A rescue worker shouted
when he managed to free the
last of the trapped occupants, a
woman. She was dead.
The Rev. Carter, grim but
dry-eyed and silent, watched as
the body of his 28-year-old
daughter, Mrs. Kathleen As
kew, was covered with a yellow
plastic shroud and placed in an
ambulance.
It was about 12:30 p.m. EST
Sunday when the bus rounded a
curve in the Pennsylvania
Turnpike six miles east of here
and the driver, Joseph W.
Pegano, 26, of Pittsburgh, saw
two automobiles stopped in the
roadway. A Greyhound bus
traveling in the' opposite
direction flashed its lights,
meaning “danger.”
Pegano braked and the bus
skidded on the wet pavement,
struck a medial guardrail, then
crashed through a guardrail
and fell down a deep embank
ment. It turned over as it fell,
landing on its roof.
The dead, in addition to Mrs.
Askew, were Simone Scott, 4;
Michael Howard, 11, and Anna
May Worley, about 35.
Eight of those hospitalized
were reported in critical
condition, two were in “unsatis
factory” condition and the

with the assistance of the

Authority and the City Council
of Barnesville, will be on
Gordon Road in Barnesville
near the planned route of U. S.

Carter, who organized the
trip, visited with every one of
the injured.

Russian aide won’t
interfere with trip
By PHIL NEWSOM
UPI Foreign News Analyst
It was an accident that Soviet
Premier Aleksei N. Kosygin
was in Hanoi on Feb. 7, 1965,
when U.S. carrier-based planes
swept in from the sea to attack
a Viet Cong staging area in
North Vietnam and to launch
the U.S. air war against the
north.
But accident or not, from
that time on Vietnam became
the abrasive that contributed
most to a subsequent chill in
U.S.-Soviet relations.
It prevented President Lyn
don B. Johnson from carrying
out a cherished hope of visiting
Moscow to further his own
campaign of building bridges to
the east.
It led the Soviet government
newspaper Izvestia to declare
that U.S.-Soviet relations were
“frozen” and would remain so
until Washington abandoned its
“armed intervention” in Viet
nam.
President Nixon’s start on a
phased withdrawal from Viet
nam and his declared policy of
negotiation rather than confron
tation opened the way to the
Helsinki-Vienna talks on strate
gic arms limitation (SALT) and
to his planned visit to Moscow
in May—a visit which the
current Communist offensive in
Vietnam could endanger.
As joint chairman with
Britain of the 1954 Geneva
conference on Indochina and as
North Vietnam’s chief supplier
the Soviets have been asked
frequently in the past, either by
the United States itself or by
intermediaries, either to recon
vene the Geneva conference or
to intervene directly with North
Vietnam for peace.
Each one die has rejected or
ignored, the latest within the
last week, from Britain.
As a presidential candidate in
1968, Nixon declared he would
apply diplomatic, economic and
political pressure on the Soviet
Union and suggested this might
be the “key to peace.”
In Washington this week, in a
somewhat milder tone but in a

clear allusion to the Soviet
Union’s military aid to North
Vietnam, he declared the big
powers had a special responsi
bility to discourage others from
mounting attacks against neigh
bors.
U.S. intelligence has estimat
ed that Soviet aid to North
Vietnam jumped by 25 per cent
in 1971, to |IOO million in
military goods and $450 million
in economic aid.
Aid from Peking
Aid from Peking is estimated
at about S2OO million, also a
gain over the year before.
The Soviets are North Viet
nam’s chief suppliers of oil and
expensive weapons, including
SAM missiles, tanks and
artillery. Some of this sophisti
cated equipment is showing up
now for the first time in South
Vietnam.
The Chinese have supplied
small arms, trucks and other
goods divided about half and
half between military and
economic help.
The question of Chinese aid to
North Vietnam did not interfere
with the President’s trip to
Peking. Nor, if he can help it,
will Russian aid interfere with
his trip to Moscow.
