The two did not shake hands.
Atlanta Plans First
Integrated School
ATLANTA, Ga. (AP) Atlanta
leaders are completing plans for
Georgia s first public school de
segregation at the high school
level Wednesday, cautiously op
timistic that law and order will
prevail.
Preparations have been made
to prevent trouble when 10
Negroes start attending classes
with more than 4,000 white pupils
at four widely separated city high
schools.
The other schools remain seg
regated in the traditional pattern.
Total enrollment in the Atlanta
public schools is estimated at 48,
000 Negroes and 69,000 whites.
The 700-man police force has
received detailed instructions. Re
ligious leaders, politicians and
business and professional men all
have appealed for peaceful com
pliance with the federal court or
der for integration.
Mayor William B. Hartsfleld
urged Atlantana to meet "this
challenge with the kind of civic
pride, order and dignity that At
lantans have been famous for
since the civil war." This past
weekend was devoted to "law and
order" observances and more
than 600 houses of worship of all
faiths in the city were asked to
take part.
Church appeals were issued the
day after 850 church laymen
called on the children of the city
to accept the sociological change
"with dignity, doing no act of de
fiance or ill manners which can
reflect on you, your faith, your
rearing or your community."

Carnival Blast
Fatal To Three
ODESSA. Wash. (AP) Burn
injuries from a bottle gas explos
ion and fire that ripped through
a popcorn stand at a carnival in
this farming community claimed
a third life Monday.
Jeff Palmer, 3, Odessa, died in
a Spokane hospital Monday morn
ing of burns that covered much
of his body.
His brother, Robert, 2, died
while being rushed to the Spokane
hospital and the operator of the
stand, Mrs. Patricia Kelly, Seattle,
was killed in the explosion Sun
day which turned much of the
carnival into a torch.
The boys and their mother were
standing in front of the stand
when the blast occurred.
Jeff Palmer had been among
five listed in critical condition at
Spokane. Four others were hos
pitalized and another nine treated
and released.
A doctor said a number of oth
ers had minor burns and did not
go to a hospital for treatment.
Tho cause of the explosion was
not known. Tho stand was de
stroyed, as were a candy stand
in the same trailer, two tent-cov
ered concession stands and part of
a trailer which contained the car
nival office.
The afternoon performance of
an adjoining rodeo had just start
ed so tho carnival area was al
most empty of most of the crowd.
The carnival, owned by A. T.
King of Tacoma, Wash., is called
King s Show, and it was in Odessa
in connection with the rodeo.
Mrs. Palmer, Jeff Palmer, 3,
and Glen Dry, 26, St. Louis, were
listed in critical condition. Billy
Palmer, 4. was described as in
fairly good condition.
Dry ran a rodeo concession.
Witnesses said they saw him run
ning with his clothes on fire just
after tho blast.

Technicidii Admits He Invented
Device To Bilk Telephone Firms
WASHINGTON (AP) A Flor

ified today he invented a device
which has been used by some

The technician, Walter Shaw,
former equipment engineer for
the Southern Bell Telephone &

that the invention was intended
Monroe Rioters
Sent To Prison
MONROE, Wash. (AP) Four
teen ringleaders of a riot which
wrecked the slate reformatory
auditorium Saturday nights were
transferred Sunday night and
early Monday to the state prison
at walla walla.
Reformatory Supt. Ernest Tim
pani said others among the 100
or so who took part in the 70
minute rebellion would be ques
tioned during the day but he did
not expect any more to be taken
to the prison.
Damage to the auditorium, orig
many estimated at $5,000, was
scaled down by Timpani but he
said an accurate figure could not
be obtained until mainte nance
crews complete their clean-up
Monday.
The rioting inmates smashed
three television sets, shattered
windows, tore up furniture and
ripped out plumbing fixtures.
The trouble started when the
prisoners were ordered back to
their cells at the end of an hour's
recreation period to watch a box
ing match on television.
Doors were quickly bolted, the
disturbance isolated, armed
guards summoned and the State
Patrol and sheriff's officer alert
ed. Two warning shots fired into
the room from .38 caliber pistols
stopped the outbreak. The men
were led out meekly 10 at a time.
Timpani said the cause of the
riot had not been definitely de
termined, and until all questions
are answered the troublemakers
will be kept locked in their cells.
The institution's 650 other inmates
remained quiet during the trou
ble. Increase Is Noted
In Juvenile Crime
WASHINGTON (AP) Juve
nile delinquency, often thought of
as only a big city problem, is
rising in white collar suburbs, re
port Senate investigators. They
reported an increase too, in so-
canca inriu crimes.
Nationally from sprawling
slum to crossroad hamlet crime
among youngsters set a record in
1959, the latest complete year of
tne study, said the Senate Juve
nile Delinquency subcommittee
Sunday. It asked for more money
to combat the problem.
The subcommittee's figures cov
ered a study from 1940 through
1959 and a preliminary study of
mucn of i960.
"An alarming change in pat
terns" in juvenile delinquency his
evolved since 1910, said the re
port. The number of cases was
177 per cent greater in 1959 than
in 1958, soaring to a record of
773,000 juvenile court cases In
volving 666,000 children 10 to 17
years old.
"Big cities are still by far the
greatest producers of delin
quents," the report added but
noted a 7 per cent rise in dc
linquency in suburban areas and
15 per cent increase in rural areas
in 1959.
"This 'trend to the suburbs in
juvenile crime is a clear indica
tion that the increase is largely
among the children of the so-called
white collar classes, said the re
port.
The senators said social scien
tists have found "parents are los
ing much of their former control
over children.

