Senator Charges Pressure Attempt On Civil Riahts WASHINGTON (UPI) - Sen Norris Cotton, R-N.H., charged today that the Kennedy admin istration inserted the controver sial public accommodations sec tion in its civil rights package merely to pressure southern legislators into accepting other sections of the bill. Cotton said the administra tion does not really expect Con gress to pass the measure, which would outlaw discrimina tion in restaurants, hotels, lunch counters, motels and other public facilities. He said the law "would be a monstros ity and impossible to en force." Kennedy Wins Support Kennedy won major support in his drive to soften the bill Wednesday, despite cries of "sellout" from Negro civil rights leaders. As drafted by a judiciary subcommittee the bill is considerably stronger than the administration proposed. The voting rights section of the subcommittee's bill would cover all municipal, state and federal elections, while the ad ministration's proposal would cover only federal elections. Two amendments are pend ing before the committee. One, submitted by Rep. William M. Tuck, D-Va., would throw out the whole section; the other, by Rep. Roland Libonati, D - 111., would restore coverage to fed eral elections only.

Carfano was a top figure in the underworld when he was gunned down along with a blonde companion, Janice Drake.

OPEN AN ACCOUNT TODAY While Kennedy did not veto the subcommittee's proposal, he was represented as leaning toward the administration's original federal elections only approach.

Next to him sat a young professor whose liberal views had been widely aired that year. The old judge rasped," "Well, Professor, I sup pose you've been teaching these defenseless students of yours that the graduates of our time are just a bunch of pathetic, out-of-step, old fuddy-duddies." "Not at all," smiled the professor.
