Comment Varies As Hall Again Tries For Governor
(Compiled from United Press)
Varied comment whirled through Kansas today following Fred Hall's resignation from the State Supreme Court to run for governor again on the Republican ticket.
Schuyler Jackson, dean of the Washburn University Law School, was sworn in Monday to succeed Mr. Hall on the bench and thus became the first Democrat in 20 years to serve on the high court.
The March unemployment figure rose 25,000 to 5,198,000. The February unemployment figure was 5,173,000.
In Washington, unemployment slowed appreciably in March, while total employment showed the first over-all gain since the downward trend in jobs began last year, the government reported today.
Some Republicans said that Mr. Hall will bring upheaval to Kansas GOP hopes, while others doubted that this would happen. Many Democrats said that Docking could defeat Hall or anybody else.
Administration officials took the new figures as a heartening sign in their battle against the recession, even though March is normally a month in which unemployment decreases from 100,000 to 200,000 rather than increasing.
In Kansas, the number of jobless in Kansas declined by more than 2.000 in a two week period ending April 5, the director of the State Employment Security Division said today.
John Morrison, director, said unemp employment stood at 5.7 per cent as of April 5, compared to 6 per cent at the end of March 22.
Unemployment in Kansas, however, was still running higher than a year ago when the April 5 figure was 11,412, or 2.9 per cent jobless.
President Eisenhower today called on Russia to join the United States in banning the production of atomic
weapons. He proposed that nuclear materials be manufactured "only for peaceful purposes."
He brushed aside Premier Nikit Khrushchev's statements and note of last Friday proposing an immediate halt to nuclear test explosions.
The President said that the "timing, wording and manner of the Soviet declaration cannot but raise questions as to its real significance."
