5, 19G1' - THE MICHIGAN, DAILY PAGE 5, 1961 - THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAt~ Significant Elections Near WASHINGTON (}P - A signifi- cant and perhaps close race for governor in, New Jersey, where a "battle of the presidents" sparked an otherwise dull campaign, holds the spotlight in Tuesday's state and city elections in a handful of states. President John F. Kennedy and former President Dwight D. Eisen- hower have tested their influence in the New Jersey governor's race by personal visits'into the state to speak respectively for Democrat Richard J. Hughes, Secretary of Labor under Eisenhower. Eisenhower said a victory for Mitchell would be a good omen for the 1962 Congressional elections and for the philosophy of govern- ment the former President repre- sents. Kennedy said a Hughes victory, would insure continued coopera- tion between Democratic admini- strations in. Washington and New Jersey. Personal Forays Kennedy and his White House predecessor also made personal forays into New York City to sup- port their favorites in the may- oral race between Democratic Mayor Robert F. Wagner, seeking a third term, and republican Louis J. Lefkowitz, state attornrey gen- eral.g fWagner is generally expected to win over Lefkowitz and city Comp- troller Lawrence E. Gerosa, a Democrat running as an independ- ent. The split in Democratic ranks was brought out in the open again Wednesday when Democrat- ic state chairman Michael H. Prendergast endorsed Gerosa. Out- Michigan Race A new Congressman is being elected to fill a seat in the first district, Wayne' County, where Democrat Rep. Thaddeus M. Machrowicz resigned to become a federal judge. Lucien N. Nedzi, Hamtramck attorney, is regarded as an easy winner over Republican Wal- ter Czarnecki, a Budd Co. em- ploye, in a district that invari- ably goes Democratic by big margins. going Tammany leader Carmine de Sapio also said he would not vote for Wagner. If any indicators for 1962 and 1964 turn up in Tuesday's elec- tions they most likely will be seen in New Jersey, a swing state in the last 10 years. The voting there and elsewhere will be the first si- multaneous test of sentiment in more than one state since the 1960 general elections. Four vacancies have been filled in the House and one in the Sen- ate since Kennedy's election, with one party overturn resulting. That was in the special senate race in Texas last May won by Republi- can John Tower. Only one other state is electing a governor Tuesday. Virginia is choosing between Democrat Albert S. Harrison, former attorney gen- eral, backed by the Democratic or- ganization led by Sen. Harfry F. Byrd, and Republican H. Clyde Pearson, 36-year-old Roanoke at- torney. Political observers say Harrison will win by at least a 3-2 margin. Other elections Tuesday involve a statewide judgeship race in. Pennsylvania in which the Demo- cratic entrant is a woman; state legislators in New Jersey, Virginia and Kentucky, and contests for mayor in scores of cities, includ- ing Buffalo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Louisville and Houston. Constitutional amendments and referenda to be voted on include three amendments in New York to put the state's credit behind $650 million in bonds for college dormitory construction, industrial development loans, and purchase of passenger-commuter cars for lease to yrailroads. Gonzalez WinsSeat n Texas SAN ANTONIO-P)-State Sen. Henry B. Gonzalez, a liberal Dem- ocrat, moved ahead in the race for San Antonio's congressional seat last night and a Republican official conceded the election. With 40 of the city's 170 pre- cincts reporting, Gonzalez had 14,202 votes to 10,871 for Repub- lican John Goode Jr. Three other Democrats polled a handful of votes each. Gonzalez moved ahead as re- sults of the precincts began coming in to the county election center. Goode led in the absentee voting 2,727 to 1,327 for Gonzalez. Officials of both parties watched the outcome closely for indications of two things: 1) Whether Texas became a two- party state when Republican John Tower was elected to 'the United States Senate last May. 2) And whether the vote would give any indication how other congressional races might go next year. Texas has 20 Democrats and one Republican in its House delegation. Re-election of Adenaue For New Term Assured ASIAN CONFEDERATION: Malaysia May Pose. Problem for West By SID MOODY Associated Press Newsfeatures Writer A new problem is sprouting in the crisis-rich lands of Southeast Asia.r