TWENTY-TWO PAGES 'ostage in Cash WITH SEVEN OTHERS Party Ousts Von Thadden BREMEN (Reuters) -- A power struggle in West Ger- many's extreme right-wing Na- tional Democratic party burst into the open today when eight leaders, including deputy party chairman Adolph von Thadden, were expelled only a few weeks before crucial state elections. Party Chairman Fritz Thielen also expelled executive mem- ber Otto Hess, a former Nazi storm trooper, and six other prominent party members all closely associated with von Thadden. The conflict was seen by po- litical observers in Bonn as be- tween moderate elements -- by Thielen and extrem- sts. Von Thadden, 44, son of an aristocratic Prussian family, was active in West German right-wing groups since the Sec- ond World War and was gener- ally regarded as the party's intellectual driving force. WAS NAZI COLONEL Hess, 57, was a_lieutenant- colonel in the Nazi storm troop- ers. He joined the Nazi party in 1930 and he was active as a district orator. He was still a powerful speaker on the hust- ings. The National Democrats, who won seats in the Bavarian and Hesse State Parliaments last year, counted on improving their performance in polls in Parents Blamed For Enrollments KINGSTON (CP)--The wishes of parents and not the rising "pirth rate are responsible for the rise in Canada's university population, says Dr. Geoffrey Davies, dean of arts and sci- ences at Brock University, St. Catharines. Dr. Davies told a meeting at Queen's University Thursday night that the major factor be- hind the increasing numbers of university students is the desire of more and more parents that their children have a university education. He said he disagreed with those who say increasing stu- dent enrolments mean a '"'dilut- ing of standards" and a "de- grading of the true purpose of the university." "There is little evidence . to suggest that increasing enrol- ments would mean a lowering of academic standards. The major task before education today is providing at least equal quality education for a growing number of students." Schleswig - Holstein and Rhine- land Palatinate April 23. But the row in the leadership would gravely prejudice their chances, the Bonn observers said. Thielen's decision to expel the eight politicians must be con- firmed within 60 days by the federal executive. The split in the leadership was triggered by a court ruling here this week that an election of von Thadden as party chief | in Lower Saxony was invalid. | All 26 Die In Latest Ohio Crash URBANA, Ohio (AP)--"Right over the tree tops, the plane ex- ploded. Debris shot into the air. I ran over to see if I could help." But when Francis H. McCaf- fery hurried out of his house to the wreckage of the Trans World Airlines jetliner near here Thursday there was no one to help. All 26 persons aboard were dead. It was Ohio's second airline crash in five days, and possibly was caused by a collision with a private plane. The DC - 9 disintegrated in flames as it approached Day- ton's Municipal Airport for a landing. The private plane, a twin - engined Beechcraft, fell from the sky at the same time. Only moments before, veteran airline pilot Karl B, Kohlsatt of Chicago had been warned of "unknown traffic" in his range by the Federal Aviation Agency. BODIES STREWN ABOUT Wreckage of the airliner and bodies of those aboard--21 pas- sengers and four crew members --were strewn through woods and gullies nine miles west of here. The private plane and its pilot, Cyrus H. Burgstahler, 54 of Detroit, fell two miles away. The crash was 45 miles south of where a Lake Central Air- lines turbojet went down in a snow-sleet storm Sunday night with 38 aboard. All were killed. The Civil Aeronautics Board, still investigating that tragedy, quickly turned to search for the cause of the second one. "We don't know what hap- pened yet,"' said Ed Slattery of the CAB. "No one saw it."

Georges P. Vanier, in death as in life, may have given the spirit of Canadian unity and the ecu- menical movement in the church an impetus that no other man could have done at this juncture in Canadian history. The 19th Governor-General of Canada, apparently, carefully prepared his own funeral with this in mind. Maurice Cardinal Roy, Arch- bishop of Quebec and Primate of the Roman Catholic Church in Canada, said at a funeral mass here Thursday that the old soldier had particularly asked to be buried here because he re- garded Quebec as the cradle of a great Canada. Gen. Vanier also looked upon his death not as something final, but only as an interlude '"'until the resurrection." In this spirit, both the mass here and the one in Ottawa, at Raymond Cummings, 35, a former Dallas cab driver has told the New Orleans, La., district attorney's of- fice he once drove David Ferrie and Lee Harvey Os- wald to Jack Ruby's night club in Dallas. Cummings, photographed yesterday at his Mesquite home, a sub- urb of Dallas, refused to talk to reporters. --AP Wirephoto Gen. Vanier's state funeral, were conducted in the new form, approved by the Vatican Council, emphasizing the posi- tive joy of life after death, rather than the negative of mourning. White vestments--the color of hope and of the purity of resur- rection--rather than black were worn by the clergy. The organ and choir played and sang tri- umphantly and joyously, and there was never a note of the dirge. PROTESTANTS INVITED And at the Vanier family's request, presumed to come from the general himself, Protestant clergymen were invited to ad- dress homilies and say prayers at both masses. With country-wide reporting, the significance was strong. Some churchmen here saw it as a step forward in the ecu- menical movement from the funeral for the late United States president, John F. Ken- nedy. When the low mass for the dead was said in Washington by Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston, it was the first time in North America that such a cere- mony was so widely reported and televised in Canada. The masses sung in Ottawa by Paul-Emile Cardinal Leger of Montreal and here by Cardi- nal Roy were high masses, in which the liturgy was sung, rather than said. They were concelebrated, . or collectively WASHINGTON (AP) -- Pres- ident Johnson says he'll take part in a Vietnam strategy con- ference later this month, "in the Pacific area somewhere." Johnson told a press confer- ence Thursday that he would be meeting in the next few weeks with Henry Cabot Lodge, U.S. ambassador in Saigon, and Viet Strategy Talks Gen. William Westmoreland, the American commander in Vietnam. But he wouldn't spe- cify the site except as being "in the Pacific area." The President also announced he is asking Congress to re- store immediately the seven- per-cent tax credit which busi- ness had been claiming until Peace Talks SAIGON .(AP)--A change of leadership in the Viet Cong's National Liberation Front to smooth the way for direct peace talks with the United States was reported today by anti-Commu- nist allied intelligence sources. Huynh Tan Phat, deputy chairman of the Viet Cong's political arm, has replaced Ngu- yen Huu Tho as chairman, these sources said. Reports of a change in the NLF's high command have cir- culated in Saigon government circles for more than a month, the sources said. Interrogation of Viet Cong prisoners and de- fectors and captured Commu- nist documents appear to con- firm the reports. Replacement of Tho by Phat was "for the purpose of treating directly with the United States'"' in peace negotiations, the sources said, They added that the NLF plans no place at the Cong Shifts Leadership Seen Nearer table for Premier Nguyen Cao Ky's Saigon government, American intelligence sources offered two possible reasons for the switch. KNOWN FIGURE They said Phat might appear more acceptable to the Ameri- cans at the bargaining table. Tho is a widely-kn6wn Commu- nist figure in South Vietnam with strong ties to Hanoi. Phat is known mostly to party in- tellectuals and is relatively un- known outside Communist circles. Another possible reason, the sources said, is that Hanoi wants Phat to negotiate so he can be discarded as a scapegoat if talks break down. Tho would retain real power. Phat now is believed to be at NLF headquarters in Viet Cong- controlled areas of South Viet- nam or--mbre likely--in Cam- bodia.
