Monday The Montgomery Aduertiser November 28, 1940 Asians, Africans May Defy Russia In U. N. UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (AP) -The Soviet Union is at odds with the 46-nation Asian-African group over proposals for a U.

N. declaration against colonialism. Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Valerian Zorin has told members of the powerful group the proposal it has drawn up on the subject is unacceptable to his delegation. He is pressinextra changes to add a urgency to the Asian-African proposal and make it more like the one that Soviet Premier Khrushchev put forward in the General Assembly Sept. 23.

CHANGES WANTED But the group seems unlikely to agree to all the changes he wants. So the 99-nation assembly may witness the rare spectacle of a floor fight between the Russians and the Asians and Africans. The group will meet Monday morning so that the many sponsors of its proposed declaration can sign up and the proposal can be sent to the U. N. Secretariat to be circulated to all The assembly then will convene to take up the Khrushchev declaration.

Zorin, will speak on it. Then the Asian-African declaration is be introduced forYo' mally, probably by Indonesian Delegate Sukardjo Wirjopranoto. GROUP MEETING Zorin's suggestions last the latter proposal, completed only Friday night, will be dealt with at the group meeting. He has asked that the AsianAfrican proposal say independshall be granted to all colonies "without delay" -somewhat as the Soviet proposal says it (shall be granted "forthwith." The Asian African declaration now says only that "immediate steps shall be taken" to transfer powers to colonial peoples. The group hit upon that compromise wording after a disagreement broke out among Guinea, which wanted the declaration to say independence should be granted immediately; Nigeria, which wanted a deadline of 1964, and others, which wanted one of 1962 1963.

Zorin also sought to have the group restore two provisions that it had eliminated from an earlier version of its proposal at the suggestion of some of its members. One of these provisions would have had the assembly begin its declaration against colonialism by saying it had considered the time on its agenda regarding, the Soviet proposal on subject. Another would have had it declare that "fullest support shall be given by all nations to the cause of freedom a and independence for all colonial Some diplomats saw a chance that the group would agree to restore these two paragraphs. But none expected that on such short notice its numerous members could get together on a new formula on how soon colonialism should end. It took them weeks to work out the present formula.

The United States, Britain and France have seen the Asian-African draft but have not yet stated a position on it. LOCAL AND STATE DEATHS MEMORY CHAPE B. R. BROOKS M. N.

Chinese Red Downgrades Talk Of Force Of Arms LONDON (AP) Red foreign minister was quoted Sunday as saying his country believes in peaceful coexistence and does not seek to conquer the capitalist world by force of arms. Marsha' Chen Yi was quoted as terming- "pure fabrication" charges that China wants to extend communism by war. An interview with Chen Yi took up two pages of the tabloid Sunday Graphic. Its author is Stuart Gelder, a British journalist whom the Graphic said had a long interview with Chen Yi in Peiping last month and reported that Western beliefs in China's belligerent forleign policy- are "mistaken." But he added: "The Chinese believe that while imperialism and capitalism exist, the danger of war remains." IN DEADLOCK Soviet and Chinese leaders have been reported in deadlock at the Communist summit meeting in Moscow over differences on the inevitability of war with the West.

What the Chinese have been saying is that- capitalism and communism cannot coexist and that communism must hammer capitalism down. The Soviet stand is that communism can triumph over capitalism without conflict. Gelder quoted Chen Yi as saying: "You know that China was very backward before (the Communists took power), and that what we have achieved today is the result of arduous labor. Why should we a world war to destroy these achievements?" BE PREVENTED At the same time Chen Yi argued that the Chinese people must be kept alert to what he called the dangers of attack by the imperialists. "If some people insist that war can definitely be prevented, what will they the event of the Pentagon or.

"We can- High-Flying Patient Takes Fast Holiday DOUGLAS, Wyo. -A Wyoming State Mental Hospital patient who fled in a stolen airplane rather than return to the Evanston institution from a Thanksgiving holiday, surrendered to authorities here Sunday. Wyoming Aeronautics Director Marvin Stevenson said Will Hart, 22, landed the two-place Aeronca on a county road 48 miles west of Rawlins, Satruday. He pushed the craft into a pit, walked two miles to U.S.

Highway 30 and hitchhiked to Douglas. Authorities said he surrendered Sunday morning after spending the night with his parents. Hart, at one time a student pilot, had been under treatment for alcoholism and was scheduled for release from the hospital next Friday. He had been permitted to accompany another patient, Richard Hendrickson, 24, to Salt Lake City to spend the holiday with relatives of Hendrickson. LEFT ON AIRSTRIP Hendrickson returned to the institution Friday night, saying he had left Hart on an airstrip six miles north of Evanston.

Stevenson said Hart took off from there in an airplane belonging to the Evanston Flying Club and flew to Rock Springs, in the southwest corner of Wyoming, where he landed and spent the night at the airport. He left Rock Springs Saturday morning and flew to the Rawlins area, where he brought the craft down. No damage to the plane was reported. Douglas authorities said Hart gave no reason for his actions, other than to say he wanted to see his parents. Sheriff Harry Ehlers of Evanston said Hart would be held in jail at Douglas until he determines whether the flying intends to file a criminal complaint.

