In The-
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
. You may have noted that all
over the country politicians are
out on limbs. In Miami Beach,
for example, where the governors
o our 50 states are assembled
in convention to consider:
. 1. The problems of the nation.
2. The problems o the states
they represent.
3. Their own personal prob
lems. Of Ihese. No. 3 is the most im-
portant-especially to the Repub
lican governors. Al this moment
in history, nobody knows whom
the Republican party will choose
tn be its standard hearer in the
Presidential race next year.
Se
lf some Republican governor
could just come up at Miami
Beach with a diamond-studded
proposal thai would sweep the
governors convention off its feet
and co on to sweep the country
like a prairie fire, he would have
it made.
The situation at Miami Beach
this year is a good deal like the
situation at Chicago back in 1896,
when the Democrats were simi
larly uncertain as to whom to
nominate as their candidate for
President and William Jennings
Bryan came up with his famous
sneech in which lie saia: you
shall not crucify mankind on a
cross of gold."
The speech won him the Demo
cratic nomination for President.
. If some Republican governor
could just hit the jackpot at Mi
ami Beach like Bryan hit it at
Chicago 67 years ago, he'd have
it made.
It's little wonder they're all giv
ing their best.
The prize at stake is a big one.
' Politics these days is fulIof
problems.
They have one down at Fresno,
where the Western Sunbathing
Association is holding its annual
convention at the Calyptus Grove
nudist camp near Fresno.
They're looking for a speaker.
But the prospects-are all shy.
The Mayor of Fresno who. the
reporters say, seldom turns down
an opportunity to make a speech
begs off. "I'm no prude," he
says, "out I honestly don t think
I could do it justice."
Everybody else seems to feel
the same way about it.
The chairman of the conven
tion, a Mr. Howard Lane, says:
"We have run into tins kind o:
problem before. Civic leaders are
just too sensitive,
He adds:
"I've thought of asking the
Fresno convention for help, but
I suppose that's out too. One of
our agency's principal functions
during a convention is to havei
pretty young women fill out name
cards and PIN THEM ON DELE
GATES. That, you know, can be
a painful procedure.
Problems.
Problems everywhere.
It's a weird world we're living
In. .

Both Sides
In Civil Rights Issue
MIAMI BEACH (UPII-Demo-
cratic and Republican governors
all shouted 'victory claims today
in appraising the outcome of the
partisan civil rights contest w hich
kept the annual governors' con
ference boiling for three days.
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of
New York, who led the outnum
bered Republicans in their cam
paign, claimed a victory because
the final product was similar to
the proposal he submitted a
month ago.
But it was a Democratic pro
posal which was approved Tues
day by a 88 to 3 vote with only
three Southerners dissenting.
Three Dixie governors were re
corded for it and five were ab
sent.
There was little doubt, how
ever, that the heat generated by
Rockefeller had resulted in ap
proval of the compromise plan in-
$72,000 Preparations
Made For Mrs. Kennedy
WASHINGTON (UPII-A wing
of the base hospital at Otis Air
Force Base, Mass., has been
specially prepared as a materni
ty suite for Mrs. Jacqueline Ken
nedy at a cost of more than $12,
000. It was understood that the fa
cilities were set up for Mrs. Ken
nedy to have her baby next
month at the hospital, 18 miles
from her summer home at Hyan-
nis Port, if she should decide
against returning to Washington
for the birth.
Original plans were for the
First Lady to go to Walter Reed
Army Hospital here. This still
has not been ruled out, but the
arrangements are being made for
her care at Otis AFB on an "if
needed" basis.

have warmed his presidential
hopes considerably.
The 55th -annual governors'
meeting ends today after two
more business sessions which
may cause an anti-climactic argu-l
ment over more Republican civil
rights proposals. These were re
ported coming in a minority re
port from the Public Welfare
Committee in the form of de
mands that federal aid be with
held from states permitting ra
cial discrimination in state-feder

Election of a new chairman was
also on today's agenda with the
job going to a Republican under
the traditional rotation between
the parties. Gov. Robert E. Smy-

the probable choice.
Mrs. Kennedy's press secretary
Pamela Turnure confirmed today
that a suite had been "spruced
up" at Otis in a "purely precau

Kennedy still planned to return
to Washington in time to have

late next month.
The wing being icserved for
Mrs. Kennedy was reported to

The suite includes a room
for the President, which is said to
have bullet-proof windows. Other

