ADENAUER MAKES PLEDGE HAMBURG, Germany (AP) Chancellor Konrad Adenauer says his new Democrat-Free Democrat government, after stormy negotiations. "will carry on the same foreign policy that was followed The 85-year-old West German leader gave this pledge Sunday night in Hamburg, where the Socialists increased their lead over his Christian Democrats in a local election. Rep. Choate Optimistic On Remap Democratic Whip Sees Agreement By Committee SPRINGFIELD. Ill.

(AP) With time getting short, a legislative committee today entered its third day of talks on how to draw a congressional map that would be acceptable to the Illinois General Assembly. During a weekend recess, the five Republican and five Democratic members of the conference committee had a chance to weigh proposals put forth Thursday and Friday and to get reaction of their party leaders. Some committee members were outright optimistic about the prospects of producing a compromise on the reapportionment issue. One of them, Rep. Clyde Choate of Anna, Democratic whip, said flatly he believed the committee would reach an agreement.

The committee is faced with the task of reaching agreement by the time the assembly returns to session Tuesday afternoon. Efforts to break the deadlock centered on the possibility of crelating one or more marginal districts covering parts of Chicago and Cook County. Such districts could not be counted as sure Democratic or Republican disstricts in an election. Most of the conferees agreed that if the Chicago-Cook County problem can be worked out, the downstate map would fall into place. If the conference committee fails to agree, a second committee could be named it would be the final one under the legislature's rules.

Without reapportionment, congressional candidates will run statewide next year because Illinois is losing one of its 25 seats. In addition to redistricting, a few other matters remain to be cleared away before the special session adjourns, probably this week. Gov. Otto Kerner's requests for a half-cent hike in the service occupation tax and for 18 additional Cook County Superior Court judges are hanging in the Republican-controled Senate. The judgeship bill is expected to pass and prospects for approval of the tax measure have improved in the past week.

Heart Cases, Lung Cancer Near Peaks By JOHN BARBOUR Associated Press Science Writer DETROIT -Dead men do tell tales. Deaths mark the great epidemics and changing ways of the living-and now they may indicate that heart disease and lung cancer are nearing the peak of their deadliness, a scientist said today. Dr. Reimert T. Ravenholt was a featured speaker at the opening session of the annual meeting of the American Public Health Association.

He told of a study of death records for the Seattle-King County area that went back 85 years. Recent records indicate that the death rates from coronary heart disease and lung cancer have ceased to increase for persons under 60, he said, and also indicate that "both these epidemics should reach a plateau or peak within 10 to 15 years." Dr. Ravenhold cited death statistics based on official records and newspapers dating back to 1876, compiled with the aid of University of Washington students. The records for the Seattle area told the story of changing times through the changing ways in which men met their death, he said. In the same way the study of more recent death statistics can shed light on modern diseases, said Dr.

Ravenholt, who is now Public Health Service consultant with the U.S. Embassy in Paris. From the statistics you can infer that lung cancer and heart disease are reaching their high points, he said.

Molotov Silent On Party Purge By PRESTON GROVER MOSCOW (AP) Former Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov disappeared into the secret depths of Soviet society Sunday as if he had been dropped into a well. Gray and aged, he came from Vienna by train with his gray and aging wife, to face a purge by which the Communist party hopes to wipe out a little more of the memory and a few more of the sins of the Stalin regime. He came clearly without restraint.

Not a public official came to greet him at the train. If he had chosen freedom, he could have remained abroad. A few plainclothes policemen showed up at the station, but they kept well back of the crowd of Western correspondents who Chief Justice Bristow Dies At Age 67 CHICAGO (AP) Chief Jus- tice George W. Bristow of the Illinois Supreme Court died of cancer in a hospital Sunday. He was 67.

Judge Bristow entered University of Illinois Hospital Oct. 25 for treatment of cancer of the pancreas and had been in critical condition since undergoing surgery Oct. 30. Funeral services will be held Tuesday in Paris, Edgar County. The death of Judge Bristow, a Republican, reduced the State Supreme Court to six.

