Last week our man left Phoenix

Our man was refused hotel ac-

informed that the Jail was "full, :"

A three-continent radio-tele-

operator may have helped save
Halle Selassie's government in
Ethiopia, it was learned here
today.
The call. at the height Of the
recent uprising in Adds Ababa,
went from a Military Air

and then to Asmara in Ethio-
pia, where the Emperor talked

Benjamin A. Smith u, 43, q
former Harvard roommate Of
President-elect Kennedy, has
been tapped to I'LL Senator
Kennedy's Massachusetts SEN
ate seat for two years, until
the next election.
Senator Kennedy'S term runs
to 1854. A Senator will be
elected to I'LL the rest Of the
term in the 1862 election.
Mr.. Smith q former Mayor
Of Gloucester and now a manu-
facturer in the seaport city,
was notified Of the appointment
last night by Senator Kennedy
himself.
Democratic Gov. Foster Fur
colo announced late yesterday
he would name Mr.. Smith to
the Senate "at the suggestion
OF President-elect Kennedy"
Gov. Furcolo said 1t was his
understanding Mr.. Smith
would not seek election to the
Senate in 1862. Mr.. Smith
refused to speculate on his
political plans for two years
hence.

In Palm Beach, Fla, Pierre
Salinger. the President-e elects
press secretary, said he be-
lieved Senator Kennedy would
resign his Senate seat before
January 3 when the new Con-.

January 3 was regarded as
the terminal date rather than
the target date for the resigna-
ton. A resignation in advance
Of January 3 would give Mr..
Smith slight seniority over
other new Senators.
Mr.. Salinger told newsmen
that Senator Kennedy will an
nounce his plans for resigning
from the Senate shortly
within the next few days, pos
sibly later today.
Reporters who were present
