BERLIN. Aug. 81 (AP).-
Many West Germans Cancelled
trips to Berlin today because of
threatening gestures by East
Germany's Communist regime,
The Red regime suddenly put
into effect at midnight a five
day ban on travel into East
Berlin by citizens of West Ger
many who do not have special
permits.
The Reds said their special
target is an association of
former war prisoners and
Germans expelled from Com
munist territories who opened
their annual convention in
West Berlin today.
The East Germans combined
their order on East Berlin with
vague threats to protect their
routes into Berlin against
revenge seekers" This prob
ably caused some motorists to
turn back. But traffic officials
said railway and highway SER
vice was normal with no delays
or incidents reported at frontier
control points.
U. S. Restates Stand
officials of the United States,
Britain and France regarded
the edict as illegal, but the
only countermeasure in pros
pect was a protest to the Rus
slams. They probably will
ignore it.
The United States State
Department issued this state
ment in Washington:
1T is not our practice to
dignity propaganda state
ments by the East German
regime. 1t is obvious. how
ever, that in this stance. as
in others in the past, the

East German soil"
In London, a Foreign Office
spokesman said the implica-
tion of the East Berlin order
was not clear but reaffirmeo
the position of the Western
powers that any attack or
West Berlin is an attack or
themselves.
Passengers Checked
East Berlin police stepped up
controls on the subway and
elevated railway to their part
of the city from West Berlin.
The elevated is administered
by the Communist authorities
all over the city. The subway
is operated jointly. Loud
speakers at stations on the
border warned all West Ger
mans they were not allowed
to continue without special
passes.
From time to time trains
were stopped and all passen-
gers ordered out for a check of
identity cards.
At the border between the
two parts of the city, West
German citizens were warned
by Western police of the new
East German regulation. Cars
with West German passengers
made U-turns at the crossing
points and drove back through
West Berlin.
Political experts of the United
States, British and French gar
risons in West Berlin met to
consult on the sudden Commu-
mist move.

Jordonions Blame UAR
For Premier's S S|oyinq

AMMAN. Jordan, Aug. 81
(AP).-United Nations Repre-
sentative Pier Spinelli arrived
today to confer with King
Hussein. who has charged that
responsible people" in the
United Arab Republic were
linked with the bomb assassi-
nation of Premier Hazza Majali.
Mr.. Spinelli. United Nations
chief in the Middle East, was
ordered by Secretary General
Dag Hammarskjold to rush
here from Geneva to deal with
the new crisis threatened in
the Middle East.
King Hussein many times has
complained that Preside n t
Nasser of the UAR is trying to
destroy his throne.
10 Killed, 80 Injured
At a news conference yester-
day he charged that people
in Cairo" were aware of the
bomb plot in which Mr.. Majali
and 10 other people were killed.
More than 80 persons were
injured.
/ The King added that the
assassins were linked up with
responsible people in tn e
United Arab Republic-mainly
in Syria"
Two employees of the Jordan
press bureau are reported to
have fled to Syria after plant
ing the two time bombs that
exploded in Majali's Office and
in the press bureau Monday.
The newspaper Al Jihad said
demolition experts examining
the ruins of the Offices found
other unexploded bombs in the
building.
/ The Amman radio broadcast
accused the UAR of intrigue
and treason for allegedly har-
boring the assassins.
ExtraditiOn Demanded
+ King Hussein demanded ex-
tradition of the two suspects
from the UAR.

mercenaries as there are," Mr..
Castro declared, they all have

Department of the United
States.
Repeats Defiance Of OAS
Mr.. Roa repeated the Castro
regimes defiance of the OAS
resolution, declaring I'VE are
and always will be friends of
our friends.
Therefore we re-established
diplomatic, cultural and COM
mercial relations with the
Soviet Union and Socialist
counties. We will continue
maintaining these relations in
defiance of the Monroe Doc
trine, the Organization of
American States, the United
States State Department and
North American monopolies
Of Mr.. Eisenhower and
Minister Herter."
The crowd jeered mention
OF the United States leaders
and cheered mention of the
Soviet Union.
The series of speeches began
late Monday night with Mr..
CaStro's appearance before a
meeting of teachers in which
he def1ed the OAS resolution
and the United States. The
flow of words let up early to-
day after President Osvaldo
Dorticos told rally of sugar
workers the San Jose meeting
was a shameful spectacle"
1T should not constitute
worry or Importance for any,
one" Mr.. Dorticos declared.
I'VE have already won the
future. All the peoples of
Latin America will be together

