The United States accused
Russia today of painting 9
completely distorted picture Of
the situation in Berlin" with
its latest charges against the
Western powers.
A note from Moscow yester-
day blaming the United States.
Britain and France for violence
along the Communist wall di-
viding Berlin was denounced
by the State Department as an
effort to divert world opinion
from Russia's "own failure" in
Berlin.
The State Department an
nounced that the United States
is studying the note and ar
ranging consultation about it
with Western allies. The con-
sultation will be started in a
meeting of Western embassy
representatives and State De-
partment officials late today

Red Note Is Bitter
The new Soviet note, received
here late yesterday, was
regarded by officials as un-
usually bitter in tone. 1t ac-
cused the Western powers of
hypocrisy" in proposing East
West talks on reduction of ten
sions in Berlin. 1t said condi-
tions in West Germany today
are comparable to those Of the
Hitler era. 1t blamed the West
tern authorities for all sorts of
troubles along the Communist
wall.
United States authorities said
it may foreshadow new Soviet
moves on the Berlin issue.

Killer Sought
In HOIdup Of
Supern1arket
Arlington Checker
Is Slain While
Buttline Bundit

Three red buttons and four
slugs from a .38-caliber pistol
were the only tangible clues
police had today in their search
for the mean, rough-looking
bum" who shot and killed a
Safeway checker in Arlington
last night.
The victim of the shooting
was Troy E. Amanns, IS, who
was killed a short time before
he was expected home to help
celebrate the 18th birthday of
his youngest son, Harold.
The shooting occurred about
1855 pm. when the man came
to the checkout stand of the
Safeway Store at BOIL Wilson
boulevard, in the Clarendon
section of Arlington.
Within minutes a widespread
search through the Washington
area was begun by police. But
they failed to find the killer or
the green 1855 Plymouth with
a white fender that was be-
lieved to be the getaway Ca.
Two witnesses
There were believed to have
been only two witnesses to the
shooting: The store manager,
John T. O'Roark. 43. Of 919
South Nineteenth street, Ar
lington, and a messenger, Bur-
ton Davis, "a, OF 1415 North
Hudson street, Arlington.
MIR. O'Roark gave this ac-
count of what happened:
"It was about 5 minutes to
9 and we were getting ready
to close. I was in the back
and I heard Troy say, Man,
I can't do that
81 looked up then and saw
them start fighting. grabbing
at each others shirts and SHOW
ing. / thought that the man
had asked for a handout or
something like that"
He looked like a bum, a
tramp. He was shabbily dressed.
Just a mean. rough-looking
man.
Hears Four Shots
"I started up front to break
1t up. Then I heard these four
shots but I thought they we're
from a cap pistol. Troy was
falling to the floor. The man
was bigger than Troy and I
figured he had just knocked
him down so I ran after the
man as he went out the door.

In New Orleans, some white
parents have withdrawn theiI
children from parochial schools
The number has not been dis

spoee Role compoisn for Military
AssoiIed. Pose A-3
well L. Gilpatric last night in
words repeatedly written by
members Of the White House
staff.
Mr.. Gilpatric told an in
dustry-university audience in
South Bend, Ind, that I'VE
have no program to place any
weapons Of mass destruction
into orbit.
"An arms race in space will
not contribute to our security. /"
the Pentagon's second in COM
mand said. He added:
"I can think of no greater
stimulus for a Soviet thermo-
nuclear arms effort in space
than a United States commit
ment to such a program. This
we will not do"
Mr.. Gilpatric declared there
is no doubt that either the
United States or Russia could
send hydrogen weapons into
orbit "'but such an action is just
not a rational military strategy
for either side in the foreSee-
able future"
Informed sources acknowl-
edged that the underlying
theme in Mr.. Gilpatrie's re-
marks could be described as
mutual forbearance"-that is,
that both sides should refrain
from making space a battle
field.
This idea Of voluntary re-
straint parallels the approach
taken by Secretary of Defense
Mcnamara some months ago in
offering the Soviet Union "the
strongest imaginable incentive
to spare cities and limit any
nuclear attacks to military tar
gets in the event of war.
Pentagon officials, obviously
anxious that Mr.. Gilpatric's
words get maximum exposure,
directed attention to the mill
tary-space passage tucked into
a speech devoted mainly to re-
search and development as a
factor in defense buying.
A spokesman said Mr.. Gil
patric'S remarks on weapons in
space had been approved at the
White House and represented
the administrations position
on the military space program.

