Amendment
Would Ward Off
Court Incursions
WASHINGTON </P> — Son. J.
Glenn Beall, (R-Md.>, said yester
day his nroposed constitutional
amendment to allow voluntary
non-seeretarian prayers in public
schools could well ward off future
court incursions into our religious
freedoms.
Beall’s remarks were made at the
opening of hearings by the Sen
ate Judiciary Committee on meas
ures prompted by the Supreme
Court ruling June 25 that official
prayers in the public schools are
unconstitutional.
Beall’s amendment, introduced
June 27 with the co-sponsorship
of 14 other senators, states that
nothing in the Constitution should
be construed to prohibit public
schools from providing for the
voluntary participation in non
secretarian prayers.
Beside Beall’s, there are other
constitutional amendments before
the committee that are designed to
nullify the court’s decision. The
committee also is considering
measures that simply would put
Congress on record as disagreeing
with the court.
A constitutional amendment,
even if approved by a two-thirds
vote by each branch of Congress,
would not become effective until
it had been ratified by three
fourths of the states.
Russ Embassy Don’t Know'
About Military to Visit C21
SEATTLE (#1 — A report two
high-ranking Russian military offi
cers would visit Seattle for three
days this weekend became more
puzzling Thursday when the Soviet
Embassy in Washington, D.C., said
it didn’t know anything about it.
Reservations were made by a
national car rental agency Wed
nesday at a Seattle motel for Lt.
Gen. Vladmir Dubovic, the em
bassy’s military attache, and his
assistant, Lt. Col. V. S. Tovma.
In Washington, an embassy
spokesman said:
"We do not know if any military
officers from the embassy are on
the West Coast and if they are
we do not know where they will
be going.”

U.S. HAS THIRD failure
IN HIGH-ALTITUDE SHOT
HONOLULU — A Thor boost
er rocket tipped with a nuclear de
vice was deliberately blown up on
its Johnston Island launch pad |
Wednesday night — marking the
third failure in four tries to ex
plode another high-altitude shot.
Joint Task Force 8 and the
Atomic Energy Commission an
nounced that, although the missile
destruction caused pad fires, no
one was injured and the blast
caused no hazard from radioacti
vity.
Their statement said:
“A check of Johnston Island dis
closed no injuries to personnel and
no hazards from radioactivity as
a result of the deliberate destruc
tion and burning of a Thor booster
and a nuclear device on the launch
pad.”
Joint Task Force 8 in the test
zone confirmed the Thor and the
nuclear device it wras intended to
lift had been deliberately destroy
ed, and that no one was injured.
The failure was another setback
to U.S. missile prestige.
It left open the probability that
there would be another try to de
tonate a warhead over the Pacific.
Wednesday night’s shot was to
have been fired from an altitude
30 to 40 miles high with a force
equal to 20,000 to one million tons
or TNT.

The solution to ills of the
salmon industry involves re
duction of the hair seal, stop
ping the destruction of the
herring (which is used for fer
tilizer' and other foods of the
salmon, construction of fish j
hatcheries and fish ladders, im- ;
provement of str e a m s and \
spawning grounds, enforcement
of fair regulations, reasonable
agreements with our foreign
competitors, regulations of off
shore oil drilling to prevent de
struction of the salmon through
uncontrolled blowoff of tide
land wells, and extensive re
search to improve quality and
quantity. No one measure is
sufficient by itself; all must be
used. This solution is not new;
all concerned (including my Re
publican opponents in their long
political careers' have looked
only to government for the an
swers, and knowing that Alaska
cannot afford the total cost they
have done nothing. This job must
be done by a combined concerted
effort with the state and the
industry furnishing materials
and money and the fishermen
their labor. Each will contribute;
each will gain. And those who
do not contribute will not be
entitled to the privilege of a
commercial license; this will
eliminate the free riders from
the south ’48. The first step is
to harvest a substantial number
of the millions of hair seal who
eat more salmon in Bristol Bay
alone than the total of all men
of all nations.
I have the determination and
the proven administrative abili
ty to complete this program and
make Alaska once again a para
dise for salmon and salmon
fishermen.

Hoffa, president of the Teamsters
Union, has challenged Sen. John
McClellan, <D-ArkJ, to repeat out
side Senate immunity statements
made about him in a Senate inves
tigating subcommittee report.
The subcommittee, of which Mc
Clellan is chairman, described
Hoffa in a report Wednesday as
showing a callous disregard of
whether his own union members
were robbed by their officers.
Hoffa, here for an Ohio Team- |
sters conference, said the report j
“is a complete fabrication and a |
lie.” He labeled McClellan as anti- I
labor.
Hoffa challenged McClellan to j
make the statement outside of Sen
ate immunity and said, “and when
I sue him, I wonder if he’ll take
the Fifth Amendment again like
he did in Florida.”
Hoffa previously had accused
McClellan of hiding behind sen
atorial immunity to avoid testi
fying at a hearing in Florida on
a mail fraud cause which Hoffa
said amounted to invoking the
Fifth Amendment.
