Brooks Hays Concedes Defeat To Write-In Foe Little Rock, Ark.-flMt-B.ep Brooks Haysf (D-Ark.), a vet eral of eight terms in Wash ington, conceded defeat Wednesday to Dr. Dale Al ford, an ardent segregationist who conducted a last-minute write-in campaign in Arkan sas Fifth District. Hays, president of the Southern Baptist Convention, is also a segregationist, but a moderate. No Further Ambitions The congressman said he does not have "any further political ambitions" and plans to devote his full time after Jan. 1 with the Southern Bap tists. Alford confined his cam paign to two or three televis ion speeches in which he at tacked Hays as a "mild, non- aggressive congressman." Gov. Orval Faubus, himself reelected to a third term by a 5-1 margin in Tuesday's gen eral election, called the Al ford victory "remarkable" i because Alford's name was not on the ballot, he was not the Democratic Party's non inee, he did not have Negro support and he lost well-or ganized counties. Democrat Alford is an ear, nose and throat specialist and a member of the Little Rock School Board. Hays, also a Democrat, said he was "hurt" that Alford de cided to run at the last min ute. He said a write-in cam paign is justified only if the party nominee changes his views on the issues that got him his party's nomination. Hays said he had not changed his views since win ning the Democratic nomina tion in July.

Amazingly .Simple Priced at Only 229 95 Assault Troops Moving Inland In Maneuvers San Simeon, Calif. (DPD More than 13,000 troops began moving into the hills of Hun ter Liggett Military Reserva tion and Camp Roberts today as the largest Army-Navy maneuvers since 1950 went into its second day. The assault troops, most of whom are from the Army's fourth Infantry Division, Fort Lewis,- Wash., landed by boat and helicopter Wednesday morning in the simulated atomic battle of exercise Rocky Shoals. The landing, although delayed two hours to permit a thick fog to lift, went off without a hitch as the troops poured ashore from a 40-ship task force manned by 12,000 sailors. Clouds of Smoke Simulated atomic blasts sent clouds of smoke mush rooming over the maneuver area as amphibious tracked vehicles led the assault, fol lowed by other landing craft with troops and vehicles. Fleets of troop - carrying helicopters from the world's first helicopter assault carrier, the Thetis Bay, lifted more assault troops overhead in a test of the "vertical envelope ment" theory of battle. Under this new concept of warfare, troops borne by 'copters sur round enemy units and knock them out with low yield atomic weapons. To End Nov. 10 Maneuvers will continue ashore until Nov. 10, when re-embarkation begins. High ranking umpires will evaluate the efficiency of the exercise in critiques which may rfesult in the rewriting the Army textbooks. Over 500 American and for eign military observers,- in cluding Rep. Fleet Adm. Ches ter W. Nimitz, watched Wednesday's landing, planned since last February. Pasternak Tells Of Prize Refusal Moscow-(UPD-Soviet author Boris Pasternak said today in the Communist newspaper Pravda that he ' voluntarily turned down the Nobel Prize for literature because the award was "a political' meas ure." He said in a letter to the editor that he first "rejoiced" on learning he had been nom inated for the prize and ac cepted the honor as a literary distinction. v "But I was wrong," he said. Pasternak added that he knew five years ago he had been mentioned as a possible Nobel winner for his literary achievements, before his con troversial novel "Dr. Zhiva go" was published. He said publication of the novel,- which other Soviet writers have charged contains "hypocritical" references to the October revolution, made him . change his mind about the award. Election Brings New Crop of Demo Presidential Prospects Washington - (UPD - A re- of whom won smashing vic freshed crop of Democratic tories on Tuesday. It includes presidential prospects came out of Tuesday's elections, and their chances may be determ ined by the record of the 86th Congress. One of their number, Sen ate Democratic Leader Lyn don B. Johnson of Texas, will be a key figure in shaping the political destinies of all - as well asthe record on which they must stand in 1960. Johnson has been a consist ent advocate of "constructive, responsible, moderate" Demo cratic action. But he has shown he can interpret that philosophy to include make work spending like that of his New Deal days as well as middle-ground compromising on such issues as civil rights. Friends concede Johnson may have more trouble keep ing party harmony in a Sen ate which has 62 Democrats instead of 49. But he is re ported ready to come up with a strong program of legisla tive action covering most of the points liberal Democratic colleagues will be demanding. 'Compromise' Candidate . Because of the Democrats' split on civil rights Johnson's chances of getting his party s presidential nomination as suming he wants it are tied to his appeal as a "compro mise" candidate plus his rec ord as a "can do" leader in Congress. But the presidential aspira tions of others will come a lot closer to the surface in the Senate and in various state capitals in the next two years. High on the list are Demo cratic Sens. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts and Stuart Symington of Missouri, both Democratic Sens. Hubert H. Humphrey of Minnesota, and Albert Gore and Estes Ke- fauver, . both of, Tennessee. Democratic Sen.-elect Edmund S, Muskie of Maine, a new comer, also must be counted as a potential candidate for the future. California's governor-elect Democrat Edmund G. Brown, brings a new prospect into the presidential arena. Brown, like Michigan's Gov. G. Men nen Williams, who won his sixth term this week, may find his political horoscope altered by what' Johnson and House Speaker Sam Rayburn get through the new Congress. Meyner Strong Possibility- New Jersey's Gov. Robert G. Meyner, a strong presiden tial possibility in a state which grabbed a Senate seat from the GOP on Tuesday, is an other in the same boat. . " ., Republican presidential con tenders "must run " against, rather than on, any Demo cratic legislative program. This may present a problem in itself. On many proposals there is little real difference between what President Eisen hower has asked and what the Democratic 85th Congress gave him. This problem has bothered Vice President Richard M. Nixon, still the GOP front- runner for the presidency in 1960 despite the challenge raised by millionaire Nelson A. Rockefeller's gubernatorial victory in New York. Nixon has demonstrated he intends to take over more Republican Party control in the next two j years. ' Historically presi dential nominees are more likelv to come from a governor's man sion than the U. S. Senate. That's a plus for Rockefeller along with his big 1958 elec tion triumph. But he has to make his own record in office -and one to be compared with that of the Democrats. 3f225iE2 Good Redding i for the i Whole Family!

Garden Furnace Produces Steel Tokyo -rflJPD- Madame Sun Yat-Sen, the most powerful woman in Communist China, is doing her bit for Peiping's industrial "great leap for ward" program by turning out steel in her garden in Shanghai.
