York’s Republican Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller. It is moving, which is the governor’s good fortune. If the shadow comes to rest it could take on the outlines of Poe’s bad

luck raven. The shadow constats of Rockefeller’s spending record. Conservative Republicans will not be happy about that and less so if, as suspected by some conservatives, Rockefeller comes up this time with a deficit. The governor campaigned last year and was elected to a second term on a solemn pledge that he would not raise taxes. He further assured the voters that he would not resort to bond issues in lieu of a fax hike. Neither would he draw on reserves of state funds to meet expenses. Heavily taxed New Yorkers liked the idea, especially the pledge of no new taxes. But when the returns were in, Rocky had a bulge of no more than 500,000 votes. He and his managers had figured on a whopping majority that would have becalmed Republican opposition to Rockefeller’s nomination next year for president. His majority was disappointing. Even so. Rockefeller’s re-elec-tion, Richard M. Nixon’s defeat in California and some lesser factors zoomed the New Yorker to front runner position toward 1964. Then Rockefeller produced his budget for the state of New York. The voters’ anguish was loud and immediate. Rocky did not propose new taxes. But he laid on a 40 per cent hike in motor vehicle registration fees. License fees for physicians, pool halls and such also went up. The average increase on a New York motor vehicle was $9.50. The Republican legislature is shaken. The voters are pressuring their legislators to reject Rocky’s program. That would be a political reverse of magnitude for the governor. Worse for him, however, is that the uproar over fees has focused attention on his spending record and spending plans. New York’s new-born Conservative party is inviting Republicans everywhere to observe that Rockefeller’s hew budget represents spending proposals 61 per cent in excess of spending by Averell•Harriman, the Democrat Rocky succeeded as governor. Rocky’s budget is just short of $3 billion. These are facts to be considered in connection with the obvious Republican strategy for 1964. That will be to assail President Kennedy as a slap happy spender. Conservatives who have been applauding Rockefeller as a fiscal conservative may want to take another look. He is, in fact, a big time spender In the Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy tradition.

GOP Solons Sit Firmly On Labor Bills INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Two conservative Republican legislators are sitting firmly on both Senate and House bills to repeal the “right to work” law. Both of these men, physically able to sit on almost anything, are the chairmen of the Senate and House Labor Committees, Sen. Roy Conrad, Monticello, and Rep. Ralph H. Waltz, Hagerstown. Senate and House repealers were introduced a month ago, but are such hot potatoes that they continue to gather cobwebs in the two labor committees. Waltz likewise is sitting on a House bill to repeal the agency shop which requires employers who agree to it contractually to deduct union dues from wages of their workers. Conrad steadily has refused to call a meeting pf bis committee. “I’m too busy .with reapportionment,” he said. Woos Hall Favor Sen. William Christy, Hammond, Democratic caucus chairman, said he has contacted labor committee members and believes he has a

chance to obtain a favafable report on the repealer if he can obtain the vote of one more committee member, Sen. A. Morris Hall, R-Marion. Hall said he has not yet decided how to vote on the bill because he has not yet read all of its provisions. Democratic Rep. William Babinsak, Munster, is author of the House repealer. He said Waltz has refused time after time to let the repealer out on the House floor for action and is considering a “blast” motion to force the committee to report. However, he noted the GOP majority representatives have agreed to vote against any maneuvers to force measures out of committees. “It doesn’t look very good for anything being done on a repeal bill this session,” Babinsak said. Compared With Smith Conrad and Waltz have been compared by laborite leaders with Rep. Howard Smith, Virginia, chairman of the rules committee, who has throttled many liberal New Frontier measures with the aid and assistance of right-wing Democratic congressmen and Rep. Charles A. Halleck, Rensselaer, House GOP floor leader. Both Christy and Babinsak maintain they can obtain passage of the repealer if it ever sees the light of day because many Republican lawmakers believe “right to work” had quite a bit to do with Republican defeats in the last three Indiana elections. ' But the parliamentary hurdle is' tough, they say. Christy said that two bills to hike workmen’s compensation and occupational disability payments are likely to be adopted by the

Freeman Says Only Goal Is Farm Aid DES MOINES (UPl)—Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman said Thursday night his only goal is to give farmers “more muscle in the market place.” Freeman said he was not “wedded” to any single farm program. “The farmer has always been the low man on the totem pole.” because he lacked this marketplace muscle and “I’m for whatever will work to help the farmer,” Freeman said. “Organized groups are getting a larger share, and the farmer is being left behind,” he told a news conference at the 25th annual Farm Institute. Freeman said the solution to farm problems might be by marketing agreements, marketing orders or government programs for nationwide commodities. He said in a speech before the institute that employment in the department’s agency which deals directly with farmers is declining. However he said over-all employment in the department was increasing. He said full-time federal employment in the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service has been reduced by nearly 600 persons in the past two years. He indicated the downward trend would continue. legislature soon. The “riabt to work” law was enacted in the 1957 session by GOP majorities in both houses. It has been under attack by Democratic and union labor chiefs ever since.

Castro Regime Offers Asylum To Hijackers CARACAS, Venezuela (UPI) — Cuban Premier Fidel Castro’s regime offered asylum today to the Communists who hijacked the Venezuelan freighter Anzoategui. A broadcast by Havana Radio said the vessel, seized by a group of Venezuelan Reds in the Caribbean Wednesday, had not entered any Cuban port. It was spotted Thursday by patrolling U.S. Navy planes. But the broadcast said that if it did, the Castro government was prepared to shelter any of the Venezuelan revolutionaries and crew members who ask political asylum. The broadcast added that the ship and the rest of the crew would be “placed at the disposition of the secretary general of the United Nations.’’ The hijacked ship was reported about 155 miles southeast of Puerto Rico Thursday night, and at. least 800 miles from the nearest Cuban port of Santiago. Two Venezuelan destroyers were churning through Caribbean waters at full speed on an intercept course aimed at overtaking

and capturing the freighter before it could reach port in Cuba, or possibly Mexico, where asylum might be offered to the hijackers. The Venzuelan government has declared the Communists who seized the vessel to be pirates and has branded the Anzoategui a pirate ship. Through the ship’s radio and anonymous phone calls by the Communist National Liberation Forces (FALN) operatives in Venezuela, the rebels announced that they were holding the ship and crew as hostages until the Venezuelan government released “political prisoners’* through the International Red Cross. An FALN source in Caracas said all 37 crewmembers are safe, but warned that the Anzoategui is “heading to meet friends’* and had “protection.” The source did not specify what protection was meant. The hijacking appeared to be part of a terrorist campaign to embarrass President Romulo Betancourt and force him to cancel his the United States week.
