The Russians reported today they had received word of an assassination plot against Premier Nikita Khrushchev but New York police discounted the report as "part of the Russians' continuing propaganda battle." Russian security police said they had received word of a plot to assassinate Khrushchev during the day with a gun hidden in a press camera and that the plot would be carried out as Khrushchev moved about the city. Khrushchev ignored the reported threat and drove in a heavily guarded police motorcade to this morning's UN session although nq important developments were foreseen until this afternoon when an East-West battle is expected over, admission of Communist China.

He demanded Herter take immediate steps to stop the pickets and relay his protest to President Eisenhower. Earlier Khrushchev complained over a scuffle between New York police and Gen. Nicolai Zaharov of his staff while the Soviet premier was visiting Castro at a Harlem hotel.

POLICE ALSO PROTEST New York police commissioner Stephen P. Kennedy filed a formal complaint with the State Department, accusing Zaharov of "rough tactics." This latest exchange added to Khrushchev's indignation over the U. S. edict restricting his movements to Manhattan Island and it was predicted he would loose a blast in the UN assembly. It was also considered a good bet Castro would air his much publicized squabble with the management of a midtown hotel which led to his leaving in high dudgeon and moving to Harlem.

Western diplomats pointed out both Cuba and the Soviet Union, eager for a chance to embarrass the United States, would hardly pass up such an opportunity. UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (D-United States hospitality today appeared to be in for a concerted attack as protests against treatment received by visiting government chiefs spilled onto the assembly floor. The issue was brought before the assembly last night by Koca Popovic, Yugoslav foreign minister.

He called on U. S. Secretary of State Christian A. Herter to take urgent steps in guaranteeing the freedom of President Tito's movements in New York. Popovic's complaint aroused- speculation Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, who has been feuding with New York police, and Cuban Prime Minister Fidel Castro, who has been having trouble with hotels, also would air their grievances before the UN.

Khrushchev, who has been paying little at- tention to the proceedings, leaned forward and listened intently to Popovic's speech. Popovic broke into a speech welcoming admission of 14 new members to the UN to protest against pickets, demonstrating in front of the 'The Governor And I They Who Grieved Comfort Grieving IIARRISBURG, Pa.

(LTD The Air Force' today fired its first Blue Scout rocket an estimated 17,000 miles into space, but lost radio contact with its pay-load within minutes after the launching.

Come Here fn 1970 John H. Williams, 76, Pioneer, Dies Force fired an Atlas missile 9,000 miles, and the Navy sent a radiation package 1,200 miles above the Pacific. This was the first of 12 shots, including two attempts fo orbit earth satellites, planned for Blue Scout within the next year. The rocket, costing "considerably ler. than $500,000 per copy, is based on the federal space agency's Scout, tested July 1 at Wallops Island, Va.

Authorities said Blue Scout could "conceivably" pay its way by locating a "safe area" for high altitude testing of nuclear explosions, and in developing a system of detecting similar tests by other nations. Today's Blue Scout debut was planned as a round-trip flight for a 32.8 pound payload of radiation-measuring devices and missile test equipment. If all went well, the instrument- would reach peak altitude of 17,000 miles in about three and one-half hours. But if they come from the next best thing. They that others grieve with them, and that they hope for something, in time, akin to healing.

So it is with Almeta and Albert Kunkle, who live in the town of Ephrata, Lancaster County. The Kunkles lost their 10-year-old son, Paul, in an automobile accident on Labor Day. The tragedy seemed to turn out the lights for good on the family's happi-r ness. The Kunkles are well -liked. It was to be expected that they should get many letters of condolence.

i But one letter jjj LAWRENCE came which was indeed a surprise. It is a letter which Mrs. Kunkle reads over and over. She draws comfort from it. Her heart warms to the busy, high-placed, couple who sent it She is especially grateful to the woman, who brought into the letter her own sorrow over a similar loss.

GREATLY DISTRESSED It was Mrs. David Lawrence, wife of Pennsylvania's governor, who wrote it This is what it says: "The Governor and I were let those who grieve know greatly distressed to read of the tragedy that has come to you, and we want you to know you have our deepest sympathy. "Because we lost two of our boys in an auto accident, we realize how very difficult it will be for you to accept the fact that Paul was taken from you at such an early age. Mere words are most inadequate to express our feeling for you at this time. However, you are in our thoughts and we pray God may give you the strength and courage you need to endure these dark days." To the Kunkles, the Lawrences are no longer remote figures in a remote mansion.

