Recount, Absentee Ballots
Not Expected To Overturn
Kennedy's Victory Margin
WASHINGTON (AP) Repub
licans clung to the hope today that
recounts and absentee ballot tabu
lations might give Vice President
Hichard M. Nixon a popular vote
lead over Sen. John Kennedy.
That was the practical valua
tion put by spokesmen for Nixon
on ' a request by GOP National
Chairman Thruslon B. Morton for
a recheck of the vote in 11 states.
Nixon was not consulted about
Morton s recheck request, an aide
said.
While some Republican leaders
had dreamed of overturning Tues
day's results which gave Kennedy
more than enough electoral votes
for the presidency, Nixon's top
aides made it clear they expect
no such outcome.
At Seattle, Democratic National
Chairman Henry M. Jackson dis
missed Morion's maneuver as "a
fishing expedition on a grand
scale." He said the Republican
complaint "appears to be based
merely on the fact that they have
lost a close election.
WASHINGTON (AP)-With tin
official returns complete from all
but 2,472 of the nation's 166.0U6
voting units, John r. Kennedy
still was leading today with SO. 2
per cent o the popular vote.
The totals were Kennedy 33,627,
229; Vice President Kichard M.
Nixon 33,348,397, a difference of
278.832 votes out o nearly 67
million.
Kennedy had carried 22 states
with 300 electoral votes and was
leading in California with 32
votes, which would give him a
total of 332 electoral votes.
Nixon had carried 25 states
with 1R8 electoral votes and led
in Alaska with 3 votes for a total
of 191.
Mississippi's eight electors and
six of Alabama's 11 are un
pledged to either candidate, and
are not figured- in the electoral
vote totals of the candidates.

Husband No. Three
Finally Separate
NEW YORK (AP) What
caused the breakup between
America's sex symbol, Marilyn
Monroe, and her intellectual play
wright husband.'
A tug of-war between their ca
reers, say friends.
But neigher Marilyn nor her
male of four years, Arthur Miller,
were talking for publication.
"I'm sorry." the blonde star
told newsmen Friday after the
separation was announced. But
I have nothing to say about my
personal life."
' Miller ducked out of sight and
was believed to. be staying with
friends. But he was depicted as
"regretful, sad, realistic and
friendly."
Miss Monroe has been described
variously as a woman of ferocious
ambition, frightened, insecure,
witty, vague, ingenuous and the
beauty who wants lo De intelli
gent. '
"She's not just a star," said
another friend. "She is an insti
tution and must constantly be in
the center of excitement and ac
tivity."
Miller, whose writing requires
that he be alone frequently and
away from the stresses of show
business, once said that living
with Marilyn was like "living in a
uoldfish bowl."
Once one of the most prolific of
Broadway playwrights, he was
last represented in New York by
"A View From the Bridge," pro
duced in 1955. He won a Pulitzer
Prize for his "Death of a bales
man." Since his marriage, he has con
fined most of his writing to the
dims and in furthering Marilyn's
career. One of Marilyn's biogra
phers said Miller had "lo give
up his entire time to attend to
her wants."
One thing is certain,' intimates
say, no third party is involved.
This apparently was in reference
to a rumored romance last month
between the actress and French
actor Yves Montand. The pair met

Business Expects Kennedy
To Soften Radical Plans
Because Of Close Election
NEW YORK (AP) Business
took the presidential election in
stride without displaying any no
ticeable jitters about what
changes the new Democratic ad
ministration might bring.
Financial leaders felt that the
slimness of President elect John
F. Kennedy's victory could result
in a toning down of more radical
maneuvers which had been con
templated. The stock market shook off
whatever apprehension it had
over a Kennedy triumph and
soared on Thursday to the great
est gain it has registered in more
than a year.
This spurt climaxed seven
straight days of advance by the
Associated Press average of 60
stocks. The market declined mod
era,tely Friday as profit taking set
in.
The economic community was
buoyed by the expectation of
more spending under the Kenne
dy administration for d f e n e,
housing and schools.
But there was general agree
ment that many problems are
ahead. Among them are general
business conditions, unemploy
ment and the outflow of gold.
Developments this week helped
to emphasize these factors.
The Federal Reserve Bank of
New York found that "a gentle
sag" continues throughout much
of the economy. Ana the bank
said it may have tome distance
to go.
Jobless Picture Worse
The unemployment picture
turned worse in October with the
number of idle increasing from
3,388.000 to 3.579,000. This in
crease of 191,000 came in a month
when a drop of about 200,000 nor
mally is expected.
The number of emploved
dropped from 67,767,000 to 67,490,
000. Usually an increase of more
than 300,000 occurs in October.
The U.S. gold supply was whit
tled by $218 million in the last
week, reducing the total in re-

continued to deteriorate and pre
dictions were that it may be next

51.4 per cent of capacity from
51.9 last week.
Cutbacks in orders for automo
tive steel for November and De.

