Morty U IOC T'l I DONT66EANY WHY I 'Bill Of Rights1 Amendment Losing Southern Support WASHfNGTON (AP) A "bill of rights" amendment written into the Kennedy labor regulation bill appeared today to be losing some of its Southern support. Sen. John Stennis ID-Miss) told a newsman he was having second thoughts on the amendment and that he believed some of his Southern colleagues were, too. The amendment, by Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark), was adopted 47-46 Wednesday, largely on the votes of Republicans and Southern Democrats. A host of other amendment pro posals awaited action as the sena tors moved into what most hoped would be the final day of debate on the hotly disputed measure. Remaining to be settled are three major issues: 1. Whether to write in a provi sion strengthening the Taft-Hartley law sections aimed at second ary boycotts. 2. Whether to insert, a provision sharply limiting organizational picketing. 3. Whether to try to modify or knock out the bill of rights amend ment. The Senate acted on 18 amend ments in an 11-hour session Thurs day. One of those adopted would for bid a railroad, trucker or other interstate common carrier from agreeing with his employe not to haul products of another firm in volved in a ' labor dispute. The Teamsters Union has insisted on Space Scientists' Probes Likened To Darwin Idea PHILADELPHIA (AP) Space scientists were likened today to the men who delved into the my steries of time and found the earth older than they dreamed. What the time detectives learned bolstered Charles Darwin's theor ies of human evolution. -What the space adventures are doing will fall into place as a major part of. the scientific intel lectual panorama which began be fore Darwin, and of which he was such a dramatic figure. Links in this chain of evolution ary pioneering were traced in speeches and interviews by many of the scholars attending the American Philosophical Society's annual meeting. This year the so ciety is observing the 100th anni versary of the publication of Dar win's greatest work "The Origin of Species." , In the early 19th century, it was related, books on geology were gobbled up as books on space travel are today. Geology gave Darwin the frame and time pat tern for his work. But physicists calculated the earth could be only a few million years old. This was one of the main threats to Darwin's theor ies. It raised the question whether all the changes ascertained by Darwin could have taken place in such a relatively short time. Although the question had not become a public issue, Darwin was worried. Some of his worries are reflected in the revisions he made from edition lo edition of his books. With the discovery of radioactiv ity, however, it was learned that the universe did not lose its heat a3 fast as had been thought. Phy sicists took this as proof of a greater antiquity of life.

Kennedy, chief sponsor of the bill, said he thought that amendment would reduce the demand for a ban on other kinds of boycott. But McClellan said he would seek one. Stennis made his comments about the bill of rights amend inent after a huddle of Southern ers with Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (O-Tex). He said he believed some South erners did' not understand the full implications of the amendment, He said some of its provisions- including one to give the secre tary of labor broad authority to seek court injunctions have been compared with those in the 1957 civil rights bill, which Southerners fought bitterly. Kennedy told newsmen he did not know what effort - might be made to get the bill of rights amendment out of the bill. He said he remained strongly op posed to it as an unwarranted and improper interference with union operations. The amendment seeks to guar antee seven rights to union mem bers, among them freedom of speech and assembly. The secre tary of labor could enforce it with court injunctions. The AFL-CIO attacked the amendment, -declaring it would "largely destroy the. historic con cept of a union as a voluntary association." mitted they had been wrong about the shorter time range. The shift opened up both past and future inexhaustibly. "Darwin was pretty sure the age of the earth was greater than the physicists had guessed," said Dr. Loren Eiseley, author of "Dar-. win's Century" and one of the leading authorities on the famed naturalist. "He was ahead of his time. He realized that impres sions of stability were due soley to our own short life. span. "Now we are tackling the won ders of space, another phase of the broad picture of man's evolu tion, physically and mentally. Cer tainly adaptability to new environ ments is part of the Darwinian story."

V. Maxwell, Siskiyou County farm ad viser, that should California fail to renew the water rights on the Klamath, the result would be that the Los Angeles Metropolitan Wa ter District would put in filings immediately after t h e California state rights expire on October 1. Maxwell stressed the urgency of supporting a bill, authored by As semblywoman Pauline Davis, to allow the establishment of county wide water districts in the seven counties she represents. According to Maxwell's explana tion to the board members, the rights under the state water plan to a portion of the Klamath River waters must be renewed every four years by the Legislature, and that a heavy Southern California majority could fail to do so, there for leaving the waters open to fil ings by Southern California. The bill, as authored by As semblywoman Davis, Maxwell stat ed, would allow the boards of su pervisors to halt this by establish ing the county - wide districts, should the necessity arise. The farm adviser also disclosed that Assemblywoman Davis had deleted from her bill a provision for transmission and distribution of electric power, that such provisions generally received opposition from utilities in Sacramento. The supervisors had previously heard objections to any such agen cy from officials representing the Tulelake and Butte Valley Irriga tion districts, to which Supervisor Don Avery expressed himself stat ing that he felt the two districts displayed a poor attitude, calling attention to the fact that the coun ty had provided $8,000 in matching funds for water engineering studies in Butte Valley.
