WILLIS Resigns Chicago post issued a statement endorsing civil rights and civil rights legislation. Vice President Richard M. Nixon says there, are pressures inside and outside the Kennedy administration for a nonaggression pact --and that such a pact could permanently enslave 97 million Eastern Europeans. "I believe the time has come for a complete change of direction and emphasis in American foreign policy toward Eastern Europe' Nixon said in an article in the current Saturday Evening Post. Nixon said Soviet Premier Khrushchev was sitting on a powder keg of possible revolt by the peoples of Eastern satellites against their Communist govern ments "if they thought they had a chance to succeed, "It is not surprising, therefore, that Khrushchev's main foreign policy objective at this time is to keep the lid on this Pandora's box of" troubles for the" Communist empire," Nixon said.

WARSAW GROUP "Today Khrushchev hopes to do this by negotiating a nonaggression pact between the NATO nations and the Communist Warsaw Pact group. "This would give him exactly what he wants recognition by the WesLof -ihe- legality permanence of his Eastern European Communist regimes. "He knows that all he now has are squatters' rights in these countries, obtained through very questionable means. For him, a nonaggression pact would be a quitclaim deed a legal title from the West." Nixon, who traveled to Eastern Europe last summer, said: "Because there are strong pressures from within as well as from outside the Kennedy administration to make such a deal, I believe that only the mobilization of an aroused and informed public opinion will prevent the sellout of the right of 97 million enslaved people in Eastern Europe, to be free." CALLS IT IMMORAL He said it would be immoral for the United States to do any thing that would give the impression of drawing a line down the middle of Europe. Nixotf held that the United States' goal must be a free Cuba, free Eastern Europe, a free Soviet Union and a free China.

'And every policy, must directed to reach that goal through peaceful means," he said. 'This was once the stated policy of the Kennedy administration, but it has been watered down and wrapped in double talk from the time the negotiations for the test ban began." 6th Buddhist Monk Burns In Saigon Continued from Page 1 nedy on the progress of the anti- communist war. One of Kennedy's aims in dis patching McNamara to South Viet Nam was to determine whether the political-religious crisis had hurt the war effort. TROOPS TAKE OVER -Minutes after the-- -monk's charred and blackened body top- pled over, troops and police rushed in, tanks and armored cars rolled up and barbed wire barricades were thrown around downtown Saigon. The monk, in his early 20s, stepped out of a taxicab at the busy central market intersection shortly aftej noon.

He 'squatted down, in the Buddhist lotus posi tion, pulled a can of gasoline from a small rubber bag, poured the contents on his lap and lit match. He grimaced briefly as the flames engulfed him but main tained his erect posture as the flames ate through his buddhist robe, baring his gradually black ening body. The lotus position is a traditional Buddhist sitting' po sition with the legs crossed, WITNESSED SUICIDE Three minutes later, his arms raised stiffly before him, the monk keeled over dead. American news correspondents were only 10 yards A leaflet thrown into the yard of Vietnamese intelligence headquarters identified the monk as Thich Quang Huong.

By the Associated Press Mass marches, demonstrations and sit-ins flared again on the racial scene while the school desegregation situation was marked by an unexpected resignation. Benjamin C.
