NEW YORK, Jan. 5 (AP),-
The executive secretary of the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People
says he doubts that Negroes
would support Senate Majority
Leader johnson for President. :
Roy wilkins told the 50th an
nual meeting of the NAACP

issue.
He said Senator Johnsonrs
supporters are trying to paint
the Senator las a deviate from

Mr.. Wilkins said the Demo-
cratic leaders in the big cities
in the North have good reason
to doubt that Negro voters will
support Senator johnson or
anyone with his background

THE real test will be whether
or not Senator Johnson, as ma

told an Indonesian Air Force
court-martial yesterday his
main motive for joining Indo-
nesian rebels against the ia
karta government was to fight
communism.
Since I was % have been

3l-year-old Miami pilot.
Pope is charged with helping
the North Celebes rebel move
ment as the pilot of a B-26

The Nations 374 traffic deaths
over the three-day New Year

overall accident toll of 5l3

States and its neighbors to the
south.
Trouble on Exchange
For Brazil, such a program
would be particularly welcome
since the big South American
republic, rich as it is in natural
resources. is having trouble
keeping its foreign exchange
earnings at a satisfactory level
Some private economists here
say that heavy exports Of cof-
fee by Brazil last year helped
the country over a very diff
cult financial situation, but
that it is not out of the woods
yet. In fact, there are some
who believe that unless there is
a sudden squirt in demand for
coffee. or economic aid from
the United States or Europe,
Brazil might be in a tight
spot for foreign exchange by
next March or April.
Brazil is considered by many
here as something of a key to
future economic progress in
Latin America, and always d
strong force in United States
relations with the area.
1t was a letter from the
Brazilian president which put
into motion inter-American
discussions which led to an

Kennedy Seeks Action
On Minimum Pay Bill

Senator Kennedy intends to
make minimum wage legisla-
ton his top labor issue for
1860, now that the steel crisis
has ended, informed sources
said today.
The Massachusetts, Demo-
crat, who is courting labor
votes in his bid for the preSi-
Dental nomination. will press
for committee action this
month on a bill to raise the
minimum from 81 to SIPS per
hour, and to extend coverage
to excluded workers.
AS chairman Of the Senate
Labor Subcommittee. he had
planned to hold early hearings
On legislation to block a new
steel strike. Yesterdays set
tlement took the pressure off.
He probably will hold hearings
later in the year on broad
legislation to handle national
emergency strikes.
Priority to Wage Issue
But now the minimum wage
issue has displaced strike legis-
lation as the top-priority item
on his agenda.
Senator Kennedy's subcom-
mittee last year held hearings
and approved a bill to raise
the Federal minimum for work.
ers now covered from 81 to
$1.25. The bill also would ex-
tend coverage to about 10 mil
hon workers now excluded.
These 10 million workers
would at first have a 81 min
tmum, which would rise grad
ually in four years to SIPS.
Their hours would decline grad
ually to the standard 40.
Wants Prompt Action
Senator Kennedy plans to
press for prompt action on his
bill by the full Senate Labor
Committee. Prospects seem to
favor approval by the commit
tee Of bill in line with the
subcommittee measure.
Action by the full Senate is
clouded with uncertainty. And
it, probably will be difficult to
push a major minimum wage
bill through the House.
The Eisenhower administra-
ton last year proposed limited
extension Of coverage, but op-
posed any increase in the 81
MISUNDERSTANDING a boost
would be inflationary and would
eliminate jobs for some workers.
Anew study of the consequences
Of increasing the minimum
could lead to a change in the
administrations position. That
study is nearing completion in
the Labor Department.

