For State Labor Chief Post

JUNEAU, Up - The name of
Bjorn Glib johnson has been sub
mitted to the Democratic Central
Committee for endorsement to
become Alaska's new Commission
err of Labor, Gov. Egan said
today.

a-year cabinet post after politi-
cal and policy dispute with the
Governor, had named johnson as
his chief deputy last year.
Party approval of johnson for
the post is expected to be routine,
and would clear the way for his
formal appointment as permanent
head of the state agency.
Johnson, a native of Spokane,
is a graduate of Gonzaga Univer-
sity Law School. He came to
Alaska sic years ago as general
foreman of the Burgess Construc-
ton Co. at Fairbanks.

Wade Rejects
Alaska Party
Senate Candidate

JUNEAU, Up - The filing of
Fairbanks labor union official as
an Alaska Party candidate for the
u. S. Senate was rejected today
by Secretary of State Hugh Wade.
The application of Lawrence M.
Brayton, 80, was returned - with
instructions that he must refile by
petition as a so-called no party
candidate affiliated with the Alas
ka Party.
The petition filing, requiring the
signature of at least 1000 quail
fled voters who pledge to support
the candidacy, is required under
provisions of the new state cleo
ton code passed by the 1860
Legislature.
Brayton, business agent for the
American Federation of Technical
Engineers, was disqualified from
filing as an Alaska Party candi-
date because the group failed to
meet standards set in the code.
Under provisions of the new
law, a political party to be recog-
nized must have a candidate for
Governor Eat the last preceding
general election" who received at
least 10 per cent of the total vote
cast.
The young Alaska Party, organ
lied in 1858, had some legislative
candidates at the last election but
did not sponsor a candidate for
Governor.
Brayton is seeking the Senate
seat now held bp Democrat Bob
Bartlett, who has announced plans
to seek reelection. Brayton's $10G
filing fee, which accompanied his
application for place on the bal
lot was held by the Secretary's
office pending receipt of a new
declaration under provisions of
the new code. The filing deadline
is May 2.
DR.. Lee Mckinley of Palmer
has filed as Republican candi-
date for the Senate in opposition
to Bartlett Bartlett, whose for
NAL filing has not yet been re-
ceived for the Aug 9 primary, is
not expected to have any Demo
cratic opposition for his party's
Senate nomination.

Income Tax Plan Is Dead

DANBURY, Conn, R - The
originator of the pay-as-you-go
withholding tax plan, Beardsley

Connecticut hospital after a short
illness. The noted economist was

man and treaeurer at Macy's in
1884. He said his "job is just to

400 Are jailed In
Attempt to Force
Negroes to Work

JOHANNESBURG, South AT
RIGA, R-Police and troops, backed
by eight armored cars, arrested
400 Negroes in raid on the At
rican township of Duncan today.
The big sweep came as strong
police patrols maintained an I'M
easy quiet in other South Afri-
can cities on the first day of a
week-long work boycott called
by Negro leaders opposing South
Africa's white supremacy laws.
This was a Monday Easter holiday
for most workers, however, and
the real showdown comes Tues
day.
Negroes enjoyed in hotels and
apartment houses appeared to be
on the job, but many of these live
in the buildings where they work
or nearby. Their working was no
indication of the sentiment of At
ricans in native townships.
Hundreds of thousands of Ne
groes who work in the big cities
and environs were caught in the
political squeeze. The government
warned anyone staying away from
work faced loss of their jobs or
even Punishment to native reserves
in the remote interior.
A failure of the work boycott
would be interpreted as setback
for the African Negro Congress
in its campaign to force an easing
in the governments strict segre-
cation policies and gain freedom
for jailed Negro leaders.

Ike Opens American
League Baseball Season
AT Washington Ballpark

WASHINGTON, Up - Outfield-
er Bob Allison of the Washington
Senators caught President Eisen-
hower's American League season
opening pitch today = soft toss
that he took on the bounce.
Almost all the 1860 seats in
Griffith Stadium were occupied
on chilly and breezy afternoon
as the Senators and Boston Red
Sox clashed in the traditional
Presidential opener.
Eisenhower flew up this morn
ing from his golfing vacation
headquarters at Augusta, Ca, es-
pecially for the occasion. This was
his seventh - and final = open
ing day since taking office in
1858.
Eisenhower autographed the
ball for Allison. Then, as has be-
come the habit in recent years,
he Tipped out second ball for
the benefit of photographers.
Jack Kralick, left-handed
pitcher up for his second try with
the Senators, made it a shutout
for the Senators.
Capitol dignitaries were all over
the place.
Vice President Nixon sat with
Eisenhower in the Presidential
box, but he had to work for his
seat. Nixon marched to the center
field flag pole in the customary
pregame ritual and, once there,
helped grounds keeper tug the
rope and raise the national flag.