The court was scheduled to convene today with Judge Joseph E. Daily of Peoria as acting chief justice. Judge Bristow was born Sept. 23, 1894, in the Pulaski County community of Grand Chain. He was graduated from the University of Illinois, but service in World War I interrupted his studies at Harvard Law School.

Completing his studies in a law office, Judge Bristow was admitte.1 to the Illinois Bar in 1920. That same year he was elected State's Attorney for Edgar County. The following year he was appointed Mastery in Chancery of the county, holding that post until 1927 when his election as judge of the Fifth Judicial Circuit began his 34-year career on the bench. Judge Bristow was appointed appellate judge of the Fourth Dis-trict of Illinois in 1942. He was elected to the State Supreme Court in 1952 and re-elected in 1960.

He became chief justice last month in the annual rotation of the supreme court's membership to the post. He had served as chief justice in 1954. Survivors include his widow, Beryl, whom he married in 1921; a son, Dr. David Bristow of Effingham, and two daughters, Alice and Cassandra. Judge Bristow lived 419 W.

Court Paris, Ill. Rayburn's Clarity Becomes Shorter BONHAM. (AP) House Speaker Sam Rayburn's periods of mental clarity are short now, Dr. Joe Risser said today. When asked how much clarity remains, Rayburn's physician said, "'he recognized me." came to question Molotov.

The questions were met by the same "nyet" with which he had beaten back approaches to East-West agreements after World War II. "Let's change the subject," said Stalin's longtime associate when asked about his reported expulsion from the party and Premier Khrushchev's denunciation of him at the recent Soviet Communist party congress. "We had a fine trip," said his wife, Paulina. "Many of the passengers came to our compartment to say 'goodbye and good Except for the foreign newsmen, only the couple's daughter, Svetlana, and her husband were on hand to greet them. Molotov, now 71, showed no outward concern at the question mark hangging over his future.

Seemingly relaxed, he talked with his daughter and son-in-law about their children. Before he left Vienna, Molotov indicated to Western correspondents that he might have something to say about the charges made against him in the party congress that he had participated in major purges of party officials under Stalin. Reports came through unofficial channels that expulsion from the party had already been voted by Molotov's party cell. The same reports said he had appealed to the supreme party court, the Control Commission. Soviet press officials, when asked about Molotov, pretended not to know that he had returned to Moscow.

Kennedy's Return Delayed By Fog WASHINGTON (AP)-President Kennedy, his return, somewhat delayed by fog, flew back the White House today after a Sunday visit at Camp David in Maryland's Catoctin Mountains. For the first time this fall, the President wore a topcoat, but he had no hat as he strode from the Army helicopter across the south lawn to his White House office. Kennedy was accompanied by his brother-in-law, Stephen Smith, and Charles Spalding. a friend and New York invetsment banker who spent Sunday with the Kennedys at Camp David. Because of fog, the White House said, the President had to drive down the mountain from Camp David into Thurmont- and take the ehlicopter from there.

The President, who leaves Thursday morning for a trip west, will hold no news conference this week. Mrs. Kennedy and their daughter Caroline, almost 4, remained at Camp David and probenly will drive back later today. PORTUGAL BOYCOTT FAILS LISBON, Portugal (AP) Premier Antonio Salazar's government reported today that an opposition boycott of Sunday's oneparty legislative election failed.

Gas Leak Wipes Out Hopes For '61 Man Orbit By HOWARD BENEDICT CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) -Spacecraft troubie has delayed an attempt to orbit a chimpanzee and virtually wiped out United 'States' hopes of orbiting a man this year. Project Mercury officials called off Tuesday's scheduled chimp launching after a test Sunday disclosed a gas leak in the space This necessitated removing the capsule's in flight control system. two-ton craft from atop the Atlas booster rocket, which is on the launching pad.

