Peiping Plays Down
Growing Rift Between
Chinese and Russians
HONG KONG, 'Wl — Sources
close to the Chinese Communist
party said today Peiping is play
ing down a growing rift between
Red China and the Soviet Union.
Party officials who regularly
brief staff workers and employes
of Communist organizations on
the prevailing party line studious
ly avoid any suggestion of a clash
between Moscow and Peiping, one
Chinese Communist source said.
This line, he said, has not
changed in the last few days de
spite increasing reports in the
West of discord in the Commun
ist camp.
The Soviet Union this week was
reported distributing an anti
Peiping “manifesto.” Red China
was reported to be preparing a
rival circular aimed at rallying
support within the Communist
camp for their position on the
issue of east-west relations.
The main issue between Mos
cow and Peiping centers on inev
itability of war with the West.

Guards and Police, Taking
Each Other For Bandits,
“Shoot It Out“
FORT WORTH, Texas, (41 —
Two sheriff’s deputies and a pair
of armored car service guards,
each thinking the others were
bandits, shot it out Friday night,
wounding two of the men,
“It was the worst mistake in
the world,” said Tarrant County
Sheriff Harlon Wright, “Just one
of those unfortunate things.”
Wounded were Deputy Windle
Coy Ray, 33, and James E. Hut
cherson, 45, a supervisor for the
armored car firm. Both were in
fair condition in a hospital.
Wright said Ray and another
deputy were part of a three-car
stakeout at a supermarket after
receiving word the armored car
would be robbed.
Neither the sheriff’s deputies
nort the armored car officers re
i cognized each other,
j The gunfight started when the
I deputies, wearing civilian clothes,
! halted the guard’s car.
| “Everybody was just keyed up,”
I Hutcherson said from his hospital
bed. Neither side would blame the
I other.
No attempt was made to rob
the armored car.

MACHINES DU YOUR JOB!
Politically . . .
By The Associated Press
Both presidential candidates
j could claim a satisfactory windup
j to the week’s political activity.
Vice President Richard Nixon,
the Republican nominee, returned
to the capital from a Deep South
trip claiming the opposition ticket
| is in “real trouble” in that tradi
i tionally Democratic area.
! Sen. John Kennedy, the Demo
! cratic contender, had the endorse
ment of the AFL - CIO Union
leadership.
“The size and enthusiasm of
the crowds exceeded the highest
estimates we had received in ad
vance,” said Nixon on his return
from Birmingham, Ala., where he
got a warm reception, and At
lanta, Ga., where an estimated
200,00 turned out for him.
Referring to Kennedy and his
running mate, Sen. Lyndon John
son, Nixon said “We believe that
the Kennedy-Johnson ticket is in
real trouble in the South and they
no longer can eonider any South
ern state safe as far as they are
concerned.”
The AFL-CIO General Board,
representing 135 unions, decided
Friday to urge its 14 million mem
bers to support the Democratic
tcket “in the best interests of the
United States and of the labor
movement.”
“On almost every issue between
the money interest and the peo
i pie’s interest Kennedy voted for
| the people, Nixon voted against
| the people,” said a statement is
sued by the board.
Two Republican officials dis
counted the importance of the en
dorsement as an influence on
rank and file union members.
Labor Secretary James Mitchell
said it “should be accepted only
for what it is, the expression of
the personal preference of a
small handful of men who hap
pen to be officials of the AFL
CIO.”
He predicted workers will vote
Republican as, he said, “they did
in 1952 and 1956.”
Republican National Chairman
Thruston Morton said the action
came as no surprise to him and
that he doubted the endorsement
will impress working men and
women.
Twining will Retire Sept. 30

than F. Twining’s retirement as

I Staff will become effective Sept.

the tractor on the 120-acre farm
where the victim lived alone.
E ha i laid in pain sine-. Mon
day when the tractor overturned.
Yingst’s yellow shepherd dog,
Billy, stayed beside him through
the ordeal. When the farmer
scrawled a note and tucked it in
the dog’s collar, he pet refused to
leave.
A rural mail man drove by the
scene of the accident twice, with
in 30 feet of the tractor, but he
did not hear Yingst’s feeble cries.

Soviet Arctic Explorers
Report Discovery Of
Volcano In Ocean
MOSCOW, 0F>—Soviet polar ex
plorers have discovered another
active volcano in the Arctic
Ocean, Tass said Saturday.
Explorer Vasily Antonov de
tected traces of the volcano in
an aerial survey of ice floes in
the northeastern part of the
Chukchi Sea and on the west of
the Beaufort Sea, Tass said he re
ported.
“The entire ice cover in these
! areas looked very disturbed and
| dirty .and its coloring was a
bright rust red. The rusty shade
j of the ice cover might be due to
the effect of oil eruptions,” the
news agency account continued.
Tass noted that Soviet geolog
ists already have pointed to the
possibility of an oil bearing region
on the Arctic between the New
Siberian Islands and Alaska.
