Redevelopment
Bill Approved;
Defies President
Washington -(ITD-The House
h defied President Eisen
hower's warning against big
pending by approving a pro
gram nearly live times larger
than be recommended to help
areas with chronic unemploy.
ment.
The so-called $251 million
area redevelopment bill was
passed 201-184, Wednesday
night at a 10-hour House ses
sion., longest of the year. Op
ponents threw the parliament
ary rule book at the bill in
their effort to bluck It.
Rep. Daniel J. Flood ID-
Pa.), who helped engineer
House passage, called on the
Senate today to endorse the
bill "to show the President
this Is a congressional expres
sion of opinion two sessions in
a row."
The President vetoed a sim
ilar proposal in 1958 as too
expensive. House Republican
Leader Charles R- Halleck
(Ind.) said the present bill
probably was headed for the
same fate.
The Senate now has the op
tion of taking the House ver
sion or requesting a confer
ence committee to seek a com
promise. The House acted under a
rarely used rule Wednesday
night to put over the bill-just
one day after receiving a mes
sage from the President citing
the measure as an election
year "temptation to over
supend and overreach."
The bill proposes a program
ot federal loans and grants to
create jobs in areas with long
term unemployment. It has
strong support in the econom
ically depressed mining com
munities of West Virginia,
Kentucky and Pennsylvania.

Lack of Oxygen
Possibly Caused
Pilot To Drift
Washington-fUPD-The State
Department said today that
an American plane may have
drifted across the Russian
border last Sunday as a re
sult of the pilot becoming un
conscious from lack of oxy
gen.
The department said this
may be the missing American
plane which Soviet Premier
Nikita Khrushchev said So
viet forces shot down Sunday
Having Difficulty
Department Press Officer
Lincoln While said the civil
ian pilot of a National Aero
nautics and Space Administra
tion high level weather recon-
nassunce plane operating in
the Lake Van area reported
that he was having "difficulty
with his oxygen equipment."
"It may be that this was
the missing plane," White
said. "It is entirely possible
that having a failure in the
oxygen equipment which
could result in the pilot losing
consciousness, the plane con
tinued on automatic pilot for
a considerable distance and
accidnntly violated Soviet air
space."
Ask for Information
White said the United States
is asking the Sovient govern
ment about the plane inci
dent, "with particular refer
ence to the fate of the pilot."
White said U. S. Ambas
sador Llewellyn E. Thomp
son was making the approach
to the Russians and that

The President returned to
the White House by helicop
ter.
Obviously, the Khrushchev
announcement and the Rus
sian leaders expression 01
"little hope" for the success
of the May 18 Paris summit
meeting figured prominently
in the Security Council delib
erations. Vice President Richard M.
Nixon, who clashed with
Khrushchev In their tamed
kitchen debate" In Moscow
last July, said the Soviet Pre
mier's tough speech "is not
unexpected."
Khrushchev's announcement
that Russia had shot down an
American plane brought chal
lenging questions for both
Khrushchev and the Elsen
hower administration from
congressional Democrats.
Prospects Said Grim
Senate Democratic Whip
Mike Mansfield (Mont.) told
the Senate that if the Rus
sians are going to "shoot first
and complain later, then in
deed the prospects for the
coming summit are grim."
But Mansfield also said the
administration needs to ex
plain what the American
plane was "doing so close to
the Soviet border at a time
like this If it was American." i
Chairman Styles Bridges ;
(N. H.) of the Senate GOP ;

Charleston, W.Va.-IUPU-Sens.
Hubert H. Humphrey and
John F. Kennedy left it to
West Virginia voters today to
judge who won their gentle
debate. Their soft exchanges
were expected to sway few
votes tn either direction in
this state's Democratic pres
idential primary next Tues
day. After Wednesday night's
hour-long appearance before
television cameras, both Dem
ocratic presidential contend
ers were back on the road
today. Kennedy was sched
uled to spend the day in the
Beckley coal mining territory
and the Charleston area while
Humphrey was in the north
ern part of the state touring
the Wheeling area of the
steelmaking panhandle.
Their debate Wednesday
night was the first face-to-face
meeting in their two state pri
mary contests-in Wisconsin
last month where Kennedy
was the victor and in the

