Top Brass Didn’t
Show Up for
Republican Ball
By Frances Leuiine
WASHINGTON UP> — Republi
cans held a transition ball Mon
day night and not much happened.
There was dancing and drink
ing, a few laughs and a new
fight song nobody got very ex
cited about. But the worst blow
was that the top brass — es
pecially President Eisnhower and
Vice President Nixon — didn’t
show up at all. Not even the Re
publican National Chairman,
Thruston B. Morton.
The 900 or so energetic Repub
licans who did come had a fine
time dancing till midnight to a
jazzy, 15-piece orchestra. But it
wasn’t what you’d call a gala.
As Chairman Lyman Brown- :
field of Columbus, Ohio, put it: |
It was the first time a transition j
ball was held and “people j
wouldn’t take it seriously.” Es
pecially, it seemed, in the midst of
a Democratic inaugural week.
The audience, including many ]
young dance-minded Republicans,!
applauded a transition ball song j
that predicted “we’ll be back in
sixty-four.”
Paper “crying towels” were
distributed and a sign reading
“House Rules” advised that no
crying aloud was permitted. It I
urged: “Republicans, save your j
buttons.”
Several congressmen were on j
hand and two from Ohio — Wil- |
liam Ayres and Frank Bow —
participated in a skit depicting !
news commentators reviewing
events “that made this ball neces
sary.”
Two bars were labeled “Going
Out of Business Bar” and “New
Frontiers Here.” They offered in
cluding “Grape Debate — sour
grapes and Old Crow,” plus Ap
ple Jackie, Pink Lady Bird, Hy
annis Port and Old Fitzgerald —
on the rocks.
SECURITY AGAINST WAR
WELL NEVER BE ACHIEVED
WITH MILITARY POWER
PASADENA, Calif. UP) — Presi
dent-elect John F. Kennedy’s
special assistant on Science and
Technology says the prospect for
peace “will depend on the amount
of sovereignty nations of the
world are willing to abdicate.”
“Maximum security against war
will never be achieved through
military security alone,” Dr.
Jerome B. Wiesner said Friday in
a lecture at the California Insti
tute of Technology.
“Eonomic and political aspects
of security must be solved along
with arms limitations and con
trol,” Wiesner said. “Unless all
aspects are solved, we will be
continually negotiating new
agreements, for as an agreement
is reached on nuclear weapons
something else will be discovered
with which to carry on war.”
WEATHER FORECAST
Cloudy with occasional light
snow. Little change in tempera
ture. Low tonight 0 to 5, high to
morrow 15 to 20. High yesterday

Communism Will Take
Over the World in the Near
‘Future States Khrushchev
MOSCOW UD — The Soviet
| Union published Premier Khrush
I chev’s complete detailed blue
j print on how he expects Com
munism to take over the world in
the near future.
His 20,000 word speech — one
of the frankest and most impor
tant documents printed here
since World War II — proclaimed
that “the victory of Socialism
on a world scale, inevitable by the
laws of historical development,
is no longer far off.”
“War is not needed for the vic
; tory,” he declared.
But he said, if capitalism tries
to resist, then the working class
es must “resort to arms” to bring
about a worldwide dictatorship
I of the Proletariat.
Khrushchev’s speech was in the

I Eisenhower Budget Very
Disappointing in 'he Eyes
Of Alaskan Delegates
JUNEAU UP) — The Alaska Con
gressional delegation said Mon
day that the Eisenhower Adminis
tration’s budget shows “the same
callous disregard of Alaska’s
needs which it has exhibited
throughout the past eight years.”
Sens. E. L. Bartlett and Ernest
Gruening and Rep. Ralph Rivers,
all Democrats, joined in a state
ment wired to the Associated
Press. The statement said, in part,
of the Eisenhower budget sent to
Congress Monday:
“It is not only disappointing
but almost unbelievable that the
Republican budget would provide
not one cent for construction of a
single small boat barbor, navi
gation or flood control project
in Alaska when so much is need
ed in our state in these categories
to promote industrial develop
ment. . . .
“The recommendation that only
$100,000 be provided in the next
fiscal year to carry forward the
investigation of the Rampart
Canyon project ... is wholly in
adequate. . . .
j “Inasmuch as the total esti
mated cost to complete investi
i gations as Rampart is $1 million,
it would take 10 years under the
pace the Republican Administra
tion is attempting to set just to
complete the preliminary studies.”
SCOTS TO PICKET POLARIS
SUBS WITH SMALL BOATS
GLASGOW, Scotland —Scots
objecting to the new base for
American Polaris-firing subma
rines in Holy Loch have organ
ized a nuisance fleet of small
boats to harass the first vessel
next month.
The committee for nonviolent
action said today, “if possible we
shall place ourselves in small
boats in the path of the Polaris
submarines as they enter the
Holy Loch.”
IJ. S. Nazi Party
Leader Pelted with
Eggs and Tomatoes
BOSTON L'P) — An angry crowd
estimated by police at 10,000,
hurling eggs and tomatoes Sunday
ripped a swastika off George Lin
( coin Rockwell, self-styled “Fuehr
i er” of the American Nazi party,
and routed an attempt by him
and “four storm” troopers to
picket a downtown movie.
In Chicago, a group of pickets
wearing armbands and calling
themselves the fighting American
Nationalists were escorted away
from a Loop theater by police
after scuffling with patrons. Po
lice dispersed a crowd estimated
at 200.
Both theaters were showing the
same film, “Exodus,” a story of
the Jewish migration to Israel
and the establishment of the Jew
ish state.
Rockwell, of Arlington, Va., and
his companions, were led away
through a side door of the
theater, taken to a police station
in protective custody and later
placed aboard a New York-bound
plane. No charges were placed
against them.
At Boothway Harbor, Maine,
old-time vaudeville and radio
comedian George. R. (Doc) Rock
well, a close friend of the last
Fred Allen, indentified the Amer
ican Nazi leader as his son, a
former Maine artist and publish
er.
“He gets off on these things
every so often,” the father said.
Mounted police and foot patrol
men battled the Boston crowd for
more than an hour to rescue
Rockwell and his companions.
Some 53 countries grow tea, but
most of it imported into the U. S.
comes from India, Ceylon and
Indonesia ... a Ceylonese woman

"RUBBER BONES" WEBB
IN 3RD ESCAPE FROM JAIL
LONDON Uft — Harold “Rubber
Bones” Webb was arrested today
after his third escape from prison
since 1948.
Webb, 38, got out of Wands
worth Prison in a still undis
closed fashion last week. He was
serving four years for house
breaking.
He also escaped twice from
Dartmoor, regarded by the au
thorities as virtually escape
proof. The second time Webb dug
a hole in the floor of his cell
and wriggled to freedom through
a slender air pipe, hence his
nickname.
