Z h 4 fa NIKOLAI BULGANIN ' Western Observers See Bleak Future Mack's Interest in Insurance Firm Said 'Flagrant Violation1 Washington HP) A House investigator said today FCC Commissioner Richard A. Mack's reputed financial in terest in an insurance firm holding the account of the National Airlines TV station in Miami is "unquestionably a flagrant violation" of gov ernment regulations. Mack voted to award the hotly contested Channel 10 to the airline. Rep. Morgan M. Moulder (D.-Mo.J said evidence also showed Mack had violated other rules in his relationship with persons seeking to "in fluence" Mack's vote on the award of television channels by the Federal Communica tions commission. Morse Wants Resignation Sen. Wayne Morse (D.-Ore.) said on the basis of what al ready had been brought out in the explosive investigation of federal regulatory agen cies, that President Eisenhow ed should have called for Mack's resignation "before now." But Moulder and other in vestigators said they wanted to hear Mack in the witness chair before comment on whether he should resign or be fired. Mack is scheduled to testify Thursday, but there is a chance he may be called Wednesday. When Mack was first ac cused two weeks ago of hav ing "pledged" his vote to Coral Gables. Fla., Attorney Thomas A. Whiteside in the award of Channel 10 to Na tional Airlines after White side had given him $2,650, Mack denied any wrongdoing and said he would not resign. But Mack declined to reas sert this stand following tes ; timony by Whiteside linking him to the insurance company with television clients. Asked if he still had no intention of resigning. Mack told the United Press, "I have no com ment." One-Sixth Interest Whiteside said Mack holds a one-sixth interest in the Stembly - Sheldon insurance agency which has the account of the Channel 10 station owned by National Airlines. He said the agency also sold an insurance policy to Bis- cayne Television Corp. which operates Miami Channel 7. Mack also cast a favorable vote in the FCC's Channel 7 award. Whiteside, recalled for tes timony, told the House sub committee on Legislative Oversight Monday the insur ance arrangement "is com pletely proper if you take into consideration the cir cumstances." Moulder who quit the chair manship of the subcommittee over the firing of chief coun sel Bernard Schwartz, appar ently referred to the regula tion which specifically for bids any FCC member from being "financially interested . . . in any company furnish ing services or . . . apparatus to any company engaged in communication by wire or radio." Jacksonville Woman Seeks $12,500 in Suit Ora A. White, route 1, box 12E, Jacksonville, has filed a complaint in circuit court asking $81.75 medical ex penses and $12,500 general damages of Safewy Stores Inc., for injuries received when she tripped in the store Aug. 5, 1957. According to the complaint the plaintiff received multiple contusions of the right foot and leg and charged that the defendant was careless and negligent in allowing a box to obstruct the use of an aisle. The complaint states that plaintiff was unable to walk without assistance and use of a cane for six months following the accident. Ora White is represented by A. E. Piazza, local attorney.

Nikolai Bulganin may be kicked out soon as S6viet premier, diplo mats reported today. If Bulganin is ousted, the action would be further evi dence of the tightening grip of Communist party boss Nikita Khrushchev on the So viet Union. It also would mean Buleanin would not at tend an East-West "summit" conference if one is held. Little Doubt Left Bits and pieces of informa tion being fitted together here and in other Western capitals leave little doubt -in the minds of expert- on Rus sia that Bulganin's future as premier is bleak. In fact offi cial speculation already cen ters on who will succeed the moustached Soviet premier. Bulganin's reported skid may seem surprising because of the correspondence he has carried on recently with Presi dent Eisenhower on the sum mit issue. But experts doubt this prolonged ' correspond ence will deter other Krem lin big-wigs from giving Bul ganin the sack. The most important evi dence of trouble for Bulganin was a switch in the election district he is to represent in next month's Soviet elections. Soviet voters are to select 731 deputies for the Council of the Union and 633 deputies for the Council of Nationali ties. The two bodies make up the Supreme Soviet (Parlia ment). District Taken Away In the 1954 election Bul ganin represented the im portant Moscow city district in the Council of Nationali ties. Of course he won. But in next month's election the Moscow district has been tak en away from Bulganin and given to Nikblai M. Shvernik, former Soviet trade union leader. This shift has prompt ed speculation Shvernik might succeed Bulganin as premier. Airlines Face Strike Threat Washington (IP) The Na tional Mediation board is moving to head off a nation wide strike by airline me chanics and ground crews against seven major airlines. The board asked President Eisenhower Monday to name a fact-finding panel under provisions of the railway la bor act. This would prevent a strike for 60 days. The International Associa tion of Machinists has set Sunday for walkouts against Eastern and United Air lines. Negotiations also were broken off between the union and Trans World, Northwest, Capital, National and North east airlines. About 25,000 mechanics and ground crew personnel would be idled by a strike. The National Mediation board acted by certifying that a strike would seriously af fect interstate commerce. The seven airlines serve nearly every section of the country. Frank Heisler, airline coor' dinator for the machinists, said the union was asking wage increases ranging from 29 to 49 cents an hour. The machinists also are asking for (b) THAN ORDINARY WATER HEATERS "Westinghouse QUICK RECOVERY ELECTRIC WATER HEATERS 6 TIMES FASTER with exclusive high speed C0R0X direct heat elements i LOWER FIRST COST . . . compact, yet outperforms heaters twice its size LOW OPERATING COST . . .costs no more than ordinary heaters s LESS SPACE NEEDED As Low As 2 EASY TERMS you CAN If sim.r.Ts;estinhouse o Trowbridge & Fiynn Elec.

