AUGUST 15,1967 ALTON EVENING TELEGRAPH Kerner May Get U.N. Po By TOM LOFT US Telegraph Correspondent SPRINGFIELD, 111. -Gov. Otto Kerner, addressing representatives from various veterans organizations at the executive mansion before accompanying them to the State Fair to observe Veterans r)ay, told them this: "I don't know if I'll be the next ambassador to the United Nations, be the next secretary of state or secretary of defense or secretary of one of the other cabinet posts. I don't know if I'll get an appointment to the (U.S.) Suprfeme Court and I don't know but what I may be a candidate for this job again, but I do know I'll have you all back here for luncheon Arthur Goldberg, the present U.N.

ambassador who left his post on the U.S. Supreme Court to accept the presidential appointment as 'that ambassador, will go back on the nation's high court next year. This, of course, will leave the U.N. post open. Because of the implied trust President Johnson has in Kerner (as indicated by the commission chairmanship appointment), he will then be named to succeed Goldberg.

Washington newsmen, talking with their Springfield counterparts, scented inclined to discount the rumor, although they would not abandon all notions of a Kerner appointment to some high Federal post (including the U.S. Supreme Court). Many top Illinois Democrats! are still aware of a high volume of political intercession made by influential members of their party in Kerner's behalf, with the president. What that intercession will achieve, no one apparently knows, and in view of the gov ernor's remark to the veterans groups, he doesn't know yet either. The governor did tell the vet- 1 erans at the executive mansion luncheon, that so far, his presidential investigating commission did not find any evidence that racial riots were Com munist plotted.

again next year." firepower. He spoke with tongue in cheek and from behind a smile, bat nevertheless, It was a more revealing statement than he made to newsmen at a recent press conference. Replying to questions about his future intentions at news conferences, he would only say: "I can't say. You'll Just have to keep on asking me." The reference, incidentally, to being the. next ambassador to the U.N., is about a rumor which circulated shortly after his appointment as chairman of the presidential investigating commission in causes of riots in cities.

That rumor went this way: By RODNEY FINDER LONDON (AP) Britain's radio pirates appear to have been outgunned and outmaneuvered by government legislative But two of the five buccaneer broadcasters plan to defy the Marine Broadcasting Offenses Act which became law Monday by operating outside British territorial waters. The act bans Britons from op crating a pirate station or supplying it with advertising. It upholds the monopoly of the state-owned British Broadcast ng Company. Radioes Caroline North and larolihe South weighed anchor near the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea, 35 miles off the English coast, and sailed to a safe station off Holland. From there the pirates plan to continue beaming music and commercials at Britain.

But if the Caroline British disc jockeys enter England, they face arrest. The other radio pirates sue cumbed to the decree and sent their disc jockeys home. A mob of 800 screaming teen-agers, gave a frenzied welcome to seven disc jockeys from one pirate Radio London, as they re'turnec London upon the station's closing. The departure of the Caroline pirates was a big disappointment to the Isle of Man. The pirates gave the Manx isle, famed for'tailless cats and motorcycle racing, free plugs and helped keep the English and Scottish tourists coming.

On Aug. 9 the Lower House ol the Manx Parliament voted to appeal the British ban on pirale radio to the commonwealth, aft er a motion to take the mallei before the United Nations voted dwn. The new broadcasting ac hands back to the British Broad casting Corporation (BBC) its monopoly on broadcasting to Ingland. Softening the blow of osing their pop pirates to Brit sh teens, the BBC planned to open a pop service next month, MMl Mucks ttotit fthtmgk tin not hate ten front first icciiMs fence tat iMMjr eltttt. Moreover, he said, "ffost (the riots) seem to fee ttdrt of a fight between tfrt litves' and 'have-nots' rather ttwn a fight between races." The commission will wwem- ble all data after it completes its investigations and form them nto recommendations to be offered the president, and considering what the governor told the veterans groups here, you may have an early indication of what line those recommendations will follow.
