LAUDERDALE NEWS 12A Friday, Aov. 15, 1963 Ship Crippled Bai rrr r- To Goes ottom p4 JSt After Collision iseveral hours before Coast Guardsmen brought the fire im der control The Dynafuel's captain, Kar-sten A. Pedersen of Basking Bridge, N.J., was credited with keepmg casualties and damage to a minimum. From the bridge, Pedersen saw the Fern-view looming on a collision course and ordered a sharp right turn.

Then he ordered a general alarm to arouse the crew, and released a carbon dioxide system into the tanks of his ship. COLLEGIATE FREE-LOADERS Colorado State University students began climbing into this one-time hearse on the Ft. Collins campus' to see how. many it would hold.

"Some nurs-health director, yesterday saidjing homes don't want these pa- tients under any conditions," he said He cited a case, however, of a Hallandale nursing home which at first would not take indigent persons.

SDeakine to the Broward County Area Hospital and Plan- ning Council, Dr. Hughes agreed with a report drafted by Dr. Herman Smith, hospital consultant asking for 175 additional beds' in the North Broward Hospital District. Speaking against using a Broward General Hospital building as a nursing home for welfare cases, he said it would not be economical to operate. He also said the building is too small for this use.

Dr. Hughes also said the number of professional nurses caring for indigents must be increased. The indigent patient needs a place to go after being discharged from a hospital, it has been shown. Yesterday, it was suggested the council gather 3 RALLY BONFIRE SET DAY EARLY TALLAHASSEE Somebody set off the Florida State University pep rally bonfire last night a day early. All that remained in the early morning sun was a pile of gray ashes.

Every year, the night before the homecoming football game, FSU students stage a gigantic pow-wow pep rally around a bonfire. But, last night, the makings went up in smoke about midnight. Carol Ann Grizrard of Lakeland, student chairman of the pow-wow committee, said efforts would be made to gather enough fuel for the real thing tonight.

The FCD asked Congress for $17.5 million, but President Kennedy, in his first-of-the-year recommendation, set the figure at $14 million.

Officially, Goldwater does not recognize this organization and will not do so until he is ready to announce his candidacy for the nomination. It can be assumed, however, that O'Donnell can get the senator on the telephone any time he has something important to discuss. Leaving out the activities of the draft Goldwater committee, the senator's presidential campaign until recently was a haphazard affair. Headquarters for it was where-ever Goldwater happened to be. In recent weeks all that has been changed.

William Flythe a former newspaperman, has been installed as speech writer and general assistant to Goldwater's hard pressed press secretary, Tony Smith. Denison Kitchel, whose official title is manager of the Goldwater campaign for reelection to the Senate, has moved from Phoenix to Washington and is beginning to think on a national scale. One of Kitchel's projects is to compile a microfilm library of what Goldwater has said in two books, 800 speeches, countless press conferences and numerous television interviews and speeches. PRECAUTION TAKEN This is a precaution against Goldwater being forced to sit down and eat an unpalatable meal consisting of his own words. The latest to join the Gold-water camp is Edward A.

Mc-Cabe, a 45-year-old Washington lawyer who was an administrative assistant to President Eisenhower from 1956 to 1960. His title will be research director and he will assemble a group of consultants to advise Goldwater on pre-convention strategy. Some Goldwater men already are at work out in the country. Sen. N'orris Cotton, is in charge of strategy in his native state.

William F. Knowland, former Republican senator from California, heads a Goldwater advisory committee on the west coast. It is impossible to estimate the total amount of money being donated to the Gold-water cause. The draft Gold-water committee says it needs much more money than it is receiving, but there never has been a political organization yet naive enough to concede it had all the financial backing it wanted. There is strong Goldwater support in Texas and the rumor factory says the senator is getting big contributions from the oil and cattle millionaires.

Goldwater told the New York Times this was a myth on the basis of trying to raise funds for the GOP senatorial campaign committee of which he is a former chairman. "I can name a dozen states that have given more money to campaigns than Texas," he said. After his reelection to the Senate in 1958, Goldwater reported he had received $25,000 in campaign contributions and spent $19,000.

The emperor opened a spe cial conference of. foreign ministers of 32 African nations Aid Bill Snagged By Grain (Continued from Page One) would be blamed if country af ter country fell to communism He said some lawmakers appar ently did not realize the aid program's importance.

"It's a very valuable arm in foreign policy," Mr. Kennedy said. Final showdown vote in the three-week battle over the aid bill seemed almost in sight last night, but the Senate bogged down in stormy wrangling over an amendment authored by Sen. Karl E. Mundt, It would forbid the export-import bank to guarantee privately financed grain sales to Communist bloc nations.

The Democratic leadership, spearheaded by party whip Hubert II. Humphrey, was arrayed for an all-out fight against the proposal before the final vote on the aid bill. Humphrey said he was confident both issues could be settled by late today. The leadership failed in its first try to knock out the Mundt proposal last night when the Senate voted 46 to 40 to reject a motion by Democratic leader Mike Mansfield, tp table and thus kill the amend ment. Mundt then moved to modify the amendment to include all manufactured products and all farm products as well as wheat.