They are all good neighbors together now, for they have sorrowed as one. The letter brings to light today what the public has not known. Ever since a shattering night in April, 1942, when the Law rences learned that two of their sons one 13, the other 16 had been killed, Mrs. Lawrence has been writing letters of sympathy to parents of children killed not only by automobiles, but in any kind of accident. She makes each letter personal.

And there are many letters every week, every month. er structures in the downtown section. He was one of the founders and- a director of the First National Bank.

Born in Parkersburg, Wil liams, 76, came here in 1910 and the following year he founded the Jack Williams Novelty Works. This firm later became the Gate City Planing Mill and then was renamed the Gate City Sash Door Co. in 1933, Williams bought the Gate City Lumber and Supply Co. In 1956 the G. C.

Williams was a contractor, build ing the old Gilbert Hotel and oth alter Arm said the Russians had tipped the State Department that "former Gestapo agents" were coming to New York disguised as press photographers. Lt Gen. Nikolai Zakharov.

Khrushchev's chief security officer, told the State Department the tip had come from the Russian trade mission in Bern, Switzerland. The Russian said a special gun had been built in a movie camera and installed in an automobile by the "Gestapo agents." A high police source said the police department holds the view that the Communist EIoc "would love to see American newspapermen roughed up and every camera broken and taken apart" The spokesman pointed out that New York police know most of the cameramen employed by bonafide news agencies in New York. "We view this all as part of the same propaganda pattern that was planned even before they said they were coming here," the police spokesman said, "even that (Fidel Castro) incident at the Shelburne, where later it was found that contact with the other hotel had been made before the incident arose." COST TWICE AS MUCH This was a reference to the Cuban premier's decision to stalk out of the Shelburne in protest against alleged overcharges there and move to a Harlem hotel which charged him nearly twice as much. The high police source said even the anti-Communist demonstrators were "plavinz into th hands of the Communists" and that it suited the purposes of the Communist propaganda mill to publish "pictures of American cops fighting American citizens. Police nevertheless scrutinized press credentials more closely than normal today and looked over some of the cameras carried by newsmen, but there was no detailed inspection.

The emphasis was on movie cameras, especial ly those with long lenses. A first report by the Soviet Trading corporation, Amtorg, said the attempt would be made in front of the Russian headquarters as he left for the UN session. A later report said the attempt could come "any place of ttnvr Km. .1 uj iujjc wiiercver mere are cameras." New York police, strained by the most formidable security task in their history guarding 15 visiting heads of state were edgy. Police issued a general alert to be on guard wherever Khrushchev went Meanwhile, the United Nations moved toward debate today on the Cold War's deadliest issues while violence raged in New York streets.

Khrushchev was the target of two fierce demonstrations. Mounted police charged one crowd. Night sticks were used on another. Howling men and women retaliated, hurling eggs and firecrackers. Persons who said they were Poles, Hungarians, Yugoslavs, Greeks, Albanians and anti-Castro Cubans swarmed through the streets.

They clustered around Khrushchev's Park Avenue residence, Fidel Castro's hotel in Harlem, and the Yugoslav headquarters where President Tito is staying. Other groups paraded carrying pacifist signs, and still others carried placards bearing the slj. gan, "Ike Be Courteous." Fled Jail To Attend Stepfather Sees Funeral Of Son EAST LOS ANGELES, Calif. (UPD They will bury 5-year-old Joseph F. Cordova today.

His stepfather, who escaped from prison to attend the funeral, received permission to be at graveside. The four-stage solid propellant rocket, which may herald new high altitude nuclear tests and early flights by models of earth orbiting gliders, blasted into the sky at 8:02 a.m. EST. The Air Force said all four stages fired normally, and "there is no reason to believe" the rocket did not reach planned peak altitude. But radio contact was lost eight seconds before the final stage engines burned out.

