recommendations from lending
countries.
It is long-established policy
that the INF board requires
assurances that potential bor-
rowerS will take steps to solve
the problems that cause their
balance-of-payments troubles
In this sense, there always has
been INF Intervention in
domestic affairs.
Details to Be Worked Out
Officials are vague about
specific voting rules for the
standby credit plan. General
agreement has been reached,
and details will be worked out
later this year.
In practice, officials main
tain, voting formulas are not
important. Given the facts of
a situation, they state, a con-
sensus will be easy to obtain.
They contend that neither
the United States nor any other
responsible nation would ap-
ply for an INF loan without
voluntarily taking steps to
solve its balance-of- of-paymentS
problems.
The important accomplish
ment at Vienna, according to
these officials, was approval
of machinery to permit prompt
action when INF members
agree on the need for loans.
Without the machinery, parli-
amentary governments would
take too long to make needed
currencieS available to the
INF.
By establishing the new plan
now, when the monetary scene
is calm, the INF hopes to
avoid the need for frantic ac-
ton when crises erupt in the
future.

Peace Corps
Rejectskamen

MIAMI, Fla, Sept. 26 (AP).-
A controversial candidate for
the Peace Corps may wind up
as a military draftee instead.
Charles Kamen, 81, of Miami,
was informed yesterday his
Peace Corps application had
been rejected. His draft board
promptly said he will face a
routine call into service.
He had appealed his draft
status as Ia and a hearing
had been scheduled for to-
morrow night. but this was
Cancelled.
THE hearing is no longer
necessary" said Roy Lee Jones,
draft board chairman. "Kamen
remains la and will be drafted
routinely-no sooner or no later
than anyone else"
Kamen's troubles began last
December 29 when he appeared
as an unlimited spectator at a
Miami Rotary Club meeting
and applauded during a club
showing Of the film, Operation
Abolition" The film showed
the House Un-American Activ-
tiles Committee being heckled
at a hearing in San Francisco.
Kamen was elected from the
meeting and said later, II felt
my actions may have shown a
little immaturity, and I regret
them"
Kamen had asked the draft
board to defer him so he could
teach in the Philippines as a
Peace Corps member.
Neither Kamen nor his fam
lily would discuss the Peace
Corps rejection.

United states oomeSClc eco
nomic policies, under some
circumstances.
Officials dispute these re-
ports, which could raise OBJ
stacles to congressional ap-
proval of United States par
ticipation in the new INF plan
IL Nations in Accord
General agree IN ent was
reached at Vienna on a plan
for II industrial countries to
pledge to lend the INF about
Sc billion of their currencies,
when and If needed. The United
States share of the $6 billion
in standby credits would be
about 81 billion.
The INF would borrow the
currencies for relending to
countries experiencing severe
balance = of payments deficits.
If the plan had been in exist
ence last year, the United
States might have borrowed
West German marks and
French francs from the INF
to bolster confidence in the dol
lars soundness.
The United States has been
running large deficits in its
balance of payments because
it spends, lends, invests and
gives away more dollars abroad
than it receives from foreign
sources. Large losses of gold
from Government stocks have
resulted.
Some Have Reservations
Britain and the Unite e d
States, as the main potential
beneficiaries, we're the strong
est hackers of the plan for
INF standby credits. France
West Germany and others ac-
cepted the plan, but insisted on
reservations.
These countries refused to
agree to automatic INF bor-
rowing against the standby
credits. They obtained as
surances that lending nations
will have an important say-So
about use of their currencieS.
France, for example, insisted
that francs must not be used
to finance extravagant govern
ment spending and inflationary
policies in countries seeking to
borrow from the INF.
Can't Veto Loan
United States officials en-
phasiZe, however, that neither
France nor any other lending
country will have the right to
veto loans from the INF.
Such veto power would imply
that the borrower-the United
States, for example - would
have to obtain French approval
Of its budget, monetary policies
and domestic programs.

