Sparkman (D-Ala.) of the Senate Housing Subcom mittee says the Eisenhower administration "turned back 30 years" the clock on hous ing progress. Sparkman said Monday night he hoped that regardless of which party wins the elec tion next fall, the next ad ministration would improve on the housing record of the past eight years. In a speech at the closing banquet of the 29th annual National Housing conference, Sparkman said it was "sad" that Eisenhower did not dis cover the value of low-cost housing until his recent trip to Latin America. He quoted Eisenhower's re port to the nation last week in which . the President said he was "impressed" by a low cost housing project he visit ed in Chile. New York-(UPD-All govern ment taxes on gasoline fuel have increased more than 54 per cent in the last 10 years, according to the Tax Founda tion. And in the period stretching back to 1941, state gasoline tax receipts alone have tripled, the Foundation reports. Combined Federal and state levies brought in $1 billion in 1939, $2 billion in 1949 and more than $4 billion in 1958. REVIVAL MEETINGS! Evangelist ALLEN L.

Carver, Pastor Phone SP 2-2757 Administration Plan Designed To Meet Objections Washington - (UPD - The House today tackled a maze of proposals to safeguard Ne gro voting rights, including a revised administration plan designed to meet Southern ob jections. The number of voting pro posals three already in the hopper and more likely to come raised the prospect that the House would not reach a final vote on its civil rights bill until Friday. Demo cratic leaders had set Thurs day as a target date. The Senate continued to plod along with its civil rights debate waiting for the House to send it a bill. Sees Senate Acceptance Assistant Senate Democrat ic Leader Mike Mansfield (Mont.) concurred in forecasts the Senate would accept with out change whatever legisla tion the House approved. This would avoid the delay of Senate-House compromise efforts. Mansfield told a reporter the Senate might have to en voke cloture to limit debate when it takes up the House passed bill. Southern senators have tried to talk civil rights legislation to death. The Senate leader said he expected the House bill to be largely a voting rights meas ure embracing the Adminis tration's revised federal elec tion referees formula, backed by Democratic civil rights ad vocates. Would Permit Hearing One change in the GOP vot ing plan would permit a hear ing for state officials at an earlier stage in the procedure leading to appointment of a voting referee. The officials would be heard before a fed eral judge decided whether a pattern of discrimination ex isted to justify naming a referee. Another revision would re quire that the referee live in the judicial district where he would guard Negro voting rights. Goldwater Says Policy Leading To Surrender Phoenix - (CPD - Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz.) Monday night criticized the Eisenhow er administration, charging he believed its foreign policy was leading to a surrender to Com munism. Goldwater made his re marks from Washington dur ing -a telephone interview with a reporter for the Ari zona Republic. The Republi can leader said his criticism was contained in a speech which he planned to deliver in the Senate as soon as pos sible. "Here we are, the world's most powerful nation," said Goldwater. "We are allowing the Communist - controlled Castro regime to ridicule us. Getting Tired "As an American I am getting tired of this and sim ilar situations where we get slapped, turn the other cheek, get slapped again and then get kicked in the rear," the paper quoted Goldwater as saying. "We have to be tough and risk war," Goldwater was reported to have said. "If we dpn't we lose the battle with out firing a shot. We must take the risk of war or face abject surrender." Goldwater called for can cellation of the proposed sum mit meeting, resumption of atomic tests and the aband onment of disarmament talks. first, a cemetery that is affiliated with a well established mortuary (Conger Morris). jlLLCBESTPABK North Phoenix Road Phone SP 3-6162 or SP 2-7111 Eisenhower Openly Endorsed Nixon, London Newspaper Pispatch Asserts London -(UPD- The Times of London carried the following dispatch today from its Wash ington correspondent: "President Eisenhower has openly endorsed Vice Presi dent Nixon as the man to suc ceed him at the White House not that any other Republican has been in sight since the withdrawal of Governor Rock efeller. ' "He twice spoke of Mr. Nixon as his 'personal choice' at a week end dinner of the Gridiron Club, an exclusive body of American newspaper correspondents in Washington whose functions, are largely given to political satire. Iron ically they have been barred from using this, delectable Sun Satellite Streaking Further Into Outer Space Washington - (CPU -America's Pioneer , V sun satellite, its radio voice signaling loud and clear, streaked farther in to space today charting the way for future interplanetary travelers. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said the 94.8-pound "Paddle wheel" satellite was 644,430 miles away at noon (e.s.t.), heading for a centuries-long orbit around the suh 'between earth and Venus. Distance Record Broken The beachball-sized sphere has long since broken the long distance radio communica tions record of 407,000 miles set by the first U.S. solar satellite, Poineer IV. Pioneer V's tiny five-watt transmitter was performing perfectly, NASA said. An of ficial who heard its voice re layed by long distance tele phone from a tracking station said it was a pure highritch ed, sustained tone unmarred by any static sounds. In addition to providing a tracking signal, the satellite's little transmitter is relaying information periodically on command about radiations, charged particle clouds, mag netic fields, and micrometors in space.

