THE TEEEE HAUTE STAR, MONDAY, APRIL 7, 1958. West Will Confer On Reply to Soviet A-Test Ban Offer BY K. C. THALER LONDON, April 6. Iff) The Western powers have scheduled urgent consultations early this week to draft a swift reply to Moscow's "near-ultimatum" calling for suspension of Western nu- dear tests, diplomatic sources said today.

Sources said the West was expected to tell Russia that it is prepared to suspend tests only if there are adequate controls and safeguards. SOVIET Premier Nikita Khrushchev, in his new dual role as Communist Party and government chief, urged the West in formal notes made public Saturday night to follow Russia's lead in suspending nuclear tests. Khrushchev warned that unless the West does so. the Russians will resume their tests. The test suspension issue may make or break the projected summit conference of which it is considered an integral part.

Khrushchev's notes to the United States. Britain and other NATO nations were under preliminary examination Sunday in Western capitals. DIPLOMATIC sources said they will be fully "studied" within the next few days in close consultations between the United States and Britain and within the NATO alliance. Speed in drafting a rejoinder was essential because of the propaganda effect of Russia's mounting psychological campaign. lax Reduction Continued From Page 1 employment "didn't change much from February."

There is no gain involved, just sheer vandalism." -t- THROUGHOUT the day, numerous persons visited the cemetery and were appalled at the desecration they found. One woman was overheard to say, "Don't anyone tell mom about this, she couldn't take it." Trooper Thrasher reported he canvassed the neighborhood seeking information from residents and learned that voices were heard in the vicinity of the cemetery about 3 o'clock in the morning but vandalism was not susnected since Davis Avenue, which runs along the north side of the cemetery, frequently is used as a lane." bi young couples. It was determined the vandalism occurred sometime after 11 o'clock Saturday night since Carr said he left the church at tha time after making one final check and there was no one in the cemetery at that time.

All of the molested markers were in the new section of the cemetery- THE ASSOCIATION spokesman said the expense of replacing the stones would be borne by the association but that the broken markers would have to be repaired by the families. Trooper Thrasher' indicated a further investigation probauly would be undertaken by State Police detectives. Meanwhile, reports of theft and vandalsim from two other local cemeteries were received by The Star. At Woodlawn Cemetery, someone had removed sod from a new grave and at Highlawn Lawn Cemetery, zoysia grass was stolen from a grave. San Francisco Bay Area Gets Relief As Storm Shifts SAN FRANCISCO, April The storm front of a Pacific low pressure area which has been battering California with one-two punches for a week moved southeastward today bringing relief to the major disaster areas.

The latest in the series of storms from the pressure trough hit the San Francisco Bay area and the central valley again Saturday night, but with diminished fury. NO HEAVILY populated areas appeared to be in immediate danger Sunday as the waters of swollen rivers and creeks in the central valley receded or were controlled. The earlier storms of more savage fury had resulted in 12 dead, thousands made temporarily homeless and damage estimated in the millions. Thousands of acres of farmland in the San' Joaquin Valley were inundated and probably will be flooded from the runoff in the High Sierra. THE MAIN STORM front now lies near Santa Barbara and Bakersfield and is moving southeast.

The low pressure center is about 250 miles west of San Francisco and has been moving southeast about 25 miles per hour, the Weather Bureau reported. The center, the bureau said, is expected to turn east to cross the middle of the state Sunday night.

Cuba Continued From Page 1 capital of Oriente, was a city of fear. Waring said Santiago, industrially, was a dying city and might be "dead" by Monday. He said fear and lack of raw materials had strangled production of the major industrial firms. Widespread absenteeism by work- Parade at White House WASHINGTON, April Supporters of Cuban rebel leader Fidel Castro marched in front of the White House today urging the United States to prevent use of U. S.

arms against Castro followers. About 80 placard carrying pickets demonstrated quietly for about an hour. They left before President Eisenhower returned fom a weekend at his Gettysburg. farm. The State Department says the United States has a policy of not shipping arms to either side in Cuba.

Trinidad, in the West Indies has a large hummingbird population. ers, he said, seemed more attributable to fear of possible violence than desire to participate in any general strike. WARING SAID the some two-score American employes at the $15,000,000 Texas Oil Company refinery at Santiago de Cuba expected they would have to begin closing it down at any moment. Their families already had been evacuated. If the refinery is closed, the oil men are expected to pull out also.

