed grenades into a
UNC outpost inside the demilitar
ized zone. One American soldier
was killed and another wounded.

LONDON (UPI) Dr. Stephen
Ward abruptly rested his defense
on morals charges today with a
pica against being made a sacri
fice to the public demand for
punishment of those responsible
for Britain's sex scandal.
The case is expected to go to
the jury Tuesday after sum
mations by the defense and pros
eculion followed by the charge to
the jury by Justice Sir Archie
Marshall.
Defense counsel James Burge

Bailey by announcing the end of

today was a young advertising
executive who said he picked up
playgirl Christine Keeler, 21, in a
coffee bar and had relations with
her at Dr. Ward's flat, but not
for cash.
Begins Summation
Then Burge turned to the jury
of 11 men and one woman to be
gin his summation on the general
theme that Ward was simply a
man who found his own particu
lar fountain of youth was to sur
round himself with pretty girls
and what was wrong with that?
"But," the attorney went on.
"if you are there to make sure
the public conscience, shocked by
a major scandal should be ap
peased and a penally should be
paid, then you could hardly find a
more suitable object for expiation
than the accused who has admit
ted he is a loose liver whose con
duct has been such as to deprive
him of sympathy from any quar

But he vigorously denied that

of living on immoral earnings or
of procuring young girls for men

against him which carry a pos

No "Babes In Woods"
Burge said that neither Miss
Keeler, 21, nor her colleague,
Marilyn (Mandy) Rice-Davies, 18,
were "babes in the woods" when
Ward befriended them, but there
was a vast difference between be
ing promiscuous and being a

Race Case
Act Upheld
WASHINGTON (UPI)-A .spe
cialized Air Force unit has been
retrieving 70 per cent of the cap
sules launched from the West
Coast in a space age catch game
involving rockets, secret satellites
and transport planes.
After more than a year of si
lence, the Air Force Sunday re
leased sketchy details on the se
cret launches of the satellites into
polar orbits and the "routine" re
covery by a Hawaii-based squad
ron of capsules ejected from
them.
The meager details were made
public in connection with the pres
entation of the "outstanding unit
award" to the 65Mrd Test Squad
ron at Hickam Air Force Base,
Honolulu, in recognition of "its
record in the development and
Japplicalion of aerial techniques
for the recovery ol space cap
sules returned from orbiting sat
ellites." The first U.S. recovery of a
man-made object from space was
accomplished Aug. 11, 1'JliO, when
the Air Force's Discoverer 13
satellite ejected a capsule. It
floated down through the atmos
phere and into the Pacilic Ocean
where it was fished out by Navy
divers.
A CUO airplane of the Hickam-1
based squadron made the first
aerial recovery of a space cap
sule Aug. 19, 19(K), grabbing it
and its parachute out of the air
over the Pacific.
However, early last year, the
Defense Department imposed Dis

lites under a secrecy curtain
Ever since, there have been an
nouncements on launchings from
Vandcnberg Air Force Base and
adjacent Point Arguello, Calif.,
but nothing has been said of what
was launched.
In Sunday's statement, the Air
Force revealed that more than
70 per cent of the satellites
launched last year with recovery
as a goal actually were retrieved
by the 6393rd Squadron. In a more
recent series, KB per cent were
recovered.
