Montello Park, Central Park, Virginia Park, Jettison Mocatowo Park, North Drive and District No. 2 HOLLAND, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, JUNE 29, 1962 FOURTEEN PAGES PRICE SEVEN CENTS Thousands Hail Arrival OfKennedys President, First Lady Land in Mexico City For Start of Visit MEXICO CITY President Kennedy arrived today in Mexico to a tumultuous welcome for a meeting with Mexican President Adolfo Lopez Mateos to plead for a "peaceful revolution" in the Western Hemisphere. An estimated 20,000 people cheered and rattled as the presidential jet taxied to a halt on the ramp at Central Airport.

The gaily colored airport erupted in a blaze of sound, with 21-gun salutes sending puffs of white smoke into the overcast sky. Mrs. Kennedy accompanied her husband off the plane and stood by him during the playing of the Mexican and United States national anthems. Lopez Mateos welcomed the Kennedys warmly. "Mexico and the United a a great deal to talk about." he said in Spanish.

Kennedy, in his brief airport speech said that through his Alliance for Progress he thought there was opportunity for continuance of the revolutionary tradition, carried out in peace and i i among American nations. The sky clouded over shortly before the President arrived and he could expect rain tonight. But the residents of Mexico City thought nothing of it By the tens of thousands they lined the 10- mile parade route from the airport to Los Pinos presidential palace to cheer and shout "Viva Kennedy." "Viva Jackie." Troops lined the flag- draped motorcade route, standing several paces apart with rifles and fixed bayonets The airport and the motorcade route were a blaze of bright colors. Flags made of flowers decorated the airport Labor union delegations in gay costumes made a kaleidoscope of color and an ocean of sound at the airport To the ceremonial audience at Mexico City's airport, Kennedy said "To the American leaders of loYlay Is given the opportunity to mold a new revolution no less profound than that which gave us birth not a revolution of force or fear, not the impositions of new fannies or new bloodshed--but a peaceful revolution which i demonstrate the creative capacity of democratic government to maintain a society where social justice and economic progress are of the dignity of man." The emphasis of desirability of social and economic change without tyranny or bloodshed apparently was intended by the visiting President to counter some of the anti S. sentiment in Mexico the Kennedy government's attitude toward Fidel Castro's Cuba.

Kennedy and his host have been at some diplomatic distance over the proper hemispheric approach to Castro. Lopez Mateos does not share the that Cuba currently- is Communist dominated, nor does he share the northern belief that Cuba should be sealed off from the hemispheric family until the Caribbean island breaks its ties with communism. The U.S President armed here i his wife after a jet flight from Washington and first item on their agenda was a colorful airport welcome by Lopez Mateos and leaders of the Mexican government A heavy detail of security egents preceded Kennedy to consult with Mexican officials on the possibility that anti-Kennedy demonstrations could turn into something more senou-, But advance word was that leftist demonstrations had fizzled out and Mexico City was in a fiesta mood. SUBSTATION UNIT MOVED This 15-ton power substation was moved today from 40th to the city-owned location at 37th St. and Central Ave.

Board of Public Works employes and the William Mokma Co. handled the project. Harold Karsten, assistant BPW superintendent, said the unit will be back in service Monday. The 25th St. station will be used over the weekend, Karsten said.

He warned that some homes in the extreme southern part of the city may have a slight drop in voltage but everything will be back to normal Monday.

ScJblen ran into a snag today. The Israeli government announced that Soblen would not be expelled today for entering this country on forged Canadian passport after fleeing the United States. The delay could open a prolonged legal tussle over Sob- len's future, since there is no extradition treaty between the United States and Israel. Government information officer David Landor disclosed the decision to hold off on Soblen's ouster in the wake of apparently feverish efforts by some Israeli officials to get him out of the country before he becomes an embarrassment to the government Earlier, informed sources had said Soblen's departure today was "likely" and might be only "a matter of hours away." However, a single direct Israeli El Al Airlines flight direct to New York left here without Soblen. Three highly placed official sources said previously that Israel was trying to expel Soblen by executive action to prevent a long court fight In fact, one source had said "Nothing but a miracle will delay Soblen's departure today to Israeli law.

