Editor's note: This U the itcond

By HUGH WATERFIELD
London (UPD - Dr. Kwame
Nkrumah, prime minister of
Ghana, said recently his gov
ernvent will ask the United
Nations to tighten up its pro
cedure on the admission of
new members.
Nkrumah said former colo
nial territories, emerging to
independence, are "loo often
admitted to the United Na
tions as nothing more than
satellites, depending on their
former colonial masters, who
can order them how to vote."
The Ghana leader made
this declaration on the same
day that four more African
members of the French com
munity - the Ivory Coast, Up
per Volla, Dahomey and the
Niger Republic - announced
their intention of demanding
complete independence.
His statement came earlier
this month shortly after the
U. N. Security Council had
recommended the admission
as members of two French
administered trust territories
- Cameroon and Togo.
Can Expect Divisions
The importance of the dec
laration lies less In the pro
posal itself, which even some
of Nkrumah's slaunchcst sup
porters here regard as unreal
istic, than in the light it
throws on the divisions which
can be exneclcd between Af
rican and Afro-Asian mem
bers of the U.N.
By the end of this year,
African states may account
for 22 and the Afro-Asian
bloc for 32 of a total U. N.
membership of 95.
African nationalists point
ed to the frequent accusations
of both sides in the cold war
that their opponents are "sat
ellites" cither of the Soviet
Union or the United Slates.
Among nations alleged to
be dictating policy to ex-colonial
"satellites," Nkrumah
named Great Britain, France
and Belgium.
Nkrumah's statement Indi
cated to African nationalists
in London that on major
world questions he expects a
division among African mem
bers of the U. N. between

Ism and those who can be ex
pected to support the West
Two Are Neutrals
At present, there are only
two neutralist African states

Observers felt that broad

ed only a small part, if any,
in motivating Nkrumah s dec

general Ignorance and indif

Some leading African poli

even the issue of Communism

A typical comment is: "The

Covering Political Conventions
Huge Task
Washington - (UPD - The real
news of a political convention
often breaks far behind the
razzle-dazzle In the conven
tion hall Itself.
Because of this fact, cover
age of major party conven
tions - like those in July in
Los Angeles and Chicago - is
one of the most complicated
and difficult tasks which
newspapers and wire services
face.
To do the Job properly re
quires months of planning,
the Installation of elaborate
communications facilities, and
- above all - a large staff of
experienced newspaper men
who've been through all this
before and know where and
what to watch.
Big Staff
United Press International,
for example, will mobilize a
staff of more than 100 report
e r s, editors, photographers
and technicians in Los Ange
les to cover the Democratic
Convention beginning July 11
and In Chicago for the Re
publican National Convention
starting July 28. Most of them
will be veteran of many pre
vious conventions.
If you watch the convention
sessions on television, you'll
be able to see some of them
at work In the press box, di
rectly alongside the speakers'
rostrum! You may spot others
mingling with the delegates
on the floor, and sending re
ports to the press box by
walkie-talkie radio. .. '
But there will be many
more whom you can't see.
They will be watching the
smoke-filled rooms - which,
Incidentally, are no fiction.
They will be keeping round-the-clock
vigils on candidates
and their headquarters, on
key delegations and king
makers. They will be writing
and editing and transmitting
millions of words of news
copy, and processing thou
sands of pictures, in the back
stage workrooms which are
the nerve centers of conven
tion coverage.
Wilson To Write
The shock troops of the UPI
news corps will be 31 mem
bers of the Washington Bu
reau, with more than 600
years of collective experience
in handling political news.
Among them will be Lyle C.
Wilson, UPI vice president
and Washington manager,
who will write daily inter
pretive columns; Raymond
Lahr, chief political writer;
William Thels, chief of the
Senate staff; Frank Eleazer,
chief of the House staff; and
Merrlman Smith, White House
reporter.
More than a dozen other
reporters from all parts of the
country - each a specialist In
the politics of his particular
area - will be on hand to keep
In intimate touch with pivotal
state delegations. Past exper
ience Indicates that these re
gional experts are very likely
to turn up the unexpected,
crucial break of the conven
tion. Additional Manpower
UPI's West Coast bureaus,
and particularly the beleag
uered "host bureau" at Los
Angeles, will pour in addi
tional manpower. The same
will be true at Chicago.
In addition to the legion of
"legmen," as reporters are
known in their trade, the con
vention staff will Include a
large number of seasoned
news photographers like
Frank Cancellare and Pulitzer
Prize-winner Andrew Lopez;
feature writers like Dick
West, who will continue his
widely used "Lighter Side"
column from the conventions;
top rewrite men like Joseph
L. Myler and Robert Bark

