Alliance with West Reaffirmed by Italy
ROME—(UPI) —Christian Democratic Premier Aldo Moro promised today that his new Catholic-Socialist government would work for a "more just and human society" in the spirit of the late President Kennedy.
Moro, occasionally heckled by Communists, opened debate on a confidence vote on his new coalition cabinet with a forceful noisy speech.
HE SAID ITALY would remain firmly aligned with the west and denied charges that his alliance with the Socialists would mean weakness before the Communists or right wing.
As Moro spoke, his deputy premier, veteran Socialist Pietro Nenni, a former holder of the Stalin Peace Prize, sat with bowed head following the premier's printed text.
WHEN COMMUNIST hecklers interrupted his speech, Moro told them in a subdued voice: "I think I'm being polite. Try to be so, too."
Moro warned the nation that if current economic trouble is to be overcome, businessmen and Communist-led unions both must accept government leadership and economic planning.
A revolt in the ranks of the Socialists last night shook Moro's new coalition but did not cut too deeply into his parliamentary majority.
THE CONFIDENCE vote is expected sometime next week, and despite the walkout by the pro-Communist faction of the Socialists, Moro had the strength to win it.

But the Socialist split hurt the prestige of the party and its top representative in Moro's government, Nenni, at a time he was bringing his forces out of opposition for the first time in more than 70 years.
The pro-Communist faction, headed by Tullio Vecchetti, had opposed participation in the government from the start and staged its walk-out after Nenni overruled Vecchietti's demands for a special Socialist Congress to consider policy changes.
AMONG THE changes Veecheti demanded as a condition for supporting the government were a more neutralist foreign policy. Moro is a firm backer of Italy's membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and Nenni has agreed to support continuing NATO ties.
The exact strength of the pro-Communist faction was not known, but Vecchietti's announced decision to oppose the government or abstain in the confidence vote could not cut deeply enough into Moro's majority to topple the government.
Besides the Socialists, Moro has the Republicans and the Social Democrats as coalition allies. The Social Democrats are the product of an earlier split from the main Socialist party—this one in protest to Nenni's former links with the Communists.
MORO'S PLATFORM for the first center-left alliance since World War II is economic stability at home and loyalty to the western alliance abroad.
The Communists, Liberals, Neo-Fascists, and Monarchists were aligned in opposition to the government.
Nenni, who headed the Socialist party for more than 40 years, stepped down last night in the same meeting at which Veechetti's group left the party. Under party rules, he cannot hold a government post and the party leadership at the same time.
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — House Leaders had two big job training and school aid bills ready for action today. Both were expected to pass, but one may be due for some cost cutting.
The bills scheduled for consideration were:
- A $1.5 billion compromise measure to expand federal aid to vocational education five-fold, to increase federal college student loans 50 per cent and extend the life of an aid program for schools crowded by the children of servicemen and federal workers.
House to Vote on Key Measures
The education bill, worked out this week by House-Senate conferees, has so much appeal to House members that it was expected to go through unmarked by anything more than critical GOP oratory.
House Republicans planned to take their swings at both bills, but the prospects were for little success on the vocational school measure.
- A $100 million yearly expansion of the 1962 manpower training law, including new programs for jobless youths and unscholled adults. It also would give states extra time to start paying part of the retraining program cost. The bill would increase the previous federal commitment by about $481 million in the next four years.
THE REPUBLICANS are hampered by the fact that there was no
Kenya Celebrates Independence Day
NAIROBI, Kenya—(UPI)—Nearly nine million Africans of many different tribes and languages today celebrated their first day of independence under the Kenya flag.
IN NAIROBI, the new nation's capital, tens of thousands of Africans thronged the streets after the British flag came down.
At midnight Kenya became the 34th African nation to claim statehood, ending 65 years of colonial rule.
More than 250,000 persons had witnessed independence ceremonies at Uhuru (freedom) stadium. They included Kenya's Premier, Jomo Kenyatta, U.S Undersecretary of State G. Mennen Williams, and the Duke of Edinburgh, consort of Queen Elizabeth II.

But the manpower training bill was wide open for changes. The Republicans were ready with a proposal to lop the entire $266 million request to fund the new youth and adult education programs during the life of the bill.
THE GOP economy bloc feels its amendment could be backed up with two arguments.
The Republicans still would authorize the new programs and the extra funds needed give the states an extra two years before they would have to pay half of all training costs.

way left for them to amend the bill short of sending it back to the conference committee. This could kill the whole measure, and they do not want that to happen.
First, the Republicans contend that provision for residential-type job training schools and experimental "work-study" programs in the vocational school bill trespasses on the field previously staked out for the manpower training law.
Second, they feel the labor department has failed to make a convincing case that it would need $100 million a year to expand the program. One GOP member supporting the cut said "This may be a deep cut, but they can come back here next spring and give us some realistic figures."
