West Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt, the Socialist leader, told a reporter he sees no reason to doubt at this point that Erhard's successor will be Kurt Georg Kiesinger, the Christian candidate.

Brandt shrugged off as unimportant the suggestion that as vice chancellor he would have much less influence. But he did not deny that this was the job he might take. Brandt pointed out that party has nearly 40 per cent of the votes in the Bundestag and that there would have to be a. in policy matters. Brandt said in a television interview that the Socialists had made the precedent-breaking decision in order to give West Germany a stable government.

Their alternative a deal with the small Free Democratic party would not have produced a practical majority," he Up to now in West plained Germany's 17-year history the Socialists have always been in opposition. The decision still has some hurdles to take. First it must be approved by the parties' representatives in the Bundestag, who must elect a new chancellor to replace Ludwig Erhard. This is expected to take place Monday after some debate at separate meetings behind closed doors. Between them the two groups control 447 of the 496 Bundestag votes.

The family here has received no confirmation that Blaikie, a Marine cook whose has been engaged in Viet Nam fighting, has learned of his death despite emergency messages sent with the assistance of the American Red Cross and military authorities.

SLOGANS EVERYWHERE MOSCOW (AP) A Soviet magazine reported Red Guards in Peking are putting up Mao Tse-tung slogans on canvas walls around latrine ditches dug for the thousands of Red Guards who move into the capital. OKLAHOMA, SUNDAY, Pravda Appeals To Mao To Halt Course Detailed Attack On Peking Rule MOSCOW (AP) The Soviet Communist party paper Pravda called Sunday upon opponents of Mao Tse-tung inside China to halt his "erroneous course." The most sweeping attack on Peking made here in recent years charged that Mao's poli-1 cies have brought "failures in domestic and foreign policy" that caused growing dissatisfaclion in China. The attack, made in an editorial, for the first time clearly lined the Kremlin up with the dissatisfied elements.

"The interests of unity of all revolutionary forces in the struggle against imperialism demand that the nationalistic, anti-Soviet policy and attempts to distort Marxism-Leninism and replace it with the ideology and practice of Mao Tse-tungism be overcome." How this might be. overcome was not: made clear by Pravda. But the "demand" was the first Soviet appeal for opposition within China to Mao's "great cultural revolution." The Soviet Communist party thus sides in the power struggle going on in China. Speaking through the Pravda editorial, it denounced both Mao and his prophet and heir, Lin Piao, by name. They are endangering the position of the Chinese Communist party as the basic element in China's life, the editorial said, in order to further Mao's policies.

The editorial took a step further in the current Soviet effort to rally other parties in the See PRAVDA on page 3. U.S. Holiday Toll Leads 1964 Pace BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The death toll on the nation's highways during the four-day Thanksgiving holiday ran ahead of last year's record pace Saturday. Accidents that caused multiple deaths added to the mounting total. Traffic deaths totaled 466 since the start of the count at 6 p.m.

local time Wednesday. This was nearly 20 per cent ahead of the total during the same period last Thanksgiving weekend. During last year's Thanksgiving weekend 615 persons were killed in traffic accidents, a record high for that holiday. NOVEMBER 27, 1966 42 PAGES SUNDAY 15 CENTS Viet Cong Orders Separate Yule and New Year Truces WASHINGTON (AP) The Viet Cong broadcast orders to its forces Saturday to observe a two-day Christmas truce and a separate two-day New Year's truce in Viet Nam. It made the orders conditional 011 observance of the cease-fire by the Unted States and its allies.

Millions of peuple on the Eastern seaboard had new cause for thanksgiving Saturday. Fresh winds blew away the awful smog which had hung over them since the holiday eve. From Baltimore to Boston, winds and rain lifted the lid of stagnant warm air that trapped the nation's most populous area in its own foul fumes. State Health Commissioner Roscoe Kandle of New Jersey said the experience should stand "as a sobering reminder that mankind must get very much busier about the enormous job of controlling his environment." "The alert," he said, "should reveal to us all the unwelcome possibility that time could be on the side of pollution if we let it. It underscores the vital importance of working together to assume our own self-preservation." Most of the area had been under a stage alert, which people were asked to drive less, burn no rubbish, and use less coal and oil for heating.

Unusually warm temperatures helped them cooperate. As the winds came, New York City relit its municipal garbage incinerators, shut down since Thursday morning. That night the city's air pollution rose to a record level, five times the average, and well above the health danger point. Austin Heller, the city's air pollution control commissioner, praised Consolidated Edison Co. for cooperating with the smog See SMOG on page 3.

The broadcast brought no immediate official reaction from the State or Defense depart ments or the White House although the latter confirmed that the possibilities for a Christmastime cease-fire are being discussed with South Vietnamese government leaders in Saigon However, It appears likely the Viet Cong move insures that some sort of lull or lulls in the DAILY 5 CENTS conflict will take place over the holidays. But it seems equally clear that any such cease-fire will not be extended into a prolonged interruption of the U.S.

The temporary injunction came after five mothers filed a petition in behalf of the parents of the city's public school children. Jenkens told the women he was bypassing a local court rulling that forbids injunctions in disputes involving unions or public officials.

Moyers said the United States is discussing with Saigon the possibility of a cease-fire for those days. Proclaimed truces last year were followed by charges of violations from both sides. Viet Cong harassing actions, and relatively light military contacts had marked the war afield Saturday: The 30,000 or so American troops in War Zone northwest of Saigon wound up Attleboro, the biggest drive of the war, in which they have reported killing 1,106 of the enemy. In farewell, Viet Cong mortarmen lobbed 30 shells at an American command post, the tactical field headquarters of Brigade, 1st Infantry Division. The U.S.

Command said casualties were light. 6 On a highway six miles north of Saigon, guerillas fired about 15 shots at a civilian motor pool. A spokesman said there were no casualties.

Hannah fails on at least two counts. Her voice isn't sexy and the propaganda pitch isn't subtle. Axis Sally and Tokyo Rose often addressed their dulcet tones to specific American units. They told individual soldiers and sailors that their wives were being unfaithful while their men faced death. Hannah is less specific and more political.

Friday's program was fairly typical, Hannah "a special broadcast to servicemen in South Viet Nam." A ricky-tick jazz number came next. Hannah then spent five minutes quoting "Western news agencies" on American battle losses.

This was followed by antiwar items apparently gleaned from U.S. newspapers. Hannah reported student demonstrations, peace picketing and rallies. She quoted one draft-age youth as telling the Chicago Daily that "I'd rather be dead than drafted." Next came a rock 'n roll tune titled "Glad All Over" and the show's feature attraction, a talk on "President Johnson's insomnia." Hannah contended LBJ was tossing and turning, unable to sleep because of "lengthier and U.S. losses in Viet against the war.

Her theme was that the President was "too full of care to sleep; and when sleep finally did come it was filled with nightmares." Hannah appealed to GIs "as clear-minded men, don't let yourself be strung along in Johnson's nightmare." The show usually ends with Hannah reciting the names, ranks and branches of the service: of Americans killed in Viet Nam. These are released by the Defense Department in Washington.
