Rusk Arrives
GENEVA (/P) Secretary of State Dean Ruslc arrived
yesterday for the 14-nation conference on Laos amid doubts
that the sessions will get under way on schedule Friday.
Rusk said he would take part in the conference “if infor

Rusk, as well as other Western officials, have declared
Further Evidence
Labels Eichmann
Nazi Extremist
JERUSALEM (/P) Adolf
Eichmann was portrayed, yester
day as a man who surpassed Adotfj
Hitler in relentless pursuit of the
Nazi goal to exterminate Euro
pean Jews. But evidence intro
duced in his trial showed he metj
with a big failure in little Den
mark.
Assistant ' prosecutor Gavriel
Bach pvoduced evidence that oven
Hitler and army
generals objected at one stage to
Eichmahn’s single-minded hunt
for Jews in Nazi-occupied Europe".
This was halfway through
World War II when Eichmann ad-i
vocated that Dutch half-Jews be
considered full Jews for purposes
of extermination.
Bach submitted documentary;
evidence that Hitler and the army I
opposed the suggestion on grounds j
that if carried through it eventual-'
ly would mean that thousands oL
quarter-Jews servirs in the Ger
man army would be lost to mill-;
tary service. j
Bach said Eichmann’s plan!
showed that "in certain points he;
was more extreme in his ap-j
proach to the Jewish question '■
than Hitler himself." j
The story of Eichmann's failure;
in Denmark was told by a blond;
Danish Jew who came to Israel;
in 1946. It was in startling con-1
trast to weeks of evidence that!
the Nazi campaign against Jews!
took its ghastly toll without rc-j
sistance in country after coun-j
try seized in the Nazi blitzkrieg.J
Werner David Melchior, 35, aj
journalist and son of Copenha-j
gen's chief rabbi, testified that;
the Danish people never gave upj
their interest in the fate of Jews
deported from Denmark.
Melchoir testified that arsonists
who attempted to set fire to a
Jewish synagogue were jailed by
Danish authorities. 1
Laotian Cease-fire Questioned
VIENTIANE, Laos (/P) Three
key executives of the once-re
buffed control commission sought
an answer yesterday at the Com
munist - neutralist headquarters
in Xiong Khouang to the big
question: Is the Laotian cease
fire really effective?
“We are going up to make con
tact and find out how the situa
tion is,” said Samar Sen of In-;
dia, the commission chairman, be-j
fore departing aboard a French
airline plane. )

unless there is a real cease-fire
between Communist and anti
communist forces.
Three leading members of an
Indian-Canadian-Polish control
commission, whose job is to certi
fy that a cease-fire is in effect,
finally left for headquarters of
Communist and neutralist rebel
headquarters at Xieng Khouang
in Laos yesterday after being re
buffed on Tuesday.
Random fighting continued, but
there has been no serious' out
break for a week.
Despite uncertainly as to when
the conference may open. Rusk
was the fourth delegate to ar-
; rive.
j He was preceded by Soviet For
eign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko,
who said the Soviet Union would
make “every effort to solve the,
Laotian problem justly and with
out procrastination and stamp
'out a hotbed of war danger.”
Gromyko was followed by
; Chang Yen, secretary-general of
1 the Red China delegation. Chi

was expected later.

JVan Khiem. foreign minister of
(North Viet Nam, also arrived. In
the same plane was a delegation
headed by Information Minister
[Quinim Pliolsena from the neu
tralist Laotian faction of Prince
iSouvanna Phouma.
Aside from the United States,
I Britain, France, the Soviet Un
; ion, Rod China, North and
i South Viet Nam and Laos, these
countries have been invited:
Canada, Thailand, Poland, Bur
ma, India and Cambodia.
A spokesman in London said
Britain hopes for confirmation of
the cease-fire in time for the con
ference to get under way on
schedule.
"We are.'going ahead with plans
to attend,” he said.
Attendance of Thailand and
Cambodia remained problemati

they had no instructions and de

Nixon Blasts
Kennedy's
'Frontier'
COLUMBUS, Ohio (/P) -
Richard M. Nixon wound up
his first political tour since the
presidential election yesterday
with a blast at the Kennedy
administration’s domestic pol
icies.
"The shape of the New Frontier
is becoming clearer and clearer,”
the former vice president said in
a speech prepared for a Republi
can fund-raising rally.
“With every new program and
every new proposal, slogans
aside, it turns out to be pretty
familiar territory after all: a re
turn to the depressing old fron
tier of the late ’3os and to the
inevitable failures of a policy of
systematic government interven
tion into the American economy.
“It turns out to be the old worn
out country of government con
trols, pump-priming, high taxes,
higher deficits and economic
stagnation.”
Indeed, Nixon doesn’t like
much of anything about the new
administration, including the slo
gan it uses to describe itself.
As far as Nixon is concerned,
he has said the words “New
Frontier” for the last time.
While he was handing out texts
of his speech he told reporters:
“Some of my colleagues constant
ly deride and joke about ‘New
Frontiers.’ This is a mistake. I’m
only going to talk about old fron
tiers, starting today.”
Nixon contends that because
the election was so close, and be
cause the House is so conserva
tive, President Kennedy has had
to tone down some of his econom
ic programs.
“That is why the congressional
elections of 1962 are so vitally im
portant,” Nixon said. Sizable
Democratic gains, he said, will be
followed by "increased spending,
higher taxes and more federal
government control in the lives
of every American.”
Here Nixon reverted to a theme
he has been hammering away at
ever since he began his tour, a
week ago in Chicago .
He contends that at a time

national security, Kennedy is ask

tion, welfare, housing and public
works.
been no major battles.
Most officials in Vientiane
tended to attribute random fight
ing to the usual Laotian confu
sion.
There was, however, concern
over how the warring rightist
government, the Pathet Lao and
the neutralist camp will be able
to subordinate political differ
ences and form a coalition gov
ernment. Irt. the long run this was
felt to be a danger point one
that may have to be settled at
Geneva.

Air France announced the four
engine Super Constellation car
ried 69 passengers and 10 crew
members after an earlier state
ment had listed 69 aboard.
The airline identified the
Americans as the wife, three
children and mother of Alan Lu

Bangui, capital of the Central Af
rican Republic. Most of the other
victims were French or African.
It was the worst crash in the
history of the African continent.
Air France said visibility was
unlimited with cloudless skies
at the time of the crash. The
plane had undergone a thor
ough inspection April 29, the
airline said.
Search planes spotted the
wreckage of the Supc: Constella
tion in rolling sand dunes about
450 miles southeast of Algiers.
Radio reports said the plane
was completely smashed and
there was no sign of life. Air
line officials were unable fo
give any immediate indication
of the cause of the crash.
