The press in most West Euro pean capitals extended a wel come to the President, who ar rived Sunday in West Germany on the first leg of a four-nation trip. The West Germans themselves turned out in droves to greet the visiting American leader with wildly enthusiastic cheers. Police estimated that between one and a half and two million West Ger mans greeted Kennedy. Prior to Kennedy's departure from Washington, many Euro pean newspapers felt the trip was ill-timed because of the Pro fumo scandal in Britain, the po- JFK Pledged To Full Drive For 'Rights' By WILLIAM THEIS WASHINGTON (UPI) The Kennedy administration was l.wJ.TAf1 ffwlaM in a mavimitm IJ1CU5CU IUUBJ - drive for its civil rights program aespite expeciea loss ui liuymun ty among voters in some areas. Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy gave assurances Sunday there would be "no turning back" in the administration's efforts to press for broad new civil rights laws. Kennedy, appearing on a na tionwide television program, said the public accommodations sec tion of the President's program was "absolutely essential" to his civil rights package. He appeared on NBC's Meet the Press. The accommodations proposal, which would outlaw discrimina tion in motels, hotels, restau rants and other public facilities, has run into Republican as well as Southern opposition in Con gress. The attorney general said it was possible, however, that the administration might be willing to discuss some revision to ex empt small businesses from the provision.

"Right To Come" "Hi, Jack!" headlined the Lon don Daily Mail, adding in an edi torial, "He was right to come." Other newspapers, with more reservation, echoed this senti ment. The Communist newspapers and radio stations in Western Eu rope attacked the visit, but Lon don's Communist Daily Worker praised Kennedy's "anti-cold war" speech of June 10 and re served its criticism for Adenauer. In West Germany, the Frank furter Allcgemeine said Kennedy "struck right to the middle of the Rhenish heart . . . The offi cial advisers who opined Ken nedy would not be as well re ceived as De Gaulle are, hope fully, ashamed of their skeptical prognosis." In France, Le Figaro noted that Kennedy was skipping Paris on his tour. "This," it said, "is a sad and disquieting spectacle for those who obstinately believe that the security of the West can be guar anteed only by the cooperation of the United States and the in creasing solidarity of the free world." Cite Pledge Paris' Combat and Aurore said Kennedy's pledge of American defense of Europe indicated De Gaulle was wrong in doubting America's word to Europe. "The East will never attack as long as the free European coun tries and America present an un breakable bloc," Aurore said. "The presence of the American President is offered as a symbol of American presence (in Eu rope,)" Combat said. The London Daily Mail said Kennedy's tumultuous reception in Germany "is the first answer to those who complained that he ought to have stayed at home. . . President Kennedy had to come to Europe now because the At lantic Alliance has its own crisis and if it is to be ended only he can do it. To put it bluntly, he has come over to see that Presi dent de Gaulle docs not smash NATO."
