THE WEEK IN
RECORDS
BY Albert Anderson
Nancy Wilson, CannOnball
AdderIeY In Jazz Spotlight

Highlighting the column this
week is a Capitol LIP showcasing
the talents of songstress Nancy
Wilson and alto sax Vrtuoso Jul
ian (CannonbalD Adderley. The
disk, which should score heavily
with record fans, represents ma
jor collaboration on the part of
Capitol Records and Riverside
(Cannonbalrs LABEL thus the title:
Nancy Wilson, CannonbalI Adderley
Quintet (Cap' 1851"
This is primarily a singing set,
with Miss Wilson excelling on six
of the IL tunes on the tracks, but
the Cannonball Express, aided by
such able sidemen as brother Nat,
on trumpet; Joe Zawinul, piano;
Sam Jones, bass, and Louis Hayes,
drums, comes through with several
delightful solos.
Nancy's best effort is on Never
Will Marry" on which she tune
fully states her objection to the
question Her technic: A slow
start, followed by a wild and con-
vincing climax She also vocal
ICES delightfully."- on Save Your
Love For Me-" on which she en-
phasizes melody; 1.-THE Old Coun-
try" marked by good lyrics, and
Happy Talk" on which she
phrases beautifully Her over
all performance is outstanding, to
say the least.
Cannonbalps solo games are on
"Teaneck," "One Mans Dream"
Never Say Yes" and Unit Sew
en-" On all of these Julian is i'm
aginative, but still forceful enough
to hold the spotlight No ques-
ton about, this is a major effort
for both artists should click.

For the first time this reviewer
is forced to be restraint in his

where this young group was per-
forming, "Twistin,' for all the fav-
orable comments in the jackets

of already explored Twist" slants
And the utilization of a var
iety of instruments didn't help the
fare either, although the beat is
sometimes lively Lack of ex-
perience of the performers, plus
the need for new ideas, are the
chief drawbacks of this LIP d.

Baxter, utilizing combination
of tender melodies and rich sounds,
does a good job of assimilating and
re-capturing in music the romantic
lure of the Caribbean Some,
particularly those who haven't Wis
tied the islands, may decry the
lack of the Calypso, Limbo and
other native West Indian sounds in
the refertoire But Baxter here
is emphasizing mood and the ro-
mantle side of the Caribbean, and
West Indians and their Latin
brothers of the tropics are, by
nature, romantic Authentical-
ly Delightful.

II am convinced that less
Federal regulation and sub
sidization is in the long
run a prime requisite Of a
healthy city transpor-
tation network"
In America the railroads
and other carriers which have
been under strict Govern
ment regulation have suffered
all the disadvantages Of a
system of Government owner
ship without enjoying any Of
the advantages Of Federal
loans or grants for construc-
ton such as are provided in
Europe, where railroads have
been nationalized.
What is really needed In
America is a Department of
Transportation whose main
function and purpose would
be to get the carriers out from
under Government regula-
ton and to make subsidies
unnecessary. A Cabinet Sec
retary devoting his whole
time to transportation is
necessary in order to fight
constantly for a system
Of private initiative. The
Government should, Of course,
put ceilings on the top rates
to be charged the users but
should aim to bring about a
gradual reduction in the
regulatory power of Govern
ment over the various types
of carriers in the transpor-
tation system. For If trans
portation in America could
be rid Of most of the Govern
mental meddling, all its
branches would certainly
prosper and grow more
efficient.
Mr.. Kennedy's message
offers a few rays of hope,
but his proposals may not get
anywhere because nobody

A discussion by Republi-
cans Of one Senate race this
year invariably begins: Don't
laugh but -" The race in
question is in South Caro-
lima and the Democrat whom
Republicans have a hope Of
replacing is the veteran Olin
D. Johnston.
Senator Johnston was
elected to the State Legisla-
ture in 1923 and has never
looked back. After two terms
as Governor he came to the
Senate in 1914 and is now
seeking his fourth continuous
term. He has opposition in
the Democratic primary from
Gov. Hollings; the general
view Is that the boondock
voters will save him from

Even so, Republicans be-

the South Carolina political
climate better than any
Democrat could. given the
race record of the national
administration. Their hopes

Generals Senate Committee Testimony
Seen Destructive Mostly to Himself
WILLIAM S. WHITE

General Edwin A. Walker
has now had his full say, a
day in court which it was
his right to demand and
which it was his country's
duty to provide.
A very long and harsh ard
confused say it was. possibly
costly to the regulations Of
hard-working and devoted
men in Government - but
certainly destructive most of
all to Edwin A. Walker.
1t is only left now to hope
that somehow. somewhere.
something constructive may
come out of the collapse of
the shoddy accusations of
this tragically embittered
man against the honor and
integrity Of that Government
which he served so we'll in
war as a soldier and which
he now serves so poorly as
an amateur politician.
In the afterlight of two
days of hearings given to
General Walker by the SEN
ate committee investigating
the "muzzling" of military
officers by civilian superiors.
this seems a fair reckoning
of where it all stands nov
!. The committee. headed
by Senator John c. Stennis.
a thoroughly conservative
MiSsissippian. has we'll per-
formed a hard and thankless
mission. BY giving Gen.
Walker a scrupulously fair
shake all the way, it has sus-
tained the highest traditions
of the United States Senate
as the last home of absolu
tely free speech.
.. The decision of Secretary
of Defense Mcnamara to
break the general was not
only justified; it was un-
avoidable. For Gen. Walker
has fully established that, for
all his truly gallant past as
a combat man, he now lacks
the poise the wisdom ana
even the elementary fam
