NEW DELHI, India, Nov. 10
(AP) Reporting a slight shift
in Soviet attitude, Prime Min
lister Nehru said today the Rus
slams will send NIGH jet
fighter planes for midas pos
sible use in the undeclared
border war with Red China.
The Prime Minister told a
closed session of a consultative
committee of Parliament that
a number of the jets would
arrive in mid-December.
India put in the order for
the jets long before the Red
Chinese opened an offensive
october 20 on two fronts in
the Himalays along midas
northern frontiers. Six jets were
believed to have been ordered
for December and six more for
delivery at an unspecified later
date.
Mr.. Nehru'S statement on
the planes, reported to news
men by committee members,
was the latest from the gov
eminent on the long secret jet
deal.

Baltimore Agents
Seize WiIcoxson

Bobby Randell (One-Eye)
Wilcoxson, suspect in the rob-
berry of a Washington bank and
regarded as one of the most
dangerous criminals in the
country, was captured quietly
yesterday in Baltimore by the
FBI.
Wilcoxson and his girl friend,
Jacqueline Rose, 10, were taken
into custody by a squad of FBI
agents outside a newly rented
North Baltimore home. He was
armed with a loaded .38-cali-
Der pistol.
With the couple when they
were arrested was Miss Roses
14-monthS-old son.
FBI agents had the house
under surveillance from late
Friday until early yesterday
afternoon.
To assure the. safety Of the
infant, the couple were not ar
rested until they were outside
the house. Agents stepped in
as Wilcoxson was about to en-
ter his car.
20 Agents at Scene
Eight agents, who made up
the arreSting party, were spot
ted in three houses in the i'm
mediate neighborhood. One of
the houses. directly across the
street, is the home of FBI agent
James C. Dunlap. Neither he
nor two other agents who live
on the street had recognized
Wilcoxson because the fugitive
was heavily disguised.

The Navy was taking no

The United States guided

trial, rang with cheers. Some
women tainted. One woman
was injured in the crush of a
crowd outside. A Brussels news
paper was on the streets with
an extra within minutes after
the verdict.
A battery Of defense at
torneys in two days of Summa-
ton countered prosecution de-
mands for a verdict of guilty
by appealing to the jury to
consider the killing of 8-day-
old Carinne Vandeput to be
Society's crime.
, One More Appeal
On this final, tense day, de-
tense attorney Edgar Emile
Jeunehomme made one more
appeal to the jury:
You know, as we do, that
this trial should also have con-
Sidered the responsibility of
society, science, some doctors
and all the merchants of in
firmities who should be on the
bench of the accused. My CHI
ents are victims of thalido-
mide. :"
Thalidomide is a tranquil
ling drug which has been
found to cause deformities in
the offspring when given to
pregnant women.
Mrs. Suzanne Vandeput took
it during her pregnancy. Her
child was born May % and
died on May 20.
The young mother admitted
she put a barbiturate into the
baby's formula. She was
charged with homicide. Her
hubsand, Jean, IS; her sister,
Monique de la Marck, 26; the
child's grandmother, Fernando
Yerna, SO, and DR.. jacques
Casters, 33, where charged
with completely.
DR.. Casters was accused of
supplying the fatal drug.
They were not in court when
the verdict was reported by the
jury president, but were
brought in later to be in
formed by court president

acquitted. You are to be freed

FOresaw Acquittal
II always believed in the &C
quittal," said Mrs. Vandeput.
II hoped all the time but !
was not that confident" DR..
Casters said. II am of a pessi-
mistic nature"
The jury deliberated one
hour and 40 minutes to reach
its verdict. The jury's COM
plete acquittal meant the
prosecution, which had sug-
geSted a verdict of guilty with
leniency, could not appeal.
Letters received by the
court, newspapers and radio
atoms during the trial
strongly favored acquittal of
the defendants.
But a high Belgian court Of
fetal in Brussels disagreed
with the verdict.
For me, having killed a
child is a crime and there is no
excuse for that" he said.
What is to be feared is that
other persons will allow them
selves, on the basis of this YER
dict, to act in the same way"

TOKYO, Japan - This

I can't understand it. Tokyo,
for example, is the largest
city in the world. 1t is the

exciting by night. One out Of

the capital. The nation is
made up of four big islands
and 5000 small ones. It sits

that others will not catch
