THE MICHIGAN DAILY rAcE THRVE TIlE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THRj~E 9 Senate Committee Passes Missile Information Debated by Officials , Keirn-t-edy School, A] r To End Moscow Ties In Europe WASHINGTON (P)-The Senate voted, 43-36, yesterday to grant President John F. Kennedy wide authority to aid Eastern European countries whenever he thinks it would help break their, ties with Moscow. It did so over vehement protests of a minority who argued that any aid intended for the people would, in the end, be gulped up by puppet Communist govern- ments. This would tighten the Russians' dictatorial grip rather than loosen it, the opponents said. Sen. Strom Thurmond (D-SC) called it an example of "the naivete of the self-styled humani- tarians-whom I prefer to call misguided radicals." Hesaid when the "United !States sent wheat to Poland a few years ago all it did was "alleviate the economic strain" on the Kremlin. The legislation, which now goes to an uncertain fate in the House, would amend the Battle Act which places tight curbs on any assist- ance to a country which ships strategic materials to Russia and Communist countries, including Red China. Sen. J. William Fulbright (D- Ark), asking passage, said Ken- nedy's only immediately planned use of the authority is to lend back to Poland American-held Po- lish currency obtained through the sale 'of surplus farm commodities to that government. "It is expected that Poland and the United States will agree over a period of time to use this Polish currency in the field of health, education and community facilities," Fulbright, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, told the Senate. Green Seeks Cuban Talks GENEVA (P)-Canada's Foreign Minister said yesterday his coun- try is ready to mediate between the United States and Cuba when the dust settles over that bitter feud. Howard C. Green discussed. the Cuban situation with Secretary of State Dean Rusk in Oslo Tuesday. He indicated Mexico and Brazil are also interested in placing their good offices at the disposal of Washington and Havana. The foreign minister added Canada, with British encourage- ment, is thinking of joining the Orgiinization of American States (OAS) in the hope of playing a more active role in the affairs of the Western Hemisphere. During private sessions, Green criticized the United States for its publicly stated unwillingness to negotiate with the regime of Fidel Castro. But he also expressed con- cern at the ever-developing pro- Soviet orientation of Cuba. "The more Cuba is pushed the greater becomes her reliance on the Soviet bloc. Of course Canada is farther away from Cuba than the United States and so it's eas- ier for us to seem more dispas- sionate. But we would hope to be able to solve this problem when the situation slows down and eases a bit," he said. Kennedy Asks Delinquency Program Aid By The Associated Press WASHINGTON -- President John F. Kennedy asked Congress yesterday to declare a five-year federal war on juvenile delinquen- cy. He said offenses by youth "di- minish the strength and the vital- ity of our nation." Primarily his $10 million legis- lation would help "those dedicat- ed persons in local communities throughout the nation who are striving in many ways to create social conditions" that choke off juvenile delinquency, Kennedy said. The bill would provide for grants to state and* community agencies to aid [n the evaluation of techniques for controlling de- linquency. GOVERNMENT REPORT: Factory Employment Shows Improvement WASHINGTON () - Employ- ment on factory assembly lines. began to show some small but encouraging improvement in Ap- ril. The government also reported yesterday that the factory work week-one of the most closely watched economic indicators - rose again in April. The work week increase was only 6 minutes to an average 39.2 hours a week but it represented a full half hour rise since January. Seymour Wolfbein, Labor De- partment manpower chief, said Johnson Pledges Aid to Viet Nam SAIGON, South Viet Nam RP'- Vice-President Lyndon B. Johnson worried the police but tickled the fancy of cheering, flag-waving crowds of Vietnamese who wel- comed him to Southeast Asia yes- terday. The Vice-President brought a cheering promise that President John F. Kennedy is determined to give South Viet Nam powerful sup- port in its fight against Commu- nist guerrillas. these minor changes are "not something you want to write home about, but in terms of what's hap- pened we think this small turn- around is significant." Wolfbein said the statisticians have their fingers crossed over the strength of the upturn, looking for some reversal in the still-ris- ing trend of long-term unemploy- ment and for improvements in especially hard-hit industries, oc- cupations and areas. The principal April job figures had been released a week ago. They showed employment rose by 218,000, less - than expected, to 65,734,000. Unemployment fell by 533,000, more than expected, to 4,962,000. Some further seasonal cut in the idle total is due in May. Factory employment remained about the same in April at 15.5 million but showed increases in certain key industries such as steel and other metals production, met- al fabricating and machinery- making. Wolfbein said the fact that fac- tory employment remained steady in April was especially encourag- ing because the month usually brings a seasonal decline of about 100,000. [d Bill Group Adds $252 Million To Proposal Dirkson, Goldwater Oppose Funds Boost WASHINGTON (/P)-The Senate Labor committee approved a $2.55 billion school aid bill yesterday and pointed it toward a floor bat- tle starting next Tuesday. The committee added $252 mil- lion to President John F. Kenne- dy's recommendations but did not change the purposes for which the money could be used. Thus the funds would be available for pub- lic school construction or teacher salaries, or both, during the next three