Waring said no formal curfew had been imposed in Santiago but none was necessary. He said the streets were deserted by 7 P. M. and the city resembled a "ghost town" by midnight. About 40 newsmen and photographers attended the press conference at Batista's farm.

BATISTA SAID Castro was not a true Christian and could not be trusted to head a government. "No man who permits pictures to be taken of the killing of a man or the signing of his death warrant could be trusted to head a nation," he said. He was referring to recent pic tures published in the United States showing the execution at Castro's orders of two rebels charged with rape. Batista showed no evidence of concern throughout the conference. With him were his wife, Marta, and his four sons, Jorge, 15 years old, Roberto, 10, Carlos Manuel, 8, and Fulgencio 5.

Despite the atmosphere of tension pervading the capital city, church were filled for traditional Easter Sunday religious rites. No disturbances or demonstrations were reported. SEIZE ARMS CARGO MIAMI, April agents and sheriff's deputies Sunday seized a rented, you-drive- it truck containing $50,000 worth of guns and ammunition destined for Cuba.

Authorities had seen alerted to be on the lookout 'or it by an anonymous tip from New York. No arrests were made. THE HAUL increased to about $150,000 the total value customs men have placed on Cuba-bound arms "seized in the Miami area during the past year. The arsenal included 83,000 rounds of ammunition, 34 machine guns, IT rifles, two hand grenades wd several cases of repair parts 'or the weapons. There also were .30 caliber machine gun barrels apparently intended as replacements for plugged barrels in several of the guns.

Wyatt said an investigation is under way to find out who hired the truck and where it came from. Delayed Rainfall Lets Illinoisans Celebrate Easter BY UNITED PRESS Overcast skies threatened but didn't cancel the many Easter Sunday sunrise services in Illinois. Sprinkles of rain fell over a few areas, but generally the precipitation stopped or held off until about mid-day. Chilly temperatures and winds also failed to dampen services joyously observing the resurrection of Christ. AT BALD KNOB Mountain near Alto Pass, about 1,200 persons were attracted to a dawn service at which the Reverend Vernon MacNeill, Springfield, 111., delivered the sermon.

Poet Ezra Pound May Win Release Under Court Writ BY PAUL DUKE WASHINGTON, April 6.

W) The long dark night may be nearing an end for Ezra Pound, the unstable giant of American poetry. A Washington law firm plans to file a court petition this week seeking to free the 72-year-old Idahoan irom the mental hospital where he has been confined since 1946 when he was ruled income- tent to stand trial for treason. THE FIRM said it would institute the motion without fee at the request of Robert Frost, grand old man of American verse. The motion will seek dismissal of the indictment against A Justice Department spokesman declined comment on what the government's position would be, but there were indications no objections would be made to releasing Pound. If freed, the bearded, frowzy- haired eccentric will probably return to Italy where he spent 21 years before his arrest on charges of broadcasting for the Axis in World War II.

POUND HAS been neck-deep in controversy ever since he began inching toward a top place in the world's contemporary literary echelons 40 years ago. While in his twenties he denounced the "booby" culture of America and went abroad to live. He was accused of being a Fascist and anti-Semitic. His poetry won prizes but some critics said it was so much mush to them. The board of psychiatrists which suggested his admission to Washington's St.

Elizabeths Hospital found Pound "eccentric, quarul- ous and egocentric." But this kaleidoscopic personality did not cause his bosters to run away and in recent years the appeals for his release have multiplied. Such literary stalwarts as T. S. Eliot, Ernest Hemingway, Allen Tate and Robert Frost have spoken up in his behalf. ELIOT CALLED Pound "the best poet of our times" and Tate credited him with putting new life in the English language as no one else has.

Hemingway, while condemning Pound's wartime broadcasts, said he had paid his debt and continued confinement was a "cruel and unusual punishment." Others noted that he has been held longer than Tokyo Rose and some of the German war criminals. But it was Frost who may have swung the government to a policy of concession. The 83-year-old dean of American poets called on Attorney Gen. Rogers recently and told him it would make America look bad to let one of its chief literary figures die in a mental institution. Hub Caps Stolen William Elmore, 2725 College Avenue, complained to police yesterday that someone stole all four hub caps from his car while it was parked in front of his house Saturday night.

Paraguayan Capital Fears Drive by Rebels ASUNCION, Paraguay, April 6 of increasing rebel guerrilla activity in the southern brush country turned this capital into a tense city today.