when it emerges from confer
Ience and goes to the Whit
House.
Treasury Secretary Dillol
sent Senator Mansfield a let
ter describing it as "a majol
advance" even though tht
Presidents recommendations oi
April, 1861, have not been fully
accepted.
The 7 per cent investment
credit is expected to cost about
$I.3 billion. partly offset by
increased collections from other
provisions.
Secretary Dillon pointed out
that even without the with
holding system for dividends
and interest the Senate bill will
raise more than $500 million
| in new revenue, offsetting
nearly all of the investment
credit outgo.
Called "Tn Balance"
Senator Mansfield said that
over a full year the bill would
lose $210 million. But he said
this makes no allowance for the
additional revenue expected
from business expansion Gre
ated by the investment credit
When this is considered, he
said, "the bill is at least in
balance"

LONDON, Sept. 6 (AP).-Dr.
Robert A. Soblen poisoned him
self today, minutes before the
fugitive spy was to be deported
to a United States prison
aboard jet airliner, the Brit
ish Home Office announced.
Soblen was rushed at once to
Hillingdon Hospital near Lon
don Airport. seriously i'll and
unconscious.
A Home Office statement
confirmed that the 61-year-old
psychiatrist took a drug of the
barbiturate group minutes be-
fore he was due to board a Pan
American jet airliner for New
York to serve a life sentence
for passing wartime secrets to
the Soviet Union.
An official investigation was
launched as to how Soblen got
drugs and how he was able to
swallow them unobserved.
Under Medical Treatment
The text of the Home Office
statement:
'Dr. Soblen, who became Ill
in the ambulance taking him
from Brixton (prison) to Lon
don Airport this morning, is
at present in Hillingdon Hos
pital, Middlesex, undergoing
medical treatment.
1T has been confirmed in the
hospital that DR.. Soblen has
taken drug of the barbiturato
group and that his present con.
dition is due to this. A fun
inquiry into the circumstances
Of the case is being instituted. /"
Thus DR.. Soblen. who a few
weeks ago cut himself in a
simulated suicide attempt
again delayed attempts to send
him back to q United StateI
prison.
! The Home Office said Soblei
c will remain at Hillingdon Hos
pital for at least "a hours.
, A spokesman said It was TO.
early to form any firm conclu.
sion on his prospects Of recov-
cry.
Drugs Hidden on Him
According to one account
Soblen took barbiturates which
he had hidden on him. This
dramatic development occurred
while the ambulance taking
him to the plane was at th0
airport gate.
Soblen, who has the blood
disease leukemia, turned pale
and fell unconscious. A prison
doctor riding in the ambulance
ordered him rushed to the hos
pital, saying he was unfit q

Effort to Hide Failures
Seen in Red Berlin Note

The claims would give the Eas
German regime, which tn
Western powers do not recog
nize. authority over the suppl,
routes between West Berlin anC
West Germany.
Russia told the Western
powers that what Is now needed
for "normalizing the situation
in West Berlin" is not consulta-
ton, but the signing of a Ger
man treaty which would lend
the occupation regime in West
Berlin"
The hope among Western
leaders is that If and when
Mr.. Khrushchev does sign a
treaty with East Germany he
will provide for restraints on
subsequent East German ac-
tions to avoid a showdown with
the Western powers over their
use of the supply lines to Ber-
lin. The position of the West
ern powers is that they will
not recognize East German
authority as a substitute for
Soviet responsibilities with re-
spect to Western rights.
ProvocatiOns Charged
The note accused the three
Western powers of provocative
action in Berlin and blamed
them for a whole series of
incidents arising around the
wall in recent months.
Russia charged the allies
with hypocrisy in seeking ito
assume the role of champion of
human principles" and said
that if they wished to act
humanely they could bring
about the release Of German
anti-FasciSts and peace fighters
who. as in Hitler's time, are in
prison in West Germany. /"
Authorities here considered
such charges unusually bitter
and angry in tone and an
evidence of Soviet unwilling
ness to try to moderate con-
ditions in Berlin.