years. Kennedy May Approve Sponsors did not claim White House approval of the higher spending figure, but they indicat- ed confidence that Kennedy would accept it. All ten committee Democrats and two Republicans voted for the measure, which includes a newly adopted formula for allotting money among the states. Oppos- ing them in the 12-2 lineup were Senate Republican Leader Ever- ett M. Dirksen of Illinois and Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz), Dirksen told reporters he was against the original bill and was even more opposed "now that it has been increased more than $200 million." Trim Bill The measure was discussed at a conference of Senate and House GOP leaders and Dirksen said Re- publicans will try to trim it down with amendments on the Senate floor. H o u s e Republican Leader Charles A. Halleck of Indiana said there will not be "any tremendous Republican support" for the bill, but its Democratic sponsors seem- ed confident they have the votes for passage. No money is provided for pri- vate schools, but private school pupils are counted in a state's en- rollment for distribution purposes. Chief effect of this is to increase the aid for such states as Penn- sylvania and Michigan which have big parochial school enrollments. No matching funds are required. WASHINGTON (m)-A Defense Department spokesman said yes- terday that "under no circum- stances does Secretary Robert S. McNamara think that the Ameri- can public should be misled about a military program." "But at the same time he does not think we should gratuitously provide any potential enemy with valuable information about any difficulties which may be encoun- tered in the development of new weapons systems." This was the Pentagon's reply to questions newsmen raised about remarks McNamara made before the Senate Armed Services Com- mittee in secret session while dis- cussing military secrecy about the Nike Zeus anti-missile missile, and other projects. "Why should we tell Russia that the Zeus developments may not be satisfactory? What awe ought to be saying is that we have the most perfect anti-ICBM system that the human mind will ever devise. Instead, the public domain is already full of statements that the Zeus may not be satisfactory, that it has deficiencies ... I think it is absurd to release that kind of information for the public," McNamara told the committee. This statement startled some newsmen, who interpreted it as Constitutional Changes Asked By Portuguese LISBON ()-Political oppon- ents of Premier Antonio Salazar's regime yesterday called for dras- tic changes in the Portuguese constitution to bring about a more democratic rule for the na- tion. Their demands coincided with new and violent crises in Portu- guese Africa and followed Sala- zar's recent attempts to strength- en his hand with government shakeups. Seventy well known opposition figures-lawyers, journalists and businessmen-submitted their de- mands in the form of a memo- randum to the press. Political ob- servers saw the move as the first shot in the election campaign for the National Assembly next Octo- ber. meaning McNamara favored giv- ing out falsely optimistic informa- tion about the Nike-Zeus and oth- er secret military projects. Referring to McNamara's ref- erence to telling Russia that Zeus developments may not be satis- factory, the Pentagon spokesman said the secretary had in mind "the enormous advantages to Rus- sia of our disclosing difficulties which might develop in new weap- ons systems." Miller Urges Wiretapin WASHINGTON P)-A Justice Department official yesterday urg- ed Congress to legalize telephone wiretapping by federal and state police agencies and to permit the use of wiretap evidence in crim- inal trials. But such authority should be accompanied by strict safeguards against invasion of privacy, Her- bert S. Miller of the department! said. "Law enforcement officials should be as free as criminals to use modern scientific methods," Miller told the Senate Constitu- tional Rights Subcommittee. This group is conducting hearings on bills proposing to authorize wire- tapping to varying degrees. Miller said the law should give only the President and Attorney General authority to permit wire- tapping in the investigation of spying, subversion and other crimes affecting national security. In cases involving othe'r crimes this authority should be vested in the courts. The bill should permit each state to write its own rules for wiretapping by state and local of- ficials, he said.

McClellan (D-Ark) yesterday appealed to Congress to outlaw strikes which he called damnable and blamed for slowing down the space flight-missile programs. McClellan heads the Senate Investigations subcommittee which has just suspended its hearings on labor troubles at missile bases. He said the disclosures were appalling-at least as shocking as anything turned by up the old Senate Racket Committee he headed during three years of probing into labor-management-underworld ties. * * * * NAIROBI (MP)-Kenya yesterday moved another step toward inde- pendence from Britain, opening its multiracial legislative council while police held off thousands of howling African demonstrators. Goy. Sir Patrick Renison told the new colonial ministry-which Tom Mboya's Kenya African National Union has refused to join- that he believes Kenya can emerge as an independent nation where all races can live without fear. S* 9s * COQUILHATVILLE, The Congo VP)--In a mood of now or never, President Joseph Kasavubu and his supporters are making a final drive to draw up a new constitution for the Congo. Uppermost in the minds of the delegates to the Coquilhatville political conference is an absent member, Katanga's Moise Tshombe, locked up in a guarded villa and charged with treason. Hope for a workable solution to the Congo's 10-month-old politi- cal and economic crisis rose as committees wound up their work for presentation to the full conference.
