enies Rader’s
Charges of
Egan Pressure
JUNEAU MP> — The Juneau man
who introduced a controversial
resolution approved by the South
east District Democratic Conven
tion held here last weekend said
it was offered without pressure
from any source.
John Rader, Democratic candi
date for governor, charged the
resolution was pushed through the
convention by representatives of
Gov. Egan’s office. The resolu
tion urged Egan to run for re
election.
John Simpson, president of the
Greater Juneau Democratic Club,
said he introduced the resolution
and there “is no one, with the
exception of my wife, who can
put pressure on me.”
Simpson said he resented Ra
der’s statement that the resolu
tion was approved by state em
ployes reluctant to draw the ire
of the administration. He said
there was not a single state em
Iploye on the Resolutions and Plat
form Committee.
“For Mr. Rader to assume what;
he has, is to say the least, to be
absolutely wrong.
“The only proper interpretation
is that the Democratic party mem
bers in attendance hoped to make
certain that they would again
have the opportunity for leader
ship of proven ability and ex
perience.
“Mr. Rader, on one hand states
that he has personal knowledge
of dissatisfaction among state em
ployes, and on the other hand he
says these state employes are at
tempting to perpetuate this dis
satisfaction.”

President to Request
$10-Billion Increase
In National Debt Limit
WASHINGTON W — Sen.
Harry Byrd, GD-Va.), said Tues
day President Kennedy is request
ing a $10-billion increase in the
national debt limit.
The Virginia senator said he
will ask the Senate Finance Com
mittee, which he heads, to go into
all aspects of federal spending
and taxation before it acts on a
proposed boost of the limit from
$208 billion to a record-breaking
$308 billion.
Secretary of the Treasury Doug
las Dillon asked for a boost of $2
billion before March 1 and $8
billion for the fiscal year begin
ning next July 1. He said this
would have an estimated peak
debt of $304.5 billion next Dec.
16 and give the Treasury about
the $3 billion elbow room it needs
to operate under the ceiling.
Byrd said he is willing to go
along with the temporary increase
to $300 billion because “the Pres
ident told me personally that
otherwise the government couldn’t
pay its bills.”
“But before we make any fur
ther increases, I think the coun
try should be told exactly where
we stand financially,” he said.
We have gone along the road of
reckless spending and debt in
creases as far as we can go.”

Nikita Faces
Difficulties on
The Home Front
WASHINGTON UP) — Soviet
Premier Khrushchev is apparently
facing considerable difficulties at
home, say U.S. specialists in So
viet affairs. But they add that
the United States and its allies
have no reason to rejoice.
This is the specialists’ evalua
tion of such Kremlin riddles as
the strange story of V. M. Molo
tov, the rift 'between Moscow and
Peiping with tiny Albania in the
middle, the whereabouts of
Khrushchev himself, and a re
ported speech he made but which
was not printed in the Soviet
press.
These and other signs, sav the
observers, point to a struggle be
tween Khrushchev and a strong
Stalinist group in his party’s Cen
tral Committee.
The Stalinist elements, the be
lief is here, do not form an or
ganized group, but their number
may be large and they exercise
power both in the hierarchy and
in the lower level of the party
apparatus.
But this interpretation of So
viet goings-on does not particu
larly please Western observers.
Though it is expected that
Khrushchev will ultimately over
come any Stalinist opposition, he
might be forced to take into ac
count its views or return to
Stalinist terror and eliminate the
opposition.
Khrushchev, it is now believed
here by many officials, does not
exercise such a personal control
over formulation of policy as
Stalin did.

Demo Leaders to
Press Legislation for
Federal Aid to Colleges
WASHINGTON Uft — House
Democratic leaders announced
after a meeting with President
Kenndey Tuesday that they will
press legislation for federal aid
for colleges as a separate meas
ure from proposed federal funds
for public schools.
Both the college and public
school aid proposals were bogged
down last year in the House Rules
Committee. They were victims of
a controversy over whether to in
clude aid for parochial schools in
the general education measure.
President Kennedy took a stand
that aid to church schools was of
doubtful constitutionality, but
many Roman Catholic leaders in
sisted parochial schools should
have help if federal funds went
to public schools.
me administration nas recom
mended spending $2.5 billion over
the next three years on public
school construction and teacher
salaries. Its higher education bill
would provide $2 billion over a
period of years for college build
ings and scholarships.