Nikita Offers African Atom Ban
Freedom Call
Is Softened
By Africans
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (UPI
African delegations today were
preparing a resolution on Portu
guese colonialism more moderate
than Tuesday's Soviet demand in
the Security Council that Portu
gal get out of Atrica this year.
The council, in the third day
of debate on Portugal's African
colonics, awaited the reply of
Portuguese Foreign Minister Al
berto Franco Nogueira to charges
of misrule raised by the 32 Afri
can nations and the Soviet Union.
But the African resolution, ex
pected to be presented to the
council today or Thursday, was
much less drastic than the Soviet
demand voiced Tuesday by Am
bassador Nikolai T. Federenko.
He told the council that Portu
gal's "colonial regime should be
liquidated before the end of this
year" and that economic and dip
lomatic sanctions should be voted
"unequivocally" against Portugal.
The four African diplomats who
presented the ease against Por
tugal on instructions of the recent
African summit conference in Ad
dis Ababa went no further than
asking the council to set a time
limit date unspecified for
Portugal to free its colonies or
face sanctions.
Portuguese sources said Nogue
ira was preparing a long rebuttal
to the African indictment and
iplanned to speak for an hour or
more.
Federenko went almost that
long Tuesday in a sweeping in
dictment of NATO assistance to
Portugal in repression of natives
in Angola, Mozambique and Por
tuguese Guinea.
Except for charging that the
United States supplied military
aid to Portugal to the extent
of $268 million dollars Federen
ko, perhaps reflecting the Mos
cow mood of the nuclear test ban
negotiations, was mild in his re
marks about Washington.

MOSCOW lUPI) - Premier Ni-
kita Khrushchev today offered
luarantees to make the African
continent a non-nuclear zone if the
United States and other nuclear
powers agree.
Khrushchev made his offer as
American, British and Soviet ne
gotiators met for what diplomats
said could be the final round of
talks aimed at a limited nuclear
test ban treaty that would be the
first major cold war settlement in
eight years.
His remarks came in a mes
sage to Alrican nations which
took part in the recent confer
ence at Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
In his message, Khrushchev
pledged further Soviet efforts to
ease world tension.
"We shall go on doing every
thing to ease international ten
sion, to consolidate peace by im
plementing the principles of the
peaceful coexistence of states," he
said.
The official Tass News Agency,
in reporting the message, said
Khrushchev believes East - West
agreement to cease nuclear test
ing in space, in the atmosphere
and under water could effect "a
radical turn" toward bettering the
international climate.
Tass said Khrushchev also
wants a non-aggression treaty be
tween the NATO powers and the
Communist Warsaw treaty pow
ers. Khrushchev said in his message

Ababa conference to honor the
"decisions on the recognition of
Africa as an atomless zone."
He said that if the African na
tions conclude an agreement ' to
this effect, the Soviet Union "is
ready to give the necessary guar
antees that, in case of any mili
tary complications, Africa will be
regarded as a continent which is
outside the use of nuclear arms."
"Provided, of course," he ad
ded, "that identical guarantees
are given simultaneously by the
United Slates and the other nu
clear powers."
In the past, Communist Po
land's Foreign Minister Adam
Rapacki has suggested that a
stretch of Central Europe be de
clared an atom - free zone. Tins
view has been endorsed by the
Soviet Union, and Khrushchev
himself has repeated the sugges
tion on several occasions and
even has suggested the Mediter
ranean and other places be sim
ilarly designated atom-free areas.
Khrushchev also called for an
end to racial segregation in Afri
ca and an end to colonialism.
Tass distributed Khrushchev's
message as the top-level negotia
tors reportedly worked out final
details before initialing the test
ban agreement, which had been
expected some time today.
But, informed sources said, it
now appeared unclear whether a
drafting committee had settled on
wording satisfactory to both
sides.
Any test ban afireement would
would have to approve the treaty
under the U.S. Constitution.
In an effort to win the needed
Senate backing, Secretary of State
Dean Rusk went before the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee
Tuesday with a copy of the ten
tative two-page treaty to outlaw
land, sea and air tests.
Informed sources said that the
senators were generally impressed
with the document, which was de
scribed as "simple" and contain
ing no hidden gimmicks.
Rusk was cautious in his -public
remarks after the closed session
with tlie Senate group, saying the
draft was not complete.
This reflected the administra
tion's desire to avoid giving the
impression that everything was
nailed down, lest Soviet negotia
tors try al the last minute to in
sert some new conditions in the
draft.
Soviet Premier Nikita Khrush
chev has said he would like to
have an East-West non-aggression
treaty or pledge tied to the test
ban pact. But the Russian nego-
lators have not inserted this in the
draft and reportedly have shown
no intention of doing so.
Under Secretary of State W.
Averell Harriman, the U.S. nego
tiator in Moscow, is expected to
initial the draft but the question
of who will formally sign for the
United States has not been set
tled.

