In animal studies, the entry said, tolbutamide in massive doses has been shown to kill or deform the fetus. "It is not known whether or not this finding is applicable to human subjects," Upjohn said. "Clinical studies thus far are quite limited and experimental. Therefore, the use of Orinase is not recommended for the management of diabetes when complicated by pregnancy." Axocitttd Prm THE BODY of Hendrik Verwoerd, prime minister of South Africa, is carried on a stretcher down the steps of the Parliament building in Cape Town yesterday after he was stabbed to death, apartheid." Verwoerd recovered and Pratt later hanged himself in a mental hospital.

Verwoerd had returned to the Parliament from lunch yesterday and was sitting in his accustomed seat near the high, square speaker's chair, when Stafendas approached, wearing the blue and green-striped uniform of a parliamentary messenger. Officials said Stafendas lived alone In a one-room apartment in the ramshackle Woodstock area of Cape Town. First reports said he had a police record, but there were no other details. Other messengers said Stafendas, born in Laurenco Margues, Portuguese Mozambique, was a naturalized citizen who had gone to work as a messenger Aug. 1.

He spoke several languages including English, Portuguese, Greek, German and some Afrikaans. A 45-year-old bachelor, he liked to read the Bible and was constantly quoting scriptural passages. They said he was forever asking colleagues for interpretations of Old Testament passages that deal with God-inspired killings. But there was nothing biblical about his frenzied shouts. "Where is that bastard?" Stafendas screamed as MPs grabbed him.

"I will get that Only minutes before he had walked up to the tall, graying Verwoerd who started out of his seat as though to accept a message. Continued from First Page known. The police are engaged in a thorough Investigation." The prime minister died at the peak of his power. Earlier this year his party had swept back into power with the biggest majority in the history of South Africa's Parliament. Despite tendencies of inflation, the economy was booming.

Only two months ago he had won a major victory in the World Court over the Southwest Africa case. Verwoerd had been expected to make a major policy statement yesterday on the future pattern of South Africa's relations with independent African states and on a still ill-defined African common market concept. Met African Chief Just five days ago he made history by meeting a Black African prime minister, Chief Leabua Jonathan of Basutoland, in Pretoria, the administrative capital. The world is never likely to know just what new vision Verwoerd had planned to outline. He rarely spoke from notes and he seldom took even fellow cabinet ministers into his confidence on his major policy theories.

This was the second attempt on his life. On April 9, I960, a white farmer named David Pratt shot Verwoerd twice in the head point-blank at a farm show. Pratt said he was "shooting the epitome of By MORTON MINTZ Lo Angflti Timn-Wiihlniton Pott Sirvici WASHINGTON The government has started criminal proceedings against the Upjohn a pharmaceutical manufacturer, based in part on a failure to publish a warning to physicians about the safety of a prescription drug when taken during pregnancy. The drug Upjohn's biggest seller-is Orinase, an oral anti-diabetes agent. Marketed since 1957, it is said by the company to have been used by more than 750,000 patients.

The misdemeanor action involves the entry about Orinase that Upjohn supplied for publication in the 1965 edition of Physician's Desk Reference, the most important source of prescribing information for more than 200,000 physicians. Maximum Penalty $1,000 The criminal information was filed Aug. 22 in federal court in Grand Rapids, Mich. The date for arraignment has not been set. In Kalamazoo, a spokesman for Upjohn said he had no comment on the plea that will be entered by the firm.

He said Orinase sales last year came to about 17 per cent of the firm's total sales of $243 million. Upjohn's 1965 net after-taxes income was $37 million. The maximum penalty the firm faces if convicted is a $1,000 fine. The criminal information charges that Orinase, which has the generic name tolbutamide, was mislabeled because the entry in the 1964 Physician's Desk Reference the same entry as used in some prior years "was not, as required by regulations, substantially the same as the labeling authorized" by the Food and Drug Administration. The Upjohn spokesman said that in a difference of opinion with FDA the firm considered the PDR entry to be paid advertising, which requires less complete information.

