"In response to many inquiries, I will not at this time make a statement with respect to either Presidential candidate, Byrd said. Byrd Indicated that before he makes up his mind he wants to see a "clarification of the views of both candidates on the many governmental issues which neither has yet discussed. Civil Klxhts Key Issue. One of the key issues Is expected to be civil rights. Some Southern leaders are reputedly still angry over Northern efforts to write a stiff civil rights plank into the Democratic platform at the Chi cago convention last week. The plank, as adopted, was con siderably watered down from the 1948 version which called for a compulsory Fair Employment Practices Commission with author ity to punish in cases of discrim ination in the hiring and firing of Negroes. Sen. Morse, (R-Ore) said the GOP plank 'on civil rights is "un acceptable and he praised the Democratic plank' on that contro versial issue as being "much stronger and clearer. Rnmblinrs in South However, some Dixie Democrats are reported none too happy over tne Democratic plank, and there nave been rumblings of a Southern "revolt" lavoring a switch to Gen, Eisenhower. " . In Washington. Federal Securitv Administrator Uscar Swing told newsmen that Stevenson's vice presidential running mate, Sen. John J. Sparkman of Alabama. 'sold the South' on a provision in the Democratic platform aimed at curbing the filibuster. - Ewing said the platform decla ration for a change in the Senate rules on limiting debate was tremendous step forward in the fight for civil rights and "a real achievement" for Sparkman. It takes a two thirds vote nqjv to cut off Senate debate. The platform urged changes to permit a ma jority to put its will into force after "reasonable debate. . Eisenhower Busy In the Republican camp. Gen. Eiserfhower huddled with his. top advisors In Denver and was urged to set up a program designed to rally 10 milion more voters than now are enrolled as Republicans to his support. He was also advised to court "the great middle ground" of American voters In his bid for the White House and to disregard "the extreme right and the extreme left. The advice came from Gov. Val Peterson of Nebraska. Eisenhower's running mate. Sen. Richard Nixon of California, told reporters the Democrats are of f ering the nation a candidate who Is captive to the CIO, the big city machines and President Truman. GOP Eyes South Republican chieftains in several quarters were beating the drums for a GOP break into the Demo cratic "Solid South" this year. Chairman Arthur Summerfield of the Republican national com mittee told newsmen in Columbus, Ohio, there, has been "amazing en thusiasm coming from the South ern states" for Eisenhower and he predicted a bumper GOP vote crop in Dixie. Sen. Morse said in a radio in terview he thinks the GOP may win Texas, Florida, North Caro Una and Virginia. : Stocks Reach 3rd New High; Rails Set Pace NEW YORK (n The stock market advanced new 1952 high with railroads setting the pace.

The race was so close four were jammed in at 67, four at 68 and 10 at 69. : Among the 67 shooters were two seasonal contenders, Johnny Palm er and Sam Snead. ' Frank Stranahan took charge of the amateur with 70 in his shot for a fifth straight Tam title.

Saucer Photo Goes to Air ' Force Brass SPOKANE A photograph of one of two saucer-like objects spotted in the Spokane area Wed nesday was turned over to Air Force officials. Thursday H. C. Fertig, who anapped the picture, said officials at Fairchild Air Force Base asked him to turn the negative over to them. Fertig said he took two pictures, one with a filter on his camera. and one without, and the object showed up only in the one taken with a filter. It showed up about the size of a match head a white spot on a dark background on a large print. he said. Capt. Patrick Cullen, Fairchild information officer, said the nega tives would be sent to the Stra tegic Air Command headquarters. Fertig, a resident of Liberty Lake, east of Spokane, said he and two friends watched the object as it remained almost stationary for about an hour. He estimated it was 20,000 feet up.' - When a scheduled airliner came along, it moved up and then settled down after the airliner passed, he said. Later, he said It disappeared in a northeast direc tion. i Fighter planes from Larson Air Base were sent up to investigate reports coming from a number of residents In the area, but there was no report that they found anything. Giraffes are readily tamed, but like the mule, can kick out vici ously, with their hooves. Giraffes can reach grass and water by awkwardly, spreading their forelegs. White's Lunch 1138 S.
