FuIIon Bill to Ask
$1.8 Billion for
Highway Program

Representative Fallon. DEM
ocrat of Maryland, said last
night he will introduce a bill
in this session that would
provide Sl.8 billion in Federal
funds for the continuation of
the national highway program.
The legislation, if approved.
would call for an annual ex-
penditure of at least 1925 mil
lion in 1862 and 1868. he said.
The Federal ALLEGATION would
have to be matched on a dol
lar-for- dollar basis by the
States. he said.
Mr.. Fallon made the an
nouncement at a meeting of
the Washington section of the
Institute Of Traffic Engineers.
He said that the national
highway system program. begun
in 1856, is on schedule. He
added. however, that Congress
must again take up the matter
Of highway financing before
June, 1861, when the 1859 l.
cent increase in gasoline tax
is scheduled to expire.
Mr.. Fallon. who is a member
Of the Public Works Commit
tee. said, Il think that we
would be unanimously in favor
Of a method Of securing ade-
quate highways without adding
to the tax burden"

in Wisconsin he would retire
from the presidential field and
get busy on the job of getting
reelected to the Senate in
Minnesota.
But if Senator Kennedy does
not choose to run in Wisconsin,
Senator Humphreys name is
likely to go before the ma
tional convention.
This could become something
of a windfall to Adlai E. Steven
son, twice the party's presi-
Dental nominee. The former
Illinois Governor has no home
base support. His home State
of Illinois seems likely to split
Its vote between Senators
Kennedy and Symington.
PrOxmire May Step In
If he can't win the prize
himself Senator Humphrey
generally is expected to turn
whatever support he has over
to Mr.. Stevenson. an old
friend. This could be the be-

move in a stalemated conven-
ton.
There remains the possibil-
ity, however, that if Senator
Kennedy does not go into the
Wisconsin contest Senator
Humphrey will not inherit all
of the States votes.
Senator Proxmire of Wiscon-
sin might pop up as a favorlte
son candidate. He has said
he doesn't intend to let any
presidential aspirant have the
States vote by default. If two
major candidates enter, Sen
ator Proxmire said, he will not
run. But if only one is on the
ballot he said his name also
would be there.
There also is the possibility
that Senator Morse of Oregon
may enter the primary, as he
is doing in the District and
Oregon.

Williams Won't Seek
9th Term, Aides Say
BY DAVID S. BRODER
Star stah Writer

Political associates of Gov.
q. Mennen Williams, Demo-
crat of Michigan, said today
they expect him to retire this
year rather than seek an un-
precedented seventh term.
The Governor, they said, may
announce his decision before
the end of January.
Gov. Williams, who goes be-
fore the Michigan legislature
today to present his 1865 pro-
gram. was not available for
comment. His press secretary,
Paul Weber, told The Star the
Governor "has not yet made
up his mind" about seeking re-
election, but expects to do so
ain the fairly near future"
Only 6-Term Governor
Gov. Williams is the only man
in Michigan political history
to win six terms as governor.
In the last u wears, he led the
State Democratic Farty from
a minority position to the point
where it controlled every
State e-wide elective Office.
But his latest term has been
marked by a bitter controversy
with the Republican controlled
legislature over State fiscal
policies. Twice in 1859 emer-
gency measures had to be taken
to keep the State treasury from
going bankrupt.
Associates of the Governor in
Michigan and Washington said
the damage done by the tax
fight is one reason he will step
down this year. A second fac
tor. they said, is his feeling that
after a dozen years in Office,
any political leader becomes a
bit "shopworn."
Gov. Williams has been men,
toned as a possible candidate