Inspection, repair and replacement will take at least a week, perhaps as much as two weeks. Authoritative sources reported the spacecraft trouble was a leak in the hydrogen peroxide gas system which controls the position of the vehicle in flight. The gas is highly corrosive and could have damaged electrical or other systems. Successful completion of the chimpanzee shot this week was almost a must if the National Aeronautics and Space Administration was to have a chance of rocketing a human astronaut into orbit in 1961. A minimum of four weeks is required between Mercury-Atlas launchings to qualify all systems.

Such a schedule can be met only if all checkouts are perfect, something not yet achieved in preparations for Mercury firings. Eight weeks have passed since an Atlas successfully hurled an unmanned capsule into orbit in September. Several minor problems with the complex missile and capsule stertched out the planned four-week checkout period for the chimpanzee shot. One project source reported: "We were down to the point where every day was important. Now, every hour is essential.

With fantastic luck we could still send a man up this year." Others were not so optimistic. Two Soviet cosmonauts orbited earlier this year. Two American astronauts took brief suborbital rocket rides. The plan calls for the Atlas to hurl the chimp-carrying capsule into orbit 100 to 150 miles above the earth at 17,400 miles an hour. After three sweeps around the globe, lasting hours, reverse rockets are to slow the vehicle for return to earth.

Parachuts are to ease it into the Atlantic Ocean about 1,000 miles southeast of Cape Canaveral. When the launching was postponed, a large part of the Atlantic Fleet, was being deployed across the Atlantic from Cape Canaveral to the African Coast to act as recovery forces.

OATIS UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.

(AP) -Congolese Foreign Minister Justin "Bomboko attacked Katanga Province's secession today and called on the United Nations to work more closely with the government to end "the present chaotic situation." He spoke to the Security Council after. Ethiopiarhad urged the use of U.N. force to help Congolese central army win back Katanga. The 11-nation council was opening its first Congo debate since last February. "My government," Bomboko said, "appeals to the United Nations to furnish direct.

assistance to, and real and effective cooperation with, government of the Congo. should be helped the. in maintaining law and order. "'The United Nations should give us the means to help us reorganize our police and security forces. When that has been done, we will be able to determine that the U.N.

action has been completed." Bomboko did not specify whether the U.N. assistance should extend to military help in ending the secession. But Ethiopian Ambassador Tesfaye Gebre-Egzy, speaking before him, made this point. "The United Nations," he declared, "should help the efforts of the central government forces in restoring law and order in the province of Katanga." Tesfaye also said the council should authorize acting SecretaryGeneral Thant to use force in getting rid of foreign mercenaries in Katanga. Without these mercenaries, he said, Katanga President Moise Tshombe and foreign interests bolstering him "would Bomboko told the council tiating with Tshombe to end the secession is useless because "he will accept no negotiations unless his independence is He said the problem of Katanga "was created wholly by foreigners" to protect their economic interests and was fostered in the beginning by.

Belgian paratroops. He told council members the majority of the inhabitants of Katanga were against the secession. Monkey Found After Explosion CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) -Searchers have found the body of a small squirrel monkey killed in the explosion of an Atlas missile. The Atlas, with the 11-pound monkey named Goliath in its nose, blew up 30 seconds after it was launched Friday on an intended 5.000-mile test flight.

'Large pieces of the wreck were retrieved from the floor of the Atlantic Ocean about 100 yards offshore. Goliath's body. discovered in the tangled debris Sunday, was unmarked except for a spot of blood on the head. fro Police Guard Placed Around Reporter' sHome CHICAGO (AP) A 24-hour police guard has been placed around the home of a veteran crime reporter after he traded punches with a reputed underworld loan shark, who allegedly brandished gun and threatened to kill the reporter and his family. Sam DeStefano, 51, was arrest-1 ed by police in his North Side home Sunday and charged with assault with intent to kill, assault with a deadly weapon.

and cious mischief. William Doherty, 50, a Chicago Tribune police reporter, accused DeStefano of socking him in the face, smashing all the windows in his auto, chasing him down a street with a gun and threatening to kill him and his family. DeStefano apparently was anvered about recent newspaper stories concerning him, police said. DeStefano was released on 500 bond. 'Police said his record includes convictions and prison terms for bank robbery and burglary.

