THE POLITICAL MILL
First Voter Test for JFK's Record
By GOULD LINCOLN

In a little more than three
weeks American voters will
go to the polls to elect Gov
errors of two States. many
lesser State officials, legisla-
tors and mayors of cities.
This will be the first oppor-
tunity for the voters to ex-
press their views Of the ad-
ministration of President
John F. Kennedy and his
handling of foreign policy
and domestic affairs. 1t is
true the sampling of senti-
ment will be of the slimmest.
President Kennedy is not per-
sonally involved in any of
the elections. The tests such
as they are lie between the
Democratic and Republican
parties. Each will claim, de-
pending on which side wins,
national trends from the out
come of the Governor contest
in New Jersey. New Jersey
was carried by President
Kennedy in his race with for
mer Vice President Nixon a
year ago by some $4,000
votes. The other Governor
contest is in Virginia, a heav-
lily Democratic State. al
though it has gone Republi-
can in the last three presi-
Dental elections. But the
Kennedy New Frontiersmen
can receive little comfort
from the election of the Dem
ocratic candidate for Cover
nor, the candidate supported
by Senator Harry F. Byrd,
who has never seen eye to
eye with the so-called liberal
Democrats of the Kennedy
administration.
Solely a State Contest
The Democrats. fearing
they may lose the governor
ship of New Jersey, are pooh
pooling the idea that the
result will show any politi-
cal trend against Kennedy
and his policies. They con-
tend it is solely a State con-
test, in which the New Jer-
sey voters will select their
chief executive for the next
four years; that it is a cam
paign based entirely on State
issues, and that their candi-
date, former State Supreme
Court Judge Richard j.
Hughes, little-known before
the campaign, also bears the
burden of mistakes and Dem
ocratic enmities growing out
Of eight years of retiring
Gov. Meyner's adminiStra-
ton. Even so. these same
Democrats frankly admit in
private they will claim ma
tional trend for Mr.. Kennedy
and the Democrats should
Judge Hughes pull out a vic
tory over his Republican OPP
ponent, James P. Mitchell,
Secretary of Labor in the
Eisenhower cabinet. MI.
Mitchell, despite the fact he
has had to campaign on
crutches because of a broken
leg suffered almost immedi-
ately after he won nominal
ton for Governor last Spring,
has so far been rated an al
most-certain winner. Demo-
cratic spokesman insist Judge
Hughes has been gaining in
recent weeks.
The country's two largest
States are the stages for
desperate intra-party strug-
giles. The Republicans are
tearing themselves apart in
California, and in New York

Brown of California. Demo-
crat, and Gov. Nelson A.

Parisians Cry Out "ViYe JacQuelineo

PARIS tR - The cry of "Vive Jacqueline" sounded in Paris to- day amid the boom of 101-guns greeting President and Mrs. Ken nedy.
 Parisians were happy to acclaim the American First Lady as one of their own - an American with French ancestry who once studied in Paris. There were chs and ahs when she appeared, and comments of Belle and "Charmante."
 But Parisans had to look quick ly to see Americas First Lady. The French police gave Mrs. Ken nedy's motorcade fast dash through the Paris streets, reaching speeds of more than 45 miles an hour in the busy traffic.
 One car in the eight-car motor cade nudged woman in the crowd as it whipped up to the curb at baby care center. The woman was unhurt, and she just turned and smiled and went on pressing for look at Mrs. Ken nedy.
 The expected car with a plastic top didn't turn up for Mrs. Ken nedy, and it was hard to catch glimpse of her in closed limou- sine as she went by.
 President Charles De Gaulle himself made special note of "gra- cious'' Mrs. Kennedy in his vel come address. He gave her a per sonal gift, a gold trimmed evening bag and an autographed picture of himself in a silver frame.

natural gas to various bases for power and heat.
 The legislators were told that coal contracts for bases north of the Alaska Range have already been negotiated and that bids have been asked for coal for bases in the Anchorage area.
 In the future, the Department said, all proposals to sell gas to the military in Alaska twill be considered with all pertinent fac tors, including the impact of the loss of coal traffic on revenues of the Alaska Railroad, in mind" One Narcotic Addict
 Unless things have changed, getting high in Alaska is a mighty lonely pursuit. AS of Dec. 31, 1860, there was only one narcotic addict recorded in Alaska by the Federal Bureau of Narcotics.
 The only state with a better rating was Utah where no addict was officially reported. Nation ally there was a total of 44,9O6, with New York heading the list with 20,648.

