Communist leader called Satur
day for the “creation in free de
mocratic areas of Greece of a free
democratic government.”
Government troops continued a
heavy drive against guerrillas in
the northwest, where the war
ministry said insurgents sought to
set up a Communist state.
The war ministry said loyalist
and artillery units were inflicting
heavy casualties on leftist guerril
las on Mount Grammos, near the
Albanian border. Greek war min
ister George Stratos said Friday
the insurgent objective in that sec
tor was ultimately to set up a
separate state.
Nicholas Zachariades, Commun
ist chieftain facing sentences of
from one to five years for crimin
al libel, said in a signed article in
the Athens Communist newspaper
Rizospastis that the Communists
had come to an open break with
non-sympathetic political parties.

The plane had last been heard
from as it passed over Jackson

Similarity in the Spanish names
of the Puerto Ricans, a number of
whom were young children car
ried in the Arms of parents and
not listed as passengers, and the
inability of the survivors to speak
English, hampered identification
of the dead.
Two children escaped injury.
One was a boy, Jose Rodrigues, 3,
whose mother, Pura Rodriguez, is
not expected to live. She has 12
broken bones. The other child was
Ellen Acevdo, 5.
Besides Jura Rodriguez, the
other passenger on the critical
list is Carmen Rodriguez, who has
a broken back.
Among the dead were the pilot,
Capt. Henry Hein, 36, of Houston,

WASHINGTON, (&)—'The Sen
ate appropriations committee has
turned thumbs down on funds for
a geophysical institute in Alaska,
but has indicated it will favor an
allocation if facilities of the insti
tute do not become the property
of the University of Alaska.
A House-approved institute ap
propriation of $100,000 and con
tract authorization for an addi
tional $875,000 were eliminated by
the committee Friday from the ag
riculture appropriation bill.
But the committee explained
that it believed research in geo
physics in the Arctic region should
be carried out, adding:
“It is recommended that the ap
propriate legislative committee re
consider the provision in the law
which would turn over to the uni
versity such an institution.”
