Politicos Near Campaign End In California SAN FRANCISCO CP) Weary candidates made their final swing for votes Sunday as California s 1954 primary campaign reached its climax. No last-minute political explo sions marked the election drive, and it was just a case of waiting for the verdict of the voters Tues day. Democratic groups, however. hoped to capitalize on Saturday's action by Stephen A. Mitchell, Democratic national chairman, in defending Richard P. Graves, Democratic candidate for govern or. Mitchell accused Gregory Har rison of San Francisco, chairman of the newly-organized "Demo cratic Conference Against Radi cal Party Leadership of mas querading" as a Democrat. The Harrison faction is supporting Re publican Gov. Goodwin J. Knight Mitchell curtly rejected Harri son's suggestion to purge the state Democratic Party of radical ele menU. He said the proposal bore "all the tell-tale marks" of "po litical subversion. ' It was the second time Mitchell stepped into the California cam paign. Previously he refused na tional committee support of Rep. Robert Condon (D-Calif) and James Roosevelt, running for Con gress from the 26th District of Los Angeles. Big Tanker Launched in Hamburg Area HAMBURG, Germany Wl-The wdrld's biggest tanker, the 47,000 ton Al-Malik Saud Al-Awal (the King Saul I) was launched at the Howaldt shipyards here this weekend. The big ship, more than 100 feet longer than the battleship Missouri, can carry as much oil as 5000 railroad tank cars, is as high as a 12-story building and is powered with a turbine engine ofx 17,500 horsepower, giving a cruising speed of 17 knots. The vessel is fitted with radar, fireproof decks, and has air-conditioned two and three-berth cab ins for the crew. Greek-born Argentine multi millionaire Aristotle Socrates Onassis proudly watched as his biggest vessel slipped into the water, bringing his world-girdling tanker fleet to well over 1,300, 000 tons. Onassis wife, Tina; Saudi Ara bia's minister of commerce. Sheikh Ali Reza; West Germany's Vice Chancellor Franz guests were present, while thousands of other Hamburg residents watched the launching from neighborhood harbor quays. Five hundred policemen were called out to control the crowds. Congress President arate executive and legislative branches of government in rela tion to the present Senate com mittee hearings on his row with Pentagon officials. "There is no point beyond which the activities of the executive de partment" in cases of suspected wrong-doing ceases to be the m- erest of Congress," the senator said. No Names Told "Only the method of investiga tion need be kept private. I would not suggest that the FBI make pub lic the technique by which it ob tains information, nor the names of persons who give it. Nor do I in tend to make public the similar files of the senate permanent in vestigations subcommittee." McCarthy said the present hear ings reflect "just the age - old problem of clarifying responsibility between the executive and legisl ative branches of government. "There is nothing new about it. ftfhpr Asiminitrfitinn hav An. 'countered it, other presidents have aced as they saw fit and Congress has acted to make the duties of each branch clear." No Quarrel With Ike McCarhy repeated he had no quarrel with President Eisen hower but that the present hear ings before the committee showed a startling situation" has devel oped in the administration. Publication of the monitored tele phone calls between Army Secre tary Stevens and Sen. Stuart Sym ington (D.-Mo.) "showed that the leftwing Democrat advisors of Democrat administrations still are exerting their influence on this Re publican administration." "Left-Win Press" He meant, he said, Sen. Sym ington, former Air Force sec retary under President Truman; Clark Clifford, former White House counsel, and also elements of the press which he said had been as sociated with the left wing of the Democratic party. "The administration is too sen sitive to the opinions of the East era press," he said, "the left wing writers are those the administra tion people read, and the ones they believe." McCarthy said that although be had considered the hearings a waste of time, he thought that matters of historic import concern ing the Democratic form of gov ernment were being brought force fully to the attention of the people. In this way, be said, they might have a beneficial effect.

'Conformist' Church Opposed Bv Dr. Evans LAFAYETTE, Ind. on Women leaders of the Presbyterian Church were told Sunday "the church must never lose its 'differentism. . .it must stand tall in a society that conforms."

Evans, addressing more than 6,000 delegates and visit ors attending the National Council of Presbyterian Women's Organiza tions, declared "there has always been a moral loneliness to Christ ianity The Christian has been a 'peculiar' person and so has been recognized."
