Mhando has been impressed by the
fact that "even the smallest COM
munities have their own news
papers" In Tanganyika, a country
of nine and one-half million people,
most newspapers exist for the
whole country.
"TanganyilOa," he said, needs to
have more newspapers" The young
East African news specialist was
also impressed with the efficiency
of the wire services that provide
a flow of information and features
to newspapers in the United
States.
In addition to meeting leaders in
the mass media, studying and OBJ
serving their techniques, Mr..
Mhando Is seeking ways to do
better job of gearing the external
and internal publicity of his newly
freed and democratic country to
greater social progress and econ
omdc growth.
One of the tasks Of the Tankan-
yika Information Service, which
directs publicity for the newspaper
press, official government photo
graphic services and publications,
is to attract foreign capital to de-
velop industry in the East African
republic. Chief exports are cotton,
coffee, sisal fiber and diamonds.
A variety Of processing indust-
ries constitute the country's chief
economic attraction for foreign
capital. These include: cotton gin
ming, tobacco curing, rice and
flour milling, manufacture of sisal
products, processing of sugar and
tea, mineral ores, mica, coal, iron,
phosphates, gold, tin and salt, the
manufacture of aluminium ware,
block flooring, brick and tiles, rub
ber goods and textiles.
Tourism is a growing industry
in the $4,000 square-mile country
which boasts an average climate of
76 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit the
year round, with the temperature
never falling below so degrees, nor
rising above 80 degrees in the
areas of climatic extremes. Tour
ist attractions, aside from the lush
and exotic scenery, include wild
game hunting or wild animal
photography in one of the worlds
most fabulous game preserves,
Notwithstanding, and fishing or
boating in the legendary waters of
Lake Victoria and Lake Tangan-
yilza.
From his Eisenhower Exchange
Fellowship tours and observations,
Mr.. Mhando hopes to take back to
East Africa many techniques and
concepts that can be utilized to
help improve the mass media of
his country.
From Minneapolis he goes this
weekend to Madison, Wise, where
he will visit mass media organiza-
tons and confer on communica-
tions facilities and training pro-
grams of the University Of Wis
consin. A visit to Chicago viii
round out his tour of the Middle
and Upper Middle West. From
Chicago, he will go to Boston, then
to New York and back to Phil
adelphia, headquarters Of the
Eisenhower Exchange Fellowship
program. He win leave by plane
the last Of September for Dar-es-
Salaam (the Heaven of Peace) In
Tanganyilxa, East Africa.

cency and dignity.
Minnesota's Record On Rights
If we Americans are to be per-
fectly honest with ourselves, we
must admit that discrimination Is
not limited to our larger cities.
It Is not restricted to the South; ;
it is not confined merely to mar
row, or widely scattered pockets
within our nation.
I would be the first to admit to
the difficulties that Negroes and
other members Of minority groups
have in securing housing, suitable
employment, and equal education
al opportunities in Minnesota.
know that these same diff
oulties exist throughout our ma
ton, North and South, and I know
that 1t will not help these citizens
obtain their rights If we merely
engage in a dialogue among our
selves about what is right" or
proper" or feasible"
There isn't a person in America
who deep in his heart doesn't know
right from wrong on the issue Of
equality. We all know that dis
elimination exists. We all know
that it will end and that 1t MUST
end.
The promotion of racial justice
and religious freedom has been
the policy in Minnesota through
out its 105 years of statehood.
During this period, under both
Democratic and Republican admin
istrations, many steps have been
taken to protect the rights and
improve the opportunities Of our
citizens.
Generally speaking. Minnesota
today has the best body Of law
and the best record of executive
action against discrimination of
any state In the nation.
Minnesota Policy Is Bipartisan
In the four months since I be-
came governor, I have taken steps
to keep Minnesota where the over
whelming majority Of her citizens
want her to be, in the forward
ranks in the fight for equal op-
portunity. have issued an execu-
tive order requiring cancellation
of state contracts with employers
who discriminate. I have directly
urged several hundred representa-
dves of local government in our
state to apply this same procedure
under a never-before used law
to their own local public con-
tracts.
In the last session Of our state
legislature, did support and we
now have, a special Commission
on Indian Affairs. Currently, am
in the process Of naming a labor
industry committee which will
work TO find better employment
and increased opportunity for
members of minority groups.
In short, gentlemen, 1t is the
policy of our state to protect and
expand opportunity for all Of our
people. I believe that we have done
much, but I know as well that we
have not done enough. We can,
we must, and we will do more.
Public accommodations legisla-
ton is familiar to US. We have
been living under statute similar
to the public accommodations
proposal for 78 years. In more re-
cent years our state has adopted
laws requiring fair housing and
employment practices, and prohib-
iting discrimination in public en-
ployment and job promotion.
Our fair housing law was draft

Kerr's Space
Post May Go
To Anderson
BY J. A. O'LEARY
Star Staff Writer

Senator Clinton Anderson.
Democrat of New Mexico, may
take the craftsmanship of the
important Senate Space Com
mittee left vacant by the death
Of Senator Kerr, Democrat of
Oklahoma, In the opinion of
well-informed sources. :,
At first it was assumed that
Senator Symington, Democrat
of Missouri, would fall heir to
the Space Committee chair
manship because the three top
ranking Democrats on it are
already chairmen Of other ma
jor committees.
Voiced Interest
Senator Anderson is not due
back in Washington until next
week, but there were reliable
reports here today that the
New Mexico Senator. who now
presides over the Interior Com
mittee, recently expressed in
terest in heading the Space
Committee. although he passed
up a chance to become chair
man two years ago when Sen
ator Kerr succeeded Vice Pres
ident johnson as chairman.
While he would have to re-
linouiSh the Craftsmanship of
Interior to take Space. 1t was
pointed out that Senator An
derson could remain a member
Of the Interior Committee :,
which is important to Senators
from Western States.
Senator Anderson also is in
line to take over the chairman
ship of the Joint Senate House
Atomic Energy Committee un-
less he valves in favor of Sen
ator Pastore, Democrat Of
Rhode Island. Senator Ander-
son once was chairman of this
committee.
Would Affect Jackson
II Senator Anderson decides
to take charge of the Space
Committee, 1t would put Sena-
tor Jackson, Democrat of Wash
ington, in line for chairman
of Interior.
The chairmanship of the
Space Committee is only one
of a chain Of re-assignments
that will result from the recent
death Of Senators Kerr of
Oklahoma and Chavez, Demo-
crat Of New Mexico, who head
ed the Public Works Committee.
Senator Mcnamara, Demo-
crat Of Michigan, is in line to
become chairman of Public
Works.
Body Taken to Oklahoma
Senator Kerr's body was
flown to Oklahoma City late
yesterday on an Air Force plane,
accompanied by his three sons
- Robert s. jr., Breene and
William. His widow and daugh-
ter, Mrs. Lowell Clark, left by
private plane.
The Senator's body lay in
state today in the rotunda
Of the Oklahoma Capitol, with
members of the State National
Guard acting as a guard Of
honor.
Vice President johnson will
head a delegation Of 20 Sena-
tors and eight House members
who will Join President Kennedy |
in attending the funeral services
in the First Baptist Church of
Oklahoma City at 2:30 tomor-
row afternoon.
Temporary interment will be
in Rose Hill Cemetery in Okla

site near Ada, Okla.