offset by new orders from gen
eral users.
Output was estimated at 143,-

October new car sales were the
best for the month in history, to

U. S. Center Sacked
During Algerian Riot
ALGIERS (AP) Army troops
and police were alert in trigger
tense Algeria today lest the Ar
mistice Day rioting turn into an
anti-Dc Gaulle uprising.
Friday's rioting, in which some
100 persons were injured, was
mostly by unorganized youths.
The Front for French Algeria,
the principal representative of
rightist Europeans, disclaimed
any connection with the rioting,
which broke out during ceremon
ies at the monument to war dead.
The students battled police and
troops for hours before finally dis
persing at sundown. The rioters
smashed windows, wrecked buses,
sacked the V. S. Information Cen
ter and pelted security forces
with stones, tin cans and toma
toes despite showers of tear gas.
Though most observers believed
the student riot was not an im

Surgery Patient
Mistaken For Her
Dead Companion
BURLINGAME, Calif. (AP)
learns of specialists who per
formed two emergency operations
are credited with saving the life
of Mary Hawthorne, 26.
Mary, an American Airlines
stewardess who became a princi
pal in a case of mistaken iden
tity, lies in critical condition in
a hospital Here.
A medical spokesman says the
New York girl "is improving
slightly and slowly." He said the
operations, one to remove her
spleen and the other to relieve
pressure on the brain, are saving
her life.
The victim of an automobile ac
cident, near here, Mary's body
had been mistaken for that of her
dead companion Joan Frost, 26,
another American Airlines stew
ardess. The error was discovered
by two of Mary's friends Wednes
day when they looked into a cas
ket in New York containing the
body of Joan.
The mixup occurred when per
sonal belongings became scat
tered after the accident, which
killed two persons and seriously
injured tnree others.
Until Thursday, Joan's father
Thomas Frost of Philadelphia,
had sat in a hospital room, think
ing the injured girl was his
daughter. Mary's mother, Mrs.
John F. Schnell of the Bronx, who
had mourned her daughter as
dead, arrived Friday to keep a
vigil at Mary's bedside.
Diabetic Detection Week
Cited By Medical Society
The Douglas County Medical So
ciety has scheduled an information
campaign next week urging people
of the county to be examined by
their family doctors for detection
of diabetes.
Next week is National Diabetes
Week, so the campaign to discover
diabetes cases in the county will be
conducted in conjunction with it.
In announcing the campaign, Dr.
Harry Van Dermark, secretary of
the society, said "a vast majority
of people who have diabetes don't
know it and don't have any overt
symptoms." He said the only way
to discover the presence of the dis
ease in these people is through a
physical test by doctors.
The test, a simple one, merely
calls for a chemical examination
of the urine. Van Dermark said
the society will urge everyone who
has not had a physical examination
in the past year to have such a
test made by their doctors.

"In the first place, Jehovah's
Witnesses have never had any
missionaries working in the terri
tory formerly called the Belgian
Congo, now the Republic of the
Congo. Over the years we made
efforts to obtain visas for our
missionaries but approval was
never granted.
False Rumors Refuted
"Probably Kitiwats'. . .. re
ferred to the fanatic group in that
part of Africa called Kitawala.
Some missionaries and persons of
other religious groups have many
times circulated rumors designed
to link Jehovah's Witnesses and
the Watch Tower Bible and Tract
Society with the Kitawala and we
have given evidence time and
again to prove that there is no
connection between our work and
the Kitawala.
"There are congregations of Je
hovah's Witnesses in the vicinity
of Leopoldville and they are
people well-known to the authori
ties as the most law-abiding per
sons in the Congo.
"Jehovah's Witnesses do not be
lieve in killing men in any part ot
the world, for that would be con
trary, to the principles of loving
our neighbor f and loving our
brothers which were (aught by
Jesus Christ."
In Brussels, Robert Baudhuin,
leader of Belgian Jehovah's Wit
nesses said the confusion result
ed from the fact that "Watch
Tower" means the same as the
Congolese word "Kitiwat."
The Jehovah's Witnesses, a Bible-teaching
group which believes
many modern phenomena were
prophesied in the Scriptures, was
formed in Pittsburgh, Pa in 1884.
It has some 900,000 active work
ers teaching the Bible around the
world.
