THIRTY-FOUR PAGES" oot RUMBLES, SMOKE Volcanos Toll May Hit 1,500 TAGAYTAY, Philippines (AP)--The first rescue workers reached the blackened shores of the Taal volcano today and re- ported "a wide expanse of death and destruction." There was no immediate ca- sualty estimate from the first party to land on the 12-square- mile island in Lake Taal where the volcano erupted at 2:30 a.m. Tuesday. But officials feared a heavy toll among the island's 2,000 inhabitants and in villages along the lakeshore five to 10 miles from the island. (Reuters correspondent Mich- ael Marabut reported from Ma- nila that no clear picture of tise toll has yet emerged. He said unofficial estimates of the dead ranged from a few hundred to 1,500.) The party on the island re- ported the 984-foct volcano had subsided' to occasional rumbles and belches of smoke. But the local military commander or- dered the evacuation of all per- sons from low areas around Taal as a_ precaution against another eruption and an accompanying tidal wave. The Red Cross reported 184 land, 104 of them in the lake- side town of Agoncillo. Many were killed by the great chunks of rock the volcano hurled through the air. Some were en- veloped in hot ash and mud and died of burns. The Red Cross said many appeared to have died from fear and shock. The rescue group on the is- land reported. thigh-deep volca- nic mud, with two villages com- pletely submerged in debris. The party said half the island appeared covered with the vol- canic mud that rained for eight hours or more after the first eruption, Survivors who escaped across the lake during the erup- tion told of a rain of boulders that capsized frail fishing boats in which the island's farm fam- ilies fled, Frogmen began a search for bodies in the lake, parts of it 600 feet deep, Police said they believed at least 27 drowned when a boat full of refugees capsized. The Red Cross reported 55,000 persons huddled in evacuation camps or along the roadside. Most had fied from homes bodies recovered on the main- around the lake. Birth-Control By Both Pro, VATICAN CITY (CP)--Pro- gressive and conservative bish- ops alike joined today in an at- tack on the Vatican ecumenical council's draft statement on) birth control. Representatives of both groups opposed the text for var- fous reasons, but all generally denounced it as too vague, badly written, and too broad to) serve as a guide for -Roman Catholic couples. Neither side specifically the council to speak out for or gainst the use of con- traceptives, but. both progres- sives and conservatives de- manded a clear statement on the problems of fecundity and family planning.

(CP) -- White man's prosperity is causing cold weather, says Walking Eagle, an aged Indian chief who lives a simple life in the Rocky Mountain foothills. In town to make his annual winter we ather prediction, Chief Walking Eagle said the Great Manitou is angry about the riches of the white man. "The white man is getting too big and rich. Manitou does not like this and he gave bad weather." The outlook for winter: Much snow and cold weather with one big, though short- lived, blizzard and numerous small ones, But the chief said the win- ter will not be as bad as last year's, which was one of the worst in Alberta, and there will be an early spring. The chief's winter forecasts for the last five years have been fairly accurate. This prompted him to ask for pay: ment last year as a fore- caster. Car-Price Gap Should Narrow Through Pact, Gordon Thinks WASHINGTON (CP) -- The proposed auto production-shar-|* ing agreement with the United States is bound to have a "'re- ducing influence" on Canadian costs, Financé Minister Gordon said Tuesday.

A fast - talking southerner, Long argued that the agree- ment was sound. Evidence of solid support for the measure was underlined by the fact that only three of the 17-man Senate finance commit- tee, including Hartke, voted against the agreement. Long said it was a good deal for both countries. Referring to President Wal- ter Reuther of the United Auto Workers, Long said:* "He's a good labor leader.

PEKING (Reuters) -- China invited the United States to in- vade it tomorrow -- and be wiped out. Foreign Minister Marshal Chen Yi climaxed a marathon press conference here today by shouting: "I hope that tomorrow U.S. imperialists will come to China. "Let them come when they like. Let the Indians come with them. Let the British come too. Let the (Soviet) revisionist lead- ers in the north combine with them." For the U.S. and its '"'pup- pets" to send a few mil- lion troops would not be enough, Chen said Racing ahead of his interpre- ter and waving his arms, he said China would recognize no limits nor restrictions. in the pursuit of the Americans who would be "thoroughly wiped out." Chen's outburst came as he yal talking about Viet Nam 'and 'alleging that the U.S. used Hong , Kong as "an American base." In an unprecedented series of policy declarations in answer to questions from some of the 300 correspondents who attended his four-hour press conference, the Chinese leader: 1. Demanded an assurance of success in advance if China were to support the holding of the second Afro-Asian sum- mit conference in Algiers this fall. 2. Expressed the hope that more Asian and Frrican na- tions would develop their own nuclear weapons on a "'do-it- yourself basis." 3. Set two new stiff conditions for Peking's acceptance of a seat in the United Nations in the event of the Chinese Na- tionalists being voted out. These are: The world body would have to declare openly that the UN resolution con- demning China for aggression in the Korean war was wrong; all countries should review the ve.

