Further Action In Plane Attack May Be Asked
Washington reports that the United States may seek action from the United Nations or the World Court over the April 8 surfacing attack on an unarmed American patrol bomber shot down over the Baltic Sea with ten dead. Navy evidence claims Soviet gunfire caused the mid air explosion as the plane rode on a retracted front landing wheel found off Latvia. The U. S. has protested to Moscow twice, with one indemnity demand rejected and the second unanswered due to Pravda denials. High State department officials say a new development could bring a swift decision.
