Dear Editor::

Dear Editor:
l have lived in Phoenix for
Is years. No organization has
been as unheard in this town
as the Urban League. Once
an executive secretary did
attempt to go among his race
and earnestly try to help
them. He resigned and in his
place came Mr.. Alton Thomas.
For ten years Mr.. Thomas
has certainly not won many
friends and influenced many
people. He had an opportunity
to hire member of his own
race as his office secretary
but instead a white woman
got the job.
wonder how long this can
go on in fast growing town
like Phoenix. The Phoenix
Urban League has made a
name in the north end of
town, but where we live it is
nothing.
l agree with RepreSe Sentative
Carl Sims that Phoenix Ne
groes need some jobs with
fat pay checks SO we can

Hickey Seeks
Congress Aid
On Expansion

NEW YORK, Nov. / (AP9 =
Branch Hickey today charged
the American League with
breach of faith in it's dealing
with the Continental League
and called on Congress to
protect major league expan-
Sion."
In a statement, the presi-
dent of the Continental League
accused the American League
of reneging on a commitment
by its Expansion Committee to
accept four Continental League
cities, two Immediately and two
later.
Hickey said neither the Con-
tinental nor any other future
group could further expand if
the American League can val
idate the reserve clause.
He said in that case, the
high minor leagues are
doomed and the expansion of
baseball, major league-wise,
becomes otherwise impossible.
ut is now squarely up to
the Congress of the United
States to protect major league
expansion in this country"
Obviously Hickey was calling
on Congress not to give the
reserve clause, cornerstone of
organized baseball, Congress
sional protection.
hickey said the American
Leagues recent vote to grant
two new franchises was not
expansion but extension. In
this action Continental League
franchise holders were left in
the cold.

chise owner would be approved
before the week is out, maybe
Friday. but there are rum
blings, too, Of a stalemate
which could kill prospects of
baseball here in 1861.
The American League orig
inally set November II as the
deadline date for announced
ownership Of Washington's new
franchise, but there is a schism
between contesting groups
which could make a magnifi-
cent mess Of the entire pro-
ceedings.
MI Pressuring for Delay
This thing is playing right
into the hands of the National
League" said one source &C
quainted with baseball's in
volved upper echelon maneu-
vering. ''The National League
is pressuring Commissioner
Ford Frick to force the Amer
ican League to wait until 1862
to play and you can bet Frick
can find a technicality to do it. "
Frick originally was opposed
to the idea of the American
League activating its new fran
chiseS in Washington and Los
Angeles Immediately. President
Joe Cronin of the American
League said, I'D like to see this
thing wrapped up by the end
Of the week." but one club
owner was cautioning today
that You must remember that
Cronin~doesn't have q vote"
Two Powerful Groups
The same owner declared he
would be opposed to a tele-
phone poll to determine the
new Washington franchise e
holder. He felt he could COL
lect the necessary votes to
block such a procedure and
delay action until the an
nounced next meeting date of
the league November II in New
York.

ground would be laughable ex-
cept that it is damaging the

watching a team here next
year, despite that declared in
tention Of the league.
There are two powerful
groups, one centered in New
York's Madison Square Garden,
the other focusing on Pete Que
sada, the local boy who made
good. Not out of it, maybe, is
Jerry Hoffberger, the Baltimore
brewer. All have followings
and the faction which can
claim at the moment that it
has four votes toward the vital
six may be deluding itself.
If Hoffberger doesn't care
to compete, it SINNERS down
to Quesada and Madison
Square Garden. This is ex-
Guiding Bob Rodenberg, whose
plan for public ownership was
announced yesterday. Roden-
berg's proposal seemingly is
stymied by the time factor
which would prevent league
officials from learning quickly
the identity of and screening
his principal stockholders.
The haggling in the back
ground appears to be mounting
every day. The big question
Whats right for Washing
ton?"-may have been lost in
all the pickering.
Resentment Over Webb
There is resentment in some
quarters that Del Webb, CO.
owner Of the Yankees, may
influence the final decision.
Those in opposition to Webb
point out that there has been
enough close association in the
league between the Yankees
and Kansas City's Athletics,
who at last glance were a worse
team than when they latched
onto their franchise five years
ago. Their numerous deals
with the Yankees stripped the
of several fine players.

