U. S. ASSESSES MIGHT

Russian Army ls Huge Force

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States defence depart- ment says the Soviet Army is capable of fighting a major non- nuclear ground war, starting an atomic war or providing men for a war begun by s. satellite na- tion.

An assessment, of Russian forces was issued Saturday night by the army, whose senior offi- cials have been predicting that limited war is more likely to break out than global nuclear conflict.

The 14-page summary of Rus- sia.n strength said:

“The Soviet Army is capable of: (1) Initiating a major land war to be fought without re- course to the use of mass de- struction weapons, (2) initiating -an all-out nuclear war, and (3) supplying manpower as “volun- teers' and providing material support for operations in areas roughly contiguous to the Soviet Union and vulnerable to Commu- nist exploitation.”

FORCE OF 2% MILLION

The Soviet Army is said "to be composed of 2,500,000 men and 175 divisions. U.S. Army strength now is about 900,000.

“Despite public announcements made during the last three years that over\- all strength of the entire (Russian) armed forces would be reduced by 2. 140,000 men, the Soviet govern- ment has failed to prove that this reduction actually took place,” the assessment said. “On the contrary, there are indications that it has retained a high tI'00P strength and increased the com- bat effectiveness by introducing new and improved weapons.”

In addition to the army._ the Soviet armed forces are said to

have about 1,090,000 men ln fl“? air force and in naval aviation,

RCM.-p spokesman said he had not yet received official reports.

First reports said the seven- foot boat powered by a three- horsepower engine sank after striking a rock. But two wit- nesses said they believed it turned over during an lmex‘ pected squall.

with about 20,000 aircraft in the two air arms. The Russian Navy is estimated at 500 submarines, 25 modern cruisers and 130 de- stroyers.

If Russia attacked the NATO forces of Western Europe, the army e s ti m ate s, it probably would use two or three fronts.

The assessment -theorizes that into such atta.ck would be thrown two to four combined armies of between 15 and 35 divisions; one or two mechanized armies of about 1,000 planes each; artillery and anti-aircraft artillery divi- sions, as well as elements of chemical, construction, engineer, signal and other forces.

sPoriugol’sl President Re - e~le«ctecI

LISBON (CP) -— Premier An- 'tonio..Salazar’s National Union party easily ilouglit otlf its first serious opposition in 30 years and scored a sweeping victory in Por- tugal’s presidential election Sun- day.

Rear Admiral America Tomas, the National Union candidate, was elected by a majority that approached 90 per cent. No vote breakdown was announced im- mediately.

The opposition candidate, Gen. Humberto Delgado, conceded de- feat. But he said he has no in- tention of sending his congratula- tions to “those people.” ‘

“The elections only showed," he told an interviewer, “that, like Hitler and Mussolini, nobody can win in Portugal against Sala- zar.”

Delgado, 52, is Portugal’s di- rector of civil aviation. He had said he would fire Salazar if elected. I

ONLY ONE NAME

Only the name of Tomas was on the printed ballots. Supporters of Delgado had to write in his name.

Interior Minister Joaquim Tri-go de Negreiros said Delgado won a majority in only two or three of Portugal’s 302 electoral dis- tricts. He made this showing in the Oporto area, but was swamp- ed elsewhere.

Delgado charged fraud in the campaign. He said many of his supporters h a (1 been stricken from the register of voters for no good reason and many of his aides had been arrested trying to distribute ballots to voters.

Five RCMP

Officers Drowned

JAC"SON’S "POINT, Ont. (CP) Five 1,..MP men, crowded into a 14-foot outboard motorboat, were drowned late Saturday or early Sunday when the boat capsized on squall-ri-piped Lake Simcoe.

RCMP headquarters in Toronto released the n-aunes of three of the dead: Cpl. Herbert B. Smart, Toronto. formerly stationed at Guysborough, N. S.; Con st. George H. E. Ransom, Melville, S~ask.; and Const. Glen Farrell. Stockton, Man.

The others in the boat were reported to be Sgt. Morris M. Mela-nchuk, Prince George, B.C.. and Const. David Parry, sta- t-ioned at Orlllia with Const. Far- rell. The others were stationed in Toronto. ‘

Cpl. Smarts body was recov- ered early Sunday.

Clhiecf srugpervisory coroner Dr. Srnirle Lawson said Sunday night an inquest will be held at Barrie at a date yet to be set. He said he will speak to Attorney-G-em eral Roberts to determine whether he himself should con- duct it. '

Dr. Lawson said the accident "was caused by “too many men in a small boat.”

RCMIP, provincial police and private boat owners continued dragging where the boat was be- lieved to have been swamped. The accident is believed to have happened sometime be- tween 10:30 p.m., EDT Saturday and early Sunday morning while the boat was travelling from Ja-ckson’s Point to the Georgian Island Indian Reserve, in the southeast corner of Lake Simcoe 40 miles north of Toronto.

Cpl. Smart was a veteran of 15 years in the RCMP. He came from his native Nova Scotia last summer.

Mrs. Smart said her husband left home to go on duty Saturday afternoon. She said she did not worry when he failed to come home Sunday morning because his duties frequently kept him out all night.

Besides his wife, Cpl. Smart is survived by two daughters.

PARIS (-C—P)—Premier Charles de Gaulle turned h-is attention Sunday to straightening out France’s troubles in Tunisia and

Morocco — Algeria’s North Afri- can neighbors.

Moving rapidly after clamping an uneasy lid on Algeria, the new premier summoned his cabinet for a session today on relations with those two independent 11» - tions.

The thorny problem of Corsica, ruled since May 24 by a military governor sent from Algiers, is likely to"be dis-cussed.

The session is likely also to see Finance Minister Antoine Pinay give his views on France’s shaky financial position.

