Dirksen Advises COP Tread Lightly On Labor Bill
By JOE HALL

WASHINGTON, R - Senate Republican Leader Everett M Dirksen R-IlD said Saturday he was certain the labor regulation bill would be sent to conference by the Senate early next week.
 Some Republican senators have urged that a move be made to accept the more stringent House bill, and send it directly to the White House.
 But Dirksen told a reporter he did not think the votes were avail able for success in such an at tempt. He said it might be a mis- take in tactics in that it would be challenge to the pefogatives of the Senate leadership, and thus might solidify all Democrats, in cluding the Southerners against the move to bypass conference.
 Senator Barry Goldwater R- Ariz), senior Republican on the Senate Labor Committee, also said he did not think it would be wise to make such an attempt.
 The Senate is expected to act on sending the bill to conference Monday or Tuesday.
 Senator Sam J. Erwin Jr. D- Mass, chief author of the Senate Senate bill, said he feared that sending the bill to conference might end any chance for legis- lation this session.
 Senator John F. Kennedy D- Mass, hief author of fthe Senate bill. said he believed House ap- proval of the toughest of the three bills before it made Senate-House agreement difficult. But Kennedy added he considered it the duty of Congress to get bill this year Numbered Duplicate Stub Tickets

Air Force, Coast Guard Assist In Rushing Cobra Serum to Snakebite Victim

ST. JOSEPH, Mo, R yum A A. foot-long Indian cobra bit an en- ploye of a reptile garden near here yesterday. He may live be- cause of a dramatic 1,3O0-mile flight from Miami, Fla
 The Coast Guard and the Air Force flew anti-cobra serum from Miami to St. Joseph after Will liam White, 32, was bitten. The serum was administered several hours later
 A single drop of cobra venom can be fatal. Usually it takes only four hours to kill, said Will liam H. Hast, operator of the Miami serpentorium.
 But the cobra's fangs pierced a sack of heavy material before they hit White on the thumb. The bag apparently absorbed some of the venom.
 A hospital attendant said White, who has been bitten about 100 times by on-poisonous snakes during his four years at the rep tile garden. remarked as the ser um was injected, q knew all the time I'd be okay."
 The Methodist Hospital reported at mid-morning White appeared to be in good condition.
 After White was bitten, a tele- phone call was made to the Miami Serpentorium. John Flinchpaugh, owner of the Reptile Garden, said the Miami place was the only source of anti-cobra serum in the United States. The serum is made in Bombay, India.
 While Air Force Lieutenants James Ahmann of Louisville, and Larry Marks of Miami stood by T-33 jet trainer, a Coast Guard helicOpter picked up the vial of serum at the Serpentorium.
 The jet covered the 1900 miles from Miami to this city in north west Missouri in 3 hours, 48 minutes.

Nixon Stresses US. Show of Strength Will Deter Reds

CHICAGO, R - A position of strength offers Americas greatest hope for reaching agreements with the Soviet Union, says Vice President Richard M. Nixon.
 Strength is the only thing the Russian le a ders understand, '" Nixon said. T mean military strength. When one side has more strength than the other, you get ultimatums that could lead to war"
 The Vice President said his recent tour of the Soviet Union and Poland has convinced him the only hope for progress toward world peace is for the United States to deal from a position of strength at any future summit conference.
 Nixon, in Chicago for Friday nights college all-star football game with the Baltimore Colts, expressed his views at a press conference and at an informal talk to the Football Writers Associa- tion of America.
 In television program re- corded in Washington for New York stations in advance of his trip to Chicago, Nixon said Soviet Premier Nikita s. Khrushchev be- lieves the United States is weak, sinking economically and split over foreign policy.
 He said Khrushchev's forthcom- ing visit to America will be worth while if it removes This miscal- culation" about U. s. strength and determination. The net effect, he added, could advance the cause of peace.
 Nixon said the Soviets repeat edly had asked him ''Why is the United States so heavily armed? Why do you have your bases abroad?"
 And I told them simply and directly, because good offense is the best defense. I told them our establihment of overseas bases and the tremendous effort we are putting into arms produc- tion is the result of the Soviet Unions actions in Korea and in the Berlin blockade and elsewhere in the world where it's power was threatening the free world"

Is Debt Old = Fashioned?

THE FORD FOUNDATION recently interviewed number of people as to their reasons for saving whatever money they saved,
 Understandably such items Ito provide for old age' (98 per cent), flor emergencies (60 per cen), flor chdrens education GA per cent), and Ito leave an inheritance" (29 per cent) ranked high the list of answers
 But the .shocker was at the bottom.
 ITO pay off debts" was the reason given least, by only IA per cent of the respondents.
 It's not hard to understand why "debt' no longer seems like anything to worry about to many Amer jeans.
 major goal of our businessmen is to urge us to go into debt planned basis; ie., time payments
 But if real recession ever strikes, we wonder if the same businessmen will be happy to discover the attitude toward debt widely fostered.

statement continued, "and shall

The Blundell group originally
included forty-two other MEM
bers of the multi-racial legisla-

Muse Amalemba, African Minister
of Housing. He said in London
June 80 that any African major
ity in Kenya should be based on
the ability to shoulder response
bility rather than color of skin.
One African was present today.
He was Gibson Ngone, member
of the Legislative Council from
Mombosa. He said it was up to
the Africans to safeguard the
rights of minorities here just as
African rights were safeguarded
in London.
Among those present as partici-
pants but not as members of the
group-and who heard Mr.. Ngone
use the word "intermarriage,"
which is a sensitive one here
were two of the most conservative
whites.
These were Group Captain Les
lie Briggs, regarded as the most
responsible spokesman for the
conservatives, and E. L. Howard
Williams, an extremist.

ment suppressed Mr.. Williams

HAMILTON AFB, Calf, UP - The Air Force labored Monday to make sonic boom and pro- duced bust.
 Trying to show newsmen how faster-than-sound speeds will cause a shock wave, two F-104 jet fighters crossed over this base at 36,O00 feet. Navy It. Tom Brown of Port Washington, N. Y., and Air Force Capt. Orland w. Jensen of Los Angeles insisted they had exceeded the speed of sound.
 This should have produced a boom. The silence was deafening
 Must have been layer of heavy, cold air below them that muffled the sound, said Brown and Jensen.