Rockefeller
 Divorce Plans May Change Political Picture

NEW YORK lzs ne news that Gov. Nelson Rockefeller and his wife are contemplating di- vorce can change the whole na- tional political picture.
 Rockefeller has been potent ial candidate and indeed a front runner - for the Republi- can Presidential nomination in 1864.
 The shock of his split with his wife can only mean reassess- ment of the COP political situa- ton.
 Rockefeller = in spite of di- vorce? Former Vice President Richard Nixon, if he wins cleo tion as Governor of California? :? Sen. Barry Goldwater, the conser- vative?
 Americans are accustomed to family in the White House. They have one now in President John Kennedy, his wife, and children. They had one in Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower and their son, John, and the grandchildren. They had one in Franklin D. Roosevelt, his wife, Eleanor, and their children.
 They had one in President Tru- man, his wife, Bess, and daughter Margaret.
 No divorced man ever has been elected President of the United States.
 Adlai Stevenson, divorced, was the last Presidential candidate to buck the trend. He lost twice to Eisenhower in 1852 and 1856.
 Nobody claims the divorce was the principal reason - in view of EisenhoWer's widespread popu- larity = but it didn't help. The idea of sister rather than a wife and mother as ssthe First Lady, was not a vote-getting proposi- ton.
 It all adds up to minus for Rockefeller's chances of gaining his party's Presidential nomina- tion.

Three Alaskan Housewives Take In the Highlights of New York City

NEW YORK R It's long way from Ketchikan to Broadway but not when ihree Alaskan housewives decide they want to take in the shows.
 Three such visitors are spending week here doing just that Doing bit of shopping, too naturally.
 They are Mrs. Robert Jernherg wife of an attorney; Mrs. Louis Salazar, whose husband is a physi- elan; and Mrs A. A. Lindstrom, wife of a barber.
 1t is the first trip to New York for Mrs. Salazar and Mrs. Lind strom, and they've found the sights range from depressing to highly exciting.
 A couple of months ago Mrs. Jernberg got to thinking it would be fun to fly to New York and see as many Broadway produc- tions as possible. She figured it would be even more fun if some of here friends would go too. Mrs. Salazar and Mrs. Lindstrom weren't hard to convince.
 It's costing them about $l,O00 each. That included three-day sightseeing stopover in Washing ton, D. C., before coming here Sun day. They've had no reason to kick about the cost so far.
 "We have been on the go night and day. said Mrs. Jernberg, sbut it has really been delightful"
 The shows they're seeing are "Camelot,' "Shot in the Dark" :" s'The Unsuitable Molly Brown ? Carnival" and Mary, Nary
 But the women also have tour ed the night clubs, watched the Rockettes perform at the Radio City Music Hall and enjoyed the greatest transportation nickeps worth on earth = the ferry ride to Staten Island They were es- pecially thrilled as they passed the Statue of Liberty.

Mrs. Salazar said she knew how things would look because you see New York in the movies so often." But neither she nor Mrs. Lindstrom were prepared for some things.
 Among them were the crowds on the streets and jams of auto- mobiles. ''I'd sure hate to drive here," remarked Mrs. Salazar. eff I had to live here" she added with wry twist, T think I'd move out
 Mrs. Jernberg said Mrs Sala- gar and Mrs. Lindstruaii cant get over the fact that it's crowd ed all the time" She said they also were impressed by the sub- ways = finding them terrible"
 The women got surprise We'd nesday night Their husbands tele- phoned from Ketchikan and talk ed about 30 minutes. q thought it was a little expensive, prob ably costing $50 or $60. But it was nice" said Mrs. Jernberg.
 And what did the ladies think of the great city in general?
 q wouldn't trade Ketchikan for all of it." said Mrs. Salazar.

Reds Claim Ability to Rocket Warhead Delivery To Any Part of Globe

MOSCOW M Red Star claim ed Saturday the Soviet Union has rocket warheads equivalent to 100 millions tons of TINT, plus rockets that can lift and deliver any sgarhead to any point on the globe"
 The claims were made by the official military newspaper in an article that denounced Western CTS who belittle Soviet rocket ca- pabiiities.
 Premier Khrushchess announced Oct. IT in opening the 22nd So- viet Communist Party Congress that the Soviet Union has 10O- megaton nuclear bomb = equi- valent to 100-million tons of TINT.
 Khrushchev said it would not be exploded in the Soviets latest test series because, If we hap pen to explode it in the wrong place, we might break our own windows"

Possibility of State Going Into the Liquor Business To Be Studied by ABC

KETCHIkAN tR = Jack Davis of the Alaska Alcoholic Control Board said the decision to study the possibility of the state going into the liquor business is just an opportunity to test the feel ings of interested parties. The de- cision, he said, does not neces- sarily mean that board members are for such change.
 Davis, director of the ABC Board and signer of all licenses, said he is definitely not for such state action.
 Government is already in too much business and we don't need any more,n he said in telephone interview here.
 He was in the city to help Gwen Sapp, liquor store owner meet requirements of a license exten- sion for her bar which was burn- ed out. She is being allowed to open bar on temporary basis in her liquor store until she finds new headquarters in which to onerate normally.
