Catholic Joke Bockfires
At Detroit G.O.P.R RoI|v

DETROIT, Aug. 27 (AP).-A
Republican official sent a ripple
of surprise through his party's
State convention today by
opening a report with these
words:
do you know the Demo-
cratic slogan? Hail Mary, YOU

Don E. Ahrens. a Roman
Catholic, made the remark in
a joking manner before launch
ing into a summary of the
Michigan Republican Party's
financial situation. He is

The reference was to the
Democratic national ticket. The
presidential candidate, Senator
Kennedy is a Catholic, his run

Pointing to anti-American de-
monstrations in some parts OF
the non-Communist world, the
presidential candidate said:
1T does us no good to pretend
that all this unrest is created
by a few communist agitators
Instead of making excuses we
should be looking for the
causes"
Examples Cited
Senator Kennedy said there
are many reasons why the
American image "has become
tarnished." AS examples he
cited:
"Our failure to propose any
exciting new programs since
the Marshall Plan is one. Our
fumbling leadership - as DRAM
tized at Little Rock and during
the U-2 uproar - is another.
So was the blight of Mccarthy
ism. when we looked scared and
foolish as a nation"
Senator Kennedy said he be-

the United States was still
aware of its own revolutionary
background.

mankind is in the throes Of a

He urges the National Asso-

In a speech before the associ-

do everything in your power,

leaders, to help bring about a
change in your States election

barred from voting in the ma

Only five States have taken
corrective steps, he added. Ver-
mont and Connecticut, he said,

leges in presidential elections to
former residents who have not
met residential requirements in

Informed that his words
drew criticism from some of
the approximately 1000 listen

was intended.
IF you thin kit offends any,

he said.
Asked if he thought he was
injesting religion into the cam

That was supposed to be funny.
I think that anyone who puts
religion in is crazy"
In Grand Rapids, where the
Democrats were holding their
State convention, Gov. G.
Mennen Williams commented
Don Ahrens' derisive sEblic
reference to religion during a
Republican State convention is

Mikoyon Warns
japan on Bases

MOSCOW, Aug. 81 (AP).-
Anastas I. Mikoyan said today
the presence of American mill
tary bases in Japan might bring
consequences worse than the
atomic leveling Of Hiroshima
in World War II.
Speaking before a group of
visiting Japanese socialists. the
Soviet first deputy premier said
the Russian people sincerely
wish that the Japanese people
would rid themselves Of foreign
dependence" and adopt a pei
icy of peace and friendship with
their neighbors.
The Soviet press agency Tass
said his remarks came during
a meeting at the Kremlin with
Japanese Socialists Mosaburo
Sudzuki, S. Okada, S. Khodzumi
and T. SudZuki. They agreed
that peaceful coexistence be-
tween countries was worth pur-
suing, the agency said.
Mr.. Mikoyan's warning about
United States bases was worded
this way:
"One cannot help but notice
that in Japan there are lnflu-
ential circles who, despite the
will of the Japanese people,
have gone into voluntary COL
lusion with military circles of
the United States and have
surrendered Japanese territory
for foreign military bases that
might lead Japan to an i'm
measurably graver tragedy than
Hiroshima"

A years ago an agreement

CHICAGO. Aug. 27 (AP).-
Senator Kennedy said today
many Americans find it hard
to accept the fact that the
United States has been losing
prestige and influence
throughout the world.
And, the Democratic candi-
date for President, added, these
same Americans find it even
harder to understand why this
should be so.
Senator Kennedy discussed

INTERPRETIVE REPORT

tight money and related issues
lacks the clarity and drama
needed to excite great masses
of voters. Unemployment is rel
atively high by so-called nor
NAL" standards. but remains
well below depression levels in
most parts of the country.
Care for the Aged
Union leaders are trying to
make minimum wage legislation
a major issue, but almost all
union members already are
paid more than the proposed
$1.25-an-hour wage floor and
so would not be affected di-
rectly.
Another issue attracting
great interest among union
policymakerS is medical care
for the aged. Proposals to help
elderly persons pay medical
bills apparently have won con-
siderable support around the
Nation, but this issue has no
more direct effect on unionists
than on other citizens.
The only important issue
this year relating clearly and
directly to unionism is the la
Dor reform law enacted this
year. Union leaders demand the
repeal of some stringent pro-
visions.
But there is no sign that
rank k-and-file unioniSts are
nearly so concerned about this
law as they were about right
to-work" and the Taft-Hartley
Act. Furthermore, some labor
leaders blame Senators Ken
nedy and johnson for letting
"anti-union" provisions Of the
reform law get through Con-
gresS.
