ought to be good enough for an
official travelling alone. The
wives are still out in the cold.
Representative ReusS, Demo-
crat of Wisconsin, this week
dispatched a letter to Budget
Director David Bell, suggesting
that all Government agencies
be urged to make tourist and
economy air travel the general
rule for official travel. The
officials-minus their wives,
unless they buy their own way
would be required to take the
lowest air travel except where
first-class seats were the only
ones available.
. After ALL" Mr.. Reuss said,
"the only thing more you get
in first-class is a little more leg
room and more fancy food and

Representative Rooney, Dem
ocrat of New York, the chair

tions subcommittee that

funds, said he would continue
to push for such an economy

The proposal to provide econ
omy-class "togetherness" for
United States officials travelling
on Government business has
hit a first-class snag.
When Congress gets through
with the idea, the end product
may well be:
l. Government wives will
stay home, or travel with their
husbands at their own expense.
2. The Government officials
themselves will have to travel
in a style less luxurious than
that to which they are now
accustomed.
Secretary of Labor Goldberg
last october proposed that a
Government official travelling
on official business be per-
mitted to apply the value of
the firSt-class transportation
provided by the taxpayers to-
ward the purchase of two
lower-class fares for himself
and his wife.
His point was that wives help
American officials establish
better personal contacts with
foreign officials.
Controller General Joseph
Campbell ruled that the insti-
tuition of such a system would
require action by Congress.
Congressional reaction might
be summed up like this: Ac-
commodations good enough for
a man travelling with his wife

Air Of Unrest
AT Krem|in

LONDON. Jan. II (AP).-
Diplomatic informants reported
yesterday, before today's Prav-
da blast at ex-Foreign Minister
V. M. Molotov, that the United
States and British Ambassadors
in Moscow have detected a
peculiar atmosphere of political
uncertainty lately, but little
evidence to suggest an immi-
nent split or change of policy
in Soviet leadership.
Secretary of State Dean RuSk
said in Washington Monday
that something is going on in
the Kremlin." He said there
were indications some major
policy decision may be in the
works.
In Paris, French official
sources expressed doubt of some
big development. They said
that evidently Soviet Premier
Khrushchev has serious prob
lens at home with agricultural
production and abroad in
strained relations with Red
China, but that it would be
unjustified to conclude that
there are deep divisions in the
kremlin or that Moscow is on
the verge of a spectacular move.
In Moscow, the Soviet Com
muniSt Party's top theoretical
publication, KommuniSt, re-
vealed yesterday that Mr..
Khrushchev's drive against the
so-called Stalinist personality
cult is apparently causing some
people to doubt Communism.
Kommunist did this by pub
fishing for the first time a full
text of a speech top propa-
gandist Leonid Ilyichev made
last month. 1t criticized re-
cent attack on Stalinism as
being so strong that it called
the basic laws of Communism
into question.
The attack was right, said
Mr.. Ilyichev, but the method
would lead only to serious
mistakes and to doubts of the
whole political economy of
socialism (communiSm)

Legislators Learn of Differences
Between Pay and Play Pinbo|I
BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG
Star Staff Writer

Members of the House Com
merce Committee are getting
educated in the electronic de-
vices used to make a fast, if
. illegal, buck.
AS the lights flashed and the
wheels clicked yesterday, the
legislators were lectured on the
gambling use of the innocent
appearing pinball machine.
Samples of strictly amuse-
ment device and of its gambling
counterpart were displayed in
the committee room. The prin-
cipal differences between the
two types, the committee
learned, were concealed in a
panel behind the bright lights.
On the non gambling ma
chine, a few simple wheels and
wires were fixed into the back
panel. On the gambling ma
chine. the same panel looked
like the control section of an
intercontinental missile.
Lawyer Gives Lecture
Their lecture on the develop
ment of the pinball machine
from a 10th century toy to a
Goth century multi-million- dol
lar racket was delivered by Ru-
fus King. a scholarly looking
Washington attorney, who
dropped stacks of dimes into
the machines to illustrate his
testimony.
Mr.. King, chairman of the
legislative committee Of the
American Bar Associations
Criminal Law Section, gave the
legislators the bar associations
whole hearted Endorsement of
the anti-gambling measure now
being considered by the Com
merce Committee.
The Senate-passed measure
would close loopholes in the
1851 Johnson Act which out
lawed interstate shipment of
slot machines.
Like Attorney General Rob-
ert F. Kennedy. the OPEN
ing witness, Mr.. King stressed
that the ingenuity of the gam
bling device manufacturers had
led to successful circumvention
of the 1851 law.
Mr.. King, whose firm rep
resents a leading manufacturer
of non-gambling machines, said
the demonstration he put on
for the committee stemmed
from this clients cooperation.
100000 Gambling Machines
He estimated that approx
mately 100000 of the gambling
type pinball machines are now
being operated in this coun-
try, although they are illegal
everywhere except in Nevada
and four counties of Maryland.
He told the committee these
machines crossed a quarter-of-
a-billion dollars annually for
their operators.
The racketeers, he said, move
in at the distribution level
where the possibility of $400
a week from each location
"lends itself to organization
and muscle"
He explained that while the
money poured into the pinball

machine was clean money" as
distinguished from the profits
of narcotics, it became dirty
when it was used to buy police
when the syndicate gets
hold of this operation" he
said, they'll put a police cap
tain on the payroll, and he's
hooked. Then, they use his
compliance in the gambling
operation as the entering wedge
for narcotics and vice"
Explains Rigging
Mr.. King showed how the
pinball machines were rigged
for gambling. Like it's amuse-
ment counterpart, he explained,
the gambling version of the
machine awards free games to
the player. But the player of
the gambling machine doesn't
have to play off the games
he has won as the amusement
player does.
Instead, the gambling ma
chine is equipped with a spe-
cial circuit which knocks off"
the free games shown on the
blackboard and with a meter
which computes the number of
games thus removed. The To-
cation owner then pays off the
winnings and the syndicate
operator of the machine checks
how much he has paid out by
the record on the meter.
"The machine is controlling
payouts again. just as effec-
lively as if it still dropped the
cash right into the winners
hands," MIR. King told the
committee.
Machines Favor the House
Other gadgetS in the thicket
of wires concealed behind the
back panel shift the odds to
make sure that the house al
ways gets the better of the bet
tor. t
Another principal difference
between the play game and the
pay game, Mr.. King explained,
was that the customer at the
gambling device can stick in
a number of coins to raise the
odds and the hoped-for profits
before he ever sends a single
ball on its route around the
track. In the amusement device,
the customer puts in his nickel
or dime, gets the five balls for
the game and wins nothing but
a free game if he's lucky.
Asked whether the four Mary
land counties would be exempt
from the proposed law, Mr..
King said he thought they
would. This differed from At
torney General Kennedy's in
depreciation. Chairman Harris
of the House Commerce Com
mittee said the question of
Maryland would be thrashed
out at further hearings, which
resume tomorrow.
