Autopsy planned in Mott death on prison train
MOSCOW AP The Foreign Ministry told the United States that Newcomb Mott will have an autopsy in Moscow Monday after his death on a prison train. Russians say he killed himself by slashing his throat in the train washroom Thursday night. Mott, 27, from Sheffield, Massachusetts, was sentenced in November to 18 months in a labor camp for illegally entering the Soviet Union. He was arrested Sept 4. The U.S. Embassy will be represented at the post mortem, possibly by Capt James W Bizzell, USAF. The ambassador voiced horror at the incident, calling it a humanitarian and political issue.

Demonstrators Denounce U S Bomb in Spain
In Cuevas de Almanzora about 50 villagers gathered Friday night to denounce the United States and its bomb after Monday's crash of a U S nuclear bomber on Spain’s southeast coast. The protest ended peacefully after 36 minutes. Madrid announced allied flights over Spain to Gibraltar would be barred, part of Spain’s harassment campaign against the base. The crash location was not Gibraltar though. Hundreds of U S airmen have been searching a six to eight mile area for secret elements of the B 52. The Air Force said the bomber carried unarmed nuclear armament and did not confirm missing weapon reports. Radioactivity tests on rural police indicated routine health checks.
