The new pontiff addressed greetings to the world's peoples, nations, leaders and govern- ments at a special audience in the Consistorial Hall for the dip- lomatic corps accredited to the Vatican. He pledged that the Vatican under his reign would not inter- fere in "the affairs or im the ised non - interference in tem- poral affairs of the world's na- tions, he said that "'one of the duties of the Pope--to which our unforgettable predecessor (Pope John) conferred a singu- lar splendor--is to contribute to the affirmation of . . . peace founded as (Pope John) pro- claimed with authority on the four pillars of truth, justice,| love and freedom."

The 50-year-old society osteo- path, a key figure in the Pro- fumo scandal, again was re- fused bail in the Marlborough Street magistrate's court. He went back to jail to await a full hearing Friday. Nature of the new charges one involving abortion and an- other, accusing Ward of procur- ing a woman identified as "Miss X,"" emerged in legal fencing between defence amd govern- ment lawyers. Ward was arrested June 8 on charges of living off the earn- ings of prostitution. The prose- cution announced at his first court appearance that it' had more serious charges against Ward. Rumors immediately be- gan flying that the charges might involve security or black- mail, but Ward's lawyers said the latest accusations concerned neither.

RECALL AIRMEN? British newspapers reported that two U.S. Air Force men have been recalled from Britain to Washington for questioning. The reports said they were Airman Charles Lee Wright of Mount Vernon, Ill., and Sgt. George Hopkins of Bellaire, Ohio. Both were -stationed at Air Force headquarters at Ruislip, west of London, and both had known Christine. The two Americans were shipped out of Britain Friday after being questioned at Rius- lip. They will be interrogated in the Pentagon, papers reported. Christine has said she once spent some time in the south of France with a high - ranking U.S. naval officer. Her friend, Mandy Rice-Davies, 18, says she was on weekending terms with an American diplomat in Paris. The pro-Labor Daily Mirror gave its entire front page today to denying the rumor that roy- alty is mixed up in the affair. Under the headline 'Prince Philip and the Profumo scan- dal" it said: "The foulest rumor which 'is being circulated about the Pro- fumo scandal has involved the Royal Family. "The name mentioned in this rumor has been Prince Philip's. "The rumor is utterly un- founded. "The Daily Mirror is able to- day to state the facts about any association which has taken place between members of the Royal Family and Stephen Ward, the man who is now in custody accused of living wholly or partly on the earnings of prostitution. "Ward is an osteopath and as an osteopath he has met many famous people in London soci- ety. "Ward is also an artist of con- siderable ability. j "As an artist he was in con- tact with three members of the Royal Family and drew their portraits, members Of - the' Royal Family were: "Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, "Princess Marina and i cess Alexandra. "Each of the three gave a private sitting to artist Stephen Ward. 'Apart from these private sit- tings there were no further con- tacts between Dr. Ward and the members of the Royal Family concerned."

