Vice President Richard M. Nixon charged Tuesday that Senator John F. Kennedy is spreading rumors that voters will lose their Social Security if Nixon wins the election. Nixon mentioned the alleged rumor as he ended his campaign for Pennsylvania's 32 electoral votes and moved into Upstate New Yprk to make a final bid for this state's 45 electoral votes. He was swinging freely at Kennedy to the delight of highly-partisan audiences in four of the most heavily Republican cities of the two states-Lan-caster, Erie, Syracuse, N.

and Rochester. NIXON CITED no source, but he quoted Kennedy directly as having said: "Don't vote for Mr. Nixon, because, if you do, you're going to lose your Social Security." He said that in Lancaster as he began his day's campaigning. In Syracuse, Nixon changed the quote and said Kennedy has charged that the Republicans always have opposed Social Security. "He knows that is a barefaced lie, and I say it right here today," Nixon said.

"He knows the Eisenhower Administration has added 12 million persons to the Social Security rolls, and Senator Kennedy voted for these proposals." For Kennedy to say that Republicans have always opposed Social Security, and to imply thereby they might "take it away," Nixon continued, was "irresponsible and despicable."

For the second time in less than five years, the slim 24-year-old youth from Baghdad heard a jury return a verdict that makes life in prison mandatory. The jury began deliberations at 11:15 Tuesday and returned its verdict at 9:37 p.m. The jurors refused to tell how many ballots they took before reaching their decision, but a poll, at the request of defense attorney Albert G. Summer, Bhowed that the decision was unanimous HAMILTON TOLD reporters earlier Tuesday that he was confident of acquittal, but when the jurors filed in there was fear in hi3 face.

When the verdict was announced, the Iraqi youth slumped in his chair and said Minute later. Hamilton was taken to the bullpen outside the courtroom. He walked to the farthest corner of the cell and sobbed bitterly. When the foreman announced the verdict in Judge Frank G. Schemanske'a court, three of the nine women jurors sobbed.

Hamilton's mother, Mrs. Amina Hamilton, also burst into tears. As she was being led from the courtroom by friends she collapsed, sobbing, "Maurice, Maurice." SHE WAS carried to the jury room by police. Still crying she said: "All the money is gone, my husband is gone and now Maurice is gone." Mrs. Hamilton and her husband, who died In November, 1957, came her from Baghdad when their son was first accused of murder in 1956.

In his one-hour charge to the jurors Judge Schemanske told them they could return one of four verdicts first-degree murder, second-degree murder, manslaughter or innocent.

Its truck pro duction was up, however, from 10,563 to 11.071.

FALCON WAS the champion of the Big Three compacts, with 430,437 units. Valiant had a lead of 663 units over Corvair's 10-month production of 207.009, but General Motors was well in the lead, otherwise.

Kennedy made another mocking attack on yiee President Richard M. Nixon for his increasing use of President Eisenhower in the campaign. He noted that Nixon plans to ride up Broadway in New York Wednesday with President Eisenhower, Henry Cabot Lodge and Gov. Nelson Rockefeller.

"Where Is Barry Gold-water?" Kennedy ahked a roaring crowd of 5,000 to 6,000. "I think it's only fair that all get in the car and ride down Broadway." He also said Nixon spent 2 i hours in the White House Monday getting Mr. Eisenhower to go with him to Pittsburgh and Cleveland this week.

Kennedy also branded as "detestable" the charge of Republicans in California that he would shift defense jobs from this heavy defense production state to "some other area of unemployment." "What Mr. Nixon doesn't understand is that the President of the United States represents all the people in all the states. He cannot run on a platform setting one state against another.

THE ESSENCE of that posi tion, as Mr. Eisenhower spelled it out.

is that United States rights of full control over the base are rooted in agreements with Cuba, that they can be modified or ended only by agreement between the two governments, and that the United States "has no intention of agreeing to the modification or abrogation of these agreements." At the same time, the President offered assurances that the L'nited States, presence in Guantanamo and use of that base "pose no threat what ever to the sovereignty of Cuba, to the peace and security of Its people" or the Independence of any American countries.
