Court Attack
DuetoCounter
Rights Bill
BY J. A. OLEARY
star Stan Writer


Southern Senators will coun.
ter-attack against q late ses.
sion drive for a new civil rights
law with amendments designed
to curb the power Of the Su-
'preme Court.
One Of the Southern leaders
said yesterday that the House
approved States rights bill
would almost certainly be used
as one such amendment.
The bill. HR 8. declares that
q Federal law shall not super
sede similar State laws unless
Congress specifically intends to
supersede State law or when
the conflict between the Fed
eral law and State law is toe
great to be reconciled.
The bill was introduced orig
inally after the Supreme Court
reversed a Pennsylvania State
court sedition conviction of q
Communist leader on the
ground that Federal law pre-
empted the field. While spon-
sors Of the States rights bill
have denied 1t is designed to
curb the Supreme Court, this
is the purpose generally
ascribed to it.
Stopped in Committee
The Southerners do not be-
lieve they have the votes to
get HR 3 out of the Senate
Judiciary Committee as a sep
arate measure. One Of them
said he counted only six votes
in the 15-member committee to
report the bill. But there is
nothing in the Senate rules
to stop the Southerners from
offering the substance of the
measure as an amendment to

Kennedy Urges Hawaii
To Join Democrats

of John A. Burns. Hawaii's del
egate TO Congress who Is run
ming for governor.
Senator Kennedy credited
Democrat Burns with devising
the legislative strategy which
won statehood for the islands
and with taking the lead in
rounding up statehood votes
In Congress last March.
Senator Kennedy also sup
ported the three Democrats
running for congressional
seats.
East-West Bridge
Turning to Hawaii's mid
Pacific role as an East-West
bridge to Asian nations, Sen
ator Kennedy declared:
"Our foreign economic policy
should stand on its own feet.
AsianS are not interested in
being sold to the highest bid
der. On the contrary, II our
aid is given on the assumption
that this will buy us friends
If they feel they are being
made pawns in the cold war
If they regard the United
States only as a military guar
dian, a giver Of goods or q
lender of cash - then no
amount Of economic aid will
strengthen our cause in that
area.
I'VE want Asia and America,
with common ties and common
concerns. to consider each
other what they really are
partners in the world commu-
nifty.
These islands are the ideal
example of how Asia and
America, East and West, can
meet together on free and
equal terms. If we can profit
by your example, If we can
demonstrate a real concern in
the people Of Asia and their
future, If we can spend a small
sum now that may save us bill
lions later-and I do not mean
a handout, but capital loans
through the Development Loan
Fund - then our task will be
easier and our own future more
secure"
Sen. Kennedy's visit here
was similar to a trip he made
to Alaska to participate in the
49th States election campaign
last November. He will leave
by plane tomorrow to return
to Washington.

Supporters Of q new civil
rights bill are counting on the
ability of the House to pass 1t
first. Senate liberals could
then repeat the strategy they
adopted in 1857 Of taking up
the House bill without letting
1t go to a Senate subcommit-
tee. This tactic two years ago
enabled the 85th Congress toI
pass the first civil rights law
in 30 years. But that law
dealt largely with the protec-
ton Of voting rights, and
Northerners in both parties
think the broader measure
should be enacted now.

any civil rights bill that may
be taken up.
Neutral observers do not be-
lieve the Southerners can
muster q majority to attach
HR 3, or any other court
curbing bill. to the civil rights
bill. For that reason, the
Southern strategy is not ex-
pected to be decisive in blocking
civil rights action.
The chief value Of their
strategy would be opposed to
curbing the court as the South
erners are against further
Federal action on civil rights.
The liberals might have to
make some speeches against
the court amendments. But If
they have the votes to beat
these amendments they would
not spend time debating the
subject.
Close Vote Last Year
In the closing days Of the
last Congress the Southerners
came close to getting Senate
action on a court-curbing bill.
But on August 81, 1858, the
bill was recommitted, 41-4O.
The liberals are stronger in
the Senate now than they were
then as a result of last No
vember's election. This means
HR 3 is not likely to be passed
before this session adjourns.
The Southerners have one
ray of hope they did not pos
sess last year. This is only the
first session of the seth Con-
gress, and unacted-upon legis-
lation will remain alive in the
Senate committee throug h
1860. When the similar bill
reached the Senate last year
it was in the closing weeks Of
the 85th Congress, and the bill
died with adjournment.

