They were still being held today. Soviet embassy officials said the diplomats were embassy counsellor Boris Voronine and press attache Yuri Miakotnykh. | Eyewitnesses said Voronine and Miakotnykh refused to al- low the Congolese to search their car on their return from Brazzaville, capital of the for- mer French Congo, across the Congo River.

Soviet embassy officials said the Congolese also had cut the telephone and electric supply to the luxury apartment where the 100 - man Soviet mission lives and works. SEIZE DOCUMENTS Sources close to the Congo- lese government hinted that "highly compromising" docu- ments had been seized from the two arrested diplomats. Gendarmes stood guard out- side the embassy building Tues- day night, refusing to allow call- ers to enter.

A woman was killed and six other persons, including a po- liceman, were wounded today as fighting spread from the workers' suburbs to El Silencio, a district of modern business buildings. Coming on the heels of Vene- zuela's worst day of terrorism Tuesday, the new casualties put the two-day toll at 20 killed and 76 wounded, prevented from telephoning his embassy for help. Finally, the Congolese forced open the car doors and grabbed the Rus- sians? feet. The diplomats strug- gled but were dragged out of the car. They were then thrown bod- ily into a Congolese army truck, When they tried to get off the truck, the two men were beaten with clubs, the eyewitness said. Another eyewitness said one of the diplomats tried to push a document inside his shirt, a Congolese grabbed his collar and ripped off his shirtfront. President Romulo Betancourt remained in his office through- out the night, directing the roundup of the terrorists by po- lice, the army and National Guard.

Accordingly, he said, new plants will. need as many men as existing plants, Many other industrialists, he guessed, are reaching a similar, conclusion. Recent' interviews with U.S. busi and ists un- covered a strong feeling that unemployment will not increase materially and that the present burden may not be so heavy after all. "An economy as strong as ours can carry the present load (about 4% per cent of the labor force is jobless) without struc- tural damage if the politicians will merely keep quiet," says Vice-President Benjamin Stacey 30 per cent of his work force-- as they have in the general pop- ulation locally. "But as we go to new ma- chines," Johnson says, "the colored are losing a_ little ground, I'm. afraid." They tend®to have the kind of low-skill jobs that are being eliminated, he says. President George Meany of the AFL-CIO has termed auto- mation a curse, saying industry is in a "mad race' to install push-button machines without proper regard for the impact of society, Some other businessmen say it is easy to exaggerate . the job-destroying threats of auto- mation. Chrysler's Townsend says his firm has many operations that could run almost unaided by hu- mans. But humans are by far the cheapest way to make the changes required to provide the variety of style and model car- buyers demand, Chrysler Calls Halt To Automation Trend Accordingly, Townsend said if Chrysler sets up a plant to make 960 cars a day, it will use at least as many workers-- about 3,500--as it uses in such plants now, Furthermore, some business- men are taking a new look at the people previously displaced and added to the rolls of ug- employment. There were fears that these workers would be left behind, even in booming times, because of low education, low skills or racial disadvantages. However, many of them have' been snapped up in the current auto. upsurge, says Woodrow Ginsberg, research director for the AFL-CIO United Auto Work- ers Union in Detroit. Dean George Schultz of the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business says a new Fort Worth, Tex., program shows "'it pays to make an ef- pig with disadvantaged . peo- ple."

But shoot- ings, bombings and teleph threats to merchants had a par- alyzing effect in the capital. Downtown streets were virtu- ally deserted and motorists who ventured out were bedeviled by tacks and nails strewn during th night by terrorists. Striking in various parts of Caracas, terrorists burned four buses and hurled a bomb at the interior ministry, which con- trols the police. Thebomb ex. ploded harmlessly in the street, Betancourt hopes to become Venezuela's first democratically elected president to serve out a five-year term. His term ends next March. The constitution prohibits Betancourt from suc- ceeding himself. But his demo- cratic Action Party's candidate, Raul Leoni, virtually is assured of defeating his six in the presidntial race. Policeman Admits Arrest VIENNA (AP)~A 52-year-old Vienna policeman has been sus- pended from duty after admit- ting he was one of the Nazi of- ficers who arrested Anne Frank and her family in wartime Am- sterdam, the government dis- closed today. The interior ministry identi- fied the man as Karl Silber- bauer. _An investigation into his war- time activities. is under way. The 12-year-old Jewish girl, who described her life in hiding in an Amsterdam. in a moving diary, subsequently died in a Nazi concentration camp. The diary was: found by her father, Otto Frank, the family's only survivor, after the war. It achieved additional fame as a play and film. Silberbauer's. suspension ap- parently came after the Aus- trian government acted on a tip from Dr. Simon Wiesenthal, di- rector of the Jewish Research Centre in. Vienna. In Amsterdam, the. Dutch newspaper Het Frije Volk quoted Wiesenthal as saying the policeman was a member of the Nazi security service at The Hague during the war. He fled The Netherlands after Germa- ny's capitulation, Wies- enthal said. Wiesenthal has been credited with tracing Adolf Kichmann and scores of other Nazi war criminals, of Boston's First National Bank. There is a vigorous dissenting view. Many see a growing unem- ployment among the young un- skilled that threatens dangerous racial and social upheavals, It could also, they warn, destroy this decade's brightest economic hope: The push that's supposed to. come when the post-war baby crop starts buying houses, cars and appliances.
