Algeria Moslems
Cast Ballots on
De Gaulle Plan
Paris - (UPD - Moslem vil
lagers, protected by heavily
armed French soldiers against
death threats from nationalist
rebels, started voting today
on President Charles de
Gaulle's plans to loosen Al
geria's ties to France.
Hundreds of thousands of
French soldiers were on the
alert for possible attempts by
either Moslem rebels or right
wing European settlers to dis
rupt the nationwide referen
dum with violence.
Fifteen French warships
with thousands of sailors and
marines were standing by at
the big naval base of Mers-el-Kebir.
Rebels Isiua Threat
The leadership of the Na
tional Liberation Front which
has been waging a six-year
war against the French for
independence, sent warnings
through the underground that
the first Moslem who voted
in the referendum "will have
his throat cut."
The rebels called on a 1 1
Moslems to boycott the refer
endum as a "fraud" and wait
for "final liberation."
On the other hand the 9
million Moslems in this un
settled land have been told
through speeches and pam
phlets from the French that
de Gaulle wants them to vote
"yes" in the referendum so
that he may bring them peace.
The French army was or
dered to encourage the Mos
lems to go to the polls and
to provide transportation for
them where necessary.
The voting' will be held in
tlie Algerian countryside to
day and Saturday. On Sunday
ballots will be cast in the big
cities of Algeria.'such as Al
giers and Oran, and through
out mainland France.
If de Gaulle gets a "yes"
vote he will have popular sup
port for his plans to grant
more home rule to the Al
gerians immediately and pre
pare for an ultimate referen
dum in which Algerians will
be allowed to decide their
own future - continued inte
gration with France, a looser
alliance or independence.
Nixon Officially
Proclaims Kennedy
Election Winner
Washington - (UPD - John F,
Kennedy's election as Presi
dent was made official today
by the man he defeated for
the nation s highest office.
The presidential electoral
votes were counted at a joint
session of the House and Sen
ate and it was Richard M.
Nixon's job as vice president
to announce the results.
It marked the first time in
100 years that the man who
ran second in a presidential
election has been required to
make the official announce
ment of the outcome.
Lincoln Proclaimed
Not since Feb. 13, 1861, has
a defeated presidential candi
date officiated at such a cere
mony. On that day Vice Presi
dent John C. Breckinridge
proclaimed Abraham Lincoln
the winner in a four-man race.
Lincoln got 180 of the 303
electoral votes in the 1860
election and Breckinridge fin
ished second with 72. Like
Kennedy, Lincoln failed to
get a majority of the popular
vote.
On . the basis of popular
votes the Kennedy-Nixon race
was one of the closest in his
tory and right up to the 11th
hour it was uncertain wheth
er the final count would give
Kennedy 300 or 303 of the
537 electoral votes.
Hawaii initially certified
Nixon as the winner of its
three electoral votes but then
sent Washington a corrected
certificate listing Kennedy as
the winner.
, On the basis of the correct
ed result in Hawaii, the tally
was: .
For Kennedy and his running-mate,
Lyndon B. John
son, 303 votes; for Nixon and
his running-mate, Henry Cab
ot Lodge, 219 votes; for Sen.
Harry Flood Byrd of Virginia,
15 votes for president with
14 for Sen. Strom Thurmond
as vice president and one vice
presidential ballot for Sen.
Harry Goldwater (R-Ariz.).
Rayburn Battles
To Beat Challenge
To Powerf Prestige
Washington - (UPII - Speaker
Sam Rayburn observed his
79th birthday today, battling
behind the scenes to defeat a
challenge to his congressional
power and prestige.
The challenge came from an
other old-timer - courtly Rep.
Howard W. Smith, 77, a south
ern gentleman of the old
school who until a few years
ago wore wing collars and a
string tie.
The outcome of the struggle
could have quite a bit to do
with how successful President
elect John F. Kennedy is in
getting liberal legislation
through the 87th Congress.
Rayburn, whose bald head
is his trade-mark, has been the
No. 1 Democrat in the house
for 20 of the 48 years he has
been a member. He has served
longer in the House and longer
as speaker than any man in
history.
Heads Rules Committee
Smith is the leader of con
servative Southern Democrats
and chairman of the powerful
House Rules Committee which
serves as the legislative traffic
control center for the house.
He has been in Congress for
30 years and is recognized as
Its wiliest tactician.
The two quiet - spoken, but
strong - willed men for five
days have been locked in a
struggle for personal control
of the Rules Committee. It has
the power to block controver
sial House bills.
In recent years the commit
tee has been controlled by a
coalition of ultra-conservative
Republicans and southern
Democrats headed by Smith.
With the advent of the Ken
nedy administration, Rayburn
is determined to break - and
Smith to perpetuate -the
coalition's power to block leg
islation. Characteristically, t h I s behind-the-scenes
struggle has
been conducted without public
statements from either of the
two men who are rated the
toughest and shrewdest bat
tlers In Congress. The "war of
nerves" began when Smith
last Sunday rejected a Ray
burn proposal that would have
enlarged the committee to give
Rayburn control.
Rayburn quietly has passed
the word thjt if necessary to
achieve his objective, he will
lead a fight to purge Rep. Wil
liam M. Colmcr (D Miss.) from
the committee and replace
him with a Rayburn Democrat.
The excuse for purging Col
mcr would be that he bolted
the national party ticket in the
November election.
