Republicans and Democrats are
fighting, not for control of the
Senate, but for the election this
fall of United States Senators who
will prove party strength.
Already, both parties have
found appealing names Kennedy,
Ribicoff, Mccormack, McGovern,
Gaylord Nelson, Mike Stepovich
and even Rockefeller in Ar
kansas.
Democrats are invading New
England and the Midwest. Repub-
licanS are challenging Democratic
lncumbentS in the Far West and
South. Party leaders are cycling
the impact Of congressional as we'll
as gubernatorial races on poten-
tial Senate candidates. They see
results as tests of Republican
claims of "resurgence" and Dem
ocratic confidence in President
Kennedy'S popularity.
Even the most optimistic Repub-
leans with hopes of deposing IL
Democrats - don't pretend they
can emerge from the election a
Senate majority. Democrats now
hold "a of the 100 seats against
36 for the Republicans.
But Republicans polled infor-
mally here think they can win in
Colorado, Idaho, Alaska, Okla
homa, Wyoming, Pennsylvania
and South Carolina. They don't
see why they need to lose in Ne
vada, Missouri, Hawaii, Oregon
and Massachusetts,.
Democrats want Connecticut
and New Hampshire badly. They
see chances to unseat Republicans
in North Dakota, Wisconsin. Ken
lucky, California. South Dakota,
Kansas, Indiana and Maryland.
The Perfectly Sofe"
From the distorted distance of
Washington, eight Democratic
and four Republican incumbentS
seemed perfectly safe to spokes-
men for both parties here. They
were Democratic Senators Erwin
of North Carolina, Hayden Of
Arizona, Lausche of Ohio, Long
Of Louisiana, Magnuson of Wash
ington. Smathers of Florida, Tai
madge of Georgia and Hill of
Alabama. Safe" Republicans were
Senators Aiken of Vermont, Carl
son of Kansas, Hickenlooper of
Iowa and Javits of New York
unless New York'S Mayor Wagner
runs. one Democrat added.
No candidate dared be SNUG.
Opposition is always serious"
said safe" Senator LauSche.
And I have primary opposition
from labor leader and from a
man who says he is ordained by
God to sit in my seat. I think
that is serious"
Here are preliminary develop
ments in campaigns for Is seats
held by Democrats and Is by
Republicans seen as unsafe" by
men who make living from pol
itics.

Revenue Loss

Sir Roy's reasons for preserving
the Federation are both emotional
and economic. Like other whites,
ne feels that under white rule,
the Federation can prosper best,
and Africans can be educated
gradually to take more RESPONSE
bility.
And economically, Northern
RhodeSia, geographically a part of
the Congo's Katanga, is the richest
of the three parts of the Fedora
ton. Loss of its revenue could hurt
the rest of the Federation's
economy.
Ironically enough, Sir Roy who
is violently against Northern
Rhodesia's secession-is a sup
porter of Katanga's secesSionist
leader Noise TShombe.

THE FOREIGN SCENE

cent of China's warnings in 1850
preceding its entry into the
Korean War.
Most observers believe, however,
that the situation is different this
time. China'S borders are not re-
motely challenged, and it is doubt
full if China would receive help from
the Soviet Union as it did in 1850.
In fact, a Soviet delegation in
Hanoi last week spoke in consid-
erably milder terms about the sit
uation in South Wet Nam than
did the Chinese.

Elsewhere

ALGERIA - French and AL
gerian leaders have all but COM
pleted their talks on a cease fire
in Algeria. An announcement is
expected soon to end the seven
year-old war, and lead to eventual
independence for the North Afri-
can state. Riots and killings con-
tinued in Algeria, however, despite
increased French efforts to stem
the terrorist acts.

by three former Republican Gov
errors. Grandson of a State Gov
ernor, Mr.. Hawley defeated Sena-
tor Church two to one in a race
for the State Legislature. Good
news for Democrats was that Re
publican Gov. Robert E. Smylie
was in the gubernatorial, not SEN
atorial race. A 1860 Democrat poll
indicated Senator Church was
popular. National party buildup
of him should be helpful -oppo-
Sition of private power companies,

Representative William w. Scran-

Democratic Chairman William j.
Green, jr. runs, Senator Clark will
have a tough primary. Mr.. Green
and Gov. David Lawrence are re-
ported cool to Richardson Dill
worth, Philadelphia mayor, as a
candidate for governor, sharing
the fear of that Dilworth and
Clark cast the same image and
would not help each other.
j. w. Fulbright, Arkansas
There's Republican talk of Winth-
rop Rockefeller, but more for
governor than for senator. Dem
ocratic Gov. Orval FaubuS is run
ming for governor. Some Fulbright
men fear Mr. Faubus might talk
any formidable opponent into
running against Senator Full
bright instead of the governor.
Now, the FaubuS primary opposi-
ton is Sid S. McMath. considered
left of Mr.. Faubus and right of
Senator Fulbright.
Ernest Gruening, Alaska Re
publicans hope and Democrats
fear that former Republican Ter
ritorial Gov. Mike Stepovich
will run. Senator Gruening barely
defeated Mr.. Stepovich in the last
election. Richard M. Nixon carried
Alaska in 1860. The governors
race will influence the Senate
results Republicans insist Demo-
cratic Gov. William Eagan is in
serious trouble with the legisla-
ture. Democrats say Mr.. Eagan
is very popular.

man, are campaigning for the
Johnston seat. Mr.. Nixon almost
took the State away from Presi-

Shaw Credo

A critic recently described me as
having "a kindly dislike of my
fellow creatures" Dread would
have been nearer the mark than
dislike; for man is the only animal
of which I am thoroughly and
cravenly afraid. I have never
thought much of the courage of a
lion tanner. Inside the cage he is
at least safe from other men.
There is less harm in a well-fed
lion. 1t has no ideals, no sect, no
party, no nation, no class: In
short, no reason for destroying
anything it does not want to eat.

teen Self Sketches.