HONOLULU, July 4 (AP).-
Senator Kennedy, Democrat OF
Massachusetts,, wound UP two
days Of stamping the Hawaiian
Islands tonight with q call To
the new State to join "the
great Democratic tide sweep
ing the Nation"
N In a speech prepared for a
S25-a-plate independence Day
dinner, Senator Kennedy told
Hawaii Democrats:
1.-THE eyes of the Nation are
upon you. Members Of both
parties in the other 40 States
will be studying your election
results with an eye toward ma
tional trends.
For this is, in many ways,
o kickoff Of the 1860 cam
paign."
z Election on July 20
The islands will hold their
I first State election July % to
choose two United States Sem
ators, one Representative, a
governor and State legislature.
Senator Kennedy's speech
capped a two-day flying tour
which took him the length of
the 200-mile island chain to
Democratic gatherings on the
Islands Of Hawaii and Maui as
we'll as in Honolulu.
The first presidential hopeful
to invade the islands, Senator
Kennedy coupled his spoken
support of local Democratic
candidates with an undeclared
bid for Hawaii's six to ten dele
gates to the 1860 national Dem
ocratic convention. The Aloha
States delegation so far is not
committed to any candidate.
In his dinner speech, Senator
Kennedy predicted that both
Houses Of Congress would con-
tinue overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic after the 1860 elections.
And he forecast that Demo-
Gratis would be named to all
three Hawaii seats.
Kennedy's Plea
The Massachusetts Democrat
told party followers:
your tremendous victory
here next July % may well lead
to a new slogan, AS Hawaii
goes. so goes the Nation"

aspirant devoted a good part

 Instead, thousands of dazed and bewildered men, women and children - homeless and hungry LII shuffled aimlessly among ruins that once had been their homes, or took to the roads in search of food and shelter.
 They were the survivors of the hurricane, floods and landslides which ravaged Mexico's Pacific states of Jalisco and Colima last Tuesday. An estimated 1,500 per sons died.
 Relief supplies of food, medi- cine, clothing and some building materials are coming into the stricken area by air, road and sea, in small lots. Rail lines which can handle larger shipments, are still closed

Russia Sends Expert to Hear Fishing Discussed

SEATTLE, LR m Executive Di- rector Roy J. Jackson of the h. ternational Pacific Fisheries Com mission said Friday Russia plans 10 send an official observer to the commissions annual meeting, opening here Monday.
 Jackson said the Russian ob- server would be Michail Nikitch Mironov, chief inspector of the Russian Federation of Conserva- ton and Production of Fish.
 The commission, composed of representatives of Canada, Japan and the United States, will hear a number of proposals concern ing North Pacific salmon stocks, including proposal that Russia be named a party to the commis- sion treaty.

Texan in Moscow
 Says He's Through With America'

MOSCOW, LR m A 20-year-old Texan strode into the American Embassy Saturday, slapped down his passport on the consul desk and said q have made up my mind. I'm through"
 He was Lee Tarvey Oswald, a former Marine of Fort Worth, who said he had applied for Soviet citizenship.
 The Embassy urged him not to sign papers renouncing his Amer ican citizenship until he was sure the Soviet Union would accept him.
 He is the third American dur ing the past three months to apply for Soviet citizenship while visiting Russia.
 Nicholas Petrulli of Valley Stream, N. Y., changed his mind after filing the remuneration form and this was what the Embassy had in mind when urging Oswald to take the final step.
 Robert Webster of Cleveland, Ohio, completed the formalities 10 days ago, and has disappeared into the anonymous mass of the Soviet population.
