spectators and o display
of native Tunisian dress,
modelled by q young, attrac-
tive blond.
Conspicuous among the
array of native crafts was a
black and white circular rug,
about 5 feet in diameter,
hanging on a wall. 1t is made
from the hide of a gorilla.
All the crafts are hand
made. AS Mohammed Aniba
says, There are no machines
in Tunisia. We can't afford to
operate the ones that are
there because there is so
much skilled labor. You know
what machines do" he adds
graphically.
Also in the rare variety
was q smaller but more val
liable item than the gorilla
rug-a copper urn dating
back to 18th century Tunisia.
It dominates the window
display.
The shop sells mainly
leather goods, brass and

Many Of the specialized

The shop is called Sahara

The endeaver was con.
ceived a year ago when Mo-

To support his family, he
joined with five friends and
formed q corporation featur-

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Dec. IL
(AP).-Alabama voters, jealous
Of their local rights and fear
ful Of further Federal inter-
vention, apparently have re-
fused again to overhaul their
voter registration machinery.
Incomplete returns foreShad-
owed q lopsided defeat for that
racially inspired constitutional
amendment and one other in
yesterdays special Statewide
election.
The other IL amendments on
the ballot in the off-year ref
erendum apparently were ap-
proved by the smallest voter
turnout In many years. The
vote was so light that officials
in some counties didn't even
bother to tabulate the returns
until today.

Establish higher intelligence
standards for prospective vot-
ers seeking to register in the
future.
Create Q State board to help
county registrars Judge the
fitness Of the applicants.
Little Campaigning
Unlike other racial contro-
versieS in Alabama in recent
months, the amendment failed
to generate much public feel
ing, and there was little or no
active campaigning for or
against 1t.
Opponents who did speak out
urged voters to reject the
change on the ground that it
would weaken local control
over voter registration and. by
the existence Of Q State board,
might open the way for q Fed

County registration boards
now have complete say-so in
determining who Is allowed to

the Federal courts have already

the conditions prevalent In each
county.
Three County Injunetions
Three counties - Montgom-
cry, Bullock and Macon - are
now under Injunction to re-
frain from turning down Ne
gro applicants because Of race.
The amendment would have
required prospective voters to
meet intelligence standards at
least as high as those used for
the armed forces. The tests
would have been compiled and
the answers graded by the new
State board with no racial
Identification.
That system, sponsors
argued, would safeguard local
registrars from prosecution
and civil suit since the State
board, in grading the ques-
tionnaireS, would not know
whether the applicants were
white or Negro.
Some Local Control
Some control was to be left
with the local boards. They
would have determine d
whether prospective voters
could read and write and
whether they complied with
residence requirements.
The voters also apparently

Endorsed by the Governor
was q proposal to raise the
corporation income tax rate
from 3 to 5 per cent to pro-
vide additional school revenue,
and another to authorize a
$40 million State docks bond

The hospital amendment,
opposed by the Alabama Hos
pital Association. would allow
elected commissions as well as
appointed boards to handle
the affairs Of county hospitals.
It grew out Of q squabble in
Dekalb County, and the voters
there as well as Statewide
opposed the change.

Kentucky Gets
New Governor

FRANKFORT, KY, Dec. IL
.lAP).-Edward T. Breathitt,
IT,, was inaugurated governor
yesterday amid the most strin-
gent security provisions in
Kentucky history.
In his inaugural speech the
39-year-old Hopkinsville attor-
ney asked solemnly that Ken
tuckians move forward in the
spirit Of the late President
Kennedy.
About 10000 persons turned
out as Gov. Bert Combs turned
over the reins to Mr.. Breathitt,
who defeated former Gov. A. B.
Chandler In the Democratic
primary and Republican Louie
B. Num- in the general cleo
ton.
In q very real sense, our lib
erty. our opportunity has been
bought with the blood Of John
F. Kennedy" Mr.. Breathitt
said.
Scores Of uniformed and
plainclothes State police fl
tered through the crowds and
entered the Capitol itself,
checking especially the upper
story windows.
AS Mr.. Breathitt and Mr..
Combs rode In an auto during
a 3R-hour parade, three detec-
tives walked on each side Of
the car. watching bystanders
and gazing at distant houses.
Kentucky inaugurations usu-
ally have been devoid Of all but
token security precautions. One
Kentucky governor, William
Goebel, was assassinated in
1900 but not during Inaugural
ton.

Tucson. You can buy a lovely

more cheaply than is possible
here. Apartments are also
lower in rent.
The cost Of living is less in
just about every respect. The

about five or six hospitals
from which to choose.
