2 The Newi-Review, Roseburg, Ore. Sat., Aug. 17, 1963 Wallace s 'Rights' Proposals May Be Sidestepped A t Parley "WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va. (UPI) Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace, who has hint ed -that he may enter some presi dential primaries next year, plans to present five civil rights resolutions to the Southern Gov ernors Conference which gets un der, way here Sunday. The "fighting little judge," an nounced in Montgomery Friday that he will present the touchy resolutions and ask the governors lojgo on record in opposition to President Kennedy's proposed civ il rights measures. -In so doing, Wallace may let loose a hornet's nest similar to the civil rights controvery that erupted last month in Miami Beach at the National Governors' Conference. ' The conferences traditionally avoid controversial issues. Last year, at the Southern Governors Conference in Hollywood, Fla., the chief executives operated un der a gentlemen's agreement that the touchy civil rights issue would not be brought formally before the group. Fifteen Attend The conference here lasts through Wednesday. - Seventeen southern and border state gover nors are members, but only 15 will be present. So many of the southern and border states governors meeting have adopted moderate postures on civil rights that majorities in favor of Wallace's resolutions ap pear impossible, even if the Ala bama governor attempts to force the issue. Wallace has not said what he would do if the conference reso lution committee declines to re port his five proposals to the floor to adopt them. The five-man committee that IT FORCIBLY REMOVES REFUGEES These photos were taken Tuesday from a Coast .Guard patrol plone at Anguilla Island, The Bahamas.

(Photo by Coast Guard photographer Milton Nelson for UPI) will consider the resolutions in an executive session, is not a standing committee. It will be named by conference chairman Orval E, Faubus of Arkansas after the four-daymeeting begins. Wallace's resolutions would put the southern governors on record in calling for defeat of the Ken nedy administration civil rights program in Congress, denouncing use of federal troops to enforce school desegregation orders, 'and protesting the massive civil rights march planned in Washington Aug. 28. They also would protest what Wallace has termed Communist participation in recent racial dem tary Robert McNamara's order onstrations, and Defense Secre permitting cities with segregated facilities to be placed off limits to military personnel.

Oregon Man Eyed WASHINGTON (UPI) - Gen. Herbert P. Powell was nominated by Prcsidenr-Kennedy Thursday to be ambassador to New Zealand. Gen. Powell, GO, is a nativo of Monmouth, Ore., and was chief of tho U.S. Continental Army Com mand before retiring from mili tary service. Hatfield also announced he would attend a meeting of Ihe Re publican Governors' Association in Denver, Colo., Sept. 14. "The significance of the forma tion of this association is to pro vide another channel of communi cation to the national committee in its policy formulation. "The governors will join Senate and House leadership and the na tional committee as full team members rather than as casually consulted observers as had been too much the case in the past." Hatfield said he expected most of the governors would be present including Rockefeller, William Scranton of Pennsylvania and George Konincy of Michigan. Rockefeller, Scranton, Romney and Goldwatcr are presently the leading contenders for next year's Republican presidential nomina tion. Hatfield, often mentioned as a vice presidential possibility, has avoided directing his support to any one of the four front runners. - Dr. EARL JOHNSON DENTIST Announces Office Hours: In GLENDALE, OREGON On MONDAYS and SATURDAYS Z Appointments may be made during ; the week ot Glendale Rexall Drug.

