Nasser Sets Constitution
For Gaza Strip Region
CAIRO (M)-President Gamal Abdel Nasser yesterday proclaimed
a constitution for the Gaza Strip, a coastal segment of Palestine that
has been under Egyptian administration since the Arab-Israeli war
of 1948.
He said, however, a Palestine state is the goal.
A presidential decree declared Gaza is "an integral part of Pal-
estine lands and its people (many of them among the million Arab
refugees of the war) are part of '

-

the Arab nation."
The new constitution, Nasser
said, is applicable in Gaza until
such time as a permanent consti-
tution is issued for a Palestine
state.
The decree said the Palestinians
in Gaza will form a national un-
ion with "the aim of restoring
the usurped lands in Palestine."
The decree guaranteed for Pal-
estinians equality of rights and
duties with no discrimination of
race, language or religion; and.
individual freedom of expression
and private ownership.
The decree also organized exec-
utive, legislative and judiciary
branches of the Gaza government.
An appointed governor general
will head the executive council of

Pilots Train
Vietnamese
WASHINGTON (M) - Officials
said yesterday American pilots are
engaged in combat missions with
Vietnamese pilots in training them
to fight Red guerrillas.
Reports from Saigon have said
the United States-supplied planes,
flown by American and Vietna-
mese pilots, haveengaged in
bombing and strafing attacks
against the Communists.
No immediate clarification was
available from the State Depart-
ment on whether this fits in with
the U.S. policy as enunciated by
President John F. Kennedy-that
Americans in Viet Nam are as-
signed for training not combat,
but are under orders to fire back
if shot at.
Some 4,000 U.S. military have
been sent to Viet Nam in the mas-
sive United States aid and train-
ing program against the Commu-
nist guerrillas.
Officials emphasized that Amer-
ican pilots do not fly alone on
combat missions, but are always

By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON-The Pentagon
acted yesterday to set up a pool
of reservists tagged for quick
emergency callup and eased re-
quirements for students and teach-
ers in the ready reserve.
The new pool is designed to
ease the future hardships and
difficulties such as those that be-
set reservists called during the
Berlin crisis.
Men in the pool would be used
to fill understrength reserve or
National Guard units summoned
to active duty in any new cold
war emergencies.
- Grant Delay
Students or teachers now not
serving in organized units of the
ready reserve may be granted a
delay in any future callup until
the completion of the school quar-
ter or semester in which they are
studying or teaching.
Just how many men would be
placed in the pool is impossible
to say now, a Defense Depart-
ment spokesman said, since each
service is working out its own pro-
gram.
The project is an outgrowth of
complaints registered when 155,000
reservists and National Guards-
men were summoned to duty last
fall. Some of them said they were
called up unfairly because of fam-
ily responsibilities, critical jobs
and other reasons they consid-
ered entitled them to deferment.
Reservist Complaints
Most of the complaints came
from among the 28,000 Army ready,
reservists who were summoned to
fill the below-strength units. The
Army said part of this resulted
because the reservists did not keep
the service informed of changes
in their family and job status.
The pool will be set up along
guidelines laid down by Secretary
of Defense Robert S. McNamara

explained to a congressional com-
mittee Jan. 19.
Preferably, he said, the pool
would consist of men who had,
only six months of full-time train-
ing before entering the reserve.
'These persons," he said, "would
be carefully screened to eliminate
all those not available for imme-
diate recall for reasons of occu-
pation, family status, etc."
Screen Carefully
Yesterday's Defense Department
announcement said the Army,
Navy and Air Force and Marines

will carefully screen those sele
ed for the pool to insure that ti
are available. Then, it said, t]
will be notified that they hi
been tagged for priority call
active duty.
A Defense Department spok
man in discussing the emerger
pool of reservists said one se
ice, which he did not identify, 1
considered avoiding the callup
men who were mustered in
Berlin crisis, if another em
gency should develop after tl
return to civilian life.

ful tools in testing out future pro-
posals on the railroads," he says.
The main broad conclusions of
Smith and the other public mem-
bers In the report are:
-The present system of rules is
outmoded in many fundamentals;
-Work relations between em-
ployes 'and railroads are governed
by a system of rules, regulations
and practices that largely came
into being before modern tech-
nology, and hence are also out-
mode ;
Work Rules
-The system of work rules fails
to achieve a full and reasonable
apportionment of work and com-
pensation.
Smith, who ,served the State
Bar five years in a formal capacity
advising on labor relations, and
the other public members of the
Railroad Commission recommend:
mend:,
-A gradual annual reduction
in retirement age should be pro-
vided so that by 1967 all employes
would be required to retire at age
65;'
-The permissible maximum
hours on duty should be reduced
from 16 to 14 and eventually to
12,together with weekly and
monthly limits;
Cubans Form
Collective Unit
HAVANA W)-Cuba's Marxist-
Leninist rulers appeared to have
embraced collective leadership
yesterday by announcing a 25-
member directorate without a
chairman, president or vice-presi-
dent.
The directorate composes the
leadership of the Integrated Rev-
olutionary Organization (ORD),
the pilot organization for Cuba's
single proletarian - style party
which is to be formed.
Heading the list are Prime Min-
ister Fidel Castro, followed in or- .
der by his brother Raul, the armed
forces chief, Argentine-born in-
dustries minister Ernesto (Che)
Guevara and President Osvaldo