Authorities said an earlier Air Force report telemetry signals had been received from the pavload "was erroneous." The Air Force said the primary objective, testing of the new rocket officially known as "Blue Scout was successful, and the payload experiments were "of a secondary nature." It was America's third space shot since Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's arrival in New York City for the United Nations session. On Monday, the Air Castro in Nikita Is WASHINGTON. (J) Sen.

(0) President Eisenhower today decided to stay over night in New York tomor row so that he can talk with some of the govern ment leaders attending the session of the United Na tions General Assembly. In announcing this, the White House declined to say what foreign visitors might meet with the President However, there was no indica tion that Russian Premier Nikita Khrushchev would be on the list. Press Secretary James C.

Hagerty has repeatedly said there were no plans for an Eisenhower-Khrushchev meeting. Eisenhower's decision to remain in New York overnight came atop an earlier announcement that he would give a luncheon tomorrow in New York for representatives of 18 Latin American countries. Eisenhower is going to New York to address a forenoon session of the United Nations. Originally the President had planned to return to Washington in the afternoon. But Hagerty said that the overnight stay had been decided upon so that appointments could be made in the afternoon with world leaders at the United Nations.

If Eisenhower does not see Khrushchev, the omission may be regarded as a snub to the Soviet premier who withdrew an invitation for Eisenhower to visit Russia this summer. Cuban Premier Fidel Castro is not being asked to the luncheon for Latin-Americans. Castro is the highest ranking official of a Latin-American government at the Assembly session but neither he nor any other Cuban official wan invited to Eisenhower's luncheon. The Dominican Republic also was excluded, but Hagerty pointed out that the United States has broken diplomatic relations with that nation. The press secretary said he was not yet ready to disclose the Presidents appointments for tomorrow afternoon because some of -them were not firmed up.

In response to an inquiry, Hagerty said Eisenhower's decision to stay in New York overnight did not mean an Eisenhower-Khrushchev meeting is being arranged. Eisenhower does not plan to meet with any foreign statesmen at dinner tomorrow night, and will return to Washington early Friday in time for 8 a.m. cabinet meeting, Hagerty said. Third Cuban Plane Seized NEW YORK, ffl A Cubana Airline turbo-prop plane, which arrived at Idlewild Airport last night carrying two Cuban delegates to the United Nations, was seized and placed in the hands of a temporary receiver appointed by State Supreme Court Justice Louis L. Friedman.

The $3 million plane arrived from Havana with Juan Almedia, chief of the army, and Regino Boti, Cuban Minister of Economics, as passengers. Three planes, a DC-4 and two Britannias, have now been seized. Last night's seizure was made on behalf of a Cubana Airline stockholder, who obtained a court order for a temporary receiver for the airline on the grounds that it had been nationalized by the Cuban government and has ceased to do business. The first two planes were seized on an order obtained by the Miami advertising firm of Harris and which claims the Cuban government owes it $237,801. Jam; Hope from Nikita Khrushchev." The Florida Senator proposed a sharp change in United States relations with the Castro government, including immediate withdrawal of U.

Lopez, 27, heard of his stepson's death the next day in his cell at the institution for men at Chino, 40 miles away. Rules forbade his attending the funeral. He escaped a week ago today. Police were alerted he might return to the Los Angeles area for the funeral. Lopez, convicted in January of robbery, did return yesterday and was arrested by police at a Pomona hotel.

Accompanied by two detectives, the rules were overlooked and he was allowed to attend services before he was turned over to deputy sheriffs as an escaped prisoner. Authorities said Lopez will be returned to Chino where he was held as a minimum security prisoner, serving a five-year-to-life sentence. Prison officials said he would be tried for escape, a conviction meaning an additional one-year-to-life term. Road Probe's High Beam Is On Miami TALLAHASSEE.

FCC Temporarily Suspends WSPT-TK Transfer Order WASHINGTON. (B The Federal Communications Commission today temporarily suspended its July order requiring Public Service Television, of Miami, to surrender TV channel 10 on which it operates station WPST-TV. Under the order, the channel would have been transferred on Sept 30 to L. B. Wilson, for operation of a new Miami station.

However, Public Service, which has taken an appeal to the U. S. Court of Appeals here, two days ago asked that court to freeze the present situation until its case can be heard. The FCC said today the proposed transfer will be delayed until 15 days after the court acts on this request.
