Premier Vasco Gonçalves of Portugal, under overwhelming military and civilian pressure to resign because of his pro-Communist policies, made a fighting speech before 5,000 cheering Communists and asked for confidence from “patriots, progressive people and democrats.” The Premier, who acknowledged last Saturday that he was having trouble governing, went into the industrial suburb of Almada, across the Tagus River from Lisbon, to make his stand at a rally officially sponsored by the country’s single labor organization, now controlled by the Communist party. He said the choice was not between him and another man but between revolutionary socialism and bourgeois and fascist forces bent on keeping their privileges against the interests of the workers. Meanwhile, his opponents continued to seek a way to oust him and end what they consider is the danger of a Communist take‐over in Portugal. General Gonçalves said Saturday night after a Cabinet meeting that the minimum conditions for his government to continue had not been satisfied and pointed to the divisions within the armed forces and to the fighting among political parties. He then appealed to the people to demand unity in his favor.
Portuguese newsmen have started to fight against Communist’ domination of Lisbon’s main news organizations. Thirty journalists of the state‐owned daily Diario de Noticias have denounced the pro-Communist line of the newspaper and the case was taken up today in a staff meeting. Diario de Noticias denounced the 30 as a “small group of provocateurs” and “splitters” although they represent the majority of the newspaper’s staff of 54 journalists. The newly elected leadership of the Journalists Union supported the 30 rebels in “their struggle against the control and censorship exercised by the social fascist party,” as the pro-Soviet Communist party is called in Maoist circles here.
Thousands of farmers went on a rampage today in Angra do Heroismo on the island of Terceira in the Azores, destroying the offices of leftwing parties and beating up Communists in the street. Demonstrators tried to lynch a Communist sympathizer near the blazing Communist head quarters, but he escaped. Three other members of the Portuguese Democratic Movement, a pro‐Communist group, were kicked and beaten. At least 15 people were injured in the incidents.
In a daring flight from West Germany into Czechoslovakia, an American civilian in a helicopter flew three East Germans to the West on Sunday. The pilot, Barry Meeker, said that ground fire forced him to leave behind an injured East German woman and a friend of his at whose request, he said, he had undertaken the rescue mission. The helicopter landed in Traunstein, in the Bavarian Alps near the Austrian border and 50 miles east of Munich.
One of Russia’s most advanced long-range missiles has had two consecutive flight failures, raising the possibility of problems with the recently deployed nuclear weapon, according to U.S. intelligence sources. The sources reported that the SS-19 missiles flopped during training launches in June and July after 25 flawless tests over the past two years. The failures occurred in the missile’s second stage. The SS-19 has a range of about 6,300 miles and is rated by U.S. experts as the most successful of the new Soviet intercontinental ballistic missiles.
Spain has asked the United States to reduce its military presence there, Spanish diplomatic sources said. The report came as the ninth round of talks to renew a bases agreement opened in Madrid. Spain is seeking large quantities of advanced military equipment and wants formal recognition of its role in Western defense.
A bomb blew out a window in the Algerian Embassy in Rome and damaged a car parked outside the building. Bombs were also found outside the Algerian embassies in Bonn and London. Rome police found a message in a telephone booth signed “Opposition Algerienne,” which said the bombing in the Italian capital was a protest against the Algerian government.
Naples police fired tear gas to break up a crowd of about 150 striking railwaymen as Italy’s rail and air services were disrupted in several places by strikes. Small unions outside the main trade union organizations, seeking an independent bargaining role, called the strikes, sharpening fears of an autumn of industrial unrest. There were also disruptions on national air routes due to surprise strikes by pilots.
Premier Yitzhak Rabin of Israel gave Parliament a guardedly hopeful assessment of the outlook for Secretary of State Kissinger’s resumption this week of shuttle diplomacy between Jerusalem and Cairo, but he warned against undue optimism. “It is still too early to determine that the negotiations to be conducted by Dr. Kissinger in our region will indeed be successful,” Mr. Rabin said at a session that was dominated by hostile interjections from the conservative Opposition Likud Party. “The shuttle negotiations are not intended to celebrate the end of the process or to put the seal on an agreement that has already been attained,” he added. “There has indeed been progress on important clauses. But there are also clauses of great importance on which agreement has not yet been reached.”
