Gen. Nathan F. Twining,
taking sharp issue with critics
OF national defense policies,
says he sees no reason the
United States cannot maintain
an overall military superiority
over, the Soviet Union in the
1905.
The chairman Of the Joint
Chiefs of staff told the De-
tense Orientation Conference
Association last night that he
would mot for one minute
deny" that the Russians have
made great progress in the de-
velopment of long-range mis-
siles and strategic bomberS.
But he challenged the valid
ity of predictions that a $50
called gap" is coming when the
USSR will possess an over
whelming nuclear superiority.
Disputes Suggestions
He declared:
II believe that it is erroneous
to compare what the SovietS
might have in 1862 with what
We feel certain we will have at
the same date.
1--WE are still only at the
threshold Of the missile age.
There are so many break
thorughs which could occur
at any time which could sim
pity and expedite the produc-
ton of long-range missiles and
air defense weapons that no
one can predict today with ac-
curacy what we will have to-
morrow"
Gen. Twining mentioned no
critics by name. But among
those who have hit hardest at
our national defense policies
and posture are Democratic
Senator Symington of Missouri,
former President Truman and
1t. Gen. James NJ. Gavin, for
mer Army Research and De-
velopment chief who retired
last spring because of differ
ences with his Pentagon supe-
riorS.
U. S. Stands by Friends
The jos chairman licked off
a list of American military ac-
complishments in the past year
and made these assertions in
regard to recent international
crises:
/. If the United States had
not landed troops in Lebanon
in July, that Middle East coun-
try undoubtedly would have
been lost to the Western camp.
I'VE demonstrated our willing
ness to go to the aid of a friend
and we were successful" he
said.

SfeeIWorkers
Reject Foes
OF Mcdonald

ATLANTIC CITY. N. j.. Sept.
20 (AP).-The United Steel
workers presented a united
front to the basic steel industry
today after voting unanimous
confidence in their leader and
crushing opposition to his pro-
gram.
David J. Mcdonald, 55-year-
old USW president, emerged
from the ninth constitutional
convention with tight control
over the IL million member
union.
When the five-day conven-
ton opened Monday MIR. Nc
Donald's leadership in the Ma
tion's third largest union was
being questioned in some
quarters.
Throughout the convention
which ended yesterday the
1928 delegates, with only a few
exceptions, stood solidly behind
Mr.. Mcdonald. beating down
the opposition at every turn
and finally recommending ex-
pulsion for the protest commit
tee leaders.
Expulsion to Be Fought
The opposition was headed
by Donald C. Rarick, a McKeeS-
port (Pa) mill worker.e He
said he and others in his COM
mittee will f hit the expulsion
move.
In its final session, the union
adopted several resolutions call
ing for Improvements in the
existing health and welfare pro-
gram.
One recommended a broad
study of the health plan and
suggested setting up union
operated hospitals and clinics
| in areas where the study would
show a need for them. The
resolution said:
"We are confident that a
united and determined men,
bership can win the goal of full
medical security for all steel
workers through the process OF
collective bargaining"
This was indication that the
unions medical program would
be a major point in next years
contract negotiations.
some SUCCESS NOkeu
The resolution said the union
has succeeded through discus
sions in limiting some recent
rate increases of existing health
plans "but by no means are We
completely satisfied with the
reasons given for the skyrocket-
ing costs of our disqualification
and medical care programs.
The resolution was one OF
some 5000 acted on by the
delegates, many Of them de-
handing a wage increase and
more benefits.
other resolutions passed on
the closing day included re-
quest for a minimum wage OF
at least $1.25: elimination OF
the Taft Hartley and all right
to-vork laws, and urged all
nations to ban nuclear bomb
tests.
The union also blamed Con-
gress and the confused and
weak leadership" Of the Eisen-
hover administration for racial
violence in both the north and
south.

But the colony's House of Rep
resentatives voted unanimously on
Aug. to ask for independence by
April 2, 1860.
Prime Minister Alhaji Balewa
called on all Nigerians to threat
the independence campaign as a
national issue"
Britain first began moving into
Nigeria in 1861 and the colony was
proclaimed in January 1914.
Limited Sovereignty
The present constitution, giving
the colony limited internal self
government, went into effect on
Oct. l, 1854.
1t set up federal government
the House Of Representatives in
Lagos, presided over by the Brit
ish governor general, and regional
governments and legislatures In
each of the colony's four regions.
A conference with the British
government was held in the sum-
mer of 1857 to try to work out
constitution for an independent
federation of Nigeria inside the
commonwealth.
Colonial Secretary Alan Lesnox-
Boyd announced publicly at the
conference that the British govern
ment will consider with sym
pathy" any request by the Niger
ians for full independence. But he
refused to commit Britain to any
hard and fast date.
Diverse People
One of the chief problems caus-
ing Britain to hold back remains
that of the diverse national and
racial groups making up the pop
ulation.
The north is largely inhabited
by Hausa Moslems and is less ad-
vanced that the rest of the coun-
try. The southern population is
mainly Christian Or pagan. The
Hausas fear the southerners will
try to dominate the federation once
the British have gone.
The racial feeling resulted in
bloody rioting at the northern cap
ital of Kano in May 1853, in which
81 were killed and more than 200
injured.

What Speaker Rayburn is
up against is the cold fact
that the House by about

the record. when it gets a
chance at a labor bill it
makes 1t more punitive. An

High-LeveI Cooperation Necessary
To Check About Political Subotooe

There seems to be no pros
spect for the Kennedy-Ive
labor reform bill in the
House but throat cutting
party politics.
Two men conceivably could
pull 1t out: President Eisen-
hover and Speaker Rayburn.
II they would give this issue
the kind Of cooperation they
have given each other on for
eign policy measures. they
might get the bill the country
wanted and decent elements
in labor-after initial reluc-
tance-accepted.
The price to the President
would be more trouble with
his party which is already in
revolt against his decision TO
keep sherman Adams.
This is because a moderate
labor bill on the statute books
passed by a Democratic Con-
gress and signed by the Re-
publican President would go
far toward eliminating from
the fall campaign what looks
like the last viable Republi-
can issue. That is the reason
Republicans. aided by Labor
