A The Bulletin, Monday, October 21, 1963 Congressmen seek to pull out of lethargy which has marked current session WASHINGTON (UPI) - Con gress with only 10 weeks re maining in this session contin ued to search today for a way to pull itself out of its 10-month lethargy. Lawmakers, who normally adjourn by September, have been in session since January, and are beginning to wonder if they will have a vacation be fore the second session of the 88th Congress starts. Rumors of "understandings" by which either taxes or civil rights would be postponed until 1964 have circulated for weeks. So far, all have been denied by party leaders. The House now hopes to have its omnibus civil rights bill out of committee in about two weeks, and the Senate Finance Committee is proceeding with extended tax bill hearings. But predictions now are that neither measure will make it in the next ten weeks. With time Fire fighters y hoping for rains in Northeast By United Press International Hurricane and gales warnings were posted along the Carolina coast today and weary fire fighters hoped the season's lat est storm would send rain into the drought-stricken Northeast. More than Vk inches of rain fell at Cape Hatteras, where hurricane warnings were dis played, and lesser amounts fell inland. The weather bureau said Hur ricane Ginny would result in heavy seas along the coast and above normal tides. Heavy rains brought some relief to bone-dry parts of the great Plains Sunday, but the fire situation remained costly and critical from Maine through the Midwest. Oklahoma City, Okla., was drenched with 1.88 inches of rain . Sunday. Ponca City, Okla., received 1.12 inches in the state's first appreciable rainfall of the month. More than ?i of an inch fell at Cheyenne, Wyo., and three or four tornadoes were spotted in west central Kansas. The severe drought in the East continued to spark fires in tinder-dry forests and fields. Light winds fanned a fire which swept 70 acres of the Clark County State Forest near Henryville, Ind., Sunday. State forestry officials in Ohio said the dry spell was costing municipalities $250,000 a week to fight forest and grass fires. The state has been without rain fall for 39 days. A massive fire which has al ready charred 3.000 acres of timberland continued to burn out of control at Norvin Green State Forest near Bloomingdale, N.J. State fire officials said five to eight inches of rain was needed to end the threat of fire in New Jersey. Supersonic jet service seen PORTLAND (UPI)-A spokes man for Pan American World Airways said Friday that Port land probably will have super sonic jet airliner service by 1970. Pan Am already has regular Jet overseas service from t h e Portland International Airport. It has ordered six 1,500-mile-per-hour jets from Great Britain and France. BURNS OWN HOME SANTA CLARA, Calif. (UPI) Ralph M. Warnes. 41, said he was just trying to make a prop erty settlement of sorts when he tried to burn down his home Friday. He failed in an attempt to talk his wife out of her plans to sue him for divorce. So, po lice said, he piled clothes in the corner of a bedroom, doused them with paint thinner, and set them on fire. Firemen ex tinguished the blaze before se rious damage was done to the house. "If I can't live in it nobody can," he told unsympathetic police, who booked him on an arson charge. Mb out for Thanksgiving, Veterans Day and other events, the dwin dling session is viewed by many as holding too little time for final action on the tax bill. There also is some question whether civil rights legislation, even if the Senate gives it the go-ahead over taxes, could pass before the new year. Other congressional news: College Aid: A lengthy delay seemed likely for final congres sional passage of a bill to au thorize about $400 million a year in federal grants and loans for public and private non-profit colleges and universi ties, including those controlled by a religious group. Both the Senate and House passed the bill, but the Senate added a provision to allow any taxpayer to block, at least temporarily, the disbursement of funds to any college by filing a federal suit challenging its constitution ality. Civil Rights: The administra tion was under critical fire from strong Republican and Democratic civil rights support ers for seeking to dilute civil rights legislation in the House. Sens. Paul H. Douglas, D-Ill., Jacob K. Javits, R-N.Y., and Clifford P. Case, R-N.J., at tacked Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy's request of the House Judiciary Committee to tone down its civil rights bill. The committee's bill was much stronger than President Kenne dy's request. The three charged the administration was retreat ing, appeasing and playing into the hands of those who want no civil rights bill. Fresh troops sent into border area ALGIERS (UPI)-Comman-deered private planes flew three battalions of fresh Algerian troops Sunday to the disputed border area where the army is fighting a sporadic, undeclared border war with Morocco. , No fighting has been reported since Friday, but Algeria charged that Moroccan fighter planes crossed the border Sun day and forced an Algerian army helicopter to land In Mo rocco. (Moroccan authorities said five of the nine men aboard the helicopter forced down at the border hamlet of Ain Choucer were Egyptian officers. The nine wore civilian clothes, but at least one was armed with a submachine gun, the Moroccans said.) The reinforcements picked up Sunday at Maison Blanche Air port here were flown to Colomb Bechar, a forward post in the "combat zone" about 1,000-miles southwest of Algiers. The official Algerian Radio announced today that Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie is post poning a visit to France and will fly here today, four days ahead of schedule. There was speculation that Selassie might try to mediate the dispute. The fighting began two weeks ago, when Algerian troops oc cupied the border posts of Hassi Beida and Tinnjoub in territory claimed by both nations. Moroccan troops reoccupied the outposts a week ago today ("inflicting heavy losses and damage on the Algerians,") ac cording to the Moroccans, and they have been the focus of sporadic fighting since. Both sides currently claim po session of the posts, but the best information available indi cates they are in Moroccan hands.