But the be admitted and all "'imperial- ist puppet states' should be driven out, China, Chen said, has noth- ing to gain for itself at the Afro- Asian conference, but he feels that unless the parley's main purpose is an open condemna- tion of U.S. imperialism, it would be better to postpone the meeting "until conditions are right." The former army marshal said his hair had turned' white while he waited for the Amer- icans to attack China.

'Diefenbaker Listened Too Much To Yes-Men . BY EX-MINISTER PIERRE SEVIGNY TORONTO (CP)--John Diefen- baker misunderstood Quebec's aspirations although he wanted to be its friend, was suspicious of big business and tended to listen too much to advisers who agreed with him, a former cab- inet colleague said Tuesday night. Pierre Sevigny, who quit the cabinet in 1963 over the nuclear weapons issue, outlined his opin- fons about Mr. Diefenbaker as prime minister on the Pierre Berton television show. Mr. Berton was interviewing the former associate defence minister about his forthcoming book, This Game of Politics. Although he is critical of the party leader in the book, Mr. Sevigny has announced he will campaign for the party in the Nov. 8 election. During the interview Mr. Sev- figny said: --The failure to have French-Canadian 'second Mr. Diefenbaker's nomination at the 1956 leadership conven- tion was a "ghastly blunder' that could have cost the party its 1957 victory had the Lib- erals been smart enough to exploit the point. --French Canada would have been more pleased with Mr. Diefenbaker had either the justice or external affairs portfolios gone to a French- " Canadian. --Mr. Diefenbaker and his colleagues did more for Que- bec than had ever been done before, but he never under- stood that Quebec wanted a master plan and not a piece- meal approach to its prob- lems to bring the English and French nations together for a united Canada. ~The cabinet crisis of 1963, { a when Mr. Sedans: trade min- ister Hees and defence minis- ter Harkness resigned, could have been avoided if Mr. Dief- enbaker and his key lieuten- ants and the cabinet had had better communications. Mr. Sevigny said Mr. Diefen- baker was possibly too lonely a man, and it would have been better if persons who sincerely wanted to advise him had been able to reach him. Mr. Diefenbaker sought opin- ions but 'the frequently did not like too much people who dis- agreed with him or told him things that he didn't like to hear. "There were some people who actually surrounded him . with flattery and if he had lise tened possibly less to these peo- ple and a little more to those who were more objective and to the realists the end results 4 PIERRE SEVIGNY would have been different." One of his 'most serious faults," Mr. Sevigny said, was his holding "almost a resent- ment" against big business and the financial world because "'it stands to reason that if you get the powerful of the world behind you, the powerful of this world will influence those under them in your favor." He said at first traditionally- Conservative big business thought a great deal of Mr. Diefenbaker and "most of the time they got exactly what they wanted so they really had no reason to complain." But later an ifpression that Mr. Diefenbaker was against them was exploited by the oppo- sition and "steamrolled" so that between the 1962 and 1963 elec- tions business support switched to the Liberals to undermine the "truly. excellent -work" being done by the Consérvative gov- ernment. Mr. Diefenbaker, he said, was a forceful personality, easy to listen to but not easy to talk to. Mr. Sevigny said the Con- servative party will again be strong in Quebec, but only if Conservatives there go to Ot- tawa to champion certain ideas, principles and a philosophy to provide an alternative for Que- bec voters. He listed Mr. Hees, former justice minister Davie Fulton and Ontario's Premier Robarts as possible future leaders of the party and said at present it is a draw between Mr. Hees and Mr. Fulton. The show appeared on six private stations--CFTO Toronto, CFCF Montreal, CJCH_ Halifax, CFPL London, CJAY Winnipeg and CFCN Calgary. BROWNSBURG, Que. (CP)-- Conservative Leader Diefenba- ker has charged the Liberal government with trying to con- trol the thinking of Canadians. He said Tuesday night that a letter sent to private television station owners concerning the covereage of speeches by cab- inet ministers was "one of the most unusual things that has ever happened." "In all Canadian history," he said, "There has never been a more barefaced attempt to control the thinking of Cana- dians." Mr. Diefenbaker spoke to about 700 people who sat in a 45-degree auditorium to hear him assail the Liberal govern- ment for what he called a lack of concern for the average Ca- nadian. He said the letter sent out to television station owners offer- ing use of film clips of Liberal ministers contained this key paragraph: "The most important be about the six-week service is that the ministers and the peo- Police Probing Fortin 'Kidnap' BAIE.
