ond term that he appeared to be before the battle of Oxford, Miss. The political impact of James H. Meredith’s effort to register at the University of Mississippi is

likely to be very great. First opportunity for angry Southerners to obtain revenge on their own Democratic party will come in next month’s congressional elections, a cut-off-your-own - nose proposition. More Republicans are seeking state and national office this year in the one-time solid South than in any previous election. Republican congressional candidates in the South may expect to benefit and perhaps they will. But cool-minded Southerners may hesitate before voting out of office a congressional Democrat, however much they may resent tire use of federal force in Mississippi in support of integration of the university. Southern Democrats are orphans wit hin their own party. Their only enforceable

claim to Influence In national politics is based on their congressional committee chairmanships. The Seniority System These chairmanships are held by Southerners out of all proportion to the number of Southerners in Congress. That situation is created by the congressional seniority system and the southern custom of putting their men in office and keeping them there. The chairmanships are a bulwark against the two-party system in the South. If southern voters began replacing congressional Democrats with Republicans, years would elapse before the newcomers would be eligible for chairmanships under the seniority system. These chairmanships would be relatively secure, however, if Southerners passed the 1962 opportunity to vote revenge and conserved their anger for the 1964 presidential election. It must be assumed that Kennedy will be renominated. FDR deprived the southern states in 1936 of their veto power over Democratic presidential nominations. For 100 years ..before that, Democratic national conventions had required a two-thirds majority

Yemen Feudal Land Os Little Changes

By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst Yemen, a United Press International correspondent once wrote, today is a land plunging headlong into the 10th Century. The old imam who then ruled Yemen, legendary land of the Queen of Sheba, had a built-in suspicion of Westerners and so the visit of the American UPI man was a rarity. What he saw was a feudal land which had changed little in historic times. Tacked on the wall of the Imam’s palace was the severed hand of a convicted thief.

vote of the delegates to nominate. The 1986 Democratic National Convention repealed the twothirds rule. The influence of southern states on Democratic party policy began then to diminish and continues to do so. Third Party Candidate Southern Democrats could support the Republican ticket in 1964 to punish the Kennedy brothers. More likely they will put up their own third party presidential nominee as a Jeffersonian Democrat or some such. The objective would be to throw the election to the U.S. House of Representatives. If the regular party tickets split the vote outside the South, no candidate would have a majority of the electoral college and the House would choose among the top three. Then the South would be in the saddle again. When the House chooses a president, each state has one vote, only. The South might expect to hold a balance of power in such a choice—and to make a satisfactory deal with the winner. But southern politicians must cling to their Democratic party membership to remain eligible for those all-powerful committee chairmanships.

Concubinage and slavery were legal. Adulterers were stoned to death in the desert outside the capital of Sanaa. It was a tribal society of Shia Mosl em s who recognized the imam as both spiritual and physical leader with unlimited powers of life and death over his subjects? Last month, at the age of 71 the imam died. Whether death came from illness, old battle wounds, sheer exhaustion or just old age was not made clear. At any rate, it came in bed, a fate

not reserved either for the imam’s father or the son who succeeded him. His father had been machinegunned to death in 1948. ~Tn a ”1956 uprising, the Imam seized a Bren gun from a palace sentry and shot his way out of his own palace. When the conspiracy collapsed he had two of his own brothers beheaded. Such was life in Yemen. Upon his death, his son, Seif el Islam Mohammed el Badr, 35, succeeded him—that is, until last week. Then the Yemen radio reported that the new imam also was dead, buried under the rubble of his palace during a bombardment by rebel army forces. The army proclaimed establishment of a “free Yemeni republic” and announced that Col. Abdulla al-Sallal, a former chief of the imam’s palace guard, had been named premier and commander in chief. Whether this would be the final form of, a new Yemeni government remained to be seen. In any event, the effects could be far-reaching. -- Yemen has a population of about four million living in an area the size of South Dakota. Its location at the southwestern corner of the Arabian peninsula gives it control of the entrance to the Red Sea and hence to the Suez Canal. — A neighbor oq one side is Saudi Arabia whose royal family is split by a bitter feud, but which certainly would not welcome a successful revolution so close at hand. On the other side is the British protectorate of Aden, headquarters of the British Middle East Command guarding vital oil interests in Iran, Iraq and Kuwait. And, waiting in the background is the United Arab Republic of President Gamal Abdel Nasser. The new regime obtained quick recognition from Nasser, and in its turn promised to resist imperialism, to support Arab unity and to seek one Arab country made up of free Arab nations. Nasser supports demands for Aden independence, and a link-up between Aden, Yemen and Egypt would be a natural step toward a strategy of Egyptianizing the Red Sea. Birch Bayh And Sen. Capehart Are Far Apart By EUGENE J. CADOU United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Issues between Sep. Homer E. Capehart and hjs Democratic opponent, Birch E. Bayh, have become rather wefl- crystallized today, a month before the election decides the senatorial race. Speeches, statements and interviews of the two aspirants have disclosed that they arg. as_ far apartr as the two poles.- Capehart is playing right field with a few passes toward Centerfield in the senatorial ball game while Bayh undoubtedly has the leftfielder’s role. Capehart favors an immediate naval blockade of Cuba to be followed by an invasion, if necessary. Bayh dissents with the contention that such steps would make it appear that the United States would be imposing totalitarian colonialism on the Cuban people. Bayh, however, favors giving supplies and counsel to antiCastro Cubans. Tearing down the Berlin wall is supported by Capehart, but Bayh believes that letting it stand would warn the werH that Communism

doesn’t and can’t work. Bayh believes that Uncle Sam is getting more for his money with the Peace Corps than with any other program while Capehart cites “immaturity” of the Corps volunteers and feels that personnel should be experienced doctors, nurses and dentists. Food Aid Stopping U. S. aid to Communist Poland and Yugoslavia is demanded by Capehart. Bayh believes that food shipments siould continue, especially for Poland. Capehart objects strenuously to the SIOO million bond issue for this country to balance the budget of the United Nations. Bayh says the United States must make all efforts to preserve the U. N., with an appeal to the World Court to enforce loss of voting rights to Russia and other countries that refuse to pay their share of U. N.. costs. However, on other international issues Cpaehart and Bayh are against recognition of Red China but back continuance of nuclear testing and a searching reappraisal of foreign aid, with emphasis on loans instead of gifts to other -nations,—,--; Bayh thinks that medicare under Social Security is absolutely necessary .saying that Indiana has 465,000 persons over age 65, of whom 235,000 have income of less than SI,OOO a year, while medical : costs have mounted 50 per cent.

Capehart opposes this program l because, he says, it pays no doc- ' tor bill, ho dentist bill, no nurses i and no drugs, except when the ail- . ing persons are actually in hosi pitals and because it would in- ; elude many persons able to pay I their own way. For indigents, Capehart favors having federal and state governments pay premiums on good private health in- ’ surance policies. Education Aid I Capehart is against federal aid to education because he says it eni dangers state and local control of s schools. Bayh predicts that Washf ington aid must come unless ; the state grants additional aid to - take the expense load off properi ty taxpayers. j Using farm products as an Amer- , ican weapon in the cold war is t advocated by the Democratic nom- , inee who points out that Communism over the world has failed to 1 feed adequately the people it •’ rules. i Capehart likewise would feed r the hungry over the world. But - he would take off all price sups ports and subsidies except that for r five years, he would continue the soil bank, taking acres out of pro- - duction, to absorb the shock, r meanwhile researching to find new s uses for agricultural products. f 3 ' I . . .Trade in a good.town — Decatur
