Warren E. tactic" in demanding a House pointed by himself. Carnahan was one of 63 plan Wednesday whereby the governor was urged to call a special session on reapportionment with no strings attached. But the governor said later he would not call a session unless he was assured the legislature would support a constitutional amendmennt drawn to his specifications on reapportionment of the House--a bipartisan commission like the one which just this week completed redistricting of the state Senate.

Under Hearnes' plan the two major party committees would select panels of 10 each. Then the governor would choose five from each panel to do the job. Carnahan, in a speech prepared for a meeting of the State Association of County Judges, called it "a shocking tactic and one which should be abandoned immediately in the interest of sound government. "I consider this approach an abuse of the executive's power to call a special session. Is the legislative branch to be permitted to deliberate only if it promises to rubber stamp the governor's plan?" The governor said, "The objective of -the legislature, the governor and the peopleshould be to put forward the best possible solution to the reapportionment problem.

this does not necessarily Rep. Mel. Carnahan, D-Phelps the Missouri House, accused fellow Hearnes Thursday, of a "shocking reapportionment commission: ap- House Democrats who supported a mean the adoption of the governor's entire plan or the plan suggested by House leaders." SITTERLEY Carnahan and Speaker Thomas D. Graham, D-Cole County, favored a bipartisan commission chosen by members of the two parties in the House. But Hearnes wouldn't buy that.

Nor would he go along Wednesday with the uncommitted special session. So, with the voters having rejected Aug. 17 the legislative plan of reapportionment of the House by the House, plus the impasse between Hearnes and the House on how the problem should be solved, the immediate future has in store: 1.: A second Democratic meeting Sunday, called by the House caucus chairman, Rep. Harry Raiffie, D-St. Louis, who said Speaker Graham had no right to call such a caucus as was held Wednesday.

2. A caucus of the 40 Republican minority members Monday to see whose side they will be on. If no acceptable solution is reached by the House members and the governor, the federal court could redistrict the House by itself or could let the House candidates run at large next year.

JOSEPH, PAPERS CLOSE IN NEW YORK NEW YORK (AP)-The New York Times suspended publication Thursday night in the face of a strike by the AFL-CIO New York Newspaper Guild, and six others of the city's major dailies closed down in sympathy and support. It was the first widespread New York city newspaper blackout since the 16-week strike of 1962-63, and grew out of a bitter deadlock with the guild over automation and job security, key economic issues in the industry. Peace talks between the union and The Times were continuing.

The suspension of publication by the seven newspapers idled 17,000 employes, and choked off a combined daily circulation 4.4 million. Their combined Sunday circulation is 6 million.

The mayor asked the city legal department to investigate the possibility of raising the pay of employes of other departments, also. The bill sponsored by Councilman Welsh provides for the amending of the ordinance in which wage rates are set by increasing the monthly compensation for each employe by $12. This raise, if approved by the council, would go into effect after Oct. 15. Funds for these increases presumably would come from a transfer from the contingent reserve fund.

The council day approved the transfer of $26,000 from this fund to make possible the pay raises for police and fire departments per- sonnel.

A blunt Chinese note handed to a post-midnight summons to the Foreign Office did not specify the nature of the "grave consequences. of But the Chinese have struck hard before in border conflicts with India, rolling the Indians back seriously in the heavy fighting of 1962.

U.S. officials in Washington watched the situation anxiously. Diplomatic efforts for a peaceful solution of the India-Pakistan war over Kashmir, meanwhile, had a further Thursday. The Indians gave a cold reception to a suggestion by U.N. Secretary-General Thant for a direct meeting of Indian Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri and Pakistani President Mohammed Ayub Khan, "It would be like Churchill meeting Hitler during the Battle of Britain," an Indian official commented.

Little fighting was reported from the fronts Thursday, but Indian patrols probed the inner defenses of Lahore, West Pakistan's second-largest city. Sikkim, a princely protectorate of India, lies 1,000 miles east of the main area of IndianPakistani fighting. Its queen, crowned last April, is the former Hope Cooke of New York and Boston.

