Civil Rights Foes Planning Assault Washington (U.PJ South em opponents of the adminis tration'! oivil rights bill planned a bitter assault on the measure today but glumly conceded it will win rules committee ap proval. Th committee will Tote on the measure this afternoon aft er hearing opposing arguments. Rep. E. L. Forrester (D-Ga.), promised he would take off the gloves" in discussing the bill today. Other Southern House members planned to do like wise. Although backers confident ly expect the committee to clear the politically potent anti discrimination measure for a House vote, its fate in the Sen ate is another matter. The bill would face a certain Southern fillibuster there. It would create a bi-partisan commission to investigate alle gations of civil rights violations; set up a new civil rights division in the Justice department, and strengthen present laws against discrimination in voting.

Summer Official; Heat Vave Burns Eastern States By UNITED PRESS Summer made its official ar rival today, but it had already worn out its welcome in much of the nation. A marathon heat wave burn ed throug'i its second week in much of the country east of the continental divide. The fore cast 'was for more hot, humid weather on the first day of sum mer. Millions of Americans, sub jected to a succession of cold and heat waves, wondered what ever happened to spring. Sun Heading South Summer checked in officially at 2:24 a.m. (PST), the moment the sun reaches its northern most point over the northern hemisphere and heads south again. Summer storms broke the midlands heat in some areas, but they brought scant and tem porary relief. A weak cold front pushed its way down through Wisconsin towards northern Illinois, set ting off damaging thunder storms Wednesday night. Water was reported standing in the streets at Fond Du Lac, Wis., and trees and power lines were down. Trees Uprooted Trees were ripped up by their roots at El Dorado, Wis., and Milwaukee and Ripon were also hard hit. Elsewhere, the temperature travelled to 101 at Miles City, Mont., Wednesday and there were 100-degree readings from the Southwest Desert northward into Kansas. Farther east, tem peratures averaged in the high 80s, but the humidity made it feel worse. In contrast, a chilly rain fell on New York City. It was 50 degrees at Grand Marais, Mich., and an un-summery 27 at Eagle, Colo. A basking shark caught in California waters measured 30 feet long and scaled 8.600 pounds, the weight of 45 hefty men.

(International) Guardsmen May Bury San Francisco Dead If Strike Continues San Francisco (U.PJ The National Guard may be called out to bury the dead in San Francisco as a result of a six-week-old strike lockout affect ing 11 cemeteries and five cre matoriums. This possibility was hinted at Wednesday in a meeting be tween Mayor George Christo pher, City Health Director Ellis Sox and City Attorney Dion Holm. Christopher called the meet ing as the unburied dead pass ed the 500 mark. Health Direc tor Sox told the mayor that within a week all appropriate storage space for the unburied dead may be filled. Stats of Emergency In that case, City Attorney Holm said the mayor might de clare a state of emergency if Sox feels a health problem has arisen. Since two counties are in volved. Holm said, the mayor may ask the governor to call out the National Guard to bury the dead. The cemeteries and cremator iums involved are located across the San Francisco line in San Mateo county. No burials or cre mations are allowed in San Francisco. Ellis told the mayor there is as yet no health hazard. After the meeting, Christo pher issued a plea to both sides to "meet regularly and around the clock." "We wish to point out that this situation is urgent in view of the fact that even if the strike is settled today, it will, require approximately one month thereafter to catch up with the backlog of burials," he said. Employer Offer Rejected Meanwhile, negotiators for the Cemetery Workers Union and the Associated Cemeteries met for four hours Wednesday without reaching agreement. The Union rejected an employer offer for a 30-cent hourly wage welfare increase in a three-year contract. The union's original demand was for a 15-cent increase in a one-year contract. Its negotia tors say they are willing to con sider a two-year contract. Another meeting was sched uled for today, but an employer spokesman was gloomy about the chances for settlement.
