Minister Sir Roy Welensky of the Rhodesian Federation, warned here today he will "use force if necessary" to carry) out his policies in the central) African grouping of British ter- ritories. | He issued the warning at Lon-| don Airport after flying in from| Rhodesia in a last-ditch bid to) block British moves expected to| give Negroes a bigger political say in the protectorate of North- ern Rhodesia. Welensky, who has arranged showdown talks with the British government, referred to an ear- lier statement of his that he) would "go the whole hog if} necessary" to protect the fed-|« eration. Bidwell Quits Chairman Post In Exchange NEW YORK (AP) -- J. Trw- mega Tadwell resigned the pow- erful post of chairman of the board of governors of the New York Stock Exchange Tuesday following a federal grand jury Use He added: "It means that I would take every step neces- sary to carry out the policy that I wish to carry out and use force if necessary." Welensky arrived from his capital of Salisbury a few hours| before the British government) was due to outline its new con stitutional proposals for the pro- tectorate. The copper - rich territory,) with the protectorate of Nyasa-! land and the self - governing) colony comprises the eration. | Jelensky, who is reported to} have described the latest Brit-| ish constitutional proposals as! 'not good enough,"' was ex-| pected to be present in the gal-) lery of the House of Commons| for their presentation by Colo- nial Secretary Reginald Maud- ling. Several British newspapers said that Welensky was un- invited and unwelcome in Lon- don, but the right - wing Daily Express said it believed the Rhodesian leader would meet with Prime Minister Macmil- Jap, In Salisbury, the Rhodesia Herald predicted that Welensky! might present an "ultimatum"| to Macmillan under which the indictment charging him with evading $55,908 in income taxes. He claimed persecution from "high places in Washington," and said "neither the investing public nor the stock exchange is involved." The government, too, took pains to emphasize that the in- dictment dealt with Bidwell's personal taxes and had nothing to do with his activities at the exchange. But the indictment added fire to persistent rumors of a wide- spread tax investigation in the securities field.

It resulted last month in the resignations of President Ed- ward T. McCormick and board chairman Joseph Reilly. The two - count indictment against Bidwell accused him of concealing capital gains, and faking expenses for travel, charitable contributions and en- tertainment., The grand jury charged Bid- well, 58, with listing joint in- come with his wife for 1956 and 1957 as $124,404, when the ac- tual income totalled $208,202. It said Bidwell listed taxes for the two years as $55,035, when the figure should have been $110,- 943. Conviction could put him in prison for a maximum of five years, and also carries the pos- sibility of a fine up to $10,000 Bidwell, who will plead to the indictment on Monday before Federal Judge John M. Cashin, issued a statement in which he declared 'I have fully paid all my taxes." Henry M. Watts Jr., 57, vice- chairman of the exchange board, automatically succeeded Bidwell. J.
