Troops Summoned
Ronal Guard troops were call-

and other states to search for
bombs and to guard similar relay
stations. Some of the guardsmen
were relived later by 'civilians.
FBI agents pouring into the
area had nothing to say about the
aims or methods of their investi-
gation. They sifted through debris
at the blast sites. Dynamite wrap-
ped in military olive drab material
was found at one station.
Mountain States T&T moved in
mobile equipment to fill the gap
in the microwave system. Damage
was estimated at $850,000.

DALLAS -. Victorious college
professor John G. Tower last
weekend became the first Re-
publican ever to win a statewide
office in a Texas popular election.
The victory of Tower, a conser-
vative, left gleeful GOP workers
glad that they had rung so many
doorbells, while the Democrats
were wondering what went wrong.
Tower won Saturday's special
United States Senate runoff elec-
tion by 8,000 over incumbent Sen.
William A. Blakley, a Democrat
who holds the seat on interim ap-
pointment.

Depend on Truce in Laos

GENEVA (P) - The Western'
powers prodded the Soviet Union
yesterday on the extreme urgency
of gaining an effective cease fire
in Laos to prevent collapse of the
14-nation conference here on that
Southeast Asian nation's future.
Informants said one object of
this exercise was to show the
Kremlin there is a limit to West-
ern patience.
In Geneva and Moscow British
diplomats repeatedly asserted pres-
ent truce arrangements in Laos.

appear to be falling apart. They
urged the Soviet Union to join
the British government In dis-
patching firmer directions to the
international control commission
trying to keep the peace in Laos.
The British failed to budge the
Russians; Instead the Soviet side
insisted present cease fire ar-
rangements are adequate and that
the international conference here
should get down to considering
Russia's veto-based proposals for
settling the Laotian problem.
The deadlock between Britain's
Malcolm MacDonald and Soviet
Deputy Foreign Minister; Georghi
Pushkin showed, itself in the
failure of the international con-
ference itself to meet yesterday
after a four-day recess.

Tower had 444,815 votes, ort
50.45 per cent of the 881,630 votes,<
to Blakley's 436,815. Approximately

DETROIT - Secretary of Labor
Arthur Goldberg said yesterday
the Kennedy administration does'
not intend to "intervene or inter-
fere" in upcoming auto wage nego-
tiations, but he added that a
strike within the industry would be
"intolerable."
TALLAHASSEE -- A bill re-
quiring Florida high schools to
teach a course in "Americanism
versus Communism" became a law
yesterday with Gov. Farris Bry-
ant's signature.
VIENNA - Austria's Univer-
sity students 'started a weeklong
strige yesterday in protest against
a reduction of the education bud-

the walkout.
WELCH, W. Va. - This de-
pressed coal-mining area yester-
day became the first testing
ground for a Kennedy administra-
tion plan to take the nation's
needy off food handouts and send
them to grocery stores for better
diets.
LEOPOLDVILLE - President
Moise Tshombe of Katanga, who
has been held prisoner by the Cen-

MIAMI - As a new wave of

the outcome-remained to be
counted.
Tower says that he is the same
type of conservative as Sen. Barry
M. Goldwater (R-Ariz) who, along
with GOP National Chairman Sen.
Thruston B. Morton (R-Kty) and
former President Dwight D. Eisen-
hower campaigned for him.
The Kennedy administration, in
Tower's view, is committed to
"creeping socialism and shows a
lack of confidence in the people
to make their own desicions.
'Put on Brakes'
"Congress's biggest job is to
put the brakes on these purported
liberal schemes which can debase
our currency and undermine our
rights," he says.
Tower describes himself as a
moderate in civil rights. He ad-
vocates "fiscal responsibility" and
is opposed todeficit government
spending, federal control in sub-
sidies, medical aid for the aged,
an increase in minimum wages;
and federal aid to education.
Second Race
This race was his second for the
seat. Last November he ran
against Vice-President Lyndon B.
Johnson, who won and later va-
cated the seat to take his place
in the administration.
Congressional Republicans, ju-
bilant over the result, claimed that
the victory was the beginning of
a trend in the South\
However, Democrats on Capitol
Hill said that it only goes to show
what happens to Democrats who
desert the concepts of President
John F. Kennedy.
BothTower and Blakley have
been described as "conservative."

Supreme Court Back
'Ble Laws; Religiouu

Jews See Adverse
Effect on Sabbath
WASHINGTON (P) - Sunday
Blue Laws won a sweeping victory
in the Supreme Court yesterday.
The Court handed down four
separate rulings upholding con-
stitutionality of Maryland, Massa-
chusetts and Pennsylvania laws
restricting business activity on
Sunday.
In two of the cases-one of two
from Pennsylvania and one from
Massachusetts - the chief issue
was whether the Blue Laws inter-
ferred with the free exercise of
religion by Orthodox Jews who
observe their Sabbath on Satur-
day.
Warren Speaks
Chief Justice' Earl Warren said
he did not. find the statutes' pur-
pose or effect is religious. Warren
wrote that Blue Laws may result
in financial sacrifice by those who
observe their Sabbath on days
other than Sunday, but said this
"is wholly different than when
the legislation attempts to make
a religious practice itself unlaw-
ful"

PARIS (A) - Two French gen-
erals, stripped of their rank and
their uniforms, faced a military
court yesterday on treason charges
stemming from last month's un-
successful military revolt in Al-
giers.
One strongly defended himself,
the other collapsed and was un-
able to speak in his own behalf.
Former Gens. Maurice Challe
and Andre Zeller could be sentenc-
ed to death for their role in the
army's defiance of President Char-
les de Gaulle's proposals for the
future of Algeria. They should
know their fate by Wednesday
night.
Under French law they were not

required to enter a plea. The fact
charged against them are hard
in dispute. Their defense was th

Challe, who formerly comman
ed in Algeria and then served
the head of the Atlantic Allian
Central Europe Command, sat b
tween guards with Zeller, form

Challe, a southern FrenchhE
argued his case with consideral
skill. He spoke hoarsely, in d
military tones, avoiding any dr
matic display. He said only
handful of officers opposed t

A carefully worded announce-

tinue a day or two longer.
MacDonald and Pushkin-the
conference chairmen-met for al-
most four hours. Their private dis-
cussion failed to produce agree-
ment on the work the conference
should undertake next. According
to one account, the British dele-
gation leader "spoke plainly" to
Pushkin.
The Indiana - Canadian - Polish
