Bobby Darin's variety show,
which preceded the Paar
travelogue, was a special" in
the classic form: Lots of music,
singing and dance sequences,
dramatic settings and a comedy
monologue by a guest star-in
this case, Bob Hope.
DARN is an ambitious young
man with an attractive voice
and the poise Of Perry Como.
His style seems a composite Of
Sinatra and Crosby with a
dash of Donald O'Connor. And
this isn't bad.
Singer Joanie Summers was
around to add some feminine
and high notes to the pro-
ceedings while Hope tossed off
a series of Washington wise
cracks, retreaded to fit a

The Friday night Jackie

sound more like a soap opera

assorted CHS production brains
all day yesterday. Reports that
leaked out varied. One said
that Gleason would drop the
idea Of a gameS-playing panel
show and convert the half hour
into a conversational half hour
with name guests. Another
said he'd continue on solo. Still
another said the panel show
would go on.
Meanwhile, the panel men,

when Jackie abandoned the

a little trouble locating the sub

sound track was q bit fuzzy.
Yet it was q fairly enter

escorted us along some well
trod tourist paths was loaded
with bright and often illum-

He noted in passing an Ital-
ian custom of putting water in
the bottom of ash trays and its
effect on good cigars. He told
Of transparent plastic plumb
ing in East German homes. He
showed the problem of riding
a North African camel and of
fighting a baby Spanish bull.
When a clip Of film showed
Paar' and family gawking at
the Coliseum, Jack remarked
crisply: That has stood there
for centuries. New York would

and consequently the admin
istr-tion will not look with
favor on any sizable pay in
crease.
However, since the admin
istration does want pay raises
for appointive officials as we'll
as key scientists, engineers and
executives, it is expected to go
along with a modest increase
for classified and postal
workers.
Another factor that will help
the pay raise cause is the ex-
pectation that Congress will
approve a postal ratI increase.
This has always helped the
chances of postal and classi-
fled employe pay raises.

RightistsR Rap
Brazil Action
On Soviet Ties

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil,
Nov. Is (AP).-Angry congress-
men collected "A signatures to-
day for a motion of censure
of Foreign Minister Francisco
Santiago Dantas for renewing
diplomatic relations with the
Soviet Union.
The rightist group in the
Chamber of Deputies was only
six short Of the necessary so
signatures to bring a motion
to the floor. but still far short
of its self-imposed goal of 78.
Leaders of the conservative
organization called the Demo-
cratic Action Group, which
claims 155 of the 326 members
in the chamber, said they
would not present the motion
unless a majority of their
members went along.
Conservatives Angered
The conservatives we're an
gered at what they called Mr..
Dantas' fast one"-his an
nouncement Thursday that an
agreement to resume relations
with Moscow already had been
signed when the chamber was
only expecting him to report
on the status of continuing
negotiations.
Prime Minister Tancredo
Neves. who was reported to
have favored a delay in an
nouncing resumption of rela-
tions after a 14-year break,
came to Mr.. Dantas' defense.
He said restoration of rela-
tions was a realistic act, which
does not imply the least con-
cession to the ideologies and
policies of the Soviet Union.
OF the large nations of the
world. only Brazil had no
diplomatic or commercial re-
lations with the Soviet Union. 4"
Mr.. Dantas brushed aside the
congressional criticism. He said
there was nothing in the con-
stitution requiring congress
sional approval of diplomatic
relations.
Some critics said Mr.. Dantas'
act was i'll timed-coming Just
before Brazil pays traditional
homage next Monday at the
tombS of soldiers slain in a
Communist uprising in 1885.
May Boycott Ceremony
Jaime Cardinal de Barros
Camara, Roman Catholic arch
bishop Of Rio de Janeiro, was
reported considering boycott =
ting the ceremony at Rio de
Janeiro Cemetery. Many Ro-
man Catholic churchmen de-
nounced Mr.. DantaS' action.
Gov. Carlos Lacerda Of
Guanabara State (Rio de
Janeiro) said the ceremonies
would be an "act of cynicism"
and that he would not attend.
President Joao Goulart also
was reported to have decided
not to put in the usual appear
ance at the ceremonies.
Several leading figures sup
ported Mr.. Dantas' action,
however, among them conserv-
ative Gov. Juracy Magalhaes
of Bahia State, the centrist
Gov. Magalhaes Pinto Of Minas
Gerais State, conservative Gov.
Carlos Carvalho Pinto of Sac
Paulo and leftist Gov. Leonel
Brizzola Of Rio Grande do Sui.