Japanese Fishing Operations

Sen. Ernest Gruening was told by the State Department that the Japanese government will license no commercial otter traWl fishing operations south of the Aleutians during this fishing season. Gruening's inquiry at the State Department was prompted by talk that the Japanese planned to increased bottom fishing activity south of the Aleutians.
 He was told by William C. Her rington, special assistant for Fish cries and Wildlife, that no Japan csc commercial operations are ex- pected in that area, although Ja- panese research vessels might be sighted there at times.
 Otter traWl gear is a conven- tional Japanese method of fishing for halibut. Unless some other method is adopted, Alaskans can be reasonably sure Japanese operations will not extend into the halibut grounds south of the Aleutians, Gruening was told.
 However, Harrington said, mo such statement can be made with regard to Russian intentions which are as yet totally unascertained.

JUNEAU tR - The State Sen ate ended 212-day partisan wrangle over Legislative Audit Committee reports last night, after it was told the reports shouldn't have been issued in the first place.
 What had promised to be an eye-opening investigation by the Senate when it started the probe Tuesday afternoon settled into tedious routine question and answer session yesterday
 Sen. w. O. Smith wrote an end to the actual investigation by pre- senting an attorney generals opinion which said the Legisla- tive Audit Committee reports were issued in violation of state law.
 Atty. Gen. Ralph Moody said the law establishing the Legisla- tive Audit Committee clearly sets forth that the committee is to is sue no report which has not been approved by at least four of the six members of the committee
 Because the law provides for the prompt filling of any vacancy which might arise on the commit tee, Moody said, the death of one member of the committee does not change the requirement that a majority of four sign a report before it is issued.
 Sen. William Beltz died last fall, leaving one seat on the commit tee vacant.
 Sen. John Coghill, Chairman of the Audit Committee, said it was his contention that with the death of one member, majority of only three members of the com mittee were needed to clear the reports for presentation.
 Still hanging fire is Senate resolution censuring Coghill for allegedly releasing to newsmen material gathered by the Audit Committee which was not includ-

Rebel Leader of Hi- lacked Liner Accepts Aslyum from Brazilians

RECIPE, Brazil & Rebel leader Henrique Galvao conceded defeat today for his seaborne re- volution aboard the Santa Maria and accepted asylum from the Brazilian government.
 The decision was reached in negotiations with Brazilian au- thorities abroad the liner in Re cife Harbor Brazilian marines were in command of the ship and Galvao's thin band of rebels was disarmed.
 At the same time, Galvao faced legal action in a Brazilian court from the hijacked ships owners, who want him charged with homicide, robbery and depriving passengers and crew of their liberty.
 The ships regular skipper, was directed by the owners to file complaints in Brazilian court against both Galvao and Gen. Humberto Delgado, Portu- guese exile in Brazil who said he masterminded the seizure of the Santa Maria.
 Owners Will File Complaints
 The owners, the Colonial Navi- gation Co.,, told Simoes Maia to charge Galvao and Delgado with homicide, robbery, injuries, de- priving passengers and crew of their liberty and damage to the 610-foot liner.
 Maia told for the first time how he and his crew tried tC thwart Galvao at sea even though the ships officers were under gunpoint all the time.
 He said faucets were left open to deplete the fresh water supply in an effort to force landing. He indicated that Galvao's inexperi- enced navigator had been led astray at times.
