GSA Won’t Open
Juneau Branch Office
WASHINGTON, UP) — For the
time being, at least, the General
Services Administration will not
open a branch office at Juneau,
according to Senator Bartlett.
Bartlett said yesterday the GSA
informed him that present ar
rangements with an office at An
chorage, are satisfactory but that
a “resurvey of the situation will
be made in the near future.”
Bartlett had asked that a GSA
branch be opened because of a
need for more centralized pur
chasing by governmental agencies.

jU.S. Army To
Leave Iceland
WASHINGTON, UP) — The De
fense Department announced yes
terday that all U. S. Army troops
will be withdrawn from Iceland.
Some. 4,000 U. S. Air Force
and Navy men will remain.
The force to be pulled out con
sists of an Army battalion combat
team of about 1,200 men.
The Army troops will be rede
ployed during the first six months
of 196G.
“Army units stationed in the
United States will - continue to
maintain their capability for im
mediate deployment to Iceland in
case of emergency,” the head
quarters said.
These emergency troops would
be from the Strategic Army Corps
— units of the 82nd and 101st
Airborne Divisions from Ft. Bragg,
N. C., and Ft. Campbell, Ky., and
of the 4th Infantry Division, Ft.
Lewis, Wash.
An Army spokesman said
troops could be rushed to Iceland
within a matter of hours if neces
sary.
The Army said the transfer is
part of the normal redistribution
of forces, and has been under con
sideration for HK'z years.
A spokesman said the with
drawal will have no effect on
United States commitments to the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza
tion. Since 1951, troops have been
in Iceland under a two-nation
agreement with that country, and
have not been a part of the NATO
force.
Defense officials said the change
has no connection with recent
difficulties with Icelandic civi
lians, or with the change two
weeks ago in the Icelandic gov
ernment.

Light on 1st Anniv.
Of Cult Bombing
By DIAL TORGERSON
CHATSWORTH, Calif., UP) —
“This is a symbol of what can
happen to the world.”
The bearded, barefoot man in
a flowing robe pointed to a mass
of ruins where, one year ago yes
terday, a crude bomb killed 10
men, women and children, and
wrecked a religious colony’s head
quatrers.
“Twenty sticks of dynamite did
as much as 20 carloads of dyna
mite.”
One who died was Francis H.
Pencovic, 47-year-old leader of
the cult known as “The Fountain
of the World.” Pencovic called
himself Krishna Venta — “The
Master.”
The two men who did the
bombing died with their victims.
How does Asaiah feel toward
them now?
“We have no animosity at all,”
he said. “The master said you
can’t have love and hate in your
heart at the same time.”
Asaiah, a tall, slim man in his
mid-thirties, stood gazing at the
fire-blackened foundations, all
that remain of the big wdoden
main building in oak-studded Box
Canyon.
Survivors moved to other build
ings and continued the communal
life they have lived since 1951.
They are not rebuilding the head
quarters — “It is a shrine.”
Part of the legacy Venta left
his flock is firm opposition to
killing, to war, to nuclear weap
ons. The men who died to kill
Venta also left a legacy.
This, found after the blast, is a
tape recording in which the bomb
ers explained that they were go
ing to blow up the headquarters
unless Venta agreed to confess
“his crimes.”
The pair, Ralph Muller, 33, and
Peter Kamenoff, 42, said they left
the cult, convinced Venta prac
ticed free love with married and
unmarried members of the flock;
that he practiced medicine with
out a license; that he took Kam
enoff’s $3,000 in financial assets.
They went to the headquarters
with the dynamite in a suitcase
and touched it off during an ar
gument with Venta.
Eighty of the cult’s members
live at Homer, Alaska, where they
Worst Storm In 23
Years Batters
Europe Coastlines
LONDON, W) — Europe’s worst
storm in 23 years was blowing
itself out yesterday, leaving shat
tered ships and 109 dead in its
wake.
But Coastguardsmen, weary
after a five-day battle, warned
the temptest might still have a
deadly sting in its tail.
A little Dutch motor freighter
sank in a collision in the Elbe
Estuary, some seamen remained
in trouble, and blinding blizzards
blanketed parts of Scandinavia.
The toll in lives and shipping
was the heaviest since the great
storm of February, 1936, in which
more than 200 died.
In all, a half dozen vessels have
gone down, and four other flashed
distress calls yesterday.
Snowy gales whipped across
Sweden for the sixth straight day.
The air-sea hunt for crewmen
of the Norwegian freighter Elfrida
and the German ship Merkur was
abandoned when darkness closed
in. All 20 men aboard the Elfrida
and the seven who manned the
Merkur were assumed lost.
The 1,719-ton Norwegian vessel
turned turtle off the south coast
of Norway Wednesday. The Mer
kur, 995 tons, was found wallow
ing and abandoned in the same
general area.
have a branch.
Members renounce their prop
erty. They let their hair grow;
men wear beards. All go bare
foot. They wear long robes and
agree to work for peace “until
peace wins in the world.”
Venta is still the guiding light.
He once told a reporter: “I may
as well say it. I am Christ.”
“The Master was the most bril
liant man I ever knew,” said
Asaiah, the spokesman. “In spite
of all they have accumulated
against him, he lived the Ten
Commandments, he taught the
Ten Commandments, and he de
manded that the people under his
charge live the Ten Command
ments too. But I’m not saying he
will return in the flesh. Only we
know where Venta is today.’’
And where is he?
Asaiah tapped his head. “He is
here. He is inside all of us. Whe
ther he has a physical presence
in which to return doesn’t matter
at all.”
