I Making Stronger
- Bid Than Expected
; Washington -1UPD- A plan
I carefully worked out by
I House leaders to push the ad-
minstration's voting referee
J proposal through Congress
showed some signs today of
. falling apart.
The plan was agreed to last
week end by Democratic and
Republican leaders with some
concessions being made to
Southerners in an effort to
head off delaying tactics.
5 Sironger Bid
, But Southern Democrats
t are making a stronger bid
j than expected to water down
j the proposal which would au-
Z thorize federal courts to ap-
Z' point referees to guarantee
I. Negro voting rights.
Z There were indications that
the Southerners would pick
I up some GOP support for a
proposed amendment to limit
the plan to elections for fed-
eral officials. It now would
Z- apply also to state and mu
4 nicipal elections.
The Southerners had a
series of other amendments in
reserve.
Grumblings in Camp
i There were grumblings in
the GOP camp about floor
maneuvers that resulted in
putting a Democratic, instead
1 of a Republican, name on the
2 pending administration pro-
posal.
The squabble over the ref-
t etee amendment washed out
chances that the House could
pass the civil rights bill today
and send it to the Senate.
Leaders hoped for a final
1 House vote Friday.
Adoption Irks Southerners
: Southern Democrats were
obviously irked by adoption
o Wednesday of an amendment,
t worked out by civil rights
i backers in , both parties, to
stiffen the referee plan. "
The amendment, approved
I by a vote of 188-120, rein
- . states some authority that was
stricken from the proposal as
! o concession to the Southern-
- ers.
I The amendment would re-
'l quire referees to act promptly
on Negro applications for v.ot
ing rights.

i: In Demonstration
London-fllPD-More than 100
Arab students demonstrated
against British arms sales to
Israel and scuffled with police
today when Israeli Premier
Igavid Ben-Gurion arrived for
talks with Prime .Minister
Harold Macmillan.
The demonstrators missed
Ben-Gurion's arrival but they
paraded around London Air
port with signs saying "no
more British arms to Isreal"
and "Israel is armed to the
teeth already."
o Police pushed them out of
the main roadway. There was
a brief scuffle.
BenCurion refused to con
firm or deny that he would
ask for arms to defend Israel
against its Arab neighbors,
some of whom are receiving
growing supplies of new
weapons from Russia.
But he repeated his call
for "complete disarmament in
tits Middle East, with mutual
ir$ction, before world dis
armament begins."

Butler Clings
To Job Despite
Party Squabble
New York (UPD Demo
cratic National Chair man
Paul M. Butler hung firmly
onto his job today despite a
demand that he quit if he was
the "Mr. X" who predicted
who would win the party's
presidential nomination.
Butler refused to confirm
or deny Wednesday that he
was the high Democratic
source who forecast the nomi
nation of Sen. John F. Ken
nedy (D-Mass.) on an early
ballot at the Los Angeles con
vention. But he rejected Sen.
Hubert H. Humphrey's de
mand that he quit if he was
the source.
Would Lessen Influence
In Washington, Speaker
Sam Rayburn (D-Tex.) said
the undenied prediction would
"tremendously lessen" But
ler's influence in the party.
Senate Majority Leader
Lyndon Johnson (Tex.) stayed
aloof from the squabble. '
Butler, in New York to ad
dress the National Democratic
Club, said he was distressed
by Humphrey's attack because
he had great admiration for
the senator.
Butler noted however that
he had been national chair
man for five years and three
months "despite various de
mands for my retirement."
"I have no intention of re
signing," he said.