1V tfeA
Humphrey in Soft
on Television Debate
month-long
campaign they
have been conducting here.
There were no fireworks.
To a question about the
religious issue in politics,
both reiterated their views
that a candidate's religion
should not be a factor. Ken
nedy, a Roman Catholic, said
he was confident that West
Virginia voters should heed
the constitutional provision
that there must be no religious
test for public office.
Kennedy's vote in this
overwhelmingly Prote s t a n t
state, however, will provide
major test of whether religi
ous bias still is a factor in the
choice of a president.
The candidates found them
selves in substantial agree
ment on almost every issue
raised except whether Hum
phrey has a chance to win
the presidential nomination.
Humphrey said he did and
Kennedy made it clear that
he disagreed.
Each made a short opening
statement and a rebuttal and
then answered questions
screened by the Charleston
Gazette from its readers.
There was no studio audience
to give hurrahs or bronx
cheers. '
Argument Arises
The argument about Hum
phrey as a serious contender
came when the Minnesota
senator was asked if he
thought he had any chance
of winning the nomination
even if he won the West Vir
gina primary. Humphrey re
plied emphatically that he had
that chance and that no candi
date had the nomination sew
ed up.
The front-running Kennedy,
who is in trouble in West
Virginia, commented that sup
porters of other Democratic
presidential possibilities were
backing Humphrey in this
state. Hence, he said, it must
be the judgment of those oth
er possible contenders that
Humphrey was not a major
candidate.
Humphrey retored that he,
too, was the victim of a "gang-

up" because Kennedy parti
sans had supported Sen.
Wayne L. Morse of Oregon
in Tuesday's District of Co
lumbia presidential primary,
which Humphrey won.
Favor Closing Loopholes
Kennedy and Humphrey
took divergent lines on tax
reduction. Humphrey said he
favored increasing the present
annual $600 personal income
tax exemption to $800 a year
and offsetting the revenue loss
by closing tax loopholes. Ken
nedy said he also favored clos
ing loopholes but that Con
gress had not agreed so far.
Meanwhile, he said, he could
not advocate new federal pro
grams for indigent iid and
defense and promise income
tax cuts at the same time.

Russian Shakeup
Viewed as Step for
Tightening Control
Washington - It'PC - U.S. of
ficials today viewed the pro
motion of Frol Koslov in the
Soviet hierarchy as a step to
ward making him Premier Ni
kita S. Khrushchev's eventual
successor.
Koslov. who has been first
deputy premier, would be in
an excellent position as secre
tary of the Communist Party's
Central Committee to succeed
Khrushchev should the pre
mier die or have to retire for
any reason.
American officials said
Khrushchev might have plac
ed Koslov in the key commit
tee post to keep a firm hand
on other members of the So
viet secretariat. Khrushchev
is known to have complete
trust in Koslov.
Seeks Tighter Control
The U.S. officials said the
Soviet shake-up appeared to
be another effort by Khru
shchev to tighten his control
of the government and inject
more vigor into the party lead
ership. It was noted that the
changes in the Kremlin high
command came at a time
when Khrushchev's position
has deteriorated somewhat
within the Soviet Union.
U.S. officials emphasized
that there is no real threat to
Khrushchev's leadership. But
they said he must be unhappy
about a growing split between
the people and the Commu
nist Party.
Unlike the days of terror
under Stalin, the Soviet popu
lace does not appear to be
paying any great attention
now to official Communist
propaganda.
Khrushchev's room for
maneuvering in the interna
tional field also has been nar
rowed to a degree and this is
believed to have affected his
domestic position to some ex
tent. He is under Increasing pres

sure from the uninese iteas
and East European satellites
to do something about the
Berlin and German issues.
But he has moved in the other
direction by promoting relax
ation of tensions with the
West.
American officials inter
preted the new shake-up as
indicating Khrushchev's de
sire to keep closer tabs on the
key points in the Soviet sys
tem as he prepares for the
May 16 summit conference
and President Elsenhower's
visit to Russia next month.
