House Democrats Set
Caucus, Nay Talk Rules

January 8 will disclose whether
leaders want an immediate test
vote on enlarging the Rules
Committee when Congress
meets the next day.
Sources close to both sides
in the controversy yesterday
said a final decision has not
yet been made.
The notices, however, are
awaited with more than usual
interest because they will list
specific matters to be con-
Sidered by all House Demo-
Gratis at a closed caucus on
the eve of the 88th Congress.
May Defer Showdown
An official of the caucus said
that If the Rules Committee
expansion proposal does not
appear on the agenda for the
January 8 meeting, In all
probability it will not be pushed
for a showdown on opening
day.
Ordinarily Democratic eau
cuseS are strictly limited to
items on the agenda sent to
members.
Somewhat the same situation
developed at the start of the
S7th Congress in January, 1861,
although under considerably
different circumstances.
At that time the late Speaker
Rayburn and other Democratic
leaders had planned for OPEN
ing day adoption of the rules
Of the previous Congress for
the new Congress, with one
major change-to increase the
Rules Committee from IL to is.
Voted on Floor
Because of opposition to the
move and uncertainty that 1t
could be voted on opening day,
the leaders decided the only
initial move would be to adopt
the rules of the seth Congress
for the 87th Congress.
On January 81, 1861, a sep
arate resolution was put before
the House and adopted by a
2l7-2l2 vote. This one-sen-
tence resolution provided for
a l5-member Rules Committee
for the remainder of the 87th
Congress in 1861 and 1862.
In 1861 the opening day
resolution to carry over preW-
GUS rules was introduced by
Rules Committee Chairman
Howard w. Smith, Democrat
of Virginia. 1t was adopted
without debate or any sign OF
opposition.
The Rules Committee expan-
sion resolution later in January
was sponsored by Representa-
tive Trimble, Democrat OF Ar
kansas, a Rules Committee
member. Mr.. Smith fought
vigorously against its adoption,
but did not attempt to block
1t In his committee.
Fought Out In Caucus
Caucus notices for the eve
OF the 1861 start OF Congress
did not include the Rules Com
mittee question on the agenda.
The matter was fought out
at a subsequent caucus.
Whether the same procedure
will be followed next month
was uncertain yesterday. Some
influential Democrats believe
that In view OF President Ken
nedy's recent emphatic stand
for keeping the Rules Commit
tee at Is, the House Demo-
cratic leadership had prac-
tically been committed TO an
early fight.

Camera fans are getting
a welcome holiday present
for this Christmas: new and
faster color films.
For 35mm camera users,
this holiday can be brighter
and more colorful with the
availability of new Koda-

light speed of ASA "a. That
makes it two-and-one-half
times faster than present
Kodachrome II film (ASA
25). 1t will be available in
20 or SO exposure rolls.
Better 12O Size
Users of 120 roll film size
cameras get something too:
a color negative film with a
daylight ASA speed of 80. It,
to, is two and one half
times faster than present Ko-
dacolor film CASA 32). The
new film is Ektacolor pro-
fesSional film, Type S, for
short exposures.
The new l20 Ektacolor
film has previously been
available only in profession
al cut-film sizes. 1t is bal
anced for exposure by day
light, electronic flash or with
blue flashbulbs. When clear
flashbulbS are used, the No.
soc filter is recommended.
When they say Type S for
short exposures they mean
all typical snapshot speeds
like 1-200th of a second,
1-l00th, 1-50th down to
1-10th of a second. That's

 tory.
 May l, saw the same article in
 the Appendix of the Congressional
 Record Alaska Sen. Bob Bartlett
 saw his chance to remind Con-
 gress once again, that the 49th State, like the lower 48, is visited each year by the four seasons and the twelve months; and that if we do have a little ice in Alaska during the winter, come spring we are going to put it to good use.
 And so, the fondest guessing game of the Hast Frontier" goes on, and is becoming more widely known each year The sLast Frontier" around Nenana is much different today Nenana has ten buses day that pass through on their way from Fairbanks to the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System site, at Clear. The old timers in Nenana stop to catch their breath when one of the huge diesel buses roars through town with a load of engineers and tech nicians who might be straight out of the world of Jules Verne. They are reminded of the tremendous contrasts that they have expert enced in a short half century, when in their day the only modes of transportation was the dog team and riverboat.
 School enrolment has doubled in the past decade, oil explorations are in their initial stages, and a highway bridge is scheduled to be constructed within year or two. Like Rip Van Wrinkle, Ne mana is beginning to awaken from two score years nap, but the traditional spring Ice Classic had never taken more than quick cat nap in it's A years of ex- istence.

