BIA Asks Congress for S375,OOO to Replace
 Aging M. $. North Star

WASHINGTON R - Congress is being asked for $375,000 to en- able the Bureau of Indian Affairs to replace it's aging vessel North Star on the Seattle to Alaska run.
 Increased tonnage on its twice yearly, 96-stop run makes the North Star inadequate, the House Interior Appropriations Subcom- mittee has told in testimony re- leased today.
 The funds would be used to activate the Emory Victory, a 10,- 206-ton vessel at Suisan Bay, Calif., available for transfer to the bureau.
 Among other things, the bureau said, the new ship would be safer, handle more cargo and increase the revenue to natives of Alas ka by hauling more reindeer meat and byproducts.

Resolution Calls for State To Provide Transportation For Private Schools

JUNEAU lR - A resolution proposing a Constitutional amend ment to permit the state to pro- vide transportation for children attending private or parochial schools was introduced in the Senate yesterday.
 The proposal would require the approval of the voters in the next general election.
 Early this week, the State Su- reme Court held in 2-1 opinion that such transportation of chil- dren to private and parochial schools was unconstitutional.
 The resolution calls for an amendment to the section which specifics that no money shall be paid from public funds for the direct benefit of any religious or other private educational schools.
 It would add the words: "But the Legislature may provide for the transportation of children to and from such educational inSti- tuition at state expense"
 The resolution was prepared at the request of Sen. George Me Nabb.

JUNEAU LP - Senate Demo- crats called a half to their intra- party infighting late yesterday and gave their full backing to the party's $3.6 million tax pro- gram, paving the way for ad- journment of the 1861 Legislature.
 The day was one of fast-paced action and of intricate parliment- t. ary manuevering by both parties in the upper chamber While the House for the most part, stood idly by, the Senate:
 l. Passed the $567 million gen. eral appropriations bill, after adoption of a last-moment amend ment tacking on an extra $1 mil lion to take care of proposed in creases in teachers salaries.
 The House today refused to concur in the Senate amendments to the appropriations bill after the entire seven-man Finance Committee recommended that the amendments be turned down. That sends the bill into Conference Committee.
 2. Took long step toward scuttling the Democratic leader ships tax program which are ex- pected to confront the state in the years just ahead.
 3. Reversed itself and gave the tax program helping hand with the aid of three maverick Demo- crats who at first had joined the seven-man Republican bloc in de- feating proposed tax increases.
 The passage of the budget bill came on dramatic switch of votes by Sens. Vance Phillips, a member of the Senate Finance Committee, and Elton Engstrom.
 The budget bill was headed for apparent defeat on a 1O-10 tie

COP Setback in Drive to Woo Big City Votes
By The Associated Press

Republicans flexed their mus cles in Texas yesterday, but St. Louis handed the COP a setback in it's drive to woo big city votes.
 Republican John G. Tower, a Goldwater-type Republican, led a field of TO in the Texas special election to fill the Senate seat left vacant when Lyndon B.. Johnson resigned to become Vice President
 The only major question re- maining as the Texas Election Bureau finished counting the votes was who would face Tower, only Republican on the ballot, in the June runoff.
 Although Tower led the nearest Democrat by 136,000 votes, the combined vote of the five leading Democrats was 670,618, more than twice Towers total. The figures would appear to favor a lone Democrat in the runoff.
 If he wins the runoff, Tower would be the first Republican elected to the U. s. Senate from Texas since reconstruction days.
 In St. Louis, Democrat Ray mond R. Tucker won a third, four-year term as mayor over Re publican Ben H. Lindenbusch.
 The Republicans had hoped this campaign would mark the first success of their drive to revive the party organization in the big cities, where the COP fared poor ly in last falls Presidential cleo tion.
 In Aurora, H., life promises to be quieter for the next four years than it has been for the past eight. Paul Egan lost his bid for a third term as mayor.
 Egan - who left public as- sistance rolls to become mayor - was defeated by Jay L. Hunt CT, TO, realtor and retired school teacher.
 The defeat ended eight stormy years of firing police chiefs and feuding with the city council. On one occasion, Egan named a par rot as police chief.