Ehlers said the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Federal Aviation Agency have been notified of the case. Hart had been, the object of al four-state search. African Says U.S. Aiding Belgian Effort In Congo ACCRA, Ghana Kwame Nkrumah Sunday accused, the United States, Britain and France of aiding and abetting Belgium in efforts to regain control over the Congo. In a strongly worded message to U.

N. Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold, he also proposed establishment of an African high command to act either independently or be placed at United Nations disposal to "provide aid for any African country which may find itself in the circumstances which now prevail in the Nkrumah complained bitterly that the Congo had admitted they could no longer provide protection for the Ghana police and embassy staff in Leopoldville. Nkrumah fired off his message to Hammarskjold after talks with Nathaniel Welbeck, Ghana's charge 'affaires in the Congo, who was expelled by army strongman Col. Joseph Mobutu last week. CONFIRM VIEWS Ghana's president said Congo developments confirm views that America, Britain, and France are aiding and abetting Belgians to regain control over the Congo.

He warned that if the cold war raging in that country turns into a hot one "Africa and the world will have no doubt where to place the blame." He said he was addressing an "urgent request to all independent African states to consider as matter of the highest priority the establishment of an African high command, with its military ning headquarters in a suitable location in Africa." This command's resources, he Louisiana (Continued From Page 1) vocates apparently hoped to seize a power balance in the national election, with help from Illinois to gain an immediate political concession.

Illini Canvass Board May Not Certify Jack WASHINGTON (AP)-Sen. Paul H. Douglas, said Sunday the Republican majority on the Illinois Canvass Board may refuse to certify Sen. John F. Kennedy as the winner in the presidential race in that state.

GOP officials have talked hopefully of overturning the Illinois results, which gave Kennedy the state's 27 electoral votes by a popular ballot margin of 8,849 out of almost million cast. The Canvass Board meets Monday, Douglas said, but there is talk in Chicago that it may adjourn without taking any action on the election results. The board has four Republicans. and one Democrat.

I not speak on their behalf, but if we say that it is 100 per cent certain that war can be prevented, this will tend to relax the endeavors of peace-loving peoples and countries (that is to say, the Communists), which will determine this question." Chen Yi said he believed "prospects for the world are bright. Through the cooperation of peaceloving peoples and governments, world catastrophe can be avoided." Asked by Gelder what could be done to insure peace, Chen Yi said: "If Britain, France, the Soviet Union and China can combine their efforts, a war can be prevented.

This would be a practical measure. This is my personal view, which may not necessarily be well-founded at present, but which is a possibility. "The United States or Adenauer of West Germany may venture to launch a war but Britain, France, the Soviet Union and China come forward to save the situation." Chen Yi said not a single Chinese rifle, bullet or soldier has interfered in the six-year-old civil war in Laos--and almost professles disinterest in that strife-torn In.doChinese kingdom.

An undetermined number of persons, including some policemen, the rioters in the third can consecutive were injured by rocks thrown by night of violent demonstrations against the government of President Romulo Betancourt. Many demonstrations were overcome by tear gas hurled by the Guardsmen earlier in their first attempt to disperse the mob.

DRIVEN BACK The mobs were driven back by gunfire when they tried to seize police stations in the parishes of Santa Teresa, Santa Roselia and San Juan. The most violent attack occurred at the San Juan station in a thickly populated tenement district. The casualty count in rioting Friday and Saturday was two dead and more than 100 injured. About 30 diehard young demonstrators were still holed up in a high school in the heart of the capital. They had barricaded themselves in the building following Friday's riots.

The youths said they would leave the building only if Betancourt promised "a change in the government's international policy." The Betancourt government has been friendly to the United States and cool toward the Cuban government of Prime Minister Fidel Castro.

Pravda has, charged the Vatican with direct participation in subversive activities against the Congo Republic and worldwide support of "American imperialism." The Soviet Communist party newspaper said Sunday the Roman Catholic Church is playing the same role in Cuba, Argentina, Formosa, South Viet and Indonesia. It described the Vatican as the most bitter enemy of "the liberation movement of colonial "Ruling circles of the Catholic it said, "have always been malicious enemies of the peoples of Asia and Africa." TO CONSIDER (The attack was issued on the eve of a session of the U.

N. General Assembly in New York to Soviet Premier Khrushchev's demand that all colonial peoples be given complete independence forthwith. Khrushchev called for this action in a speech before the assembly Sept. 23. The Russians have been disappointed in hopes for support from the Asian-African group.

The group is offering a milder resolution of its own.) Pravda declared 40 per cent ot the income of the Vatican's Sacred Congregation for Propagation of the Faith has been spent in Africa "to stop development of the national liberation movement." "Wherever conspiracies against the cause of peace and freedom are being hatched," it said, "one finds the black frocks of Catholic fathers. Cautious and arrogant, sly and dexterous, they are trying to ooze through every crack. "This army in black priests' robes remained when the soldiers of foreign invaders had to leave some of these (African) countries. "More than 200 newspapers and magazines are published for 18 million African Catholics.
