Mollet Turns
Back On Reds
PARIS 1st Socialist Guy Mollet
appeared turning his back on the
Communists today in hopes of win
ning Catholic support for his bid
to become France's first Socialist
premier since 1947.
He prepared to go before the
National Assembly with a com
pact Cabinet list of 13 ministers
"and a policy statement threshed
out over Uie weekend with Pierre
Mendcs-France and other partners
in his Republican Front.
The complexion of the Cabinet
and the reported Mollet platform
appeared designed to woo support
of the MRP (Popular Republican
Movement) as a substitute for
Communist backing. The slightly
left of center Catholic group Is
the French equivalent of a Chris
tian Democrat party.
Mollet's platform was said to
stress both France's ties to the
Atlantic Alliance and the new
drive for West European unifica
tion. This, plus the presence of
several supporters of European
unity in the Cabinet, would make
it difficult for the Communists to
vote for Mollet. MRP lenders arc
among the chief French partici
pants in the European unity move
ment.

Kekaulike Set
For Auction
SAN FRANCISCO (UP) Prin
cess Kekaulike Kawananakoa,
lithesome blonde granddaughter of
Prince David of the Hawaiian
royal family, arrived at Inter
national Airport from Honolulu to
day en route to Red Bluff where
she will be a guest auctioneer of
a prize bull.
The auction at Red Bluff Is an
annual event for the benefit of the
March of Dimes and Is held in
connection with Red, Bluff's annual
bull sale this week. Princess
Kekaulike will share honors as a
guest auctioneer with Hllo Hattle,
whose troupe of entertainers are
on the Red Bluff program.
The princess, who has paid all
her own expenses on the trip to
the mainland, arrived alone on a
United Air Lines plane yesterday.
She was met at the airport by
C. L. Garrison. San Mateo, presi
dent of the California Beef Indus
try council and a director of the
California Cattlemen's Association.
"I know absolutely nothing about
the duties of an auctioneer," the
princess confessed on her arrival,
"but I'm certainly looking forward
with excitement to the experi
ence." Baldock Asks
Repair Money
SALEM, Ore., (UP) State
Highway Engineer R. H. Baldock
said yesterday he was applying to
the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads
for $600,000 in emergency relief
funds to repair highways damaged
by the recent floods In Oregon.
In addition, he said, he will also
apply for slightly more than $1
million in federal emergency relief
lunds to be used in reconstructing
nine sections of roads and raising
the level of such roadways to a
point above the 1955 flood level.
Authority to make the request
for the federal emergency funds
was granted by the Highway Com
mission at its Portland meeting
last week.
In a survey made by state high
way engineers it was found that
flood damage in 124 locations in
Oregon would require an expendi
ture of $185,200 to make necessary
repairs. Baldock said it would be
impractical to request federal aid
for these small projects. The state
will bear this cost.
The nine projects Baldock has
recommended for reconstruction to
bring alignment above the present
flood level are in Coos, Josephine
and Jackson counties.

Transit Strike
Laws Slated
BALTIMORE Ml Gov. Theodore
R. McKeldin has announced he
will propose "remedial legislation"
if necessary, In an attempt to end
the strike against the Baltimore
Transit Co.
The strike went Into Its second
day today with commuters riding
to work In car pools and taxis,
or on foot.
In a letter to Mayor Thomas
D'Alesandro last night that sound
ed like an ultimatum, the gover
nor said: "It is my opinion that
the time has arrived for the para
mount rights of the public to be
asserted ..."
McKeldin proposed a' 'meeting
with the mayor and both disputing
sides in an effort to convince them
of the "necessity of restoring serv
ice to our public." If that fails, he
said, he would propose remedial
legislation at the State Legislature
convening Wednesday, or "any
other action that I shall feel
obliged to take."
Other moves were already afoot
to use legislative weapons to deal
with the strike which affects some
209.000 daily riders. It was re
ported that a bill seeking to com
pel arbitration of labor disputes
involving public utilities in the
state was in the preliminary draft
ing stages.
In a City Council meeting last
night resolutions were being
readied to ask the public service
Commission to require arbitration
of the dispute and to Investigate
the possibility of revoking the com
pany's franchise. A strike against
the company in 1952 lasted 19 days.
The Amalgamated Assn. of
Street Electric Railway and Motor
Coach Employes, representing 2.-1
000 drivers and maintenance work-
ers, origine.lly asked for a 25-cent
increase. Base hourly pay is si.ao.
Tho union also asked for im-j
proved vacation and pension bene
fits and a 40-hour Instead of 42 '2
hour week.
The company did not make a
public counteroffer, and has re
jected union proposals to submit
the differences to arbitration.
