WASHINGTON (UPL) — President
Nixon and Soviet leader Leonid I.
Brezhnev, already planning another
summit meeting next year, formally
pledged Friday to avoid military con-
frontations and threats of force that
might trigger nuclear war.

The vows were contained in a policy dec-
laration which also said the leaders of the
two superpowers would “immediately en-
ter into urgent consultations with each oth-
er’ if a nuclear conflict threatened.

Shorily before Nixon and Brezhnev
signed the agreement in the East Room of
the White House, Treasury Secretary
 George P. Shultz and Soviet Trade Min-
ister Nikolai §. Patolichey met across
Pennsylvania Avenue in Blair House to in-
itial another pact intended to strengthen
commerce between the United Stales and
the Soviet Union. About 50 captains of
American industry were present at the sig-
ning.

The two latest accords brought to eight

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 28.—()—
Edward L. Doheny and directors
of the Pan American Petroleum
and Transport Company, today
faced a bill of complaint demand-
ing an accounting of $10,000,000
stockholders allege they lost in
the fraudulent lease of the Elk
Hills Naval Oil reserve,

The complaint, filed in behalf of
Frank H. Kunkel, Cincinnati, and
other shareholders, declares the
loss resulted from the cancella-
tion of the lease by a decision of
the United States supreme court
after the company had spent sev-
eral million dollars in the devel-
opment of the field.

The lease was negotiated for the
government by Albert B. Fall,
then secretary of the interior.

The $100,000 delivered to Fall
by E. L. Doheny, Jr.. in the much
discussed “‘little black satchel’ was
declared in the siut to have been
the rightful property of the stock-
holders and used as a bribe. An
accounting of this exchange also is
asked.
| Kunkel sets forth in the com-
plaint that neither he nor any of
the plaintiff stockholders had any
knowledge of the negotiations and
describes Doheny’s conduct of the
deal as a “fraud not only against
the United States but also against
the Pan American company and its
stockholders.” Doheny is charged
with dominating the affairs of the
company when the lease was sign-
ed.