Moody Takes Office Today
AS Second Alaska State
Attorney General

JUNEAU, R-Ralph Moody, an
Anchorage lawyer and former ma
jority leader of Alaska's Senate,
was expected to take office today
as the states new Attorney Cen
eral.
The 44-year- old Democrat was
named for the $17,000-a-year post
as head of the Alaska Department
of Law last month by Governor
Egan.

resigned as the states first Attor-
nye General to resume his private

sumption of the cabinet post.

day to take up residence in his new
duties. He had resigned from the
Legislature earlier this month,
after his appointment had been
confirmed by the 1860 lawmakers
before the legislative session ended
in March.

ernor Egan's first choices to a post
in the executive cabinet. At the
time of his appointment a year
ago, RAIDER was a member of the

Commenting on Senator
Kennedy of Massachusetts, a

Mr.. Nixon said: IF Kennedy

Mr.. Nixon added:
Anybody who knows him
and I know him well,
knows that in war and peace
he has served his country well. "
Asked about the farm pro-
gram, Mr.. Nixon answered that
he is studying a number of
plans and Il do not consider
myself bound to any school or
any rigid policy"
On the telecast he said that
the program should be within
the broad general guidelines
that the President has LAID

and which will get the farmer
off the treadmill in which he is
presently operating"

That everybody over IS who

eral Government should sub
Sidize him to the extent so
that he could buy it if he
couldn't afford it.
That nobody who doesn't
want or need it is forced to get
it against his will.
That everybody who ought
to have it is encouraged to get
it,"
Mr.. Nixon said he was
against using social security
funds, a program supported by
the Democrats, but that-and
here he said is where he diff
fered with some other Republi-
cans - this was no reason to
stay where we are"
This is irresponsible and it

"Our Man a Hero"


This is a subtle way of say
ing that Senator Humphrey,
who was deferred because of
a hernia, didn't serve in World
War II.
This is a hero" Mr.. Reese
said. This is a heroic man"
AS further evidence of his
mans heroiSm, Mr.. Reese said
Senator Kennedy was showing
up despite doctors orders that
he should have stayed in bed.
In the evening, when the
show moved to the Charleston
area. Theodore S. Sorenson,
Senator Kennedy's administra-
tive assistant. took over. At one
stop, at a Unitarian Church,
Mr.. SorenSon was able to deal
with the religious issue, touchy
here because Senator Kennedy
is a Roman Catholic campaign
ing in a heavily Protestant
State.
Mr.. SorenSon said he's a Uni
tartan, from a family suspicious
of Catholics, who has spent
eight happy years in Senator
Kennedy's employ.
A new approach was brought
in by Mr.. Sorenson. Senator
Kennedy's speech writer's, an
industrious lot, grind out new
speeches for every major stop.
Yet rarely does Senator Ken
needy. or his pinch-hitterS,
quote a line from them. Mr..
son read from the
speeches. They sounded pretty
good-and mentioned national
issues for a change.
New Throat Heard
AS the campaigners moved
from Ravenswood here, through
prosperous country along the
beautiful Ohio River, a new
throat was hustled in. This
time it was Ted Kennedy, the
Senator's young brother.
Ted not only busted of Sen
ator Humphrey quickly -" the
opponent of my brother here
hasn't the slightest chance of
becoming President"-but also
limited that Senators johnson
Of Texas and Symington of
Missouri had flunked their
homework.
Having spurned the primar-
les. Ted said, they don't have
first-hand knowledge of West
Virginia.
Since other Kennedys, and
numerous hired help, are eager
to leap into the game, it's no
wonder Senator Humphrey has
complained that he sometimes
feels he's matched against a
small army.