Doherty told police he visted DeStefano's home to check reports DeStefano had been missing for a week. Doherty told police this story: DeStefano's wife, Anita, met Doherty at the front door of the DeStefano home, invited him in and summoned her husband. DeStefano appeared and punched Doherty in the face. Doherty returned the blow, knocking DeStefano across the room. Then DeStefano ran into the kitchen where Doherty feared he kept a gun.

Doherty dashed out of the house and went to a nearby store where he telephoned the Tribune. Tribune deskmen relayed the call to police and Doherty went outside the store to wait for a squad car. Moments later, DeStefano drove up in a car, pulled down the window and pointed a gun at Doherty. The newsmen quoted DeStefano as saying: "I'm going to kill you and I'm going to kill every member of your family. I'll kill you if it's the last thing I Doherty fled.

Doherty and several policemen later returned to DeStefano's home and found DeStefano in the garage shouting threats. They also found all the windows smashed out of Doherty's car, which was parked nearby. In an Aug. 21 interview, DeStefano told Doherty he loaned money at high interest rates to both hoodlums and legitimate borrowers. DeStefano also was quoted as saying he sometimes collected 20 per cent interest on loans to criminals to pay for attorneys and, bondsmen.

There was no immediate indication from Moscow whether the offer would be accepted. Valerian Zorin, chief Soviet delegate to the United Nations, indicated last week the chances might be slim. He said a test ban treaty must be worked out' within the framework of general disarmament. The notes were delivered to the Soviet Foreign Ministry in Moscow this morning. The American proposal said the U.S.

government would consider any date earlier than Nov. 28-- the Soviets might propose for opening the talks. Resumption of the conferences would meet a stipulation laid down by a U.N. resolution calling for new efforts on an agreement to halt testing. The resolution asked for a progress report no later than Dec.

14. Since Sept. 1, the Soviets have exploded more than 30 nuclear devices and including 25- and 50- megaton superbombs. The United States has tested at least four nuclear devices underground and has made preparations to resume "atmospheric tests. The previous talks bogged down largely over the American and British desire for a test ban with inspection controls and Soviet insistence on handling the stoppage as part of an over-all disarmament agreement.

The U.S. 'note pointed out that a communique issued when the talks were halted called for a recess until after completion of U.N. General Assembly debate on nuclear testing. In a statement issued by the State Department after the text of the note was made public, the department accused Soviet Premier Khrushchev of having "conveniently the fact that it was the Soviet Union and not the Western nuclear powers which resumed testing "in an effort to intimidate and terrorize the world." Press officer Francis W. Tully, speaking the department, restated the U.S.

position when he said that this country not abandon the objective of agreement on a comprehensive test ban treaty." But, Tully continued, the United States "will pursue its own program of carefully circumscribed testing until such an agreement is Tully's statement described the recent Soviet testing series as "the single most intensive testing program in history." The series totaled an approximate energy yield of 120 megatons, or 120 million tons of TNT. Officials said that there was no significance in choosing the Nov. 28 date. Nehru Makes Bid For Tolerance LOS ANGELES (AP) Prime Minister Nehru of India, known for his neutralist stand, urged an audience of film celebrities to exercise international tolerance and compassion. you must not give up what you think is Nehru said.

"To surrender to evil is a bad thing." There is always room, however, a measure of tolerance even for those with whom we may not fully agree," he said. Nehru wound up a 20-hour day Sunday night by addressing a dinner attended 150 Hollywood personalities. Eric Johnston, president of the Motion Picture Association of America, was his host. Earlier, Nehru toured Disneyland. "It was rather wonderful," he admitted.

Even so, he was reserved as he spent hours seeing the park with Walt Disney. Nehru smiled from time to time but had little to say. Nehru seemed most at home with the many children who flocked to old-style electric car in the $30-million magic kingdom. He put his arm around a few, shook hands with some and signed an occasional autograph..
