upon in the working sessions is
described as a balanced" ar
ticle taking into account the in
terests of three categories of
powers: claimants, non-claim-
ants, and "non-recognizing."
Claimants are the seven
countries which have staked
out quadrants of Antarctica as
their own. They are France,
Britain, Australia, New Zeal
and, Argentina, Chile, and Nor
way.
Non-claimants are the United
States, the Soviet Union, South
Africa, Belgium and Japan. The
United States explorers have
seen by far the greatest amount
of Antarctic territory, but all
the non-claimants have par
ticipated in explorations there.
The third category of mon
recognizing" powers cuts across
the other two groups. Britain,
Chile and Argentina, for in
stance, are all claimants and
at the same time non-recogniz-
ing powers, since each does not
recognize the claims of the
other two.
U. S., Soviet Status
The principal non-recogniz-
ing powers-the United States
and the Soviet Union-have ex-
plored more extensively than
most claimants but claim no
specific territory.
France is also a non-recog-
power, however, and her
chief delegate has raised legal
argument over providing ade-
quate protection for the nom
recognizing powers.
The conference so far has
agreed that the scientific CO.
operation that began more than
two years ago should be con-
tinued.
A communique last night
mentioned this as the second
agreement reached since the
conference opened October is.
The overall objective is to
produce a treaty which would
commit all participating coun-
tries to use the frozen waste
land around the South Pole
for peaceful and scientific pur-
poses and to avoid friction
caused by pressing rival ter
ritorial claims.
Last Tuesday the conference
announced general agreement
had been reached that Antarc-
tica should be used only for
peaceful purposes and all mill
tary activity there should be
prohibited.

Governor Believed Lying Low Until 80,
Avoiding Competition With Summit

Teller among Republicans.
They have never been able
to work up any warmth for
the Vice President.
Gov. Rockefeller's easy in
timacy with union leaders
is a factor which causes the
remnants of the old Taft
wing to vince and turn apo
plectic. This in turn brings
Mr.. Nixon to the brink of
nail biting. If the bitter-end-
ers in the party make too
public a demonstration for
him they will hurt.
The fact that Gov. Rookie
Teller entertained union mem
bers at the official mansion,
while the steel strike was
working toward its unhappy

United States and its Far
Eastern allies. The military
leaders in Peiping remember
only too well the drubbing
they received from the Chi
nese Nationalist after 1949
without involvement Of
American forces-every time
they tried to invade the Ma
tionaliSt-held territories.
In Korea, the Chinese
North Korean armies would
have been disastrously de-
feated had it not been for the
cease-fire which was followed
by the present formal inter-
minable armistice. And while
there is no doubt that the
Chinese Communist ground
and air forces are better
equipped by the Russians
than they were several years
ago, it is equally true that
the Nationalist and the
ROKs have a formidable
force which, backed by the
United States air forces in
the area and the available
guided missiles, would render
a Communist aggression a
sorry affair for the Commu-
niStS.
All the sabre rafting which
is being reported from Korea
and Southern China is, in the
opinion of diplomatic and
military experts, nothing
more than another attempt
to ackm all the United
States into diplomatic recog-
milton Of Red China. Peace
cannot be divided. There is
little point OF having peace in
Europe, for instance, while
there is a risk of war in Asia.
Mr.. Khrushchev's commu-
nication to President EiSen-
hover warning against the
United States living up to its
treaty obligations in the
event the Chinese Commu-
nists try to take Formosa by

diplomatic trick. The Red
boss tells us in effect that
while things seem to be going
smoothly between the USSR
and the West there is a real
danger that the apple cart
might be upset by our insist
ence on continuing to sup
port the Free Chinese and
Korean Republics.

There has been, since the
steel strike began. a slow i'm

Senator Kennedy's prospects
for nomination. He was well
received at Atlantic City's
labor convention. He had
high public praise for Walter
Reuther and George Meany
as statesmen of labor. 1t was
suggested Mr.. Reuther would
be an able campaigner if he
ever ran for the presidency.
Labor credited Senator Ken
nedy with removing some of
the more obnoxious features
of the Land2um bill.
Senator Kennedy has
moved boldly for labor's sup
port. This is the more neces-
sary to him since his chances
for Southern delegates have
been largely dissipated. The
Gripping steel strike means
labor legislation will be one
of the major issues of the

There was no report on

Reds Blame India
Red China considers the
eastern part of the province
as part of 10000 square miles
of Indian-controlled territory
that should be under Peiping.
In addition to blaming India
for Wednesdays attack, Red
China also charged that Indian
troops invaded Chinese terri
tory in the northwestern part
OF the Tibet region. A Peiping
broadcast said Chinese soldiers
engaged the Indians and there
were casualties on both sides.
No figures were given.
Wednesdays flare-up was the
most violent in a series of

Reach Accord

NEW DELHI, India, Oct. "a
(AP) India and Pakistan said
today they have settled most of
their border disputes and have
agreed on procedures to settle
those remaining.
The two countries issued a
joint communique at the end of
week-long, ministerial level
talks. They had long been es-
tranged over ill-defined sections
OF their frontiers.
An Indian spokesman said
both countries now look for
ward to a period of peaceful
relations along the eastern bor-
der-Scene of sporadic terri
torial disputes for more than a
decade.
The Pakistanis agreed to va
cate Tukergram, a tiny but
strategic township adjoining
midas Assam state.
India agreed to Pakistan's
claim for part of the rich
Patharia forest reserve.
All these concessions involved
less than so square miles of
territory along the vague bor-
der between India and East
Pakistan. But all are areas
of high strategic value and
ownership has been bitterly
disputed in the past.
The communique laid down
detailed ground rules for avoid
ing local disputes and for
settling them if they arise.
While some issues remained
unresolved, the communique
said both sides agreed these
should be settled by peaceful
negotiationS-and that if these
fail disputes should be referred
to an impartial tribunal.

Mao More Bitter at U. S.
When Mr.. KhruShchev fol-
lowed his American tour with
a trip to Peiping, many hoped
anxiously that Red Chinese
Leader Mao Tze-tung would
support him with words and
deeds.
Instead the Chinese attacked
the United States with new
vehemence.
Then this week Red Chinese
guards fought a bloody fight
with Indian patrols in the dis
puted border area between the
two countries. This occurred
as Peiping continued it's old
song that it wished to solve the
dispute by peaceful negotia-
tions.
Red China has reacted with
anger at being put on trial.
