Khrushchev Bubbles
Before Polish Crowd

KATOWICE, Poland, July is
(AP). - Soviet Premier Nikita
s. Khrushchev, tired and worn
and stammering, pridefully told
a welcoming crowd in this min
ing and industrial center to-
day II was a miner, too."
Kotowice, sometimes called
the Polish Pittsburgh, was the
first stop on Mr.. Khrushchev's
tour of the country. He arrived
in Warsaw yesterday.
In his formal speech to the
crowd Of about 5000 at the
railroad station, Mr.. Khru-
shchev stammered and slut
tered so badly he could scarcely
be understood.
To the establishment Of &C
companying newspapermen, a
SileSian miners band struck up
STARS and Stripes Forever" as
Wladyslaw Gomulka, leader Of
the Polish Communist Party,
stepped out of the station
ahead Of Mr.. Khrushchev into
the square packed with Com
munist Party faithful.
After speeches by local lead
ers, police started to move the
crowd out Of the square in or
der for the dignitaries to reach
their cars.
But Mr.. Khrushchev, with
his straw hat pushed back on

his head, walked to q micro
phone, grabbed it, and began
a sort Of babble.
Alternately laughing and
stammering, he told the crowd
he had been a general on the
first Ukrainian front during
World War II and visited Ka-
towice when it was liberated
from the Germans.
His performance started Mr..
Gomulka and other officials on
the platform to laughing,
though some tried to hide their
laughter behind their hands.
Raising his fists for empha-
sis, Mr.. Khrushchev declared:
81 worked like many of you
here. I was a worker when ]
was young"
Most of his remarks were
unintelligible. When he fin
ished he got into his limousine
with Mr.. Gomulka and set out
for an afternoon-long tour of
mines and factories in Silesia.
Mr.. Khrushchev's visit is
aimed at showing the solidar-
ity Of the Polish and Soviet
parties. A group of high Polish
officials saw him of when he
left Warsaw this morning, but
no great public sendoff was
staged.

Senator Case, Republican Of
South Dakota, today promised
to test Senate sentiment on a
constitutional amendment to
give Washingtonians a vote for
President and Vice President.
In a surprise move, the for
mer chairman of the Senate
District Committee said he
would substitute his amend
ment for the home rule bill
pending on the floor.
This home rule measure calls
for an elected mayor. nine
councilmen and a non-voting
delegate to the House of Rep
resentatives. 1t was reported by
the District Committee after
Senator Case, torn between this
and alternate suffrage meas
ures, had left the meeting.
Senator Case will substitute
a proposal to give the District
three non-voting delegates in
the House. The same number of
electoral votes for the PreSi-
dent and Vice President would
be allotted Washington under
the measure.
Requires Ratification
This will be the first floor
test for such an amendment,
requiring ratification. by legis-
Iatures of three-fourths of the
States within seven years if it
should clear Congress.
Although this kind of
amendment has rallied almost
unanimous community support,
the Senate Judiciary Commit
tee never has reported a bill
following this path to suffrage.
Senator Case hoped to force

Spouse from his Senate col
leagues was no more lukswarm
than their apparent reaction
to the mayor-council bill, on
which debate opened this after
noon.

Eisenhower
Planning No
Action Now
By GARRETT d. HORNER
Star stan Writer

President Eisenhower made it
clear today that he hopes the
steel strike can be settled with
out invoking emergency provi-
sions Of the Taft-Hartley Act.
The President emphasized at
a news conference that he be-
lieves such labor disputes should
be settled through free" COL
lective bargaining-and that too
much Government pressure
would make the bargaining mot
free"
He noted, however. that the
Taft-Hartley Act empowers the
President to seek a court in
junction for an 80-day cooling
of period whenever a strike
creates an emergency affecting
the national health or safety.
He said those emergency con-
ditions do not prevail yet. But
he warned that obviously the
country would face a serious
situation" If the strike goes on
until all stockpiles of steel are
used up.
Won't Discuss Time
The President refused to
speculate on how long it might
be until the strike interfered
with defense production.
He rejected the idea that he
could have done any more than
he has done to try to head of
the strike that shut down most
Of the Nations steel mills last
midnight.
A reporter asked him If, look
ing back, he thought it might
have been wiser for tim to take
more action such as appointing
a fact-finding board.
With a quick no." the Presi.
dent replied that If he thought
he could have done better he
would have done something
else.
He said he believed he had
done what should have been
done in urging craftsmanship
by both labor and industry
leaders, and that they con-
tinue negotiating for a reason
able settlement.
Offer Of Help Accepted
Mr.. Eisenhower noted that
his suggestion late yesterday
that the negotiators call for
assistance Of the Federal Medi-
alton and Cancellation Service
had been accepted promptly.

dent of the. United Steelwork-
ers of America, urged the

in the steel industry.
Mr.. Eisenhower said today

He replied directly to Mr..
McDonald's suggestion on June
81 that he believed Congress
had acted wisely in limiting the
authority for naming fact-find-
ing boards in labor disputes to
emergencies affecting the ma
tional health or safety.
The President countered
then with an appeal to both
labor and management to con-
tinue bargaining without a
strike until a new contract was
agreed upon.
This appeal brought a two
week postponement of the
strike deadline, originally June
80.
When the negotiating ses-
sions finally broke up without
any progress late yesterday,
Mr.. Eisenhower emphasized in
a public statement that failure

slight, but much-needed, net

Yesterday was the first time
since the massive resistance

laws were invalidated that Vir-
ginians had an opportunity to
express themselves at the polls.
Two years ago the picture in
Alexandria was opposite of
what it appears to be today.
In 1857 Delegate James M.

OF massive resistance who has
become Gov. Almonds most
outSpoken and cauStic critic,
rang up a substantial victory
over a moderate who had the
active support of Mr.. Boothe
on a platform urging preserva-
ton Of public schools. This year
Mr.. Thomson took a leading
role in the fight to defeat Mr..
Boothe.
The debates were character
lied by fist wavings and acrid
charges between the candi-
dates. Mr.. Boothe was among
the 20-1S vote majority which
successfully steered the Perrow
program through the Senate
last April. Mr.. Beverley op-
posed that plan, proposing in
stead a three-School system

studied but rejected by the
