Little hope seen for Viet Train and bus collide, killing 18 farm workers talk in Security Council UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (API-Opposition led by the Soviet Union and France and joined by nonpermanent members Tuesday virtually killed any chance for the U. N. Security Council to take a hand in a Viet Nam peace settlement.

The 15-member council put off until Wednesday a vote on a U.S. request to open a full scale debate on Viet Nam aimed at producing a plan to end the war. Even if the United States gets the required nine affirmative votes, the stand taken by the Soviet Union, France and at least four other members doomed chances for agreement on substantive proposals. Jordan appeared to hold the key to whether the United Slates would get the required votes to place Viet Nam on the council's agenda. Waleed Sadi.

the Jordanian delegate, asked the council to postpone the vote. Diplomatic sources said he had initial instructions to support the United States, but that after listening to the debate and consuling with other Arab delegations he asked for new instructions. They had not arrived at the end of the day's debate. Lining up behind the United States were Argentina, Britain, Nationalist China, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, and Uruguay. Bulgaria.

Mali, France and the Soviet Union said they would vote no. Nigeria said it would abstain, and Uganda indicated it would do the same. The council adjourned at 5:54 p.m. until 3 p.m. Wednesday.

The United States claimed it had enough support to win approval by a narrow margin for full-scale debate, but the opposition appeared to rule out any chance of pushing through a U.S. peace plan. U.S. Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg pleaded with mem- bers of the 15-nation council to help the world open a new avenue to peace.

He defended the resumption of U.S. bombing of North Viet Nam as the only course open to President Johnson because of refusal by Ho Chi Minn, the North Viet Nam leader, to respond to U.S. peace moves. He proposed that representatives of both Saigon and Hanoi be invited to take part in the council deliberations. But Soviet Ambassador Nikolai T.

Fedorenko accused the United States of staging a propaganda show in the Security Council, and objected to any council consideration of the U.S. move. In Hanoi the North Vietnamese government said it would regard as null and void any resolutions approved by the council. It declared that only the 1954 Geneva conference provided a competent framework for the Viet Nam issue. Fedorenko's opposition to putting the Viet Nam question on the council agenda got quick support from French Ambassador Roger Seydoux.

who said that no progress could be made because, neither Communist China, nor North or South Viet Nam were U.N. members. MIAMI, Fla. A farm workers bus collided 11 a train engine at a crossing in the fields south of Miami Tuesday night, killing at least 18 and injuring 14. The 1961 model bus was impaled on the front of the engine, wrapped completely around the front and pushed 500 feet down the track.

Police and firemen worked for hours under floodlights prying loose the shattered bus and removing bodies. The dead workers all men from Puerto covered with colored blankets and laid beside the track. A medical team, flown by hel- icopter from the downtown hospital 15 miles away, gave first aid to the injured. The more badly hurt were taken to the hospital in the copter. Twelve were in critical condition.

E.B. Shaw of Hialeah. one of the four crewmen on the train, which was carrying only a single caboose, said he was traveling toward Miami about 30 miles an hour when he reached the intersection. The crossing has no warning lights, but is marked with a railroad cross painted on the narrow road arid stop signs on both sides. The train apparently struck the bus squarely in the middle, caving in the side.

A reporter said there was a hole in the opposite side of the but, but be was unable to tell In tlM darkness whether the impact had been so great as to push the engine completely through the bus.

Mrs. Vam worked only a short time under Social Security and had never qualified for monthly cash benefits. Congress changed the law last summer to provide so persons can qualify for monthly benefits with less work than was previously required. Consequently, Mrs. Varn will now qualify for a monthly benefit of $35 and this payment will be retroactive to last September when the change was first effective.

Mrs. Varn, who was born in Finland, came to the United States in 1889, when she was 7. She came to Butte in 1890. Mr. Varn worked as a shoemaker in Butte many years.

He died in 1952. Salo said he feels a better job can be done than is now being done in the sheriff's office and that he qualified to do it through knowledge of the problems and duties of the office, and through his wide acquaintance and associations' gained by long residence in Butte and by participation in sports as an athlete and as an official. He said he sees a need for better cooperation of the sheriff's office with media of communication, with the public and with city and state law enforcement agencies. "I wouldn't be in this race (Continued Page 2, Col. 2) developing industry in smaller countries, and more on making it possible for their citizens to survive.

With this in mind, Johnson proposed that the United States help underdeveloped countries raise more food, and promised U.S. advice, if it is requested, in developing birth control programs. He also emphasized strongly that the whole program, which he wants authorized for five years, instead of the usual one is to enable this country "to cooperate with the industrious." It is unwilling, he said, "to subsidize those who do not assume responsibility for their own fate." The President declared that "my recommendations are grounded in the deep conviction that we must use foreign assistance to attack the root causes poverty. We must concentrate on countries not" hostile to us that give solid evidence that they are determined to help themselves."

He went to the Chicago Veterinary College and then returned to practice veterinary medicine in the Gallatin Valley. A short time later he was employed by the Anaconda Co. to assist in the defense of the famous "smoke case," an action which sought to enjoin the company from operating the Anaconda smelter.

Dr. Gardiner showed successful farming and ranching could be carried on in the vicinity of the smelter and was a principal witness in the case which was decided in 1907 in favor of the company. Dr. Gardiner continued to manage the company's ranch property after the "smoke case."

Keaton continued pursuing his comic trade until he fell ill three months ago. The end came Tuesday morning at the suburban Woodland Hills home he had bought with returns from his film biography, which starred Donald O'Connor in 1956.

The 75-year-old actress writer succumbed in Cedars of Lebanon Hospital. Present at the hospital but not at her bedside was actor William Hopper, her only child. The son, who plays Detective Paul Drake on the Perry Mason television show, announced his mother's death.

Miss Hopper entered the hospital last Sunday after coming down with a virus the Friday before. Her death came as a shock to Hollywood, a town where she had enemies as well as friends, due to her frequent columnar spankings of wayward stars. Born Elda Furry on a farm near Hollidaysburg, one of nine children of Quaker parents, she got the name Hedda from ber only husband, Wolfe Hopper, a Iheatrical giant at the turn of the century. She was 23 a beautiful chorus girl in New York, when she became the sixth wife of Hooper, then 55. They divorced in 1922.

FRANCIS P. KELLY makes it official today Six more weeks of winter! That will probably be the official ground hog forecast for the Butte area. With the Weather Bureau calling for partly cloudy skies today, it appeared the furry woodchuck will have an excellent chance of seeing his own shadow. As tradition has it, the ground hog is charged with the annual chore of surveying the weather on ground-hog day, Feb. 2.

He arouses himse from wintry hibernation, climbs out of his hole and views the terrain. The sight of his own shadow frightens him back into the hole, therein to sleep through another six weeks of winter. The woodchuck who fails to sight his shadow remains above ground, believing winter to be vanquished by spring breezes. Pity the poor ground hog in Montana who fails to be frightened back into his bole. Those that remain above ground are certain to freeze to death, for despite centuries of tradition.
