PAGE TWO JFK Pledges Subs to Europe OSLO, Norway (/P)—-President Kennedy’s administration pledged yesterday five Polaris-carrying nuclear submarines for defense of Europe as part of an American bid to beef up the defense of the Atlantic alliance Secretary of State Dean Rusk at the same time advised Nixon Criticizes Kennedy's Plans Says 'Drastic" DETROIT (IP) Richard M. Nix on, stepping up his atacks on the Democratic administration, said Friday President Kennedy's call for self-censorship by the press will encourage government offi cials to conceal facts the public has a right to know. The former vice president, who kept silent during the first 100 days Kennedy was in office, is on a weeklong tour in which he is critical of the man who barely beat him in November. He chose the Detroit Press Club “an appropriate forum,” as he called it to discuss a speech Kennedy made to the nation's publishers in which Kennedy urged self-restraint when nation al security is affected. “The, plea of security,” Nixon said “could well become a cloak for errors, misjudgments and oth er failings of government. “The whole concept of a return to secrecy in peacetime demon strates a profound misunderstand-1 ing of the role of a free press as opposed to that of a controlled press.” I Nixon had one word, “drastic,” to describe Kennedy's proposals.

PENNSYLVANIA Bomber Needed for U.S. Defense WASHINGTON (/P) The Senate Armed Services Com mittee agreed urfanimously yesterday that more manned bombers are needed than Pres ident Kennedy asked to defend the nation while the unmanned missile arsenaL is growing. That was the effect of a vote to add $525 million for 44 extra bombers to a $12,499,800,000 au thorization bill for missiles, air craft and ships. Otherwise, the committee went along with the President on what is needed in those fields. The senators* vote followed similar action last week by the House Armed Services Com mittee. When the House com mittee approved a $12,368,000,- 000 authorization measure, Chairman Carl Vinson, D-Ga., said the lime has not yet come when principal reliance can be placed on the intercontinental ballistic missile. •Tiie senators rejected a motion by Sen. Strom Thurmond, D-S, C.. to authorize $l6O million toward future production of the Army’s Nike-Zeus missile killer. The money would have been used to buy advance items if tests of the anti-missile missile in the Pacific this year are successful. The committee took no action on Air Force proposals to con tinue development of the 870 supersonic jet bomber as a com plete weapons system, rather than cutting it back to an experimental project as Kennedy asked. The 870 i: designed to fly 2,000 miles an hour at altitudes of over 70,000 feet Civil Service Study HARRISBURG UP) Rep. Har ris G.

The House has passed its own version of the authoriza- tion bill. Differences will be worked out by a conference com mittee. Approval was by voice vote, after the bill had been buffeted for hours in a hot debate over its proposed $33 million, drastically reduced program of family hous ing for personnel at military bases. A voice vote defeated an amendment by Sen. A. S. Mike Monroney. D-Olka., calling for 12.234 additional units of fam ily housing instead Of the 2,000 units the bill now would au thorize. The administration had remained outwardly neutral in this fight. As it passed, over vigorous pro test from Monroney and others, the bill would call a halt to the military housing program, under which homes for military per sonnel have been built for years by federally insured private en terprise. The construction bill author izes programs, but separate leg islation is needed to provide the money. The differences between the House and Senate versions are material, with the housing section apparently the most controver sial. The House had voted for ihe 12.234 units of privately con structed housing which the Sen ate rejected. The Senate-ap proved housing would be built with direct appropriations. As requested by President Ken nedy, the Senate-passed version would authorize an additional $10.25 million for nine secret pro jects in support of a speed-up in the Polaris and antisubmarine programs, and $l2O million more to help arm the nation with nine new Titan missile squadrons instead of the six extra squad rons proposed by the House. tfill J 4"no'w 'INHERIT THE WIND’ Starring SPENCER TRACY FREDRIC MARCH GENE KELLY Feat: 2:06, 4:23, 6:52, 9:16 STARTS FRIDAY ACADEMY AWARD WIN NER FOR BEST FOREIGN FILM OF YEAR INGMAR BERGMAN'S THE VIRGIN SPRING' Business, Editorial State Countrymen TONIGHT at 7 WEDNESDAY.

Lawrence said yesterday. But Lawrence at a news con ference sidestepped questions on whether he thought Mayor Rich ardson Dilsworth of Philadelphia and U.S. Sen. Joseph S. Clark, also of Philadelphia, were front runners for spots on the ticket. Clark already has said he will seek re-election with or without the support of Democratic lead ers. And there has been increased speculation in recent weeks that Dilworth "wants to run for gover nor. “I just hope the Democrats pick the best man they can get,” Law rence said. The governor said he didn’t want to comment at this time on the acceptability of an all-Phila delphia ticket next year.
