o School Bill's Chance Improved by House WASHINGTON (Jt The House Rules Committee took a big stcr luesday in the direction of get ting to President Eisenhower a school construction bill he might sign. It agreed to hear a House Edu cation Committee request that conferees representing the Sen ate and the House be allowed to try to work out a compromise measure. Without Rules Commit tee clearance, conflicting bills passed by the two branches could not be reconciled before Congress adjourns. The committee's decision ap parently meant that leaders of both political parties have deter mined that Congress should not adjourn without passing some kind of a school bill. Informal agreement already has been reached on major terms of a possible compromise, sponsors of the House bill have reported But until the Rules Committee acts, no formal compromise can be drafted and referred to the two houses. Chairman Howard W. Smith (D-Va) has set no date 'or the Rules Committee hearing but was HST Says Nomination 'Still Open' NEW YORK (UPI) Former President Harry S. Truman said Tuesday the Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles next month "is still open." Truman said no one presiden tial candidate has the nomination sewn up and he saw no sign of a bandwagon in the making for Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass). Talking to reporters during his morning walk, Truman declined to discuss current Democratic platform hearings being held in New York. "I'll do my platform work at the convention," he said. Truman, who is backing Sen. Stuart W. Symington (D-Mo) for the Democratic presidential nom ination, expressed surprise when told that Symington would speak at a luncheon meeting in New York Tuesday. When asked if he would attend the luncheon Tru man said, "I wasn't invited." The former president said he had read Vice President Richard M. Nixon's farm program "but 1 didn't see anything about firing (Agriculture Secretary) Ezra Benson." advised Chairman Graham A Barden (D-NC) of the Education Committee that Barden may have a hearing at his convenience. The school bills have been sty mied on the desk of House Speak er bam nayburn (D-Tex) since June 9. Rep. James C. Davis (D Ga) objected then when unani mous consent was asked to agree to a Senate request for a con ference. There are sharp differences be tween the Senate and the House versions. SENATE FORMULA The House bill contains an an ti-segregation provision which the Senate refused to accept. But the Senate measure is more costly and would permit use of some federal funds to bolster teachers' salaries, a provision rejected by the House. The House bill would provide $1,300,000,000 to be spent over a four-year period exclusively for school construction and allocated on the basis of each state's school-age population. The Senate bill calls for Sl,- 800,000,000 to be spent during a tvo-year period and to be dis bursed on a formula based on each state's needs, with the state deciding whether to spend it for construction or for teachers' sal aries or both. The compromise most often discussed informally would drop the anti-segregation provision and the salary clause and retain tht Senate distribution formula. ORIGINAL PROPOSAL That kind of a compromise re portedly would win President Ei senhower's approval, although it is not entirely to his liking. Vice President Richard M. Nixon, the likely GOP presidential nominee, is understood to be pushing for favorable action in advance of the election campaign. The President's original pro posal as advocated by his con gressional leaders would limit federal aid to paying one-half the cost of stale school bond issues and would allocate funds on the basis of need. House Republican Leader Charles A. Halleck of Indiana said the President would sign "a reasonable bill." He added that in his opinion "we will have a school bill before we adjourn." State Appeals Water Limit WASHINGTON Wl Alabama Monday asked the Supreme Court to reconsider its May 31 decision limiting to 3 miles the state's rights to submerged lands in tne Gulf of Mexico. "The court should correct its own mistakes and not wait for Congress to do it," said a petition submitted by State Atty. Gen. MacDonald Gallion. "The petition for rehearing should be granted and three leagues (10 statute miles) from coast shoreline de creed to Alabama." The May 31 decision gave Texas and Florida rights to oil and other undersea resources miles from their Gulf shores. But the court said borders of the other Gulf states Louisiana Mississippi and Alabama extend only 3'A miles. The effect was to rule that the federal government owns oil re sources worth hundreds of mil lions of dollars in submerged lands more than 3 miles off the coasts of these states.

