ter to force the Democrats to
bear the brunt of the fight and
take responsibility for what
ever happens later to Kennedy
administration measures. Some
in this group have said the
Republicans should not risk
being accused Of obstructionism
or of a coalition with Southern

The Republican caucus

proposal by several Republicans
that the party take no specific

advise each member to vote as
he chooses or to refrain from
voting if he chooses.

Pope Surprises
Romans by Visit

ROME, Jan. 4 (AP) Pope
John XIII, resuming his i'm
promptu trips outside the Vat
ican walls, surprised Romans
today with a visit to a little
church near the famed Foun-
tain of Trevio.
His unannounced drives out
of the Vatican have endeared
him TO Romans. Today's was
his first since a stomach all
ment and anemia forced him
to curtail his activities in No
vember.
The smiling 8l-year-old Ro-
man Catholic ruler went to the
Church Of Santa Maria in
Trivig.
In a brief speech, he said
he was preparing a letter ad-
dressed TO all Roman Catholic
bishops urging them to con-
.tinue to work for "a fruitful
conclusion and the success" Of
the Ecumenical Council, now
in recess.
In fact. he said, II was while
working on the letter this
morning that the idea OF visit
ing the church struck him. He
said he recalled that today is
the feast OF st. Gaspare del
Sufalo, who founded the
Precious Blood Society. a re-
ligious order, in 1915. The
saints body is in the church.

terms in a five-year-old dis
pute over color television manu-

and license to all present
patents relating to other radio
purpose apparatus, tranSistors
and data processing equipment.
Both firm agreed to drop suits
against each other. Philco had

Morse Has Liberal Plan
ForCurbing FiIibusters

TO limit debate.
Even this proposal appears
doomed to failure because SEN
ate moderates. whose support
Is essential to victory, are IA
voring a change from two
thirds TO three-fifths of those
voting. With all Senators pres
ent, this change would reduce
the number of votes needed for
cloture from 81 to so.
A group Of conservatives, led
by the Southern Democrats, will
fight any change in the two
thirds rule and probably will
stage a filibuster at the start
of the session, If necessary, TO
block a rules change. The
Southerners have called a meet
ing for Tuesday afternoon TO
map the opposition strategy.
Long Time Advocate
Although Senator Morse is a
longtime advocate OF a stronger
rule against filibusters. he often
has spoken at length against
bills he opposes and once held
the record for long distance
oratory.
In 1853 Senator Morse set a
record by holding the floor for
90 hours and 26 minutes against
the Eisenhower Administrations S
bill 10 recognize the rights Of
the States to royalties from
tideland oil production.
In 1857 Senator Thurmond,
Democrat OF South Carolina.

ator Morse by talking for "a
hours and 10 minutes during a
civil rights debate.
Meanwhile, Senator Cooper.

he repeatedly relies on surveys,
conferences and persuasion
with many House members
rather than on any public
pleas.
Sources close to the House
Democratic leadership said to-
day this does not indicate that
the Speaker lacks enthusiasm
about the Rules Committee ex-
pansion plan or that he lacks
confidence about the outcome.
They declared that his posi-
tion is well-known in favor of
liberalizing the Rules Commit
tee to discourage a Republican
and Southern Democratic con-
servative combination from
blocking Kennedy administra-
ton measures.
Still Cautions
But authoritative accounts of
his meetings with other prom
inent House Democrats and Of
ficers of the liberal Democratic
Study Group indicate he be-
lieves chances Of victory have
improved. He, nevertheless, was
reported to have cautioned
against recently heard claims
that the expansionists will win
by a margin of 10 to rs votes,
The vote for a temporary
enlargement of the committee
from IL to Is members during
the past Congress was 215 to
.212. Opponents included 64
Democrats and l48 Repub-
licans, while % Republicans
joined 1876 Democrats for the
expansion.
Spokesman for the DSG, an
organization of about 100 House
Democratic liberals, after con-
ferring more than two hours
with Mr.. Mccormack yester-
day, said they view the fight
thus far this year as being
neither won nor lost"
Bigger Margin Seen
They estimated a few addi-
tional votes from Florida,
Georgia, Arizona and Cali
fornia to help Offset still-strong
opposition from Sout h ern
Democrats. They also con-
ceded that at least 20 Repub-
lican votes would be needed.
Il feel somewhat more con-
fident than I did before the
vote in 1861" Representative
Holifield, Democrat of Cali
fornia, said. Il feel we are
somewhat ahead. Otherwise
I would favor postponing a
vote when Congress meets
next Wednesday"
AS matters stand now, the
House leadership has decided
to have a showdown on the
opening day. AS related by
the DGS spokesmen and others,
the leadership also persuaded
the liberal group not to stage
a floor fight next Wednesday
on any issue except enlarging
the Rules Committee.