The FBI agent escorting him and oth- ers in background are not identified. (AP Wirephoto) In Killing Of Evers JACKSON, Miss. (CP-AP)-- White man Byron de La Beck- with was held in Jackson Jail today charged with the murder of Negro integration leader Medgar Evers. Still unaccounted for in the killing of the 37-year-old Evers were "others unknown," charged along with Beckwith in a separate federal complaint made public after the FBI ar- rested Beckwith Saturday night. Beckwith saw action in the Pacific in the Second World War with the U.S. Marines. Beckwith, a 42-year-old for- mer tobacco salesman and more recently a chemical fertilizer sales 'agent, from Greenwood, Miss., talked with his partners, lawyers Hardy Lott and Stanny Rejected OTTAWA (CP)--The Supreme Court of Canada in a 3 to 2 de- cision today rejected an appeal by two Ontario gamblers and a former provincial police officer against. their convictions on a charge of conspiring to unlaw- fully obtain information from a provincial police constable. Chief Justice Robert Tascher- eau, Mr. Justice Wilfred Jud- son and Mr. Justice Gerald Fauteux ruled against the ac- quittal of gamblers Vincent Feeley, 38, and Joseph McDer- mott, 41, and former OPP con- stable Robert Wright, 31, or a new trial for the three men. Mr. Justice J. R. Cartwright and Mr. Justice Emmett Hall dissented and would have acquitted the accused. Feeley and McDermott, des- cribed by the Roach royal com- mission on crime as shrewd, evil, cunning men, and Wright were sentenced by the Supreme Court of Ontario to 18 months definite and six months indefin-. ite. The two gamblers and Wright based their appeal on their ac- Gamblers' Appeal By Court quittal on a charge of conspir- ing to give money jo Constable George Scott to interfere with the administration of justice by providing information on pend- ing raids on gambling estab- lishments. John J. Robinette, counsel for Feeley and McDermott, argued before the court in March that this charge was substantially the same as the one on which the accused were found guilty. He said if the three men were not guilty of conspiring to give money to Scott they also were not guilty of conspiring to unlawfully obtain information from him. '*... Where a person has been acquitted by a court of com- petent jurisdiction, the acquit- tal is a bar to all future pro- ceedings to punish him for the same matter . . ." Mr. Robin- nette said. However, the majority of the court rejected Mr. Robinette's argument and adopted the rea. sons of the Ontario Court of Ap- peal which earlier upheld the convictions.

Pierce said police questioned Beck- with, but did not elaborate. One of 15,000 telescopic sights and a fingerprint on it led the FBI to Beckwith at Greenwood. They found five of the imported Japanese six - power Goldwin Hawk sights went to Mississippi, all to a Grenada gun dealer. One was traced to Beckwith, a gun collector, whom the FBI questioned Friday night without getting any answers, Saturday night at a meeting arranged by Greenwood lawyer Yerger Moorhead, a relative of Beckwith, FBI agents arrested Beckwith under provisions of the 1957 Civil Rights Act, "Beckwith aod others un- known conspired to injure, op- press and intimidate Medgar Evers in the free exercise and enjoyment of rights and privi- leges secured to him by the con- stitution," the FBI said. Evers was state field secre- tary for the National Associa- tion for the Advancement of Colored People. Capt. Ralph Hargrove, chief of the Jackson police identifica- tion bureau, fingenprinted Beck- with Sunday and found again his prints matched the one on 28 Reds Executed By Iraqi Premier DAMASCUS, Syria (AP)--An Iraqi fiting squad has™executed 28 Communists charged with staging a 1959 bloodbath in the northern oil city of Kirkuk that took 'more than 100 lives, Bagh- dad radio says. Earlier Iraqi President Abdel Salam Aref denied'in a letter to Soviet Premier Khrushchev that three women had been sen- tenced. to death for Communist activities. Khrushchev had ap- pealed to Aref to commute the reported sentences the scope attached to a .30-cali- bre rifle that fired the fatal shot. It .was Hargorve who first discovered the latent . print--in- visible to the eye but brought out by chemicals. Detectives discovered the gun June 12, about 10 hours after Evers was shot down in his driveway, im a _ honeysuckle thicket near where -officers be- lieve the shot was fired. The scope was attached. Beckwith, a member of the die-hard segregationist Citizens Council and described as a man who hated Negroes, faces death in the state's gas chamber if convicted on the murder charge. His lawyers also are mem- bers of the Citizens Council, a3 are the mayor, commissioners and most prominent persons in Greenwood. Greenwood, a city of 23,000 some 97 miles north of the capi- tal at Jackson, is the seat of the Leflore County where Ne- groes outnumber whites nearly 2 to 1. It has been hub of a drawn-out Negro voter registra- tion drive that has brought bit- ter repercussions. An unofficial truce now pre- vails. The Negroes stopped mass marches, and officials said they would not hinder small groups from registering. State District Attorney Bill Wailer said Beckwith would go before the Hinds County grand jury convening July 1 and that he would have a preliminary hearing if he requested it. He appeared calm after state officials lodged the murder charge against him. Attorney - General Robert Kennedy said there was more evidence to link Beckwith, who was wounded by Japanese fire as he hit the beach on Tarawa, with the murder, although he could not reveal it. Rewards offered for informa- tion leading to the arrest and conviction of the killer amounted to more than $22,500. It was understood most of the reward offers were provisional, that they would be paid if the information came from others than law enforcement officers. Liberals OTTAWA (CP)--Walter Gor- don fights for personal political survival in the Commons today. A few hours later the minority government faces a confidence vote. The rookie Liberal finance minister is scheduled to make his first major speech since the June 13 budget presentation. In the interim a crackling political storm has erupted over his use of three Toronto businessmen as budget-writers, Mr. Gordon, 57, will be the leadoff speaker in the fourth day of the six-day budget debate. He is due to begin his speech im- mediately after the daily ques- tion period which starts shortly after 2:30 p.m. EDT, and usu- ally lasts an hour. He will review and defend the budget proposals--some of them already under heavy fire--and is expected to make a reply to the fierce opposition attacks which dominated the first three days of the debate, ASKED TO QUIT Opposition MPs shouted for Mr. Gordon's resignation over three main issues: 1.

