Soviet Challenge Deepens Rift Between China and USSR
AP analyzes how Moscow may widen the split with Beijing as the Soviet Communist party gathers in Moscow for its 23rd congress. A West German letter and Die Welt text spur warnings that China seeks to provoke U.S.-Soviet clash by backing Viet Nam. The note accuses China of prolonging war and aims to portray Moscow as an ally of the United States in containing China. The letter cites Soviet arms support to North Viet Nam and Chinese interference with shipments, painting a picture of growing Sino Soviet tensions and a possible China Russia clash.

Concord To Be Upset Come April 1 But There's No Tomfoolery Involved
Concord prepares to adopt a citywide street name and number overhaul on April 1. North south streets become streets, east west become avenues, and other roads become dead end streets. The plan, approved by city officials and the Planning Board, includes new grid numbering and luminescent address markers for 68 of over 200 streets, extending one mile beyond the city limits. Delivery, emergency, and utility crews support the change, while some residents resist. Post cards will inform residents of exact changes.
