Judge Solomon indicated he was not concerned with occasional delays in filing le gal documents due to an in sufficient typing staff but was genuinely interested in any prison regulations which might affect constitutional rights. Rules Defended "Inconvenience to the pris on staff is not enough cause to deprive any inmate of his constitutional right to access to the courts," Solomon said. He expressed concern that inmates were not allowed to make notes on legal matters and take them from the pris on library. He also was con cerned about the fundamen tal right of prisoners to access of the courts even though they might be in isolation. "No offense is so serious that a man should not get a chance to test the legality of his incarceration," the judge said. Most of the afternoon Sat urday was taken up with tes timony by Deputy Warden R. L. Barnes, who defended prison rules regarding handl ing of legal documents. Barnes told the court he thought that if prisoners were permitted to do legal work in their cells the smarter in mates would build up a "law practice" which they would sell to less bookish inmates. Would Create Problem He also said that permit ting inmates to have bound legal books in their cells would create a problem of accumulation and would make periodic searches of the cells more difficult. All the complaining in mates had a chance for a last word in the court Saturday as the judge called them one by one to reveal anything they had forgotten. Inmate Paul R.

Goldwater (R-Ariz.) has urged the Republican party to take its stand "to the right of center" in 1960 and nominate vice president Richard M. Nixon for the presidency. Goldwater, the only GOP conservative returned to the Senate in this month's elec tions, said the party cannot win two years hence unless it plays its traditional conserva tive role. He said Nixon was his per sonal choice to head the 1960 ticket and as of now the vice president "would be consider ed the leading candidate." Goldwater also took occa sion to declare that Gov .-elect Nelson Rockefeller of New York must prove himself a non-radical before he can be considered for the GOP presi dential nomination. "I'm not going to buy, so to speak, a millionaire in a poke," Goldwater said. "I'm going to see what he does as governor first. If he is going to be completely to the left and take up the radical cry of the Democrats I don't believe I can buy it." Johnson, Mexico President-Elect Discuss Relations Acapulco, Mexico - (UPD -Sen.

The answer to the prob lems of the Western ' Hemi sphere we will find together," he said. Johnson was invited to Acapulco by Lopez Mateos, who wil begin his six-year term Dec. 1. Johnson describ ed the new Mexican chief ex ecutive as a man of vision, boldness and determination. He said that during Lopez Mateos' administration the United States and Mexico will "set before the world an example of trusting neigh bors by making substantial advances toward the lowering of barriers which no longer need remain between us." Nixon, Rockefeller Have Understanding In Presidential Bid Washington (UPD - Vice President Richard M. Nixon has come to what amounts to a "hands off each other" po litical understanding with his chief potential presidential rival, Nelson A. Rockefeller.

Light Plane Hunted By Search Parties Portland - (UPD - Search was under way today for a Beech- craft Bonanza airplane pos sible carrying two or more persons on a flight from Yak ima to Portland.

Rockefeler gave the only public account of their dis cussion, held as Nixon was finishing preparations for his four-day visit to London. Past friends, they apparent ly talked frankly about their respective roles in rebuilding the GOP in the wake of the Nov. 4 Democratic election victories. Rockefeller, his party's most spectacular win ner, cleared the political air a little with this report: To Strengthen Party -Both agreed to "work to gether" in strengthening the Republican party. Rockefeller said he could best do that by tending to his job in New York. -Both agreed the two major political parties could best function by having "able, available men" who are well known in the country develop ed as candidates. Rockefeller replied in the affirmative when a reporter asked if this mean "every man for himself and encourage all" for the presidency. -Rockefeller said he told Nixon his own "sole concern is to do a good job" as gover nor of New York. The mil lionaire Republican said he has always worked with Parkyakarkus Dies Of Heart Attack Beverly Hills, Calif. (UPD Comic Harry Einstein, 56, Parkyakarkus of radio fame, collapsed of a heart attack during a star-studded Friars banquet and died early to day. A dramatic effort by doc tors at the banquet went on for an hour and a half be hind a thin partition at the Beverly Hilton hotel while Einstein's fellow performers went on with their banquet. The veteran radio perform er collapsed shortly after do ing a highly successful mono logue before a packed house of 1,150 of the entertainment world's biggest names. The performer, whose Pa rkyakarkus character was a radio favorite of millions of listeners, had been retired for several years. Nixon in government and ob served that "no one has been more helpful" to him than the vice president. Nixon-Rockefeller Ticket Political observers saw in the exchange a realistic ap preciation by both Nixon and Rockefeller that neither will have much chance of winning the presidency in 1960 if their party is weak, and if each has not made a good showing in his own job during the next two years.
