Negro Solon
Swings to Ike
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11 (-Rep.
Adam Powell Jr., Harlem's Demo
cratic congressman, announced to
day he will support President Ei
senhower for re-election because
he is pleased with Eisenhower's
attitude on civil rights.
The Negro House member, who
is also pastor of thei Abyssinian
Baptist church in New York, told
reporters at the White House he
feels , that Adlai Stevenson
"snubbed the whole liberal group
Republicans and Democrats" on
the civil rights issue this year.
Powell supported Stevenson in
1952. But now, he said, he intends
to form a national organization to
work for a second term for Eisen
hower. It won't be a Negro move
ment, he added, but "an organ
ization of independent Democrats
for Elsenhower."

Then the doctors began a jerk

took up, movement by movement.

44 Killed Before Fighting
Eases in Hong Kong Area
By JOHN RODERICK
HONG KONG, Friday, Oct. 12 (AP)-Hand-to-hand battl
ing between Communist and anti-Communist Chinese killed
30 workers in the Hong Kong mainland factory village of Tsun
Wan, the government announced today.
Acting Gov. L. B. David announced a total of 44 persons
had been killed in two days of frenzizeil fighting between
Chinese mobs and between Chinese ; - -
and police. Before British artil
lerymen discovered bodies of the
Tsun Wan victims, police report
ed 14 dead.
The fighting and looting abated
today under a tight curfew im
posed on the riot-torn Kowloon
peninsula.
To Stay Indoors
All residents were ordered to re
main indoors from 7:30 last night
to 10 o'clock this morning. Cruis
ing patrols encountered only small
knots of stragglers and dispersed
them without gunfire.
The riots sent about 145 persons
to hospitals and countless hun
dreds were treated for minor
wounds.
The spark that set off the rioting
a dispute over pasting red and
blue Nationalist Chinese flags on
walls of a government resettle
ment housing project has been
all but forgotten since the fighting
began Wednesday. Subsequent bat
tling went far afield from this sim

Travel Gets
New Meaning
For Teachers
; By THOMAS G. WRIGHT JR.
Staff Writer. The Statesman
A trip to Bermuda or Acapulco
took on new meaning Thursday
night for Salem'l public school
teachers after the Salem School
Board decided they could travel
part of the way toward meeting
education requirements by travel
ing. The board voted to recognize the
broadening value of travel for
classroom teachers, amending in-
service regulations to give teach
ers up to six term hours of study
credit for approved travel in the
US, and foreign countries.
Detailed Route
The credit, however, won't be
simply t bonus-for teacher vaca
tions in .far away place! with
strange sounding names. They'll
have to submit a detailed itinerary!
indicating mo eaucauonai vaiue,
and complete t report or project
within three months after return
In order to qualify.
Under the plan, recommended
by Supt. Charles D. Schmidt and
the economic welfare committee of
Salem .ClassroomTeachers Asso
ciation, teachers could tarn 45
points for a week of approved for'
eign travel or two weeks of ap
proved U.S. travel. They could ac
cumulate 360 points, or credit for
six term hours during a ten-year
period providing no more than 180
points were, for travel inside the
48 states.
Study Required
Salem school regulations now re
quire teachers to complete nine
term hours of study in each five-
year period and must at least have
uii nuuis ui cummer ouuuui wuik,
pick up three more hours through
extension work and complete the
10-year study requirements through
travel.

Against Israel
JERUSALEM, Oct. 11 (AP)
-A reprisal attack against Is
rael bv Jordan was feared to
night, in the wake of a seven
hour border battle that left a
Jordan police station in ruins.
Bv official count of both sides
59 were killed and 25 wounded In
the artillery and hand-to-hand
clash before a U.N. cease-fire de
mand ended the firing at S a.m.
A U.N. truce organization an
nouncement put the number of
Jordanian dead at 48. Other re
ports said as many as 160 were
killed.
Young King Hussein of Jordan
rushed to the scene and personal
ly directed his troops in the fight'
ing in the Judean hills. With un
rest mounting in his small king
dom, there was speculation in
Arab capitals that Hussein might
launch retaliatory raids in an ei
fort to strengthen his position,
Hussein sent out fresh appeals
for military" help. He talked 'sev
eral times by telephone with Leb
anese President Camille Cha
moun. Jordan faces a critical (lec
tion in 11 days. Adding to the un
rest in his country, Jordan army
officers are openly grumbling that
Hussein's military preparations
are inadequate.
