Miss Keeler
claims Astor
paid rent
LONDON (UPI) Christine
Keeler testified in court today
that Lord Astor had paid the
rent on the apartment she shared
with playgirl Marilyn (Mandy)
Rice-Davies.
Christine, whose affair with
War Minister John Profumo near
ly toppled the British govern
ment, resumed her tale of sex
and sin that ranged from high so
ciety to the underworld when she
appeared as the first witness in
the trial of Dr. Stephen Ward,
playboy osteopath and artist.
Ward pleaded innocent to a va
riety of vice charges that includ
ed the accusation he lived off the
earnings of Christine and Mandy.
Lord Astor's name came into
the trial as Christine was being
questioned by prosecutor Mervyn
Griffith-Jones.
Asked About Rent
After she said she had moved
into a flat with Mandy, the pros
ecutor asked:
"Who paid the ren of the flat?
Did you pay any of the rent
yourself?"
"Yes, I and Miss Davies paid
some of it." Christine's voice was
nearly a whisper, and the judge
interrupted:
"Who paid the rent Miss Keel
er?" "Lord Astor, she replied.
It was the first time Christine
had testified directly that the
apartment rent was paid by Lord
Astor, although she had said at
Ward's pre-trial hearing that the
osteopath had told her the rent
once was paid with a check from
the wealthy head of one of Brit
ain's most influential families.
.At the pre-trial hearing Mandy
testified she had been intimate
with Astor, who later denied it
Met At Astor's Estate
It was at the famed Cliveden
estate of Lord Astor that Chris
tine met Profumo in the start of
an affair that led to the war min
ister's resignation and an outcry
that brought the Conservative
government of Prime Minister
Harold Macmillan close to col
lapse. Security questions were raised
Because of - the disclosure that
Christine had been sharing her
favors at the same time with
Profumo and Soviet naval at
tache, Capt. Eugene Ivanov,
The Russian's name came into
the trial today when the prosecu
tor asked Christine:
"Did you have intercourse with
Ivanov?"
"On one occasion, yes."
First Witness
Appearing as the first witness
after the prosecution opened its
case against Ward, Christine tes
tified that in addition to sharing
an apartment with Mandy she
also shared her lover, the mys
terious Peter Rachman, a slum
property owner and accused
racketeer whose activities have
created still another crisis for the
British government.

Demos hand
Rocky, GOP
chiefs setback
M1AMI BEACH (UPI) - Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller and other
Republicans pushing for a vote
on the civil rights issue were
dealt a setback today by the Na
tional Governors Conference which
abolished its resolution committee.
The Democratic-led move had
the effect of avoiding on-the-rec
ord voting on the politically-in
tense issue.
The showdown vote was 33-16 in
favor of an amendment offered by
Democratic Gov. Grant Sawyer
of Nevada. The result was reached
on an almost party line basis.
But Gov, Mark Hatfield, Oregon
Republican, who had offered an
alternative to force voting on
civil rights with limited debate
permissible, warned that the gov
ernors still could get into contro
versy in voting on committee re
ports.
Forecasts Fight
Hatfield forecast a fight over a
committee report on public wel
fare, in which he and Gov. George
Romney of Michigan plan to file
minority views.
Rockefeller and other Republi
cans fought to keep the door open
for a vote on the issue but Saw
yer came up witn tne plan lo
abolish the resolutions committee
and thus head off another fiasco
such . as that last year when
Southern governors staged a fili
buster on the conference.
Rockefeller and Hatfield wanted
a rule to permit adoption of resolu
tions on civil rights and other is
sues with a proposal containing
an anti-filibuster provision.
Sawyer proposed that the entire
resolutions process be abolished
to avoid another Southern Demo
cratic filibuster.
Both proposals were offered as
a substitute for an executive com
mittee proposals to abandon the
present two-thirds rule lor resolu
tions and to return to the rule in
force before 1956 to require
a unanimous vote.
Rule Explained
The unanimity rule would per
mit a single governor to veto any
resolution.
The showdown came this morn
ing at the 55th annual confer
ence s lirst business session, in
any event, debate on civil rights
was virtually assured. Even witn
removal of the resolutions proc
ess, plans were made for a civil
rights panel discussion Tuesday.
The civil rights Issue was em
broiled in presidential politics,
with the names of Rockefeller
and Sen. Barry Goldwater of Ari
lona, potential GOP rivals, dom
inating talk at the conference.
Rockefeller, demanding mac
governors show their responsibil
ity bv Koine on record on issues,
said in an opening statement
that the real threat to the gover
nors' conference "lies in reducing
these meetings to impotence and
unimportance.

Two of the men, Dr. Eberhard

Hood River Memorial Hospital.
Attendants said they apparently
escaped with some fractures and
many cuts and bruises.
The third climber, Portland at

Mountain rescue units worked
throughout the night to carry the
two doctors down from tha 10,

The rescue teams reached them .
about 9 p.m. Sunday night, but
it took nearly eight hours to get
them to a hospital. Shoemaker