primaries seemed likely to COL
lapse.
But Robert Kennedy told a
news conference in Manches-
ter, N. H., yesterday he thinks
his brother should stay out of
the Wisconsin battling. Mr.,
Kennedy, who is plugging John
F. Kennedy's unopposed candi-
dacy in the March 8 New
Hampshire primary. said he
thinks Wisconsin is Senator
Humphreys back yard.
1T would be an unfair test, "
he said.
Theory Shows Weakness
This selectivity seemed to
cancel the effect of Senator
Kennedy'S challenge to Senator
Symington of Missouri, Senator
johnson of Texas and others
to meet him in primaries for
a showdown on the popularity
of individual candidates.
Robert Kennedy's announce
ment seemed to signal a car
dinal weakness in the theory
that his brother can win the
presidential nomination by
Evening star., 1960-01-14

demonstrating in primaries
that he is the choice of grass
roots Democrats.
Senators Symington an d
Johnson are staying out Of
primaries on the grounds that
these voting tests represent
only fragmentary sentiment
and do not materially influence
the choice Of the presidential
nominee.
If Senator Kennedy follows his
brothers advice to stay out of
Wisconsin, Senator Humphrey
would seem to be assured OF a
convention run for the nomi-
nation. With Minnesota, Wis
conSin, South Dakota and
stray delegates elsewhere, he
would likely go into the Los
Angeles convention in July
with more than 100 votes.

Wormy Fish
Harmless When
Properly Prepared

JUNEAU = The question of
"wormy fish" was brought to the
Alaska Division of Health Labora-
tories again this spring after
some early fishermen found small
round white worms in their
catches. They asked whether these
made the fish unsafe to eat.
Few worms of fish except some
of the tapeworms will live in
human bodies even though they
are transmitted from fish to man
through consumption of raw or in
sufficiently cooked fish, according
to Ralph Williams, director'of lab
oratory services. He said the
worms are ''more unaesthetic than
unsafe" and that they are of mi
nor importance in view of the
great nutritional value of the
fish food.
Both salt and fresh water fish
are subject to infestation by a
great many varieties worms, he
said, but thorough cooking of the
fish prevents transmission of para
site worms or their larva to man.
Fish is considered thoroughly"
cooked when it flakes easily in the
thickest part or next to the back
bone if it is being cooked with the
bone in it, Mr.. Williams said.
Freezing for "a to 48 hours at a
temperature of 10 degrees cent?
grade or IA degrees Fahrenheit
is considered adequate to destroy
tapeworm larva and prevent infec-
ton, according to an article on the
subject in "Alaska's Health" for
February, 1852, by DR.. Everett
Schiller, formerly a parasitologist
on the Arctic Health Research
Center staff.
Although" he stated, "thor-
ough cooking is generally consid-
cred desirable, the fact remains
that many people prefer raw fish.
Ingrained customs are difficult to
eradicate and, in addition, living
conditions in certain areas of Alas
ka preclude much preparation"

Federal Reserve
Lowers Interest
Rate to Banks

WASHINGTON, Up - The Fed
eral Reserve Bank in Philadelphia
and San Francisco yesterday cut
their discount rate from 4 to 315
per cent.
The rate is the charge when
member banks borrow money
from the Federal Reserve System.
Thus the cut represents move:
ment toward lower interest rates
generally.
A spokesman for the board of
governors of the reserve system
said the action is reflection of
"the decline in inflationary psy-
chology."
This is the first change in the
discount rate since last Septem-
Der when it was increased from
312 to per cent at all of the IL
Federal Reserve banks.

House Committee Outlaws
Suspect Food COlOring

WASHINGTON, R-The House
Commerce Committee Thursday
voted to outlaw food, cosmetic and
drug colors when laboratory tests
show they can cause cancer in test
animals or humans.
A similar prohibition already
applies to food additives.
In approving a bill extending
the anticancer provisions to color
additives, the committee beat
down efforts to permit setting Of
tolerances that would allow ques-
tionable colors to be used in linn
tied quantities.
Secretary of Welfare Arthur
S. Flemming, who strongly backed
the bill, told the committee last
month that scientists don't know
enough about cancer to say how
much or INV little, of a substance
that can induce cancer in test rats
is safe for humans.