He described as "ridiculous" the proposal to have the export-import bank guarantee 75 per cent of the cost of the wheat sales made through U.S. commercial banks. UNDERWRITING CREDIT "What we would be doing is underwriting the credit of the Communist countries," he said. "If the Communists didn't pay, the American taxpayers would pick up the tab." Chairman J. William Ful-bright, of the foreign relations committee opposed the amendment.

"This has nothing to do with foreign aid," he said. "We've already loaded this bill down with enough irrele-vancies. It is emasculated now to where it is unrecognizable." The dispute ended in deadlock and the Senate then recessed for the night. the six-month old Organization of African Unity (OAU), formed in the -same Africa Hall in Addis Ababa. "Any misunderstanding which arises among the brotherly members of this organization a family affair in which no foreign hand can be allowed to play any role whatsoever," Haile Selassie said.

"With God's help, we can find a solution if all of us have a common good will and an open heart. He made no reference to any particular nation in mentioning foreign intervention. Morocco has accused the United Arab Republic and Cuba of sending arms and volunteers to Algeria. 'ENOUGH BLOODSHED The emperor said he believed the people of Morocco and Algeria "had enough bloodshed in the past in the cause of their independence, and now we don't see any reason why they must fight each other." He said the aim of the meeting is to set up an arbitration committee. Members of various African delegations said they hoped the committee would settle the dispute before the OAU foreign ministers' regular meeting set for Feb.

JFK Skips Police Escort And Sirens (Continued from Page One) the President, might well have been an assassin. He lamented that Mr.

Kennedy was exposed to "unnecessary risks" by driving blithely into a situation where police had "no real control." The Secret Service, charged by law with protecting the President, would say nothing, but city police looked hopefully to ward it as a court of last resort. The service can overrule even the President where his personal security is involved. Yesterday, the President stood abreast the Mason-Dixon line between Maryland and Delaware and cut a ribbon opening the last link in a stop-light-free superhighway between New York and Washington. Mr. Kennedy will spend the weekend at Palm Beach interrupted tomorrow by a few hours inspecting Cape Canaveral Hia tour will be capped Monday by five speeches in Florida three in Tampa and two in Miami.

The Associated Press BUZZARDS BAY, Mass. A mortally crippled oil tanker, a 20-foot hole gouged in her side by a collision with a Norwegian freighter, sank today 50 minutes after the ships were disen gaged. The end for the Dy- nafuel came some 25 hours after she collided with the Fernview 10 miles west of the southerly entrance to the Cape Cod canal in patchy fog. The Coast Guard said water poured into the gaping opening in the Dynafuel's side carved by the collision. The ships were hauled apart by a commercial tug.

Dynafuel sank in shallow wa ter, her "bow protruding above the surface. During the night the Dynafuel drifted east from the point of collision. She first capsized, then sank near Quick's Hole, the Coast Guard said. A strong north east wind whipped up six foot high waves as the Dynafuel went down. NO ONE ABOARD There was no one aboard when Dynafuel sank.

Fernview's bow sliced in the port side of Dynafuel yesterday mornmg. The Coast Guard said a com mercial tug, the Tom Cat, out of New Bedford pulled the ships apart. Both ships caught fire almost immediately after the collision. Five tankermen were hospital ized with burns and other in juries, but none was in serious condition. Flames seared the ships for U.N.

Pulls Authority Over U.S. (Continued from Page One) this country protecting them from prosecution. Earlier in the debate, Soviet delegate S. A. Azymov and Afro-Asian speakers claimed Article 103 of the United Na tions Charter took precedence over laws of the United States.

The clause states: "In the event of a conflict be tween the obligations of the members of the United Nations under the present charter and their obligations under any other international agreement, their obligations under the present charter shall prevail." Section 11 of the "headquarters agreement" between the United States government and the U.N., which laid down conditions under which the international organization could settle in this country, provided this government would "not impose any impediments to transit" of persons invited to appear on official business. U.S. KEEPS CONTROL However Section 13 (B) makes clear that "the United States retains full control and authority over the entry of persons or property into the territory of the United States and the conditions under which persons may re- mam or reside there. An opinion issued by the U.N. legal counsel, C.

A. Stavropou-los, backed the United States position in the Galvao case. He said it was clear the U.N. would be in no position to offer general assurances to Galvao on immunity from legal process during his sojourn in the United States. SHOWF.IS tr rtmrc lm i.S.

The labor federation supports the Ken nedy tax cut bill. Mr.

Kennedy said he gave the tax legislation higher prior ity than civil, rights or federal aid to education. Promoting racial equality is "all important," he said, but more jobs are needed to make civil rights legislation effective and education will spur growth and higher living standards only if jobs are open for high school and college graduates George Meany, AFL CIO president, has been calling for increased public works, a higher minimum wage and a 35-hour week to stimulate the economy and reduce joblessness.

There is room for a tax cut, Byrd said, if substantial reduc-i tions are made in spending. Instead, he said, the Kennedy administration is planning an increase in expenditures in the coming fiscal year. The President said in a speech for the fifth biennial convention of the AFL-CIO that the need for more jobs and economic security was the overriding domestic issue in the United States. The business recovery may be running out of steam, he warned. Mr.

Kennedy, who said he would not have been elected without AFL CIO support, termed existing unemployment an "intolerable waste" that should be attacked by slashing tax rates.
