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.

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

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.

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.
After he was discharged from the
hospital last week, she returned
to Monaco.
The princess and Prince Rain

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

Adlai Stevenson "It is diffi
