-Four Senators
Back D.C. Bid
Will Join PIeu
For Representation

Four Senators are slated to
testify this week in favor of a
proposed constitutional amend
ment that would give District
residents the right to vote for
President and Vice President
and national representatives.
The four are Senators RAN
dolph, Democrat of West Vir-
ginia, and Republicans Heating
of New York, Case of South
Dakota and Beall of Maryland.
The hearings are scheduled
for 2 pm. Wednesday before a
Senate Judiciary subcommittee.
Strong support of the meas
ure also is expected t. be
voiced by community leaders.
Among civic spokesman to
testify are District Commits
sioner Robert E. Mclaughlin;
E. K. Morris and Elwood Davis,
representing the Washington
Board of Trade, and Miss Sally
Butler of the General Fedora
ton Of Womf s Clubs. Others
are also EXP atd to appear
before the subcommittee.
Three Senators Sponsors
AS the amendment now reads
the District would be allowed
to send three representatives
to the House.
The measure is being spon-
sored by Senators Heating,
Case and Beall. Senator Beall
originally had felt that one
delegate to the House was suf-
f1cient, but he said yesterday
he will support the measure as
1t now stands If the committee
approves it.
THE most important thing
is to give the people of the
District the right to vote for
their national leaders," Senator
Beall said. II believe this is
most constructive legislation
and the proper way to pro-
ceed."
Senator Randolph said he
feels there lis overwhelming
support in the Congress" for
the amendment. He predicted
it will pass. To pass, a two
thirds vote is required in both
the House and Senate and then
three-quarters Of the states
must ratify the amendment
within seven years.
Awakening Seen
II think there has been an
awakening to the justice of
this proposal on the part of the
members of the Congress-" the
Senator said. Throughout the
States there appears to be a
realization of the inequity of
the situation in the District"
The amendment would pro-
vide national representation
but not home rule. A home
rule bill has passed the Senate
but is stymied in the House
District Committee.
Senator Heating also gave
the suffrage measure a chance
to win Senate approval before
adjournment.

speculation was that they would
lead to a meeting Of the
Security Council Monday or
Tuesday.
The United States linked
Moscow and Peiping to the
Communist fighting in Laos
and called for international
action unless the Reds cease
their activities.
In an official policy state
ment the State Department
accused Soviet Russia, Red
China and Communist North
Wet Nam Of Intervention in the
tiny Southeast Asian kingdom.
Full Support Pledged
The statement called on the
free world to rally to the aid
of Laos and pledged the full
support of the United States to
any action taken by the United
Nations in the situation.
The State Department state
ment pointed to evidence that
Outside Communist interview
ton exists" in Laos. It cited
supplies and military weapons
that it said could only come
from Communist territory and
a barrage Of propaganda from
Hanoi, Peiping and Moscow.
Also it emphasized that "the
military outbreak in Laos has
followed conferences in Mos
cow and Peiping between Ho
Chi-minh and Soviet and Chi
nese Communist leaders and
also conferences in Moscow be-
tween two members of the
North Wet Nam politburo and
Deputy Wet Nam politburo and
Mikoyan.
The announcement did not
specify whether the United
States will favor Laos plea for
troops in addition to the al
ready large-scale American
economic and small arms aid it
is now receiving.
Laos Extends Emergency
In Laos itself the government
extended state of emergency
throughout Laos IL provinces
from the S provinces where it
was first proclaimed August S.
The original proclamation fol.
lowed an increase in rebel guer-
rilla activities with alleged help
from North Wet Nam.
Laos charges that North Wet
Nam last Sunday opened up
with an artillery barrage to
support a new and more violent
attack.
Laos request for a U. N. emer-
gency force to repel what it
called aggression from Com
munist North Wet Nam threw
the U. N. into furious activity
on a normally quiet Saturday.
Council delegates consulted
among themselves. Messages
flew back to home governments

TURNBERRY, Scotlan d,

Arrangements for new top
level United States-French
talks were begun as Mr..
MISUNDERSTANDING in Scot
land-kept in close touch with
events in commissioned
ened Laos. A spokesman said
Mr.. Eisenhower was concerned
about the situation.
Gen. de Gaulle replied
promptly to a message from
Mr.. Eisenhower asking him to
come to Washington. The
President extended the invita-
ton In two warmly worded
communications to Gen. de
Gaulle yesterday when he was
leaving Paris.
Gen. de Gaulle replied:
II very much hope to be able
to go and see you in Washing
ton. 1t will in any case be as
soon as I can"
Praises Meetings
He said his own feelings
about the exhaustive confer
ences in France paralleled Mr..
Eisenhower's. He called their
meetings "a wonderful event
from all points of view a
great date in the history Of the
relations between our two
countries"
Gen. de Gaulle said the talks
resulted in "a meeting of the
minds" and he added, THE
French people, as you were able
to feel, grasp thoroughly and
with joy the meaning and scope
of our meetings"
Mr.. Eisenhower and Gen.
de Gaulle agreed in Paris on a
firm stand in negotiations with
the Russians on Berlin and
other European questions. Mr..
Eisenhower also assured France
Of full consultation in decisions
affecting the Atlantic alliance
to meet French demands for
equal stature with the United
States and Britain.
Paris Asks Algerian Aid,

remains. The French want full
United States and British sup
port for their campaign to put
down the long rebellion of ma

United States and Britain have
avoided this for fear of Offend

port the rebellion.
Gen de Gaulle is expected
soon to announce a new pro-
gram for Algeria, obviously with
the hope it will win full back
ing Of his allies.