for that purpose. He said it could
have been modified by someone
else.
Testifying before the Senate In
vestigations subcommittee, Shaw
said he is under indictment in
Florida and "100 per cent sorry"
he ever got mixed up with the
invention.
He first invoked the Fifth
Amendment on questions about
the device, known variously as a
"cheese box" and an "automatic
dialing transfer equipment de
vice." When used, he said, the device
registers a busy signal at the
telephone offices, but actually
transfers the call to a different
preselected telephone number.
He refused to say whether
Archie John Gianunzio of Ma
maroneck, N.Y., paid him to
produce the devices as was al
leged in testimony last week.
Gianunzio also had invoked the
Fifth Amendment on this.
Shaw insisted the devices were
in an incomplete stage of produc
tion the last time he saw them
at a Mamoroneck address nrevi-
ously identified in the hearings at
uie nome ot iiianunzio.
He denied he had installed any
of them, and swore he does not
know who now possesses 75 of
them the police believe are in the
hands of racketeers of clan
destine race wire news service
operators.
Chairman John L. McCIellan,
D-Ark., told Shaw he had, by an
swering som questions, and tak
ing tne rirtn on others, forfeited
his right to invoke the constitu
tional protection, but that the
subcommittee would be lenient
because of his pending indict

Searchers Find Child
At Silver Creek Falls
SALEM (AP)-A little girl, lost
overnight near Silver Creek Falls
State Park, was found alive and
well this morning.
There were no immediate de
tails. The girl, Grace Price, 3, had
wandered away from a family

Sheriff's officers organized a

The area is known as the Upper
Smith Creek Camp, northwest of
the main park. There are some
creeks nearby, but no abrupt
dropoffs and falls such as mark
part of the Silver Creek Falls

make searching difficult.
The girl is the daughter of Mr.

New Portioning
Bill Attacked
SALEM (AP)-The expected at
tack on Oregon's legislative reap
portionment bill was made today.
State Sen. Vernon Cook, acting
as attorney for Charles McKinley,
Donald G. Balmer and Howard E.
Dean, asked the state Supreme
Court to throw out the act passed
by the last legislature.
And at the same time the Su
preme Court was asked to direct
the secretary of state to draw up
a reapportionment in accordance
with the Constitution and to have
it before the court for approval
by Oct. 1.
As Cook had outlined earlier,
his formal petition said that the
reapportionment bill failed to
give enough senators to Lane and
Multnomah counties and enough
representatives to Lane, Multno
mah and Jackson counties.
Lane should have three sena
tors instead of two and Multno
mah should have nine instead of
seven, the petition says, and Lane
should have six representatives
instead of five, Multnomah 18 in
stead of 16. and Jackson three
instead of two.
This, the petition says, is be
cause the Constitution requires
that the total population of the
state be divided by the number
of senators and representatives to
arrive at the proper ratio and that
once this is done the county to
tals must be assigned on the basis
of this ratio and the county popu
lations. The last legislative session
failed to do this, the petition
says, "although it was possible
to do so."
And it concludes that if the leg
islature "is permitted to ignire
the mandate of the Constitution,
it will continue to abuse its
authority."
Resentencing Due
Convicted Rapist
Forly-three-year-old Ernest C.
Watson, of Idleyld, was returned
to Douglas County over the week
end for resentencing on a previous
conviction for rape.
According to a spokesman for
the District Attorney's office, Wat
son is still considered a convicted
person, but a new sentence must
be handed down. He said Watson's
case is a resentencing on a tech
nicality arising out of the fact he
was not given a copy of a psy
chiatric report. He had been serv
ing his time in the state prison.
Twenty-year-old William Lon Ma
dron was returned from the Ore
gon State Hospital to stand trial on
a rape charge. The Myrtle Creek
man, accused of a rape earlier this
summer, had been sent to the state
hospital for a mental examination.
Sheriff's office records indicate he
is considered capable of standing
trial for the charge.

if any of the Big Three knows a

low that route.
The Big Three have said they

production workers have shared
in industry progress over the

that have brought the average

UAW Vice President Norman

Sunday against Chrysler, a money-loser
in this year's first half.
He said he would ask the UAW's

Directors of the union's GM and

Officer Injured
In N. Carolina
Racial Violence
MONROE, N.C. (AP) The
City Council planned to ask an in
junction today against anti-segregation
picketing by mixed Negro
and white youths which set off a
weekend of violence in this city
of 10,000.
A policeman was wounded Sun
day, a white couple was held hos
tage for several hours by Ne
groes, and the highway patrol
said 20 shots were fired at a car
load of white persons passing a
Negro integrationist's house.
Sporadic fights downtown re
sulted in at least 35 arrests. Most
were charged with inciting to riot.
Mayor Fred Wilson sent a tele
gram to U.S. Atty. Gen. Robert
Kennedy saying the city had been
invaded by "Freedom Riders"
and "carpet baggers." He asked
that they be "restrained by your
office."
The Justice Department said it
has asked the FBI to learn the
facts.
Negro and white pickets from
as far away as England and Chi
cago have been carrying placards
in downtown Monroe for several
days. They handed out leaflets
charging discrimination in city's
recreation facilities, in hiring by
local factories and saying welfare
officials deprive Negroes of re
lief. Sunday's melee started as the
pickets were about to disband. Of
ficer J. W. Rushing said he tried
to disarm a Negro picket who
then fled but turned and shot him
in the hip. The wound was not
serious.