Nixon Says He'll Defend
Administration Record

CHICAGO. May 2 (AP).-
Retorting to Democratic chal-
lenges. Vice President Nixon
says he has no intention of
divorcing himself from the
record of the Eisenhower ad-
ministration. Nor, he adds, will
he just stand pat on it.
Mr.. Nixon, considered a
shoo-in for the Republican
presidential nomination. talk
ing to newsmen and over tele-
vision. declared yesterday:
Il intend, in the field of
farm problems, in problems
dealing with our cities. in vari-
Gus other areas, to build on
from here and to present to
the American people my own
program for the future at the
same time I defend the poll
cieS Of the past"
Mr.. Nixon emphasized the
farm problem. saying there
must be a new one to replace
one everybody agrees is
wrong. We need a new ap-
proach agreeable to the farmer
and to the Nation as a whole"
FavOrS Medicare Program
Referring to medical aid for
the aged, the Vice President
said he favored a limited nom
compulsory Federal program,
at the same time admitting
that this stand was a departure
from the views of some mem
bers of his party.
Mr.. Nixon hurled a challenge
at Democrats who had criti-
cized him Saturday night by
saying he would never be able
to divorce himself from the Eli
senhower record.
The eight years of the Ell
senhower administration have
been the finest record Of any
administration in history" he
said.
Il happen to be very proud
Of this record" he said again
later. Il helped make it."
Mr.. Nixon asserted that
Democratic policy was I'M
changed since the administra-
ton of Harry S. Truman, add
ing:
The Truman record is one
with which any Democratic
candidate will be saddled. And
I'd be happy to run on an Eli

ord"
In a contest between the Els
enhower and Truman records,
he went on, Il have no doubt
of the outcome"

PARKERSBURG, w. Va,

Over and over again West
Virginisns are told that the
Mass usettS Democrat has
won steadily in the presidential
primaries, and that voters can
give his bandwagon just the
push it needs to insure his
nomination for President.
Senator Kennedys opponent

Democrat of -Minr esota, is
casually dismissed in public
at least - as a man who can't
win the nomination, so why
bother to vote for him?
Matt Reese. executive secre-
tary of the West Virginians for
Kennedy organization, put it
this way:
Don't waste your vote on a
man who cannot be elected"
Copes With Voice Trouble
This reporter has spent a
couple of days with Senator
Kennedy in his mad scramble
to gain West Virginia's favor.
1t was something like watching
a ballet star trying to dance
with a broken leg in a plaster
cast.
Senator Kennedy had the
occupational disease of politi-
cians-he had lost his voice.
Skeptics noticed that Sena-
tor Kennedy managed a few
words everywhere, but that his
voice seemed to improve mirac-
ulously whenever the crowds
were large. Here in Parkers-
burg yesterday. where 1000
showed up for free sandwiches
at something called an OK
roast, he gave a ringing speech
in explaining how he couldn't
talk.
But certainly Senator Ken
nedy suffers less in such a
situation than other politicians.

a powerful bench.

nedy toured the towns along

try hard hit by shutdowns, Mr.

talking to newsmen, shrugged
off the chance he would run for
President, either as a ;epubli-
can or Democrat. Then, asked
about accepting a @. o. P.
draft, he said: The possibility
is so remote, it is not worth
specializing about"
He assailed racial segrega ion
in a speech at the new Uni
versity of Chicago law center.
declaring that Americans who
tolerate racial segregation laws
are breaking faith with the
founding fathers and deserve

ton on birth control to nations

Rockefeller'S visit was to ad-

ton. Secretary General Dag
Hammerskjold spoke there later
and urged caution lest the Gre
alton of too many independent
agencies to handle disarma-
ment and other world issues
sap the strength Of the United

pressed about his presidential

ago that he wouldn't make a
race against Vice President

Richard j. Daley put out feel

swered: 1T would be fantastic. &"
Mayor Daley has denied the
report.
In his talk at the university,
Gov. Rockefeller said:
We did not found this Ma
ton upon any manner of racist
concept, but upon a basic be-
lief in the individual-his worth,
his dignity, his freedom" He
added:

Aside from its poverty
Tanganyika's exports of sisal,
cotton and a few diamonds

principal problem is it's back

and Indians would lead not
only to economic ruin, but to
administrative chaos.
AS reasoned and occasionally
brilliant as he is, Mr.. Nyerere is
still just one man out of a
population of 8 million. The
whites and Indians have con-

somewhat concerned with such

him to be a "mumiami," a vam-

say so, but the veneer of civili-
zation in Tanganyika, as in
many other parts of Africa. is a
bit thin.
