(AP) Secretary General Dag Ham- marskjold was caught today in a cross-fire from the United States and Communist Czechoslovakia over U.S. spy charges against Czech diplomat Miroslav Nacva- lac. The United States sent Ham- marskjold a note charging that Nacvalac, handsome 39-year-old counselor at the Czech U.N.

mission, is Prague's chief intelligence agent in America and that he paid an instructor at the U.S. Army Language School in Monterey, $1,700 for information. The United States said it had pictures to prove it. The language instructor, a naturalized American citizen born in Czechoslovakia, confirmed the U.S. account.

The U.S. note declared anew that the Czech government should recall Nacvalac at once and denied that the demand for his departure violated the agreement between the United States and the United Nations giving special rights to diplomats accredited to the United Nations.

charges. His delegation indicated it. would press Hammarskjold to rule that U.S. action against the counselor violated both the U.N. charter and the U.S.-U.N.

agreement. The U.S. note said Nacvalac was known to U.S. authorities as the "chief of Czechoslovak civilian intelligence operations in the United States and has a long background in Czechoslovak intelligence work." It charged that Nacvalac had six meetings with the Army lan- "guage instructor, Karel Hlasny, between 1958 and 1961, offered an exit permit from Czechoslovakia for Hlasny's fiancee in exchange for intelligence information, and paid him various sums totaling $1.700. The United States said Hlasny was cooperating with the U.S.

government all the time and the information he passed was worthless. But Hlasny's fiancee got-her exit permit in 1959 and they were married in California. Naclavac said the U.S. charges were "all lies" and that he had never been in California. But U.S.

State Department press officer Lincoln White displayed photographs of Naclavac and Hlasny lie said were taken outside a San Francisco restaurant where met. Czechoslovakia's charge that the U.S. demands violated the U.N. headquarters agreement with the United States had aroused speculation that the Czechs would request that the case be referred to an arbitration tribunal. Clayton Fritchey, a spokesman for the U.S.

delegation said the arbitration proceedings can take place only when there is disagreement between the United States and the secretary-general, and "we know of no such issue." Fritchey said he had been assured last week by the Czechoslovak delegation that Nacvalac would be leaving soon. This was denied by Zdensk Cernik. acting Czechoslovak delegation head. He said he had informed the United States that his government rejected the charges against Nac- valac, and that he was awaiting further instructions from Prague. State Rests Case in Kinne Trial As Defense Prepares Arguments Huff to Speak at Joint Club Dinner KANSAS CITY (AP)-The state rested today in the first degree murder trial of Mrs.

Sharon Kinne, 21-year-old widow, charged with the slaying of Mrs. Patricia Jones. Defense Attorney James P. Quinn indicated there was a possibility the case may go to the jury late today. After the stale rested Judge Tom J.

Stubbs overruled a mo- lion for a directed verdict of ac- quillal. Final wilness for the state was William J. Myers, police ballistic technician, who was recalled to teslify about some bullets taken from a tree. The death weapon has not been found. Mrs.

Jones, 23, was found shot to death near Independence more than a year ago. Testimony at the Emporia service clubs will have a joint dinner meeting Monday in trial, now in its ninth day, brought the out that Mrs. Kinne had been dating Mrs. Jones' Waller.

Agreement Is Near On a Laotian Issue Switzerland The military strongman of Laos' pro-Western government announced today that virtual agreement had been reached on unifying the fighting forces of his nation's three rival factions. "Some points remain to be discussed, but they arc minor ones," said Gen. Phoumi Nosavan after a working session of key advisers to the politician princes who are holding a summit meeting in this Swiss city.

Nosavan said the three sides had agreed on most problems connected with integrating the country's armies. This indicated that one of the most important obstacles to agreement among the three sides had been virtually overcome. But it appeared to leave unsettled the problem of administering provinces now under military control by the pro-Communist forces. Phoumi's statement was echoed by Quinim Phosena who represents Prince Souvannn Phouma's neutralist faction. "There are more reasons to be optimistic today," he said.

Phoumi Vongvichit of the pro- Communist Pathct Lao rebels acknowledged that there had been a "certain rapprochement." But he declined to assess the chances for success of the meeting. In Geneva, 200 miles away, delegates from Western nnd Communist nations argued about ways to make Laos independent and neutral, with the Communists adamantly opposing anything that would prevent the Reds taking over the little Southeast Asian kingdom. In Laos, on the other side of the world, officials of the pro-Western government in Vientiane reported that troops of the pro-Communist Pathet Lao were making probing attacks on the royal government troops and Mco tribesmen who wilhdrcw from Padong June 7 after a Pathet Lao artillery and infantry assault.
