HumPhreyHits Proposal
ByKennedyos 'Phoney'

MADISON, Wis. Feb. 20
(AP).-Senator Humphrey OF
Minnesota says a proposal by
Senator Kennedy, Democrat of
MasSachuset. that both limit
expenditures in the Wiscon-
sin Democratic presidential
primary campaign is as
phony as a SO bill"
Senator Humphrey, who
started a three-day tour of
Wisconsin in his campaign for
delegates to the Democratic
National Convention, said last
night that Senator Ken
nedy's suggestion was pure
poppycock."
Senator Kennedy, who will
oppose Senator Humphrey in
Wisconsin's presidential pri-
mary April 5, made the pro-
posal during a tour of Wiscon-
sin earlier this week.
He said there should be a
limit on the amount of money
spent by candidates and he
would agree to a maximum if
Senator Humphrey would do
the same.
1T is a rather ridiculous
proposal" Senator Humphrey
said at a news conference that
preceded a I'd district Demo-
cratic meeting at which five
Humphrey candidates were
chosen to seek the delegate
posts.
"A political campaign does
not start 80 or As days before
election" Senator Humphrey
said. IF Mr.. Kennedy wants
to give an accounting of ex-
penses let him go back to 1856"
He indicated that Senator
Kennedy had been running for
the presidency since that time.

Is a name the President shares
with many members of the roya,

Names Still Guarded
Names for the baby - he
probably will get four like his
brother and sister - are still
a closely guarded secret. They
will not be announced until
just before the christening ex-
pected to be performed by the
Archbishop of Canterbury in
about a month.

day with air acrobaticS by SO

PreSi d e mt Eisenhower and

Messages came from the

towns and villages.
The Duke of Windsor, the
new Princes great uncle, said
in New York. Il am very happy,
indeed"
Celebrating Britons began to
speculate what titles will be
conferred on the new prince.
To Be Duke of York
Apart from royal prince, he
probably will get none for a
while. According to tradition,
he will eventually become Duke
of York.
Until he is 81, the new prince
will have no income of his own.
Then he will get an annual
government grant of 10000
$4,000. This will be increased
to $4,000 ($70,OOO) a year
when he marries.
The newcomer becomes Sec
ond in line of succession to
the throne after Prince Charles
Princess Anne drops back to
third place, and his aunt
Princess Margaret, steps down
a rung on the royal ladder to
fourth in line.
