Daley's high powered po. litical machine was geared for another test of its strength today when voters elect a mayor for the nation s second largest city, Daley, seeking a third term as head of the city, was opposed by Benjamin S. Adamowski, a Demo crat turned Republican who as state's attorney charged vote fraud in Cook County during the Iflfio presidential election. Both camps forecast victory. Mont political observers predictod a lethargic turnout about only one million of the city's 1,718,760 registered voters despite 80-de- gi ee temperature and sunny skies An Adamowski win would rank as one of the biggest political upsets since Harry S.

Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield and GOP Leader Ever ett Dirksen, 111., both predicted the vote, expected Wednesday, would be close. Administration supporters were working hard to line up votes for the bill, the first of the session that has strong White House back ing. Republicans set up a conference to work out a policy on the meas ure. Dirksen derided it as a "toe in the door" that would lead even tually to spending billions of dol lars. The bill would give grants and other assistance for the develop ment of rush-hour mass trans portation systems in urban areas. The grants would be limited to $500 million over three years.

Moin TU 4-llft NEWS COMMENTARY' - ',: $400 Million Gali On Promise WASHINGTON lUPIl - The Kennedy administration, with its fingers crossed, is undertaking another effort to help Brazil straighten out its chaotic financial and economic affairs. The outcome could prove crit ical for the Alliance for Progress, which is based on the principle of helping only those who help themselves. Brazil has promised to mend its ways in return for the new U. S. assistance. President Kennedys decision to advance Brazil another $400 mil lion was an admitted gamble. But it was a gamble administration officials felt had to be taken to prevent economic collapse and possible revolution in South Americas biggest country. Some Strings Attached This time the United States which has provided Brazil with $1.7 billion in aid since World War II without detecting any great results, has tied some strings to its assistance. It also has made it clear that Washing ton feels President .loao Goulart would do well to worry more about Communist infiltration of his government. The new Brazilian aid agree. ment, signed last week, has dis turbed some congressmen. Ad ministration officials admit to some doubt whether Brazil can make good on her promises. The problems facing this coun try of 71 million people are gi gantic. Brazils external debt now stands at $2.2 billion, with the United States the chief creditor. Repeated infusions of U. S. aid and postponement of debt pay ments have failed to halt economic deterioration, despite the paradoxical fact that Brazils rate of industrial growth 6 per cent annually is the highest in the hemisphere. Living Costs .lump The Brazilian government has 350,000 people on the payroll, and my administration that tries to educe this swollen figure courts disaster at the polls. The cost of iving in the country is estimated to have risen 52 per cent in the past year. The cruzeiro, once worth 100 to the dollar, has soared to more than 600 to the dollar. Director David Bell of the Agency for International Develop ment said the Kennedy adminis tration was helping Brazil again despite the dismal record of the past, because' "we have been tie mendously impressed by i series of promises that country has made to reform various pol icies. Another reason is that the Mt. Ashland Bid Offered MEDFORD (UPI)-Mt. Ashland' Ski Corp., Ashland, was the lone bidder Monday afternoon for the right to develop a lodge and ski facilities near the summit of Mt. Ashland in the Siskiyou Moun tains, just north of the California border. The corporation of local skiing enthusiasts and businessmen of fered the U.S. Forest Service l'i per cent of the gross annual re ceipts, the minimum acceptable to the forest service. Decision on the bid is expected Thursday, according to Ralph Wiese, recreation officer for tlie Rogue River National Forest, as the regional office in Portland. The Forest Service hopes to ad vertise for bids for construction of a road in from Highway 99 at the Siskiyou summit after a con tract is approved. "Poor management is the only thing which could keep Mt. Ash land from being a big success," Wiese said. "I just don't see how it could miss otherwise. It already has a captive population of 100,000 people." The mangosteen, a tree native to the East Indies, cannot be grown anywhere in the United States.

By Brazil United States has been startled by the growth of Communist strength in Brazil, particularly in the poverty-stricken section of the country. All these troubles have caused Goulart to pursue a somewhat wobbly "neutralist course in some international mat ters. Nixon Plans To Support Cal Winner WASHINGTON (UPD- Richard M. Nixon has told newspaper friends here that he will endorse for the 1064 Republican presiden tial nomination the candidate who wins next year's California presi dential primary. The 1060 GOP presidential can didate said that a Republican without the courage to enter the California primary would not mer it nomination. The primary will be held in June, 1964. Nixon arrived in Washington Monday from New York and Phil adelphia. He planned to leave to day, probably for Miami. Nixon denied reports that he might shift his residence from Los Angeles to New York. Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York appears to Nixon to be the front-runner now for the 1064 nomination. But Nixon em phasized that there were other available and able Republicans, none of whom could be written off. He included Govs. George Romney of Michigan and William W. Scranton of Pennsylvania, and Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona. After a talk last week with Nixon in New York, Rockefeller (ordered former Gov. Goodwin J. Knight of California to close a Rockefeller- for- President head quarters just opened in Los An geles. Nixon told reporters here that Rockefeller understood that no Nixon supporters would be mem bers of a California nominating convention delegation of which Knight also was a member. He said Rockefeller had to choose be tween Knight and the Nixon peo ple. Nixon said that he hoped to help define the issues in the com ing presidential campaign. He be lieves that President Kennedy would win a landslide re-election in a polling today, but that it all may be different next year. 1 lie former vice president is confident that the Republican Na tional Convention could not ignore a candidate who had won the Cal ifornia primary. He said it would displace the standard political tests the New Hampshire and Wisconsin presidential primaries.
