9O-2 Senate Vote
Accepts Treaty

WASHINGTON. Up - The Sen
ate today ratified the U. S.-Jap-
anese Security Treaty by an over
Whelming 90-to-2 vote.
With the Senate proposal, all
that is left to bring the l0-year pa
that is left to bring the 10-year
pact into force is the formal ex-
change of ratification documents.
Japan's ratification became eff
fective last Sunday.
The U. S. instruments of rati-
ficaion will be flown to Hawaii
for President Eisenhower's sigma
ture. From there, they will be
taken to Tokyo for the exchange.
japanese leftists, whose rioting
led to cancellation of EisenhoW-
er's visit to Japan, have threat
ened to blockade U. S. Ambassa-
dor Douglas Macarthur II and
Foreign Minister Fujiyama in
their homes to prevent them from
making the exchange of docu-
mentS.
Today's Senate vote came after
furry of speechmaking sharply
critical of the Administration.
Sen. Lyndon johnson of Texas,
the Democratic leader, said the
treaty itself is in the "best in
terests' of the United States,
Japan and the entire free world,
but said the United States must
shore up free countries with "a
really massive offensive for
peace"
Sen. Russell Long OLA, lead
ing a group of southern senator's
in opposition to the pact, at
tackled what he called its lopsided
provisions in favor of Japan
"We give much and gain moth
ing we do not already have" he
commended.
Long protested that the treaty
binds the United States to de-
fend Japan without Japan's being
obliged to defend this country
outside of Japanese soil.

School Aid Bill Stands
Slim Chance in Congress

WASHINGTON, R-The House
Rules Committee today dealt a
near-fatal blow to any chance for
enactment of federal school aid
bill in this session OF Congress.
By a rs vote it refused to per-
NIT a conference to iron out dis
agreements between House and
Senate versions of the legislation.
Unless the committee changes
its stand, any possibility for final
passage of school aid measure
seems remote.
The House bill calls for 1926 mil
lion dollars a year for four years.
The money is to be used only for
school construction.
The Senate bill is a two-year
$1,900,000, measure giving the
states the option of using the
money for teachers salaries as
well as construction.

President Plans
Reply to Red China
Failure Taunts

HONOLULU, Up - President
Eisenhower was reported today to
be planning to hit back at Red
China claims that his Far Eas-
ern tour was an ignominiouS
failure.
The Presidents rebuttal and a
contention that much good was
accomplished despite cancella-
ton of his visit to Japan will
come, it was understood, when he
reports to the American people
next week.
Eisenhower will make nation
wide television-radio address
within a few days after returning
to Washington. Present indica-
lions are he will arrive there Sat
urday or Sunday.
Announcement of the Presi-
dents plans to go on the air was
made by White House Secretary
Hagerty as Eisenhower, who ar
rived in Hawaii from the Orient
Monday, continued to relax in
glorious weather.
The President talked over his
Far Eastern journey by telephone
Tuesday with Secretary of State
Herter in Washington.
After the 25-minute conversa-
ton, Hagerty reported that both
Eisenhower and Herter feel that
the Presidents visit to the Phil
ippines, Nationalist China and
Korea were completely successful.
Even as the President made
plans for a TV-radio report after
returning to Washington, the Red
China radio was denouncing the
whole Eisenhower journey as an
ignominious failure.

National Guards Top
Brass Will Gather in Nome
For August Convention

Col. Charles Casper, U. S. Prop
erty and Fiscal Officer, and Presi-
dent of the Alaska National Guard
Assn, gave the members of the
Chamber of Commerce previeW
on what is going to take place
here in August when 26 generals
and their staffs from all over the
so states will hold their conven-
ton here.
The objective of the meeting,
stated Casper, is to educate and
orient more people in high places
about the problems of Alaska,
which are uniquely different
from those of any other state.
Those in the Pentagon, he stated,
don't understand the transporta-
ton problem in this vast new
state, or what a complete lack of
road system means in defense.
Casper expressed pride in the
work of the LIST Scout Battalion
and the important part they play
in defense, and how much more
should be done to support them
along the northern coastline of
North America.
Before arriving here the high
ranking officers will be given a
72-hour briefing on the problems
and what to observe. While they
are here, side trips are planned, to
take them in all directions and
up and down the coast, and out
on the Boring Sea. They will OBJ
serve the work of the LIST Scout
troopers, and study local crafts
and arts. After the meeting here
they will travel north to Barrow,
down to Anchorage, and finally
to Juneau headquarters. By then
they will have experienced air
travel in Alaska, and know what
distances mean to the people in
the 49th State.
The convention is headed by
Maj. Gen. VIM. Harrison of Mas
sachusetts.
NWA Chamber President Pearse
Walsh pledged cooperation on the
part of the Chamber in making
this convention a most successful
and memorable one.
Capt j. O'Rourke is in charge
of arrangements here for the
affair.

First DOubleheader
Put Into Orbit

CAPE CANAVERAL, Up - A
spectacular space first" rammed
two satellites into orbit with a
single rocket today.
The doubleheader rocket that
turned the trick was a tWo-sage
or-Able-Star, an Air Force We
hicle making only its second flight.
The second stage fired for
about four minutes, shut off and
coasted for 20 minutes, then re-
ignited for IS seconds to kick the
satellites into orbit.
The two new moonletS flashing
the skies are Transit ia, a sec
ond experimental navigation aid
satellite, and a baSket-ball-Sized
aluminium sphere crammed with
instruments to measure solar ra-
diation.
The latter is called piggy
back" satellite because it hitch
hiked a ride aboard the larger
Transit payload.
Transit liza is a 36-inch ball
weighing 223 pounds. The timer
42-pound package, looking much
like sea divers helmet, was
clamped to it until spring de-
vice separated the pair in orbit.
America tried once before, with
a Vanguard rocket, to fire a pair
of satellites into orbit simultan-
eously, but failed. AS far as is
known, the Soviet Union has not
attempted such a feat.
Confirmation of orbit came 112
hours after launch when the sat
elite duo - the smaller leading
the way = passed over a Seattle
station on their first globe-cir-

O'Keefe, 81, who helped MASTER
mind the S1,219.O00 Drinks rob-
berry, was declared a free man in
Superior Court today - so far as
the Commonwealth of Massachu-
sets is concerned.
The dapper convict who has
spent nine of the last 10 years
in Jail, was given two concurrent
terms of three to four years in Jail
for his role in the nations biggest
cash robbery. However, Judge
Felix Forte found O'Keefe already
had served more time than that
and directed his discharge.
Dist. Atty. Garrett H. Byrne
told Judge Forte - who presided
at the Drinks trial = it was his
belief O'Keefe should not serve
one more day in prison.

forcers freely admit the Drinks
robbery Jan. II, 1850, might not
have been solved without