'Studies Limited and Experimental' A principal difference between the FDA-authorized brochure enclosed in packages and the 1965 PDR entry is the inclusion in the brochure, and in the 1966 PDR, of this statement: "The safety and the usefulness of Orinase during pregnancy have not been Rusk Is Hospitalized WASHINGTON (AP) Secretary of State Dean Rusk was admitted to Walter Reed Army Medical Center yesterday for treatment of what was called old-fashioned grippe. Robert J. McCloskey, State Department press officer, said Rusk is expected to remain in the hospital center a few days. Police Force Breaks Up, Mayor Directs Traffic wammifimmmm mmmmmmmmmmammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmim'i Continued from First Page also has agreed to cooperate until the police department can be reestablished. He said that the problem will be taken up today at a meeting of his police committee and the Hodgenville Ministerial Association.

Mayor Describes Cause The mayor, a former Kentucky Insurance commissioner who returned to his hometown three years ago. said the dispute stems from "the old small town factionalism." He said that there has been bickering since he took office in January, inheriting his Police Department from a previous administration. One of the former policeman, Keith, said yesterday that he quit because he was assigned to walk the night beat without having access to the town's police car. Mayor Thurman confirmed that he had disposed of a second police car "We didn't need It" and made Keith a "night watchman." Former Police Chief Benningfield would not comment except to say that "in little towns when they change the Commerce Agency Names Office Head AtMclaM Prm Jack Hoover, an industrial agent for the state Commerce Department, has been named manager of the department's new Louisville office by Commerce Commissioner Katherine Peden. He will serve industrial prospects considering sites in metropolitan Louisville and counties adjoining Jefferson.

Hoover is a Frankfort native and attended the University of Kentucky. ATTENTION GENTLEMEN I Repeated by Popular Demand! DAY CLEARANCE James Wine Given New Post In Washington Continued from First Page J. McCloskey announced his appointment yesterday, effective at once.

Wine had been serving as special assistant to the deputy undersecretary of state for administration. Wine's new post achieved notoriety last spring when it was reportedly offered to Schwarz, then director of the department's Bureau of Security and Consular Affairs. But he quit that job in protest over a plan to abolish the bureau. The plan was said to be a move to silence Schwarz, a vigorous advocate of a liberal immigration policy. Schwarz reputedly was offered the refugee post as an alternative.

He refused it. The department has since shelved the reorganization plan. However, it was said here yesterday that the bureau's Office of Refugee and Migration Affairs would soon be placed under the control of Wine. Wine is a native of Cabell County, W. Va.

He was county judge pro tern of Pike County, Kentucky, in 1949, U.S. commissioner for Eastern 'Kentucky from 1950 to 1952 and a special circuit judge in 1956. Was College Vice President He left Pikeville in 1957 to become vice president of Park College in Park-ville, Mo. He joined the National Council of Churches in 1959. He was appointed ambassador to Luxembourg in 1961 and served in the Ivory Coast from 1962 to 1965.

He has been with the department here since then. From 1961 until a few weeks ago, he was a member of the board of the U.S. Committee for Refugees. He is a former infantry officer. He and his wife, the former Emmy Lou Turck, have a daughter, Vi Wine, who lives in Louisville.

They have another daughter, Lisbeth Wine, and two sons. Charles Edwin and James Michael Wine, in Washington.

A second dagger was found on Stafendas. Wet-eyed spectators were ushered from the galleries ringing the chamber floor.

Verwoerd was carried on a stretcher to an ambulance. His bloodied face was covered. Wife Brought to Chamber The prime minister's wife Betsy, was brought into the chamber after the stabbing by a member who may have thought Verwoerd still was alive. She was quickly escorted out. Transport Minister Ben Schoeman announced the time of the stabbing as 2:20 p.m.

(7:20 a.m. EST). Death, he said, came at the same time. Messengers said Stafendas was "acting strangely" before the assassination. He decided to forego lunch and he refused to run an errand because "I have to do something." He entered the chamber through the member's entrance.