Russion Preparation

The jubilation over Col. Glenn's
success is inhibited in high circles
by an awareness that the Rus
slams are in the final phases of
preparation for a new space ven
ture and that the Glenn &C
complishment may be topped at
any moment by four man Soviet
orbit or some other trump of
substantial dimensions.
But there is also an awarenesS
that RuSsia's string of space sue
cess, made possible by the develop
ment of a large military booster
with great lifting power, must
shortly enter a new phase which
may hold less appeal for the
Kremlin. With four-man orbit,
the military booster will have
reached the approximate extent
of its capacity for space feats and
the Russians will be faced with
the necessity to develop a new
and much larger missile like the
United States Saturn if they are
going to make serious effort
to go to the moon and back.
Such a vehicle is, Of course, ire
mendously expensive and has lit
tie military application and it is
reasoned that the Russians may
be reluctant to make the invest
ment.
The Mounting Expenses
The dismay felt here at the
mounting expense of the moon
race and the prospect that some
$40 billion will go into it before
the mission is accomplishments
haps in 1967-muSt also be re-
Elected in the Kremlin where
money is even tighter.
One of the Presidents bets in
making his decision last winter to
race for the moon was that a firm
effort by the United States to take
the lead in space would induce the
Russians to a warmer view of CO.
operation than they would be likely
to hold if they felt the initiative
were going to be left to them.
When Mr.. Kennedy went to meet
Premier Khrushchev in Vienna
last June, he took with him pro-
posal for joint space activities but
never mentioned it because the
general atmosphere seemed so
sour.
Merging Lunar Progroms
There have been a number of
informal talks between scientists
of the two countries on the posi-
bility of cooperation. On one of
the most candid of these occasions
one of the Russians remarked that
without the Cold War race into
space the scientists in neither of
the countries probably would be
able to get the money they needed
for experiments. Every invitation,
including one to join in the Tiros
weather satellite program and in
the operation of tracking stations,
has been rejected by the Russians.

mistic, in preparing the new pro-

Family SOL Assets Picture
Now Clear, Receiver Says

(No bulletins nave been
sent the shareholders so far,
they said, because they have
been begged down mainly in
ferreting out the first, second
and third mortgages of the
company, and because of the
cost of correspondence
What Of the future? Both Of
ficials were venturing no
guesses, but offered a few
SOLDERING notes:
"On October 81 (we) acquired
all of the stock of eight cor
porations, said to be wholly
owned subsidiaries of Family.
(We) are now tracing the
activities of these corporations
which were shown on the books
of Family to be indebted to it
(by) approximately $4,000, 900" "
But, it was added:
Assets owned by these cor
porations, however, may fall
considerably short of this
amount"
The eight corporations de-
Scribed as subsidiaries owned
second and third deeds of trust
(mortgages) secured on real
estate in Maryland, the Dis
trict and elsewhere. In addition
there are 81 parcels OF land,
most of them improved by
dwellings.
Mortgage payments and rem
tails "are being collected dill
gently and regularly and every
effort is being exerted to main
tain them on a current basis, "
Mr.. Stern said.
Speaking of the $50 loans
which had been lying dor
mant" for a year, Mr.. stern
added: I'VE have revitalized
these investments, have re-
quired prompt payments, so
that when we put the package
out for sale, their value will
have been enhanced consid-
erably."
In addition, a life insurance
company, clasSed as one of
these subsidiaries, was described
as "a growing part of the
assets" and one having an in
dependent value as an insur-
ance company" by Mr.. Belts.
Also Mr.. Belts said, the debt
of a Provo, Utah savings and
loan firm to Family is con-
sidered an asset. There is diff
ference of opinion on the
amount of the debt-with Fam
lily claiming $150,000 while the
Utah firm says it's $4,000, said
Mr.. Belts.

AU Dismisses
Student for
Hiring Sub

An American University STU
dent was dismissed from the
school last week after hiring
another person to take a final
examination.
The hoax was discovered dur
ing a chemistry final. The STU
dent entered the classroom with
the ringer in the hope that
the extra "class member" would
not be noticed among about IS
students taking the test.
The exam proctor, however,
noticed the man, approached
and challenged him. The man
then left. He was followed and
queried by the assistant proc
tor. The man refused to iden-
tify the student.
, Meanwhile, the professor in
charge, by questioning students
around the ringers seat, iden-
titled the student, who ad-
mitted the plot. The student
was then dismissed.
University authorities refused
to disclose the names of any of
those involved.

would be held this week.
The bill technically has been
in conference since Congress ad-
journed last September.
Senator Bible said he dis
cuSsed prospects for a confer
ence with Chairman Mcmillan
of the House District Commit
tee last Friday. Mr.. Mcmillan
was out of town most of last
week and a conference could not
be set up.

ious," Senator Bible said, ito
reach settlement. We con-
slider this top-priority legisla-
ton"
Inc Dill could produce as
much as $23 million in addi-
tional revenue for the District
Additional taxes to be consid-
cred in the conference would
include those on alcohol and
cigarettes, an increase in the
sales tax from 2 to 3 per cent
and a tax on hotel rooms. The
bill also could increase the Fed
eral payment authorized from
$32 million to $36 million and
bring the District into the pro-
gram of Federal school aid tc
