The railroad spokesman said
arrival times at Union Station
Of other trains from the West
were delayed about IS minutes.
Cause Is Sought
Cause Of the two derailments
could not be determined imme-
diately and an investigation
was launched by railroad ON
cials. the spokesman said.
There was speculation that the
cold weather may have had
something to do with 1t. Mont
gomery Coutny police reported
they thought q burned-out axle
in the middle of the first train
caused that derailment.
Just after the first accident,
relief trains were rushed to the
BoydS area from Brunswick
and Baltimore to clear and
repair the tracks. Railroad
officials said it probably would
be all day before the tracks
would be reopened.
The railroad announced after
the derailments that Its two
afternoon commuter trains
from Washington to suburban
Maryland pointS-at 1850 and
sos p.m.-wouId leave as
scheduled but would go only
as far as Rockville. Patrons
going beyond that point were
to be taken from there by spe-
cial bus. The trains normally
run to Brunswick.
The daily racing train nor
mally carries about 900 persons
and usually stops at Laurel,
Hyattsville, Silver Spring and
Rockville as well as Washing
ton after starting in Baltimore.
Because this was disrupted,
the race course officials said
Its contract bus service from

Dec. 20 (AP).-A bullet shat

Hotel dining room last night,
and women delegates from IS
countries hit the floor.
Still nervous from their Or
deal during the abortive re-
bellion last week against En-
peror Halle Selassie's rule, the
women crawled down the stairs
to the basement and cowed
there until the shooting sub
sided . few minutes later.
Among them were two Amer

Minneapolis, the Eisenhower
administrations chief woman
delegate to the United Nations,
and Mrs. Forrest Crawford,
United States cultural attache

All . Mistake
Army headquarters told q

shooting to stop" Z
This is nothing to what we
went through last week." said
Mrs. Crawford, her hand shaIE
ing as she lifted a glass Of,
water.
The week-long conference on
participation Of women in
public life ends today, and the
women are glad to be alive after
their participation in Ethiopian

caught in the crossfire Of the
rebellion last week, and for two
days and nights the women
stayed in the basement without
water or electricity.
Heavy Firing Erupts

capital last week end. But last

There were rumors that the
firing was connected with the
pursuit Of Gen. Mengistu Neway
and his brother, the chief rebel
leaders still at large. But an
army spokesman insisted the
shooting was Q mistake ap-
parently due to nervous, quick
triggered troops on the lookout
for rebel remnants.

King Soud Takes Bock
Brothers Premier Job

CAIRO. Dec. % (AP)-King
Saud Of Saudi Arabia has re-
lieved his brother, Crown
Prince Faisal, as Premier and
taken back the fun powers Of
government he gave him more
than two years ago.
Observers familiar with af-
fairs in Saudi Arabia said the
56-year-old, hawk-nosed Faisal
apparently antagoniZed too
many people, especially the
scores Of free-spending, money :
loving princes whose subsidies
and salaries were cut In Faisal,s
regime Of austerity.
FaiSal also was said to have
disappointed some supporters
who expected him to carry out
an energetic program Of mod.
ernization Of the political sys-
TEN.
Ministers Relieved
Mecca radio yesterday broad
cast two DEGREES by the 5a-
year-old King. The first said
"an ministers are regarded as
having resigned following the
resignation Of the Premier"
The second said Saud with
the aid Of the Most High God"
had taken over all Faisal's jobs
himself.
Besides being Premier, Faisal
was foreign, defense and
finance minister. The radio
gave no reason for the Kings
action.
Saud handed over the full
powers Of government to Faisal
in March, 1858, when the
finances Of the spraying des-
ert kingdom were reported In
q bad state despite rich oil roy
|alties Of about $500 million q
year. The cause was reported
to be the Jumping Of the royal
and state budgets into one fund
from which Saud drew lavish
sums for loyal sheiks to spend
on limousines. palaces and lux
uries.
Tightened Purse Strings
Faisal was reported deter
mined to tighten the purse
strings In order to have more
to spend for such things as hos
lpitals and schools.
At the time Saud and Presl.
dent Canal Abdel Nasser Of
the United Arab Republic were
feuding over Nasser charges
that 6aud plotted to kill him in
order to break up the union Of
Egypt and Syria.
The Cairo press speculated
Evening star., 1960-12-22

that Faisais regime would
patch the feud and might ever
agree to q federation with the
UAR. Faisal later held what
he called "brotherly talks" witt
Mr.. NasSer but the federation
did not materialize..
Faisal was reported to have
criticized Saud's pro-Americar
tendencies. When he became
ipremier, he proclaimed Q policy
OF true Arab Ilationalism" and
declared himself aloof from
both Eastern and Western
camps.
There was no indication oi
violence In the power shift.
Faisal never attempted tc
supplant Seud as King. Old
King 1bn Saud. before he died
In 1853. designated Saud as hil
heir and made the two brother
swear on the Koran to support
one another.
New Cabinet Formed )
Saud and Faisal are the two
eldest Of Ibn Saud's SO sons
There are more than 800 princes
in the royal family. Faisal'a
other brothers designated him
as crown prince, bypassina
Saud's sons.
King Saud has formed q new
10-man cabinet.
UAR press reports said
the King first tried to resume
full power last summer but
that most Of the royal princes
backed Faisal ct that time.
Late in the summer the King
and his brother failed to agree
on the appointment Of an act
ing Premier when Faisal-who
suffers from ulcers-wanted to
60 to Europe for medical treat
ment, the press reports said.
Faisal Cancelled the trip and
brought several European
doctors to Saudi Arabia.
The Damascus newspaper Al
Ayyam said Faisal was expected
to leave for Europe for treat
ment In o few days.
Saud, according to Damascus
papers. accused his brother Of
crtppling the Saudi economy
by his restrictions, Of trying to
rally groups Of officers against
the King. and Of trying to cut
the royal powers.
Faisal repeatedly claimed he
wanted only to establish a con-
stitutionaI regime. He was said
to have argued that his
economic restrictions were
necessary to protect the Saudi
currency.

NEW YORK. Jan. 29.-An-

debut on the CHS network last
