8 and 9. Chu Bows To Power TOKYO (AP) Marshal Chu Teh belatedly tottered onto Mao Tse-tung's shaky bandwagon Monday night after being humiliated, criticized and then apparently making his peace with Mao. The 81-year-old marshal, a cofounder with Mao of the Chinese Red army, appeared with his former colleagues at a reception in Peking honoring the army's 40th anniversary. It was his first appearance at a major event in eight months. Chu's evident conversion to Mao's side in the power struggle with President Liu Shao-chi gave the 73-year-old party chairman a 7-3 margin in China's top Communist power organ, the Politburo's standing committee.

But the massive absence of distant military chiefs from the Peking reception only four of the 13 area commanders attended cated the army remains divided and uncertain. The most immediate fruit Mao be able to harvest from Chu's return to his fold could be the convening of the National People's Congress to oust Liu from the presidency. CARS Big Or.

A brick heaved through the windshield of a car seven blocks from the White House caused minor injuries to a fireman. There were reports of gunfire, but police later attributed the blasts to firecrackers exploding in garbage cans.

Campbell, and three battalions of the 82nd Airborne Division were being moved from the city to the air base. Gov.

He had been a school teacher in the Crawford and Lawrence County rural schools for 28 years until his retirement though a state of emergency remained in effect.

The Washington outbreak came as violence in Milwaukee and Portland, subsided and charges grew that politics had played a role in the handling of the Detroit riot. In Milwaukee, some 4,000 National Guardsmen appeared to a firm rein on the disturbances that brought two shooting deaths and more than 100 injuries and 260 arrests Sunday and Monday. An alleged sniper was arrested Monday night and a 34-yearlod Negro woman appeared to suffer a heart attack as she fled from fire building. A curfew on the city was lifted temporarily but will be restored tonight. Police in Portland, where the worst racial disturbance in Oregon's history blazed Sunday and Monday, reported the streets quiet.

Negroes were ordered off corners by a loudspeaker truck and they complied within moments. Some 30 arrests were made i in Washington. Most of the violence was, concentrated in a predominantly Negro district. Other incidents hit Providence, R.I. and Erie, where racial disturbances flared two weeks ago.

A series of disturbances Monday night in Providence, R.I., left 12 persons, including three policemen, injured. Four persons 3 were stabbed and two others shot as some 200 Negroes roamed the streets throwing bricks, bottles and other debris at police and civilians. No one was injured seriously. Police made no arrests. Police and firemen were called into Erie's tense Negro East Side neighborhood when bottle-throwers and two suspicious fires were reported.

Benny Wall, a Negro liaison man between antipoverty officials and the city, was arrested and charged with inciting a riot and attempted arson. The talk continued about the causes of the disturbances, and what could be done to' halt them. There also were open charges and countercharges about politics entering the handing of Detroit's riots. "I think the President of the United States played some politics in a period of tragedy and rioting," said Gov. George Romney of Michigan, one of the possible Republican 1968 presidential nominees.

His charge was not answered by Johnson, but Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield slapped back at Romney, saying such statements are "demeaning and utterly useless." Romney accused the White House of delaying the dispatch of federal troops into Detroit after his initial request for in 1941, After 1941, he farmed until ill health forced him to re- tire.
