Mikoyan said. Friday, after signing a new five-year trade treaty with France, Soviet Foreign Trade Minister Nikolai Patolichev said “the people of the Soviet Union and its government want very good relations with the people and government of France.” Despite these friendly overtures from Moscow, foreign diplomats considered it unlikely that a “Paris-Moscow axis”' 1 is in the making. They noted that, aside from De Gaulle’s polite reply to Mikoyan, the apparent “wooing” has been entirely one-sided.

John-on proclaimed to 26,000 screaming partisans at the Chicago Stadium: We will win this election.” At Chicago and earlier at Rockford, 111., Johnson called on “good Republicans” to help him win and to take over their party afterwards from its current leadership by Sen. Barry M. Goldwater. “The plain fact is that this election won’t have settled all the things that it should have settled,” Johnson declared. “This country will decide not to go back, but there will be differences left about how to go , forward. . . “But we will know that the voters of this country have not written a blank cijeck; that there are differences which remain, and those differences most be honored, and they will be honored.” Nothing Has Changed In a speech prepared for a rally today at the Old State House in Dover, Del., Johnson said he finds it “hard to hate any man or any thing — and this campaign hasn’t changed that.” “But we all have our private catalog of grudges,” he said.

Barry PHOENIX, Ariz. (UPD—Republican presidential nominee Barry Goldwater sought votes here today from his home town friends and neighbors before making a final cross-country bid for support in the once Democratic South. —> He planned a speech at a morning rally here. The senator stopped for an airport rally in Tucson Friday and today’s home town appearance was his second in Arizona in as many days. The state has not been viewed as a shoo-in for the GOP favorite son. His two campaign appearances were designed to put the state in the Goldwater column in Tuesday's election and give a hand to two GOP associates—Gov. Paul Fannin, who is running for Goldwater’s Senate seat, and Richard KleindieuM. a iowntr Goldwater campaign aide, trying to succeed Fannin as governor. Heads For Texas From his own - home state Goldwater planned to head for President Johnson’s. He was scheduled to address a rally in San Antonio, Tex., in early afternoon. The visit to Texas was his second in less than a week. Tonight he was to head for Columbia, S. C., and a nightrally in Columbia Township Auditorium. There, former Gov. James F.

Major inroads in the once solidly Democratic South are a major goal of Goldwater’s campaign strategy, although he has said he does not expect to do as well as some of his supporters have predicted in southern s'ates. South Carolina has been a key state in his .southern strategy since Sen. Strom Thurmond, S. C., elected as a Democrat, bolted his party to elimb aboard the Goldwater bandwagon. Hits Viet Nam Goldwater flew here Friday night from 'Los Angeles where he addressed a gala fund raising dinner in the Sports Arena. He charged Friday that U.S. troops in South Viet Nam are being, deprived of, . adequate modern military equipment. He accused President Johnson of having more concern for votes than for the safety of U.S, troops there. Goldwater said U.S. involvement in the fighting in South Viet Nam could mark the start of World War 111. The senator’s aides said requests from U.S. forces for radio equipment, new rifles and new grenades have been left unfilled by the Pentagon.
