Pa. (AP) Shooting for a big upset, I.W. Abel grabbed a slim unofficial lead Wednesday over incumbent David J. McDonald in steelworkers' balloting for a president.
An Associated Press tabula-. tion gave Abel a edge with 2,184 of the union's 3,300 locals reporting. Abel's headquarters gave him a much bigger lead. McDonald's claimed their man was ahead. The vote was close enough to make steelmakers shudder, fearful that the election might wind up in a court battle and delay resumption of basic steel contract talks.
With some big locals still unreported, Abel held 181,540 178,762 advantage in the AP tabulation. It was based on returns submitted from the union's 29 district offices. Abel's headquarters in Chicago gave their man a bigger edge to 131,281. This reportedly covered 1,556 locals. At the same time, the McDonald camp in Pittsburgh reported him leading 157,802 to 119,600 with McDonald 1,486 locals issued a reporting.

Congress to reduce to $50, retail value, duty-free exemption for homecoming travelers. The tax on bank loans is the same penalty tax the "interest equalization tax" now imposed on Americans' purchases of foreign stocks and bonds. Johnson called for a twoyear extension of the levy. But the biggest saving "well over $1 billion," by Secretary of the Treasury Douglas Dillon's estimate is expected to come from Johnson's call for a voluntary, concerted clampdown by the U.S. banking industry on long-term overseas credits.
Antitrust immunity for the cooperating was asked by the President, a device last used in the War. Similar restraint without specific antitrust immunity was asked by Johnson of industry leaders, to check the risin, flow of direct investment in European plants. Favorable responses came quickly from top businessmen, and the reaction of congressional leaders was almost wholly favorable. In words clearly intended to reassure the world that the dollar is strong and getting stronger as evidenced, he said, by steady narrowing of the payments deficit each year since 1961 Johnson told Congress: "Clearly, those who fear for the dollar are needlessly afraid. Those who hope for its weakness hope in vain.
"The dollar is, and will remain, as good as gold, freely convertible at $35 an But progress has been too slow, and. a sudden upswing in the deficit in recent months (thwarted gap official to $2 hopes billion of in reduc- 1964. The year's deficit was about $3 billion, Johnson said. He presented a broad program to carry out the nation's "firm determination" not just to narrow but to wipe out the payments deficit. While the presidential program was drastic, it stressed voluntary measures and omitted several proposals widely discussed in recent weeks.
Missing, for example, the bringing home of any troop: units from overseas; the suggested levying of a $100 "head tax" on each American tourist going abroad; and any move to boost domestic interest rates to keep investment dollars at home. The message, in short, reflected Johnson's determination not to weaken American military strength abroad or jeopardize the four business boom by money-tightening measures.

"The registrars of Dallas County have made every reasonable effort to obey the civil rights act you passed last year but they were unable to conduct their business properly because of the disruption of the procedure by a singing, dancing, stamping mob," Martin said. "The people of the community (Selma) have been held in a grip of turbulence created by outside agitators who, for their own sell reasons, have spread unrest, flaunted the laws, both federal and state, and have stirred up suspicion and mistrust between the Negro and the white races," he said and added: "How long, America, are we to submit to these gross indignities?"

In a report submitted to the governor, King said that 19,539 old age pensioners received medical care while 2,179 other aged persons not on pension rolls received aid under the Medical Assistance for the Aged (MAA) program. While state regulations permit up to 30 days a year of hospitalization, King said that in most cases the elderly people were hospitalized from three to six days.
More than threefourths of those who received such assistance required only one hospitalization period during the year. More than 75 per cent of the hospital care recipients were white persons, King said, and more than two-thirds of the total patients were women. The medical services during the year cost about $13 million with about $7 million going to hospitals and $6 million to nursing homes. About $60,000 was paid to doctors. Frank P.

The Montgomery lawmaker is chairman of Alabama's fivemember Republican delegation, and acts as official spokesman for the group. He and three of his colleagues came to Selma at the same time the other group of congressmen were studying the situation there.
He denied that the Republican landslide in Alabama last November which resulted in his own election, and the election of a host of other GOP candidates was a fluke. "My county (Montgomery) has gone Republican the last three times, he said. "When you consider that the state gave Nixon 48 per cent of the vote and Jim Martin 48.9 per cent, you can see how this thing evolved." The latter reference was to the race between now-congressman James Martin of Gadsden and Sen. Lister Hill. He added that GOP House members from other states were giving him and his fellow Alabamians pointers on how to re-elected.

Clark said he did not see any of his officers jab anyone with a nightstick. Newsmen who were discovered following the procession were stopped at bridge about two miles from the courthouse, but FBI agents in cars following the walking and running students made detailed reports and took pictures. One heavyset Negro girl couldn't make it.
Breathing heavily and weeping, she was permitted to drop out of the line. Earlier in the day, helmeted deputies under Clark's direction matched wits with, another group of teen-age marchers in a comic opera production which sent pupils and bright yellow buses moving back and forth like a checker game.
