on retirement to designate
spouses for survivorShip bene-

snook up ABOUT, 1t is the defeat
Of the Presidents medicare bill.
Representative Kirwan of
Ohio. chairman of the Congress
sional Campaign Committee,
was so agitated during a lunch
con address yesterday that he
claimed william Mckinley sS
one of a long list of great
Democratic Presidents.
There are several questions
the New Frontiersmen haven I
been able to answer.
--- No Market Seer
Walter w. Heller, chairman
Of the Council of Economic Ad-
visers, pleaded that it was the
better part of valor, wisdom
and honesty" that he not make
a prediction on what the stock
market is going to do. The re-
quest for a forecast that it
would take an upward squirt
came from a New York candi-
date, who said his prospective
constituents are in a other
about what's going on on Wall
Street.
Neither could Mr.. Heller say
whether several weak spots
that showed up in the economic
data for May and June repre-
sent only a passing lull in the
economic advance or whether
they may signal a further slow
down in the pace Of economic
expansion"
Claiming that their cause. is
right and just, speakers urged
the candidates to go out and
push the Kennedy program
door to door. Some candidates
said they need presidential pull
added to their push.
One from North Dakota de-
clared that the American Medi-
cal Association has completely
outpropagandized us" on the
Presidents medicare bill, and
he wanted some financial help
to counter it.
-
Avoids Big Words
AMichigan hopeful, who de-
clared he had rung 1000 door,
bells already, contended the
people are behind the Presi-
dents bill. He said it helps to
steer clear of big words in ex-
planning the program. People
don't know what INDECENT
means; call them 'paupers, "
he said.
Virginia had two candidates
on hand for the briefings and
Maryland one.
John Wheeler, jr., who's try
ing to upset Republican in
cumbent, Representative Poff in
the Roanoke district, said most
Of the Virginia Democrats must
have figured they would be bet
ter off to stay away from the
New Frontier, which is not too
popular in a good many sections
Of Senator Byrd's domain. He
said the State Democratic chair
man didn't even bother to no
tify him Of the briefing session.
Mr.. Wheeler said he plans TO
sink or swim as a national
Democrat. He said he will pick
and choose, however, the parts
of the Kennedy program he will
stress.
Tax reform and the trade
bill seem like good items in
his area. he said, but on medi-
care most of the talk he hears
is against it. He said the doc
tors are the only ones talking
much; the rest Just don't say
anything.

famous when he led a success

segregation in the Montgomery
(Ala.) bus system in 1856, said
the Negro has come to feel
that he is somebody"
with this due sense of
somebodyness and elf-respect,
a new Negro has emerged with
a new determination to achieve
freedom and human dignity
whatever the cost may be-" DR..
King said.
He said the Negroes struggle
for equality has a universal
quality, involving every social

that Negroes have come to see
that it is ultimately more hon.
orable to suffer indignity than

liver them.
only when the people them
selves begin to act are rights

King said. "A catalyst is needed
to breathe life experience into
a judicial decision by the per-
siStent exercise of the rights
until they become usual and
ordinary in human conduct"
DR.. King, president of the
Southern Christian Leadership
Conference, said the method
of non-violent resistance is ef-
fective because, lit has a way
of disarming the opponent, il
exposes his moral defenses, il
weakens his morale, and at the
same time, it works on his
conscience"
He added that non-violent

In some programs, the re-

Round trip from DetroH to the end of the Baja Peninsula is oyer 6. 900 miles.

hR illions of years ago nature WI fashioned a proving ground for trucks that man can never duplicate. Today it is known as the Baja (bah' hah) California Peninsula, Mexico.
 These pictures give you only bare idea of the place. The road is fine for 140 miles below the US. border. Then the beating begins. Rocks and hard baked ruts bang, jab and jerk the trucks from stem to stern. Loose sand. makes them struggle and strain. Dust ciiokes them. Heat roastss them. Rivers drench them.
 The Baja Run took this Chew. rolet truck caravan IT days to go the ,O66 miles.
 All the trucks performed magnifi- gently. Not one was forced to drop out because of mechanical difficulty.