nize the OAS agreements. They

treason, and they will dictate

(In Washington, White
House Press Secretary James
C. Hagerty called the charge
of a United States plot to
assasSinate the Cuban for
eign Minister lone of the
most ridiculous charges that
I have heard emanating
from Cuba, and of course
completely untrue.")
The presidential palace said
Mr.. Roa and the rest of the
Cuban delegation to the Sar
Jose conference came home
ahead of schedule in a char
tered Costa Rican airliner be-
cause counter revolutionary
mercenaries" planned to inter-
cept the delegations special
plane and force it down.
The Costa Rican director OF
civil aviation said in San Jose
that he had held up the dele
cations own plane while his
Office checked the possibility it
might have been sabotaged.
The plane was cleared in the
late afternoon and few home
with Is Cuban newsmen who
had been covering the confer
ence.
Arrives Five Hours Early
Mr.. Roa arrived in Havana
five hours ahead of schedule.
This upset plans for an airport
rally to welcome him as a hero
for his walkout from the con-
ference of foreign ministers of
the Organization of American
States, which condemned So
Wet and Chinese Communist
intervention in the hemisphere
and rejected Cuban charges of
United States aggression
against the Castro regime.
Thousands Of Cubans gath

palace where Mr.. Castro ap-
peared Unexpectedly and made
his charges of a plot against
Mr.. Roa's aircraft. He said

the declaration was general in
character and did not consti-
tute a threat against Cuba.
Mexico also emphasized that
it sympathizes with Cuban as
pirations for economic i'm
Iprovement and social justice.
Both the Venezuelan and the
Peruvian foreign ministers OBJ
jected personally to the word
ing of the acknowledgements
though it waS-and would not
sign. Nevertheless, their gov
ernments instructed other rep
resentativeS to sign the docu-
ment.
Cuban Move Expected
1t is not clear what step will
be taken next. Presumably, the
move is up to Cuba and some
observers expect the Castro
government to return to the
United Nations with its COM
plant that the United States is
guilty of economic aggression.
The Cuban authorities previ-
ouSly had made this complaint
but the U. N. deferred action
pending the meeting of the
American ministers.
One strong impression gained
by these attending the San
Jose conference is that Red
China is engaged in fierce COM
petition with Soviet Russia to
gain dominance in Latin Amer
lea.
Both China and Russia want
to further the cause of inter-
national communism in the area,
it is said, but there is obvious
rivalry between those advocat-

the more cautious approach of

As for their efforts to better
race relations in Mississippi, OF
any where else, it is conceded by
all informed sources that none of
the individuals, organizations, or
newspapers, working out of Mem
phis in the name of better race re-
lations have done one thing to justi-
fly the contribution that they have
received from people of that state.

ISOLATION of Colored People, South,
Editor Greene says, shortly after
the Goodwill Meeting the organi-
cation rented office space from
him, and that about the same time
he endorsed note so the organi-
cation could buy used automo-
bile to help get about the state to
distribute the Negro Education
Booklet, that he never was able to
collect the full rent, and that after
almost three years Of gathering
contributions from all over the
state he was finally called upon to
pay the note which he endorsed to
help the organization get the auto
mobile.
Editor Greene tells also Of his
experience with Jessie Gillispie, B.
X. Pinkston, and E. L. Clements.
According to the Editor, Jessie
Gillispie came to his office in
Jackson, more than a year ago, told
him about the Mid-south Informer,
and if his desire to get out Of the
racket, and line up with something
that was doing something, and
which had future that could be
counted upon. After talking to
Gillispie, the editor said he gave
him a job as Advertising and Pro
motion Manager for the Jackson
Advocate, with Gillispie later
bringing in B. X. Pinkston and f
L. Clements as his assistants. The
editor said that after several other
incidents that gave him some in
sight as to their real character, he
discontinued their employment last
month, after he found that they
were still having checks made pay
able to the Mid-south Informer
while in the exclusive employment
of the Jackson Advocate, in addi.
tion to the fact that there had been
no publication Of the Mid-soutll
Inforner in more than two years.
In the case Of H. s. Barber, he
has not been too active in the state
for the past three or four years
especially after he obtained large

