"There is something ridiculous about people ponderously and piously making propaganda disguised i in rib-shaking double talk.

(UPD The President of the Chicago Board of Rabbis last night condemned "the marriage of bigotry and the ballot" and urged that the religious issue in the Presidential be stopped.

KERR URGES TO ALUMNI 4 BERKELEY, Sept. 17-University of California President Clark Kerr today urged alumni leaders to support Proposition 4 -the measure increasing state college trustees' terms from four to eight -in the November election.

He called the proposition one that would "benefit all higher education of the state." The U.C. head said he felt the measure would assure the recently appointed state college board continuity and give the trustees greater independence and autonomy. Kerr urged support for the measure at a meeting here of 125 U.C. statewide alumni leaders. Russ Envoys Lower Flag, Leave Congo Continued from Page 1 most of the morning.

FLIGHT FROM CONGO himself had countersigned the order and refused to see the Soviet envoy. For 15 minutes Yakovlev paced in front of the gate of Kasavubu's house, tugging nervously at his shock of white hair. Finally a Kasavubu aide came to the gate waved a firm "no" with both arms. His head lowered, Yakovlev got inside his late model American car flying a Soviet standard and drove back to the embassy building. The total number of eastern officials and "technicians" in the Congo has been estimated at between 400 and 500.

One report said he had slipped out of his official residence yesterday, was arrested, then shot while trying to escape. RUMOR OF DEATH It was reported, but not confirmed, that the shooting occurred while Lumumba was being taken to prison outside Leopoldville.

This version of Lumumba's fate received some support, but important. details were lacking. Despite the rumors of Lumumba's death, fully armed troops of the "deposed" Premier's army have launched a new drive into "independent" Katanga province, the United Nations announced today. An official spokesman told a news conference that 800 Lumumba soldiers, have crossed into Katanga from southern Kivu province and advanced to a point about 25 miles northeast of the border town of Kongolo.

Nixon bid for votes in Iowa and Minnesota. Kennedy, the Democratic Presidential candidate, moved into the tobacco belt with criticism of Republicans on the farm issue. He told an audience at Greenville, N.C., that "every four years a Republican candidate comes out for an affirmative farm program: But the Democrats, he said, have worked year after year and day after day to help the farmer. Nixon, the GOP Presidential nominee, told a breakfast meeting in Des Moines that Republicans have their Democratic opponents licked in economic matters "on every index that points to progress." 'OLD AS MODEL T' He said all the devices and methods the Democrats would use to cross new frontiers of the years ahead are as old, as outworn, as a model Ford. Former President Harry S.

Truman also took a potshot at Nixon's farm proposals during a morning walk. He told reporters Nixon is "trying to lift some of the articles of the Democratic platform and is trying to claim them." He was commenting on the speech in Iowa yesterday in which Nixon outlined part of his farm program. Today ends the first week in which both candadates have been on campaign trail simultaneously. They'll return to Washington for a Sunday rest before setting out again Monday. Kennedy, ending his second week of campaigning, scheduled stops North Carolina at Greenville, Greensboro, Asheville, Charlotte and TOUGH BATTLEGROUND Political experts have marked North Carolina as a tough battleground.

Nixon backers say they have a good chance of adding the usuallyDemocratic state to their column. Nixon, the, Republican candidate, moves through Iowa and Minnesota today, marking the end of his first official campaign week (he delayed it because of an infected knee). The schedule includes an address in Sioux City, Iowa, and a speech and news conference in Minneapolis. The streets of downtown Des Moines were lined with 25,000 persons last night when Nixon arrived. The turnout was typical of several that greeted Nixon yesterday as he motored through Republican Iowa.

FARM VOTE PITCH At one stop, Guthrie Center, he made his big pitch for the Midwest farm vote, outlining his program to cut down the $10 billion farm surpluses. His farm audience applauded perfunctorily as Nixon sug- Associated Press gested heavy, shipments of surplus foods to the hungry people of the world and the creation of strategic food reserves across the country. But when Nixon left the farm problem and touched on foreign policy, his farm audience grew enthusiastic. Nixon stirred them I by repeating his favorite theme: He and his running mate, Henry Cabot Lodge, are best qualified by experience to deal with Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev.

SUCCESSFUL Kennedy regards his motorcades through New. Jersey and Pennsylvania yesterday as highly successful. After Pennsylvania, Kennedy headed into Maryland where 1,800 persons listened to him at a $100-a-plate dinner near Baltimore. In his speech, Kennedy addressed Khrushchev. American voters are not going to be influenced by what Khrushchev does or doesn't say about either candidate in the election, Kennedy said.

"Perhaps you have been misled into believing that we are a divided country, or that one side favors appeasement, or that the humiliation of our President would be pleasing to his political opponents," he said to Khrushchev. "Nothing could be from the truth." Meanwhile, Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson, the Democratic candidate for Vice President, blamed a trickle-down money policy for most of the ills. In Oklahoma City, he told a Midwest Democratic conference of party leaders that the United States is in another recession and the Republicans again are to blame.

A majority of the council members have insisted that, in view of the Soviet attacks on Hammarskjold and the U.N. operations in the Congo, it is essential to give him a vote of confidence.

Western diplomats say they are certain of a two-thirds majority for such a move. Diplomatic sources said the assembly will meet four or five hours tonight, all day Sunday and perhaps Monday in an effort to complete its work before the Tuesday morning opening of the regular session.