The next day the manayer came to work and couldn't re member the, combination. He couldn't get at it either. It was locked in the safe. morsel of political intelligence under their rule that 'report ers are never present on such' occasions. - - "With the exception of Sen ator Humphrey (Minnesota) every conceivable candidate, Democrat or Republican, was Hall Lusk Named Mrs. Neuberger Says Gov. Hatfield 'Made Good Choice1 (Continued From Page 1) ' Mrs. Neuberger said Hat field made a "good choice" in selecting Justice . Lusk. She said he. "has, served the state of Oregon with distinction and honor." She added, "the governor had an obligation to his party to appoint a person who was not a candidate for public office. My husband . would have been the first to appreci ate this aspect of practical politics." . . Lusk was born in Washing ton, D.C. Sept 21, .1883, and moved to Oregon in 1909 after receiving a law: degree at Georgetown University. Assistant Attorney - For three years, beginning in 1919 he was an assistant U.S. attorney for Oregon and from 1930 to 1937. he was a Multnomah county circuit judge in Portland. - Democratic Gov. Charles H. Martin named Lusk to the State Supreme Court in 1937. He served as chief justice from 1949 to 1951. Lusk won a fourth six-term to the high court, four, years ago. : , . . Lusk is a Catholic and a member of the board of trus tees of the University of Port land. He also serves on the advisory board of Marylhurst college near Portland. His wife is the former Sara Catherine Emmons, .Portland. They have' five daughters and live here. Lusk will serve until gen eral election day, Nov. S. Good Man for Job. - Hatfield said " Lusk is "the best person I know -who could undertake such-awesome re sponsibilities on : such short notice without having to be s i m u 1 taneously making an emotional adjustment." He. re ferred to Sen. Neuberger's be reaved widow. "Mrs. Neuberger originally let it be known she would ac cept the interim appointment but could not reach a decision on a campaign. In return I sent word to her she could have the appointment for the interim but I would not choose from among active candidates of either party," he said. "When she announced her candidacy, she was deciding to stay in Oregon and cam paign rather than become en gaged with the business of the Senate. The several Republi can candidates and the several Democratic candidates for the nomination in the May elec tion do not therefore have any advantage by being here on the scene to campaign while she would be 3,000 miles away. No Advantage "This makes both the pri mary and the general election campaigns a 'fair play' affair with no advantages to either side," he added. Hatfield said he was sub jected to "considerable pres sure from various parts of the nation" to make the ap pointment from the Republi can ranks and thus test the 1953 Oregon law which re quires filling a vacancy by death or resignation by a per son of the same political par ty. The law has not been test ed in the courts and is regard ed by many as unconstitution al. Hatfield said in the final analysis he "turned down such urging." An unusual political by product of Sen. Neuberger's sudden death Wednesday is that. Oregon will elect two successors to Lusk, one to serve a short term and the other a full six-year term. The short term starts elec tion day and ends at noon Jan. 3, 1961, when the full term begins. Both Smith and Mrs. Neu berger seek the long and short terms. Only one of the other eight Senate candidates - five Democrats and three Republi cans - filed for the short term. He is George Altvater, Port land, a Republican. ' The others seek the six year term only. present to hear Mr. Eisenhow er's warming farewell re marks, the first of many he will be making this year. Speaking of the lonely burden of the presidency, he said his heart would be with his suc cessor whoever he might be. "Mr. Nixon sat on the other side of the chairman, and the President suggested that the simplest solution was to have him move over to his place. He has never given such an unreserved endorsement as this, and Mr. Nixon and his close associates are said to have look dumbfounded. "There have been moments when the true relationship be tween the two men has looked a little doubtful. Mr. Eisen hower, assuming that he would exert great influence on the nomination of the Repub lican candidate, has always avoided a direct endorsement in responding to frequent in vitations at his press confer ences to name his choice. He has spoken highly of Mr. Nix on and of his close associa tions with him, but has tl ways taken the position tht there are half a dozen Repub licans well qualified to suc ceed him." !
