Rockefeller Says
Kennedy's Defense
Policy Is Chaotic
NEW YORK (UPI) Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller said this
week that President Kennedy's
European nuclear defense policy
will lead to "chaos" and proposed,
instead, one of his own.
Rockefeller, who many believe
will face Kennedy in 1964 as the
Republican presidential candidate,
urged the United Stutcs to help
Kurope create a nuclear arsenal
and strategy that can be coordi
nated with our own.
lie called for "a North Atlantic
political arrangement within
which nuclear weapons can be
controlled and deployed for the
common good of all free peoples."
Such an arrangement, he said,
could be achieved through crea
tion of a "genuine political part
nership of strong and independent
nations committed to sharing
agreed nuclear responsibilities for
the common defense of the At
lantic area."
."Rockefeller, in a dinner address
to the Bureau of Advertising of
the American Newspaper Publish
cfs Association (ANPA), said the
Kennedy administration "has
talked a great deal about part
nership, (but) it is treating our
friends of the Atlantic alliance as
dependent allies rather than in
dependent partners.
"''The administration in its poli
cies and actions has, in fact, been
extremely ambivalent; in the eco
nomic field, it has talked of equal
partnership, of the importance of
European integration and of com
nlon European action, but in the
nuclear field, it has discouraged
tbo emergence of any European
identity."

man, Miss., for the dismissal of
Professor Corinne T. Carpenter.
Dr. Koch was suspended in July
of 1960 after writing a letter to
the campus paper in which he
condoned pre-marital intercourse
for "those sufficiently mature to
engage in it without social con
sequences and without violating
their own codes of morality and
ethics."
Two weeks after he was sus
pended by President David D.
Henry, Koch was officially dis
missed from the faculty by the
Board of Trustees.
The professors, representing a
membership of 5,000 at about
1,450 institutions, voted the cen
sure at their 49th annual conven
tion here Friday on the ground
that the university showed "grave
deficiencies in academic due proc
ess" and then resorted to the
"drastic" . measure of dismissal.
Dr. David Fcldman, chairman
of the .Committee on Academic
Freedom, submitted the commit
tee's recommendation for censure
which stated Koch was the vic
tim as a "prejudgment" by the
Illinois president, which "inescap
ably handicapped" the biology
professor in stating his case.
In Urbana, III., Dr. David Dodds
Henry, president of the University
of Illinois said today he had no
comment regarding the AAUP's
censure.
Dr. Gara, head of the history
department at Grove City College,
was informed last year that lie
would not be reappointed for
12 63.
The college said it has no ten
ure program, but the association
said that, under the standards it
supports, Gara had tenure status
and was subject to dismissal only
for stated cause and a hearing
offering academic due process.
It said that the administration
of the college, headed by Presi
dent J. Stanley llarkcr, did not
grant Gara such a hearing.
In the case of Dr. Carpenter,
the AAUP said she had served
Alcorn College for 19 years, seven
of which had involved full-time
teaching.
The association said that this
entitled her to tenure in her posi
tion and she could not be dis
missed without being accorded ac
ademic due process.
The University of California's
policy of banning Communist
speakers in campus and permit
ting right-wingers to have their
say is an offense to logic, Berke
ley Chancellor Edward W. Strong
I told the convention rriday.
I It also is a violation of univer
i sity policy the open forum, he
I said.

She Hit Wrong Pedal
Roseburg Citv Police investigat
ed an accident in the 800 block of
SE Jackson Street Friday which
occurred when a woman put her
foot on the gas pedal instead of the
brake and struck a parked car.
They said Natalie Wollenberg
Baum. 84, of Roseburg. told them
she was parked on the west side
of the street, hit the accelerator
instesd of the brake, and went
across the street and hit a parked
car owned by Martha Mulky, 2S12
W. Jay St.
"Other raids have been going
on, and others are planned,"
Rorke said during an interview in
his hotel room. "1 will participate
in more of them."
The plane flew north along the
coast line of Cuba at about 50
feet, he said, until it reached
Pinar Del Rio, the westernmost
province of Cuba.
".We cut in over land, flew to
the refineries, then out over wa
ter," Rorke said.
When the plane -was about 150
feet over the refineries, Rorke
said, they dropped a 100-pound
high explosive bomb and four na
palm bombs.
"I think the 100 pounder went
off, but we couldn't see the oth
ers because we were flying out to
sea," Rorke said during an in
terview in his hotel room.
Havana Radio said none of the
bombs went off.
Call Claims "Foolish"
Rorke called claims that such
a raid would have injured people
"foolish" because no one would
be working in a refinery at night.
After the raid, Rorke said, the
plane again landed him on the
water where he was picked up by
a waiting boat, which brought him
to the U.S. -mainland. He refused
to say where he landed.
Rorke said one of his com
panions was an American student
at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology and another was an
American businessman. He said
the third was a Cuban exile.
There were no markings on the
plane, Rorke said. He refused to
say what place it came from or
who owned it.
Rorke said the raid was made
as an "attempt to cut off the
oil supplies for Migs on the is
land." He said he also hoped to
help guerrillas prove that de
fences on the island are not im
pregnable, and raise the spirits of
Cuban exiles.
Control On Minor
Use Of Liquor
Backed By House
The state House of Representa
tives approved a measure makin?
it illegal for a minor to consume
or possess alcoholic beverages un
less he is at home with his parents
and has their permission.
The measure strengthens provi
sions covering "possession" of li
quor and is an outgrowth of a
Douglas County case where Circuit
Court Judge Charles S. Woodrich
ruled a youth innocent of posses
sion of liquor although he was ap
prehended with a glass in his hand.
The local case was that of Mi
chael Dennis Sutton, 18, of Rose
burg, which has been appealed
from a District Court conviction
of him being a minor in posses
sion of alcoholic beverages.
In the appeal, it was stipulated
that Sutton was a passenger in an
auto on Aug. 29, 1962. Owner and
operator of the car was another.
At the time of arrest there was a
fifth bottle of gin and an open fifth
bottle of whiskey, purchased by the
owner of the car and owned by
him and in his control, in the car.
The owner was admitted to have
poured whiskey in a paper cup
with a mix and handed it to Sutton.
The latter at the time and place
of arrest held the glass in his
hand, a portion of which he had
consumed.
The defendaK's attorney Robert
Stults on appeal argued that under
the law this did not constitute a
crime. The judge ruled in favor of
the defendant upholding this con
tention, as he had not violated the
law under which he was charged.
