Johnson Gets
New Mexico
Delegate Edge

SANTA FE, N. M, June 4
(AP).-New Mexico Democrats
today named to the national
convention a 17-vote delega-
tion preferring Senator John
son of Texas over Senator Ken

leo, estimated the delegate
division about 912 votes for

Senator Kennedy.
Committee Posts Filled
The convention reelected
national committeeman Tom
Brown of Eddy county and
national committeewoman Des-
sic Sawyer of Lea county,
both by acclamation. The
State central committee re-
elected Seaborn Collins, for
mer national American Le-
gion commander, State chair
man by acclamation.
Senator Kennedy, who ad-
dressed the convention, said
Russia broke up the summit
conference because it believed
'the preSSures and threats of
the cold war" were shifting
world power its way.
He said the SovietS believed
more could be gained through
the cold war than bargaining
as equals at the summit"
Senator johnson was not in
New Mexico personally, but one
of his most influential boosters
for the Democratic presidential
nomination, Sam Rayburn,
longtime speaker of the House,
spoke to the convention in be-
half of his fellow Texan.

"The hySterical TRADE of |
Premier Khrushchev against |

one of the signs of an uneasi-
ness which grips us and the

Cites Lost Prestige
The veteran of 16 years in
Congress blasted the Republi-
can "cobwebS of inaction over
a period of seven long years
which have led us to a position
when the head of a foreign
power can insult the President
of the United States"
These cobwebS must be
swept away by a dynamic,
tough and vigorous Democratic
administration which dares to
do the things which are needed
to restore the lost power and
prestige of the United States"
He said there should be more
meetings with the Communist
world at all levels, but let us
never meet again under the il
lusion that platitudes are

personal goodwill can overcome
irreconcilable conflicts of in

By J. A. OLEARY
Star stan Writer

The Senate civil rights battle
may go on for 10 more days
and end with acceptance of a
moderate House-approved bill.
This was a definite possibility
today as weary Senators looked
forward to a Sunday of rest
after the longest continuous
session in Senate history.
At noon today the Senate
had been going around the
clock for 100 hours, except for
one 15-minute recess. This far
surpasses any previous endur-
ance contest.

he would ask for a recess late

period from midnight to

demonstrated how faithfully the
Northern Senators are sticking
to their posts. at the expense
of a good nights sleep.
There were three quorum
calls, at 1918, 3:06 and
5:33 am. and only one of them
took more than 20 minutes.
This is faster than the Senate
usually gets a quorum in the
afternoon OF a normal day.
Senator Harry F. Byrd, Demo-
crat OF Virginia, began his regu-
lar turn as the Southern speak,
er shortly before 6 o'clock this
morning and held the floor for
2 hours and Al minutes.
Then Senator Ellender, Dem
ocrat of Louisiana, spoke for
most of the remainder of the
morning.
House Debate March 10
The House is scheduled to
begin debate on it's own civil
rights bill Thursday, March 10.
and some observers believe it
may reach vote by March Is.
All indications are the House
will approve a modified version
OF Attorney General Rogers
court referee plan for protect
ing voting rights. and a school
indignation section that is
milder than the Senate provi-
sion. If this happens there will
be strong sentiment in the
Senate to accept such a pro-
gram.
A bill along these lines
would not meet the wishes of
Senate liberals, or of the IS
Southerners who are expected
to oppose any legislation. But

HAVANA, Mar. 5 (AP).-
The government limited today
at sabotage in the French
munitions ship disaster on the
Havana docks but independent
reports said an unloading &C
cident may have caused the
shattering blasts.
Newspaper estimates of the
dead in the blast yesterday
ranged from Al to more than
so, and a television station sug-

There were no official casualty
figures.
American Reported Held
The semioficial newspaper
Revolution said today that an
American passenger aboard the
munition ship was being held
for investigation. 1t said he
took photographs of the ship
en- route to Havana. The
United States Embassy said it
had been unable to locate the
passenger, whose name was
given as Don Chapman of
North Bend, Nebr., and ex-
pressed belief he was under
detention.
After a midnight emergency
cabinet session, President Os-
Waldo Dorticos told a nation
wide TV audience the explo-
sions aboard the freighter La
Coubre "had all the character
isticS of a barbarous and GRIM
inal attack on the people of

Ten rescue and cleanup work
ers were injured this morning
by two small explosions as they
sifted through the dockside
wreckage. Police said the
workers accidentally set of
two hand grenades which ap-
