Dulles Outlines Compromise Plan
 To Avert Violence in Suez Crisis

? WASHINGTON, R-Secretary of State Dulles has outlined a possible compromise plan for ending the Suez Canal dispute by placing the waterway under in- ternational operation while fully protecting Egypt's legitimate in- terests."
 On the basis of statements made by Dulles in a special radio-TV report Friday night, the United States is relying on moral force' rather than military measures and a forthcoming 24-nation conference to work out settle ment of the problem posed by Egypt's recent seizure of the vital canal.
 Under the plan Dulles sketched, Egypt would be assured of "a fair and reasonable income" from the traffic thru the canal and ap- parently it's ownership of the waterway would be recognized. But Egypt would have to agree to operation of the canal by an international agency.
 Dulles spoke to the nation from the White House several hours after returning from urgent Lon don talks on the Suez crisis. In introducing the secretary, Presi- dent Eisenhower described him self as "vastly disturbed" by Egypt's seizure action. It was the Presidents first formal TV ap- pearance since his operation.
 Although much of Dulles talk was conciliatory in tone, there were instances when he spoke sharply of the seizure, terming it "an angry act of retaliation against fancied grievances He also said Nasser's action could not be allowed to "go unchallenged." |"
 Dulles said some people" had advocated immediate forcible ac- tion" after Nasser seized the ca nal a week ago. Dulles said such action would have violated Unit ed Nations principle. Fled to widespread violence e,' and en- dangered world peace.

Permit Granted For Nuclear Power
 Plant in Michigan

WASHINGTON R-The Atom ic Energy Commission Saturday granted conditional" permit for construction of nuclear power plant near Monroe, Mich. Proposals for construction of the plant, a fast neutron breed CT" type, has been criticized on grounds that it might prove un- safe.
 However, the AEC said that be- fore an operating permit is is sued the commission must be thoroly satisfied the reactor can be operated without undue risk to the health and safety of the public"
 The commission said it notified the Power Reactor Development O., of Detroit, private organi- zation which was granted the permit, that it believes the safety problems "can be resolved within reasonable time"
 The development company is composed of 26 industrial con cerns, more than half of which are utility companies.
 The AEC permit specified that tho afor,in y,o,x,o,- y,lopt ha COy1 structed no later than Dec. Is, 1860.
 The plant will be designed to produce 100000 kilowatts of cleo trical power. The power will be distributed by the Detroit Edison Co.,, one of the members of the development company.

Hawaii Governor Praises Plan to Broaden Powers
 Of Territorial Legislatures

WASHINGTON, R-Cov. Sam uel Wilder King of Hawaii today give his support to a proposal to broaden the powers of territorial legislatures.
 The Senate Interior Committee, at the request of Sen. Goldwater, recently instructed its staff to draft bill to give the Hawaii and Alaska legislatures an authority equal to that of the state legisla- lures. The measure is expected to be introduced in the session of Congress opening next Jan. 2
 q think it is excellent" said King. "One of the present diff culties is that amendment of the Organic Acts of the territories is required for changes in such things as land administration and the tenure and pay of judges"
 Amendments to the Organic Acts require congressional action. Congress usually acts on dozens of such changes each year, usual ly as result of resolutions adopt ed by the territorial legislatures.
 Under the Goldwater proposal, the legislatures could take action without congressional review sub iect only to the veto power of the governor.
 "The easy solution would be to grant statehood" said King
 King is here for week of con- ferences with federal officials.

Maryland Votes

A real grudge fight for one Of Mary
lands seats in the United States Senate
appears assured today on the strength
OF Millard E. Tydings' popular-vote vic
tory over George P. Mahoney in the
Democratic primary. Senator John Mar
shall Butler, Republican incumbent, who
ouSted Mr. Tydings in an anythinggoe
battle in 1850, won his denomination
without important opposition.
AS expected, the Tydings- Mahoney
race was close one. The former Sen
ator, entering the contest only after Mr..
Mahoney had been rated as the clear
favorite, laid stress throughout the cam
paign on the usefulness of his long ex-
perience in public Office and his acquaint-
ance with the national and international
problems facing Government today. 1t
was the one area in which he had an
unquestioned advantage over his oppon-
ent, always strong votegetter in Mary
land but never winner in his bids for
major Office. Whether the Democrats
can close ranks after this intra- party
battle may we'll determine the November
result Actually, no Democrat has won
Statewide election since 1916 and any,
thing less than party solidarity this fall
could be fatal.
Aside from the Tydings -Mahoney
fight, principal national interest in the
Free State voting centered on the show
ing made by Senator Kefauver in his
bid for Maryland's Democratic National
Convention support. Without indorSe-
ment by the State Democratic organiza-
ton, which he had in 1852, the Senator
won yesterday by approximately 2-to-1
margin over an uninStructed slate 1t
was not, however, as impressive victory
rs he scored four years ago and hardly
adds to the Tennessean's prestige. With
President Eisenhower unopposed, Demo-
cratic registration exceeded Republican
by $4,000 to $4,000. Thus, Senator
Kefauver's margin of popular votes over
Mr.. observation-disclosures 2 to WAS
neither surprising nor reliably indicative
of what the vote will be in November.

To Avoid Confusion

The Senate has passed and sent to
the House bill which would prevent
recurrence of the confusion which re-
suited from Washington's return to
standard time ahead of the rest of the
country last year. Under present law,
daylight saving time in the District
ends on the last Sunday in September,
whereas the clocks elsewhere are not
changed back to regular time until the
last Sunday in october. The law ought
to be amended so as to coordinate local
daylight-saving time with the schedule
prevailing outside of Washington.
While Congress is about it, it would
be good idea to go even further than
the Senate bill, which sets specific date
for ending the DIST period. 1t would be
better to empower the Commissioners to
adjust the daylight-saving period to con-
form with generally adopted opening and
closing dates, whatever they might be-.
Had the law been made more flexible in
this respect at the outset there would
have been no need now for additional
legislation Of this minor sort.
