1t is much too early to say,

ROME. July 9.-Communist
rioting, aimed at ousting Pre-
mier Fernando Tambroni's
Christian Democrat govern
ment, appeared today to have
backfired and to have strength
ened his hand instead.
The rioting, Italy's worst in
years, has killed 10 and in
jured more than 1.000-both
demonstrators and police. No
major Italian city has escpaed
the disorders.
Communist orators have re-
peatedly demanded that Mr..
Tabroni must go or. as one
pro-Communist Senator put it,
Italy will "be a government of
civil war;"
But the strife seems to have
united the warning factions of
Mr.. Tambroni's Christian Dem
ocrat Party behind him, at
least for the present, and to
have made it more difficult for
the Facists to withdraw their
support from him.
Needed Fascist Votes
Mr.. Tambroni's government
was shaky one when it came
to power in April. The left wing
of the Christian Democrats
openly opposed the government
Mr. Tambroni needed Fascist
votes to survive a vote of con-
fldence in the Chamber of Dep
utieS. The Communists and So
cialiSts on the left, the Liberals
and the Monarchists on the
right, all opposed Mr.. Tam
oroni.
A week ago the Premier looked
as If he was in trouble. In the
early stages of the rioting, Com.
munist demonstrators forced
the government to order the
cancellation of a Fascist ma.
tional congress in Genoa. Irate
FasciSts threatened to withdraw
their support from the govern.
ment. They said it should have
given them more protection.
But in the past three days
violent rioting has created 6
new, critical situation in which
the FasciStS are expected tt
think twice before opposing Mr.
Tambroni. And some say the
Liberals and Monarchists might
have second thoughts too i

big test is expected to come
Tuesday when both houses O.

In the meantime, Mr.. Tam

LOS ANGELES.-It is per-
haps significant that the
Nations first national nomi-
mating convention was con-
fused and contradictory. It
was held in 1881 at Baltimore
by the Anti-Masonic Party.
Its nominee, William Writ,
was a Freemason, and he
defended the order in a
speech to the convention
which nominated him.
The Democrats held their
first in 1882, nominating
Andrew Jackson for a second
term. The Republicans, who
adopted that name officially
in 1854, nominated John C.
Fremont at their first con-
vention in Philadelphia in
1856.
1t cannot be said there is
today any great national in
tenSity about the candidates
offered by either party. There
is curiosity, but not fervor.
Reporters arriving here
are informed that gamblers
in the City of the Angels are
offering heavy odds that Jack
Kennedy will make it not
later than the second ballot.
There are almost no voices
to say them nay.
But speculation is a disease
affecting otherwise good
minds in election years. And
so, since a wee mathematical
chance remains to stop Sena-
tor Kennedy, the convention
takes on some of the mystery
of the Great Indeflnable.
There are men who nurse
the dream that on the second
ballot the delegate weed kill
er, applied but a few days
ago by Old Doctor Truman,
will begin to show it's effect.
After that second ballot, say
the makers of this dubious
dream, the great State of
Texas will begin to be heard
from and her favorite son,
Lyndon Johnson, will begin
his climb toward the nomi-
nation.
But whatever the potency
of his stop Kennedy Spe-
cif1c," or lack of it, it is per-
haps just as we'll that DR..
Truman isn't scheduled to
speak to the delegates. The
mood of some of them is
such that the less decorous
would almost surely boo him.
And this is something Mr..
Truman doesn't deserve from
the party, even though twice
now he has given it's conven-
tions the back of his hand,
ere the delegates had taken
up what is called their delib-
erations.
There is some sullenness
around. There has been
pressure by the Kennedy
forces. and some of it was
hard to take. But none can
deny that a great tide flows
for him. 1t may be the party is
weary of the old pros. Maybe
there is an appeal in a fresh
young face. I recall that in
West Virginia the women and

They are better off-although
there are still a number of
depressed areas, particularly
in the south-than they have
ever been before.
The Italians are not in
clined to impair their present
prosperity. But the disci-
plined hard Communist core
has succeeded in creating
serious trouble in Rome
and other prosperous cities,
although strike orders have
been obeyed only in the Red
belt" around Bologna and
other prosperous Northern
Italian industrial centers.
The success or failure of the
movements ordered by the
Kremlin stooge Togliatti de-
pend entirely on the deter
mination of Italian Premier
Tambroni to fight back.
But it is in the Caribbean,
and especially in Cuba, that
the heat wave produced by

Truman Due to Chonqe

INDEPENDENCE, Mo, July
g (AP).-Former President
Truman was expected to an
nounce today-to no ones sur
prise-that he has changed his
mind and will attend the Dem
ocratic National Convention in
Los Angeles as a Missouri del
egate.
Ten days ago Mr.. Truman
said he was resigning as a del
egate and would not attend the
convention. Last Saturday, in
a press conference, he gave his
reason. The convention, he
said, was "prearranged" in IA
vor of Senator John Kennedy
of Massachusetts,.
The former President said he
was acting to alert the party
to the danger of freezing out
other worthy candidates for the
Democratic presidential NOM
ination.
But he carefully left the door
ajar. At the press conference
asked if he might be in Los
Angeles at convention time
even though he did not plan
to attend the sessions, he re-
piled:
"You never can tell"
When told Thursday that the

For the time being the heat
is building up in sections of
Africa. Europe and the Car
ibbean. The Africans were
given their independence
without preparation for self
government. They are cele-
brating it, especially in the
former Belgian Congo, with
orgies against the white set
tiers. There are fears that
the example of the Congo
lese will be followed by 9TH
erS.
In Europe the ubiquitous
Nikita Khrushchev is direct
ly and indirectly melting
trouble. His state visit to
Austria was, as usual, turned
into another propaganda
campaign against the United
States and West Germany,
his pet hatreds.
KhruShchev warned once
more that he intends to
crush Chancellor Adenauer,
whom he brands a second
Hitler" and protect Austria's
neutrality by sending troops
into that country in the event
Austrian neutral airspace is
violated by missiles which
can be launched from Italy.
Austria's Chancellor Raab
dared utter only the mildest
rebuke for Khrushchev's pro-
vocative speeches. Austria is
too close to the Soviet bor-
derS.

