South African Parliament m To Name Malan's Successor PRETORIA, South Africa Wl The dominant Nationalist party faction in South Africa's Parlia ment assembled here today to Dame a successor to retiring Prime Minister Daniel Malan. It was a near certainty they would choose Johannes Gerhardus Strijdom, un compromising advocate of Repub lican status for this British Com monwealth country. Selection of the 61-year-old Strij dom as the party leader necessa ry prelude to his appointment as prime minister by Gov. Gen. E. G. Jansen could transform the poli tical situation, in the country plagued by tension between blacks and whites and between whites of British and Dutch descent. - Strijdom's only other serious ri val for the party leadership. Depu ty Prime Minister Kicolaas Chris tiaan Havenga, spread the word he would quit the government and politics if not elected. Others loyal to him and to Mal an. who backed Havenga in his re tirement announcement seven weeks ago, might eventually fol low their candidate out. of the party. The present party was formed in 1951 as a coalition of Malan's National party and Ka venga's Afrikaner party, both made up of descendants of the country's Dutch-born Boer settlers. This would bring the first serious split in Nationalist unity, unbroken since Malan led the two factions in taking power six years ago from the late Field Marshal Jan Chris tiaanS muis' United party. The struggle between Strijdom and Havenga was one of tactics and timing rather ttian other na tionalist aims. Strijdom is all for quickening the pace of the Nationalist march towards a christian national re public in South Africa. He is determined to cut the limited fran chise and political rights of the nation's 10 million nonwhites and to speed the government's "apar theid" program designed to sepa rate the country's various racial groups into tight geographic compartments. . Strijdom was minister of lands Rescuers Work To Free Miner ST. CLAIR, Pa. W Mine crews are working around the clock to remove tons of rock and earth cov ering Frank Pesavage at the bot tom of a 280-foot mine shaft near here. They said it would take sever-. al days. The 37-year-old father of two children was trapped yesterday by a rock slide. I Rescuers held little hope that he could be saved. Two other miners working with Pesavage scrambled to safety up the 80-degree slope as the rock slid into the shaft. in Malan's Cabinet. Havenga's faction also favors eventual republican status for the country and racial segregation, but generally advocates a slower ap proach to the fulfillment of these aims. Churchill Cheered By Multitudes. LONDON W Sir Winston Churchill turned 80 today and mil lions of Britons and admirers over seas celebrated the birthday an-. niversary as a persona! affair. Not since the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II had emotion surged so strong through the na tion. The day began with business of state. It was opening day for the new Parliament. Queen Elizabeth n was scheduled to read from the throne her traditional address to the government outlining the legislative program. After that a special ceremony for Churchill was scheduled at the Hall of Westminster with presenta tion of two gifts from Parliament a commemorative album and a portrait of the Prime Minister, A family party at the Prime Minister's official residence, 10 Downing Street, was the last event on the day's schedule. Two 90-pound birthday cakes were baked one for the Parlla ment party and the other for the family gathering.