Interior Minister Moise Shapiro personally could order Soblen's expulsion under the power of a magistrate's decision to hold the convicted Red spy in Ramie Prison The government has 10 days to take definite action before the court order expires next week. Exactly why the government failed to hustle Soblen out of the country was not immediately Landor gave no indication if the government now planned to expel Soblen. or when Shapiro has submitted the ex- sulsion question to the entire Israeli cabinet for a decision. Informed sources said this was a diversionary move to prevent delaying legal tactics on Soblen's behalf. Michigan to Face Reapportionment Trade Bill Gains Okay In House President Receives Tariff-Cuting Powers; Passed by 82 Votes WASHINGTON I President Kennedy was over the big hurdle today in his drive to wrest from Congress more tariff-cutting powers than any Chief Executive ever has held.

Administration forces pushed Kennedy's trade expansion bill through the House Thursday without having to make any llth hour concessions. The President won on the crucial vote by a surprisingly comfortable margin of 82 votes Kennedy hailed the House approval and called for "early and successful" Senate action. He said the bill "serves the great interest of our country," and the House vote reflected "the national character of this legislation as well a.s its importance." It was the biggest legislative victory Kennedy has scored since he entered the White House. It iust about clinched enactment of a law giving him powers he insists he must have to negotiate bigger foreign markets for American products Unless tariff barriers are lowered on both sides of the Atlantic there is danger that the Common Market will mean reduced shipments of U.S. industrial and farm products to Western Europe Senate hearings on the House- passed bills will start later this summer.

Adminstration officials said they did not expect the Senate adopt any crippling amendents. 3ut in any case, they were confident that an acceptable final bill would be drafted by Senate-House conferees. The House-passed measure contains all of the cash subsidies Kennedy proposed for workers who lose their jobs as a result of increased imports It also provides federal aid to help import- sensitive business firms adjust to expanded trade The subsidies for jobless workers could range as high as $61 a week and run for 52 weeks, and in certain cases, as long as 78 weeks. By amassing the greatest outpouring of Democratic votes for freer trade in many years, the administration needed little help from Republicans to get the bill approved The crucial vote came on a proposed GOP substitute for Kennedy's bill The substitute would merely have extended for one year the negligible tariff-cutting power the President now has The Republican proposal was rejected, 253 to 171. The anti-climatic vote on final passage was 298 to 125 On the key vote Republicans voted 127 to 43 to sidetrack Kennedy's bill.

His testimony, however, apparently failed to fully convince some members of the subcommittee and they pressed him about other moves. They raised the points as Freeman returned for questioning after presenting a 50-page review of the Estes case Thursday.

Mundt proposed "two simple reforms" which, he said would have prevented Estes from amassing improper cotton allotments or at least nipped the scheme "in its infancy." Mundt proposed that the department require written minutes of department meetings such ast he one at which Estes threatened Agriculture Department officials. He said the department also should require its field offices to acknowledge directives such as the one which labeled Estes' sales a a a improper "scheme and device." Freeman told reporters in advance of today's hearing that he had "great confidence" in Undersecretary of Agriculture Charles S. Murphy, a key figure in the Estes inquiry. Won't Pay For Junkets LANSING I Junkets by study committees will not be paid for by state funds, unless some action is taken in the scheduled July 26 legislative session. Several interim study commit- I tees had previously planned trips this summer, one of them to New York the site of the next world's fair.

Democrats Thursday night refused to approve a suspension of the House rules which would have allowed interim committees to operate under appropriations provided for them. Committees established as "interim" units normally operate only during adjurnment periods of the legislature. Since the 1962 legislature has set a session for Dec. 27 there will be no summer adjournment, as things stand today "You are cutting off your nose to spite your face." said Rep. Russell H.