local union people brought into
Washington for the pay raise
rallies, etc.
Mr.. Doherty has proposed to
fellow postal and Government
employe unions in the AFL-
CIO that they contribute a
total of $500,000 to be used
by the AFL-CIO Government
Employees Council for the con-
certed pay raise drive.
Under Mr.. Doherty'S pro-
poSal, the three largest Gov
ernment employe unions in
the council-hiS own union,
the United Federation of Postal
Clerks and the American Fed
Grafton of Government EN-
ployes-would each contribute
100000 or a total of $500, 900.
The remaining 100000 would
be contributed in smaller
amounts by the other unions
in the council.
The reaction to Mr.. Doher-
tvs proposals has been mega
tive. The various unions in
tend to spend a considerable
sum of money, but they would
prefer to do it on their own
rather than in concert with the
other organizations.
Also they feel that establish
ment of a $500,000 pay raise
fund would lead to SID S h
fund" charges from opponents
of pay raise.
Mr.. Doherty declares his
union will spend as much
as it feels is necessary to
secure postal and Government
employe pay raises, regardless
of what the others do. Of
ficials of the other unions in
dicate that they, too, expect
to spend plenty of money. In
fact it wouldn't be surprising
if a total Of $500,000 were
spent in connection with the
pay raise drive by all the
groups conc 1rned.
+ y
MODEST RAISE IN OFF
ING - Although the unio r
leaders are seeking substantial,
pay raises for postal anc
classified employees, indications
are that the increase will bt
a modest one - something
around 5 per cent. Posta
workers may get little more
: than that but not much.
, The chances favor a Fedora
pay raise next year. However
President Kennedy reported!
will send a balanced budget re-
quest to Congress in Januar!

be staged particularly during
the Lincoln and Washington
birthday holidays when most
members of Congress will be
home.
In March the various local
leaders of the unions will con-
verge in Washington, where
the postal and Government
employe groups will stage huge
pay raise rallies, similar to
those of two years ago. During
this period the local union
people will visit their Repre-

support for pay raises.

Dominicans waited today for

-unveil his plans to bring polit-

Caribbean nation.
~Mr. Balaguer and opposition
Headers conferred again today
but there were indications of
disagreement on a government
formula to bring political tran
guilty to this turbulent nation.
= The meeting took place
among mounting reports Mr..
,Balaguer soon would announce
"a new formula, presumably a
coalition.
: Leaders of the opposition
factions - the National Civic
Union, the 14th of June move
~ment and the Revolutionary
sParty-had met with Mr.. Bala-
-guer yesterday in the wake of
mob violence and looting of

friends of aSsassinated Dictator
1GeAeralissimo Rafael L. Tru-
jillo remained in key positions
of the government.
The last of the Trujillos left
this week after the Dominican
sair force thwarted a possible
Trujillo resurgence and United
States warships appeared off
the coast.

Gsecutive day, came under a

The Revolutionary Party
leaders arrived from Venezuela |
last month and remained large
ty silent until the last several |
days. They are not known to |
have a large following.
TrujiIlo Withdrawals
Meanwhile, reports circulated |
that the Trujillos withdrew |
millions of dollars from Do
minican banks before taking up
exile in the United States and
Europe.
The anti-Trujillo radio sta
ton Voz Del Tropico charged
that Gen. Jose Arizmendi Tru-
jillo, brother of the late die
tator, withdrew 50 million in
United States currency from
the State-owned Bank of Re-
serves before flying to the
United States on Monday.
Other sources claimed it was
$7'million.
The station contended the
Dominican peso had sunk on
the international market to a
fraction Of it's official rate be-
cause of low foreign exchange
holdings. However, these were
known to have been drained |
by the dictator in building up
the Dominican armed forces
during his feuds with Fidel
