Patent Office
Creates Revised
Promotion Plan

WASHINGTON, DC. - A new
promotion plan to insure equal
opportunity in the US. Patent
Office has resulted in the closing
of a complaint signed by go en-
ployccs concerning promotion
selection procedures. it was an
nounced today.
Hobart Taylor, Jr. executive
vice chairman of the Presidents
Committee. said the revised Pro-
motion Plan should result in
effective resolution of the com.
plant claiming denial of equal
opportunity for promotion.
The closing of this complaint
does not restrict the right of in
diyidual employees to file fur
tkcr complaints as to their indi
vidual sitpations should they feel
that the new promotion plan falls
short of its goal of equal oppor-
tunity. Mr.. Taylor said. The group
complaint referred to promotion
procedures and did not concern
the situations of any particular
individuals.
Mr. Taylor said the Patens Of
flee adopted the new promotion
plan as the result of suggestions
and comments of employees. lie
said he understands it includes
a higher degree of employee par
tlcipation in the procedures by
which persons are selected for
promotion than is practiccd in
any other government agency.
The revised Promotion Plan |
includes provisions for Cd en-
ployce scrutiny of the promotion
selection lists; (2) setting forth
qualification standards Off Jobs:
CD employee review of supcrvis.
Dry ratings with right of appeal;
t4) the posting of all vacancies;
(5) selection for appointments
from the first three names on
the promotion selection lists, and
(6) right of employees to asccr.
tain their position on thte elig-
ible registers.
In the course of developing
the revised promotion plan, the
Patent Office Committee work
ing on the program held numcr.
Gus meeting and interviews with
employees, including the com.
plaInants. The first proposed plan
was circulated to employees and
as the result of suggestions of
employees, was amended in
some ways, according to Prcsi-
dents Committee records.
Complainants are being noti.
lied by letter of the action tax.

Argentina Nips
New ReVo|tBid

BUENOS AIRES, April ls
tAP). - Argentina's military
chiefs indicated last night they
had nipped another power bid
by navy and civilian rebels who
staged an abortive revolt
April 2.
The armed forces and the
Interior Ministry headed by
Gen. Enrique Rauch reaffirmed
their pledge to hold presiden-
tial elections scheduled for
June %. The public regarded
the promises of balloting with
apathy and skepticism.
The military remained on the
alert. and tension continued
to hang over Buenos Aires.
Armed patrols roamed down.
town streets as they have for
the past three nights. There
were unconfirmed reports that
tank and antiaircrat units had
been ordered to bases near the
capital.
A Defense Ministry COM
munique said the latest plot
was being fomented by a small
minority involved in psyche
logical warfare to offset their
previous defeat.
The Interior Ministry had
announced earlier that seven
close advisers Of deposed Presi-
dent Arturo Frondizi had been
arrested and charged with plot
ting Communist revolution. II
said eight others were being
sought.
President Jose Maria Guido,
reported Ill, conferred at length
with the military chiefs at his
suburban home.
The only official word on the
conference was that Mr.. Guido
had summoned military leaders
to consider the general situa-
ton in the country and the
pacification Of same in the

carrying out Of the process that
will lead to a solution of the in
stitutional and political state of
the republic"
This was taken to mean that
Mr.. Guido and the generals had
gone over the governments
long promised statement Of
policy on the June elections.
There has been speculation
that the new government policy
contemplates further curbs on
the powerful Peronist vote. 1t
is known that military circles
are still split over the Peronist
issue, basic cause Of the 13-
month-old Argentine crisis.
However. Gen. Rauch told
reporters last night that no
further Tightening Of restric-
tons on Peronists was con-
templated. The Peronists sup
posedly will be allowed a
limited role in the June
elections for President and
Congress. .t..t
Gen. Rauch said he planned
to confer with political parties
on their selection plans. 1t was
presumed he would include the
Union Popular Party, sup
porters Of former Dictator
Juan D. Peron who normally
can count on a third Of the
vote.

erences.
The campaign breaks. at least
domestically, the name-calline
truce Mr.. Mao declared March
8 when he invited Mr.. Khru-
shchev to Picking.
If the campaign follows pre-
vious patterns it could spill over
national boundaries and swell
into another international wal
Of words between the two Com
munist powers.
Pattern Followed
The current anti-KhruShcheN
attacks so far have followed the
pattern that preceded the
name-calling truce. Inform
ants say the main new note
in the campaign is the emphasis
on the charge that Mr.. Khru-
shchev is the stumbling block
to Communist unity.
Mr.. KhruShchev is condemned
for his backdown on Cuba, his
attacks on Albania, his renewed
friendship with Yugoslavia. his
alleged support Of India in the
China-India border conflict and
his policy Of peaceful coexist-
ence with the West.