Palestinian spokesmen are sharply attacking what appears to be an imminent agreement between Egypt and Israel for another troop disengagement in Sinai. “This American agreement, which now seems to be getting into the stage of actual implementation, poses the greatest danger to the nationalist cause — that is, the Arab struggle with Zionism — since the June, 1967, war,” commented Zuhair Mohsen, a Palestinian leader. Mr. Mohsen is head of the Palestinian Liberation Organization’s military department and is also leader of the Syrian-backed As-Saiqa guerrilla group, which often speaks for Damascus on such sensitive issues as relations with Egypt. The Government of President Hafez al‐Assad, which is known to fear that a Sinai disengagement accord will detach Egypt from the Arab “confrontation” with Israel, has refrained from open criticism of the American-sponsored negotiations.
Libya proclaimed a new law imposing the death sentence on anyone who tries to overthrow the government or belongs to an illegal organization, according to the Iraqi News Agency. The report followed Cairo press accounts of an attempted coup against Libya’s leader, Colonel Moammar Qaddafi. Egypt has reported four coup attempts against Qaddafi in the past month.
The Indian Government has cut off the telephone and the Telex machine at The New York Times bureau in New Delhi. The government said today that it had acted because William Borders, the Times’ resident correspondent, had violated its self-censorship rules. The telephone service at Mr. Borders’ home was also cut off. H. J. d’Penha, the chief censor in the Ministry of Information, told Mr. Borders that he had “no idea” when the government would restore any of the lines, which were all cut on Saturday afternoon. The government imposed a strict set of guidelines for news reporting in the current state of emergency, which was declared on June 26. It has asked foreign correspondents here to censor their own dispatches in conformity with the guidelines.
Prime Minister Indira Gandhi delivered a strongly worded and personal tribute tonight to Sheik Mujibur Rahman, the President of neighboring Bangladesh who was killed in a military coup d’état Friday. “He was dedicated to peace and friendship on the subcontinent,” Prime Minister Gandhi said, in a statement sent to a public memorial rally here, her first public comment on the events in Bangladesh. “People of India hold him in deep respect and affection as a friend of this country,” she said. “We join in expressing sorrow over his tragic death.” It was India’s defeat of Pakistan in the 1971 war that insured the independence of Bangladesh, under Sheik Mujib, and he was a fast friend and ally. His ouster and the signs that the new Government in Dacca is moving out of India’s political orbit and closer to Pakistan are thought to be matter of considerable concern here in the Indian capital.
China and Cambodia signed an agreement on economic and technical cooperation today, the Chinese press agency reported, after a Cambodian delegation returned to Peking from an unexplained visit to a North China port. No details of the agreement, the first to be reached by the new Communist regime, were made public. But last night at a dinner, Khieu Samphan, the ranking Cambodian Deputy Premier who heads the delegation, expressed gratitude for China’s “unconditional gratis aid.” There was no word about Prince Norodom Sihanouk, the nominal head of state, who has been in North Korea for three months after a long exile in Peking.
China has begun what appears to be an important drive to end factional bickering and labor unrest like the events that recently led Peking to send more than 10,000 troops into factories in the coastal city of Hangchow, broadcasts from the provinces indicate. According to the unusually candid broadcasts, these factional and labor troubles have been “detrimental” to production in some areas. One radio report from Heilungkiang Province, a major industrial area in the northeast, said that though “only a handful of persons” were to blame, “nonetheless factionalism has greatly disrupted and undermined our revolution and production.” Analysts here believe the new drive is not a separate campaign but represents an intensification of a program begun earlier this year to promote production and achieve stability and unity. These goals were enunciated at the National People’s Congress last January by Premier Chou En‐lai, who said that China must become a “powerful, modern socialist country” by the end of the century.
A U.S. Customs Service helicopter, aiding an air-sea rescue search, came across a 40-ton “mountain” of bricked marijuana about the size of a railroad freight car on the eastern tip of Grand Bahamas Island. Bahamian police were flown to the cache in what may be the largest such seizure in history. There was speculation the marijuana, valued at $22 million, had been unloaded from a ship.