He is expected to outline relief measures for builders or individuals who con- tracted for projects at fixed prices before the extra tax was announced in the budget, Mr. Gordon's extension of the sales tax to building materials was one of the two most criti- cized budget moves, It shared top billing with a 30-per-cent "takeover" tax on large sales of stocks in Canadian compan- jes to foreign investors. This was the tax. that Mr. Gordon withdrew Wednesday. The slim, moustached finance minister spent the weekend at his Toronto home preparing his budget defence which will fea- ture the employment and pro- duction gains he expects from the tax plans, But if he hopes to silence the opposition assault he also will have to. tackle effectively the questions about his post-budget actions as well as the dominant issue of his budget helpers. sity Woe cn anley oj . a Company; Ma O'Connell 2.

Prime Minister Pearson has so far stood firm beside his fi- nance minister, rejecting de- mands for his removal and quashing an anticipated Com- mons censure move by insisting that such a censure vote would involve confidence in the gov- ernment. Because none of the opposi- tion parties wants to defeat the government and force a new election, this appears to have effectively stalled formal cen- sure action. By Friday, however, reliable informants were predicting that Mr. Gordon's term in the fi- nance portfolio is just about over and that Mr. Pearson will demote him to another cabinet job after the budget furor dies down. That could be the begin- ning of the end of Mr. Gordon's political career. These informants said the Gordon controversy has raised suspicion and doubt in the busi- ness world and no finance min- ister can continue very long once that has happened, Only a slim chance remains that Mr. Gordon can reverse the situa- tion, they said, Renewal of the Gordon issue overshadows the vote tonight at 9:45 p.m. EDT on a non-confi- dence motion presented last week by the Conservatives.

In a June 14 letter to Con- gress, Kennedy said govern- ment outlays for the supersonic plane project would be limited to a maximum of $705,000,000, In addition he said private. aircraft manufacturers would be expected to contribute at least based on Mr. Gordon and his $250,000,000 to the project. Kenned BONN (Reuters) -- President Kennedy today issued a call for "a great international effort in the 1960's for peace." Speaking at a ceremony set- ting up a West German Peace Conps, the president said: "I hope these Peace Corps men of America and the Ger- man development 'service will be joined by representatives of dozens of other free countries in a great international effort in the 1960s for peace." Kennedy, West German Chan- cellor Adenauer and President Heinrich Luebke all took part in the ceremony founding the German service, which is mod- elled on the American corps. The American leader, who had just come from a two-hour private talk with Adenauer, said the U.S. Peace Corps has "given us an opportunity to har- ness the idealism which is, I think, in.all free people." y Asks Peace Effort "Western Europe and the United States really are islands of prosperity in a sea of poy- erty," Kennedy said, but the Corps gave Americans a chance to assist not only in the "cold field of economic help" but also 'no the field of human relations, MET TWO HOURS K dy and Ad were alone except for their interpret- ers during their morning meet- ing, which lasted nearly two hours.
