Japan Cancels
Visit by Dutch

TOKYO, Sept. 8 (AP).-
Under strong pressure from In
donesia and from leftiSts at
home, the Japanese govern
ment today called of another
scheduled visit by a foreigner.
This time it was the Neither
lands aircraft carrier Karel
0oorman.
Foreign Minister Zentaro
Kosaka called in the Dutch
Ambassador and asked him to
postpone the carriers visit to
Yokohama September 8-12
until "a suitable opportunity. "
Japan had invited the Dutch
20 send the carrier in connec-
ton with the 350th anniver-
sary of Dutch-Japanese rela-
tions. Indonesia, for much of
IFS history a Dutch colony, has
now broken of relations with
the Netherlands and threatened
economic reprisals against ia
pan if the carrier visit was car
ried out. a. b.
The Japanese Socialist Party
called the proposed visit "ut-
terly intolerable.1 ana Zengas
kuren. the Comm unist-led stu-
dent federation, threatened
demonstrations.
It was Socialist and Zenga-
kuren opposition which led to
anti-American demonstrations
and cancellations of President
Eisenhower's visit to Japan last

Mr.. Quill told the strikers
the union is no closer to q

Monday. He quipped:
I'VE did come a little closer
on Thursday. We went into q

In reference to the kilograms
from the Governors and

"Up until we went on strike
we didn't receive any letters

we were before a neutral OBJ

not even send a Christmas

And when we@wents before

Manslaughter
Charge Against
Dad In Death

First degree manslaughtel
charges were brought against
Robert L. Koslasky, 27, in the
death of his 29-day old son
Koslasky waived preliminary
hearing and is awaiting a granc
jury investigation. At this wri.
ting he was being held in the
county jail.
Mr.. Koslasky and his wife
Marlene, %, had lived at 1862
Colt rd., address for about a
week prior to the baby's death.
They formerly lived at East
141st st. and Colt in Cleveland.
Police Capt. Patrick O'Malley
said the father admitted being
angry because the baby had
been crying early Sunday. Mr.,
Koslasky admitted rising about
2 am. because the baby was
crying. Koslasky's first state
ment on his sons fatal injury
and that of his wife conflicted.
Koslasky told detectives he
was holding his son when he
slipped from his grip and the
baby's head hit the bed head
board. Earlier his wife had told
police that Koslasky had dashed
the child's head against the
headboard. Koslasky denied this
and asked for a lie detector test.
After the test he confessed to
the crime.
After the 2 am. rising epi-
sode, the baby was quiet. His
mother became concerned inI
the morning when the child
would not eat and started to
turn blue. She called East Cleve-
land police who took the baby
to Huron road where he was
pronounced dead.
There were no outward in
juries on the baby. 1t was from
the Coroner's office that police
learned OF brain damage and re-
turned to question the parents.

The Tribes general manager

point during an air-cleanine
session which followed the
bench chiefs acceptance of a

"I had no idea my comments

under the impression he was
laughing them off as things Ia
say in the disappointment OF
the moment when a play went
sour.
"When he told me he'd sit in
the dugout, resenting what he
thought I'd be thinking about
some back-firing strategy, ]
said I'd make every effort to
correct the situation"
Lane said that as a fan he
likes to give vent to his feelings
and his feelings may change
from batter to batter and in
ming to inning.
Everybody know how great
w l admire Minnie Minoso,"
he explained, "but l used to sit
in the press box in Chicago
