The idea is not new. The AFLCIO long has plugged for doubling pay for overtime. Experts say it is not done because: Rush jobs can't always be anticipated; if employers are uncertain about long-term business conditions it's easier to pay men overtime than hire new workers; the cost of hiring new men is spiraling with increased fringe benefits, company payments- to. welfare funds- and higher social security taxes.

-Associated Press Wirephoto Pontiff Damascus Reaches Gate GOLDWATER TO CAMPAIGN 'ALL THE WAY' Won't Be Influenced By Outcome of Primaries PHOENIX, Ariz. (AP) Conservative Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona, seeking the Republican presidential nomination to offer the nation "a clear choice" of philosophies, is determined to go all the way in his bid for the White House. Win or lose in the presidential primaries he enters, Goldwater will stick with his race for the nomination until the Republican -National Convention chooses its candidate next July. Word of the senator's determination came today from Denison Kitchel, newly named general director of the Goldwater campaign.

-Nevertheless, -Goldwater announced also for re-election to the Senate seat he has held for 12 years. "I find no incompatability in these two candidacies," he said. The filing deadline for the Arizona senatorial primary is July 10, three days before the GOP Convention opens in San Francisco. Goldwater, who had insisted he would not run for both the Senate and the White House, would not say whether he would withdraw from the Senate race if he won the presidential nomination. LBJ Called a Trickster "I will cross that bridge when I come to it," he said.

Four years ago Goldwater called President Johnson a tical trickster when the Texan ran for both the vice-presidency and the Senate. Kitchel said both he and Goldwater are confident the senator can win the nomination. "I think we'll probably have it wrapped up by early spring," Kitchell said. Goldwater and his wife planned to return to Washington today to launch the campaign he announced yesterday when he hobbled on crutches to the patio of his hilltop home and declared: "I will seek the Republican presidential nomination because of the principles in which I believe and because I am convinced that millions of Americans share my belief in those principles. Decision Is Explained "I have decided to do this also because I have not heard from any announced Republican candidate a declaration of conscience or of political position that could possibly offer to the American people a clear voice in the next presidential election." Goldwater's first business as a candidate: Removal of a heavy cast from his right foot.

He, had a calcium deposit removed from his heel four days before Christmas, and is still on crutches. When the cast is swapped for a lighter version, Goldwater is expected to discard the crutches. That will give him more of Continued on page 2, column THE WEATHER NORTHERN INDIANA: Clearing little temperature change today. Fair tonight. partly cloudy mild.
