World Mourns Death,
I Remembers Courage
Of Eleanor Roosevelt

Eden, Attlee
Rap Britain's!
Trade Entry
LONDON (P) - Two former
prime ministers-one Laborite, one
Conservative-announced in the
House of Lords yesterday they op-
pose Britain's entry into the Euro-
pean Common Market.
Both had caustic things to say
about France, West Germany and
Italy.
The Earl of Avon, who as Sir
Anthony Eden is a Conservative
ex-prime minister, said entry into
the six-nation trading community
would raise British food prices
10-12-per cent.
Attlee and Eden insisted that
three of the Common Market
members-West Germany, Italy
and France-do not possess Brit-
ain's traditional devotion to par-
liamentary democracy.
While the ECM nations now are
engaged in erasing trade barriers
among themselves, one ultimate
aim is some sort of political union.
Attlee declared that membership
could drag Britain into a tight
political association with the con-
tinent.
"Germany has had hardly any
experience in it (parliamentary
democracy), and Italy has had
very little."
Attlee said he considers French
President Charles de Gaulle, who
is lukewarm toward Britain's en-
try, "a very good European pro-
vided Europe is run by France."
Eden stressed British respon-
sibilities to the Commonwealth, its
European Free Trade Association
partners and others.

PARTY:
Governor
Notes Vigor,
By The Associated Press
LANSING-"I lost the election,"
Gov. John B. Swainson said yes-
terday, "but the Democratic Party
is as vigorous as I've ever seen it."
Holding his first capitol press
conference after his loss to Re-
publican George Romney, Swain-
son commented on the future of
the Democrats in Michigan, but
declined to answer any questions
about his own future.
He said he had "no specific
plans" but that he would like to
relax for a while.
Meanwhile, Romney scheduled
a meeting with the state adminis-
trative board-all Democrats-for
today in Lansing.

Fatal Illness Ends
Lifetime of Service
By MICHAEL HARRAH
City Editor
Eleanor Roosevelt is dead.
And with her has passed the
end of an era-the last of the
White House Roosevelts.
Republicans and Democrats alike
are paying tribute to this lady,
who, almost to the day of her
-death, had been active in world
affairs.
At 78 years of age, Mrs. Roose-
velt entered Columbia Presbyter-
ian Medical Center in New York
last Sept. 26 to be treated for
anemia and a lung congestion.
Though released after, treatment,
her condition did not respond.
She passed away early yesterday
evening in her New York apart-
ment.
Author, statesman, politician
and patriot, Eleanor Roosevelt
worked tirelessly at whatever she
undertook. A niece of Republean
President Theodore Roosevelt and
widow of the late President Frank-
lin Delano Roosevelt, she was
thrust Into public life in 1905,
when, at the age of 20, she mar-
ried FDR..
Painfully shy as a child and
orphaned at the age of 10. Anna
Eleanor aRoosevelt was packed off
to private schools in England for
her education. She often recount-
ed how insecure she felt, and how
she hoped her marriage to FDR
would erase that.
In 1933, Eleanor Roosevelt be-
came the First Lady in the White,
House. Almost 50 years of age,
she was determined to be useful
to her husband, and as a result,
she became a highly controversial,
figure, never content to fill the
traditional role of the White3
House hostess and let it go at
that.
She earned the undying ani-
mosity of many Washingtonians,E
on both sides of the political aisle,
and it was not until long after
s he departed the White House inl
1945, that they ceased to refer
to her as "Eleanor" in bitter and1
clipped syllables.1
And just as- her efforts during
FDR's life were on his behalf, so
were they on her own behalf upon
his death and for the remaining 17
years of her life.t
Always eager and' willing to
travel, she became perhaps Amer-
ica's most-beloved ambassador of
good will, travelling for Presidents
Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy

Nehru Asks
Parliament
For Support
By The Associated Press
NEW DELHI - The Chinese
broke a lull on the Himalayan
battle line yesterday with fresh
probing attacks.
Indians said the action appeared
to be a prelude to a resumption o
the Communist offensive.
Prime Minister Jawaharlal Ne-
hru rallied his people for a wai
to drive what he called the ex-
pansionist, imperialist-minded in-
vaders from 'the sacred soil of
India."
The Indian leader declared the
nation's freedom is at stake and
warned Parliament to brace for
a struggle that might go on for
a number of years.
East Frontier
The new Chinese attacks came
In the eastern end of the 2,500-
mile disputed frontier around Wa-
long, 15 miles from the Burma
border. A defense ministry spokes-
man said one Indian was killed,
two missing and an estimated 15
Communists were killed or wound-
ed.
Chinese troops tried to establish
themselves on the flank of Wa-
long, but an Indian counter-
attack dislodged them, the spokes-
man said.
The Reds' strategy, the spokes-
man said, appeared to be aimed
at bypassing Indian defenses
around Walong by going up the
jungle mountain slopes on both
sides.
Move South
The Chinese are moving down
from Tibet, directly to the north.
Peking's overtures for a nego-
tiated deal to divide up the dis-
puted territory made little im-
pression.
While Nehru spoke in Parlia-
ment, 3000 persons demonstrated
outside shouting and carrying ban-
ners demanding "no negotiations
with China."
Other Support
The India-China Friendship
Association announced its dis-
solution, and the leadership of
the Indian Communist Party has
closed ranks to back the Nehru
government, but a crackdown on
Communists was developing inside
India.
A bitter Indian statement de-
clared, "So long as Chinese con-
tinue to remain on India's soil by
force, it is sacrilegious to think
of friendship between the two
countries."
The association was founded in
the 1950's when Nehru and Red
China Premier Chou En-Lai were
exchanging messages of endear-
ment in promoting peaceful co-
existence.
India President Sarvepalli Rad-
hakrishnan said his nation's
"credulity and negligence" cost
the Indian army initial reverses.
He did not pinpoint the blame
and said the morale of the troops
was high.
Ask Troops Back
India also has told United Na-
tions Acting Secretary-General U
Thant it would like its troops
back from the Congo as soon as
possible.
They total 5000-6000. Nehru
said no definite date was fixed
for their return.

