Rebellingg Convicts Still Holding Out After Four Days

BOSTON, LR - A seven-man committee, including two editors, prison officials and the president of the Boston Bar Association, conferred early today with the four rebel convicts at Massachu- sets State Prison, in efforts to end four-day stalemate.
 One committee member said the group had met with the re- bellious quartet in efforts to ob- tain release of five hostage guards and six other inmates held in a cell block at the old prison since early Tuesday.
 Earlier four grim prison off cials went into the prison from the warden's office for a two-hour stay but declined to give any de- tails of the trip.
 The original demand of the con- victs was for car to carry them to freedom. Warden O'Brien re- piled nothing doing," posi- ton he still holds.
 Dr. Merlin and Father Harti- gan, prison doctor and prison chaplain, said the crief gripe of the rebellious quartet is "their lack of hope because of the length of their sentences and their inability to look forward to ever being free men even in their old age" None of the men has less than 25 years to serve.
 Under an agreement with their captors, the five officer hostages are being brought hot meals. O'Brien said the meals will con- tinue as long the the prisoners get no part of 1t.

Congressional Leaders Predict Fast
 Action on Statehood For Territories

WASHINGTON, tR R- The Sen- ate Insular Affairs Committee Will meet Tuesday for a prelim- mary discussion on legislation to make Alaska and Hawaii states.
 Chairman Murray O-MonD told reporters yesterday the meet ing will determine the nature of hearings, if any, which will be held on the combined Alaska Hawaii bill he has introduced on behalf of himself and 25 other senators.
 Murray said because of new members on the committee if might be necessary to have ''brief hearings-a day or two on each" of the two territories.
 He said if hearings are to be held they will be conducted by the full Senate Insular Affairs Committee rather than by it's Territories subcommittee.
 If the committee decides next Tuesday hearings are to be held, he said it also will be decided then who will be permitted to testify.
 The statehood legislation also appears to be headed for speedy action by the House Insular Af- fairs Committee.
 Chairman Engle O-Calif) of the House committee yielded in his desire for separate legisla- ton for the two territories.

The Nome nugget., 1955-01-21

With Chairman Murray D- Mont and 25 co-sponsors backing a joint bill in the Senate, Engle told a reporter he felt that he would be hitting into double play to proceed with separate bills in the House.
 Both Engle and Murray have predicted quick committee action on statehood legislation.
 Engle joined Delegate Earring ton (R-HawaiD in introducing a separate Hawaii statehood bill on the opening day of the new Con- gress. Today he planned to intro duce a combined Hawaii Alaska measure.
 {. He told reporter his change in strategy was dictated by a de- sire to avoid the same impasse" as last year, when the House pass ed a Hawaii only bill, the Sen ate combined Hawaii Alaska bill and the House Rules Commit tee baked at sending the two measures to conference.
 Meanwhile, Mrs. Harrington an- nounced her intention to intro duce new Hawaii statehood bill "as precaution and as pro- lection to Hawaii"

Porgy & Bess
Drows Ire
Of Scion

WASHINGTON, d.. c. (CNS)-
A Congressman from New York
Ralph w. Gwinn, Republican,
issued a rather belated blast this
week against the sending OF
"Porgy and Bess" overseas under
our cultural exchange program.
Stated Gwinn: II have lust
learned that Congress voted
$685., 900 to send 'Porgy and Bess'
to some of the capitals OF the
world as one of the top choices OF
American culture.
IL doubt il 10 per cent OF the
members (of Congress) knew OF
such an appropriation. ] never
dreamed that | was voting for any
such appropriation to finance such
q program OF presenting America
before the peoples Of the world,
some OF whom are very critical
and hostile and even full Of hat
red toward us.
"This play, in my judgment,
confirms their worst impressions
of us.
Despite Gwinn's blast, the
countries where "Porgy and Bess"
has played have received II high
ly. The general attitude is that
the musical shows how in the
u. S. all races have opportunity
in the arts.

Lenox, executive director of the
Detroit Council of Churches, call
for "all men OF good will, of
whatever race or creed or station
in life, to keep all New Years
I've celebrations both temperate
and controlled"
These leaders point out that
THE hours just preceding the
dawn OF q new year should be
aiven 10 thoughtful exsmina-
ton of our own lives.
There is no rational basis"
they explain, for the irrespon-
sible conduct which often ac-
companies New Years celebra-
ticns and which frequently re-
suits in domestic tragedy, traf-
fic accidents and deaths.
The Council administrators
urge members OF all commun'
ions to attend New Years serv'
ices in their respective churches
and the congregational and par.
ish parties which, in many
churches, will precede them"
They commend 1.-The families
that will gather in homes with
friends for an evening of good
fellowship and recreation free OF
oil objectional features"
DR.. Cole and DR.. Lenox praised
