But like Humphrey earlier, Kennedy said he would not pull out if he should lose in Wisconsin. The two candidates face a rematch in the West Virginia primary May 10. This contest will be watched by politicians trying to measure the effect of the religious issue in the 1960 campaign. Less than 5 per cent of West Virginia's residents share Kennedy's Catholic faith.

Sympathizers Said To Hold High Positions Washington (UPD Secre tary of State Christian A. Her ter says Premier Fidel Cas tro's Cuban regime appears to follow a Communist pattern in some of its actions. Herter also said Communist sympathizers hold high gov ernment positions but added that "I don't think anyone could say affirmatively that Cuba is Communist at the present time." He made the statements in an interview with Sen. Lev erett Saltonstall (R-Mass.). The program was recorded be fore the State Department an nounced Friday that U. S. Am bassador Philip Bonsai would return to Cuba. Returns lo Cuba Bonsai went back to Ha vana Sunday in a new effort to improve U.S.-Cuban rela tions. He was recalled Jan. 22 in protest against attacks on him and this country by Cuban officials. Herter said Castro's atti tude toward the United States has been "very difficult for us to take because we have been subject to innuendoes and accusations which really required us, as you know, to withdraw our ambassador from Cuba." The secretary declared that the United States was very sympathetic to the aims of the Castro revolution. He said this country never has ob jected to Castro's land reform law, but does insist that U.S. owners be compensated for property taken from them. Other Comments Herter also commented that he thought Cuba "got the short end" of its recent eco nomic pact with the Soviet Union but he did not explain why. On other matters, he: -Warned against expecting dramatic results from the Big Four summit conference be ginning May 16 at Paris. -Predicted a United West ern front on Germany and other issues at the confer ence. -Reiterated that the United States would not agree to any disarmament proposals which fail to provide for effective control or inspection to guard against cheating.

Attorneys to Fight Mass Negro Arrests Washington (UPD A con ference of civil fights attor neys agreed Saturday to use every legal means to fight the mass arrests and fines arising from the wave of Negro lunch counter strikes in the south ern states. . The ' attorneys, who are holding a three-day strategy meeting here, signaled a new round of segregation test suits aimed at coming to the legal defense of Negro students in volved in the southern "sit in" strikes.

Pdid Pol.-Adv. E. H. Mann P.O. Box 1587 r Another Week forecast in Mate on CSviO Eights Act Washington (UPD Senate Democratic Whip Mike Mans field (D-Mont.) today forecast "at least another week" of de bate before Congress finishes with civil rights legislation. Mansfield said he saw no indication that the House would complete action on a civil rights bill before the middle of the week. The Sen ate still would need time to act on the House version. N Both the Senate and House resumed the civil rights bat tle at noon, with the Senate entering its sixth consecutive week on the subject and the House starting a second full week of discussion. New Drive in Senate Action in the House centers on Southern attempts to weaken a section based on a modified form of the adminis tration proposal for court-appointed referees to oversee Negro voting rights. And in the Senate, liberals began a new drive to strength en the referee plan. The lat est move, by Sens. Jacob K. Javits (R-N.Y.) and Joseph S. Clark (D-Pa.), was a try at writing in a combination of the referee plan and a system of federal enrollment officers, first suggested by Sen. Thom as C. Hennings Jr. (D-Mo.). Senate leaders still planned to let the House act first in hopes it would pass a bill that the Senate could approve without change. This would HypothermiaUsed In Brain Surgery After Heart Stops Rochester, Minn., (Science Service)-A brain tumor has been removed from a patient whose heart stopped just be fore surgery began. The surgeons who perform ed the operation, Drs. Alfred Uihlein, Robert G. Lippert, and John S. Welch of the Mayo Clinic here, believe the operation was successful be cause": they subjected the pa tient to hypothermia (lowering of the body temperature.) If the heart stops, the brain is quickly damaged. The May6 surgeons used hypo thermia to minimize this brain damage. Lesion of Brain The case history of theitf 35-year-old male patient, re ported in the current Proceed ings of the Staff Meetings of the Mayo Clinic, included sev eral head injuries and con vulsive seizures. Laboratory tests showed a lesion on the under side of the brain. This lesion had pushed the brain slightly askew. Surgery was needed to remove the lesion. While the general anes thetic was being given, the man's heart stopped. Imme diately his chest was opened under unsterile conditions and the surgeon began heart massage. Heart Began io Beat After 30 to 60 seconds, the heart began to beat regular ly. Two and one-half minutes after the heart had stopped there Was a pulsation in the wrist again. Blood pressure, pulse and breathing were stable within 35 minutes after the chest incision was closed. Now the question arose: Should the patient be subject ed to the added physical shock of an operation? The brain was already in danger of damage from the earlier heart arrest. Pressure inside the brain, purposely introduced during one of the pre-operative tests, might kill the patient or cause the heart to stop again if the space occupying lesion, was not re moved immediately. The de cision; continue. Temperature : Forced Down A refrigeration blanket was wrapped around the pa tient, forcing his body tem perature to drop four degrees in one hour. The tumor, con taining blood and a small nodule, was then removed. There was no sign of brain or nerve damage and the body temperature then was allowed to creep up to normal. The patient made a rapid recovery. At the time of his discharge, his heart was be having normally. He had a slight weakness in the left arm, but this had been severe before the operation. This condition was slowly disap pearing.

