Cooler weath er was expected from Cali fornia across the central pla teau and from Lower Michi gan into the lower Ohio Val ley. Rising readings were an ticipated in the Midlands, the southern Rockies, New Eng land and Virginia. Kennedy Wants No Votes Because 01 Religion Weshlngton-ftTO-Sen. John F. Kennedy said today he wants no votes just because he is a Catholic and that the Democratic party does not have to nominate him to escape a "Catholic revolt" In the 1860 presidential election. Kennedy dealt with the "re ligious issue" in the 1960 cam paign bluntly and at length in a speech prepared for the annual meeting of the Ameri can Society of Newspaper Editors. Two other announced Dem o c r a t i c candidates - Bens, Stuart Symington (Mo.) and Hubert H. Humphrey (Minn.) also spoke before the organi zation. Symington attacked the Eisenhower admin istration for what he called its "obsess ion" that the nation can build stn.ngth in one field only by sacrificing power In another. Shuns Vice Presidency Kennedy reiterated that he is unimpressed with argu ments that he should avoid religious controversy by with drawing from the race for the Democratic presidential nomi nation and accepting second place on the ticket. The Massachusetts senator said: "Surely those who believe it dangerous to elect a Cath olic as President will not want him to serve as vice president, a heart - beat away from the office." "The alternative" he said "is to proceed with the pri maries, the convention and the election. If there is bigo try in the country, then so be it - there is bigotry. If that bigotry is too great to permit the fair consideration of a Catholic who has made clear h 1 s complete independence and his complete dedication to separation of the church and state, then we ought to know it. "But I do not believe that this is the case. I believe the American people are more concerned with a man's views and abilities than with the church to which he belongs." Press Has Responsibility Kennedy said he was tired of being described as a "Cath olic candidate" for the presi dency, "I am not the Catholic candidate for President," he said. "I do not speak for the Catholic church on Issues of public policy and no one in that church speaks to me." He said the press has a grave responsibility In dealing with the issue and must be ware of magnifying It or sim plifying it. Symington defended his de cision not to compete against Humphrey and Kennedy in presidential primaries, which he said brought candidates be fore only "random fractions" Of the voters. "They tend to become per sonality contests," he said. They embitter men of funda mentally similar views, who later must work together to meet our national needs. They are ill-suited to the systematic discussion of great issues. bymlngton described his speech as the first of a series of related statements which would outline his views. He aid building national strength called for: -uearing economic per formance 10 capacity to pro vide faster economic growth to help serve domestic needs, support national defense and expand U.S. peace efforts, Combat Social Problem! -Use Increased economic strength to combat problems of unemployment, poverty, in flation, care for the aged, ed ucation, farm income, slums and medical care. -"Full extension of justice and equality of opportunity in our political, civil and eco nomic affairs." -Redefine relations with other free peoples to make them aware of American mor al purposes, to provide food because they are hungry, not to get rid of farm surpluses, and to help them live better lives, not just to resist Com munism. -Find a more workable way to live with totalitarian stales without Jeopardising American freedom.

Revision Attempts gan (D-Pa.) of the house for eign affairs committee said "we think we should be able to hold our position" against a flock of amendments from critics of the program. Morgan, house floor man ager of the bill, said he hoped for passage by nightfall al though there still was the possibility ilnal house action might be put off until Friday. As it stood the measure fixed a S4.038.400.000 limit on military and economic aid to free world allies in the bookkeeping . year which be gins July 1. This compared with Eisen hower's request for a $4,175, 000.000 authorization bill and a $4,145,600,000 measure which was approved Wednes day by the Senate foreign re lations committee. Both the house : nd senate bills simply set ceilings on Woman Gets Help in Hike Winnemucca, Nev. - (UPD - A retired California electrician, who decided to carry cross country hiker Dr. Barbara Moore's baggage, and the 56-year-old vegetarian met 30 miles west of here today. Joseph T. Hodges, 62, set out from his home at Valjejo, Calif., Wednesday to rendez vous with Dr. Moore after it was learned her sponsor had quit and headed back east leaving her to carry a heavy pack containing her ration of health foods. Hodges said he "wanted to make a trip anyway, so why not help Dr. Moore out." The woman, whose march out ot Lovelock was hampered by a windstorm Wednesday, said she would be glad to have Hodges' help. He was driving a pickup truck with a camping trailer. She started off today only about 40 - miles behind two British servicemen, Sgts. Pat rick Moloney, 34, and Mervyn Evans, 33, who spent the night eight miles east of here on Highway 40. All three hope to break the record of 79 days, 10 hours and 10 minutes between San Francisco and New York set back in 1926. '9) Where you plant your money does make a difference Robert F. Kyle, Manager One last hour of House de- bate was all that was allotted before a rollcall vote on final passage of the second major civil rights legislation since the reconstruction era. Democratic leaders arranged spending, however. The actual cash must be appropriated in separate legislation and there are signs that this amount will be far below the figures in the authorization bills. Other congressional news: Minimum Wage: Labor Sec retary James P. Mitchell plan ned to ask Congress for a "moderate" hike in the federal minimum wage and extension of coverage to more than 3 million additional workers. But he was set to tell a house labor subcommittee the Eisen hower administration opposed an increase from $1 to $1.25 an hour and extension to another 7,500.000 workers.

The main feature provides for ap pointment by federal Judges or referees empowered to de termine voting qualifications of Negroes turned down by local registrars.
