Students Threaten Boycott;
KacoaB Situation Tightens
- Montgomery, Ala. - (DPD
Nearly half the student body
of Alabama State College for
Negroes threatened to boycott
spring quarter registrations
today in protest against segre
gation.
By mid-morning there was
no indication, however,
whether the boycott pledge
made at a Friday night mass
meeting would be effective.
The school's registrar said
students register in various
sections of the school by
classes.
Authorities feared a boycott
would further tighten already
taut racial feelings which
nearly exploded into blood
shed Sunday when a jeering
crowd of 10,000 whites pre
vented 2,000 Negroes from
holding a prayer meeting on
the state capitol steps.

Complaint of Boy
Inspecting Troops
Frankfurt, (Germany - (DPD -The
U. S. Army investigated
a complaint today that the 9-year-pld

dressed in a - pint-sized uni
form and swagger stick, con
ducted his own "inspection"
of troops under his father's
command., ,
-Young Ricky Juergen3 was

Lt. Col. P. J. Corso, inspec

Col. Juergens, a veteran of
more than 20 years army serv

but said he had not been
aware of what .the boy was
doing. " ' ,
"I wasn't paying too much
attention," he said. "An in

much chance to notice any
thing beyond what he is do

An Army spokesman said
Ricky's father bought the
cloth for his son's uniform
and men of the 71st Ordnance
Battalion paid for the tailor
ing and adopted the boy as
their "mascot."
" A 7th Army spokesman said
the incident appeared to be
"misunderstanding" since
the boy, as mascot, had been
invited to attend the inspec
tion. "Apparently he just got out
of hand," the spokesman said.
"But the incident is being in
vestigated fully. You can rest
assured it won't happen
again."
How does Ricky feel about

The police were cheered on

Fearing a full-scale riot,
fire trucks with sirens scream

authorities threatened to turn
powerful water hoses on the

New
Hampsh
ire to
Be in Political
Spotlight Tuesday
Washington -(DPD Political
map-readers will . watch the
New Hampshire presidential
primaries Tuesday for fresh
clues to show where voters
are heading in this presiden
tial election year.
The clues could be provided
by write-in votes for president
or vice president, or strong
showings by supporters of
presidential candidates other
than . Vice President Richard
M. Nixon and Sen. John F.
Kennedy (D-Mass.).
New Hampshire traditional
ly holds the nation's bell
wether presidential primary.
The next test will not come
until Wisconsin votes four
weeks from Tuesday.
Nixon Unopposed
On the Republican ballot in
New Hampshire, Nixon is un
opposed in the direct presi
dential preference vote. 'On
the Democratic ballot, Ken
nedy has only nominal oppo
sition from Paul C. Fisher, a
Chicago manufacturer.
A conspicuous blank space
on the ballot almost invites
write-in votes from persons
dissatisfied with the principal
candidates. Write-in votes for
vice president also are per
mitted. -
A spectacular write-in vote
for Nixon in 1956 helped stall
Harold E. Stassen's drive to
block the renomination of the
vice president as President
Eisenhower's running mate.
Backers of both Nixon and
Kennedy will be pressing for
a big vote. Comparisons will
be risky, however, because
Republicans normally out
number Democrats in New
Hampshire by a substantial
margin.
Elect Convention Delegates
In addition to the presiden
tial preference balloting, New
Hampshire voters will, elect
delegates to the national po
litical conventions. Democrats
will choose 20, each with half
a vote, and the GOP will elect
14, each with one vote.
Other political develop
ments over the week end:
-Kansas Democrats wound
up their state convention with
out indicating clearly- who
will get the state's support for
the presidential nomination.
Organizers for both Kennedy
and Symington claimed a ma
jority of the 21 Kansas votes
at the national convention.
-Sen. Herman E. Talmadge
(D-Ga.) predicted that Demo-
cratlc National Chairman
Paul M. Butler "won't last
long" as party leader after the
July convention. Talmadge

