as temperature inversion. Tenn
perature inversion in the at-
mosphere can cause an image to
be reflected at a point far re-
moved from its actual position.
Capt. James Howard. pilot Of
a British Overseas Always Corp.
airliner said the objects vanished
when an American Air Force
fighter plane came up to investi-
gate. Some of the passengers
also reported seeing the objects
10000 feet over the Atlantic.
Capt. Howard said the objects
reminded him of flax bursts and
that they moved along a track
roughly parallel with his plane
and kept station with it. The
large object changed shape, he
continued.
1T was always about 30 de-
grees to port" he reported. THE
distance from us appeared not
less than five miles. possibly
very much more.
"All who watched the objects
are sure that the large one. at
any rate. was no sort of winged
aircraft. The small ones were
just dots. They left no vapor
trails. no lights were seen, just

Russia Again Charges
U.S. WasResponsib|e
For Selling Tanker
By The Assoeio,ed Press

IL. =
- MOSCOW, July 3.-The Soviet
Union has renewed its accusation
Of June "a that American forces
were responsible for seizure of
the Russian tanker Tuapse near
Formosa.
70, The Russians in a two-page
note yesterday rejected the
American disclaimer of respon-
'sibility.
(The Chinese Nationalist
government on Formosa has
announced that the Soviet
tanker Tuapse was stopped by
Chinese Nationalist warships
and taken to Formosa.)
The communication made only
indirect reference to the Chinese
Nationalist admission that 1t
was they who seized the interned
vessel.
1t said:
''It is obvious to all that the
seizure of the Soviet tanker
Toapse in waters controlled by
the fleet of the United States
and patroled by military aircraft
Of the United States could be
carried out only by military
forces of the United States,
whatever flag they may have
flown"
The note repeated demands
first made on June "a and re-
buffed by the United States that
the United States Government
should punish those responsible
for the seizure and release the
tanker and its cargo and crew

with being one of the best pick
pockets known to police here.
Sergt. Roche said Wilson saw
them, dropped something on the

The dropped item, Sergt. Roche
said. turned out to be $500 in
signed, negotiable travellers

in with them. Wilson denied
dropping it. the detective added
Terminal police searched the
outbound buses and found Mer-
