Rail Union Head Of Kennedy Plan Urges Rejection To End Dispute WASHINGTON UPI) A rail union spokesman said today that the railroad dispute is not nearly as hopeless as the public has been led to believe. Roy E. Davidson, head of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers, urged Congress to allow union and management to pro ceed with collective bargaining and to reject President Kennedy's proposal for solving the contro versy. Davidson insisted that collective bargaining had been "virtually unused dispute. "To the small extent that it has been used," he told the House Commerce Committee, "it has brought this dispute close to peaceful negotiated resolution." Practically No Disputt The rail industry, which sup ports the Kennedy plan to turn over the dispute to the Interstate Commerce Commission, has said practically no progress has been made in talks on the key issues. Labor Secretary W. Willard Wirtz continued mediation efforts in the snarl during the weekend during the four-year-old, without any reported break in ' the stalemate. The renewed me Police Jail Race Demonstraf ors In California, Virginia Cities By United Press International ' About 125 Negroes and whites protesting segregation were ar rested Sunday in demonstra tions in California and Virginia.

Demon strations also were staged In Den ver, Colo., and Pine Bluff, Ark. hut no arrests were reported in those cities. Danville police, sweltering In 102-dcgrce heat, intercepted 77 Negroes marching on city hall and loaded them into paddy wa gons and a tractor-trailer when they sprawled out on the pave ment. Drain Area Notes 15th Anniversary For IS years. Drain area people have enjoyed some of the county's finest recreational facilities at the North Douglas Living War Memor ial. The swimming pool, in parti cular, has afforded pleasure to thousands. Sunday was the date chosen to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the memorial's dedication. Paul 0. Cormier directed the program. An estimated 300 people turned out for the program which began with a group in the pool displaying sheets of plywood spelling out "Hello." Tom Myers, Drain's mayor, was master of ceremonies. lie intro duced some of tho men who made l vc memorial park a reality. These ' -n, Jim and Ernie Whipple, Hur- ' Woolley and Ed Wetzel, took I In the anniversary eclvhru- ic program .which lasted for i hours, had among its features riulin group from the Central I and YWCA in Eugcno which id several water ballet-typo numbers. "Teaching Johnny To Swim" was demonstrated by Jean Mill, swim ming instructor. She showed the method she uses to make the be ginner into a swimmer. Other exhibitions included those from the swimming and diving teams. Music was furnished by a Yon calla combo, "Tho Safari 7." The program concluded with the original group displaying markers forming an American Flag. The Lions Club barbecue, begin ning at 7, topped off the memorial celebration. Negroes had promised to defy a city anti-march injunction with a march by thousands hut the dem onstration fell far short of the promise. At Farmville, Va., about 50 miies Irom Danville, 22 Negroes who attempted to attend services at a white-only church were ar rested on charges of "interfering with church worship," Torrance, Calif., police, aided bv mounted deputies, arrested 24 pickets protesting ' alleged racial discrimination at an all white, housing tract. Tho pickets, mem bers of the Congress of Racial Eciuality (CORE), were charged with aiding, abetting and consul ing other demonstrators who staged sit-down protests the day before. At Denver, heavyweight boxing champion Sonny I.iston appeared briefly at a civil rights march urging support of President Ken nedy's civil rights legislation and about 25 Negroes were chased out side a segregated hamburger stand in Pine Bluff, Ark., when a white youth tossed ammonia into the small building. There were these other racial de velopments: Ocala, Fla. Police sought two while men witnesses said fired shotgun blasts into the home of in tegration leader Dr. L. R. Hamp ton. No one was injured. Philadelphia Postmaster An thony I. Lambert warned that picketing threatened by the Na tional Association for the Advance ment of Colored People (NAACP) could lead to federal violations. The NAACP has threatened to picket Philadelphia's main post office today to protest alleged promotion discrimination against Negro postal employes. Vlcktburo, Mill. An official of the ijjuisluna Mississippi Arkan sns Ku Klux Klan called for mass demonstrations and outdoor ral lies by segregationists to counter Negro civil rights clcmonsirauons diation efforts were suspended alter sessions Sunday. Davidson testified at the fourth day of House hearings on tne president s proposal to solve the problem. Denouncing the administration plan as have (he other rail union leaders, Davidson said: ". . .it would be hard to con ceive a proposal more unsatisfac tory to railway labor, more fraught with danger to our free dom, or less likely to result in ul timate harmony and cooperation between railway management and railway labor." Asks Alternative AFL-CIO President (ieorge Meany has urged Congress to adopt an alternative to the Ken nedy proposal. Meany has sug gested that a special committee of House and Senate members be set up to oversee a new ro md of "glass bowl" negotiations to work out the tangle on rail work rules. Meany was expected to testily this afcrnoon on his plan before the Nenate Commerce Committee. Davidson stressed several times his belief that full-fledged collec tive bargaining had not been fully utilized and was the only proper solution to the problem. "Despite the carriers' public ut terances to the contrary," he said, "there has been consider able progress toward the settle ment of this dispute and under the surface the dispute is not nearly so hopeless as it might seem to the public." 2 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore.

A fire of undetermined origin broke out at the National Plywood Co. plant on Highway 99 BR south of Roseburg early Saturday eve ning, but caused no extensive dam age.

The Roseburg Rural Fire Depart ment answered the call at 6:56 p.m. Saturday when the fire broke out in the vicinity of the repair snop ann log slip. Both the Rural and Hosebure City Fire Departments had several grass fires over the weekend. The two departments joined forc es on mutual aid calls on grass fires near Hucrest School twice Saturday afternoon. The first fire was in the rural district and the second in the city. The city department also answer ed a grass and rubbish fire call at 2754 NF; Douglas, about 12:05 p.m. Saturday. The rural department answered a call at 4:32 p.m. Sunday when Z'rt acres of grass were burned near the department's substation in the Green area. Two of the grass fires answered by the rural department were start ed by persons burning without per mits, assistant chief Bud Wheeler said. One was on highway 99 BR south near the Highway depart ment scales and the other behind the Hucrest School. The rural department was called lo the home of J. W. Francoeur on River Bend Road when a lawn mower caught on fire, causing $160 damage. The. case is expected to go to : coffee bar and had relations with her at Dr. Ward's flat, but not for cash. Begins Summation Then Burge turned to the jury of 11 men and one woman to be gin his summation on the general (heme that Ward was simply a man who found his own particu lar fountain of youth was to sur round himself with pretty girls and what was wrong with that? "But," the attorney went on, "if you are there to make sure the public conscience, shocked by a major scandal should be ap peased and a penalty should be paid, then you could hardly find a more suitable object for expiation than the accused who has admit ted he is a loose liver whose con duct has been such as to deprive him of sympathy from any quar ter." But he vigorously denied that the 50-year-old society osteopath and artist had been guilty cither of living on immoral earnings or of procuring young girls for men in high places the charges against him which carry a pos sible maximum of 25 years in prison on conviction. No "Babes In Woods" Burge said that neither Miss Keeler, 21, nor her colleague, Marilyn (Mandy) Rice-Davies, 18, were DaDes in tne woods when Ward befriended them, but there was a vast difference between be ing promiscuous and being a prostitute. Miss Rice - Davics has claimed affairs with film and. television star Douglas Fairbanks Jr., and Viscount Astor who have denied it. Miss Heeler's simultaneous ro mances with war minister John Prnfumo and Soviet naval attache Capt. Eugene Ivanov led to Pro fu run's resignation in disgrace and a House of Commons debate on security which almost toppled the government.
