Both Portugese and Span ards aettled the country. It also has had a fair-sized immigration of Italians and east and central Eu ropeans. The few native Indians were almost completely eliminated by the 19th Century, although about IS per cent of the population is mestizo (mixed Indian and white), Negro or mulatto (mixed negro ana while). Only about 33 per cent of Uru Busy's population is rural, al though It is chiefly supported by a pastoral economy, more man a intra oi us people live in Monte video, the capital.

Its coldest month is June when temperatures drop to an av erage of SO degrees. Uruguay is considered a strong friend of the United Slates and has no strong popular backing for communism. Two of Its cities have sister city affiliations with U.S. cities.

Cardinal Asks End To Promises Of Non-Catholics In Marriages BOSTON (UPI) Richard Car dinal Gushing urges abolition of the "famous promises" which Ihe Catholic church asks of a non Catholic in a mixed marriage. The cardinal described as "an irritant to many" the promises which primarily require that chil dren of a mixed marriage be baptized and reared as Catholics. Cardinal dishing made known his views in two interviews with the Rev. Walter M. Abbott, S.J., feature editor of the Catholic weekly publication America. The high prelate placed himself on the side of the church fathers who want a resumption of Vati can Council II. The first council was convened by Pope John XXIII. If the council follows the pas toral approach of the late pon tiff, Cardinal Cushing said, "there Famed Youth Choir In Concert Tonight The touring Westminster Youth Choir of the Osk Cliff Presbyterian Church of Dallas. Tex., will sing at the Roseburg First Presbyterian Church tonight at 8 o'clock. The public is invited to attend. The sixth annual tour of this group is taking them into eight western states. Director of Ihe 75 voice choir is William C. Everitt and accompanist is Elian Smith. Five previous tours have taken the choir into 24 states and they have given concerts in more than 50 churches and impromptu con certs in such places as the rotunda of the Senate office building in Washington, D.C., legislative build ing of the Manitoba Province in Canada. Illinois Monument ot the Vicksburg National Military Park. Don McNeill's Breakfast Club which is broadcast from Chicago and a 30 nunute program of spir ituals and secular music in Disney, land, Calif. The purposes ot this group are to serve the church through mu sic, to develop a closer fellowship with people of other churches and to project the part that youth can take in the leadership and growth of the church.

Chief among these, he said, should be a rewriting of church law on mixed marriages and ab olition of the church's index of prohibited books. The cardinal said "the require ment that a non-Catholic partner make the famous promises before marriage Is an irritant to many, and some . . . make the promises in bad faith. "If we no longer required the promises, we would not be revok ing any divine law; we would not be changing any dogma of the church." The cardinal said the index of prohibited books has caused many problems. For example, he said, "some Catholic scholars want to read Communist publications to obtain a clear understanding of the enemy. Also, he said, "it Is simply im possible to handle all the requests that would come in on a personal basis for permission to read books on the index that teachers think their students should know something about." Larceny Suspect Held After Escape From Law EUGENE (UPI) - A larceny suspect who escaped, handcuffed. through a small window in the Lane County courthouse Sunday (was recantured by police south of Cottage Grove early today.

Stemmed Sliced Sugared Attorney General, Dixie Solons Talk Civil Rights Legislation WASHINGTON (UPI) Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy met for nearly two hours today with South ern aenatort to discuss the ad ministration's forthcoming civil righta legislation. He told them final details still had not been worked out. Details of the closed meeting at the Capitol were skimpy. But one participant. Sen. Allen J. Ellen der, D-La., conceded dryly after the session that "there wasn't much meeting of the minds." The attorney general'a session with about a dozen Dixie senators came as President Kennedy was Storms Leave Death Trail In Midwest By United Prott International Thunderstorms and tornadoes left a trail of death and destruc tion in the Midwest today. Tornadoes touched down in Michigan, Minnesota and North Dakota Sunday. The twisters struck three times in the area around Grand Rapids, Mich., and 1.70 inches of rain fell there in six hours ending this morning. The tornado caused $100,000 damage at Belmont, Mich., five miles north of Grand Rapids. Lightning destroyed a service sta tion and several persons were in jured, two seriously. A tornado also was sighted near Cascade Twp., cast of Grand Rapids, and at Hudsonville, on the southwest edge of town. Un confirmed tornadoes were report ed over Howard City and in Michigan's Newaygo County. The drowning toll alone ran into the dozens during the week end. Two accidents in Wisconsin took three drowning victims each. Three men drowned in Lake Win nebago Saturday night. A father and his two children drowned in the Wisconsin River near Spring Breen. Ten persons drowned in Ohio, and the toll in Indiana was nine water deaths. A powerful wind shook an American Airlines plane that was landing in Chicago's O'Hare Field. A stewardess and two pas sengers suffered bruises and were treated at a hospital. Thunderstorms lashed scattered parts of New England Sunday on the 10th anniversary of the Wor cester tornado. That twister, in 1953, killed 94 persons, injured 140, and did about $7S-million damage. A teen-ager was killed in a head - on collision in Tyngsboro, Mass., during a driving rain storm. Minor flooding and wash outs were reported in the same western Massachusetts area. Rainfall amounts for the 24 hours ending late Sunday includ ed Denver .90, Milwaukee .87, Amarillo. Tex., .78: Boston .69, Cleveland .66 and Detroit .56. A severe thunderstorm hit Cambridge, Ohio, which already had floods from heavy rains last week. Firemen went to the mu nicipal park pond to pump out some of the. rain so the dam would not break. A tornado blew down a ham and damaged the house on a farm near Janesville, Iowa. A Jackson, Mich., man was killed early Sun day when he tried to move a downed electrical wire carrying 4,000 volts.

The President told the graduat ing class of American University here that in seeking world peace, the nation must look inward to assure that there also Is peace at home. With reference to the adminis tration's forthcoming civil rights proposals to be presented to Con gress, the President said the gov ernment has a responsibility to see that freedom is guaranteed to all citizens. He said Congress also must do its part In this respect and cor rect inadequacies where they ex ist. Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield, Mont., said the attor ney general told the Southern sen ators, however, that no "final conclusions" have yet been reached on details of the civil rights package. His statement reinforced other signs that the proposals would not be submitted to Congress until late in the week. The President has scheduled another meeting Tuesday with a group of business executives with operations in the South to appeal for voluntary desegregation of public facilities. He also will meet later in the week with union leaders to seek equal job opportunities for Negroes. There appeared no doubt that Southerners would attempt to fili buster the plan to death in the Senate. Mansfield said this was not discussed at today's session but made clear there was no question in his mind about the Dixie tactics. In the Senate today, a Southern senator predicted that the Senate would enact an administration civil rights program this year. Sen. George A. Smathers, D Fla., said it appeared that the lawmakers would override any Southern-backed attempt to fili buster the program to death. 12 POUND 2 - SPEED 3 - CYCLE Multi - Temp. G.E.
