Move Against Talk to Legislature
Called Sign of Nixon Contoinment

Not only might this embar-
rass them in their tax fight,
but it just possibly could
show that Gov. Rockefeller
truly has that appeal for
liberal Democrats and inde-
pendents which Is one of his
major political assets. Few
State organizations have had
1t more strikingly proved
to them that theirs is the
minority party.
The visitor was told that
he could not, after all, ad-
dress the Legislature, even
though it had formally ap-
proved the invitation. In
stead, the leaders substituted
the dreary hotel reception,
confined to party people,
which was such a frost.
They told Gov. Rockefeller
that Gov. Nelson, together
with other Democrats, PLAN
ned to be present at the can
celled legislative session and
heckle him. Gov. Nelson,
who gets around, learned this
and sent personal assurances
to his gubernatorial associate
that this was not true. 1t
so happens that the Nations
Governors, who confer an
nually, are quite cozy with
one another, and Gov. Rookie
feller accepted the Nelson
assurances.
The New Yorker is not
amused, and as for the anna
teurs in his party, political
life as it is really practiced

DORIS FLEESON

MADISON, Wis. - The
Nixon policy of containment
Of Gov. Nelson Rockefeller
entered the public domain
here with the case of the
revoked invitation. This
drama was played rather
fumblingly by the Repub-
lican Legislature, with some
satirical off-stage diversions
by the Democrats and their
Governor, Gaylord Nelson.
The play took shape last
week when the pro-Nixon
legislative leaders decided
that part of their "kill him
with kindness" treatment of
the New Yorker should be
an invitation to address the
Legislature. They apparently
had hoped for Democratic
protests, but somebody in the
opposition had a better idea.
inasmuch as Gov. Nelson has
been fighting the Legislature
for a withholding-tax reform
similar to that which Gov.
Rockefeller put across last
year in New York.
Brimming with bipartisan
ship, the Democrats CO.
operated. They would partic-
ularly like, they said, to have
Gov. Rockefeller say a few
words about how he got his
tax plan through his Repub-
lican legislature. Gov. Nelson
stepped up with a handsome
invitation to meet the visi-
tor anywhere. any time, and
extend an official welcome.
The Republicans panicked.

National AirIines
Contest Under
CAB Scrutiny
By the Associated Press

The Civil Aeronautics Board
was asked yesterday to rule on
the legality Of a $4,000 prize
contest sponsored last spring
by National Airlines.
Counsel for the boards en-
forcement division contended
in oral arguments that giving
passengers on National Airlines
planes an opportunity to COM
pete for the 200 prizes consti-
tuted an illegal rebate on fares
and was unfair competition for
other airlines.
Richard A. Fitzgerald, Ma
tional Airlines attorney. argued
there was nothing wrong with
the contest. He said it was
no more Of @ rebate than
gifts Of champagne, whisky,
meals, souvenir flight bags,
Silver spoons, flowers and other
items presented to passengers
by other airlines.

stronger nor weaker than
they were two or three years
ago, the resurrection of ma
tionalism in all our allied
countries has added consid-
erably to the determination
of our continental European
allies to resist any Soviet at
tempt at further expansion.
The situation from the
point of morale has been
improved; there is no longer
a wind of neutralism blow
ing over our main allies in
Europe. The German slogan
of "Ohne Uns" without us)
has completely disappeared.
France, while still holding
only a token force at the
disposal Of the NATO su-
preme command, is endeavor-
ing to increase its naval and
air forces and, what is more
important. to have its own
nuclear weapons.
Thus, it is asked, why this
sudden sound of alarm at
the apathy" of our allies,
with definitely special en-
phasis on the French? The
answer, in as far as can be
gathered, is political rather
than military and goes back
to the days when President
Eisenhower said sarcastically
that President de Gaulle re-
CARDS himself as a combina-
ton Of Joan Of Arc and
Clemenceau. 1t also goes back
to the days when Prime Min
lister Churchill said in one
of his lighter moods that the
heaviest cross he had carried
in World War II was the
Cross Of Lorraine (the in
sigma Of the Free French.
The situation was caused, in
as far as We are concerned,
by a lack of understanding
of Gen. de Gaulle's political
and military philosophy.
The consequence of this
storm in the tea cup" as
some want to describe it, is
a schism in the allied camp
which can benefit only Messrs.
Khrushchev and Mao Tse-
tung.

Castro Probes
 Report of Finding Cuban Army Chief

HAVANA, tR - Fidel Castro's government ordered an investiga- ton yesterday into the origin of a fake report that the missing army commander, Major Camilo Cienfuegos, was alive on a small island off Cuba.
 Supporters of Castro suggested counter-revolutionaries were be- hind the hoax to lure the Prime Minister into trap on the unin- habited island 120 miles southeast of Havana.
 The originl report was attrib- uted to two ham radio operators relaying what purported to be a message from navy launch that said it had rescued Cienfuegos and called for Castro to fly by helicopter and pick him up.
 The report that the popular army commander was safe after being missing week touched off a wild, spontaneous demonstra- ton. Shots were fired in the air in jubilation, and there were un- confirmed reports of seven per sons being wounded by bullets.
 President Osvaldo Dorticos after conferring with Castro quickly announced that the report was false and told newsmen: ''At this time we have no news to give on the whereabouts of Major Cienfuegos."

 EbramS was called as witness before the House Legislative Oversight Subcommittee in an eff fort to reconcile earlier conflict ing statements made by him, Revson and the shows pro- ducerS.
 He was to be followed by the heads of the Columbia Broad casting System and the National Broadcasting Co.
 The committee had questions ready for the nations two biggest networks on plans for keeping deceit and fraud off the TV screen.

 For the U. s. as whole, the total bill for public elementary and secondary schools, 96 per cent of the cost falls on local and state governments.

 Worried about Sputnik? . A recent sample of 1876 public secondary schools showed that in the spring of 1858, 66 per cent of all students in these schools were enrolled in mathematics courses and over 59 per cent in science courses. This would mean on a national scale that about 6,145,- 000 students were taking mathe- matics and 5,5O0,00O were taking science. There is an obvious over- lap of these groups, but it's extent is unknown.
 The cost of an hour of public school instruction in 1858 was 33 cents an hour Gncluding build ing, supplies, equipment, teach CTS salaries, and other costs. This cost is less than that of the cheapest alternative - 50 cents an hour for an untrained teenage baby sitter with limited activities and no program - and you pro- vide the furniture, TV, telephone, transportation, and food.
 James B. Conant has said that three things are necessary for a good high school (provided it is of sufficient size): first, a school board composed of devoted, in- telligent, understanding citizens who realize fully the distinction between policy making and ad- ministration; second, a first-rate superintendent, and third, good principals.
