Argentine Rebels Vow To 'Fight On'
BUENOS AIRES — (UPI) — a rebel radio vowed today that diehard foes of ousted ex-president Juan D. Peron will "fight on" despite the apparent collapse of their effort to overthrow the government
Maj. Gen. Juan C. Ongania, the army commander, declared last night that continued resistance by his men will be "absolutely repressed."
The rebel threat was broadcast even as Rear Adm. Eladio Vasquez, commander of the high seas fleet, held peace talks with leaders of the army and air force.
A SCORE of rebel officers had fled to Uruguay or Chile, and it appeared that effective resistance had ceased. Some rebellious army units were still holding out, however, and anti-Peronist gunmen roamed the streets of Buenos Aires last night.
A broadcast from a hidden radio station spoke of continued resistance by the "Patagonian Revolutionary Command," suggesting the rebels might intend to hole up in the bleak southern territory of Patagonia.
ONGANIA SAID a motorized infantry regiment, an artillery group and two motorized engineer battalions had ignored orders to lay down their arms. The rebel units were in widely separated areas, however, and there appeared to be little likelihood of their offering concerted resistance.
AT LEAST 25 men had been killed and 50 wounded in two days of scattered fighting, limited for the most part to air attacks.
Two volleys of gunfire were heard during the night near the Argentine "White House." There was no report of casualties.
A tank-led rebel troop column numbering about 700 men left the city of Junin last night for an unannounced destination.
The back of the revolt was broken yesterday when the navy ordered rebels in its ranks to cease fire. The revolt was led by retired army generals, but most of their supporters were sailors or marines.
Vasquez conferred for hours last night with leaders of the army and air force. He was reported resisting demands for reductions in the size of the marine corps and the navy's air arm and the retirement of a number of admirals.
THE GOVERNMENT took ample precautions against further trouble even though peace talks were being held.
The principal center of action in the two-day-old revolt was the Punta Indio naval air station. Rebel-piloted planes from the base pounded a government tank column with rockets and light bombs for 10 hours Monday.
Army tommygunners stood guard early today at the Buenos Aires post office, nerve center of Argentine communications.
When the military conference broke up, air secretary Eduardo McLoughlin announced that he and some of his officers would spend the night at the air ministry.
Defense Minister Jose M. Astigua, who is acting also as navy secretary, said he would spend the night at the "White House."
THE AIR FORCE retaliated yesterday with a raid on the airbase in

The revolt was a reflection of military opposition to the government's plan to let supporters of Peron participate in the election scheduled June 23.
which 24 planes were destroyed on the ground. The rebels abandoned the base after the attack, and government troops captured 9 more planes intact.
WASHINGTON — (UPI) - President Kennedy has blocked a threatened nationwide railroad strike for at least 60 days by appointing a three-man emergency board to investigate the dispute over work rules.
For the railroads, it is a question whether they will be allowed to eliminate jobs which have become unnecessary because of technological advances. They estimate that the rule changes would save about $600 million a year at a time when economies are needed to meet ever-stiffening competition from other forms of transportation.
The navy ordered its men to "cease operations" soon after the government air raid on Punta Indie
The Peronists are the nation's strongest political force, and many military men believe they will sweep the June general election just as they did in the since-annulled local elections a year ago.
Threatened Strike Blocked by JFK
THE CONTROVERSY over "featherbedding" reached the showdown stage when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the companies were free to abolish thousands of jobs previously protected by long-standing union rules.
The President named the fact-finding board last night in the final step available under the National Railway Labor Act to prevent a walkout. The action automatically bars a strike for 60 days.
Five operating unions representing about 200,000 railroad workers view the dispute as a question whether their members will be able to continue working at the only jobs they know.

Under changes the companies propose, between 65,000 and 80,000 jobs would be eliminated.

829 Entries Listed For Music Festival
The Northeast Kansas district music festival will be held at KU Friday and Saturday with 829 group and individual entries scheduled to perform.

