Ditched AirIiner Pilot Says

ANTWERP, Belgium, Sept,
20 (AP).-The ditched airliner's
captain. John D. Murray, told
yesterday how q mental flash
sent him back into the foun-
cdering planes cabin for a flash
light-the torch that helped
save 4S Americans from death
in the Atlantic.
.. The story came out at the
climax Of the rescue on the An
stwerp dockside where the Swiss
freighter Celerina put 81 sur
vivors ashore five days after
they were picked up at sea fol-
lowing the crash Of their Flying
Tiger super Constellation.
Earlier. q others had been
landed in Ireland. Twenty
eight were known dead, or
missing and presumed dead.
Capt. Murray, veteran Of "a
years flying, occasionally fin
sered q bandage on his cut
head as, in a measured voice,
he recounted the fears and
anxieties Of the drama,
!! The trouble started, he said,
at 21,0O0 feet over the Atlantic
late Sunday.

Mississippi's racial integra-
ton dispute drew a big play to-
day in the pro-government ra-
dio and press Of white-ruled
South Africa.
Japanese newspapers re-
ported details of James H.
Meredith's efforts to become
the first NEGRO admitted to the
all-white University Of Mis-
sissippi. They had no editorial
comment.
The Russians were told by
the Soviet government news
paper Izvestia that the United
States Governments prestige
and authority are hanging in
the balance" And the Commu-
mist youth newspaper Kom-
somlskaya Pravda said Ameri-
can news reports from Missis-
sippi resemble bulletins from
a theater Of war operations"
The Amsterdam newspaper
Volkskrant said the difference
between Little Rock and the
Meredith case is that in Missis-
sippi it is a university whose
students have reached the age
that they can judge for them
selves"
Recalls Little Rock
The editorial recalled that at
the time Little Rock fought to
keep its high schools white,
Negro students we're already
studying at the University Of
Arkansas.
Violence does not really solve
racial questions, the editorial
said. adding: "In education
spanking is only of avail with
very small childrenewho are
not yet open to reasoning"
The Copenhagen newspaper
Information said. there can
be no doubt about the will
in Washington to enforce the
laws"
The state-chartered South
African radio carried a special
broadcast from South Africa's
Foreign Minister Eric Louw in
New York. charging that the
United States press and radio
virtually suppressed" parts of
his speech made earlier this
week at the United Nations in
defense of South Africa's racial
policies. He had criticized
Americas own integration
problems in the Southern
States.
Cardinal Question
A report to Moscow from
Izvestia's New York corre-
spondents said "the cardinal
question has been posed-can
the Government guarantee obe-
dience to the laws of the Ma
tion?"
The Soviet government or
gan splashed the story of Mr..
Meredith's attempts to register

life rats. Then I was swept
into the sea-"
After swimming 10 minutes
he saw a raft. People helped
him in.
Then it began to add up.
IA paratrooper. Joe e. Hoffer,
asked if snyone had a flash
light. The raft was so crowded
1t took me several minutes to
get 1t out because Of the people
on my lap.
"Hoffer-that boys a real
hero-used it to flash the plane
which pinpolnted our position.
It circled so low that at times
they had us in their landing
lights.
The same torch brought the
rescue ship Celerina,"
Praises Ship Captain
Capt. Murray said the
Celerinas captain, Domencio
Lugly, did a magnificent job in
swinging the big ship right
up to the life raft. The seas
were too rough to put the
ships boats out.
The pilot said 1t was his
first ditching.
I've had no trouble like this
before. But I'll certainly fly
again."
Carol Ann Gould of Lynd-
hurst, N. j., the only survivor
among the four stewardesses.
told how she took off her slip
to stop the blood flowing from
a head wound suffered by
George Brown, a young para
trooper.
She said Mr.. Brown hauled
10 people aboard the raft
despite his injuries.

nette described him as IAN alb

With Miss Gould was Mrs.
Helga Groves. beautiful Ger
man bride Of an American SER
geant from Pittsburgh, Pa. She
had no smiles and nothing to
say. Her husband. John, was
among the 16 missing and
given up for lost.
Wife Dies on Raft
Another sorrowful survivor
was 1t. Col. George H. Dent
Of Fredericksburg. Va. His wife,
Elizabeth, died on the raft
floating them to safety.
In a halting voice he said /:
I'VE came out of the plane to-
gether through an emergency
exit forward of the regular door
I'm not too clear about what
happened then.
Elizabeth called to me that
there was a raft. We swan
toward IL. She was pulled in
on one side and / was on the
other. ! talked to her once be-
fore we arrived at the side Of
the ship. When I had enough
room to move ! got to her side,
but she was obviously dead.
II tried to resuscitate her but
it was no USE"
Col. Dent said the Air Force
has arranged to send him
straight home to join his chill
dren-his 10-year-old daughter
Laughlin. Tommy 8, and Cath
crime. who will be 1-year-old in
October.
They are with his sister at

