Navy Takes
Close Look
AT 5 Vessels
Rockets Sighted
On 3, Russians
Are Cooperating
By the Associated Press

United States Navy warships
have intercepted five Russian
vessels outbound from Cuba
and seen missiles and missile
equipment on the decks of at
least three of them, the De-
fense Department announced
today.
Assistant Secretary of De-
tense Arthur Sylvester said

Points. Poee AS
four of the ships were inter-
cepted this morning. The fifth
was contacted yesterday. No
missile components were re-
ported aboard it.
Mr.. Sylvester said the United
States Navy craft pulled close
alongside the Russian ships
Dvinogorsk, Volgoles, and La
binsk, and that the Russian
crewmen pulled back heavy
canvas covering what appeared
to be missiles in skin-tight cas-
ings designed to protect them
from the sea and weather.
The other Russian ships
were the Alapayevsk, sighted
yesterday, and the Komsomol.
Photos Studied
Photographs were taken and
are being returned here for
analysis by experts who first
detected the missiles and their
bases in Cuba from examina-
ton of reconnaissance photo
graphs taken by United States
aircraft.
THE responsible people OF
this Government are satisfied
that what is being reported are
the missiles" Mr.. Sylvester
said. but the final determine
tion will await analysis of the
photographs which are being
returned"
Mr.. Sylvester related that the

yesterday and reported seeing
on the deck about $50 to 200
men, described as young and
some without shirts on, appar-
emily looking happy to be going
home.
They presumably were some
of the Russians who had been
sent into Cuba to help build
missile bases and instruct the
Cubans in use of the war gear
given them by the Soviet Union.
No Missiles Seen
The Holder reported seeing
no missiles on the Alapayevsk,
but told of seeing dump trucks,
fuel trucks. earth movers and
various other pieces of gear
which likely were used in base
construction.
Mr.. Sylvester said the United
States cruiser Norfolk went
alongside the Komsomol about
IL am. but that he had no
report on its findings.

hDered By Ambassador Adlni
E. Stevenson In the United
Nations Assembly today:
I stand here for the second
time in little more than a year
sad in heart and spirit. The
United States, the United Ma
tions-the world-has lost one
of its great citizens. Mrs. Flea
nor Roosevelt is dead; a cher
ished friend of all mankind is
gone.
Yesterday I said I had lost
more than a friend. had lost
an inspiration. She would
rather light candles than curse
the darkness, and her glow had
warmed the world.
My country mourns her, and
I know that all in this assembly
mourn with us. But even as
we do, the sadness we share is
enlivened by the faith in her
fellow man and his future
which filled the heart of this
strong and gentle woman.
Impaired Her Faith
She impaired this faith, not
only to those who shared the
privilege of knowing her and
of working by her side, but to
countless men, women and chill
dren in every part of the world
who loved her even as she loved
them. For she embodies the
vision and the will to achieve
a world in which all men car
walk in peace and dignity. And
to this goal--a better life-she
dedicated her tireless energy
the strange strength of her ex'
traordinary personality.

A canvass of election tally
sheets shows that a proposal
to draft a home-rule charter
for Prince Georges County
failed in Tuesdays election by
319 votes.
The only hope charter back

machines tomorrow.
After Tuesdays balloting,
the figures showed charter lost
by II votes. Then yesterday the
absentee ballots were counted
and this gave charter an 81
vote winning margin. But when
the tally sheets were canvasSed
last night, the winning margin
was erased because of errors
in tabulating results on elec-

of them able to form foreign policy
that does not conform to the wishes
of the board of Standard Oil.
The domestic oil policy is that the
government is allowed to do minor
clerical jobs for the industry but
must never get the idea that it has
any worthwhile function except to
keep the consumers in line.
Big money is plowed into the poll
tical campaigns to assure oils domi-
nation of the political world. This
is done to keep alive the famous de-
pletion subsidy of 27.5 per cent. The
fast tax write-offs and the undis-
closed price-fixing ratios allow the
industry to milk the peoples of the
world and their governments.
Oil profits are used to keep alive
the slave system in Arabia and to
promote the right wing screwballs
here in the United States.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
By GRETCHEN G. BILLINGS

Is Montana about to begin purge
of our University System?
This is the question that is being
asked following the January meeting
of the Board of Education this week
in Helena, after closed door session
Monday. Conjecture and rumor are
the unfortunate results of all secret
meetings
There seems to be little question
that Governor Nutter is hell bent
on getting rid of DR.. Renne, either be-
cause of personal vindictiveness or
because of pressure from the radical
right and especially one powerful
corporate interest or all three, and
together these forces spell dynamite.
While there has been considerable
talk about "Renne's feud" with the
Governor, DIR. Renne has done moth
ing that he hasn't been doing for
years promoting higher education
in Montana. If this be politics" then
by the same token the silence of the
presidents at the other units is also
politics.

movement for self-government has
run it's course the u. N. could have
a membership that would be as high
as 125 members. So far the United
States has been able to get two
thirds vote over the objections of
the Soviet Union.
About moving the United Nations
to some other country: 1t would cost
100 million dollars to duplicate the
plant someplace else and those who
want to move it won't pay that much
money. The communications system
necessary to run the u. N. could only
be provided by seven cities in the
world. Only if our racial conduct
were to be so bad that dark nations
might want to move it some place
else is it likely to be done.
IF the u. N. ever moves out of
6 the United States it will be because
we do not live up to the human
rights section of the charter.