Clashes between guerrillas and government troops left eight persons dead in different parts of Argentina, authorities reported in Buenos Aires. Six guerrillas and one army noncommissioned officer were killed in fighting near Tucuman, 800 miles north of Buenos Aires. In another action in the Buenos Aires suburb of Nunez, guerrillas seized an army truck loaded with rifles and ammunition and killed the captain who drove it.
The appointment of an active army officer to the Cabinet of President Isabel Martinez de Perón has divided the Argentine armed forces. The designation last week of Colonel Vicente Damasco to the highly political post of Minister of the Interior will place him at the center of controversies between the various Perónist and non‐Perónist factions. He is the first active officer to join the Perónist Government since it came to power two years ago. The military has sought to remain aloof from party politics and many officers have become increasingly disenchanted with civilian government as the political and economic crisis here has worsened. Colonel Damasco’s appointment remained in effect after the 10 leading army generals divided evenly over the issue last Thursday.
West Berlin justice authorities announced they had canceled an arrest warrant against a former Nazi officer who had been living under an assumed name in Argentina. The warrant against Walter Kutschmann was revoked because a charge of aiding and abetting the World War II murder of Jews in Poland has become void under West Germany’s statute of limitations, a spokesman said.
South Africa dispatched police reinforcements to South-West Africa today in the wake of the murder Saturday of the Ovambo Chief Minister, Chief Filemon Elifas. Additional policemen have also been sent to Oshakati, in northern Ovamboland, to help in investigations into the death. The South African Police Minister, James Kruger, said that although he did not expect trouble, the murder could cause unrest. So far the territory has remained calm. But migrant Ovambo workers in the African township of Katutura, outside Windhoek, were jubilant when they heard the news. A crowd started chanting “Kapuuo will be next,” a reference to Clemens Kapuuo, leader of the Hereros, who came under sharp attack from black nationalists recently when he agreed to lead a delegation to constitutional talks on the future of South‐West Africa next month.
The Commerce Department reported that housing starts in July increased 14 percent over the previous month and showed their first substantial rise of the year. Starts last month were at an annual rate of 1,238,000, well above the recession low of fewer than 1 million in the winter months. Of equal importance, the July figures showed the first sign of revival in the extremely depressed sector of new apartment buildings. Units of multifamily housing started in July were at an annual rate of 228,000, a 51 percent increase over June. Single‐family housing, while relatively depressed, has held up better all through the recession than apartment building. In July, single‐family starts were at a rate of 927,000, up from 879,000 in June and the highest in more than a year.
Mel Patrick Lynch, a city fireman, and Dominic Byrne, a limousine operator, have admitted kidnapping Samuel Bronfman II and threatening that both he and his multimillionaire father, Edgar, would die unless a ransom demand was met, according to a Federal Bureau of Investigation complaint. The complaint said Mr. Lynch admitted preparing the threatening ransom letter last June. But it was learned that a seizure of some member of the Seagram liquor‐empire family had been planned perhaps as long as two years ago—but before Feb. 6, 1974, when Edgar Bronfman began highly publicized proceedings to annul his second marriage. The complaint, charging both men with extortion by use of the mails, was introduced before United States Magistrate Martin D. Jacobs in an arraignment at the Federal Courthouse on Foley Square.
Ronald Reagan and Governor George C. Wallace, potential conservative Presidential candidates from both parties, told the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention today that weak wills in Washington, not United States military forces, lost Vietnam. In separate speeches, both Mr. Reagan and Mr. Wallace told the 40,000 veterans that the United States could survive only as the strongest nation in the world. Mr. Reagan said that the United States “gave up” in Vietnam and abandoned an ally. Mr. Wallace said United States troops fought “with their hands tied behind their backs.” Mr. Wallace said he favored negotiations where possible, but “our foreign policy experts apparently have not learned that you cannot trust the Communists, who are lairs and cheats.” He said the country must have “not parity, not inferiority, not sufficiency — but superiority” in arms. The United States should not have gotten involved in a land war in Asia, Mr. Wallace said, but once involved should have considered “invading the North Vietnamese and carrying the war to them, or bombing Haiphong or Hanoi or whatever was necessary.”