Administration's
$915 Million
Request Argued
Washington-(DPD-The House
launches a "dollars and sense"
debate today on the admin
istration request for $915 mil
lion to run the nation's space
program in the next fiscal
year.
There has been consider
able congressional Democrat
ic criticism about the pro
grams of the National Aero
nautics and Space Adminis
tration, both concerning the
amounts of money the civilian
group asks and for what it
uses the funds.
The President asked in his
budget for $915 million for
the year beginning July 1 and
NASA endorsed the exact
amount.
Some congressmen have
said the agency isn't pushing
ing hard enough and ought
to ask for more money in
order to catch and pass the
Soviet Union in the prestige
race for space supremacy.
Others have charged the
naton's security was at stake
in a military sense by what
they term the failure of the
administration to hurry de
velopment of super rockets
and orbiting, missile-warning
satellites.
Rep. B. F. Sisk (D-Calif.),
a member of the House Space
committee, declared Sunday
that "a new world cannot be
conquered with pennies."
Sisk questioned a slowdown
in development of the F-l
rocket, designed to help this
country put a man on the
moon. He rejected a claim by
associate NASA administrator
Richard Horner that Congress
forced the cutback by voting
only about half the $35 mil
lion requested for the rocket
in the -current year.
The congressman charged
that if NASA had regarded
the project "with the same
sense of urgency it merits,"
it would have scraped up the
necessary funds by trimming
less essential programs.
Other congressional news:
Personnel: Northern sena
tors hoped the Sabbath break
would cure them at least
temporarily from the loss of
sleep due to the continuous
sessions and ' tne trequent
after-midnight quorum calls
by Southern filibuster forces.
Southerners went back to
their talkathon with rested
throats and new stocks of de
bate material.
Retirement: Sen. Hubert H.
Humphrey (D-Minn.) called
for a six-point federal pro
gram to provide better refire-
ment security for the nation's
16 million senior citizens. The
Democratic presidential candi
date proposed extension of
Social Security benefits, some
tax breaks and assistance for
old age housing.
Elvis Presley at
Home in Memphis
Memphis-flJPD-Elvis Presley
got home from the Army to
day and headed for a mess of
black-eyed peas at his $100,
000 suburban mansion.
A . rather small group of
girls and women greeted the
train here.
But things back at the Pres
ley ranch were somewhat
more along the lines to which
the singer had grown accus
tomed. An estimated 300 fans
crowded in front of the iron
gate to catch a glimpse of
Elvis.
The reception was a con
trast to the scene in Knox
ville Sunday night when the
train made a stop.
The crowd cheered wildly
and chanted, "We want Elvis."
One girl tried to scale a lad
der at the end of the car and
was hauled down by a burly
policeman as the group booed.
Another young girl sobbed,
"I saw Elvis," and tears ran
down her face.

Washington -(UPD-The still
deadlocked Senate, mildly re
freshed by a Sunday of rest,
reconvened at noon today for
another week of record-shattering
civil rights debate.
No signs of any break in
the deadlock developed dur
ing the one-day time out tak
en by the senators. Both sides
in the fight were prepared for
another grueling round of
night-and-day debate.
Decisive Votes Hoped
Most of the senators spent
the recess from 5:31 p.m. Sat
urday to noon today catching
up on their sleep and renew
ing an acquaintanceship with
their families.
Democratic Leader Lyndon
B. Johnson of. Texas told Unit
ed Press International he
hoped some decisive 'votes on
the controversial legislation
might be taken this week but
conceded he did not know
whether this was possible.
In last week's sixrday ses
sion, the Senate set two en
durance records without any
significant votes being taken.
House Debate Due
The new week also posed
the likelihood of both branch
es of Congress debating civil
rights at the same time. House
About one-fifth of the hu
man race is Chinese.
debate is scheduled to begin
Thursday on a milder civil
rights bill.
It has become more and
more apparent that the Sen
ate's main hope for a solution
lies in action on a House
passed bill. Senate GOP Lead
er Everett M. Dirksen (111.)
said passage of a House bill
could shorten Senate debate.
' The determined Southern
bloc of 18 senators, fighting
all civil rights proposals, was
well organized and showed no
signs of halting its talkathon.

Budget Balancing
Not Necessary,
Secretary Asserts
Washington (DPI) Treasury
Secretary Robert B. Anderson
says it is not necessary to bal
ance the federal budget every
year if the government op
erates on a surplus basis over
the long run.
Anderson said budgets
should be geared to provide
surpluses in prosperous years.
But he said "deficits of mod
erate size are probably un
avoidable - and indeed, they
may be desirable during per
iods of economic recession."
Highly Desirable
"We do not necessarily
have to strive for a rigorous
balance in the budget year in
and year out," Anderson said.
"The goal of a net surplus
in the budget, not only in
prosperous periods but, on the
average, over a longer period
of time also, is highly desir
able." Anderson said President Ei
senhower's projected $4,200,
000,000 surplus for the fiscal
year starting July 1 was fully
consistent with this approach
"since about 5 per cent of the
revenues were earmarked for
debt retirement."
"Would Be Deficit
"If economic conditions
were to change drastically
and if a recession were to set
in," he added, "the surplus
would automatically be con
verted into a moderate deficit
as tax revenues decreased and
certain types of expenditures
rose."
Anderson stressed that a
1961 recession "is a contigen
cy which does not seem to be
likely, but of course is always
a possibility."
