TV in Review
By WILLIAM EWALD
United Press International
NEW YORK (UPI) — CBS-TV's Desilu Playhouse has had some sticky going this season, but Monday night it uncorked an hour with some swift and crackle in "The Untouchables."
"The Untouchables" was the first half of a two-parter which will deal with the efforts of a squad of seven federal agents to poleax the Capone mob. To keep it honest, I should add that Paul Monash's TV script is based upon a book co-authored by Eliot Ness of the FBI and Oscar Fraley of the UPI, an alphabetical orchard in which I also toil.
However, I believe this review is free of bias and anyway, Praley already has the money. At least I hope so, Oscar.
Monday night's opening chunk was a trifle episodic, but when you're setting the stage in this sort of large-scale operation I suppose a little jumpiness is inevitable. Even so, director Phil Karlson kept events spinning at a pretty fair clip and one sequence—which dealt with an attempt to set up a tricky telephone tap—a real gripper, stuffed with a painfully effective combination of humor and grinding suspense.
Almost all the performances were quite serviceable although Joe Mantell in the role of a fink was given an almost impossible part into which to lace any believability. In major roles, Keenan Wynn, Barbara Nichols, Robert Stack and Bruce Gordon chipped in solid jobs, and appearing briefly as Al Capone at the close, Neville Brand was suitably monacing if a trifle stilted in his employment of an Italian accent. Part Two should be worth an hour of your time next week.
Short Shots: I caught only the first half of ABC-TV's special, "The Investigators and The Law," because it overlapped Desilu Playhouse. It struck me as an engrossing effort and some of the footage of the old Kefauver crime hearings and McCarthy investigations was captivating—all of it still had a rather eerie feeling of immediacy, of an unrehearsed drama exploding right in front of the eyes. TV has largely abandoned this sort of live sustained coverage of events, a melancholy circumstance, since it is TV at its most exciting.
The Channel Swim: A live situation comedy with Don Ameche. Too Young To Go Steady, will replace NBC-TV's Oldsmobile Music Theater on May 14. CBS-TV will build a one-hour special around the Geneva conference May 10. CBS-TV's Ed Sullivan has postponed his August trip to Rome—the now plans to film a show there during the fall.

Death Penalty Bill Up for Vote
By MICHAEL FALLON
United Press International
SACRAMENTO (UPI) — A modified bill to abolish the death penalty in California was given a 50-50 chance for survival today on floor of the Assembly.
The bill by Assemblyman Lester A. McMillan (D-Los Angeles) did stop capitol punishment on an eight-year trial basis.
Linda Christian Sues One Power Estate
OLLYWOOD (UPI) — Linda Christian filed suit Monday seeking $200,000 from the estate of the Tyrone Power, her former land and father of her two daughters.
Ms. Christian, who earlier obtained $1,300 monthly support for daughters, Romina, 7, and Ann, 5, from Power's estate, denied in her Superior Court suit that she had promised to set up a fund for the children in addition to any provisions made in his will.
Ms. Christian also has a split ruling against Power's estate for her their 1955 divorce settlement. Power died last November heart attack. His will provided for his widow, Deborah, child and his two daughters Miss Christian.
Home Tax Mistake $3 OK'd in Bill
SACRAMENTO (UPI) — A bill to individuala a $3 mistake in state income taxes was approved Monday by the Senate Push.
On the eve of the lower house debate, McMillan said he had rounded up 39 votes, two short of the number needed for passage.
"Whether they'll stay with me I don't know," he said. "It will be close, there's no question about it."
McMillan said the swing votes were held by eight assemblymen, mostly first-term lawmakers who claimed they were "still on the fence."
Opponents Pursue Key Votes
Opponents of abolishment were reported to have been working the Assembly floor Monday in an attempt to capture the key votes.
Earlier, Assemblyman Walter I. Dahl (R-Oakland), chairman of the Republican caucus, said GOP legislators had voted "overwhelmingly" to battle the anti-death penalty. There are 33 Republicans in the 80-member Assembly.
The minority party caucus vote came before McMillan amended his bill to place an eight-year moratorium on the death penalty. In its original form, it would have abolished capital punishment outright.
In place of the death penalty, the measure provides for a life-term sentence with no eligibility for parole until 10 years have been served. Parole then could be granted only with approval of all members of the Adult Authority and five of the justices of the Supreme Court.