Tax Program
 Passage "Only Course of ActiOn''

JUNEAU R - Gov. Egan said today that legislative passage of the Democratic leadership's $3.6 million tax program is "the only responsible course of action" that can be taken at this time.
 In a prepared statement, Egan said the state will face $15 mil lion deficit in 1862 through the loss of federal transitional grants and road construction and main tenance funds.
 Egan said that without the new taxes, "the next Legislature must either drastically curtail the min imum state program of services now in effect or place a crush ing new tax burden on the state to keep state services at an ade- quate level"
 The governor said claims that the new taxes would create sur plus were not true.
 When viewed against known commitments and public needs and when viewed against the ex- piration of transitional grants, the claimed surplus vanishes. In- stead of a claimed surplus, with out passage of these tax bills, the alternative is certain fiscal disaster"

SOviets Withdraw Complaints to U. s. Spy Plane Flights

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. R- The Soviet Union today formally withdrew it's controversial com plaint against U. s. spy plane flights over Soviet territory.
 Soviet Delegate Valerian A. Zorin told the General Assembly's Donation Political Committee that he was acting in the interest of easing international tension and improving relations between his country and the United States.
 Zorin called for the withdrawal of two other hot issues - Hun gary and Tibet - as a counter move by the free world The United States, however, said these questions were not in the same category as the Soviet U-2 and RB-47 complaints. It re- served it's position as to whether it would push for full debate.
 The U. s. position was stated by Ambassador Charles Yost. Outside the committee, a U. s. spokesman said that the United States would insist on discussion of the Hungarian and Tibetan items in the General Assembly in their proper turn.
 Referring to President Ken nedy's order prohibiting U. S.. military planes from flying over Soviet territory, Zorin said that under the new conditions the Soviet Union does not insist on the discussion" of the spy plane question.

Tshombe Backs Off After U. N. Warning

ELISABETHVILL Katanga, R- President Noise Tshombe of Katanga backed off today from a belligerent anti-U.N. posture after a United Nations warning that new violence against it's forces would bring swift action.
 The capital of this rich Congo province remained tense in the wake of Tuesdays mob outbreak, but fears of a major clash be- tween JUN. forces and Tshombe's supporters diminished.
 Planeloads of Irish JUN. troops poured into Elisabethville airport, and the strongman president was told that any renewal of violence would bring Indian JUN. troops to the capital, a JUN. source re- ported Tshombe strenuously op- poses use of the Indian troops.
 Tshombe met for two hours with the U. N. military chief in the Congo, Gen. Sean McKeown of Ireland, who issued the warn ing. A JUN. spokesman said the president agreed to rescind all the sanctions he had ordered against U. N. personnel in the heat of his address to Elisabeth vile crowds Tuesday.
 This meant withdrawal of Tshombe's orders to his follow CTS to carry out general sabot- age" against the United Nations, to refuse to trade with it's person. nel and to deprive JUN. establish ments of water and electricity.
 The Irish met no resistance from Tshombe's army or police.

PrinCesa Drill Team Pride
OF Pinoys In The Northwest
BY Sandra ArinO

Pride and hopes of Filipino
Americans in the Pacific North
west rest on the abilities and
stamina of 40 youngsters here
making up the only drill team of
its kind in the nation.
And so far, these young people
have admirably faced up to their
expectation as the FYA Princesa
Drill Team and Cumbanchero
PercussioneerS closed out an
other exciting season of parades
and exhibitions.
The marching unit, sponsored
by the Filipino Youth Activities
of Seattle, Inc, added four gilt
tering trophies to their ever-in-
creasing collection. And there's
more to come in the future, es-
peciaIly with the opening of the
Seattle's World Fair-Century Fl
in April of 1862.
What makes this drill team so
unusual?
First of all, it is the only
known Filipino American drill
team in the United States.
Secondly, its roster lists 35
girls from 10 to l6 years old and
"a teen-age boys.
Thirdly, its appearance, pres
entation and manner are unINis-
takably "Pinoy."
The Princesas, initiated three
years ago, are Familiarity known
by their colorful costumes, ac-
centing the Moro culture. They
wear red blouses, black pants,
flowing white malongs or saris
and white beads with their hair
done in a bun.
Their right arm carries bam-
boo pole, used to tap out the drill
teams cha cha and other off
beat cadences.
The Cumbancheros, introduced
for the first time at the Portland,
Ore, Rose Festival Grand Floral
Parade, highlight the Malayan
influence in the Philippines.

BOAC Proposals
Rejected by Strikers

LONDON, July 1S (AP).-A
meeting Of 1000 BOAC main
tenance workers today rejected
proposals to settle a wildcat
strike that has paralyzed the
British Overseas Airlines flights
for four days.
The proposals had been
worked out between union
leaders and BOAC officials in a
12-hour meeting which ended
shortly after midnight.
The strikers object to a re-
cent order increasing the num-
ber of supervisors in the BOAC
maintenance department. The
strike has grounded 40 airlinerS
and BOAC says it is losing 50
million a day in revenue.