Senator Morse, Democrat of
Oregon, will porpose the most
liberal Of all plans for curbing
filibusters when the 88th Con-
gress convenes next week.
He said today he still favors
his own resolution under which
a simple majority Of those pres
ent and voting could limit de-
bate. Theoretically this could
mean invoking cloture by 26
Senators If only a bare quorum
OF 81 were present. But any at
tempt TO impose cloture would
bring nearly all Senators to the
floor.
Senator Morse also an
nounced he will try TO outlaw
use Of the motion TO table
amendments after cloture is
adopted. He told a reporter that
what happened in the Senate
last August on the communica-
tion satellite bill convinced him
that the motion 10 table as a
part Of the cloture process
must CO."
Tabled rs Amendments
He was referring 10 the fact
that after the Senate adopted
cloture for the first time IN 35
years TO break a liberal filibus-
ter against the satellite bill, the
leaders quickly disposed OF 25
amendments by moving to table
them, which permitted no de-
bate on those amendments Sem
ators could still speak for one
hour each on the bill as a whole,
but not on those amendments,
Senator Morse said he would
not support any cloture move
which permitted possible us OF
the motion TO table.
The Morse plan for cloture
by simple majority has little
chance OF success IN the new
Congress, however. An attempt
by the oregon Senator last Au-
gust TO have his proposal taken
from the Rules Committee was
defeated. 10 10 IA.

Vocational education-a ira
ditional part of the American
school System-will be pushed
into new prominence this year
by the Kennedy administration
as a partial answer to unem-
ployment caused by automa-
ton.
A major overhaul and ex-
pansion of this program is the
one definite new element in the
still-jelling education recon-
mendations the President will
send Congress.
The basic idea is to train
more Of the country's young
people as secretaries, office
machine operators and techni-
cians-jobs that are now hard
to fill.
A Shift in Emphasis
Informed sources said today
Mr.. Kennedy will propose shift
ing the emphasis on vocational
education from agriculture and
home economics to these areas
where employment prospects are
becoming brighter.
His recommendations will be
based on a report submitted
late last year by a panel of con-
'sultants headed by Chicago
school superintendent Benja-
min c. Willis.
Federal funds have been sup
porting vocational education
since 1917, but the bulk of the
money in the past has gone to
rural areas for training in
home-making and farming.
Last year, for example, "a
million persons received train
ing in those two fields, while
only "A million were in courses
teaching technical, industrial
retail and practical nursing
skills. No training at all was
offered office workers.
AS a result, a rural State
like Alabama received almost
as much in Federal funds for
vocational education as an
industrial State like Michigan,
with much higher unemploy-
ment.
Expected Proposals
Following the recommenda-
tions of the advisory panel, the
President is expected to sug-
gest:
/. Broadening vocational
education in the Nations high
schools to include courses in
white collar office jobs, pre-
paratory training for the retail
trades and increased empha-
sis on management skills in
agriculture.

