DUKE LEAVING

LONDON (AP)—The Duke of Norfolk said Sunday he is mov- ing out of his huge, story-book castle into something smaller.

Something smaller will have 12 bedrooms.

The duke said he decided on the move to save some of the heavy costs of living im the castle.

With the duchess and their four daughters, he will. move next fall into a house being built on the grounds of his his- toric Arundel Castle.

He described his future home as “‘a small house in the park.” ~ The 5l-year-old duke is one of Britain’s most’ heavily taxed citizens, paying more than per cent of his income in taxes.

There are 70 workers on the castle estate and 10 servants in the castle.

In 1957, the duke proposed -to Parliament a complicated plan

to give Arundel castle away, contending it was costing him too much.

xressive attitudes ‘reminiscent of cid imperialist powers against whom both India and China strug- sied in the past.”

Prime Minister Nehru’s govern- ment made public today a stiff oiplomatic note sent to Peking Wednesday formally accusing the Chinese . Communists of aggres- sion.

“Where aggression takes place the peoplf of India inevitably will have to resist by al means avail- able to them,” ‘ne note said.

The note put on the record what Nehru has repeatedly declared in denouncing Communist border raids.

It expressed regret that, at a time when the United States and the Soviet Union are “striving to their utmost ability to put an end to the cold war, there should be this relapse into violence and ag- gression on the frontiers of In- Gia.”

India said the Chinese atiack vn an Indian police patrol in the Ladakh district of Kashmir Oct. 21 was a clear case of aggres- sion. Nine policemen. were killed. Peking charged the fighting broke

out when the Indians crossed inté} Chinese territory.

“Of ‘Aggressive Tendencies’

nese Communists cannot agree even among themselves where tte border runs although some of 'neir maps claim about 40 00§ square mile< of Ind‘a.

At no time up till now,” me tote said, “has any precise state ment been made by. the Chinese government as to where, accord-

ing to them, the frontier is. Evea ~

their own maps give completely different and varying frontiers.”

New Delhi said ‘India will con- tinue its endeavor to resolve all disputes by peaceful methods” adding:

“(The Indian) government trusts that the Chinese govern- ment will remove their forces f,om Indian territery and resolve minor frontier disputes by peace ful methods.”

Chinese forces stil are en trenched in the Ladakh area, about 40 miics inside the Indiar claimed border.

The note “repudiated emphati- cally the allegation (by Peking) ‘nat Indian forces violated the status quo in several places on ine Sino-Indian frontier or have

roccupied any place inside Chinese

territory.”
