Hickenlooper At GOP Dinner In McKeesport McKEESPORT. Pa. (UPI) Sen. Bourke B. Hickenkoper R- Iowa, accused the Kennedy Adnistration Thursday of failing to redeem campaign pledges and of bungling in Laos and Cuba.

The charges were made at a $25-a-plate dinner aimed at raising campaign funds for a McKeesport Republican ticket in elections next month. The speaker, whose grandfather came from the area, said the administration has not lived up to campaign promises to curb government spending or improve employment. "Republicans have no mandate to remain silen." he said. "We do have a mandate given us by 34 million people to continue to exert a meaningful influence on the des iny of the nation. "I am sure that Khrushchev is watching very carefully the continuing exchanges between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party in the Uni ed States.

This is no occasion for Americans to face developments overseas in fear and trembling or with thoughts of appeasement on any front." Hickenliooper also chided President Kennedy for a pre-campaign statement of opposing nepotism and then arranging for government jobs for two brothers and two brothers-in-law. "I don't think there'll new bureaus set up in Washington." he said. "The relatives (of the Kennedy family) are running out." Boros Group Meeting Set In Jefferson Boro Jeffers.