Strike Threat

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. II
(AP).-A difference in the in
depreciation of the word "abol-
ished" precipitated a strike
threat against the Pennsylvania
Railroad.
The Brotherhood Of Railway
and Steamship Clerks Friday
asked its national headquarters
to start strike proceedings be-
cause the railroad had abol-
ished 299 jobs in Philadelphia.
Today, however, a Pennsy
spokesman said the word "abol-
ished" used in a notice to the
affected employees actually
meant they were furloughed.
P. N. Connor, division chair
man Of the brotherhood, said
the notice read, eve regret &.
to advise you that your posi-
ton is abolished at the begin
ming Of your tour of duty
Thursday, September 49,"
The railroad spokesman said
the term abolished" was tech
nical phrasing as required by
the union contract. He said
the men will be called back to
work "as soon as business war
rants it," with many returning
to their jobs next week.
OF the men involved, 100 are
in the freight claims depart
ment and 102 are in the ac-
counting department.
The brotherhood represents
$4,000 Of the railroads $4,000
employees. 1t Is the largest
single union within the PRR
system.

security chief, Gen. Nicolai
zhakarov, expressed dissatis-
faction with the rundown
condition of the city pier where
Mr.. Khrushchev's ship is due
to dock Monday.
Mr.. KhruShchev is scheduled
to. arrive Monday morning
(about Z EST after a Today
voyage aboard the Soviet liner
Baltika.
Accompanied by 40
Accompanying him will be
about ITO aides, plus the Com
munist leaders of Hungary,
Bulgaria, Romania and some
100 of their aides.
Mr.. Zhakarov inspected the
city dock this morning with
New York police authorities,
mainly to double check the ex-
tions that will bar all but in
vited guests when Mr.. Khru-
Shchev comes ashore.
Mr.. ZhakaroV shook his head
as he noticed the rusty CORFU
gated metal sidings covering
the pier, as well as dozens of
broken windows, holes in the
roof and piles of dirt that had
yet to be swept up.
The pier, No. 73, is a seldom
used structure that was chosen
as the spot for Mr.. Khrushchev
to dock because its out-of the
way location helped ease the
security problem.
For the past week, workmen
have been busy cleaning it up
as best they could. An old
dilapidated gangplank had been
repainted gray this morning.
Mr.. Zhakarov talked earnest
ly to New York police authori-
ties who already have put a
day and night guard around
the pier. Afterward, the word
was that more workmen would
be put on the cleanup job.
More Precautions
New reinforcements arrived
today for the corps Of State
Department security agents who
have ultimate responsibility for
the safety Of Mr.. Khrushchev
and other foreign leaders when
ever they venture into Manhat-
tan's streets.
Working closely with New
York police, the agents have
installed an elaborate network
of walkie-talkies for instant
communication.
Separate task forces Of pistol
packing agents were assigned to
team with police squads. The
police meanwhile announced
that a mobile emergency re-
serve force had been organized
to rush to any spot where
trouble might develop.
Police authorities reported
they had no estimate Of the
number Of organized pickets
and hecklers who will demon
Strate against Mr.. KhruShchev,
his satellite chiefs, and Mr..
Castro.
A telephoned threat to bomb
the Overseas Press Club, which
has asked Mr.. KhruShchev to
speak, added to their appre-
hension.
Police Commissioner Stephen
P. Kennedy put himself on "a
hour duty until the foreign
government chiefs leave town.
He reported he would sleep
whenever he could on a cot in
his office.
Evening star., 1960-09-18

he was reportedly planning
to arrive tomorrow but there
was no official word from
Havana on when and how he
would travel.
Mr.. Khrushchev and Mr..
Castro are among some 16 for
eign government chiefs de-
Scending on the city next week.
All are due to attend the
United Nations General As
sembly session which Mr..
Khrushchev has sought to con-
vert into an unprecedented
conference on disarmament by
world summit leaders.
The State Department which,
oflcially is ignoring Mr..
Khrushchev's visit, meanwhile
stepped into the picture to help
solve a lingering problem: Ho-
tel accommodations for the
controversial Mr.. Castro.
After an urgent appeal from
Cuba's ambassador, a top State
Department official in Wash
ington apparently persuaded a
New York East Side hotel to
provide rooms for Mr.. Castro
and some Of his official party
Of so.
Movements Restricted
Until today, Cuban authori-
ties had secured the city in
vain for a place he could stay
in Manhattan, in keeping
with orders restricting his
movements.
Owner Edward Spatz of the
Hotel Shelburne said today he
probably would put UP Mr..
Castro because the State De-
partment had requested it. Mr..
Spatz said he figured it was
his duty as a citizen, but he
added: ..
"AS far as I'm concerned, I
have no use for the guy (Mr.
Castro) and I certainly would
Mt enjoy having him here.
But if I am asked by the PreSi-
dent, through the State De-
partment, what can ! do?"

ache bobbed up involving Mr..
Khrushchev's arrival.