Symington SoysHeIs Isn't
An 'Avowed' Candidate

Senator Symington, Demo-
crat of Missouri. insisted today
he is not an "avowed" candi-
date for President. and there
fore will not enter any Of the
State primaries.
At the same time, however
the Missourian said he would
not do anything afflrmatively
to prevent his name from going
on the ballot in Oregon. That
State has an unusual law under
which petitioners may enter
anyone's name.
In a separate press confer
ence, Senator Talmadge. Dem
ocrat Of Georgia, warned DEM
ocratic leaders that If the party
drafts a platform which marks
lone fourth of the people and
one fourth Of the territory of
the country for a second re-
construction it will lose the
election"
This was an obvious reference
to the civil rights issue, on
which Northern and Southern
Democrats disagree sharply.
Talmadge Makes Prediction
At the same time, Senator
Talmadge predicted that If the
Democrats nominate a reason
able candidate who appeals to
people in all parts Of the coun-
try and adopts a reasonable
platform they will have a good
chance Of electing a President.
Asked if the Southern States
would pool their delegate
strength at the Democratic
convention behind one candi-
date, Senator Talmadge said he
does not know of any such
plan. He said Georgians are
divided over who should be
nominated. He said If his
advice is asked he would sug-
gest that Georgia send an un-
instructed delegation TO review
the question after the platform
is written and then try TO get
the best candidate.
Senator Symington was
asked by a reporter:
You say you are not an
avowed candidate-what kind
Of candidate are you?"
How to Tell a Candidate"
Il don't think I am a candi-
date at all" he replied. "A can
didate is one who announces.
Asked If he is in much the
same position as Adlai Steven
son, Senator Symington said
he would be proud to be placed
in the same category with Mr..
Stevenson.
Senator Symington said in a
statement yesterday he will
introduce legislation to give
farmers a greater voice in farm
policy and to establish a ma
tional food-use program to
fight hunger at home and
abroad.
He said "the farm situation
has continued down hill" and
"action now is necessary to halt
and reverse this serious trend"
Aims of Proposed Bill
The bill he proposed would
Establish a national food
use program to insure that
agricultural abundance is used
both at home and abroad to
alleviate hunger and malnutri-
ton.
Establish a national conser-

Rockefeller
Silent on Plans

ALBANY. N. Y, Jan. S (AP) .
- Gov. Rockefeller disclosed
yesterday he had talked with
Vice President Nixon since de-
Gliding not to run against Mr..
Nixon for the Republican
presidential nomination. But
the Governor declined to say
whether he had promised to
support Mr.. Nixon.
The Governor also told a
news conference he had spoken
with President Eisenhower
since announcing the decision,
but side-stepped queries about
details of the telephone talks
with the President and Vice
President.
Gov. Rockefeller was reluc-
tant to discuss national politics.
He conceded under repeated
questioning that he had noti-
fled Mr.. Eisenhower personally
December 26 of the decision not
to run, after the withdrawal
statement had been given to
Albany reporters that day.
The Governor and Mr.. Nixon
spoke last Monday. Gov
Rockefeller declined to say who
had placed the telephone call
or how long it had lasted.
Mr.. Eisenhower had no direct
or indirect role in the decision
not to challenge Mr.. Nixon, the
Governor explained.
Neither, he said, was former
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey con-
suited.
Gov. Rockefeller said he
would lead the States 96-vote
delegation to the Republican
National Convention in Chi
cago next July.

this may have disturbed Gov
ernment officials, in view Of
violent anti-American speeches
in the last few months in Cuba
and Panama. In addition,
there have been suggestions by
some members of Congress that
Washington's relations with
Latin America generally leave
much to be desired.
Although there has been no

also to visit Chile and Uruguay,
and pressure for him to visit

Quitting Dixie
Holiday Today

AOGOO n, Sd.s JdIl. . NASJ /.
President Eisenhower is end
ing his Dixie vacation today and
flying back to Washington to
consult with his cabinet and
present his program to an elec-
tion-year Congress.
Mr.. Eisenhower will meet with
the cabinet tomorrow morning.
Together, they will run through
the state -of-the- Union message
he will deliver to Congress in
person on Thursday.
The message will lay down in
broad outlines the administra-
tion's program and legislative
plans for the year ahead. The
budget to provide the financing,
a balanced affair calling for
record peacetime spending of
$8l billion goes to Congress jan
uary 18.
Then Annual Report
A few tag ends of the budget
message still have to be tucked
in. The budget will be followed
on January 20 by Mr.. Eisen-
hower's annual report to Con-
gress on the economic outlook.
Farther in the future more
diplomatic conferences and mis-
sions are coming up.
Plans for a presidential good
will mission to four Latin
American nations in February
apparently are being an
nounced everywhere but at the
White House. They probably
will be announced there only
after all times and places have
been agreed on.
Then there are a state visit
from President de Gaulle of
France in April, an East West
summit conference May Is In
Paris and a commitment for
Mr.. Eisenhower to repay later
in the spring Soviet Premier
Khrushchev's visit to the United
States.

Eisenhower few to Augusta De-
cember 81, five days after the
Chief Executive came home from
a 22,000-mile pilgrimage of
peace to II nations in Europe,

The idea was to get in plenty
of rest, plenty of golf and the
necessary work required to get
the messages to Congress in
shape.
The midafternoon departure
time let the President get in a
final round of golf. He teed