ESPIONAGE

travelled to New York. the FB1
said. he returned to Newport
with large sums Of money.
If convicted Of espionage, the
sailor could be sentenced to
death or to life Imprisonment.
The FBI said DTummond's
activities have been under close
observation, with the co-opera-
ton Of Naval authorities ever
since he was stationed, in Eng
land in 1858. He returned to
another duty station in the
United States the following
ing year.
Under Long Surveillance
Intensive surveillance by the
FBI, dating from the subjects
service in England, revealed the
sailor had been in extreme
financial difficulty" for some
time. the FBI said.
In the complaint filed last
night, Drummond Is specifically
charged with travel to New York
City on August 13, 1862, and on
September Z to carry out his
espionage offenses. The COM
plant before the United States
District Court for Southern New
York said that from August and
continuously thereafter, Drum
mond, Prokhorov and Vyrodov
conspired to communicate, de-
liver and transmit" to the Union
of Soviet Socialist Republics in
formation relating to the ma
tional defense.
On August Is, the FBI
charged, Drummond went to
the residence Of the two Rus,
sians-an apartment at 400
Central Park West. On August
II, the FBI continued, Drum
mond was in possession Of 50
$40 bills at a time when his
net pay as a first class petty
officer was $l20.95 per month.
Sometime between September
s and 9. four official docu-
ments relating to the national
defense were discovered to be
missing from a file in Drum
office at the Newport
naval base, the FBI said.
Secret Documents Found
Drummond m ade another
trip from Newport to New
York between September Z and
8. On September 9 a total of
IL classified documents were
found hidden in the trunk of
the sailors car, the FBI said.
The documents included the
four that were first found
missing.
At the same. time, a search
of Drummond's car trunk dis
closed a Minox camera which
had been purchased by an en-
ploye of the Soviet mission to
the U. N. on February Is, 1862,
the FBI said.
The two Russians dropped
out Of sight early today after
they were identified at FBI
headquarters in New York. Mr..
Hoover said the apartment
they occupy was leased in the
names of Vadim v. Sorokin
and Vladilen v. Klokov, for
merly third secretaries with
the Soviet delegation in New
York.
Mr.. Sorokin left the United
States in May, 1862, and Mr..
Klokov departed last Novem-
ber. Mr.. Klokov recently was
denied a permit to re-enter the
United States when the Rus
slams failed to explain large
amounts of electronic equip
ment, restricted for export to
the Soviet Union, which Mr..
Klokov had purchased from an
American businessman.
Drummond's arrest came
less than two weeks after the
FBI disclosed that a young
Queens lawyer, Richard Fink,
had been playing an under
cover role for more than three
years by feeding information to

by Mr.. Rusk.
Pakistan had objected pre-
viously to holding a formal
council of ministers meeting,

foreign ministers held by Mr..
Rusk.
Returning Monday
No date has been set for the
next Rusk- Gromyko meeting,
but the Secretary Of State is
returning to Washington Mon
day night and it is expected to
be either this week end or late
next week after Mr.. Rusk comes
back.
Part of tomorrow will be TAX
EN- up by talks between United
States and British officials on
Cuba and other issues. Presi-
dent Kennedy, British Foreign
Secretary Lord Home and Mr..
Rusk will be among the partic-
ipants. The site Of the meeting
will be announced later.
United States sources said
Mr.. Rusk had planned to take
up Berlin at his three-hour
luncheon meeting with Mr..
Gromyko last Tuesday, but had
found there was not enough
time after they had dealt at
length with Laos and a ban on
nuclear weapons testing.
Informants said Mr.. Rusk
was not anxious to take up the
Cuban problem with the So
Wet foreign minister because
he considered the problem was
not negotiable. They added,
however, that the Secretary of
State would bring it up If a
suitable opportunity arises.
Kennedy Point Stressed
In this event. it was said,
Mr.. Rusk would use the oc-
casion to emphasize the posi-
ton taken by President Ken
nedy in his September 13 state
ment so that the Russians
would have no doubt about
where the United States stands.
The President said in his
statement that the United
States would not attack Cuba
but that he would act quickly
il the security of the United
States was threatened by any
attempt to export communism
by force to any neighboring
country.
United States sources con-
firmed that Mr.. Rusk is trying
to work out with foreign min
listers of the Caribbean coun-
tries steps to be taken to pre-
vent the spread Of Communist
propaganda by the Fidel Castro
regime and to curb possible in
filtration by Castro agents.
This will be one of the main
subjects taken up by the Latin
American foreign ministers
when they hold their informal
meeting with Mr.. Rusk in
Washington next Tuesday and
Wednesday.
viii Attend BOIshOi
Mr.. Rusk planned to attend
a performance Of the Bolshoi
ballet tonight as MIR. Gro
myko's guest, but U. S. officials
doubted that this would provide
any opportunity for diplomatic
talks.
Polish Foreign Minister Adam
Rapacki yesterday accused the
United States of following an
extremely dangerous policy
toward Cuba. He also de-
nounced the West German gov
ernment as "the most stubborn
and aggressive cold war force
in the West"