elimination from the shipbuild-
ing program were two attack
lnuclear-p ow e red submarines,
particularly so because Of the
long lead time (for planning
and construction) and because
at the present time we, the
United States Navy, have a
very small numerical advantage
in nuclear submarines of all
types over the Russians. We
have to preserve this lead"
The published transcript did
not show whether Admiral An
derson had given a comparison
Of the numerical strengths Of
the two submarine forces.
The latest count shows 80
United States atomic subma-
rines in the water, of which 81
are operating and three others
launched ard in the process of
dockside completion and fit
ting out. Another, the Thresher,
was lost last week.
Russia is estimated unoffi-
cially to have slightly more
than 20 atomic powered SUBJ
marines in operation. The ma
jority of these are believed To
be attack types, but Admiral
Anderson said missile launch
ing Soviet submarines now are
in operation, posing a "Seri-
Gus threat to the United
States"
B0lder Policy Backed
Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor
Army general who is chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
has said that like Gen, Wheel
er he favors moving toward
production of the Nike-Zeus
missile killer. He told the
House group he would favor a
holder policy in trying for an
operational system.
The Nike-zeus, under de-
velopment for six years, has
scored four successful inter-
ceptions of United States in
tercontinental ballistic missile
target warheads fired some
5000 miles out over the
Pacific.
However. Mr.. Mcnamara
and Mr.. Kennedy have with
held approval of any step to
put the system into produc-
ton. expressing doubts as to
its ability to handle flocks of
enemy missiles or warheads
equipped with decoys.
Instead, the administration
now Is backing an improved
anti-missile concept called
Nike-X. This system would in
corporate the Nike-Zeus, de-

signed to knock down missile
warheads about 100 miles out,
with the much faster Sprint
missile which would strike at
any warheads that penetrated
the atmosphere. Authorities
have indicated the Nike-X
could not be ready until about
1870.
Preserve Mutual DIFFERENCE
Gen. LeMay and Gen Shoup,
in urging development of a
super nuclear bomb, based their
arguments primarily on the
basis that such a step would
preserve the policy of mutual
difference.
The biggest nuclear weapon
the United States now can
deliver is understood to be in
the 24-megaton range. 1t is
carried by a B-52 bomber
United States ballistic missiles
pack a 5-megaton wallop.
Russia is known to have
tested a bomb we'll over SO
megatons and United States
military officials accept its
claim to have developed a 100
megaton one. A megaton IL
the equivalent Of a million
tons of TINT.
The official Pentagon view
is that such a weapon of loo
megatons has no clear military
advantage over smaller bombs
Neither Gen. LeMay nor Gen
Shoup differed with that con-
clusion, but they added that
the psychology Of the deter
rent policy required being able
to match the Soviet threat OF
such a devastating weapon.

Sukarno Calls
Indonesia and
China Pillars

JAKARTA. Indonesia, April
10 (AP President Sukarno
today called Communist China
and Indonesia the pillars of
the new emerging forces" and
predicted the two nations will
see the day when 1.-The old es-
tabliShed forces" will collapse.
Mr.. Sukarno spoke at a state
banquet given for him by Com
munist Chinese President Liu
Shao-chi, who ends a nine-day
state visit to this country to-
morrow. In turn Mr.. Liu re-
ferred to Indonesia and Red
China as comrades in arms"
Mr.. Sukarno generally refers
to nations in Asia and Africa
and the Communist bloc as
new emerging forces" He
Jumps most Of the West under
the "old established forces
description.
I'VE have shown to the worlc
THAT China and Indonesia can.
mot be ignored" Mr.. SukarnC
said. These two countries are
the pillars of the new emerging
forces. The peoples of Afro.
Asian and Latin American
countries and the peoples OF
Socialist countries are becom-
ing stronger and stronger. The
day will come that we will win
and the old established forces
will fall"
Mr.. Sukarno asserted that
"colonialists and neo-colonial-
lists are trying to undermine
these two countries"
Mr.. Liu said his visit has
shown the two countries are
comrades in arms" and their
friendship is unbreakable.
Both our countries persevere
in opposing imperialism and
colonialism and safeguarding
national independence and
state unity; actively support the
struggle Of the oppressed ma
tons for liberation, and re-
solutely defend Asian and world
peace" Mr.. Liu said. I'm the
struggle against our common
enemies our two countries have
consistently encouraged and
supported each other"
