New Coast Guard
Recruiting Program

Draft-eligible teen-agers are in
for a bit of good news today. U. S.
Coast Guard officials announced a
new recruiting program whereby a
young man serves only six months
on active duty.
Purpose of the new plan is two
fold to build a strong Coast
Guard Reserve and to let young
sters take care of their service OBJ
legation with a minimum of active
duty time. The latter will reduce
long interruption from college or
will facilitate other post-high
school plans.
Under the new program, high
school students or graduates be-
tween the ages Of IL and 1S1a who
qualify will be enlisted for eight
years in the Coast Guard Reserve.
In addition to the six months of
active duty training, Seven-and-a-
half years will be spent in a local
Reserve unit. The Coast Guard is
the only sea-going service to have
such a plan at present.
At the Cape May IN. j. Receiv-
ing Center, recruits will undergo
three months of boot training, one
month of rife and other small arms
work, one north aboard ship, and
one month ashore for advanced
non-rated training.
Young men who are interested
but have not yet graduated from
high school may enlist and have
their six months active duty post
poned until they are graduated.
Those who fall into this category,
however, must not be over 20 years
old.
To spread the word about this
unprecedented plan, Third Coast
Guard District officials have sent
Is enlisted recruiters into the field
They will set up local recruiting
offices throughout eastern Penn
sylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut
Delaware and eastern New York
Once established, recruiters will
make their presence widely known
and handles queries on the new
program. Immediate queries will
be answered by the Coast Guard
Reserve Recruiting offices at either

FRIDAY DEADLINE SET FOR JUN. TEAM TO SEE BUDAPEST

UNITED NATIONS, NY, R- Despite word that Dag Hammar- skiold plans to go to Budapest in 10 days, the LIN Assembly today adopted a US. sponsored resolu- tion calling again on Hungary to let in other JUN. observers to in- vestigate conditions generally in the revolt-torn country.
 The resolution, approved 54-10, asked Hungary and Russia to give the observers the green light by Dec. 2. The two Communist gov ernments for the past month have steadfastly refused even to con- slider admission of a JUN. team for anything other than distribution of relief supplies.
 The Assembly voted at special session, lasting beyond midnight, at which the JUN. secretary gen. eral announced he hoped to arrive in Budapest Dec. Is for three day visit. He proposed the trip three weeks ago to help set up distribution of JUN. relief.
 Final acceptance of Hammar- skjold's plans was awaited from Hungary's pro-Moscow govern ment. Informed sources said ap- proval appeared certain.

 Where yesterday the streets of Port Said were all but deserted of Egyptians, sidewalks cafes today had tables and chairs out again and the general feeling was one of excited anticipation.

DEMONSTRATIONS IN BUDAPEST CONTINUE FOR 2nd STRAIGHT DAY
By ENDRE MARTON And ERIC WAHA

BUDAPEST R-Hungarian po- lice, acting on Russian orders, broke up mass demonstration in front of the US. embassy today.
 The police used their rifle butts in an assault on a crowd of about 40O-men, women and children who had gathered before the em- bassy shouting:
 Down with the AMI Secret Poiice) :. No more demonstra- tions .. Down with the govern ment l"
 American officials estimated al least two truckloads of the demonstrators were carted off by the police. Witnesses said some were children. Several of inc Hungarians were seen 10 fall to the ground.
 Hundreds of Hungarian women had congregated in the streets for the second consecutive day in mourning for insurgents killed in the anti Communist rebellion.
 Two bursts of machinegun fire were heard, but the scene of the shooting could not be located.
 Persistent rumors floated around Budapest that new general strike would be called tomorrow.
 Some women massed in front of the British legation. but were chased away by two huge Rus sian T-54 tanks. Tanks and ar- mored cars forestalled efforts of group of women 10 parade in front of the Petoefi monu- ment.
 The crowd which converged on the US. embassy sought to send a delegation inside, but Hungar- ian policemen required the Amer jeans to lock the doors.
 The Russians moved more tanks and armored cars into the city as a precaution, but ordered Hun garian soldiers and police to han dle the job of dispensing the women.
 The women again marched with bouquets. flags and black wreaths of mourning.
 The center of todaY's demon stration again today was Peteofi Square. on a bank of the Dan ube in the center of town. where there is a monument to the Hungarian poet of the l848 rev olution. Sandor Peteofi.
 As the women approached the square they were blocked from approaching the monument by seven Russian tanks and about the same number of armored cars.
 Halted, the women sang the na- tional anthem, God Bless the Hungarians," holding high their flags and bouquets of red. white and green.
 The Russians finally allowed three women from about a dozen groups to go to the monument and lay their flowers and flags at the foot of the pedestal holding a bronze figure of Peteofi. his right hand raised in the oath: We shall no longer be slaves"

STEVENSON SAYS HE WILL NOT RUN AGAIN
Scramble Seen For '56 Demo Nomination
 By JACK BELL

WASHINGTON, R-Adlai E. Stevenson's announcement he will not seek a third chance at the presidency opened the way today to a scramble for the Democratic nomination in 1860.
 Stevenson, defeated by Presi- dent Eisenhower by about 10 mil lion votes in last months election, said in a statement yesterday: "I will not run again for the presi- dency." He said he will resume private law practice in Chicago in January.
 The twice defeated Demo- cratic candidate said his inter est will Continue undiminshed" in the party which gave him its top nomination in 1852 and again in 1856.
 He said he had accepted mem- bership on an advisory group be- ing set up by the Democratic Ma tional Committee to counsel on a party legislative program.
 Stevenson's announcement did not bring similar renunciation of political ambitions by his vice presidential running mate, Sen. Estes Kefauver.
 Asked if he. too. might be in a mood 10 remove himself from consideration for inc 1880 pres idential nomination. Kefauver replied:
 T am only in the mood 10 be the best senator here that l know how 10 be-"
 Kefauver said he is glad Ste venson will continue party activ- ity. He said he thinks Stevenson can perform great service" in helping build constructive, i'm aginative and searching opposi- ton" to the Republicans--a task which Stevenson blocked out for the Democrats yesterday.
 Kefauver's friends expect the Tennessee senator to bid again for the top nomination in 1860.
 stevenson's withdrawal makes many Democratic governors and senators potential candidaies for the 1860 nomination.
 And four years hence. there is likely 10 be a free-for-all for the prize because Eisenhower is barred by the Constitution from third term.
 Apart from Kefauver, only Sen Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas, the senate's majority leader, is re- garded as a standout possibility among southerners for the Dem ocratic nomination.
 Newly elected senators who may get a chance include Joseph S. Clark Pa, Gov. Frank Laushe Ohio and some others.
 Among sitting senators, Albert Gore (Tenn) John Kennedy Mass) and Hubert Humphrey Minn) are possibilities.
 The list of Democratic govern ors who might bid for the nomin- ation includes G. Mennen Will Hams CMich), Robert B. Meyner N.JJ, Frank Clement CTenn) and
 rst-
