U.S. Officials Say
Red China-Russia
Are Disputing
By John M. Hightower
WASHINGTON UP) — Top U. S.
officials were reported convinced
today that a serious dispute has
broken out again between the
leaders of the two greatest Com
munist powers, Russia and Red
China.
The argument could have a
profound impact on Soviet hand
ling of East-West crisis issues,
particularly Berlin and Laos.
Western authorities are trying
to get at the real facts of the
controversy and thus establish a
basis for judging what its effect
on future Sino-Soviet policies
may be.
The most authentic evidence of
the quarrel known to U. S. State
Department experts is the fact
that the Soviet leadership sent
a high-level delegation to Ulan
Bator last week to represent Mos

U.S. Has Given $335,000
Aid to Portuguese Angola
LISBON, Portugal UP — The
American Embassy said Tuesday
the U. S. government has given
$335,000 worth of aid to victims
of the rebellion in Portugal’s West
African territory of Angola.
The statement followed a Portu
guese denial in Luanda, Angola,
that the U. S. government had
given such aid.
The charity organization Caritas
in Luanda said the U. S. govern
ment “had given nothing and had
nothing to do with the gift. It
came from the American Caritas,”
the organization said.
The Embassy said the U. S. gov
ernment had supplied the aid sent'
to Angola and that Caritas had
merely handled distribution.
cow at the 14th anniversary of |
the Mongolian Communist party. ;
But Soviet Premier Khrushchev, j
at the same time, virtually ig- j
nored the far more important 40th
anniversary of the Chinese Com
munist party.
This snub, U. S. experts say,
is unmistakable proof of very
severe differences between Mos
cow and Peiping. The cause of
the current argument is not
known, but it is assumed to be
along the familiar lines of re
cent years — the Red Chinese
favoring tough, expansionist poli
cies for international Communism,
with a risk of nuclear war; the
Russians favoring a more cau
tious policy under the label of
“peaceful co-existence.”
Top Kennedy Administration
officials were deeply interested
in an article published in the
Times in London last Sunday.
This article by Isaac Deutscher,
a long time student of -Soviet
affairs, reported that Khrushchev
had circulated among foreign
Communist parties a letter de
nouncing Red Chinese policies.
ACS Provides $3 Million
Annual Free Services to
Fifty Federal Agencies
From the Office of
SEN. E. L. BARTLETT
By Mary Lee Council
In passing the 1962 fiscal year
appropriation bill for the Defense
Department last week, the House
allowed the budget request of
$6,300,000 for operation and main
tenance of the Alaska Communi
cation System.
One of the members of the
Appropriation subcommittee, Rep.
Flood of Pennsylvania, was criti
cal of the delay in the proposed
disposition of the System to com
mercial operation. Legislation is
pending for the negotiated sale
of the ACS, but no action has
been taken.
Witnesses for the ACS stated
their belief that the commercial
operation of the long lines of the
government would be more econ
omical.
In the I960 fiscal year $4,600
000 was deposited in the U. S.
Treasury from ACS revenue
charged civilian users of the
system. The forecast for fiscal
1961 is $4,800,000 and for 1962
about $5 million. The hearings re
vealed for the first time the value
of free services provided the fed
eral government. The 1960 service
amounted to $3,041,554 for 50
different agencies of which about
$2,356,294 was for the Defense
Department.
Starting on July 1, this year,
the ACS proposes to charge those
governmental agencies placing
long-distance calls through local
commercial facilities at the stan
dard commercial rate for simpli
fication of bookkeeping and ac
counting.
Charts submitted to the sub
committee demonstrated the com
j plete reversal over the years in
the make-up personnel. In the
1 1963 fiscal year the total comple
Two Protestant Churches
Complete First Merger
In Nation’s History
PHILADELPHIA </P) — With a
dramatic “aloha,” the Hawaiian
word meaning a living goodbye
and a living hello, two Protest
ant churches Monday said fare
well to their old ways, and start
ed out on a new course together.
It was the opening of the con
stitutional general synod of the
United Church of Christ, the first
merger in this country of church
es of different national back
grounds and forms of govern
ment.
The merger-completing session
came after 21 years of negotia
tions, referendums, lawsuits, de
lays and other preliminaries.
The new church constitution
combines the Congregational
Christian Churches and the Evan
gelical and Reformed Church, the
first church merger in the United
States uniting demoninations of
different structure and origin.
You’re never too old to learn.
Today more than half a million
folks in the 60-to-70 age bracket
have gone back to school. Some
are studying how to retire, others
are training themselves in new
skills. And isn’t there a great
human majesty in sunset citizens
who have the courage to seek a
fresh purpose and a new dawn?
