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

House Democrats See
Committee Downfall
Over School Aid Bill
Kdltor's note: A vote against
srhuol aid legislation, taken be
hind closed doors by the House
rules committee Wednesday, is
likely to have a far reaching
impact In a developing struggle
between liberals and conserva
tives in Congress. 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.

at a dinner for Symington at Kansas City, Mo. An estimated
650 persons paid up to $250 a plate for the dinner and heard
Truman say that if Symington is nominated for President,
"he will have no difficulty in carrying a tremendous ma
jority of the electoral votes in the election in November."
