Oxford Student
Editors Warned

OXFORD. England, Mar. 10
@.-Two 21-year-old oxford
University student editors say
they were threatened with po-
lice action for publishing an
article charging the West pro-
vokes incidents with Russia to
get military intelligence infor-
nation.
There was no immediate
police comment.
The article in the monthly
student magazine Isis said

Iraq to the Baltic record every
thing sent by radio from Soviet
ships, tanks. airplanes, troops
and control stations"
1T is believed. perhaps
rightly" it continued, that
this fragrant breach of the
Geneva Convention can provide
accurate estimates of the size
and type of Russian ornaments
and troops and the nature of
their tactical methods.
Since the Russians do not
always provide the required
messages. They are sometimes
provoked. A plane loses its
way while behind a frontier.
Tape recorders excitedly read
the irritated exchanges of Rus
sian pilots and when the latter
sometimes force an airplane to
land, an international incident
is created and reported in the
usual fashion.
In a moment of crisis, ire
Sponsibility of this kind could
well brighten the Russians into
war;" the article declared.
Assistant Editor Paul
Thompson told reporters two
plainclothes men in overcoats

him and another assistant edi-
tor, William Miller, with being
charged under the Official Sc
cretS Act.
"They asked me who wrote
the article, but I didn't tell
them" Mr.. Thompson said. 1T
was written from the personal
experiences of some one who
was in the forces"
