OREGON Southern Coalition Still Under Way Despite Grumbling By ARNOLD SAWISLAK United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) - The political marriage of conveni ence known as the Republican southern Democratic coalition has not been put asunder, de spite some public grumbling by a member of the wedding. Reports suggesting there may be a crack in the intormai, oi partisan alliance of congression al conservatives arose from a speech last week by Sen. Rich ard B. Russell, D-Ga.

Thrifty Hits Dixie congressmen have had frequent occasion in the past to make common cause with Republicans to oppose liberal programs. The Georgia heaped ridicule on House Re publican Leader Charles A. Hal leek, Ind., for helping President Kennedy extract a compromise civil rights bill from the House Judiciary committee. In what could be construed as a veiled "turncoat" charge, Russell pictured Hallcck as "adorned in the leather shirt and tasselcd moccasins of the New Frontier." Deft Political Punch Was this notice to Halleck that the North-South honeymoon was over? Perhaps, but some observers interpreted it as strictly for the consumption of southern Democrats. Combining a familiar object of south ern distaste civil rights leg islation with a new and omi nous political threat the Re publican party it was a deft and probably elfcctive political one-two-punch. The threat posed to southern Democrats by the GOP was pointed up by an exultant tele gram sent Wednesday by Rep. Edward J. Gurney, R-Fla., to Florida state Rep. Thomas Slade, who had announced his switch from the Democratic to Republican parties. "More and more conservative southern Democrats are realiz ing the Republican party repre sents their principles better than the Democratic party," Gurney said. "I hope your move will motivate other Dem ocratic office holders in Flori da and the South to make this logical change to the Re publican ranks." Never Existed In any case, the Russell speech could not signal the end of Republican-southern Demo cratic cooperation on civil rights because it never really existed in that field. The coalition has operated successfully in opposition to many spending and social wel fare proposals but it has been the South against the field when civil rights was the issue. It is true that some conserva tive Republican senators have voted with the South against at tempts to shut oft debate, but so have some western Demo crats. When the showdown votes on civil rights were counted in 11)57 and I960, Republicans in both House and Senate were much closer to united support ol the bills than the Democrats In other fields, there is rea son to believe that the coalition actually is stronger today than it was two years ago. The hev- day of the North-South coalition was in the last years of the Ei senhower administration, when the conservatives stood fast against the efforts of congres sional Democrats to pass liber al programs exceeding the President's- requests. Federal aid to education and an in creased minimum wage were two proposals that the coalition stymied. Wallace Ponders Being Candidate In Two Primaries DALLAS (UPD-Gov. George Wallace of Alabama, puffing on a cigar and greeting everybody in sight, arrived in Dallas Sun day night and said he might Democrat ' run for the Democratic nomina- 'liin fnr Prncirinnt 111 thl inniflna and New Hampshire primaries. "I'm not thinking of running to help Barry Goldwater," Wal lace said, "but I'm not going to help the Kennedys either." "Anybody would be better than Kennedy," Wallace said. Excellent Reception Wallace said he was thinking about running in the northern primaries because of "the ex cellent reception" he had on his recent speaking trip. "They weren't just apprecia tivethey were enthusiastic," Wallace said. Wallace is scheduled to hold a press conference today and make a speech at a public af fairs club lunch. I think the Kennedys are the worst thing that has happened to the nation," he said, "and if I run, I intend to show the peo ple the truth." "We don't want anybody com ing in from the outside to tell us how to run our affairs." Wallace scoffed at foreign press criticism of racial inci dents in Alabama and Missis sippi, saying, "we shouldn't care what they think, they should care what we think." "If India gets rid of her un touchables," . Wallace said, "then maybe they can begin criticizing segregation. We can't just change our system of in dividual freedom for the sake of the Hottentots in Africa." Will Show Interference Wallace said a Dallas County (Selma, Ala.) grand jury inves tigating the use of a Justice Department car by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. to transport him from Birming ham to Selma "should expose the Justice Department for what it is." "They will show the world how the federal government is interfering in our local affairs," he said. He said he did not think any charges would arise out of the hearing unless "a Justice De partment official lies before the grand jury." Smartlv SDortivo!

Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF- iN THE WALL of a building near his residence, Mike " Nichols noticed a chalk inscription one morning that read "I LOVE GRILS." The next morning a line had been drawn through this dec laration and a new line printed below that read "I LOVE GIRLS." The third day that line had been crossed out, too, and a third line substituted in letters twice as large. It read, "WHAT ABOUT US GRILS?" Sir John M. Stow, K.C. M.G., the extremely popu lar governor of the island of Barbados in the British West Indies, tells of the moment, during; Winston Churchill's visit there, when a photographer for the local news paper, The Advocate, said respectfully, "I hope, Sir Winston, I'll have the privilege of snapping you again when- you celebrate your hundredth birthday." "No reason you shouldn't," replied Sir Winston, "if you Just take good care of yourself." Two of New York's newest and best-publicized hotels are "The Americana" and "The Summit," both operated by the Loew's Theaters Corporation. One executive at Loew's refers to the huge Americana as "the box the Summit came in." C 1963, by Bocuett Cart.
