U.S. Won't Slow Moon-Shot Plans WASHINGTON (AP) -- It's full speed ahead for the U.S. program to land a man on the moon in this decade. That's the way American space officials greeted the news from Moscow that Soviet Pre- mier Khrushchev apparently has pulled his country out of amy moon race. Senator Clinton P. Anderson, chairman of the Senate space committee, agreed. 'First of all, I do not believe we should develop our space programs on} the basis of the press state- ments of Mr. Khrushchev," the New Mexico Democrat told The Associated Press. However, there were signs elsewhere that the Russian leader's move may provide am- munition for American critics of heavy space spending. In an interview Satur- day night in Moscow with tour- ing journalists, Khrushchey de- clared: "At present we are not plan- ning manned moon flights. . . .

Well, I wish them success. And we shall watch how they fly there, how they come to earth, or rather come to moon, and, this is the main thing, how they take off and return home. ,. ." The reaction in Washington was varied. James E. Webb, administra- tor of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, said Khrushchev's statement "could have the effect of strengthen- ing this country's desire to go ahead with the moon program." Dr. George E. Mueller, direc- tor of. NASA's manned space- flight programs, said the Amer- ican moon. effort should con. tinue independent of any action Russia might take. Edward C. Welsh, executive secretary of the National Aero- nautics and Space Council, said the Russians "have sensed some slackening of support for the moon program here and have made a stratezjc move to \capitalize on this siuation." The council is a top administra- tion advisory group, ore centre of Tindouf in the Al- gerian-controlled Sahara, The announcement by Infor- mation Minister Abdel Hadi Boutaleb indicated the Moroc- can Army troops have pene- trated deep into the territory contested by the two countries. According to most international maps, Tindouf is some 60 miles insid. the Algerian Sahara. "Our troops are not pushing on," Boutaleb said. 'All I can power talks at Bamako, Mali, Boutaleb replied: "We have no intention of tak- ing Tindouf by arm; but by ne- gotiations."" Morocco's King Hassan I and Algerian President Ahmed Ben Bella are scheduled to meet Tuesday in Bamako in an ef- fort to settle the border dispute. The leaders of the war- lring North African neighbors 'will be joined in Bamako; the SAIGON (AP)--The Un mis- sion to Soutir'Viet Nam dis- carded its restricted govern- ment itinerary today in an at- tempt to counter the Diem re- gime's effors to keep opposi- tion Buddhists from the fact- finders, The UN team announced it would decide for itself who it will see in its investigation of Buddhist charges of government persecution, Since its arrival last Thurs- day, the UN mission has been brie'ed by President Ngo Dinh Diem and his powerful brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu, and pro-govern- ernment Buddhist leaders.

(AP) -- Red China's Foreign Minister Chen Yi was quoted today as saying it will be "several years" before his country can test an atomic bomb. Kyodo néws service said the Chinese vice premier made this statement in Peking to visiting Japanese newspaner men. Chen was reported to have said that the delay in testing was due to the backward state of China's industrial base 'and that it will be some time before ing nuclear power, because without it China would remain a second- or third-class: nation. He said China is close to res- olution of the problems of atomic weapon production. China's objective is, he added, to be equipped with atomic bombs, missiles and supersonic the four - power conference to seek an end to the fighting. But the attitudes of both sides left little hope for a quick set- tlement. Ben Bella was expected to demand unconditional with- drawal of the Moroccans from the disputed frontier, Moroccan officials said there would be no yielding of land the kingdom considers part of its national heritage. Moroccan infantry units Sun- day chased the remnants of three Algerian battalions from Hassi Beida, a muddy water hole clustered by palm trees north of the ore - rich Tindouf Valley. Two U.S. television teams at the front confirmed the Moroccan victory. Moroccan headquarters said 60 Algerians were killed and 76 were captured. The Moroccans claimed they captured 95 weap- ons, mostly of Soviet and Czech origin. The Algerians, who had borne four days of attack, apparently withdrew to Tinfouchy, 30 miles to the south. The Moroccans said they ex- pected the Algerians to attempt a counter-attack next week. Algeria was bolstered by a shipment of Soviet-made arms from Cuba and the imminent arrival of an Egyptian para- trooper unit withdrawn from Yemen by Ben Bella's ally, President Nasser of the United Arab Republic. Forty Soviet medium tanks and some crated MiG jet fight- ers already have arrived in Al- geria aboard a Cuban ship, Western diplomatic sources said. More Soviet tanks and planes are ex pected, Three Egyptian ships are en route to the Algerian port of Oran, Full Nuclear Arsenal Set As China's Goal will not affect China's domestic or foreign policy. With or with- out bombs, it will refuse to kneel before the United States.

It will be at least Wednesday before a second shaft, wide enough to bring them up, can be completed, rescue officials said. During the night rescuers of- fered the men a deck of play- ing cards. But they declined the offer, explaining that only two of the three were card players. "We lack the third. man for skat," they said, Skat 1s a pop- ular German card game that requires a minimum of three players. At 6-a.m, they received warm tea, whole meal bread and vit- amin tablets. At 9 a.m. porridge and egg for each man were to go down the shaft. Chicken was on the luncheon menu. Doctors prohibited cigarettes Three Men Die In Ship's Hold | PORT STANLEY, Ont. (CP) |--Three Italian seamen were killed by fumes aboard an oil tanker early today, two of them as they tried to rescue' their shipmate. Their bodies were found by crew members wearing oxygen masks who entered a_ coffer East River to search for them. Dead are boatswain Naso An- tonino, about 60; chief fireman Giliberto Ciro, 45, and fireman Ederi Guiseppe, 25. Capt. Liborio Teresi said An- tonio had been given instruction to remove a hatch over the cover dam to release gases in- side it so workmen could repair a faulty valve. He said Antonino must have disobeyed orders and entered the coffer dam, When he did not reappear, Ciro an Guiseppe went after him. They did not return, It took crew members using a sling more than half an hour to remove the bodies from the dam, 10 feet under the deck. The East River, owned by the International Navigation cor- poration, anchored in Lake Erie two miles off this port 24 miies south of London Sunday night and started discharging 5,200,- 000 gallons of fuel oil.
