in six years in December.
The convention call was an

day meeting of about so top
party leaders which was de-
scribed in a news release as 1.-THE
most self-critical in the party's
history"
Most of the self-criticism at

late Russian leader.

It added that questioning by
immigration officials of the five
who returned was "unjustifled
in itself" and conducted in IAN

Interference Denied
"Theres is no reason to speak
of any interference on the part
of USSR representatives at the
United Nation" the note said.
Moscow previously had
termed quite natural" Mr..
Sobolev's presence at New York's

Stevenson Raps
AT Eisenhower

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3 up,
-Adlai Stevenson mixed sharp
criticism of the Eisenhower ad-
ministration on desegregation
and other issues with cheerful
handshaking in a stepped-up
campaign to win CALIFORNIA;
presidential primary.
He charged, during the course
lof IL appearances here yester-
day. that the President has not
used the prestige of his Office to
help carry out the Supreme Court
decision striking down separate
public schools for white and
Negro students.
He told longshoremen on the
waterfront they won't see better
protection for labor. better hous-
ing and better health benefits
until you return to Washington

tion."
An outdoor might in Italy
audience applauded his demand
for amendment of the McCar-
Iran-Walter immigration Act
which he said Disseminated
against Mediterranean peoples.
Democrats supporting his in
tense fight with Senator Ke-
fauver for the States SO national
convention delegates summed up
the days work as gratifying.
Winding up the one-day whirl-
wind tour of San Francisco. the
former Illinois Governor left by
plane last night to attend the
funeral Of Senator Alben Bark
ley in Paducah, KY. He plans to
resume his vigorous 12-day Cali
fornia schedule in Los Angeles
tomorrow.
Mr.. Stevenson concentrated on
civil rights and social legislation
to fit his audiences. He spoke
chiefly to Negro, Spanish-Ameri-
can, Italian. Chinese and labor
groups. Crowds ranged anywhere
from so to 5000 by police esti-
mate.

cratic ticket devoted heavy part

Representative Hope. of Kan
Isas. ranking Republican on the
Agriculture Committee. says he
intends to force the issue when
amendments to the legislation
are considered this afternoon. by
moving to strike out the prohibi-
ton against the advance pay
ments contained in the bill.
Representative Mccormack. of
Massachusetts,. Democratic lead
er in the House, says the vote
will be close.
The House went into session at
III o'clock this morning, to in
sure completion of action on the
bill today.
The soil-bank payment plan is
the sole issue in controversy.
Compromise Likely
There was some opposition to a
provision that would make sup
ports on feed grains mandatory
and raise the support level, but
compromise modifying the price
range that would satisfy every
body wnS in prospect.
The new bill, a substitute for
that vetoed by President Eisen-
hover two weeks ago, reached
the floor of the House yesterday
and the backing accorded by
both Republicans and Democrats
in two hours debate indicated
easy passage when the final vote
is taken.
Some members questioned
whether a new corn surplus would
not be produced by the admirli-
STATIONS action in giving sup
ports to corn grown in the COM
mercial corn area without re-
gard to acreage controls.

Says
He's Smeared
On Integration

PANAMA CITY. Fla, May
R.-Senator Kefauver says
what he calls a smear cam
paign" may be shaping up
against him in Florida.
The Tennesseean told audi
ences yesterday and last night
at several towns in northwest
Florida that he had heard a
rumor to the effect that he had
said recently he would favor the
us of Federal troops to enforce
Indignation in public schools.
Both Senator Kefauver and
Adlai Stevenson are seeking
Florida's support in their cam
paigns for the Democratic pres
idential nomination. A slate of
delegates with % votes at the
Democratic national convention
will be chosen in the States
presidential preference primary
May 30.
Seeks Truthful Level
Senator Kefauver said he
wanted to keep the Florida pri-
mary contest on "a truthful
level" and added:
II assume that my opponent
despite his Incorporate re-
marks after his initial defeats
in the primaries this year
would also rather keep the
campaign on a truthful level.
However, since he would be
the direct beneficiary of any
smear campaign on me, he must
shoulder his part Of the re-
sponsibility."
Senator Kefauver said he
would oppose the use of Federal
troops in the matter of integra-
ton.
Pamphlet Reported
Senator Kefauver said the ru-
NOR probably originated with an
incorrect account of a news con-
ference in Florida in February.
