US. Armed Forces Will
 Accept Cuban EnlistmentS

WASHINGTON R - The De- fense Department announced Sat urday it will accept enlistments in the US. armed forces from Cuban veterans of the Bay of Pigs inva- sion-some of them for training as officers.
 But spokesman emphatically denied that the invasion veterans would be used as special unit.
 The new program will be gen. erally similar to one already start ed for other refugees from Cuba, who are now permitted to volun- teer for military training and then choose whether to remain in serv- ice or join the inactive reserves.

Air Force Will Give
 More Business to Alaska'S Commercial Air Carriers


 WASHINGTON R - The Air Force is going to make an effort to give more cargo and passenger business to commercial air carriers in Alaska, the states congression- al delegation was told Friday.
 The assurance was given at a meeting of representatives of the Defense Department, the Civil .Aeronautics Board and the delega- tion.
 Alaska members of Congress have been concerned about multi million dollar federal subsidies for Alaska air carriers - estimated at about $9 million in the year start ing July 1.
 They requested at the meeting to map plans for the use of Alaska commercial carriers for military passengers and cargo instead of federal aircraft where possible.
 Spokesmen for the Air Force said it is now putting into opera tion a program of using regular air lines in Alaska for passenger and cargo where it can be reason ably done. This is expected to re- suit in a substantial increase in commercial business, an aide to Sen. E. l.. Bartlett said. .
 Secondly, he said, the Air Force and Civil aAeronautics Board will cooperate in giving contracts to Alaska carriers, who submit req sonable prices, for shipments of large amounts of cargo on regu- lar basis.
 This program, designed mainly for remote areas not served regu- larly by commercial carriers, is to go into effect July l.
 The Air Force denied it was planning to use the so-called 'Logair" program in Alaska, the aide said. Under this system, the Air, Force charters cargo aircraft which use Air Force fuel, air strips and other facilities.

House Mixes Bill Which Would Require Fictitious Names to be Registered

JUNEAU LR - The House turn ed thumbs down on a bill which would require businesses using fic- tltlous names to register in their recording districts the names of all persons or partners having an in terest in the business.
 The vote was 17-17 on the meas ure which was introduced by Rep. Warren Taylor.
 Taylor told the House that there was no derogatory intent in the use of the word fictitious" but that it would simply apply to those firms whose business titles do not reflect the name or names of the persons who have a financial in- terest in the business.
 Tt is just matter of establish ing responsibility, such as is re- quired in the filing of articles of incorporation" Taylor said, "so that in cases of fraud and the like, you'd know who to sue."
 Lawmakers generally objected, however, that such registration might place an undue burden on the small businessman.
 'This might help the lawyer business, but it wouldn't help any other business" said Rep. John Rader.
 Tt would be great nuisance to the small businessman, who has enough problems already" added Rep. John Holm.

BuniOn Derby
 I'm Washington
By Hal Boyle

mans philosopher says:
 In public life today it is no longer enough to have a bleeding heart. Your feet have to bleed, too.
 The corn plaster has become the new status symbol for political in- tegrity in the nations capital.
 A man used to say he'd walk mile for his favorite cigarette. Now he has to walk 50 miles to prove he's physically fit to serve his country
 Pavement patriotism seems to be sweeping Washington, D.C., like wildfire. Every bureaucrat who hasn't made plans to complete a 50-mile loyalty health hike has to publicly admit he has flat feet or be put down as coward.
 They say the area around Foggy Bottom is thronged with so many limping casualties the place looks like Gettysburg on the second day of the battle.
 Is this what President Kennedy meant when he said we'd have to get this country moving in the 1960s? Somehow we'd hoped ii would be done on wheels.
 This whole problem of whether you can measure the efficiency o1 a government by the number o1 bunions on the feet of elected and appointed officials raises number of interesting questions such as:
 Will it result in a pedestrian ad- ministration?
 How fast of foot will lobbyists have to be to keep up with legis- lation on the hoof?
 | Isn't it enough to ask a politi- clan to run for public office? Is ii fair, after he wins, to expect him to go on long walk to hold his job?
 Instead of arranging to meet ( congressman in his office, will you have to get copy of his hike : route from his secretary and hope to catch up with him at an inter. section?
 Politics has always had it's ob. stacle courses, but already some o1 the sorefooted faithful have beer rumbling about using the 50-mile hike as the sole test of fitness.
 Some have suggested swimming the Potomac River both ways Other have expressed the view il is more important for a member of the Supreme Court to be able to pole vault over any obstruction than to walk 50 miles.
 Be that as it may, the New Frontier is building stronger harder breed of public servant ] The government is on the march.
 Hup, two, three, four! Hup, two three, four! Keep going, men-the next foot powder station is only 300 yards ahead.

