LBJ OK Is
Given NAT0
PoIaris Navy

WASHINGTON CUPD-Presi-
dent Johnson has reviewed
plans for a NATO nuclear navy
armed with Polaris missiles and
ordered full speed ahead on the
controversial project, admins
tration officials said today.
One result is that key con-
gresSmen soon will be consulted
by the administration on details
Of the proposed Multi Lateral
Nuclear Force" (MLF), which
would consist of Is surface YES
sells with a total Of 200 missiles.
The legislators are to be given
a progress report on negotiations
with the Allies.
Arrangements already are be-
ing made for a demonstration
ship to prove that it is practi-
cal to operate a warship with a
crew drawn from several allied
nations. The United States has
offered one of its guided mis-
Sile destroyerS for this purpose.
Training of a mixed crew for
the demonstration ship is ex-
pected to begin early in the new
year and take about six months.
The United States, West Ger
many, Greece and Turkey favor
the proposed force. Italy also is
understood to be agreeable to
joining but a formal decision
cannot be expected until the
new left-center government of
Premier Aldo Moro gets more
firmly established.
Britain has refused to COM
nit itself to the project, waver-
ing between military and politi-
cal objections. However, both
Britain and Italy are expected
to participate in the operation
of the demonstration" ship
since this will not definitely
commit them.
The Russians have bitterly
criticized the proposed NATO
nuclear navy, asserting that it
is simply a device to get nu-
clear weapons into the hands
of the West Germans.

Earlier last week, the Pasca-

stead for the job. The two Of
ficers were among eight who
earlier took CS tests for the posi-
ton.
Officers - captain or above
were eligible to take the exa-
limitations, it was reported.
After the commissions recon-
mendation, Acting Chief Of Po-
lice j. B. Gibson petitioned that
Court Clerk BroaduS did not hold
the rank of captain or above and
that the tests were in error,
adding that qualifications for
the tests should have specified
whether captain" meant in
rank or pay grade.
The mayor and council are
expected to make the announce
ment soon, it was said.
Officers taking the tests were

Second Measure
The vocational school bill was
the second educational measure
to 60 to Johnson in three days.
On Monday he signed the IL
billion college aid bill to help
build clasSrooms, laboratories
and libraries.
The new measure authorizes
is billion in new spending to:
Expand federal aid to voca-
tional schools four-fold, with
strong new emphasis on train
ing in skills that are in short
age now, rather than those
which have been outmoded in
the post World War II automa-
ton surge. The expansion would
cost 731 million over four
years.
Increase National Defense
Education Act (NDEA) student
loan funds by SO per cent, and
extend the life Of the 1858
NDEA for another year to June
80, 1865. The new NDEA au-
thority totals 1904 million.
Continue for two years be-
yond July l, 1868, the 12-year-
old 'impacted areas" aid pro-
gram for grade and G

cost $527 million for the two
years.

0 African Students
In Red Square
Body Found,
Race Bias
Is Charged

MOSCOW (UPI)-An estimat-
ed 400 African students demon
Strated outside the Kremlin
walls in Red Square for four
hours today against the death,
in allegedly suspicious circum.
Stances" Of a student from
Ghana.
There was no violence, how
ever, and the students dispersed
in an orderly manner by pass
ing through cordons Of Soviet
militia police.
The students, protesting
against allegedly general mis-
treatment Of Africans within the
Soviet Union, said the body Of a
Ghanian student had been found
dead beside some railroad
tracks north Of Moscow. The
dead student was identified as
ASira Aldo.
Qualified Soviet sources said
that Aldo had been found dead
near Kalinin, about 100 miles
north Of Moscow. The students
claimed the body was found
naked, but the sources said it
had been fully clothed.
The Soviet sources claimed
that an autopsy showed Aldo
froze to death in minus zero
temperatures while "highly in
toxicated." There was no sign
Of violence, the sources said.
The demonstration was the
second such incident in a Com
munist country in less than a
year. Last February, Commu-
mist police in Bulgaria used
clubs to dispense a demonstra-
ton of African students protest
ing against a government ban
on a student organization. Sew
veral were injured.
The students said there had
been no police or militia move
to interfere with their demon
Stration.
They carried signs reading
"death and friendship''-an ap-
parent bitter twist to the Com
muniSt slogan Of "Peace and
friendship"
Another sign they carried said

ing one, got off to a late start.
Perhaps the best of the eve
ming lay in the way she nego-
tiated the trials of the unac-
companied Bach sonata. This,
except for the fugue, was
played in an affectionate man
ner that was, refreshing.
Somewhat disappointing was
the Beethoven sonata. There
were moments when the piano
overburdened the violin, and
there were other moments of
neutrality-suspicious. in the
final movement. Reynaldo
Reyes, a faculty member at
the Peabody Conservatory in
Baltimore, otherwise proved a
more considerate partner to
the violinist.
The sonatina by Wallingford
Riegger, the only modern work
on the program, had flashes of
brilliance, as well as carefully
worked out detail. 1t was a
fearful night for Just intona-
ton, but the harmonics in the
second movement were true
and the performance generally
had style.
