Co«Uy Primary Humprey of neighboring Minnesota and Kennedy of Massachusetts have spent more time and money in Wisconsin than any | other candidates in the history of, the state primary — including a | couple of famous losers in the past, the late Wendell Wilkie and | ' Robert Taft. They’ve imported relatives, including their wives, and political pals by the score. Free cofee -and cake, bratwurst and beans have been passed out. Athletes, college professors have given their endorsements Kennedy is a Roman Catholic but both sides have tried to keep religion out of the campaign. Both candidates have tried to extract the most from purported underdog roles. Humphrey has pictured himself as the poor man'a* candidate; Kennedy as the easterner who's campaigning in Humphrey's backyard. Cities Voting Records “ " Their campaigns have provided a significant contrast, despite classification of both as Democratic liberals. Humphrey has shouted throughout his travels, "Let s compare the record," and challenged Kennedy to debate their mutual voting records on the same platform. . , . Kennedy has maintained that the records are almost alike. He said voters should choose between them on the basis of who can wtn the Democratic nomination and go on to deeat Nixon This argument of "why vote i for a man who can’t get nominated?” has proved to be the . hardest for Humphrey to fight. The Minnesotan’s long - standing records on such issues as civil rights and labor have placed him farther to the left than Kennedy, and make him unacceptable to certain wings of the party. In reply, Humphrey has asked in effect. "Why vote for a man ' whose record is like Nixon s and t the administration’s?” Steps Up Attacks Humphrey claims he was a “liberal” long before Kennedy got

He talks about national problems, such as missile lag and labor [corruption. Like Humphrey, he discusses local conditions, too. 'such as the underdeveloped northern sections of the state. Their platform styles difer. Kennedy talks somewhat like a college professor delivering a lecture; Humphrey's oratory is oldfashioned and spiced with cute phrases Three New Cardinals Are Named By Pope VATICAN CITY <UPD — Pope John XXIII named three more cardinals of the Roman Catholic church today but kept their identities secret from the public. Vatican sources said the Pope told the College of Cardinals of the appointments at a secret consistory called to approve the designation of seven previously-an-nounced cardinals, including two Asians and a Negro. The sources said the three new names would be announced at a future consistory. The disclosure was a surprise. It means the College of Cardinals will be raised to an unprecedented 88 This tended to support speculation that Pope John may increase its size to as much as 100 in line with the growing membership of the Roman Catholic church. The Vatican estimates there now are more than half a billion Roman Catholics in the world and that this figure is growing at the rate of 15 million a year. Today's consistory began four days of solemn ceremonies installing the seven named earlier. The 78-year-old Pontiff met with cardinals of previous creation in the Vatican Palace to ask their formal approval of the seven.

Grief Demonstration By African Natives JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (UPD — Heavily armed police stood guard in native townships throughout South Africa today to watch the black man mourn his dead. African leaders labeled this a day of sorrow and called on natives to remain in their homes throughout the nation in a massive demonstration of grief. It was one week ago today that police bullets killed 72 and wounded 200 during riots in Sharpeville and Langa. Single-day strikes are not rare in South Africa but this was expected to be the first one successful nationally. The extremist Pan Africanist Congress callecr‘'on its members to stay home "until our demands have been met.” This would mean until the government wiped out a law which for 151 years has required Negro males to carry identification papers with them at all times. The more moderate African National Congress asked its members to demonstrate just one day. Chief Albert J. Lutuli, president of the ANC, burned his passbook over the weekend, terming it “a symbol of our slavery.” More passbook burnings were expected today. Negro African leaders said they were far from satisfied with an announcement by the government Saturday temporarily suspending the passbook law. They said they would continue to press for total abolition. juTtouißennM*®-RE-BUILT ELECTROLUX $39.95 Easy-glide tank type vacuum cleaner, guaranteed for 1 year. With 5 brand new attachments. HURRY!

Marseilles, a Communist stronghold, gave the Soviet premier a tumultuous welcome when he drove into the city at 60 miles an hour Sunday night after visiting farmlands at Provence.

The turnout Sunday night was the biggest, noisiest and friendliest since Khrushchev's arrival in France Wednesday Civil Defense Head Called To Hearing WASHINGTON (UPD — Rep. Chet Holifield (D-Calif> summoned the nation’s civil defense chief to a subcommittee hearing today to answer a charge that the Eisenhower administration has left America “absolutely unprotected’’ against nuclear fallout in case of war. Holifield, chairman of a House operations subcommittee, called Leo A. Hoegh, director of the Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization, as the first witness in the investigation of the need for fallout shelters. Hoegh Sunday urged continued consideration of the advantage of Shelter protection, which is termed “essential for family security in this age of nuclear uncertainty.” The civil defense director said the 1960 census would provide valuable information to help plan nonmilitary defense against attack, particularly statistics on radios and the “potential value of existing residence as shelters against radioactive fallout.” Holifield leveled the “unprotected” charge Sunday. He also said the fallout danger was suL-cantial-ly increased by an Air Force decision to place most of its intercontinental ballistic missiles in cement bunkers, deep underground. He said that a potential enemy would need 20 to 200 times more nuclear power to destroy each underground missile base than a conventional installation. Later in the week, the committee plans to question Air Force, Navy, and scientific witnesses on the federal fallout program and how it fits U. S. strategy. The group also has invited New York Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller, who has proposed several statesponsored shelter plans for private homes. Goshen Man Dies Os Traffic Injuries GOSHEN, Ind.

Strong Trend Is Shown For Apportionment By FREDERIC* K. rootx DnMed Proem tatoroaUonnl The Indignant urban roiidcnt wh<> find* hi* date controlled by rural legislator* may have relief in sight. A United Pro** International survey of all state capital* today showed a strong, if still inconclusive. trend to put power back In the hand* at the population majority — which by now ha* switched to the cities. The fight for proportional representation Is an old one. but in recent week* it has gained impetus from well-organised battles to force change via federal and state court* For years most of the nation's state legislatures have ignored their own constitutional provision* to reapportion themselves every ten years. Consequently in many case* the farmers who were in a majority when the state constitution* were adopted still control the legislatures even though they now are in a minority Increased City Fewer For example. Alabama has not affected reapportionmcnt since 1901; lowa since 1904; Indiana. 1921; Nebraska. 1937; Oklahoma, 1910; North Dakota. 1931, Mississippi. 1890 — Vermont not for at least 40 years. However, current action, sometimes by civic groups, sometimes by popular initiative, sometimes by new power groujys within the legislatures themselves, is leading to change. And as change comes, it points generally to increased power to cities, to the Democratic Party which controls so many cities. W groups supporting liberal reforn*. City Dweller* Liberal In the North and West this apparently means power tor labor unions and other groups associated with the Democratic Party. In the one-party South is apparently means power for groups within the Democratic Party which take a more liberal view on civil rights. In Massachusetts the Legislature. which recently went Democratic after years under Republican control, is in the process of reapportioning in a manner which many observers feel will keep it Democratic for years to come Sometimes the rural-urban lines tr« not s« clear cut, but more states than not have had legislatures representing a minority of their citizens. As more and more voters move to central locations, the inequity increases. And as it increases, so do the moves—such as the current court tests — to wipe it out. 1