Soviets Take Slap at US. For POStponing Orbit Shot

LONDON R--The Russians as serted Saturday night that fear of launching failure was the real reason American officials postponed the blasting into space of Marine It. Col. John H. Glenn Jr.
 Failure at Cape Canaveral," Moscow radio broadcast told home service listeners. "The fact is that officials of the observa- tion point on Cape Canaveral were alarmed by the failure of yesterdays launching of a rocket in the direction of the Moon.
 As is known, the rocket which started Friday from the same point has already deviated from its set direction by approximately 65,0OO kilometers (4O,625 miles).
 The rocket mechanisms of the rocket launched and of the one which was to have been launched into orbit around the earth with man on board are of the same type"
 At no point did the Moscow broadcast mention the cloud cover given as the official reason fo postponing the space shot. Later, however, a Tass dispatch datelined New York, said: sFou hours, one minute after Glenn entered the capsule, it was an nounced the launch will be post poned in view of poor weather on Cape Canaveral. :"
 British newspapers played the Glenn story in large type and with sympathy.

The question in Alaska anc especially in Nenana for the pas A years has been, If winter comes, can spring be far behind?' And in Alaska, in the spring, men and women's fancy turns toward guessing the time the ice will move at Nenana.
 This year the townspeople of Nenana experienced one of the coldest mid-winter holiday sea- sons in many a year. The tenn perature hung around 50 degrees below zero for about 10 days and set record low of TO below.
 Now, about a month later, the first breath of spring arrived with more record breaking weather, al- most 40 above, about 10 degrees warmer in one months time! With six and more hours of possible sunshine each day, Nenana citi- zens have begun to shake off "cabin fever" and feel spring coming north again.
 Measurementwise, the past two warm winters have showed these contrasts in the thickness of the ice. Jan. 1 1860, the ice was 28~ thick, and had 9s8~ of water rum ming under it. On Jan. l, 1861, there was 19" of ice, with ST" of water running under it. This Jan. IS, the ice is a thick 42" with only 3 of water running un- der 1t. The eternal question re- mains, when will the ice mover" It has moved as early as April 20, and as late as May 16.
 Last April 26, Nenana was prob ably one of the most discussed hanlets in all America. The Wall. Street Journal that afternoon ran a article on the front page, "Alaskans bet $1OO,00O on timing of spring ice breakup in river. Many push for other legal gamb- ling to aid states budget by governor balks." The thousands of executives. hundreds of corpo- ration bosses, and the million or more investors in America that had that article placed before their eyes, wolild not mind in the least, at being able to place a bet on the sIrish Sweepstakes of the North" But the Ice Classic rules limit sales of tickets to residents

Sen. E. Dirksen Claims JUN. Needs Surgery"

NEW YORK lR = Sen. Everett Dirksen, R-Ill0, said Saturday the United Nations has become "a weak and dubious instrument and that surgery" may be needed.
 The senator minority leader, ad- dressing the Women's National Republican Club, also hit at Pres ident Kennedy's budget and tariff proposals
 Differing with Kennedy's sug- gestion that the United States un- derwrite half of a $2G0 million JUN. bond issue, Dirksen said that surgery rather than a poul- tice may be the real need if the life and prestige of the JUN. is to be sustained"
 Dirksen said the United States cannot maintain control of it's own foreign policy and discharge it's responsibilities as a JUN. member If the United Nations is to dic- tate the policies which we, the United States, should follow
 Concerning Kennedy's advocacy of reciprocal tariff cuts with the European Common Market, Dirk sen said:
 This not the time to tremble before the challenge of the Eu- ropean Common Market. To do so means that we deal from weakness rather than strength and display lack of confidence in the productive capacity of our country"

New Zealander Sets New
 World Mile Track Record

WELLINGTON, New Zealand R Peter She'll of New Zealand, running effortlessly on grass track, bettered the world mile record Saturday night with a clocking of minutes, 54.4 sec onds that eclipsed Herb Elliott's mark by tenth of a second.
 Shell, Olympic 800-meter cham pion, whipped two sub four minute milers as he came from the rear of the field, took the lead at the three-Quarter mark and ripped off a 56 second final lap to beat Elliott's record.
 Elliott, Australia's miracle miller, has held the world record since he ran the distance in 3:45.5 at Dublin, Aug. 8, 1858.
 She'll, continuing the lowering of the mile record beyond the four-minute barrier first cracked |by Roger Bannister of England with a 3:59.4 choking at Oxford England, May 6, 1854. finished well ahead of Britain's Bruce Tulloh.

Resolution Calls for
 Reindeer Breeding Stock To Be Loaned NV. Alaska

JUNEAU R = A resolution asking that some reindeer breed ing stocks from Nunivak Island be loaned to herders in North western Alaska was introduced in the Senate Saturday.
 The measure was introduced by Reps. Robert Blodgett of Tel CT; Jacob Stalker of Kotzebue; and John Nusunginya of Barrow.
 It said that Nunivak Island is so overpopulated with federalIy owned reindeer that the federal government might find it neces- sary to thin down the herds.
 There are many people in Northwestern Alaska who could become self-supporting if they were given the opportunity to ob- tain reindeer breed stock" the measure said.
 Under the proposal, herders in Northwestern Alaska each could borrow 500 head of reindeer for breeding purposes.