The Indonesian army urged all people living in rebel-held territory in Central Sumatra Governors Cry Slates' Rights On Water Issue Colorado Springs, Colo. itf) Cries of states' rights arose today at the Western Governors conference here over control of water conser vation and development. The governors from nine Western states and Hawaii opened their second day of a three-day meeting at the Broadmoor hotel on a discus sion of Western natural re sources. A recent U. S. Supreme Court decision allowing con struction of a dam in Oregon over ; Oregon's objections was brought into the discus sion. "We view this with a great deal of alarm in Oregon, and I think the other Western states join me in this," said Gov. Robert D. Holmes of Oregon, who heads the natur al resources discussion and the Governors' Resolutions committee. Decisions Condemned He said the court decision permits the federal govern ment to overturn long-established state sovereignty over water laws at a time when many western states are try ing to tighten regulation of water storage and use. The decision, the Pelton case, ruled the Federal Pow er commission could license construction by a private con cern on a non-navigable, in trastate stream despite pro tests of the Oregon State Fish and Game commission, which in the past had held author ity. Later, the Navy Depart ment said in view of the Pel ton decision it did not need Nevada's permission to drill six wells. Nevada protested, and the case is pending in federal court. company contributions to the health and welfare funds and setting up of severance pay systems. and Northern Celebes to stay clear of "military objectives." A rebel spokesman said the revolutionary forces would retaliate in kind if the cen tral government in Jakarta launches military operations. Des Alwi, a spokesman for the revolutionary regime, said the rebels are buying planes to challenge the air force of President Sukarno's govern ment. He said a "strong coun ter attack" will be launched against the central govern ment "in the near future." 'Definite Targets' Military spokesman Maj. G. Harsono said, in Jakarta that the week end raids that si lenced rebel radios in Central Sumatra and Northern Cele bes were directed against "definite targets." He said pilots had been or dered to avoid causing "vic tims among the people." ' Harsono said the appeal to stay clear of military targets applied to the armed forces in the rebel territories as well as to the civilian population. ' Reports from Jakarta said Prime Minister Djuanda met Monday night for nearly three hours with the chiefs of staff of the three military services. The official Indone sian news agency Antara said it was believed the talks dealt with "further action" against the rebels. To Take Necessary Measures Sukarnoh as warned that all measures necessary will be taken to "crush" the revo lutionary regime set up by the "young colonels" in Central Sumatra and North Celebes in i : Murder Charged In Stayton Death Albany, Ore. (IP) Bruce Westerberg, 35, was charged with second degree murder Monday in connection with the fatal shooting Feb. 18 of Thomas Phillips, Lyons, Ore., during a party at the Wester berg home. Westerberg's wife, Hazel, was charged with being an accessory after the fact. Wendell Widdle, Stayton mortician, discovered a bullet wound when he examined Phillips' body last Wednes day. District Attorney Court ney Johns said Westerberg allegedly shot a glass from the hand of his wife to prove his accuracy with a .22 cali ber rifle. He said the inci dent occurred during a party at their home across the San tiam river from Stayton, The unforgettable performances are on F3 RECORDS HALL OF FAME series fJHM each Mi extended play yt 45rpm record Sip aH,T!

' A naval blockade has been established at Padang, the re bel stronghold in Central Su matra. Indonesian Air Force planes have carried out at least three raids on rebel held territory. The air raids knocked out three rebel radios," at Padang and Bukittinggi, "capital" of the revolutionary regime in Central Sumatra, and at Me- nado, on the northern tip of Celebes. United Press correspondent William Miller reported from Manila that Alwi said the re bels are negotiating the pur chase of DC-3 twin-engined aircraft "in several Asian na tions" and finding no diffi culty.
