o u o o African Members Of U. N. Face Fight For Boycott Of S.Africa UNITED NATIONS (I'PIV African members of the United i Nations faced a tough fight today! in an effort to win Security Coun- j cil approval for a partial econum-; ic boycott of Soulli Africa. j The United States, Britain,! France and Norway were all re-' ported against the language of parts of a resolution tabled be fore the council Tuesday by Ghana, Morocco and the Philip pines. Since a resolution must have seven affirmative votes includ ing all five permanent members, Britain, France, the United States, China and the Soviet Un ion to win approval by the 11 nation council, some hard bar gaining seemed likely. The Afro-Asian resolution called on the council to approve a boy cott of all South African goods and to call on states to stop ex porting to South Africa any ma terials of direct military value. It also called on states to cease "forthwith" the sale and ship ment of arms and ammunition to South Africa. The U.S. has announced it will cease exporting arms to South America when current commit ments have been honored by the end of the year. Britain and France also were reported in fa vor of an embargo on arms which might be used by the South Afri can government against Africans. But the language of the resolu tion was seen by the Western I powers as too strong. 1 here were indications the resolution as it now stands would be supported only by the three sponsors. China. Venezuela, and the Soviet Union not enough to win acceptance. Bond Sales Are Up In State, County "Local and state sales of U.S. Savings Bonds are continuing their upward trend which commenced the first of the year," bond chair man L. J. Fullerton said here to day when announcing July sales of U.S. Savings Bonds in the coun ty totaled $76,363. He compared this with sales of S63.616 for the same month a vear ago. Slate sales for July of 1963 total ed S3.110.944, compared with 2, 702,306 in the same month in 1962. "Federal income tax deferment features of Series E Bonds seem to be one reason why more people are buying bonds," the chairman noted. "E Bond interest, unlike earnings of so many other forms of savings or investment, need not be reported each year for income lax. Thus owners of these bonds gain full benefit of guaranteed compound interest as long as the securities are held. Many persons plan to hold their bonds until a lime when they may be in a more favorable income tax situation, pos sibly with higher exemptions or less income due to retirement. This, of course can give a real tax advantage when the tax is finally due as the bonds are cash ed. "More persons seem to be aware of the fact that U.S. bonds are never subject to state or local in come tax. Also, Oregon banks re port a noticeable increase in the number of long time holders of E Bonds who are aware of the fact that these may be traded for Se ries H Savings Bonds, which pay interest each six months by gov ernment check. There is no in come tax due on the interest earn ed on the E Bonds until the H Bonds are cashed." Results Not Known In First Skirmish Over Civil Rights WASHINGTON (UI'l) The first important congressional civil rights skirmish is over, but it may be many weeks before the real winner is known. On the record, the House re jected an anti - discrimination amendment to a vocational edu cation bill Tuesday and then went on to pass overwhelmingly the measure which more than triples federal aid for job training schools. The House passed the vocation al education bill 377-21 after kill ing the civil rights amendment. 217-181. Only 24 Democrats, all Northern liberals, joined 157 Re publicans in the losing cause. Six Republicans voted with 211 Dem ocrats against the amendment. The bill would raise the pres ent $57 million federal aid for vo cational education to $237 million in four years. But before it sent the bill to the Senate, the House engaged in three hours of bruising debate that saw Negro congressmen in sharp disagreement and charges of hypoc risy flying from both sides of the political aisle. It ended in the first civil rights vote in cither house since President Kennedy's special message on the issue. After it was over, civil rights supporters disagreed on the effect the battle might have upon Presi dent Kennedy's main civil rights bill when it reached the House floor. Some thought Republicans who went on record for the mandatory cutoff of federal aid to segregated vocational schools had committed themselves to vote for civil rights when it is the main issue before the House in September. Others felt that House Demo cratic leaders, by holding the party line almost solidly against the Republican-sponsored anti-segregation amendment, had damaged the possibility of bipartisanship in future civil rights battles. !' r ; - j!
