'Vigorous Action' Seen in Alford's Bid for House Seat Washington- (LTD -Rep. Ken neth B. Keating (R-N.Y.) pre dicted today the special House Elections Committee would "take vigorous action" on complaints against segrega tionist Dale Alford's write-in defeat of Rep. Brooks Hays (D-Ark.). Keating declined to elabor ate. But other sources specu lated the committee might go so far as to recommend that the new Congress refuse to seat Alford until a thorough investigation of his election has been conducted. The committee called a closed meeting to decide on what action to take as House Democrats at least tentatively excluded the Little Rock seg regationist from their ranks. They did not invite him to the Democratic Party caucus Jan. 6, paving the way for an almost certain showdown vote on whether to admit him at POLISH POLITICIAN DIES Warsaw (UPD Vladyslav Kowalski, veteran member of the central committee of the United Peasant Party and a former Polish cabinet minis ter, died here last Sunday, it was disclosed today. all to the majority party. The committee planned to decide whether to conduct a formal investigation of charges that fraud and conspiracy fig ured in Alford's last minute campaign against Hays, the veteran congressman who as sumed the role of a moderate mediator in Little Rock's seg regation troubles. Several committee members said there was no doubt the committee would decide to go ahead with the investigation. However, any decision to recommend that Congress temporarily refuse to seat Al ford was expected to come on a split vote. The commit tee is made up of two North ern Republicans, one North ern Democrat and two South ern Democrats. Meantime, Alford left the capital for Little Rock, shrug ging off the troubles that ap peared to be mounting in his path to the House. Labor's Attempt To Withdraw Students Rapped Portland - (CPU - The -Rev. Willis L. Whalen, principal of Central Catholic high school, Tuesday, rapped the Multno mah County Labor Council for trying to induce parents to withdraw their chidren from the school over a labor dis pute. Glenn Blake, labor council president, announced that the school was to be placed on the "unfair list." Blake said the unfair label means parents who belong to unions will be expected to take their chil dren out of the school. He also said the school probably would be picketed. Contract Refused The dispute arose from the priest's refusal to sign a con tract with the union covering four janitors. "When Mr. Blake urges Central parents to withdraw their children from school in order to force us to accede to union demands, he has hit a new low in boycotts," Father Whalen said. "Possibly this is the first time in our history that a union representative has sought to alienate a child from his school to achieve his ends." Blake said that circular! would be passed out in the next few days to the school's 965 students so they can in form parents of the union side of the dispute. - Give Him A Cellar ette liable Bar) This Christmas Choice of 4 Authentic Designs (Provincial, Colonial and Contemporary) Includes All Necessary Glassware and Bar Accessories Mixing Area of High Pressure Laminated Plastic Plenty Space for Bottles Prices Range from $119.50 SI 99.50 for the Unusual Gift for the home, shop UPPER T'S 220 N.