De Gaulle Stand Stirs Political Storm in France Paris-OIPD-President Charles de Gaulle's refusal to sum mon Parliament into session on farm problems stirred up a political storm among the So cialists today 48 hours before Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's arrival. Former Premier Guy Mil letj Socialist party chief, sum moned a meeting of his party leadership for Tuesday. There were reports he might call an emergency national party con vention. The conservative daily newspaper Figaro said de Gaulle's increasing trend to ward one man rule had "push ed the Socialist party . . to ward the Communists." Indignation Shown In all political circles there was some indignation at de Gaulle. Some rightwing poli ticians feared there was grow ing danger of a "popular front" which the Communists have sought for so long. The trend to the left ap peared to be a windfall for the Communists who have been laying extensive plans to reap political benefits from the Khrushchev visit. An absolute majority-287 of 551 deputies-of the Na tional Assembly has demand ed an emergency session to debate farm problems. The farmers protest they are being squeezed in de Gaulle's aus terity program for the na tion. But de Gaulle said Friday he would not call Parliament back because this would be to bow to pressure groups and violate the spirit of the consti tution.

Wall Street Chatter New York-(UPD-The Federal Reserve Board is supposed to be "leaning" less against the winds of inflation the inflation winds are sup posedly not blowing quite so hard, says Frank L. Elliott of Fame, Webber, Jackson & Curtis. The present restrictive policy was initiated Sept. 12, 1958 if you figure inception only from the first increase in the rediscount rate, he points out. "I think that a year and a half is a long time to keep the economy in a vise without risking harmful side affects and that a moderate change in policy now would benefit the economy." Elliott asserts that the re striction should have served its purpose by now if it is to be effective at all, and "over maintained restriction may in vite recession." Bache & Co. says Bruns wick - Balke - Collender has formed an interesting and rare chart pattern during the past two months. A long rise like this issue has had usually signals a reversal of the pri mary trend, the investment firm notes. The contrary petroleum in dustry is expected to go its way again this year, says the Value Line Investment Sur vey. Most industries should have excellent first half prof its, but face the prospect of leveling sales and growing pressure on margins in the closing six months, Value Line notes. "But the oil com panies will have a poor first half, and then probably enjoy increased sales and wider margins after mid-year. Thia second half improvement should be enough to make 1960 as good or slightly better than 1959." RONrC delicious with fish! So tiny end light you won't know you have it on.
