Queen Elizabeth Launches Liner Q-4: Name Stirs Scottish Resentment By MICHAEL R. CODEL CLYDEBANK, Scotland CP>-- Queen Elizabeth II gave her own name Wednesday to Britain’s new transatlantic liner, and the royal accolade stirred resent ment into the pride of the ship’s Scottish builders. More than 30,000 persons alongside the River Clyde cheered as the queen cut a ribbon that sent a magnum of champagne crashing against the bows of the 58,000-ton liner—designed as the most advanced passenger ship in the world. THEN THE cheers seemed to fade as the sleek successor to Britain’s two elderly Atlantic Queens glided into the water with a rumble from 1,400 tons of drag chains. It was as if most of the spec tators had just grasped the sig nificance of the queen’s words on the launching platform: “I name this ship Queen Elizabeth the II.” The second ? Many Scots, not necessarily nationalists, don’t recognize such a person. They ICG SHOP THE STORE THAT ALWAYS GIVES YOU MORE FOR YOUR MONEY!

According to the nationalists, that makes the present monarch Queen Elizabeth I of Scotland — whatever the English call her. Some felt so strongly about it after the coronation in 1953 that they put bombs in mail boxes carrying the rolal cipher “EK 11.” Now Scottish mail boxes compromise with “ER” — Eliza beth Regina, no number. “The name must mean that the ship is the successor to the old Queen Elizabeth,” said one ship yard man. “That’s the best ex planation we can think of.” GORDON WILSON, secretary of the Scottish National party, a home-rule group not represented in Parliament, said his Glasgow headquarters had been jammed with protest calls. “I think the name will be re sented by a great number in Scotland, and shows little regal'd for the thousands of Scottish craftsmen who worked to create the ship,” he said. The old liner Queen Elizabeth, due to retire in 1968, radioed from its transatlantic route: “WE SALUTE OUR successor and wish her fair sailing in peaceful seas.” She is 82,997 tons. The 81,237-ton Queen Mary sent greetings as she neared New York on her last Atlantic round trip. She is to tie up later at Long Reach, Calif. All three Queens are of the Cunard Line. The new liner, a computerized pleasuredrome costing $84 mil lion, is a financial gamble on the hope of luring business away from transatlantic jet travel. Jet competition hurt both the old Queens, built in the ’30s. N. Vietnamese Haul Supplies Across China lly BOR HORTON AP Military Writer WASHINGTON CP> — North Vietnamese are traveling across Red China to receive Russian war supplies at the Soviet-Chinese border, congressional testimony revealed Wednesday. The disclosure was made by military men testifying before the Senate preparedness investigating subcommittee Aug. 10 during a closed hearing on the Vietnamese air war. The comments of Adm. U. S. Grant Sharp, Pacific commander in chief, and Air Force Maj. Gen. Chesley G. Peterson, assistant chief of staff of Pacific intelli gence, were released Wednesday. Peterson said it is “an accepted intelligence estimate” that the North Vietnamese are taking physical possession of it across China. “They are having problems with the Chinese stealing stuff off the rails,” Peterson said. “The Soviets therefore worked out an agreement that the North Vietna mese themselves would take it over and accompany it all the way.” Peterson -said relations between the Chinese and Russians has been “a little bit had, and may get worse.” In efforts to destroy such supplies coming by rail through China, U. S. air attacks have been stepped up in North Vietnam’s upper regions.