U. S. to Put Emphasis
On Training for Jobs

8. Providing Federal funds to
build area vocational schools,
where full-time training keyed
to the job opportunities of that
community can be offered high
school drop-outs and graduates.
Last year, some $4,000 per-
sons received training as tech
nicians under a four-year-old
provision of the National De-
fense Education Act.
Experience in such States as
North Carolina has convinced
Federal officials this number
could be incresaed substan-
TALLY If funds were available

type Of training. -
Retraining for JObless
4. Continuing and expanding
the retraining programs for un-
employed youths and adults
under the 1862 Manpower De-
velopment and Training Act.
The Department of Health
Education and Welfare an
nounced today that more than
$4,000 persons were enrolled in
courses under this program last
month in 80 States and the Dis
trict of Columbia. 1t said 30
per cent of the graduates have
found work.
In the District, 23O persons
were receiving training as Serv-
ice station statesmen, clerk
typists and practical nurses,
the report said. r
Teacher Training
5. Setting up training pro-
grams for teachers of vo-
cational courses and taking
other steps to improve the quail
ity of instruction in this field.
Federal expenditures for vo-
cational education now run
about $50 million a year, with
the States and communities
providing substantially more
than the Federal share.
The consultants recommend
a boost in Federal spending to
$400 million next year, but
budget considerations are ex-
pected to keep the Presidents
proposal well below that figure.

Rusk and FinIetter Due to Meet
Kennedy in Florida Tomorrow
BY GARNETT ID. HORNER
Star Staff Writer


PALM BEACH, Fla, Jan. 4.
President Kennedy will con-
fer here tomorrow with Secre-
tary Of State Rusk and Thomas
K. Finletter, American Amoas-
Sador to NATO, it was an
nounced today.
White House Press Secretary
Salinger said the discussion
would deal primarily with NATO
problems, including the Nassau
Pact project to create a multi
nation nuclear force under
.NATO.
The conference was arranged
as the President studied a mes
sage from French President de
Gaulle, understood to give an
equivocal reply to Mr.. Ken
nedy's offer to supply France
with Polaris missiles on the
same terms as Great Britain
will get them.
Under the Nassau Pact con-
cluded by Mr.. Kennedy and
British Prime Minister Mac
milan last month, Britain will
fit her own nuclear warheads
to the American made Polaris
missiles and build atomic sub
marines to carry them.
NATO Force
A key part of the agreement
provides that all the nuclear
striking power so developed
matched by an equal force con-
tributed directly by the United
States - will be made available
for inclusion in a multi-nation
force under the NATO UNI
brella.
While not rejecting the Pres
ident's offer of a similar deal
for France, Gen. de Gaulle's
reply is understood to empha-
size determination to push
ahead with development of
Frances own Independent nu-
clear force.
Paris reports said Gen. de
Gaulle informed Mr.. Kennedy
the Polaris offer is being
studied.
Alphand, Rusk Meet
French Ambassador Herve {
Alphand met for As minutes y
with Mr.. Rusk yesterday to dis
cuss Gen. de Gaulle's reply. U
Mr.. Alphand indicated to re- "
porters afterward at the State Il
Department in Washington +,
that United States-French talks
on the matter would continue
for some time. c'
1T is very complex prob
lem and it will take a long, W
long. period of discussion" the P
Ambassador said. fl
Mr.. Alphand also said that u
there was no discussion be-
tween him and Mr.. Rusk about a
a possible visit by Gen. de q
Gaulle to the United States. r
Mr.. Kennedy's aim in push
ing for creation of a NATO t,
multi-nation nuclear deterrent S
power is to discourage the {
spread of nuclear weapons and I
diversion of resources from {
non-nuclear defense programs !
through national efforts to de- ]
velop independent nuclear {
forces by the NATO allies.
Big Problems h
He realizes many technical
and political problems must be =
overcome to bring the projected
NATO force into being, how h
ever. One of the big problems Il
to be worked out involves con- S
troll arrangements whose fin
ger will be on the trigger. NJ

morrow, Mr.. Finletter is ex- F
pected to get instructions from D
the President to guide his dis R
cussions of such problems with Of