Not only the United States allies,

. The Cuban case is before the
Organization of American States,

demagogic appeal, had done much
to divide it. Moreover. Mr.. Castro
has not carried out his threat to

Risking atomic war is not
policy which comes naturally to
Western democracies. Always
previously when Mr.. Khrushchev
has brandished his rockets-in

West has taken the line Of re-
SponSibility and restraint.
Now, however, American rockets
are being waved back; and so far,
observers here say with fingers
crossed, the effect appears to have
been healthy.

BY WILLIAM r. FRYE

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-The
Western alliance has adopted
basically new, tough approach to
the Soviet Union-and it appears
to be paying dividends.
This new posture is, Of course,
a response to recent toughening
of the Kremlin's line. The ex-
change was not initiated by the
West. Indeed. the West would
have much preferred to play it
differently.
One result has been to stir seri-
GUS concern here over the possibil-
ity of atomic world war. Not since
the Suez and Hungarian crises of
1856 has there been such fear that
the world was climbing onto the
slippery chute.
Observers are trying to bring
the picture into perspective. They
are studying the sequence OF
events to see exactly what has
happened and why.
Until last May, there was hope
that long-range process of East
West negotiation had begun which
would end in a settlement Of the
cold war. Then came the U-2 in
cident and Mr.. Khrushchev's in
credible performance at the sum-
NIT two weeks later.
Mr.. Khrushchev did not at first
seem to have abandoned the policy
of detente; he seemed merely to
have delayed its execution. He
shelved the Berlin issue, for ex-
ample. But in mid-June, the So
Wet Premier either changed his
mind or lost control of Soviet
foreign policy.
Leaping into a seething cauldron
in Japan, his agents assaulted the
Japanese-Am defense treaty.
On June 81, he pulled his negotia-
tors out of the donation diSarma-
ment parley in Geneva. On July l,
his air force brought down an
American RB-47 reconnaissance
plane over the BarentS Sea.
Then came Cuba and the
Congo. Mr.. Khrushchev actually
had the effrontery to tell the
United States to keep hands off
Cuba, and he claimed the right
to send the Soviet army to the
Congo.
Previously Western policy had
been to let Mr.. Khrushchev sim
mer down after the summit, keep
ing all doors open and giving him
maximum incentive to get back
on the detente trail. Now it
seemed clear that either he could
not or would not return to that
policy voluntarily; he seemed de-

last year, and a new deal was ne
gotiated in Brussels between the
Societe Generale-corporate par
ent of the Union Miniere-and
the future African leaders.
1t was agreed that the new gov
ernment would keep control over
22.5 per cent of the Union Min
iere; a 80 per cent interest In
the Central Bank of the Congo;
UP to 20 per cent in the Belgian
airline SABENA, and up to 40 per
cent in other wealthy companies
such as the UNATRA CTransport),
the OTRACO docks, shipping,
hydro-power plants and the Up
per Congo Railway Co.
That seemed fair enough, but
the Belgians made a mental re-
servation. It was not specified
whether those assets would be
transferred to the central Congo
government or to the provincial
government of the Katanga,
Today, the Union Miniere and
the other firms involved affirm
that they mean, of course, the
Katanga government. That is the
basis on which they are now
backing plans for a secession of
the Katanga.
They found themselves an ally
in the person of Premier Noise
Tshombe, whom his compatriots
up north regard as a kind Of
Quisling. Last year. his Conakat
party staged its provincial election
campaign in close contact with the
Belgian Ucol (Union of Katanga
Colons) and won 81 out Of so
seats. Mr.. Lumumba's MNC party
was not allowed to run because
its leader was then in prison.
Premier Tshombe and his back