There were rumors — which could not be verified -— that Jacques Soustelle, the political adviser to the Algiers insurgents, would come to the meeting for a cabinet decision on how he could

Curlew°Clampecl On Four Cyprus Towns Early Today

NICOSIA, Cyprus (Reuters) — Curfew was clamped on four Cy- prus towns early today after the second straight day of bloody rioting between Greek and Turk- ish Cypriots.

Before British troops could break up the fighting at least two Greek Cypriots were killed and two severely wounded in a clash at the south Cyprus port of Lar-’ nacra. Three others were reported shot. _

Barbed wire barricades were thrown up to separate the Greek and Turkish quarters of the city.

The government of the British Mediterranean isl-and colony irri- posed a curfew on the town as well as Nicosia, Pa-plios, and Fa- magusta where other outbreaks were reported.

DEMANDS MEETING

(In Athens the Greek govern- ment Sunday night demanded an extraordinary meeting of the NATO council to discuss the anti-Greek riots by Turkish Cyp- riots).

(In Istanbul, tanks and troops dispersed demonstrators march- ing toward the area where the British and Greek consulates are located. About 200,000 persons at- tended an anti-Greek. anti-Brlt- ish demonstration.)

In one of the worst incidents between the two groups, six masked gunmen broke into a Greek Cypriot wedding feast at Zeros, 33 miles west of Nicosia, and shot three persons.

Armed mobs from both sides roamed through the streets as rumors flaw of new outbreaks of violence. Greek churchbells in Fama.g.u;sta peeled a warning to residents of the Greek quarter of‘ a Turkish ‘at-tack.

Heavily-armed‘ British troops stood guard in Nicosia after the island’s worst night of Greek- Turk rioting killed two persons and injured at least 62 others.

A spokesman for the govern- ment of this British colony -said there seemed no doubt the dis- turbances had‘been planned in advance by Turkish Cypriots who yelled “partition or death” as they ripped into Nicosiafs Greek Cypriots with guns, knives, sticks and stones after a bomb blast damaged windows of the Turkish information office.

In Istanbul, the Turkish foreign ministry i s s u e d a statement backing partition of Cyprus into separate sectors for the Turkish minority and the islands domi- nant Greeks, who favor union with Greece. Speakers at an Is- tanbul rally Sunday said 26,000,- 000 Turks were ready to die for Cyprus. Troops dispersed demon- strations marching on the Greek and British consulates.

BLAMES BRITAIN‘

(A pro -‘government Athens newspaper said the note blamed Britain for the deadlock on the island’s future and stressed growing Greek “irritation" over reports of Turkish troops concen- trations opposite Cyprus and. al- leged threats against Tut-key’s Greek minority.)

The Cyprus government said

earlier the situation was under control following Saturday night‘s riots.

Troops sat on Nicosia rooftops, weapons at the ready.

They also guarded a barbed wire barricade separating the city’: Greek and Turkish quar- ters. A curfew was in force in the old city.

In London, political sources said Britain’s new Cyprus plan- to be announced in about a week —was expected to urge a large measure of internal self-govern- ment in which the rival Greek and Turkish communities would

“ co-operate.”

lems in Tunisia and Morocco after winning full cabinet support for his plan for Algeria. The plan calls for complete equality be- tween the Algerians and the Eu- ropeans in Algeria.

RESERVE-D REACTION

The intia-1 reaction in Tunisia and Morocco at best is reserved.

The Tunisians were reported to feel the plan slams the door on avenues of negotiation for a North African federation of Al- geria, Tunisia. and Morocco. That idea has been loosely endorsed by de Gaulle in the past.

There was a sign of returning calm in Algeria—-at least on the surface. Gen. Jacques Massu, the tough paratroop commander who is president of the Algiers com- mittee of public safety, told the population that he would not wel- come any more mass demonstra- «ions.

De Gaulle's plan outlined dis- tinctly restricted du.ties for the insurrectional committees ~ such as the one Massu heads-which sprang up throughout Algeria during the revolt.

ative in Algeria, Gen. Raoul Salan, also moved to get the committee out "of the govern- ment’s hair.

He urged them in a statement to work toward de Gaulle’s pro- gram, and added with a bit of irony:

“With generosity and disinter- est you put yourselves entirely at the serv-ice of the new chief of government. He made you his companions."

Salan issued an order to his troops, saying de Gaulle had to- tal confidence in the army. Salan told them to turn their efforts to- ward putting down the Algerian nationalist rebellion.

As the order went out, scat- tered reports came.in of clashes between rebel bands and French troops. But they were sporadic.

De Gaulle moved swiftly Satur- day in acting on his plans for Al- geria and the French constitu- lion.

Greeks Ask U. N. Meeting

ATHENS (Reuters) —- Greece has asked for an extraordinary meeting of the NATO council to consider anti - Greek riots by Turkish Cypriots, it was an- nounced Sunday night.

The Greek government has in- structed George Pesmatzoglou, Greek ambassador to Turkey, Turkey, who now is in Athens, to cancel his planned return to Ankara today because of Turkish attack on Greeks in Cyprus, the official announcement added.

Demonstrators In Istanbul Are Dispersed

ISTANBUL, Turkey (Reu;ters)/ —'llanks and troops dispersed thousands of demonstrators Sun- day as they marched toward the British and Greek consulates here.

The tanks had been waiting in the streets of Istanbul as the crowds burned an effigy of Arch- bishop Makarios, leader of the movement to unite British-ruled Cyprus with Greece, at a dem- onstration in favor of the parti- tion of Cyprus into separate Greek and Turkish sectors.

The demonstration came a few hours after the foreign ministry said Turkey had reached, a “full and mature decision to‘ realize the partition of Cyprus” as the only solution ensuring Turkish

security.