Strange, R-Clare, who proposed a means of committee work sessions this summer. Strange's proposal would have allowed interim committees to work and draw reimbursement as long as the committee sessions did not coincide with a legislature meeting here. His proposal could be adopted at the July 26 however. HOLLAND MOOSE 1116 Saturday- Night New Dance Band Connie's "Starlightcrs" Meet the Crowd Adv.

Gen.

Frank J. Kelley took steps today to force the legislature to reapportion state Senate districts before the November general election or else put the senators' seats up for grabs on an at-large basis. Kelley filed briefs for the state today urging the state Supreme Court to direct the governor to Lawmakers Delay Adjournment LANSING I A budget of just under $512 million was approved by the legislature, but adjournment was held up today in anticipation of a Supreme Court decision in a Senate reapportionment case Better than i hours of haggling over whether to extend the session further ended Thursday night with the legislature scheduled to return here July 26 and another session slated for Dec. 27. The session had been scheduled to recess after Thursday's meeting and return for final adjournment on the July date.

Republican fear of a decision in the Supreme Court on a suit filed by state AFL- CIO chief August (Gas) Scholle prompted the "open-end" session. The Dec. 27 session could easily be eliminated, however, if there was no move by the high court to urge the call of a special session on senatorial reapportionment. Cruiser Strikes Rocks After Missing Channel Three persons escaped injury shortly after midnight today when a 27-foot cruiser missed the entrance to Holland Harbor and ran up on the rocks 20 feet north of the channel Coast Guard officials rescued Edward Brown of Byron Center, owner and operator of the boat, and two passengers, Robert Weaver and Vivian Lilly The Coast Guard said the boat suffered about $1,500 damages.

Rusk, Kennedy Confer On Results of Trip WASHINGTON I Secretary of State Dean Rusk today he and President Kennedy were "very pleased" with the re.sults of his 10-day fence mending tour to European capitals. The secretary conferred with Kennedy early this morning before the President left on a will trip to Mexico. convene the legislature in special session for the purpose of reapportioning Senate districts.

He said the present line-up of the U.S. Supreme Court's recent decision in the Baker-Carr case in Tennessee. As promised Thursday, the at- torny general said he would ask for a statewide election of all Senate seats if the legislature failed to realign them according to provisions of the 14th Amendment to the federal Constitution-the equal protection clause. He said the 1952 constitutional change which froze Senate seats violates the S. document.

attorney general's statement Thursday on the question also reinforced the position of Gus Scholle, Michigan AFL-CIO president, in his 3-year-old suit against the for reapportionment -of the legislature's upper chamber. Scholle's suit, which was thrown out by the State Supreme Court in 1960, will be reheard starting Monday by the bench on earlier orders this year by the U.S. Supreme Court. The labor leader has also asked that the Aug. 7 primary be called off until the Senate lines are changed.

Kelley said the 1952 amendment "does not meet the requirements of the 14th Amendment of the federal Constitution in regard to equal protection of the laws and will be struck down by the high court." With Kelley and Scholle virtually on the same side of the issue, the only persons left to defend the state constitution and the present Senate boundaries are the legislators themselves. Sen. John Fitzgerald R-Grand Ledge, one of three senators who are parties defendant in the case, said they would battle for the validity of the 1952 change "if the attorney general chooses to abandon the fight." The legislature, fearful of a special Cession which Kelley said he would ask the court to recommend, took the first step Thursday to ward off any such event. It postponed a "sine die" adjournment until Dec. 27 so that the governor could not call them back for any specific purpose.

Fitzgerald admitted, however, "It looks now as if the Senate has its collective back to the wall in view of the fact that the attorney general has said that our apportionment violates the federal Constitution." Kelley based his position on the now-famous Carr-Baker case in Tennessee, where the U.S. high court claimed jurisdiction in state reapportionment cases. Kelley said Michigan was more mlsappor- tioned than Tennessee. Kelley also said he was "convinced" that the reapportionment propasal of the constitutional vention would violate the 14th Amendment INEWSPAPERif.