Haglund felt that the sardine is ill-equipped
to be a symbol of U.S. greatness. He said
that the clam Is hard shelled and tight-lipped,
a lesson which he said could be used
by our statesman.
(UPI Telephoto)
for Wire
News is a highly perishable
commodity and once gathered
it must be delivered fast to
newspapers, broadcasting sta
tions and the ultimate con
sumer - you. To insure swift
transmission of convention
news, UPI will have an elab
orate communications net
work. It begins with walkie-talkie
radios carried by reporters,
and special open - line tele
phones installed at key points
in the convention halls and at
hotel headquarters all over
both convention cities.
These feed into workrooms
which actually are temporary
UPI bureaus - one backstage
at the convention hall, and
the other in the main head
quarters' hotel. Both of these
bureaus will file dispatches

directly onto the UPI's double
trunk transcontinental news
wires. A number of special
overflow wires also will be
cut into these bureaus to
transmit regional news and
features. The main Telephoto
and radio news wires also
will be tied in to the con
vention bureaus for direct
transmission.
Logistical Planning
Preparing for convention
coverage Involves logistical
planning comparable to that
which an army must under
take before going into battle.
Every detail - from laying in
a supply of paper clips to pick
ing the staff - must be work
ed out in advance. There are
hotel rooms to be found,
plane and train reservations
to be made, wire circuits to
be laid out, workrooms to be
rented and furnished, and a
dozen arrangements commit
tees to be wrangled with.
Julius Frandsen. UPI Wash-
ington news editor, who will
be in charge of the convention
news staff, has been at work
on these plans and prepara
tions since last fall, along with
C. Edmonds Allen, director
of special services; Henry
Rleger, Los Angeles bureau
manager, and Gene Gillette,
Central Division news man
ager at Chicago.
Executive supervision o f
the entire convention oper
ations will be in the hand of
UPI President Frank H.
Bartholomew; Earl J. John
son, eidtor; and Roger Tatar
Ian, managing editor.
The photographic staff will
be under direction of Frank
Tremaine, general newsplc
tures manager, and Harold
Blumenfeld. executive editor.
Radio Also Served
A wire service serves broad
casting stations as well as
newspapers. The Radio Divis
ion of UPI will be represented
at the conventions by a spec
ial sta or tts own. headed
by Washington commentator
George Marder.
United Press Movietone will.
have seven camera crews at
each convention, plus a staff
of writers, reporters with
cameras and sound technic
ians with equipment ranging
from tiny tape recorders to
remote equipment for record
ing sound at a distance. A
daily video circuit of at least
one hour will be operated na
tionwide to service convention
film to clients.
There also will be a special
UPI convention wire - usual
ly called a "ticker service" -
which will carry the latest
bulletins to a host of people
who are involved in the con
vention themselves. Among
the subscribers to this service
are the headquarters of po
litical candidates and the con
vention bureau of newspapers
and broadcasters.
Not even this long report
exhausts the list of specialists
who are necessary to a smooth
working convention news
team. Among the numerous
backstage technicians, lor ex
ample, will be professional
computer operators armed
with high speed Smlth-Cor-ona-Marchant
electronic tab
ulating devices. They can
keep simultaneous running
totals for dozen candidates
on roll call votes, and are so
accurate that the official con
vention tally clerks have
sometimes turned to UPI to
help them straighten out their
own records after a frantic
spate of vote-switching on the
floor.

Road Oiling Causes
Restricted Traffic
Yreka - Traffic between
Callahan and Cecllvllle will
be restricted during the next
several week ends due to oil
ing operations, James R.
Pratley, Klamath National
forest engineer, has an
nounced. About 20 miles of the road
will be subject to traffic con
trol for light automotive ve
hicles and closed entirely on
Saturday and Sunday for
truck and trailer combina
tions in o r de r to preclude
dusting, he added.
This precaution, he said, Is
taken to permit the safest pos
sible application and absorp
tion of an oil coat, as well as
to avoid excessive spattering
of oil on vehicles. The restric
tion will apply for the week
ends of July 4, 9, and 16 and
possibly the weekend of July
23. .
According to the forest
service, this is one of the
longest such projects yet un
dertaken in this region using
specially formulated dust
abatement oil to facilitate
maintenance of the "high
standard" timber access road

Ike's Aversion
that escaped notice at the
time
Among them was the Presi
dent's aversion to wearing
flowers. He knows that a
floral garland around the
neck is a commonly accepted
form of greeting in the East
but he can't help feeling fun
ny about it.
Wearing the traditional let
is as customary in Hawaii,
for example, as wearing a
necktie in New York. When
the President arrived in Hon
olulu, the pretty wife of Gov.
William F. Qulnn draped the
chief executive in lei of large
red flowers and planted a big
kiss on his check. He blushed
hotter than the Hawaiian mid
day sun.
New Lets Added
Then, on his last night in
Hawaii, the Qulnns entertain
ed the President as a recep
tion. He got through the door
unscathed, but the first group
of women he encountered
placed a big lei of white glner
blossoms over his head. As
the President moved around
the room, other Hawailans ad
ded new leis until finally the
President's neckline disap
peared and little was visible
above the flowers but nis
nose and sunburned forehead.
As soon as he could grace
fully do it, the President
shucked the flowers before
leaving the party.
When he was in Manila, he
was told the proper form of
evening attire was a barong
tagolog, an extremely thin,
finely embroidered white
shirt worn with the tails out.
Told that his host, President
Carlos P. Garcia, was wear
ing a barong to dinner, the
President self-consciously did
likewise, but he seemed morti
iled when photographers be
gan shooting his picture in
the shirt.
Barbara Eisenhower had a
good time on the trip, par
ticularly in Hawaii when she
and her husband, Lt. Col
John S. Eisenhower, had i
good bit' of free time and
were not burdened with cere
monial engagements.
At one party on Oahu, the
main island of the Hawaiian

An attentive lady spoke up
