2 The Ncws-Reviw, Roseburg, Ort. Thur., Aug. 29, 1963 Civil Rights March Gave Impetus To Struggle For Racial Equality WASHINGTON (UPI) The greatest civil rights march in U.S. history, hailed as a huge success by its backers, gave new impetus today to the American Negro's centuries-old struggle for racial equality. A vast throng, estimated by Police Chief Robert V. Murray to have numbered more than 200, 000 at its peak, converged on the capital Wednesday for the rally which resembled more a revi valist camp meeting than a mili tant civil rights demonstration. At the end of a long and weary day, with words of praise from President Kennedy and Washing ton officials, they streamed out of the city by bus, train, plane and auto in the same disciplined manner that prevailed throughout the "march for jobs and free dom." The President, who met with the 10 march leaders for more than an hour, declared that the march had advanced the cause of the nation's 20 million Negroes and of all mankind. He said he could not help but be impressed with the "deep fer vor and the quiet dignity" of the gathering. He pledged to push Sanitary Authority Orders Sewer Pipeline Extension The Oregon state Sanitary Au- of a complaint by attorneys for (hority has advised the city of Mr. and Mrs. G. S. McCarthy, Roscburg it will be necessary for the city to extend its sewage treat ment plant outfall line into the main channel of the South Ump qua River in order to effect ade quate and immediate dilution of effluent. The authority said its finding stems from an investigation of the outfall undertaken following receipt Filing Of Tax Petitions Due SALEM (UPI)-Formal filing of petitions to refer the 1903 legis lature's $60 million tax increase measure to a special election Oct. IS is expected Friday afternoon or Saturday, J. Francyl Howard said, today. Deadline for filing is 5 p.m. Sunday. Opponents of the tax measure already have well over 30,000 val id signatures. A total of 23,185 signatures was needed. Jack Thompson, elections su pervisor, said if the petitions are filed Friday, the formal certifi cation of the measure to a special election by Secretary of State Howell Appling Jr. could take place Tuesday. Howard said he had more than 17,000 signatures in his possession, and thousands more with volun teer workers in 'other parts of the state. Multnomah Has Many In Multnomah County alone, IS, 062 petition signatures had been certified as valid by this morn' ing, and there were still several thousands more on hand, More than 21,000 signatures had been turned in to the Multnomah Coun ty clerk, and they were running about 88 per cent valid. Thompson said as soon as How ard files the petitions, his office win begin tabulating the certifi cation made by county clerks. "If our tabulation shows the re quired number of valid signatures has been filed, we will begin the formal procedure to certify the measure to the ballot," Thomp son said. He said he expected to have people in the office Monday, La bor Day, to speed up the process. Meanwhile, education groups, organized labor, management groups, legislators and state of ficials were mapping campaigns to try to salvage the tax meas ure from defeat by the voters. The McCarthys, who reside im mediately downstream from the treatment plant and withdraw wa ter from the river for the purpose of irrigation and swimming, have complained their river frontage is affected by a pollution condition. The Roseburg City Council, aft er being introduced to the situa tion this week, referred the mat ter to City Manager Craig Mc Micken for study. McMicken said today he has written to the state Sanitary Authority requesting op portunity to discuss the matter with them at the site. "Basically, the problem is that during the late summer and early fall months when the river is low, a lagoon that extends downstream to the McCarthy property is form ed below the sewage plant outfall line," Kenneth H. Spies, deputy state sanitary engineer, told the city. "Since the main river channel is beyond the end of the outfall pipe, this lagoon becomes composed primarily of sewage effluent. Bac teriological tests of this water con ducted by our own as well as an independent laboratory have shown that during the time in question the coliform count is well above that recommended for public swimming." The official also advised that the city should take all possible pre cautions at the sewage treatment plant to insure against the dis charge of unchlorinated or inade quately chlorinated sewage be tween May l and Nov. 1.

(UPI) The search for a jet fighter pilot who was seen to eject from his plane after a collision with a jet bomber early Wednesday con tinued today. Four Coast Guard patrol boats searched the area off the coast of Washington's Olympic Peninsula during the night and this morn ing aircraft were to rejoin the search for 1st Lt. Roger Axlund, Sioux Falls, S.D. A search for 1,800 square miles of the Pacific Ocean Wednesday turned up no trace of the oilot.

Predicts Other Marches The Rev. Fred L. Shuttles- worth, a Baptist preacher who was one of the leaders of the Birmingham, Ala., civil rights battle, said the march would in evitabiy lead to an outbreak of little Washingtons all over the country." "I shall propose a civil rights march through the South that will go straight into the Black Beit of Alabama and Mississippi this year and in 1964. We must pro vide 'little Washingtons' every where so that the Negro in the cotton field who can't get to Washington can have a chance to express himself," he said. Floyd McKissick, newly elected chairman of the board of the Congress For Racial Equal ity (CORE), described the march as "the end of the Negro protest and the beginning of the Ameri can protest." To 74-year-old Negro labor lead er A. Philip Randolph, tired and drawn from the weeks of plan ning for the march, it was "the greatest demonstration for free dom in the nation's history." Plan Early Meeting The morch leaders will meet in New York within the next 10 days to mop further plans. These will include possible continuous "counter-filibuster" demonstra tions in the capital should a southern talkathon threaten Pres ident Kennedy's civil rights leg islation when it comes tip for con gressional action later this year. Chief Murray estimated that about 10 per cent of the marchers were white; other esti mates by newsmen and other observers ranged as high as 30 per cent.
