Soviet asks summit
VATICAN CITY — (UPI)—Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko, at a news conference after a Vatican meeting, called for a European summit conference to maintain peace in Europe and ease world tensions. He presumably would exclude the United States from the meeting in the Russian belief Europe's problems are its own.
Gromyko told newsmen, "I would like to underline the importance of a European conference to discuss European security.
"IT IS VERY IMPORTANT that this conference be held," he said. "The conference does not necessarily mean a solution to these problems, but first we must agree to meet to discuss them."
Asked whether the United States should be invited, he avoided a direct reply, saying, "the problem should be of interest above all to Europe."
This apparently meant he advocated such a conference without participation by the United States.
Pope Paul VI and Gromyko met today in an historic conference and agreed that "men must unite to work for the one goal of peace, no matter what their political feelings or ideologies."
IN THEIR 45-MINUTE meeting, unusually long for such a visit, they discussed world problems, including how to bring peace to Viet Nam. It was the
first meeting of a high ranking Communist official of any nation with a Roman Catholic pontiff and the emphasis was on peace.
The Vatican issued only a brief, one paragraph communique saying the two men had met, but Gromyko told newsmen, "We agreed that men must unite to work for the one goal of peace, no matter what their political feelings or ideologies." He refused to discuss the meeting further.
Many observers believed the meeting with the Communist official might have a profound influence on relations between the church and Communist governments in other Iron Curtain countries.
De Gaulle balks at LBJ meeting
PARIS — (UPI) — President Charles de Gaulle does not want to try to settle his NATO dispute with the United States in a face-to-face confrontation with President Johnson, informed sources said today.
Sen. Mike Mansfield, D-Mont., said in a Senate speech in Washington Monday that the two leaders should not hesitate to meet personally in an effort to prevent an "estrangement" between the United States and France over De Gaulle's decision to pull French military forces out of NATO and to kick foreign troops out of France.
BUT THE SOURCES said De Gaulle considers that the question can be handled through normal diplomatic channels. De Gaulle would be unlikely to accept a face-to-face meeting with Johnson, they said.
De Gaulle, in serving notice that France was quitting NATO, stressed that France was not leaving the North Atlantic Alliance.

It was not certain whether police and army authorities would honor the medieval tradition of "university autonomy."
A MOB OF 2,000 to 3,000 law students stormed the university administration building Tuesday and forced Rector President Ignacio Chavez to resign under the threat of death. The Mexican television network reported that at least 35 other members of the university staff were forced to resign.
The only casualty reported Tuesday was a student who strike leaders said had been pistol-whipped by a campus security official. They said the student was in "very serious" condition in the university hospital.