Dies in Philadelphia Nixon Says Soviet Economy Still Primitive By ASSOCIATED PRESS Vice President Richard M. Nix on Tuesday struck out at admin istration critics who say the So viet I'nicn is making greater eco nomic strides than the I'nited States and that the government should do something about it He said there is no chance that the Soviet economy will surpass this country's during this century despite Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's boasts that it will be done in the next seven to 10 years. JAYCEE CONVENTION Nixon's speech, billed as a ma jor discussion of the nation's economy, was presented to the 40th annual convention of the national Junior Chamber of Com merce in St. Louis, Mo It was one of a scries by the Republican presidential aspirant on national issues. "The critics argue that if we would just adopt their pet eco- Princess Grace Flies to U.S. To Attend Rites for Father PHILADELPHIA Wl Thou sands of persons Tuesday joined government and civic leaders in mourning the death of John B. Kelly Sr., father of Princess Grace of Monaco and a self-made man who achieved success and promi nence in many ventures. The 70-y e a r-old businessman, noted civic leader and former Olympic champion oarsman died Monday in his home of intestinal cancer. He received the last rites of the Roman Catholic Church. His wife, two other daughters and his only son, John B. Jr., were at his bedside. Princess Grace, the former Monaco Mourns MONTE CARLO Wl The principality of Monaco went in to official mourning Tuesday for Princess Grace's father, John B. Kelly, who died in Philadelphia Monday. Flags in to Riviera principal ity were draped in black crepe and Radio Monte Carlo restrict ed its programs to classical music and news. Grace Kelly who won fame in Hollywood as a movie actress, had flown here from Monaco to be with her father when he un derwent abdominal surgery for tht second time within a year.

Woman Writer Dies In Nursing Home PORTLAND I Sheba Har greaves, who wrote novels about the West, died in a nursing home here Sunday. She was 73. In addition to working as a reporter and advertising writer, she found time to turn out seven books, among them "Heroine of the Prairies" and "Ward of the Redskins " Survivors include the widower. Fred, and two ions. nomic philosophy we too would grow like the Soviets," Nixon said. "They invited us to join them in playing what is rapidly becoming the most fasluonabli political parlor game of out time a game we might well call 'growlhmanship'." Nixon said it is vnfair to com pare the Soviet and U.S systems because the Soviet Union is re building after th war and its economy is still primitive. He hit at those who say this nation is more interested in fancy automo biles than in solid economic growth. 'The epithet most commonly flung out by the growthmanship school is 'tail fins'," he said. "Without either defending or quarreling with my neighbor's taste, I urge these antiproduction economists to be more explicit. What sort of Soviet are they proposing? "Do they want a federal agency empowered to regulate the design of automobiles? Or arc they pro posing tax rates which make the manufacture of new cars academic?" Nixon advocated government help to private industry whenever necessary, but otherwise stuck to generalities in his discussion of economy. The speech followed an address Monday night at Minot, N.D. on farm problems. That talk was significant both for what he said and what he did not say. He called on the free world to turn its food surpluses over to the United Nations to feed the one billion persons who go to bed hungry each night. But he didn I give his stand on price supports, a controversial subject in the farmlands. ROCKY PLANS TOUR Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York, Nixon's only rival for the Republican presidential nom ination, said Monday he would campaign nationally for the party's candidates in the fall. Rockefeller's statement drew an official cheer from GOP Na tional Chairman Thruston B. Mor ton. But some Republicans viewed a national tour with misgivings. They were afraid the governor might stray too far from the cru cial New York electorate. They feel Nixon, the likely nominee, would need the state's 45 elec toral votes to win the election, Nixon's farm address Monday night came before a Republican rally of 5,000. He said it wouldn't be proper for him to comment on price supports since the admini stration bill still is before Con gress. Nixon was in North Dakota to support the candidacy of Gov. John E. Davis, running for the Senate in a special June 28 elec tion. His opponent is Rep. Quen tin Burdirk. Although Nixon strongly urged the election of Davis, he dis agreed with the governor on one major issue. Nixon said he is in favor of the soil bank program. Davis is against it. In the Democratic race. Mayor Robert Wagner of New York an nounced his support of Sen. John K. Kennedy of Massachusetts for the presidential nomination. In St. Paul, Minn., a brief ap praisal of the civil rights records of candidates came from Roy Wil kins, executive secretary of the National Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People: Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson of Tex asHis Southern background is a big handicap to his chances. Kennedy A good voting rec ord on civil rights. Sen. Stuart Symington of Mis souriAn excellent record. Adlai Stevenson "It is diffi cult for colored people to buy a public figure who believes in moderation as the South has demonstrated moderation to be." Nixon A good record.
