(UPI Telcphoto) Bomb in Venezuela Injures President Caracas, Venezuela - (DPI) President Romulo Betancourt was injured and a top-ranking Venezuelan officer was killed today in an apparent as sassination attempl against the President. Belancourt's naval aide, Capt. Lopez Parra, was killed by a bomb blast and Interior Defense Minister Gen. Jose Lopez Henriquez and his wife were seriously injured. Col. Armas Perez, head of Belancourt's armed guard, also was injured. Car Heavily Damaged First reports conflicted on where the bomb came from. Radio newsmen said it was thrown at a line of official cars in which the government men were riding. Other sources said it was planted in the defense minister's vehicle. The explosion came as the caravan turned into Avenida de los Procercs in downtown Caracas. Betancourt's car was heav ily damaged. Word of the assassination attempt spread like wildfire. The army rushed tank and troop reinforcements to the presidential palace, apparent ly fearing the attack was a prelude to a revolutionary coup. The assassin or assassins struck as the Betancourt en tourage was enroute to Army Day ceremonies. The explosion came just as the cars were passing a soda fountain. The site was only a few blocks from the reviewing stand. Betancourt was taken to the University City clinic for emergency treatment. First reports said he was only slightly burned Police said preliminary in vestigation indicated the bomb had been hidden in the car just ahead of Betancourt's in the official caravan. Motorized police detach ments raced through city streets in an apparent round up of known anti-government elements. Applegale, Rogue Rivers Said Safe Both the Applegate and Rogue rivers are safe for swimmng, Orie Moore, coun ty sanitarian, said Thursday. Some reports have been re ceived that the two rivers were polluted and not safe for swimming, he said. . He added that the two riv ers are safe at their present flow, but this condition may change later in the season when irrigation pulls water from the streams. . Moore stressed , that shim ming in irrigation ditches and small streams, especially Bear, Griffin and Jackson creeks, where the main flow is from irrigation runoff, is not safe. ; He explained that this run off water in many cases comes from barnyards and other pol luted areas. . : - I Trenton, N.J. -IDl'll - An 18- month-old g i r 1' suffocated Thursday when a deflated toy balloon became lodged in her mouth.

The follow In g dispatch explains why Democratic liberals believe It may have a far-reaching effect on their behalf in the next Congress. By VINCENT J. BURKE Washington (DPI) Liberal House Democrats claimed to day that their conservative foes may at last have cut their own throats. The liberals have been talking hopefully for some lime of winning greater pow er in the next Congress. Their goal is to wrest control of the powerful House rules commit tee from a bipartisan coali tion of Republican and south ern Democratic conservatives who have dominated it almost all of the last 24 years. Exercising its vast powers, the committee Wednesday stunned Democratic liberals by voting to scuttle a program of federal grants to help build schools. The legislation had won approval in both House and Senate, in differing forms. But the committee refused 7 to 5 to permit Senate-House negotiation of a compromise capable of winning final con gressional approval. REDS WARN PAKISTAN Moscow IUPD - The Soviet Union has sent Pakistan a sec ond warning that counter blows would be struck at air bases used for "provocative" flights over Soviet territory, the Soviet news agency Tass reported Thursday night. MAMIE'S AUNT DIES Boone, Iowa IUPD - Mrs. Car olyn P. Carlson, 66, an aunt of Mrs. Mamie Eisenhower, died Thursday. Backers of Medical Aid to Aged Expect Broad Senate Plan Washington (UPD Backers of far-reaching government medical aid to the aged were confident today the senate would sharply change and broaden a modest house-passed plan. Chairman Harry F. B y r d (D-Va.) tentatively scheduled an afternoon meeting of his senate finance committee to map strategy and make a brief survey of the four competing plans pending before the panel. Byrd said he was "playing it by ear" and declined to predict what version finally would emerge. But he said there was a "tremendous amount of pressure" for con gress to enact some medical program at this election-year session. Provide Matching Grants The bill which the house ap proved 380-21) Thursday would provide federal matching grants to states that agreed to expand public assistance ben efits to include medical care for needy persons over 65 who j were not poor enough to be on relief. It would help be-1 tweon 500,000 and one million 1 old folks. I A spokesman said Son. Pat I McNamnra (D Mich.) would' seek to amend the house bill : to bring it more in line with his labor-backed proposal to : expand social security bene-' fits to pay most medical bills of about 12 million persons over 65. Calls Measure 'Gesture' Son. John F. Kennedy (D- j Mass.) said there was a "dem- j onstratcd need" for something like the McNamara bill, of which he is a co-sponsor. Ken nedy said the house bill was little more than a "gesture" toward helping the needy el derly. The senate also has under consideration an administra tion medical care plan and a bill sponsored by eight Re publicans, led by Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R-N. Y.). The administration propos al, assailed by opponents as a "patchwork, unworkable, cumbersome plan," would set up a voluntary federal-state subsidy program of medical aid to about 12 million oldsters. Unless the committee re verses itself, school-aid legis lation is dead for this year. "And," predicted a key Demo crat, "so is the long reign of the conservatives over the rules committee.' Liberals Hopeful Democratc liberals general ly agreed that if the rules committee refuses to revive the school bill this year, it will be much easier for their side to win its planned fight next January to liberalize the committee. The committee controls the normal flow of legislation to the House floor. When the conservatives who control it stand united against any con troversial bill, they usually can block its passage. The liberals early this year organized into an effective bloc known as the Democratic study group. These northern and western Democrats have pushed through the House a good share of their "mini mum" legislative proposals this year only because they managed on several occasions to by-pass the rules commit tee. They had to use cumber some parliamentary tactics. The committee tried un successfully to block House passage of bills to help eco nomically depressed areas and to raise pay of federal workers. It delayed action on the civil rights bill. It blocked a so-called "fair trade" bill sought by independent drug gists and jewelers, and legis lation to continue federal out lays to provide library serv ices in rural areas. The Democratic liberals contend that the blockade of the school bill "is the straw that breaks the camel's back." Liberalization of the rules committee could make the next Congress less conserva tive than the present one even if liberal Democrats lose some of the House seats they now hold to Republicans in next November's election. The liberals' hope of vic tory is based on their assump tion the 1960 election will put a Democrat in the White House and keep the House under Democratic control by a wide margin. The Demo crats now control it 280 to 152. The liberals' strategy hinges on controlling the pre-session caucus of House Democrats in a show-down fight with the conservative wing of the party, mostly southern. Rep. Lee Metcalf (Mont.), chairman of the study group, says liberal Democrats prob ably will insist that their party's members of the rules committee be selected next January by a direct vote of the caucus. Selection now is delegated to the Democratic committee on committees. Direct election by the cau cus could imperil the status of two conservative Demo crats, Rules chairman Howard W. Smith (Va.), and Rep. Wil liam M. Colmer (Miss.). These two have frequently joined with the committee's four Re publican members to block on 6-6 tie votes the legislation sought by the liberals. Some liberals think the mere threat of ousting Colmer or Smith would prod Speaker Sam Rayburn (D-Texas), into adopting alternative changes that would accomplish the same objective. yVO 4 - H''h!
