Change Predicted
By Congress in
Civil Rights Bill
WASHINGTON UP—Sen. Know
land <R-Calif> predicted after a
White House conference with
President Eisenhower yesterday
that Congress will change the
Senate’s civil rights bill before
passing it finally.
Knowland, the Senate Republi
can leader, told reporters the
“general feeling is that the bill is
not in satisfactory form at the
'present time.”
House Republican Leader Mar
tin of Massachusetts, speaking
with newsmen separately after
GOP congressional leaders had
held a weekly conference with
Eisenhower, said of the civil
rights bill:
“It is unacceptable to the Pres
ident in the form it is now in. He
intimated strongly that it doesn’t
meet what he is seeking to obtain:
the right of all people to vote.”
Martin said Republicans in the
House “will fight the Senate bill
as it is now and hope for a rea
sonable compromise in confer
ence.”
The Senate reduced the House
passed bill to what is primarily a
right-to-vote measure. It also
provided for jury trials in all
criminal contempt cases, an
amendment which has drawn vig
orous fire from the Administra
tion.

New Jobs Seen
Possible Soon for
Bulganin, Zhukov
WASHINGTON (^—Diplomatic
officials speculated yesterday that
new jobs may be in the offing for
Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin
and Defense Minister Georgi
Zhukov.
The speculation about another
Kremlin shakeup was inspired by
t h e circumstances surrounding
party boss Nikita Khrushchev’s
rendezvous in Romania last week
with Yugoslav President Tito.
Bulganin missed those talks—
believed to have dealt with prime
satellite political topics—and also
was omitted from the list of offi
cials joining Khrushchev in a
scheduled visit this week to East
Germany.
Speculating on new Kremlin
moves is an uncertain business at
best, diplomatic officials conced
ed, but they hazarded guesses
that:
1. Bulganin, noticeably shrink
ing in prominence since Khrush
chev thwarted an attack on his
leadership last June, might be
kicked upstairs to the presidency.
This powerless post now is held
by the aging Klementi Voroshi
lov.
2. Zhukov, President Eisenhow
er’s World War comrade in arms,
might succeed Bulganin as pre
mier, giving Khrushchev a chance
to cash in on Zhukov’s high per
sonal popularity with the Russian
people and making official a gen
eral belief that Zhukov now
rates second only to Khrushchev
in Russian power.
But there has been speculation
abroad that the premiership in
stead might to go Anastas Mikoy
an, the deputy premier and eco
nomic expert named to accom
pany Khrushchev to East Ger
many.

Eisenhower Won’t
Use Threats to Get
Political Action
WASHINGTON, iff)—President
Eisenhower today answered crit
ics who have contended he should
have pushed more actively for
the kind of legislation he wants.
He said he’d be the first to say
that sometimes he msfy not have
been as effective as he might
have been.
But he said he insists on limit
ing himself to the effort to con
vince members of Congress of the
logic of his position without re
course to threats of club.
If that’s wrong politically, Ei
senhower said, then it’s wrong
but it’s his way.
A reporter asked why Eisen
hower doesn’t withhold support
from Republican lawmakers who
fail to vote for his measures. He
replied he has said before he has
various degrees of enthusiasm
for Republican candidates and
has his own ways of expressing
them.