The disappearance of James R. Hoffa on July 30, many investigators believe, may have its roots in the alliances Mr. Hoffa forged with organized crime a quarter century ago in his drive for control of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. Analysis of the records of past investigations, together with background interviews with officials across the Middle West where Mr. Hoffa rose to power, show that he brought flocks of hoodlums into the teamsters, used them to get control and then was stuck with their influence. They are still there. When Mr. Hoffa came out of jail in 1971, thirsting to resume his control of the union but barred by conditions of his parole, one device he used to try to undermine his successor, Frank E. Fitzsimmons, was the allegation that controlling positions in the union were filled with racketeers and convicted criminals. Mr. Hoffa said he would change that if he supplanted Mr. Fitzsimmons, whom a Teamster wit once described as “that fellow Jimmy used to strike matches on.”
Twenty-seven states are withholding a total of $206-million from the Social Security Administration in a dispute over the nation’s new adult welfare program. According to interviews with more than 20 state welfare directors, most of them are withholding payments because they believe the Social Security agency chronically overpays people enrolled in the program, called Supplemental Security Income. Social Security has countered by saying that if the states do not pay the money the agency will attempt to have Federal funds withdrawn from other state programs.
Future grain shipments to the Soviet Union have been boycotted by six maritime unions affiliated with the American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations. The unions also demanded more government protection against rising food prices and more protection for United States shipping interests. The boycott and union demands were announced following a meeting in Washington of George Meany, president of the A.F.L.-C.I.O. and leaders of the six unions.
Large grain sales to the Soviet Union were defended by President Ford in an address to an audience of 20,000 people at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines, one of his stops on a two-day political trip across the Middle West. Mr. Ford said that he expected “further purchases of grain” by Moscow, confronting head-on the sensitive issue of grain sales to Russia, which grain farmers favor but many Midwestern conservatives find politically troublesome.
The “Bicentennial quarter” was put into circulation in the United States. For one year, the image of the American eagle was replaced by one of an American Revolutionary War drummer boy. The image of George Washington remained the same, but the inscription “1776-1976” was put where “1976” would have gone. The coins entered general circulation starting on September 17, 1975.
While proposals for Federal land‐use coordination have been languishing in Congress, at least 17 states have enacted land planning and control bills so far this year. It was probably the most common subject of environmental legislation and one of the busiest years on record for land‐use legislation. Land regulation bills are bogged down in five states, but proposals are pending in 11 others for possible action later this year or in 1976. The most frequent regulatory step this year was to require counties and cities to start comprehensive land‐use planning in varying degrees.
U.S. District Judge W. Arthur Garrity Jr. warned the Boston School Committee in an acrimonious court session he would not allow official delays to upset racial integration of the schools. He said the committee has avoided making decisions to spend money and appoint personnel necessary for schools to open without trouble next month. Racial violence flared in the schools during the last school year when integration through the use of busing was instituted. About 26,000 of Boston’s 84,000 public school children are scheduled to be bused when schools open September 8.
Minors may have abortions without their parents’ consent and wives may have abortions without asking their husbands, a federal appeals court ruled in New Orleans. In ruling two Florida abortion statues unconstitutional, the appeals court said it expected most girls would consult their parents, but that its decision would prevent hostile parents from making a decision not in the best interests of their daughter. The court noted that the second statute dealt with the husband — not necessarily the fetus’ father — and said “the rights of the husband… are of doubtful applicability in this case.”
A judge delayed for at least a week the grand jury appearance in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, of a key witness in the government’s search for fugitive Patricia Hearst until he ruled on motions to kill subpoenas. U.S. District Judge R. Dixon Herman said he probably would rule by the end of this week. Jack and Micki Scott, suspected of renting a northeastern Pennsylvania farmhouse where Miss Hearst and two other fugitives stayed last summer, asked the court to quash the subpoenas, claiming the FBI has conducted a nationwide campaign of wiretapping and harassment in its investigation.