The White House had ordered all-out search for the barge, carrying 600 tons of deadly chlorine, when it was reported missing Sunday in the aftermath of Hurricane Betsy. Col.

Bowen said the Engineers Corps was moving to reopen the Mississippi to navigation. Bowen said the missing barge was located about two miles below the Port Allen locks near Baton Rouge. Authorities said there was enough chlorine in the barge to kill 40,000 persons if released in a heavily populated area. (By the Associated Press) The queen of Sikkim is the former Hope Cooke of New York and Boston, who was enthroned with her husband last April 4. The royal couple rule over a mountainous 'state of 2,800 square miles high the Himalayas, 350 miles north of Calcutta.

Their 160,000 subjects are mostly nomad herdsmen. The 25-year-old American was the first non-Sikkimese to marry into the ruling family. She met her husband, Palden Thondup Namgyal, then heir apparent to the throne, in 1961 in Darjeeling, where she was studying Buddhism. They were married at Gangtok in 1963 and now have a son. He has two half-brothers.

She wears Sikkimese dress and is studying the Sikkimese languages. She continues as an Episcopalian, but says her children will adopt their father's Buddhist faith. The queen was reported popular with her subjects, but there have been unkind whispers. "She has been cleverly planted in this highly strategic state by the Pentagon so it can use Sikkim slowly as another window over China, to the northeast," said one bazaar rumor in circulation last May. China told India Friday to pull claimed by Peking in three was aimed at helping Paki- an Indian envoy in Peking in government to the Chinese demand, the first ultimatum by Peking in a long daily exchange border protests.

In recent days, China has waged a war of nerves against India in apparent support of Pakistan. On Sept. 8 Peking demanded that India dismantle all military structures "built beyond or on the China-Sikkim border." There was no time limit in that demand, however. In a reply Sept. 12, India told Peking that India's "unfortunate relations" with Pakistan had nothing to do with the China-India border situation.

China is the only major power that has taken sides in the Indian-Pakistan conflict. Other capitals, including Moscow, have proposed a cease-fire. In Washington, a State Department spokesman said the United States is very concerned over possible extension of the -Pakistan war. The tough new Chinese diplomatic move came a few hours after Prime Minister Shastri told his Parliament that Pakistan "is intending to continue the fight." He called on India's millions to "cheerfully undergo hardships." U.N. COUNCIL MEETS TODAY UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.

(AP) -The U.N. Security Council meets at 8:30 a.m. (CST) today to hear Secretary General Thant's report on his failure to get a ceasefire in the India-Pakistan conflict and what he plans now. Thant said in a statement at Kennedy Airport Thursday that his talks with government officials of the two nations had convinced him that both sides desired to stop fighting and find a peaceful solution. He said this encouraged him "to continue to work toward a full compliance with the Security Council call for a ceasefire." He also made a preliminary report to the council in which he outlined his step-by-step efforts during his mission to the two capitals.

Peking's ultimatum that the Indians abandon a number of border posts within three days threatened direct involvement of U.S. strategic interests in the India-Pakistan war over Kashmir. So far, Washington has attempted to preserve complete neutrality in this conflict. Direct Communist Chinese military intervention would inject a major and frightening new element into the situation since the United States is pledged to try to stem any further Red advances in Southeast Asia. It would present a major di- to U.S.

policy makers, who already are wrestling with a frustrating anti-Communist conflict in Viet Nam. There was no immediate onthe-record reaction from the White House or State Department. However, officials privately indicated the belief that Peking's demand for India to pull out of fortified positions in a disputed area near the Sikkim protectorate increased the possibility of direct military conflict between the two major Asian The United States gave India $200 million worth of military equipment to strengthen her borders with Red China after the 1962 Chinese attacks drove the Indians out of disputed border territory.

It has been understood that British V-bombers based in Malaysia would provide the principal initial help for India in the event of a major Chinese assault.

A successful Chinese penetration of India in any depth would out-flank U.S. forces in Viet Nam and imperil the anti-Communist position in Thailand and Malaysia. However, if there should be continued and large scale warfare, it is understood between Washington and London that the United States at some point probably would have to help.
