Border war causes Russians to retract Cambodian alliance
MOSCOW (AP)—The Soviet Union appears to be headed toward a permanent diplomatic break with Cambodia, the nation whose take-over by the Communists in 1975 was praised first by the Soviet Union.
Cambodia's border war with Vietnam, a close Soviet ally, has hastened the collapse of the South-Soviet diplomats had been hining since early December—well before the border fighting had reached a peak—that would be downward for a variety of other reasons.
SINCE 1975, Cambodia reportedly has spurned Soviet offers of economic aid,
citing the Soviet Union's past recognition of the pro-Western Cambodia government of Lon Nol, who was ousted by the Communists. The Cambodia Communists never permitted the Soviets to open an embassy in Phnom Penh, the Cambodian capital, and pulled all their diplomats out of Moscow last summer.
When the long-simmering Cambian-Vietnamese border war escalated last year, the Soviet Union's new services began reprinting foreign reports that accused Cambodia of aggression and of receiving help from Communist China.
Cambodian situation fit the pattern of the Sino-Soviet rivalry. The Soviet Union denied an accusation Jan. 8 by President Jimmy Carter's national security adviser, Zhigwind Brezeinzki, that the border war was a Sino-Soviet battle that Soviets has printed foreign reports that the Cambodians are using Chinese weapons.
DEVELOPMENTS IN the Soviet-
The Soviets openly support Vietnam's call for immediate negotiations on a cease-fire agreement. Cambodia says Vietnamese troops must first leave Cambodian soil before it will consider talks about a truce.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- United Mine Workers President Arnold Miller summoned his union's berging council to Washington yesterday as negotiators neared agreement on contract terms that could end the 50-day-old coal strike. But as the talks continued, fresh violence was reported in the coal fields.
Negotiators for the UMW and the Bituminous Coal Operators Association met through the day to narrow their differences on wages and other economic issues.
Coal strike violence increases; end near
MILLER SCHEDULED a meeting this morning of the union's bargaining council, which must approve any contract before a vote can be taken by the rank and file.
"I would say they've reached a tentative agreement," John Guzek, president of the U.S. military's District 6, North Carolina said. "I am very proud that Miller's call also can be an indication
that union bargainers had reached "a point where they can't bargain any further and need to quit."
In 1974 the council rejected one proposed contract before accepting a second pact.
THE NEW VIOLENCE occurred in Western Pennsylvania, where about 80 pickets identified by police as UMW members ripped out telephones, overturned a pickup truck and smashed other equipment of the Dixville Mining Co. in Indiana County.
As many as 600 pickets rallied at C&K Coal Co. S's Riversburg coal dumping
facilities in Clarion County Wednesday night, causing an estimated $30,000 damage.
Three state troopers sustained mun-
 injuries in a confrontation with pickets
No arrests were reported in either incident, but two Indiana County men were arrested on a college campus for allegedly setting fire to the school's coal stockpiles.
Power companies serving Maryland, Ohio, Kentucky, Virginia and West Virginia have asked customers to cut back on heat due to coal shortages caused by the strike.
