Although Mr.. johnson said
hopes for passage this year are

urged "a last-ditch, all-out eff
fort to persuade the members
of Congress to act on this bill
before they go home"
Unfortunately" Mr.. Weaver
said in his prepared speech,
I'VE are now involved in situa-

transportation rival rather than
complement each other, and
some are being favored to the
exclusion of others"
The mass transportation bill
provides both grants and loans,
subject to strict planning re-
quirements, he said.
If this mass transportation
bill is passed, communities will
have an opportunity, through
the planning process, to weigh
the relative advantages of each
mode of transportation. And
public agencies can then chan
mel the resources available
through this program to de-
velop the balanced system each
community DESIRES" he said.

SARK, Channel Islands, Oct.
/ (AP).-Sark's parliament has
decided the island needs a new
ambulance.
But when the modern vehicle
arrives from the neighboring
island of Guernsey this week
its engine and front wheels

What's left will be hitched

Then the ambulance will be

HOLLANDIA, New Guinea,
IOct. l (AP)-Three centuries
of Dutch colonial rule in Asia
ended today with the raising
of the United Nations flag over
West New Guinea in a prelude
to Indonesian takeover of the
rugged jungle territory May l.
The U. N. flag was hoisted
alongside the Dutch flag over
the former Dutch Governors
palace under an agreement pro-
viding for U. N. administration
Iof the territory for the next
seven month. The U. NJ. with
the backing of a 1,000-man
Pakistan security force, will try
to maintain order among the
Papuan inhabitants until Indo-
nesia moves in.
The two-stage transfer, de-
vised by United States diplomat
Ellsworth Bunker, was agreed
on by Indonesia and the
Netherlands after Indonesis
threatened to take the territory
by force. The Dutch had held
on to West New Guinea in 1949
when Indonesia won sover-
eighty over the rest of the pre-
war Dutch East Indies.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Oct.
/ (AP).-Traffic "czars" with
full, unalterable authority ap-
pear to be the only answers
to city traffic congestion, the
outgoing president of the Amer
ican Transit Association said
today.
Frederick J. Johnson, who
also is a top executive in three
city transit companies. said this
seems to be the only way to
mount an all-out attack on
the problem.
1--WE can't do the job with
piecemeal parking restrictions,
a piecemeal one-way street
system, an attempt to move
traffic we'll within one area
of a community only to let
it back up in adjacent areas, T"
he said in a speech prepared
for the opening session of the
associations 81st annual meet
ing.
Mr.. johnson said the sugges-
ton might not be we'll received
in many cities.
"The Only Way"
"But I have a hunch that
many mayors and city council
men would go for the idea be-
cause they realize this is the
only way to accomplish the
task and it would get political
pressure off their backs at the
same time" he said.
This pressure, Mr.. johnson
said, usually comes from mer-
chants or others who oppose
blanket restrictions, especially
on parking on commercial
streets.
Mr.. johnson emphasized that

U. N. Replaces Dutch
In West New Guinea

The Dutch took over West
New Guinea by proclamation
134 years ago, but did not
make serious efforts to develop
the territory or educate the
natives until about 10 years
ago. Australia administers the
eastern half of New Guinea.
The main worry for the 70O,-
900 Papuans now is that Dutch
withdrawal has cost them any
hope of eventual freedom. AS
a Papuan leader put it: 1--WE
may say we want a plebiscite
to achieve self determination
next year instead of 1869, but
who will support us? They did
not even consult us about the
transfer of West New Guinea
to Indonesia.
Most Dutch policemen and
civil servants have gone home
or are on their way and there
are already signs of a break
down in administrative services
and law and order. There have
been reports of revived head
hunting among some tribes
men.
Development Promised
President Sukarno has said
he will send thousands of Indo-
neSians into West New Guinea
to develop the area under a
crash program, but Indone-
slams own tagging economy
and development makes this
unlikely. West New Guinea is
161 900 square miles, most of
| it dense jungle swamps and
mountains, with most of the
population still in the stone
age. The Dutch have been
spending $35 million a year to
administer and develop it and
getting a return of less than IS
million year.
Withdrawal from the terri
tory was a loss Of prestige for
the Dutch, but settlement Of
the long dispute may improve
relations with Indonesia and
resumption of trade ties. Be-
cause of the dispute, Mr..
Sukarno seized SIS billion
worth of Dutch property in
Indonesia in 1857 and broke
off diplomatic relations in 1860,

but not a single Soviet Off

Evidence of continuing ten
sion in Peiping's relations with

missions of shortcomings and

The Peoples Daily, official
organ of the party, said "in
the past year, the class strug-
gle our people experienced at
home and internationally has
been extremely complicated
and acute"
Dig at Soviet Policy
The theological dispute di-
viding Red China and Soviet
Russia was aggravated last
week by the visit of Soviet
President Leonid Brezhnev to
Yugoslavia, a constant target
of Chinese Communist criti-
cism.

speech last night Jumped

parently meaning Yugoslav
President Tito and perhaps
Soviet Premier Khrushchev-
together with the United States
| imperialistS and reactionaries
who he said were trying to iso-
late Red China and force her
to change her policies. Mr..
Chou said such a campaign
would never succeed.
The attack continued today
in the keynote speech of Vice
Premier Foreign Minister Chen
vi in Peiping's Red Square. He
called for unity in a struggle
against United States imperi-
alist policies of aggression and
war" an apparent dig at what
Peipina considers a soft Soviet
policy of peaceful coexistence
with the West.
Mr.. Khrushchev sent the
usual telegram of congratula-
tions, but he and other ranking
Soviet leaders boycotted an
October l rally in Moscow. The
highest official present was the
Soviet minister of higher and
specialized secondary educa-
tion, G. M. Pushkin.
National Disaster Cited
On domestic matters Mr.
Chou told a Peiping reception
last night, "The serious natural
disaster for the three consecu-
tive years from 1853 to 1861
and the shortcomings and mis-
takes in our work have indeed
caused us difficulties"
But he added that the ma
tion's economy has improved
since 1860 and contrary to
the expectations of the i'm
perialists =. the Chinese people
have become not weaker but
stronger"
The theme of economic re-
covery was also sounded by
Mr.. Chen today, but he added
I'VE are still confronted with
many difficulties. 1t would not
be right to fail to see them" P"
The speech made 1t clear that
China, beset by food shorages,
is still in the grip of hard
times. Mr.. Chen credited rural
communes, which made a nose
dive shortly after they were in
augurated by MIR. Mao in 1858,
with having contributed largely
to the small advances made.

did not use the word purge,

President Kennedy and Lord

stand firm in Berlin.
Mr.. Kennedy and Lord Home

On a potential point of diS-
ference, the use of British and
other free world vessels to carry
shipments to Cuba, the joint
statement was blank. John
Russell, spokesman for the
British Foreign Ministry, said
cit stands to reason that that
subject did come up" but de-
clined to disclose what was
said on the subject.

"The conversations whic h
Lord Home and Mr.. Rusk hao

There was complete agree

"They agreed on the urgent
need for a settlement of the

"They agreed on the serious

and means of containing fur
