Embassy compound. Workmen
hastily erected a makeshift
screen Of plywood to block the
view of the lunchroom entrance
and prevent pictures being
taken of the protesters. News
correspondents were ordered
out of the Embassy compound
by American officials.
Later the makeshift screen
was taken down on condition
that Western newsmen would
take no photographs.
Some of the protesters filed
out of the lunchroom and stood
next to The bus while American
and Soviet officials talked with

If farmers accurately un-
derstand the issues, he said
he believes the proposed wheat
control plan will win the
necessary two-thirds major
ity in the referendum. This
would bring into effect ma
tional quotas on wheat pro-
duction aimed at reducing the
wheat surplus from IL billion
bushels to about 600 million
bushels.
In a reference to the Eu:

Freeman said there must be
continued European outlets
for American wheat and flour,

He said these arrangements
must be comparable to those of

Levies Threatened
The Common Market coun-
tries are threatening to impose
special levies on imports of
American farm goods.
Mr.. Freeman said an accept
able arrangement with the
Common Market on agricul-
ture is "a prerequisite to any
meaningful negotiations" un-
der the 1862 tariff-cutting law,
which is to pave the way for
two-way tariff reductions be-
tween the United States and

partment from the Billie Sol
Estes scandal, involving grain
storage transactions by the

New Armor, Escorts Seen
For Copters in Wet Nam

copters on their flanks, and
the first wave of escorts would
hover overhead ready to get
back into the fray if necessary.
This suppressive fire might
not kill any of the enemy, but
1t would discourage the enemy
from shooting at the troop
copters.
Also, the troop carriers could
be protected by new plastic
armor. The armor could easily
be attached to existing hell
copters and would give some
protection against small-arms
fire.
The Pentagon has long ex-
pected that the Communists
would come up with a better
defense against helicopters.
When the choppers we're first
introduced in Wet Nam more
than a year ago, the guerrillas
seemed to be shocked and
baffled. Then they began to
shoot rifles and occasionally
plant poles in likely landing
areas in an attempt to damage
the rotor blades.
The Army and Marine Corps
countered by arming a few
helicopters and firing when
they saw enemy troops below.
The Army's new concept
would increase the firepower
tremendously and would per-
NIT suppressive fire whether or
not the enemy was visible
below
The Army and Marine Corps
also can be expected to tighten
security in helicopter opera
tions. Apparently the Commu-
nists yesterday knew where
and when the landing would
take place.

United States Ambassador
Foy D. Kohler did not ask for
instructions from the State De-
partment before turning over
to Soviet officials the Siberian
peasants seeking refuge today
in the Moscow Embassy.
State Department officials
said Mr.. Kohler acted in ac-
cordance with the principle
that the United States does not
recognize the granting of asy-
lum by embassies or con-
sular offices. Therefore, they
stressed, there was no need for
specific instructions.
They said Mr.. Kohler had
filed a detailed report on the
incident.
Granting of asylum by en-
bassies and consular offices
formerly was recognized and
practiced to a considerable ex-
tent but in more recent times
it has been discontinued ex-
cept by a limited number of
countries, mostly Latin Amer
ican.
The United States has con-
sistently disapproved of the
principle of asylum and has
always declined to recognize it
as a part of international law