Goldwater raps management of news by JFK SAN BERNARDINO. Calif. (UPI) Sen. Barry Goldwater, addressing a National Newspa per Week observance over the weekend, accused the Kennedy administration of endangering the nation's security through what he called "flagrant news management." The Arizona Republican is sued the accusation at a News paper Week meeting sponsored by the San Bernardino Sun Telegram. He specifically attacked the administration's handling of the announcements of four recent international developments the nuclear test ban treaty, the deal to sell surplus wheat to Russia, the United Nations res olution banning nuclear weap ons in outer space, and the Geneva disarmament plan. Terming the U.N. resolu tion "the most flagrant mis management of all because it made us close the door to the real military use of space," the potential GOP presidential can didate said U.S. agreement to any of the four events should never have been given without more bargaining to this nation s advantage. Goldwater said the American people would have demanded changes in all four of these in ternational developments had they known about them far enough in advance. But he said the announcements came too late for opposition to be mus tered. At a news conference earlier in the day, Goldwater said he has in the past advocated U.S. withdrawal from the United Na tions "I'd have to say that at best I'm lukewarm about the U.N. now." "If we're going to have an international debating society," said Goldwater, "then I believe we should make it the best one possible. I believe members should be required to pay their dues or get out." Bullets fired in home where Pope Paul born CONCESIO, Italy (UPI)-Po-lice blamed "Communists, van dals, or crackpots" today for shooting two bullets into the front door of the house where Pope Paul VI was born. They said they have no clues as yet to the identity of the per sons who fired the bullets early Sunday. Several signs pointing the way to the house also were hit by bullets. Only caretaker Giovanni Guerrini was In the house when the shots were fired. He usually is alone there, but the Pope's brothers Dr. Francesco Monti ni and Sen. Lodovico Montini, sometimes visit.

It is a dramatic demonstra tion of a new phase in U.S. de fense strategy that promises to permit reductions in both American forces and expendi tures overseas. Big Lift, which involves the movement of 16.000 troops from the United States to Germany within 72 hours, is expected to be followed next year by sim ilar exercises in the Pacific and Middle East. The significance of the airlift was pointed up by Deputy De fense Secretary Roswell L. Gil patric in a major policy speech Saturday night in Chicago at the annual conference of United Press International editors and publishers. Gilpatric said national de fense was entering the "new phase" when shifts could be made in overseas deployments without impairing military strength or support for U.S. Al lies. Project U.S. Power Calling attention to Operation Big Lift, he said the exercise "will demonstrate our ability to project our military power far more quickly over far larger distances than has ever been the case in the past." "By employing such a multi base capacity, the United States should be able to make useful reductions in its heavy over seas military expenditures," he declared. In a question session follow ing his speech Gilpatric took is sue with a magazine article by Radio group holds session Twenty members of the Cen tral Oregon Citizens' Band Ra dio Club attended a meeting of the group in Prineville Wednes day night, with search and res cue work discussed.

Maintain Large Force "For the foreseeable future," Gilpatric said in his speech. the U.S. will maintain both large overseas deployments and significant capabilities to rein force such military power with great rapidity. However, some shifts in the form our military presence has taken in recent decades are beginning to be practicable." The defense official said that the United States now has the ability to deliver largo quanti ties of logistical support abroad quickly by air and could send combat planes over oceans "in no more time than it took pre viously to deploy planes sta tioned on rear bases overseas. Gilpatric said that West Ger many shared with the United States a primary responsibility for the central tronl ot the Western alliance. In response to a question he said West Ger many could have 26 to 30 divi sions ready for action. The Ger mans now are close to their 12 division commitment. !oys of Today le eaciers o . . . . end THESE boys are a step ahead in preparing for tomorrow through the training received in newspaper route management.