Senators Seek Nuclear 'Bill' From President WASHINGTON (UPI) Penta gon sources said today there is little doubt the Kennedy adminis tration will furnish the Senate a "bill of particulars" detailing its specific safeguards against los ing ground from any Soviet vio lation of the nuclear test ban treaty. Detailed specifications of how the administration will proceed with underground tests and main tenance of laboratory and test site facilities were demanded by senators on the preparedness and armed services committee groups. The sponsor of the move, Sen. Henry M. Jackson, D-Wash., went so far as to say that the Senate needs a "second treaty" with the I executive branch to "make sure they will in good faith carry out what they say they will do." Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, chair man of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, assured the three-committee group handling the treaty he is confident the "safeguards" sought by the military themselves will be provided. Sen. Howard W. Cannon, D Nev., said that if the bill ot particulars does not resolve sena torial questions about the treaty, they might "requre a very specif ic statement from the President on these safeguards." . During testimony Friday before a closed session of the prepared ness committee, Gen. Curtis E. LcMay joined Taylor and other military chiefs in supporting the treaty. Sen. Barry Goldwater, R Ariz., and other seantors gave re porters a consensus of the Air Force leader's views following the hearing. It indicated that while LcMay urged ratification of the pact, he had more reservations than other military leaders. Amendment Attache d To 'Bracera' Farm Labor Extension Is Worry To Advocates WASHINGTON (UPI) Rep. Charles M. Teague, R-Calif., said today that hopes for extension of the Mexican farm labor pro gram had "definitely" been im proved. But Rep. Harlan Hagen, D Calif., expressed doubt there would be a "useful" extension of the program for bringing hracer os into the United States to help harvest crops. The Californians, both members of the House Agriculture Com- The .House earlier this year mittee, were asked for comment i a simple iwo-year on the Senate's action in voting to extend the program for one year. n The Senate voted 63 to 24 to extend the program but tacked on an amendment requiring farmers to offer housing, transportation and other benefits to domestic workers before being allowed to use bracero labor.

Commission Chairman En nis Keizer, a North Rend Physi cian and surgeon, said almost all of Oregon's 174 licensed nursing homes had cooperated with Wel fare in caring for patients.

Sanders. The charge was brought in the district attorney's information. The judge ordered a pre-sentence inves tigation prior to imposition of sen tence. Poole was charged with acting with a 17-ycar-old girl in the pro curing of third parties for the pur pose of having intercourse with the girl, which "did manifestly tend to cause (the girl) to become a delinquent child." It was understood a Grand Jury indictment against Poole charging him with procuring a female for immoral purposes would be drop ped. The case of a third person, Todd Prnitt, allegedly involved with the girl has been disposed of in a similar manner. Poole was represented by George Wciguni, and Thomas O'Dell han dled the state's case. Suspect To Face Burglary Charge Oregon Receives Education Money SALEM (UPI) Receipt of a $1.2 million Ford Foundation grant to support the Oregon Program was announced Friday by the State Department of Education. The money will be used by lo cal schools, colleges and the State Department of Education cooper ating under the Oregon Program in efforts to improve Oregon Edu-, cation in the public schools. Dr. Leon P. Minear, superin- J tendent of public instruction, said : improvements in education result- j ing from the program "will result in a more effective use of the tax dollar." Oregon Program participants in clude the State Department of Education, nine Oregon colleges but there were no disorders Newsmen were not allowed to talk to Perez at the airport or at the prison. The ex-president, who spent eight months in a Miami jail while his attorneys fought in vain to prevent his extradition, ap peared haggard, stoop-shouldered and baggy-eyed when he arrived here Friday night. As a former chief of stale, he will have special privileges dur ing his trial, which is expected to begin late this year and continue into 1064. A special three-cell "suite" walled off from the rest of the prison has been prepared for him at San Juan Penitentiary, and an army orderly will serve him breakfast in bed. He will not be required to wear prison uni form or to conform to the usual prison routine. extension of the program. Unless extended, the program will die December 31. Both Teague and Hagen, inter viewed separately, agreed that the amendment by Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy, D-Minn., might make the program "unworkable." Teague said congressmen from bracero - using states probably would meet early next week to plan their course of action. He said they might push for a bill calling for a simple one year ex tension. If successful, he said, this would force a House-Senate conference on the differing ver sions. , Hagen said any effort in the House probably would be on the basis of a simple one year ex tension, hut said he was not op timistic that it could pass since the House already had rejected a two year extension. . Farmers Must Plan On the other hand, Hagen said, the bill with the Senate amend ment might be unacceptable to most growers. Even a simple one year extension, he said, would be "relatively useless" because farm ers had to plan their crops far in advance. The McCarthy amendment calls lui uuinesLiu wumci!) to wmn- mcn's compensation, housing, transportation and a guarantee of a minimum amount of work all benefits now granted to the Mexican workers. Teague said the amendment had even gone beyond changes asknd by the Kennedy Administra tion in requiring farmers t o guarantee U; S. 'workers a min imum number of days of work. Another problem,' he said, was the requirement for comparaoie" housing. The Mexicans, who come with their families, are provided DarracKs-type nousing, wnue aom estic workers are expected to demand family housing.