Of prices has been nothing short Of
sensational. The index has scarcely budg-
ed for five years, is now at 1904 against
a base of 100 in 1888.
O.: Why is initiation under wraps?
A.: Because industry has ample ca
pacity; manufacturers are operating to-
day at IS per cent of capacity, 7 points
below the so-called comfortable rate. Be
cause supplies of just about everything
are readily available. Because competi-
ton is fierce and not only businessmen
at home but also aggressive manufac-
turers abroad are fighting for our dol
lar. Because unemployment continues
high ever though the jobless rate
for married men is way down and
new workers are entering the labor force
at the fastest pace in history. Because
businessmen are taking the toughest
attitude in years toward union demands
for steep wage hikes and are putting
a real lid on costs.
O.: Why does the White House express
concern then?
A.. The reason is that the higher price
trend might spread throughout the eco
norny of businessmen decide their tests
of our attitudes indicate we'll take
the increases. The worry is not about
what is but about what might be. Our
stable prices have substantially i'm
proved our competitive position in the
worlds markets and we cannot afford
a setback in our export drive. Any
price spiral also would revive the danger
Of a wage spiral, put us back into a
vicious leapfrog Of prices-wages-prices-
wages.
O.. What's the outlook?
A.: The prospect is that prices will
continue to advance only moderately but
assuming the tax cut accelerates th e
economy, the pace of advance could
quicken. Then concern would be distinct
ly justified.
AS of today, though, initiation in the
sense Of too many dollars seeking too
few goods and thus sending prices sky
rocketing is just not on the horizon.

aid administrators themselves.
The practice of obligating funds
for projects far in advance of need
and, in many instances, far in ex-
cess of the cost of projects, is one
of the reasons why the aid pro-
gram is SO confused and the cost
Of SO many projects SO excessive"
To be frank about it, our for
eign aid program has been de-
signed to buy friendship for US.
And now would be as good a time
as any to see how much friend
ship has been bought and actually
delivered. Have we acquired $148,-
456,333,000 Chats billions) worth
of friendship overseas? According
to figures that the Dan Smooth
Report cites from authoritative
source this is how much we have
spent in the aid program.
And how much is that fantas-
tic amount of money and who's
putting it up? The Report answers
this way:
THE 1885 billion dollars which
our government has taken from
taxpayers and given away abroad
since 1916 is 46.7 billion dollars
more than the total assessed valu-
alton of all property Cncluding
land) in the so largest cities of the
United States.
Foreign aid since 1916 has
cost individual taxpayers an aver
age of $1,537 each, and has cost
corporation taxpayers an average
Of $25,828 each. Since all corpora
ton taxpayers an average of $685.
828 each. Since all corporation
taxes must necessarily be passed
on to consumers in price of goods,
the total burden of our govern
ment's foreign ~give-away actually
falls on individual Americans"

Demo Popularity Decline Seen

But politicians privately will
agree that all is not well. They
know an emotional issue doesn't
disappear overnight and t
there are enough manifeStita-
tons of discomfort in the cleo
torate to cause considerable
change in the voting trends next
time in the northern cities.
So the Philadelphia result will
be examined and re-examined in
the months to come to deter
mine what really happened in
''The City of Brotherly Love"
One thing seems to have been
overlooked perhaps. 1t is that
the people of any city don't
like to see a president of tt e
United States coming to their
community to tell them for
whom they should vote in chooS-
ing a mayor. Disapproval Of
this kind of intrusion has been
voiced again and again in the
past when presidents have tried
to interfere in local affairs.
The election this week was no
exception, and hence the mar
row margin for the incumbent.

Kenya Wants Playwright

Kenya Dramatic and Sports
Assn. has just held a press
conference, in which Mr.. c. P.
M. Kamara said: Because XII
mathi was a Mau Mau leader,
the people think that the play
will be about terroristS. This is
not so.
"The play can be wr.itten
from any point Of view, written
by anyone. We have asked the
nation to write a play, and all
we want to make clear is that
before he died (hanged), Kima-
thi received religious ministra-
ton and therefore died peace
fully"
According to the London Dali
ly Mails Peter Younghusband,
Mr.. Kamara wants the play to
cuminate with Kimathi being
lifted to heaven in the arms OF
angels. "Mr. Kamara wants to
remind the people that tn e
freedom fighters brought about
uhuru." Mr.. Younghusband re-
minds the people that Kimathi