Mason, and their organization, the

ting contributions from many sour

tive in the state three of four years
ago, when efter his appearance in
Memphis on Radio Station WDIA's
goodwill program, Percy Greene,
Editor and Publisher Of the Jack
son Advocate, Mississippi's Lead
ing Negro weekly, which has not
missed an issue in twenty-years of
publication, joined with the Mutual
Association of Colorcd People,
South, in sponsoring widely pub
licized, and highly successful, good

slppi.
A tract designed by Editor
Greene containing the speeches and
remarks made during the Goodwill
Meeting in Jackson, IS we'll as
some editorials from yhe Jackson
Advocate, was published in the
name of the Mutual Association Of
Colored People, South, ard the

tributed.
Later, Editor Greene, designed a
booklet depicting the progress Of
Negro education n Mississippi
with the assistance Of Rev. o.
Mason. The publication of which
was paid for by contributions from
the State Of Mississippi, thro.. ph
Governor j. P. Coleman, and cor
tributions from other sources, With

five years ago 1t Is still being used

the desire, the intention, nor the
means to carry out the high sound
ing program which they present
when making their plea for assist

In the pursuit of their "race re-

spawned a number of spurious fly

prospective contributors which is
never see nor heard of by the mass

the purpose of softening up new
prospects.

said the conference theme had be-
come "calm down Lumumba."
The conference also made clear
that Africans support the United
Nations and Mr.. Hammarskjold de-
spite Mr.. Lumumba's bitter criti-
cisms. Mr.. Hammarskjold was re-
ported to have addressed notes to
some of the African powers repre-
sented asking them to urge pru-
dence.
The conference sent a letter to
DR.. Bunche, one delegation chief
said, expressing gratitude for his
work here and asking him to con-
vey the thanks Of the conference
to Mr.. Hammarskjold for the eff
forts of the United Nations. This
action appears almost to constitute
a censure of Mr.. Lumumba.
The delegates said that they in
tended to meet privately with Mr..
Lumumba to express their disap-
proval of Saturdays beatings Of
United States airmen and Canadian
technicians. Although Mr.. Lum-
umba called the conference, he alb
sented himself from it for his visit

Official opinion in London be-
lieves President Nkrumah Is on
guard and could hardly have re-
fused Soviet aid. The British are
themselves substantial investors In
Ghana's economic and industrial
future. But there are many calls
on British investment resources
from within the Commonwealth
And the capital needs Of a new,
independent country like Ghana
are pressing.
Earlier in August, agreement
was announced in Accra on an
$84 100000 loan to Ghana from
the World Bank, the United States
and Britain for the Volta River
project. 1t was stated in Accra
that with Ghana's contribution of
another s84,OO0,000, the financing
of the Volta Dam and power sta
ton was thus assured.
Ut Is understood that granting
Of the loan is conditional on
Ghana's reaching a satisfactory
agreement with Valco Volta
Aluminium Company, which is
predominantly United States.

Sixty years ago one can imagine
the London Of Rudyard Kipling
exploding with Indignation at the
idea of such Russian intrusion into
the Empire.
The Empire, however, has
changed into q far more loosely
knit association Of independent
members. And it is significant
with what confidence Common
wealth quarters in London express
the opinion that Ghana's President
Kwame Nkrumah knows what he
is doing in his new association
with the Soviets.
This does not mean that there
is any positive welcome in London

Under the Soviet hana trade
agreement the two countries will
give each other most-favored-
nation treatment in matters Of
commerce and shipping.
Among the goods which the So
Wet Union is to send to Ghana are
machinery and equipment, rolled

building materials. Among items
which Ghana will send to the So

Ghana and in Africa generally are
fully realized.
But some such development Of
Soviet aid is seen as inevitable.
After all, Britain signed a pact
for increased trade and closer cul-
tural relations with the Soviet
Union as a result Of Prime Min
lister Harold Macmillan's visit to
Moscow in February, 1859.
Some Of the gilt was knocked
off this move for closer relations
by the summit failure and the new
turn in Soviet Premier Nikita s
Khrushchev's relations with the
West. But British policy remains
basically one Of seeking better co.
existence.
Ghana, as a fully independent
member Of the Commonwealth,
has just as much right as Britain
to try for closer and friendlier
relations with Moscow.
Furthermore, there has been talk
within the Commonwealth of the
possibility Of developing some
East-West cooperation in aiding
underdeveloped countries, prefer
ably through the agency Of the
United Nations.
But the main reason London Is
not unduly concerned at the new
Ghana-Soviet pact is the feeling
that President Nkrumah is very
conscious Of the dangers of too
much Soviet influence and very
conscious of how serious it will be
for his own country and for At

allowed to develop within that con-