A Cook County Circuit Court judge found insurance executive Thomas D. Flanagan not guilty of battery in connection with a fight in Chicago involving Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Bill Mauldin. Judge James A. Zafiratos said the state had failed to prove its case that Flanagan had attacked Mauldin on May 23 as Mauldin was photographing double-parked cars while visiting a friend near a party at Flanagan’s apartment being given for Mayor Richard J. Daley’s son, John P. Daley. The judge noted testimony from witnesses saying that they had not seen Flanagan strike Mauldin.
Old aluminum wiring in mobile homes poses a “more serious, more dangerous” threat of fire than in houses and apartments, a federal safety official said. Lawrence Kushner, a member of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, said most mobile homes were wired by unlicensed electricians and were built with more flammable materials. The commission has received reports of about 500 fires and other malfunctions attributed to “old technology” aluminum wiring and devices made before 1971, when the industry switched to aluminum alloys. The fires have caused 12 deaths, the commission said.
The Justice Department filed suit today in Federal court here to block the Los Angeles County assessor from taxing the Glomar Explorer, the ship that reportedly recovered a portion of a sunken Russian submarine for the Central Intelligence Agency. For the first time, the Federal Government publicly said that it owned and controlled the 618‐foot vessel now berthed in Long Beach. The suit stated that the Summa Corporation, wholly owned by Howard R. Hughes, had “acted as an agent of the United States for the purpose of secrecy and to provide cover to a classified project.”
Policemen angered by the city of San Francisco’s refusal to meet their pay demands walked off the job today, and a department spokesman said that more than 90 percent of the 1,935-member force was on strike. The police department spokesman said that all major emergencies were being met but acknowledged that the walkout was having a major impact on law enforcement capabilities. Pickets surrounded the city’s police stations. The walkout began despite a vow by Mayor Joseph L. Alioto to dismiss any officer who failed to report for work. But there was no immediate indication of any dismissals. Police Chief Donald Scott said the department would curtail its routine services but would continue to handle emergencies.
Major League Baseball:
The Hall of Fame welcomes five new members. Earl Averill, Bucky Harris, Billy Herman, Judy Johnson, and Ralph Kiner are honored at Induction Ceremonies in Cooperstown. Kiner gained election to the Hall in his final year of eligibility.
Two bases-empty homers by Mike Schmidt and a two-run blast by Dick Allen sparked the Phillies to a 6–3 triumph over the Braves, lifting the winners into a tie for first place in the National League East with idle Pittsburgh. Schmidt’s first homer followed Allen’s two-run belt in the second inning. His second ignited the decisive three-run rally in the seventh to break a 3–3 tie. Singles by Garry Maddox and Tim McCarver, a sacrifice and Dave Cash’s base hit then produced two insurance runs. The Braves scored a run in the first, Earl Williams chasing it home with a single, and added a pair in the third on Vic Correll’s double.
Lefty Rich Folkers, holding the Expos scoreless in all but one frame, pitched the Padres to a 5–2 second-game triumph and a split of a doubleheader. Montreal, rallying for three runs in the eighth inning of the opener, won 4–1. Errors by Padre infielders Hector Torres and Fred Kendall with two out opened the door. A walk and pinch-single by Jose Morales followed to break a 1–1 tie, a second run crossing the plate when Kendall was jarred and lost the ball. Jim Lyttle then singled home the third run. The Padres built a 4–0 lead in the second game, getting a pair in the first inning on RBI singles by Dick Sharon and Bobby Tolan. Ted Kubiak singled home two more runs in the fifth. Expos’ runs came in the sixth on a single by Morales and double by Bob Bailey, who went to third on Sharon’s outfield boot and scored as Pete Mackanin hit into a double play. Tolan drove home the final San Diego marker with a seventh-inning single.
The streaking Reds, with Don Gullett making his first start since June 16, edged the Cardinals, 3–2, to run their winning skein to nine games. Gullett, sidelined because of a broken thumb, went five innings, allowed only three hits and drove in the winners’ first run with a second-inning single. Cincinnati expanded the lead to 2–0 in fifth on Joe Morgan’s single, a stolen base and double by Tony Perez. The Reds made it 3–0 in the eighth on Pete Rose’s RBI single after Cesar Geronimo was hit by a pitch and advanced on an infield out. Ron Fairly doubled home the Cards’ first run in the eighth, but the losers left the bases loaded. They did the same in the ninth — after closing the gap to one run on an infield hit by Ted Simmons, error by shortstop Darrel Chaney and single by Ken Reitz.