WASHINGTON (UPI) House Commerce Commit
tee Chairman Oren Harris formally asked the railroads
today to delay putting their proposed work rules Into
effect for 30 days.
Harris appealed to the
more time to consider the complicated dispute pre
sented to it by President Kennedy. He asked for an an
swer within 24 hours.
The Arkansas Democrat said that Congress could
not and should not be required to act on Kennedy's
proposal for averting a strike by next Tuesday, the
date the railroads said they
rules into operation. The rail unions have stated they
will strike if the rules are put into effect.
Harris issued his plea as
his committee began hear-l
ings on Kennedy's plan for
settling the dispute through
the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
In an unexpected move, rail
road spokesmen arose from the
back of the crowded hearing
room and asked Harris for per-!
mission to make a statement.
Daniel P. Loomis, president of
the Association of American Rail
roads, told Harris that it was not
authorized to respond to the re
quest, but he said he wanted to
make the railroads' position
clear.
Reading from typed sheets of
paper, he said he was "dis
turbed" at the request for post
ponement because further delay
could bring more harm to the
hard - pressed rail industry. He
contended that the mere threat of
a strike was driving business
away from the railroads.
Harris then told Loomis that
the committee recognized the
railroads' problem. He added,
however, that Loomis' statement
"gives substance to what I say
about 30 days being too short a
time to consider this matter."
Congressional leaders, backed
by AFL-CIO President George
Meany, also have appealed to the
raihoads to delay the showdown.lment accounts in U. S. banks, ac-
, r T t P

that as it stands now, our pro
mulgation of work rule changes
will tie made effective at 12:01
a.m. Tuesday, July 30." The rail
unions have announced they will
strike if the rule changes are
made.
The House Commerce Commit
tee called Labor Secretary W.
Willard Wirtz to testify at the
opening of hearings on President
Kennedy s proposal to shunt the
dispute to the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
The railroads endorsed the
President's plan Tuesday by a
unanimous vole, but Wolfe said
that only enactment of the pro
posed legislation could head off
work rules changes Tuesday.
Chairman Oren Harris, D-Ark.,
of the House Commerce Commit-'
tee said Congress could not com
plete action on the measure by
the management deadline. And it
shouldn't have to, he added.
Harris told a reporter that Con
gress should be given enough
time to act carefully on a mat
ter that he described as "so sen
sitive, so delicate and so impor
tant."
He said that he hoped all par
ties involved in the dispute would
act reasonably to keep the sta
tus quo."
Similar appeals were voiced
Tuesday by House Speaker John
W. McCormack, D-Mass., Senate
Democratic Leader Mike Mans

Meany, in a letter to the con

suggested that the House and
Senate adopt a resolution urging

tions for 30 days.
The AFL-CIO president said
Congress could not complete ac
tion on the railroad measure by
Tuesday and its consideration "of
this vital subject should take
place free from the pressures
and strains that would be en
gendered by a shutdown."
Fidel Grabs
Embassy
As Reprisal
HAVANA (UPI) - The Castro
government today expropriated
the United Slates Embassy Build
ing and grounds in a move be
lieved unprecedented in diplo
matic history.
The action was taken in reprisal
for the reeling of Cuban govern-
cording to the expropriation de-
cree. "
The Swiss mission protested
verbally both the expropriation de
cree and a Cuban government re
quest that they evacuate the
premises as soon as possible. The
protest was made by Swiss
Charge d'Affaires Charles Masset
to Foreign Minister Haul Roa.
Further consultations between
Roa and Masset were expected to
day.
The decree was signed by Prime
Minister Fidel Castro, President
Osvaldo Dorticos and Treasury
Minister Luis Alvarez.
The embassy has housed the
Swiss mission for American af-
fairs, beneath the Swiss flag, since
the United States broke relations
with Cuba on Jan. 4, 1361.
The nationalization decree even
specified that all the embassy's
equipment and furniture have
been assumed by the elate."
The decree said it is the
duty of the revolutionary govern
ment of Cuba, in the mainten
ance of national dignity and sov
ereign rights of our people, to re
spond to the aggressions ot tne
United Slates.
The latest aggression was the
bank freeze, the decree said.
The building on the Malecon
Seawall Drive was modeled after
the United Nations Secretariat
Building in New York.
Nine Forest

SALEM (UPD Nine forest
areas in Klamath and Lake coun