Cities Exhibit Now On Display
The collection, which is sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Services, provides a look at the industrial and commercial architecture which evolved in America during the Industrial Revolution. It will be on display until April 9.
"The American City in the nineteenth century." That is the title given to a collection of 50 color lithographic prints and water color paintings now on display in Marvin Hall.
The collection shows interior and exterior views of early plants and commercial establishments where iron, rubber, glass, furniture, matches, gun powder, straw hats, and watches were produced and marketed.
DAVID HERMANSEN, assistant professor of architecture, said the collection gives a cross section of urban and rural patterns of the period.
Hermansen explained that, although the artists sometimes took liberties with the reproductions, the pictures are good.
He said one of the outstanding architects of nineteenth century America was H. H. Richardson.
Artists such as Currier and Ives, J. C. Wild, and J. H. Bufford are represented.
Thursday, April 4. 1963
Describing Richardson as a romanticist, Prof. Hermansen said the architect brought color, vibrancy, and masculinity to the previously pale pallid, neo-classical buildings of the early nineteenth century.
SOME OF the lithographs include Leavenworth City, Kansas Territory; San Francisco taken from Telegraph Hill; New Orleans; a view of the public garden and Boston Common; Broadway, New York; Virginia City, Va.; Milwaukee Water Works, and Frederick Female Seminary, Frederick City, Md.
Prof. Hermanssen said the display provides an insight into American heritage and an object for aesthetic and architectural appreciation.
The parade will begin at 10 a.m. following a route from 11th street north on Massachusetts to seventh street.
India Arms Offer ThreattoRedUnity
Disclosure of the offer from President Tito was considered certain by political observers here to trigger a fresh outcry from Peking and to aggravate further the strained relations between Communist China and Russia.
NEW DELHI, India — (UPI) — A Yugoslav offer of arms to India for use against Red China posed a new threat to Communist camp unity today.
The Indian Foreign Office disclosed the Yugoslav offer of arms and military equipment last night. It said the material was intended for defense against Red Chinese aggression.
COMMUNIST CHINA has heaped scorn on Yugoslavia as "revisionist" and a traitor to the Communist cause in pursuing an independent path to communism. But Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev has defended Tito's regime.
The Kremlin's growing friendship with Tito has been one of the chief points of dispute between Peking and Moscow.
Five floats have been entered in the KU Relays parade April 20.
Five Floats Entered In Relays Parade
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce will award a $50 gift certificate to each of the two sponsoring living groups of the first place float.
After the parade, the floats will be displayed in the parking lot behind the Kansas Union, Zone X.
The theme for this year's parade is "Legendary Characters."
Joseph R. Pearson Hall and Hashinger Hall are entering a float on the theme "Zeus' Champion." Lambda Chi Alpha and Alpha Phi are using "The Tortoise and the Hare" as their theme. Templin Hall and Lewis Hall will enter a float built around "Casey Jones."
The second place winners will receive plaques.
Tau Kappa Epsilon and Delta Delta have not yet decided upon a theme. Phi Kappa Sigma will enter a theme about "Sadie Hawkins Day." However, the co-sponsor has not been announced.
A SPOKESMAN said the offer from Belgrade was in response to an Indian request to "friendly countries" for military resistance.
The request was sent out last October during a massive Communist Chinese offensive in the Ladakh and Northeast Frontier Agency sections of India's northern frontier with China.
"Details of the Yugoslav offer presently are being worked out," the spokesman said.
India and Red China have been locked in a dispute over portions of border territory. Fighting in the mountains has stopped, but the two governments so far have failed to agree on terms for negotiation of a settlement despite mediation efforts by several neutral countries.
IN RESPONSE to India's request for help, the United States and Britain have provided military equipment and have discussed plans with Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru's government for air protection in the future.
Russia, which long has wooed India with large-scale economic aid, decided to go ahead with an agreement to set up a jet fighter factory in India despite Nehru's dispute with Peking. Some Soviet Migs have been sent here as part of the deal.
The Peking regime has protested o Moscow about the Mig deal and is denounced the Anglo-American military help as an "imperialist plot" o penetrate into Asia.
THE CHINESE REDS repeatedly have chastised Yugoslavia for its widespread trade with the West, its frequent alignment with the neutralist countries, and its historical enmity towards Albania, Peking's tiny Balkan ally.
Khrushchev has rejected Peking's charges against Tito in the growing ideological and political split of the Communist world. A Soviet note which suggested Tuesday that Peking send a high-level delegation to Moscow to talk over differences made it clear that the Russians would not change their tone on Yugoslavia.
The Soviet News Agency Tass reported yesterday that Khrushchev had made a new gesture of friendship toward Yugoslavia. The premier cordially received the head of a Yugoslav trade union delegation at his Black Sea retreat, the agency said.
The Kremlin's argument is that Yugoslavia is a socialist country and efforts should be made to keep it in the Communist fold.
