ing cheulaled in sucii 'volume
that the post office says ' com
plains about hale mail have
literally quadrupled in the last
few weeks.
II is for these reasons then,
buttressed by our on the spot' ob
servations, that I consider es
sential 'the enactment of new
laws. We should give federal
agencies concurrent jurisdiction
with local la. v enforcement agen
cies in hate bombing cases where
interstate conspiracy or action is
indicated so that the FBI may
move in immediately with au
thority to seek to apprehend ter
rorists, much' as they do now in
kidnap cases under the Lindbergh
law, with full local cooperation if
that is available.
We must also broaden the scope
of existing statutes to ban from
the mail that literature which in
cites lo violence while guarding
against any infringement of our
traditional freedom of speech and
press. So far, at least 10 of my
Republican colleagues in the Sen
ate have indicated to me that
they would join in eo-sponsoring
anti-bcinbiug ' and anti-hate mail
legislation early in ,tlie next con
g.'rssional session.
My . trip also convinced me
that Congress must restore the
original part three struck from
the Civil Highls Act of 1957 in
the Senate so that the U.S. attor
ney general may go into court to
seek to secure the full range of
civil rights guaranteed under
the Constitution to every citizen
kgitimately complaining of being
deprived of them. In addition,
federal fluids should be made
available lo any school district
cut off from state financial sup
poit because they attempt to com
ply with the Supreme Court's
order on desegregation of the
public schools in 1!)34.
These outrages against schools,
homes, houses of worship, places
of business and a community cen
ter have so aroused the con
science of every good American
that I believe there is 'a growing
public support throughout the na-
tio:r" for a law which would stamp
these acts of terror federal crimes
where they are the result of in
terstate activity.
Iteviewing our o b s e r v a lions
during the fact finding trip that
Stnatoi-cleel Ken Keating of New
York and I just took to three
Southern cities where bombs have
exploded, I believe this latest out
rage could well fit the pattern of
bombings which law enforcement
officers label the work of a rela
tively small group of fanatics
growing out of the tension con
nected with segregation In the
South s public schools.
Even if (his latest bombing is
not directly connected as appar
ently that in Peoria, 111.', was not,
the people Who commit these
crimes are still united in the de
lusion that their viicous acts may
be condoned by large segments
of the public, if not by iocal of
ficials themselves.
Some In Medical Profession

Fight For Girl,
To Last Steak
TERAMO, Italy (UPI) Two
youngsters ir love with the
same girl fought it out to the
last steak.
Nicola di Battista and Lucio
Caserta both loved a pretty
school teacher in this Abruzzi
mountain lawn.
To decide who would marry
her they agreed to a steak-duel.
Whoever ate the most steaks
would win her.
As an appetizer each ate his
way through three - plates of
spaghetti, a roasted chicken, 20
sausages, ten hard-boiled eggs
and plate of cakes.
Then they tackled their steak. -
Di Battista was declared the
winrer threc'hours later, after'
gulping down the last mouthful
of his 16th steak. - Caserta gave
up after the 15th.
But iast reports were that the
schoolteacher refused to honor
the bet.
She apparently was scared at
the idea of having to cook for
such a voracious husband.

gt'.s addicted, lie said
Bur "ego is a powerful thing,"
he continued, . ''and members of
the medical profession exhibit
one reason for addiction ' that
should' never: exist' among' intel
ligent people a personal scorn
for narcotics and a desire to
prove to themselves or others
that they can personally utilize
them without detriment.
While it is true, statisically,
that moiit addicjs are "slum
bred" and have criminal records,
addicts can come from any social
class, he said, and "once addic
tion begins, the doctor begins to
reason as any other addict does
in time of stress. He loses his
sense of responsibility. He be
comes withdrawn and thinks in
logic-tight compartments. Physi
cally, morally and spiritually he
moves into the gutter, elbowing
his way into a society of felons."
No matter the background of
addicts, they all "fear pain,
whether physical or psychologic.
Heredity, environment or both
have given them an insecure ego
which frequently leaves them shy
and diffident."- All may be weil
with them until they discover
that narcotics can give them "a
synthetic feeling of security."
The insecure among physicians,
nurses, and druggists have great
er opportunity to make ihis dis
covery, since they work profes
sionally with narcotics. Add lo
this the constant tension involved
in the practice of medicine with
its ltng hours, unintelligently
planned vacations, use of alcohol
or sedatives with their inevitable
side reactions and you sec how
addiction ican happen to people
who of all people should know

Danova, a ruggedly hand
some Italian import, is making
his American debut in ABC-TV's
"The Rifleman."
It's quite a comedown from his
original intent to star in the most
expensive movie in history
Two years ago Cesare signed
with MG.M to play the title role
in "Ben Hur," a 15-million-dollar
super-colossal. It promised to be
the acting plum of the .modern
era of film epics. '
Cesare left a flourishing career
in Rome to study English at
Metro's Hollywood studio.
"I didn't speak a word of Eng
lish," he explained in a heavy
paisano accent, "and I didn't
want to read lines without know
ing what I was saying.
"The picture was supposed to
begin in March of 1957. But it
was delayed. At the last moment
I learned director William Wyler
didn't want an actor with ah ac
cent for' the role. It came as
quite a surprise."
MGM decided to maintain Ces
are on the payroll anyhow. For
the past two years he lias been
paid handsomely for doing abso
lutely nothing at the studio.
Meanwhile, back in Rome,
Charleton Heston is swashbuc
kling all over the place as king
of chariot drivers. He has no ac
cent. Had he won the role, chances
are Cesare would have exploded
to stardom in his first Hollywood
film. Though he's made some 20
European movies, the curly
haired newcomer is 'virtually un
known in this country.
"In a way I'm havpil did not
play Ben Hur," he says, "but J
would prefer not to give my rea
sons. ' '' '

tivity is almost driving me out
of my mind. I never go to the
studio anymore because there is
nothing there for me to do.
"I fill my time reading, writ

designing furniture. Still, it is
disturbing to wake up every
morning realizing there is no job
or work to be done."
Cesare has attempted two other
projecLs since arriving here both
with MGM's blessings. He ap
