Boston, Mass. Oct. II - John
Hughes, special correspondent for
the Christian Science Monitor in
report filed last week from
Nairobi, Kenya, in Africa said:
Multi racial government in Ken
va is being pulled between nom
whites on the one hand who feel
the process of integration is going
too slow and white extremists on
the other who are just as certain
it is going too fast.
A heritage of distrust has been
left by Mau Mau, the antiwhlte
terrorist organization. Militarily,
the movement is now under con-
troll, but the causes remain. These
must now be faced by this Brit
ish colony.
Tackling the job is a 16-man
Council of Ministers, composed of
British Colonial Office officials and
local politicians. Of these 13 are
white, two Indian, and one Afri-
| can.
A heartening sign in Kenya to-
day is the growth of moderate
opinion by both whites and non
whites which is recognizing that
the different races are compile
mentary to each other.
TEST NEXT YEAR
There are many white settlers
still strongly opposed to any AT
/ rican or Asian participation in
government.
These are marshaled mainly in
support of the Federal Independ-
ence Party, a highly vocal group
with white supremacy as its plat
form. The FTP denies it stands for
South African style apartheid, or
race segregation, but it's leader,
Leo VICAR, has recently conferred
with South African Government
leaders in Pretoria.
The bulk of white support ap-
pears at this stage, however, to Re
! for the United Country Party,
! which is a strong proponent OF
multi-racial government.
Each party claims its represents
the majority of white opinion.
There is no real method of gaug-
ing this support until a general
election next year when the parties
respective policies will be tested.
| However, at a recent Nalrobl
| CITY Council by-election, a candl-
date backing multi-racial govern
ment was swept to office over a
candidate opposing it.
QUICKEST ROUTE?
This appears to indicate strong
white support for multi-racial gov
ernment, prodded, undoubtedly by
the lesson of the Mau Mau re-
bellion. But anti-government set
tiers are vocal and aggressive in
their denunciations of integration
at the government level.
Many of Kenya's white settlers
are highly colorful individualists
never especially noted for their ca
+, pacity for political cooperation.
They have often been law unto
themselves on isolated farms.
But it is becoming obvious to
most of them here that $4,000
whites cannot afford political dis
unity in country of 5,500,OOO
Africans.
On the African side, most politi-
cal leaders appear to have accept
ed the concept that their quickest
road to advancement lies through
cooperation with the whites in
multi-racial government. How
ever, even the leaders are highly
resentful of the degree of repre-
sentation they have in govern
ment-one African minister among
sixteen.
The main problem facing these
leaders is whether they can con-
tain the ambitions of their people
| Most of Kenya's Africans are
"a primitive, agricultural, pagan
neople. Their nationalism is not
backed by the achievements OF
the centuries-old cultures which

Of more books by African authors

U. 5. Prosperity
Uhderscored
By Earnings
BY ED MORSE
AP Business writer

NEW YORK, July Is IT,
The Nations prosperity was un-
derscored this week by surging
income reports from big business.
Industrial output was strong.
Pay was high. Jobs were plenti-
ful.
Meanwhile. reports of a bump
er 1855 crop gave housewives
hope for lower food prices in the
future.
Spending in stores was at q
record rate for this time Of
year. Cut-price sales helped
many merchants sell more than
in the previous holiday-short
ened week.
In dollars, retail trade was
3 to z per cent higher than in
the like week q year ago. Dun q
Bradstreet estimated.
The boom looked rs solid as
ever. Economists scanned the
horizon for storm clouds and
came up with nothing new. Con-
cern continued about the mount
ing tide Of consumer debt.
Straws-in-the-wind were blowing
both ways on this question.
But there was nothing dubious
about the earnings reports from
the Nations giants Of business
and industry. They came like q
blare Of triumph.

US. 7th Fleet Standing g By to Evacuate Tachens
By SPENCER MOOSA

TAIPEH, Formosa, R-Com- munist guns on recently captured Yikiangshan belched in the direc- ton of the tense Tachens tonight but the Chinese Nationalist de- fense ministry reported all the shells landed in the sea.
 The combat-ready US. 7th Fleet stood by for possible orders to evacuate the Tachen Islands, 200 miles north of Formosa and eight miles south of Yikiangshan, but the US. Navy boss in the Pacific said Sunday such orders had not yet been given.
 The Tachens were fire bombed by Red bombers Sunday, tonight Communist guns hurled 32 shells toward the two offshore islands within 10 minutes, beginning at 8:25 pm
 The defense ministry reported all was quiet farther south in the Quemoy area.
 The 7th Fleet needed only ''go ahead" to begin an evacuation of the Tachens.
 However, Adm. Felix B. Stump, commander of the US. Pacific fleet, said on a quick visit to this Chinese Nationalist capital Sun day that an evacuation had not been ordered.
 ' Unconfirmed Chinese press re- ports said the garrison of 15,000 men was under defense ministry orders to prepare for a bitter stand if the Communists should attack before the evacuation takes place, as many observers here ex- pect them to do.
 Adm. Stump meanwhile was flying back to his Pearl Harbor headquarters after quick trip to Taipeh and an unheralded con ference with top American com manders in Tokyo.

Rep. Creuel Proposes Creation of
 Post of Alaska Business Manager
By JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, tR-A far-rea ching measure to create the post of a business manager for Alaska, who would have both appointive and administrative powers, was to be given to the territory's lawmakers today.
 Rep. Richard Greuel D-Fair- banks, majority floor leader, said he planned to introduce it in the House of Representatives Such a business manager, he explained, would be elected in joint session of the branches.
 Greuel listed what he said were the many advantages of the pro posal last night and said it was not new, but that the late con- gressional delegate Wickersham had also favored the idea.
 The main purpose, Greuel con- tinued, would be to create chain of command in territorial govern ment which will fix responsibility and create greater efficiency. I. would eliminate the present sys- tenn of administration by boards under which department directors and board members can ''pass the buck back and forth" he argued.
 With the second week of the session starting today, other bills were to be introduced, on top of last weeks record number. Only one has been passed by both branches and sent to Gov Heint- zleman, the one designating the willow ptarmigan as the terri tory's official bird.
 Greuel, explaining his business