Castro Says Cuba Will Aid Forces Seeking to Free Dominican Republic
By GARCIN KAGANOWICH
United Press International
PRINCETON, N.J. (UPI)—Cuba's Prime Minister Fidel Castro said Monday night his government will give all aid short of war to forces seeking to "liberate the Dominican Republic" from the leadership of Rafael Trujillo.
Castro spoke before a Princeton University graduate seminar after an uproarious friendly greeting from more than 1,000 other students and a few Cuban neighbors.
He was to make a morning visit to Lawrenceville School here and then head for New York for a four-day round of speeches and meetings with the city's large Cuban colony.
Castro told about 250 students and faculty members at Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School of International and Public Affairs that the Trujillo dictatorship in the Dominican Republic is "one of the worst contradictions of the hemisphere."
He said it was a danger to nation, and other American countries because the island nation could be used as a springboard for anti-revolutionary forces.
Cuba would "like to liberate the Dominican Republic." Castro said, and will give all possible answers to anti-Trujillo forces but will not go to war to help them.
Castro said also he expects no mority parties will appear in the near future in Cuba in opposition to his revolutionary regime. He said his government will do nothing to muzzle their dissent.
Nevada's population in 1970 expected to be 67 per cent greater than it was in 1955. Arizona is expected to grow by 66 per cent during the same period. California is 54 per cent and Florida 53 per cent.

Ford's for the business
There's no reason why a pleasure car shouldn't give you the economies of the businessman's favorite personal transportation. And, of course, it does—when it's a Ford. Every Ford with standard Six or Thunderbird V-8 uses regular gas...needs an oil change only every 4,000 miles...never needs its Diamond Lustre finish waxed...and has aluminized mufflers for twice the life. You'll enjoy the pleasure of saving money in cars like these:
Custom 300 Tudor Sedan...
The best thing that ever happened to an expense account or modest family budget.
In a lot of Ford families, this is the perfect companion to a Ranch Wagon.
Ranch Wagon...the thriftiest 2-door wagon going. Wagons by Ford make getting there half the fun of any outing.
Maybe you don't buy a car very often. But we know how much you'll enjoy your new Ford. And the pleasant experience of dealing locally! In fact, we'll make it worth your while to become our steady customer.
...of having fun!

Showdown Near On Labor Reform
By ALVIN SPIVAK
United Press International
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The Senate moved toward its first 1959 showdown on the labor reform issue today with Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) predicting a "safe margin" of votes to keep his bill intact.
Kennedy, chief sponsor and floor manager of the measure, said he expected the Senate to crush a move by Sen. Sam J. Ervin Jr. (D-N.C.) to strip the bill of Taft-Hartley law changes demanded by organized labor.
A vote was scheduled this afternoon on the Ervin proposal, one of 130 pending amendments.
Ervin, who co-sponsored the Kennedy bill but split off on this issue, was backed by southern Democrats and some Republicans, including Sen. Barry Goldwater.
Water Fluoridation Bill OK'd by Solons
SACRAMENTO (UPI) — A bill to permit local determination of fluoridation of water from municipal utility districts was approved Monday by the Senate Public Utilities Committee.
The bill was introduced by Sen. John W. Holmdahl (D-Oakland) and would provide for an election on adding fluorine or its compounds by persons living in the district.
(Ariz.), senior GOP member of the Senate Labor Committee.
He was supported in debate Monday also by Chairman John L. McClellan (D-Ark.) and Vice Chairman Karl E. Mundt (R-S.D.) of the Senate Rackets Committee.
Mundt described the Kennedy bill as akin to "the proverbial boy sent out to do a man's job."
But Senate GOP leader Everett M. Dirksen (Ill.) and various other Republicans, plus what Kennedy considered a solid contingent of northern Democrats, were lined against Ervin's move.
AFL-CIO sources looked upon today's vote as the key test of the Kennedy-Erwin bill's fate. They felt that if the line could be held there the bill would go through in its present form — a form satisfactory to that organization's leaders.
Explains Move
Dirksen told newsmen he was opposing the Ervin amendment only to retain "a vehicle" by which administration - proposed Taft-Hartley amendments can be considered later. These would include bans on secondary boycotts and organization picketing.
Kennedy, who opposes the administration measures as "too controversial" at this time, wants to hold the bill's Taft-Hartley revisions to those involved in the
