Mike Mansfield. Mont., in a trnmatic prologue to the show down vote, read to a hushed chamber a letter from the lato President Kennedy, written a week before his assassination, vigorously opiwsing the restric tion. The letter dated Nov. 15 and addressed to Mansfield said, in part. "I write lo urge in the strongest terms that the Senate should not approve" any legis lation to bar government under writing of the sales. "It would work against the in terest of the United Stales in crippling the American export er in fair competition with other free countries (or non-strategic trade with the Communist world," the letter said. Calling such a proposal "against the national Interest," Ihe letlor was never actually signed by the President, but bore typewritten the ending: "Sincerely. John E. Kennedy. " The bill had led to suspension of U.S. -Soviet negotiations or the sale of $200 million worth of surplus wheat. Because the Russians also arc balking over shipping rates, defeat of the measure does not mean the sale will go through, but the vote did remove a major road block to further negotiations. Tho issue of Export-Import Bank credit guarantees arose after the Russians indicated they would pay 25 per cent down in cash, but wanted short term credit terms of 18 months to pay off tho balance.

SHWOIt United Press International Western Europe's leaders to day praised President Johnson and promised their support for him. But Communist China's al lies continued to attack both Johnson and President Kennedy. Peking, which published a cartoon captioned "Kennedy Bites The Dust" two days alt er the President's death, made no direct attacks itself nxi.iy but transmitted those of its Asian satellites over the New China News Agency, monitored in Tokyo. the I.aolian Communist radio accused Kennedy of having been "the mastermind, behind U.S. double dealing on world is sues" and said "the outlook of the new U.S. President is in es sence the same as that of Ken nedy.'1 The reaction in Western Eu rope and even in the Soviet Un ion was in sharp contrast. The Soviet press continued to praise Kennedy as a man of courage who "though not with out hesitation and somewhat be latedly, symbolized the energy and common sense of the Amer ican nation." The European satellites echoed these views. Bulgaria's Radio Sofia called the late Pres ident a "talented and realistic statesman." British Labor party leader Harold Wilson, who will deal with Johnson as prime minister if he wins the forthcoming na tional elections, said on his re turn from Washington Tuesday night that the new President has "a deep determination to carry on wilh some of the things that President Kennedy starlet, par ticularly civil l ights and the set tlement of the racial conflict." Prime Minister Sir Alec Douglas-Home, who will oppose Wil son in the election, conferred with Johnson in Washington Tuesday. W ilson's d e p u t y. George Brown, predicted the Russians will test Johnson's will soon with new provocations in Ber lin. Klamath Fa III.

LONGWOItTH I nited Press International LONDON (LTD Newspa pers in Western and Commun ist Europe today kept up their criticism of the Dallas police (or their handling of the slay ings of President Kennedy and his accused assassin. Lee H. Oswald. There was renewed singula tion on both sides of the Iron t'uriain that the President's dca'ji. and possibly Oswald's, was the result of a plot. Moscow Radio blamed Kenne dy's a.-.sassjnation directly on ultra-conservatives in the Unit ed States. Tlie Soviet govern ment newspaper Izvestia said the "American system" shared the blame. A Portuguese newspaper. Di ai io de Lisboa. said the climate for murder was generated by American gangster movies. French and Italian newspapers speculated that Oswald had an accomplice. Warns of Civil War Lonoym's Daily Sketch warned that Kennedy's slaying could touch off another American Civ il War "a disaster of unparal leled magnitude for' the West." The Paris newspaper Libera tion accused the Dallas police of withhulding information. It gave this versfon of the events in Dallas: "There is no doubt President Kennedy fell into a trap. He was the victim of a plot, and ... it is evident thSt the Dallas police, protectors of gangsters like Huby. played a role you can only describe as questiona ble. They created a 'defendant' then allowed one of their stool pigeons to kill him." The newspaper gave no source for its information.
