No Fuss at Rockefeller Faubus Share Stage in Arkansas Race
In a TV encounter Governor Orval Faubus and Republican challenger Winthrop Rockefeller appeared cordial, with little debate on issues. They largely praised each other and backed similar programs, differing mainly on gambling in Hot Springs and a potential tax hike. Faubus defended past casino operations and called for law and order while Rockefeller favored closing casinos sooner and challenged Faubus on gambling in Pulaski County. Both resisted tax increases, with Faubus open to a targeted levy if voters demanded it.

Security Risks Costly to Government
Washington AP reports on the Walter W. Jenkins case highlighting how the federal security screening system works and its gaps. It notes 230 checks for nonsensitive posts at $5 each and 35,000 field investigations for sensitive jobs at about $90 each, with agencies sharing duties across the Civil Service Commission the BI and military branches. It explains clearance levels from cabinet to National Security Council attendees and cites Jenkins’ access to NSC information and a top secret Air Force clearance in 1956. It contrasts executive branch rigor with Capitol Hill practices where some committees require FBI checks while others hire with minimal screening.

Election officials warned over ballot form confusion in Arkansas
A Republican official in Little Rock charged that county election commissions may print ballots not compliant with state law. Richard Butler said a list issued by Secretary of State Kelly Bryant is being mistaken for a ballot, risking voided votes if voters split tickets. Attorney General Bruce Bennett believed ticket splitting could be permissible, while Bryant described the document as a candidate list, not a ballot.

Recommends One Box for All on Arkansas Ballots
Arkansas Attorney General Bruce Bennett recommends counties print a single ballot box beside each presidential ticket rather than a box for every candidate. He cautions that splitting votes could risk a ballot being nullified, though both formats are legal. Some counties already printed boxes per candidate and need not reprint. Bennett’s staff is studying potential complications.
