nation'sp rincipal airfield is at Maracay. The pudgy Venezuelan general won another five-year term only last December 15 in a plebisCite-which gave the voters a chance to vote only yes or no. He had no opponent. The revolt caught the government during the early morning while New Year's Eve revelry was still going on. For hours the only countermeasures were the ack-ack fire and a steady stream of threats and cajolery by the government radio.

Perez Jimenez claimed continued control over Caracas and ordered a wartime brownout against air attacks. He also warned against rumors and kept a strict press censorship in force. The Dutch press agency ANP said its correspondent in the off-shore Dutch West Indies quoted both rebel and government broadcasts as saying that rioting had broken out in Caracas but was put down quickly. Diplomatic sources, in Washington said the presidential palace had been bombed at least once and Xaracas had been strafed during almost continuous rebel sorites.

URA Survey Team May Begin Work Monday At Beach Monday a survey team may begin passing tentative death sentences on homes and buildings in urban redevelopment agency's beach project, according to URA Director Earl Newkirk. Walter Keller, of the city's inspection services department, will head the work designed to class all buildings in the area according to local codes and ordinances for construction, wiring, plumbing and the like. Structures which do not meet code standards and economically cannot be brought up to code must be torn down. In URA's San Lorenzo park project, only 17 of 153 residential structures were cleared by the city to be moved.

The rest will be demolished this year. "The purchase price of a building will not be directly affected because it is to be razed," Newkirk said. "We will still pay fair market value the structure based on real estate appraisals. What we are trying to prevent is flooding outlying areas with substandard structures. That would only transfer blight, not cure it." URA agency members Arnold Levine, Charles Hall and Tom Polk Williams will report rec ommendations soon on possible planners for the agency's second project 'the beach urban redevelopment project (BURP).

The $82,000 planning grant recently made by the federal government will cover the cost of market analysis of the area, first real estate appraisals and administrative costs to the time of final city council hearings on BURP. If the project is turned down, the funds will be written off by the federal government at no cost to the city. Newkirk said final plans should be submitted to the council by the spring of 1959. If approved, the city can apply for the $1,151,550 federal capital grant held in reserve for the project. Jack Frost At Work mm Marin County School Man May Get State Post Los Angeles W).

Captain Kidd Is On Loose Again Arthur Capp, a 15-year-old pirate with-the gall of Captain Kidd, was still at large today, five days after he broke out of Berkeley's juvenile hall. Capp, who boasted the place was not big enough to hold him, was in on a grand theft charge which resulted after he and a 14-year-old friend stole a commercial fishing boat ouf of Berkeley's yacht harbor December 10. The pair grounded the ship at Scotts Creek beach above Davenport the next day when they attempted to make what they described as a "gas stop." The youth's escape from the hall came last Saturday night when he broke a 10-inch window and crawled out wearing only his pajamas.

He has not been seen since. Juvenile hall authorities said today they have heard no word of Capp. Capp's parents told authorities they have not seen him either. If Caracas, Venezuela UP). Government forces mopped up additional pockets of rebel opposition on the outskirts of Caracas today and President Marcos Perez Jim-inez declared the insurrection was crushed.

Government troops took a rebel radio station at Los Teques, about 23 miles from the capital, and used it to announce that the rebel garrison there had surrendered. Perez Jiminez said in a three-minute radio and television announcement this afternoon that the rebellion was over and that the death toll and property damage had been kept to a minimum. The army chief of staff, Gen. Romulo Fernendez, in a broadcast said the rebellious garrison at Marcay, center of the revolt, had been taken by government forces at 3:30 a.m. Fernandez added, however, that scattered pockets of rebels were being mopped up.

The army chief repeated the claim by President Perez Jiminez in a broadcast last night that the rest of the country the world's No. 2 oil producer was completely calm. Fernandez said that the rebel leaders fled by air. He reported that Aurelio Ferrero Tamay, commander of the Maracay garrison and governor of the state of gua, had been restored to his post along with his chief aide. Maracay is the capital of Aragua state.

Ferrero Tamay and other officers had been seized by rebel troops at 5 a.m. yesterday, Fernandez said.

The Russ Soldiers Bear Arms In Berlin Duty Berlin UP). Russian soldiers armed with machine pistols have suddenly been called out for duty in East Berlin. A tour of the city today showed the soldiers were guarding border crossing points between East and West Berlin, and patroling main streets.

It was the first time since the 1953 anti-Communist uprising of June 17 that Russian soldiers have patrolled the Soviet sector of Berlin. West Berlin border guards told newsmen they had heard a rumor the Russians were called out to intercept several Soviet officers or soldiers who had deserted from their units somewhere in East Germany. The western guards said the Russians appeared on the Soviet side which is normally guarded by German police. The number of East German police along the border was normal. The Germans made their usual routine checks of cars that passed between East and West Berlin, while Russians lounged nearby.

Allied officials in West Berlin said they had no inkling why the Russians were called out. West Berlin police heard that a Russian soldier had fled into the British sector of Berlin December 30 and was now being interrogated by British officials. British officials said they knew nothing of the report. One allied source said the Russians have sent a note to the Western powers asking for the return of a deserter or deserters. Allied officials declined comment.

The Russians have 400,000 men stationed in East Germany and Allied diplomats speculated that New Year's vodka had inspired a number of them to attempt escapes to the West. For New Year's Day By The Associated Press New Year traffic deaths set a record for a one-day celebration of that holiday. The total also exceeded the toll of 130 predicted by the National Safety Council. But it fell far short of the 225 lives lost on the streets and roads in the recent one-day Christmas observance. A tabulationtoday that included belated reports showed deaths between 6 p.m.

Tuesday and midnight Wednesday numbered 157 in traffic, 14 in fires and 20 in accidents of other types for an overall total of 191. California had 15 traffic fatalities. Ned H. Dearborn, NSC president, commented: "This toll is a jolting reminder that, along with the threats of war from overseas and of new and bigger Sputniks from outer spaces, this nation faces a relentless enemy from within that is making a mockery of our claims to leadership in civilized living. "How long can America endure or tolerate such a needless drain on its manpower? Let us hope that 1958 will bring a stop to this slaughter." The previous high for a one-day New Year celebration since World War II was 110 in the 1947-48 transition, while the low mark for a 30-hour New Year holiday in the same period was 93 in the 1946-47 transition-.

The all-time high in traffic deaths for any one-day holiday since World War II was 253 in Christmas 1948. Icy and snowy streets and high-ways in much of the midwest and rain in New England were considered added hazards to the heavy holiday travel. Indonesia Buys Arms From Russ Jakarta MB.

France has advised the United States it would like to add atomic submarines to its fleet. The state department said the French made known their interest in the wake of a pledge by Sacre-tary John Foster Dulles in Paris December 16 to "cooperate with interested members" of the Atlantic Pact in such areas. A spokesman quoted Dulles as saying at the Atlantic Pact summit meeting: "If the necessary legislation is obtained we will be able to cooperate with interested members of NATO in the development, production and fueling of nuclear propulsion and power plants for submarines and other military purposes." Press Officer Joseph Reap, in reporting the French interest, noted that the British government previously has discussed the possibility of American help in building atomic submarines for the British navy.
