mile trestle section of the

Eastern Airlines strike were tc
resume today.

The talks recessed yesterday

The pilots association was
brought into the negotiations
because of Mr.. Goldberg's be-

fourth week. is basically a jur-

whether the third man in the
proposed jet plane crew will be
a pilot or an engineer. At pres

of an engineer and three
pilots, but the number is to be
reduced to three.
The same issue also was be-

Secret Talks

ALGIERS. July IT (AP).-
Algeria'S military leaders met
secretly in the mountains south
Of Algiers today to seek a way
to reconcile the new nations
quarreling leaders.
Leaders of the guerrilla
forces in the interior wilayas
(zoneS) and of the regular
army convened in an emerg-
Iency Council of Wilayas."' A
large majority of the officers
taking part were known to
Sympathize with diSsident Dep
uty Premier Ahmed Ben Bella
in his fight to diSplace moder-
ate Premier Ben YouSSef Ben
Khedda.
The military's recommended
tions, expected within 48 hours,
will almost certainly include a
demand for a meeting of the
72-member National Council
Iof the Algerian revolution
(CNRA). on which Mr.. Ben
Bella also has a majority.
Difficulties Rising
Difficulties were growing for
Premier Ben Khedda, faced
with detection and doubts in
his own ranks, the determined
opposition of the 45,000-strong
regular army and the Algerian
public's growing impotence.
The exact Location of the
wilaya council meeting was
unknown. One source placed
it at a command post of the
pro-Ben Bella wilaya near
Mouzaa-les-Mines high in the
Blida Atlas Mountains. This
could not be confirmed, and
military roadblocks in the area
kept away all persons without
special military permits.
Information Minister Mo-
manned Yazid and Foreign
Minister Saad Dahlab threat
ened last night to resign from
the government unless the
wilaya council brought a So
luton to the crisis.
Mr.. Dahlab said he would
retire from the government
rather than serve "a clam. Mr..
Yazid said in a radio inter-
view: I'VE have no major dis
agreement over policies with
Ben Bella. We are all agreed
on the political aims of our
revolution. The difference is
mainly over personalities"
A central figure in the quar-
rel was Col. Houari Boueme-
dienne. chief of staff of the

Only the autonomous zone

Immediately east of the capital
remained loyal to Premier Der
Khedda. This left the govern
ment in control of little more
than a coastal strip, barely GO
miles wide, stretching from
AlgierS eastward to the Tunis-
ian border.
The government forces would
be hopeleSSly outnumbered in
shooting fight. Most observ-
ers in Algiers believe Premier
Ben Khedda will be forced to
come to terms with his enemies
sooner or later.
Officials of Mr.. Ben Khedda's
regime feel certain the civilian
population in the areas under
Mr.. Ben Bella'S control are
kept on his side only at gun
point. 1t seems unlikely, how
ever, that they will be given an
opportunity to express their
views freely.

Dollar Drain
Cut May Raise
DefenseCOst
By the Associated Press

A new Defense Department
drive to cut the overseas dol
lar drain another 5000 million
without sacrificing fighting
power could increase the Ma
tons defense budget, now
running close to $50 billion
yearly.
But Secretary of Defense
Mcnamara. in launching the
three-year drive yesterday,
said he didn't know how much
the new approach would cost
the taxpayers.
THE savings in gold we be-
lieve will justify such a pen
atty" he told a news confer
ence.
Housing a Factor
Most Of the savings will
come through reductions in
overseas buying, much Of it in
Europe. Pentagon experts will
also study whether fewer for
eign workers can be employed
at overseas military installa-
tons and will look into the
possibility of sending prefab-
ricated housing overseas.
This would mean the pur-
chase of more supplies in this
country at higher United States
prices plus the added cost of
transporting them to other
countries.
Its going to be a tough Job, -
Mr.. Mcnamara said.
But he added the objective
can be reached without reduc-
ing combat readiness or Great
ing hardships for individual
Servicemen and their depen-
dents.
Won't Bar Families
The plan does not envision a
ban on the flow of military
dependents overseas. Service
mems families only recently
began travelling to Europe after
an eight-month ban imposed
to save money.
Mr.. Mcnamara also expressed
hope of expanding an expert
mental program of rotating
l,500-man Army battle groups
to Europe for short periods
without dependents. He esti-
mated the savings here at be-
tween $1,000 and $4,000 an
nually per soldier.
The Defense Departments
share of the balance of pay
mentS deficit hit $2.6 billion
during 1861. With a program
already under way, Mr.. Nc
Namara hopes to shave this to
81 billion by 1866.

Reds Seek
Landing Riqhts
BY the Associated Press

United States officials have
reported that the Soviet Union
has been seeking landing rights
for its aircraft in Latin Amer
lea and in some Western Afri-
can countries.
These officials said Moscow
put out feelers for landing
rights several months ago, well
before the outbreak of the
Cuban crisis. ..
They said Russia is known to
be seeking a general expansion
of its air routes and added
there is little doubt here that
the primary aim is to assure
additional channels to Cuba
should she be blocked in using
existing routes. w.
The Miami News said yester-
day the Russians are seeking
landing rights in the two South
ern Hemisphere continents to
substitute a weapons airlift now
that the United States is block
aiding shipment of offensive
arms to Cuba by sea.
Officials mentioned only
Brazil in the Western Henri
sphere, and said that, so far
as is known here, a request to
Brazil has been neither ap-
proved nor rejected so far.
But Brazilian Ambassador
Roberto de Oliveira Campos
described as completely false"
reports he said had been ru-
mored for some time that
Russia had asked for landing
rights in his country.
Some sources said that the
Soviets are hoping to get per-
mission to use facilities in
Guinea on the Atlantic Coast.
Some specialists said they
doubted that President Sekou
Toure of Guinea would grant
landing rights considering the
present tension in the Carib-
bean. Earlier friendly relations
between Guinea and Russia
have cooled considerably since
1861. ~

Minister Doudou Than side