By The Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS - Brazil's
plan to turn Latin America into
a nuclear-free zone gained West-
ern support here yesterday as dele-
gates, continually citing the Cu-
ban crisis, appealed for United
Nations efforts to speed up dis-
armament talks.
Bolivia and Chile joined in spon-
soring the- Brazilian plan which
seeks negotiations to ban nuclear
weapons from Latin America. In-
formed sources said both Britain
and the United States would back
the proposal.

Brazilian delegate Afonso Arinos
de Melo Franco formally intro-
duced the plan in the General
Assembly's 110 -nation political
committee. On Tuesday Arthur H.
Dean, chief United States disarma-
ment negotiator, told the com-
mittee "we welcome the initiative
of the Brazilian representative."
Broadened
Originally, the Brazilian plan
included similar provisions for
Africa, but was later revised to
cover Latin America alone.
In return for recognition as a
nuclear free zone, the plan asks
Latin American countries to agree
not to manufacture or receive nu-
clear weapons. In addition it pro-
vides for removal of nuclear weap-
ons or carrying devices from these
countries, coupled with verifica-
tion guarantees.
While the committee continued
its debate, Dean conferred with
Soviet delegates on arrangements
to re-open the 18-nation disarma-
ment talks in Geneva on Monday.
Renew Plea
In preparation for the meeting,
the State Department yesterday
called anew for a speedy agree-
ment on an international treaty
to ban nuclear testing.
The State Department used
Wednesday's announcement by So-
viet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev
of and end to the present Russian

atmospheric test series as an oc-
casion to re-affirm the United
States position on a nuclear test
ban.
Verwoerd Hits
Boycott by UN
JOHANNESBURG UP) - South
African Prime Minister Hendrik F.
Verwoerd said last night the Unit-
ed Nations General Assembly's
vote of sanctions against South
Africa was hypocritical and will
be ineffective.
The assembly voted a trade boy-
cott Tuesday because of South
Africa's racial segregation policies
and recommended expulsion from
the international organization if
the sanctions fail.
Verwoerd reminded a local elec-
tion rally of his national party
that the major Western powers
had not joined in this vote. And
he added that even South Africans
who opposed his segregationist
government on other grounds were
rallying against the UN.
In a similar vein, Foreign Min-
ister Eric Louw told a news con-
ference in New York that a score
of African and Asian countries
and some Communist countries
have imposed their own trade boy-
cott for two years and the decrease
"amounts only to peanuts."

Poll Returns
Held in Doubt.
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON-Two days after
the national election polls closed,
several gubernatorial races and
one senatorial contest were still
in doubt, and some may involve
recounts.
In Minnesota, Democrat Lt. Gov.
Karl Rolvaag, with 619,733 votes,
slipped barely ahead of Republican
Gov. Elmer L. Andersen, who has
619,649 in the contest for the gov-
ernor's chair. Two small precincts
have yet to report.
Massachusetts' Republican Gov.
John A. Volpe has asked a re-
count of a gubernatorial tally
which defeated him by only 2,163
votes.
A 405-vote victory for Main's
GOP Gov. John H. Reed will draw
a request for a recount from his
opponent, Democrat Maynard C.
Dolloff, in that state's governor's
race.
Gov. F. Ray Keyser of Vermont
demands a recount of an election
which elected Democrat Philip H.
Hoff by 1200 votes.
A tight Senate race in South
Dakota gave a 201-vote margin to
Democrat George McGovern over
GOP Incumbent Sen. Joe Bottum.

View Result
of Elections,
WASHINGTON (4) - Organized
labor leaders maintained yester-
day that despite some notable
losses their political forces did
fairly well in Tuesday's election.
A spokesman at AFL-CIO head-
)quarters, asked for comment on
the outcome, said "nobody is
claiming this was a labor or liberal
victory, but nobody is unhappy
about the over-all results."
Unions, concede they took lick-
ings in Michigan, Pennsylvania
and Ohio where Republicans dis-
placed Democrats as governors,
but they claim they helped deliver
the better than 80 per cent voter
turnout in Los Angeles to insure
re-election of Gov. Edmund G.
Brown over Republican Richard M.
Nixon.
Mostly, however, the union
leadership was said to feel that
it contributed toward holding fast
the political lineup in Congress
for the Democrats, bucking the
tradition that the party in power
loses strength in non-presidential
year. Labor, as a result, expects to
continue to make modest legisla-
tive gains.
AFL-CIO president G eo r ge
Meany and United Auto Workers
president Walter Reuther have
been feuding again on internal
policy matters, leading to renewed
rumors that Reuther may be con-
rsidering quitting the AFL-CIO
executive council or pulling his
union out of the federation.
Labor insiders very much doubt
such a split will develop.
Reuther's own prestige among
Democrats has taken somewhat
of a dip because Michigan Gov.
John B. Swainson, backed heavily
by the auto workers union, lost to
Republican George Romney.