Stafendas is over six feet tall and weighs more than 200 pounds, as did Verwoerd. His gray hair is clipped short and he has numerous gold fillings in his teeth that flashed as he opened his mouth. His homeland, Mozambique, adjoins South Africa and nationalist guerrillas in the territory have been fighting for years with Portuguese troops trying to retain Portugual's colonial empire. A state funeral was to be held for Verwoerd, the nation's sixth prime minister. Flags were dropped to half-staff throughout the country and as night fell, people gathered around radios to hear acting Prime Minister Donges.

There is no television in the country. Verwoerd regarded it as "noxious." "They have killed our prime minister," a white bus conductor told reporters in Johannesburg. "Now I hope that Vorster takes over and shoots them all." Who did he mean? "The Communists, liberals, all of them," he replied. 4 Now ITwo Stores 203 SOUTH PRESTON 8017 PRESTON HIGHWAY MELGOLDE HAS A SECRET WATCH THIS SPOT THIS A ALL SHOES HAVE BEEN DRASTICALLY REDUCED MEL GOLDE'S VIM w-x.

Quell Riot tear gas to rout a group of bottle throwers, Negroes hurled volley after volley of bricks and bottles. At one point the police threw tear gas into a home which they said had been the center of some bottle throwing, and a mother, her five small children and their grandmother were forced into the street. The family was taken to Grady Memorial in an ambulance. An uneasy peace prevailed after the rioting was stopped. Police sealed off the area and checked out persons walking the streets.

About 50 Negro ministers and leaders moved into the area and talked to residents in an effort to keep down further trouble. Meetings were organized to give Negroes a chance to voice their grievances. Yesterday's violence caught the mayor, one of the few Southern officials who has advocated civil rights legislation, by surprise. Except for tension in recent weeks between the police and advocates of the "Black Power" philosophy launched by SNCC, Atlanta has heard few of the "police brutality" complaints that have heightened police-Negro tension in many of the nation's cities. Newsmen Attacked At Church Meeting ATLANTA (UPI) Negro youths attending a grievance meeting at Calvary Baptist Church last night attacked newsmen covering the session and chased them with a volley of rocks, bricks and bottles.

A mobile news cruiser owned by static WSB was turned over by the youths and newsman Andy Still was hit In the face. He was not seriously injured. The newsmen ran into the pastor's study as a hail of bricks, bottles and rocks feu on the church steps. Riot-equipped police swarmed into the area and restored order as the newsmen left. administration they want to change everything." In addition to its three regular members, the Police Department lost a part-time member, Stewart Cisscl, during the weekend.

Cissell was charged with "shooting with intent to kill but without wounding" after he took custody of three or four young men Friday night on the Hodgenville Square. Mayor Thurman said that the men got away from Cissell after he took them to county jail. He said that Cissell apparently fired shots in the air in an attempt to stop them. Warrant Is Filed A warrant against Cissell was filed by William Iglehart, Larue County. Cissell is free on $500 bond, awaiting action by the grand jury.

No charges have been filed against the men he tried to stop. In the school situation, teachers were back in their classrooms after winning salary increases reported to average about $675 for the year. However, eight families were keeping 13 children out of school because they were transferred from Hodgenville Elementary School to classrooms in Buffalo and Magnolia, five to seven miles away. School Board Chairman Lee Miller said that about 75 pupils had to be transferred because of overcrowding that resulted from the closing of an all-Negro school. He said that it was decided yesterday to allow the protesting pupils to attend Hodgenville school until a better solution can be found.

Russia Ends Pacific Tests MOSCOW (AP) The Soviet Union announced yesterday the end of a test of booster rockets fired into the Pacific Ocean, about six weeks ahead of schedule. An official announcement said the test area was again open. There was no indication of the purpose of the tests. The police denied the accusations. The wounded man, Harold Louis Prather, was reported by a spokesman at Grady Memorial Hospital in "poor condition." Police said Prather ran and refused to halt after he was told by police of a warrant charging him with automobile theft.

The shooting occurred near Prathcr's home. "This is an explosive area and they (the police) come down here and shoot a Negro good God almighty," said Cleveland Sellers, SNCC's project and program director. "People here are just reacting to police brutality." In the beginning, the missile throwing was sporadic.