This is the Greater Malaysian Union, so far only an idea, but al- ready one that could have deep repercussions, either good or bad, to the West's position in the un- easy area. Malaysia is the brainchild of Tengku Abdul Rahman, prime minister of Malaya. He has pro- posed a confederation of Singa- pore, Malaya, North Borneo, Bru- nei and Sarawak. While separated by water, the territories have common bonds with the fast-disappearing Brit- ish Empire as well as economic and racial similarities. But it is the status of the big British base at Singapore as well as possible Com- munist infiltration into the pro- posed union that are causing con- cern. Key Point Britain's naval base at Singa- pore is one of the key points of the Southeast Treaty' Organiza- tion's military system. Neither Malaya nor Singapore are SEATO members. Malaya, self-proclaimed as "non- aligned" although it has a defense treaty with Britaiji since becom- ing independent in 1957, says Bri- tain can use the base only to implement that treaty and to pro- tect Singapore. Singapore is self- governing, but Britain handles its defense and foreign affairs. Lee Kuan Yew, Socialist prime minister of Singapore, is putting pressure on Great Britain to dis- continue use of the base for SEA- TO purposes. Lee, who says his government is non-Communist but not anti-Communist, holds a thin -one-vote majority in the legisla- ture and presumably adopted an anti-SEATO attitude under pres- sure from- the strong pro-Com- munist left. To Honor Britain has said it will honor its committments to its SEATO al- lies and will make this clear to Rahman. However, the vulnerability of a fixed base in nuclear warfare has caused England to seriously con- sider abandoning its ancient poli- cy of naval bases in favor of a more self-sufficient mobile fleet. This could ease the Singapore Annournces Plan To Visit Washington Compromise Yields Coalition Government BONN (A)-The re-election of 85-year-old Chancellor Konrad Adenauer was virtually assured yesterday and he announced plans to visit Washington as soon as he forms a new government. The iron-willed chancellor's elec- tion to a fourth term became all but certain when his Christian Democrats in parliament voted to accept a compromise agreement with Erich Mende's Free Demo- crats to form a coalition govern- ment. The smaller party, like its senior partner, is conservative. Eugen Gerstenmaier, president of the lower house, last night is- sued a provisional summons to parliament to meet Tuesday to elect a chancellor. Call Provisional The call was provisional be- cause Gerstenmaier had not yet received a letter from President Heinrich Luebke nominating Ad- enauer. But this formality was expected by tomorrow. Political observers felt sure Ad- enauer, West Germany's only chancellor in its 12-year history, would be chosen over the opposi- tion of the Social Democrats and perhaps. a few delegates from the new coalition partners. The Christian Democrat- Free Democrat coalition commands 309 votes in the Bundestag, or lower house, while the Social Democrats hold. 190. The Christian Demo- crats have 242 seats. To Visit Kennedy Adenauer told newsmen he will go to Washington this month for talks with President John F. Ken- nedy on the German and Berlin situation as soon as he has dis- cussed international policy with his new cabinet. He said it would take another eight days to com- plete the government. Foreign office officials said they believed Kelnedys invitation al- ready was in the hands of United States Ambassador Walter C. Dowling and would be handed over to Adenauer as soon as he is elected. Adenauer had been quietly pres- sured by his allies to settle the coalition problem so West Ger- many could join in consultations on the next move in the Berlin crisis. The acceptance by the Chris- tian Democrats of the compromise ended a seven-week struggle. Ad- enauer's battle for his political life began Sept. 17 when his party lost its parliamentary majority in general elections. He had to seek outside help to stay in power. The Free Democrats first re- fused to serve in a government under him. They backed down down when he threatened to seek a coalition with the Socialist Dem- ocrats. In the bargaining that followed, Adenauer promised he would not serve out the full four-year term if elected. PROGRAMS by BUD-MOR "We carry a complete line of HARDING programs" UNITED NATIONS: Congo Strife First Issue for U Thant UNITED NATIONS (M)-Strife in the Congo became the first big issue for the United Nations' new acting secretary-general, U Thant of Burma, yesterday as the case was carried to the Security Coun- cil. Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Valerian A. Zorin, president of the Council this month, called. on U Thant to discuss a new request he had for a council meeting on the Congo situation. They talked for half an hour in the secretary-gen- eral's office. Convene Council The request reached Zorin late Friday night in a letter from Ethiopian, Nigerian and Sudanese delegates. They asked him to con- vene the 11-nation council '"to consider the situation prevailing in the province of Katanga, Re- public of Congo (Leopoldville), caused by the lawless acts of mer- cenaries." He was expected to call a meeting for tomorrow or. Tues- day. Ambassadors Tesfaye Gebre-Egzy of Ethiopia, Muhammad Ngileruma of Nigeria and Omar Abdel Hamid Adeel of Sudan did not say, in their letter to Zorin, what kind of resolution they wanted the council to pass. But Emperor Haile Selassie had laid down Ethiopia's position in a cable he sent Wednesday to Mongi Slim of Tunisia, president of the. UN general assembly. Situation Critical The emperor said Congolese cen- tral government forces "and the Xatanga mercenaries have clashed in combat." He called the situation highly critical.. The Security Council, he said, must act promptly to end hostili- ties and "to ensure the integration of Katanga into the Congolese nation." "Clear and unequivocal direc- tives must be given" to the UN force in the Congo, he added, and the council must call for UN pres- sure on "those colonialist nations which continue to support the Katanga secession." The present UN position, as laid down in past resolutions, is in favor of a unified Congo-in oth- MilliS trikes Threaten State NEW YORK (P)-Trucks driven by upstate dairy farmers rolled into this milk-starved city yester- day and raised a threat that a milk strike here would spread through the state.

But there is no special di- rective authorizing the UN force to use arms to end the secession.

CAIRO - President Gamal A. Nasser last night outlined plans for broad changes in his govern- ment, including elected local coun- cils and a national congress to rewrite the constitution. The move obviously was taken to head' off criticism stemming from last summer's sweeping measures of nationalization-Nas- ser calls it "Arab socialism" - and September's Syrian revolt in which Egypt lost its partner in the United Arab Republic. LONDON (A)-Prime Minister .Jawaharlal Nehru of India yester- day discussed world affairs with Prime Minister Harold Macmillan after declaring the Berlin crisis seemed to be easing. Here for 24 hours before making an official visit to the United States, Nehru told newsmen he saw the outline of an East-West agreement already in being over Berlin. Lists Features He listed three features: 1) Acceptance of East and West German regimes as normally func- tioning states. 2) Preservation of West Berlin's ties--and access routes--with the West. 3) Recognition of Germany's postwar frontiers-including the Oder-Neisse river line in the East. Nehru hinted India might recog- nize East German statehood - something Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev asked him in vain to do-if this would help a settle- ment. Nehru and Macmillan discussed the 22nd congress of the Soviet Communist Party in Moscow where Khrushchev assailed Stalin and won endorsement for his professed policy of peaceful coexistence. Little Significance Nehru by all accounts appeared to believe there was little signifi- cance in everyday international terms in Khrushchev's congress triumph. He was said to have told Macmillan that Khrushchev in his view, always was and always will be'ready for' serious negotia- tions. Macmillan, on the other hand, put the view of his advisers that Khrushchev, because of his con- gress successes, might be more difficult to deal with in the im- mediate problems ahead, notably on Germany.

While broadly supporting the Union, Britain is apprehensive that Singapore with its 75 per cent Chinese population, might some day turn from the Commonwealth to the Communist bloc. Furthermore, a federation be- tween Malaya and Singapore would give a slight population edge to the Chinese, a cause of worry also to Malaya. Britain thinks the addition of Brunei, North Borneo and Sara- wak to the federation would pro- vide a mediating balance. For- eign policy decisions, for instance, would be on a majority basis.
