Portland Houseboat , Owners Must Move Portland (U.R) Houseboat owners at Aviation moorage near Swan Island in the Willamette river must move within 20 days or face contempt of court pro ceedings. Circuit Judge James W. Craw ford said yesterday the port of Portland could file the contempt citations if the houseboats were not gone in 20 days. The state Supreme Court had ordered the moorage evacuated last March despite protests from a dozen residents after the Port of Portland declared them a men ace to navigation. lations with the key area on RuS' sia's southern flank. The White House, in announc ing the mission Tuesday, said Nixon is making the trip at the request of President Eisenhower and Secretary of State John Fos ter Dulles. The 42-year-old Cal if ornian previously has made highly successful goodwill mis sions to the Far East and Carib bean areas. The announcement said the vice-president will visit the re gion "to become acquainted with the leaders of the countries in the area ... to hear their views and to convey the sincere greetings of the people of the United States to the peoples of i the area." j Nixon will be accompanied by his wife, Pat, and representatives of the State Department. The State Department will work out details of the trip with countries involved. It said Nix on's itinerary has not been fixed but that the timetable will de pend upon how much time the vice president can devote to the trip and the political situation in the area Nixon may spend up to a month on the journey. It was believed certain that he will visit both Egypt and Is rael. If so, he will probably make a strong plea to both. Israeli and Arab leaders for a final end to their long dispute. The United States has long felt the Arab Israeli controversy is a major problem barring the region from realizing its full potential. Nixon probably will touch on problems of the other nations he visits. If he stops at Algeria and Morocco, officials said, he prob ably will discuss troubles that have led to recent violent rioting. But officials said the Nixon trip is primarily aimed at win ning goodwill for the United States, not solving problems of the area. The United States has long , considered the region of vital importance because of its position on Russia's southern borders. Wednesday, August 24, 1955 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THRE Mississippi Elects Governor Opposed To Segregation Law Jackson, Miss. (U.R) Crusad ing Atty. Gen. J.. P. Coleman swept to victory today in a Dem ocratic runoff primary for gov ernor in which, party officials systematically discouraged Ne gro votes. Coleman,- pledging strict en forcement of Mississippi's segre gation and anti-liquor, soundly defeated young attorney Paul B. Johnson Jr. after a campaign of bitter name calling. Opponent Concedes Johnson, making his third try for the job, conceded defeat just before midnight when Coleman's lead, steadily fattened since early returns, mounted toward the 50,000 vote mark. Returns from 1,687 of the state's 1,828 precincts gave Cole man 205,362 votes to Johnson's 154,456. Both candidates ignored the racial issue, on which their stands were identical, and party officials sought to ignore the Negro voters by turning them away from the polls or earmark ing the few ballots cast for chal lenge. Chairman Tom J. Tubb of the state Democratic Executive Committee announced in ad vance that the "order went out" to county committees to chal lenge the Negroes' standing as actual party members. Few tried to vote. The New York headquarters of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People said it would' seek "prompt and immediate action" by the Justice Department. But in numerous counties across the state not a Negro showed, up to vote, and the few ballots ca,st would have little effect on the outcome. Coleman's victory is tanta mount to election. The forthcom ing a general election will be only a formality. Gov. Hugh White, prevented by law from succeeding himself, called the outcome a "clear indi cation that the people of Missis sippi like clean-cut politics," Water Lines Set For Phoenix High Phoenix Water mains from Charlotte Anne water district will be extended to Phoenix High school to provide a new water supply for school opening Sept. 17.
