Red leaders to see launch
MOSCOW—(UPI)—The Soviet Union, thwarted by Romania in its latest effort to secure a unified Communist condemnation of maverick Red China, today flew leaders of nine Communist countries to central Asia for a satellite launching.
The Romanian action was a sharp setback for the Kremlin which has grown increasingly restive in recent months to Peking's anti-Soviet propaganda attacks. Similar efforts in 1964 and 1965 to organize a united Communist front against Peking also failed.
U.S. wants Hanoi reply
UNITED NATIONS — (UPI)— The United States asked North Viet Nam last night for "some contact—some dialogue" to serve as stepping stones to peace in Viet Nam.
U. S. Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg told the last session of the General Assembly's policy debate that the United States has considered all "advice" from the 121 delegates on how to end the war.
new cracks developed in the government.
"We have considered this advice and, having considered it, we would like to know from Hanoi privately or publicly what would happen if we followed it," Goldberg said.
There were reports four more cabinet ministers were considering resigning despite pleas by Premier Nguyen Cao Ky, whose prestige would be severely damaged should he go to Manila without a unified government behind him.
INFORMED SOURCES said between 20 and 25 deputies in the newly elected 117-member constituent assembly also were threatening to resign in a crisis brought on by resentment by southerners in the government over the power and prestige of northerners—including Ky.
U.N. force investigates Israeli side
Ky called an emergency cabinet meeting and sources said after the meeting two of the seven had withdrawn their resignations.
JERUSALEM — (UPI) United Nations truce observers today fanned out along Israel's 45-mile frontier with Syria to investigate Soviet and Syrian charges Israel was massing troops for an attack on Syria.
A series of border clashes between Syria and Israel has raised tension to the highest point in years. Syria and some other nations have spoken of a war of "liberation" for Palestine. Israel made clear it would fight if necessary.
The inspectors today covered an area 10 miles wide along the entire border. A similar check will be made later on the Syrian side. The findings were expected to be submitted to the United Nations as soon as the inspection ended.

Johnson swings south
WELLINGTON, New Zealand— (UPI) —President Johnson opened his 25,000-mile six-nation tour with a wet but warm-hearted welcome to this ally "down under" today.
Pro-Viet Nam placards outnumbered anti-Viet Nam signs 12-2 along the Wellington motorcade route.
SIR BERNARD Fergusson, the British governor-general, told Johnson at an airport ceremony, that Americans and New Zealanders are fighting side by side in Viet Nam with "the common conviction that peace, freedom and stability in Southeast Asia are essential for the reign of international law and order."
The presidential swing began in a country whose government supports U.S. intervention in Viet Nam but whose opposition party
has attacked it. New Zealand has a 200-man artillery outfit fighting there. A general parliamentary election is to be held Nov. 29.

WASHINGTON—(UPI)—More than 6,000 striking workers returned to work today at General Electric's jet engine plant at Evendale, Chio, under a government Taft-Hartley injunction.
