By DIAL TORGERSON SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (AP) A fine which twice burned into the hillside suburbs of Santa Barbara tured away today and blazed - into lightly populated inland vailleys. It was the third time the fire seemed to be moving away from Santa Barbara, Finemen couldn't say whether it could turn and hit the city again. The fire now has blackened 40,000. acres, killed one man and injured 36 others, alll fire- fighters. It has destroyed 78 homes and buildings, including the lux- urious homes of Avery Brun- dage, president of the Interna- tional Olympic. Committee, and Dr. Robert Maynard.

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM MOVE By JOHN ORGAN VATICAN CITY (Reuters) -- An atmosphere of dissension hung over. the Vatican ecumen- ical council today on the ques- tion of religious freedom. During. a debate on a, draft declaration on religious liberty Thursday, Fraziskds Cardinal Koenic of Vienna urged the council to speak out against suppression of religion in aithe- ist countries. ' The Austrian prelate hailed the proposed declaration as "'al- together acceptable."' Bui a hard core of conserv-! ative churchmen, chiefly from Spain and Italy, claimed. the declaration would grant equal- ity of rights to all religions, both true and false. They argued that such can have no rights" and called for a_ revision of the draft. Bishop Jose Lopez Ortiz of Tuy, Spain, urged the deletion from the text of a passage de- claring the state incompetent to judge religious. In a clear reference to the position of traditional Roman Catholic countries such as Spain, he said the passage "in- sinuated'"' that a government did not have the right to de- clare itself Catholic if it so wis. Thursday's critics spoke in a} personal capacity.

By 7 p.m. Wednesday the fine had covered 2,000 acres, but the air at dusk was cool, and the fire was again moving inland. Again the winds struck.