Capitalizing on the wildness of loser Randy Tate and three New York errors, the Astros made two hits go a long way as they defeated the Mets, 4–0, behind the six-hit hurling of J.R. Richard. Tate walked the first three Houston batters, and the Astros scored a run as Cliff Johnson grounded out. In the fourth, Joe Torre dropped a throw at first base, putting Enos Cabell aboard. Jerry DaVanon followed with a double, Richard singled and the Astros had a 3–0 lead. Richard reached first on Mike Phillips’ error in the seventh, moved to third when Met reliever Bob Apodaca threw Wilbur Howard’s sacrifice bunt attempt into center field, and scored on Greg Gross’ sacrifice fly.
Burt Hooton, backed by fifth-inning homers off the bats of Ron Cey and Steve Yeager, claimed his fifth straight victory as the Dodgers defeated the Cubs, 3–1. The Cubs tallied their only run in the first when Bill Madlock singled home Don Kessinger. Cey homered with Willie Crawford, who had singled, aboard in the fifth and Yeager duplicated two pitches later. Mike Marshall, relieving Hooton in the eighth, worked out of jams in that frame and the ninth to earn his 12th save.
Six-hit hurling by Dave Goltz, plus the productive bats of Dan Ford and Johnny Briggs, lifted the Twins to a 6–1 victory over Baltimore, dropping the Orioles seven games behind idle Boston in the A. L. East race. Ford singled home two runs in the third to snap a 1–1 tie. Briggs accounted for the winners’ final two markers in the fourth with a bases-loaded single. The only run off Goltz came in the third on a single by Tommy Davis, a hit batsman and base hit by Don Baylor.
Spotting the Rangers a 3–1 lead after two innings in the opener, the Indians rallied behind Boog Powell’s two-run homer and the tight relief work of Rick Waits to win, 4–3, then completed the sweep, 4–2, with the help of round-trippers by Rico Carty and John Lowenstein. Toby Harrah gave Texas a quick lead with a two-run homer in the first inning of the opener. In the sixth, Powell tied the score, homering on the heels of a single by George Hendrick. Loser Steve Hargan walked Carty and Frank Duffy’s two-out single off reliever Clyde Wright plated the winning run. A throwing error by first baseman Jim Spencer gave Cleveland a 1–0 lead in the first inning of the nightcap. Carty tagged loser Fergie Jenkins for a homer after Powell had walked. Lowenstein connected with the bases empty in the fifth, the 32nd gopher ball served up by Jenkins this season. A walk, triple by Bill Fahey and single by Dave Moates accounted for all of the Rangers’ scoring in the fifth.
Leroy Stanton’s one-out, three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth propelled the Angels to a 5–4 victory over the Brewers. Trailing, 4–2, the Angels chased starter Tom Hausman when Adrian Garrett collected a single, his third hit of the game, to open the deciding frame. Reliever Tom Murphy, seeking his 17th save, gave up a single to Bruce Bochte ahead of Stanton’s homer over the left field wall. Milwaukee had knocked out starter Bill Singer with a three-run seventh, Charlie Moore plating two runs with a double and Bobby Mitchell one with a single. Garrett hit a solo homer for the Angels in seventh, but the Brewers matched it in the eighth when Bob Sheldon tripled and rode home on Darrell Porter’s sacrifice fly.
The Tigers scored their third successive victory after a 19-game losing streak, defeating the A’s, 5–3, with help of a three-run homer by Bill Freehan. The Tiger catcher connected in the third after singles by Gary Sutherland and Dan Meyer to give Joe Coleman his first victory in nearly a month. Gene Tenace’s solo homer gave Oakland its first run in the sixth. The Tigers grabbed a 1–0 lead in the second against loser Vida Blue on a walk and singles by Aurelio Rodriguez and Ben Oglivie. Their final run came in the ninth on singles by Oglivie and Ron LeFlore, combined with an error by A’s shortstop Bert Campaneris. Other A’s tallies came on RBI hits by Tenace on an eighth-inning single and Reggie Jackson’s ninth-inning double.
