Home Expected To Reject Amendment Washington 1 House Re pi.hJican Leader Joseph W. Mar tin Jr., said Saturday he is cer tain the house will reject an all out drive by Southerners to at tach a jury trial amendment to the Civil Rights bill. He based his prediction on talks with members and on early fragmentary returns from a poll of Republican members on the issue. Rep. Edwin E. Willis. (D-La.). one of the Southern leaders, said ha is confident the administration-opposed amendment will draw enough support from Northerners to be adopted. I am confident the amend ment would have been adopted if the vote were taken today or yesterday," Willis told he Unit ed Press. "And 1 don't expect a change in sentiment." The conflicting forecasts cams as tbe house girded for a fight vr th issue. Southerners gen fliT. conceded the chamber will pa th bill but they also hope to rvitrnp it.

Navy Crash Trucks Prevent Tragedy Xoxfdlk, Va An Eastern sir liner with 74 persons aboard and one engine aflame made a pre-dawn emergency landing on s Navy strip Saturday escorted b crsh trucks which raced alongside ths taxiing plane and q Spewed foam on the fire. "Thanks to the Navy it was a routine landing," said Capt. E. Q. Ford, pilot of the four engined DC7B. "The Navy's quick action was the main rea son we had no trouble. We got down from 19.000 feet in five minutes and our only injury was some woman who turned her ankle while stepping out of the plane." "There was absolutely no panic." Ford said. "We had all 68 passengers and six crew members out of the plane with in four minutes after we landed." The big passenger plane was on a flightlfrom Miami to Bos ton with the first stop slated for Newark. N.J.. when fire broke out in the engine as the plane was passing over Norfolk. Ford reported the trouble to the CAA and was advised to land at ;he Naval air station instead nf the Municipal airport because the Navy was better equipped to handle the fire. Urban Real Estate Fids Said Lacking New York IP Architectural Forum magazine said today the lack of basic economic statistics in building and real estate is critical. The magazine noted that more facts are known, literally, about a siheIp aericu'.tural product, peanuts, than about urban real estate. Although construction makes up about 15 per cent of gross national product, and while ur ban real estate accounts for more than half of all estimated reproducable wealth. Forum said, "most of the decisions in the fields are marie in semi darkness as far as facts go."

It leaders have avoided direct expression of this aim in words. But they have hinted at it re peatedly. Prime Minister Nobuske Kishi indicated this last Wednesday, the day after he returned to Tokyo from a quick tour of six Asian countries the first made by any Japanese premier to at least four of the nations either before or after the war. "I have formed an idea of the thinking of Asia's leaders," Kishi told a news conference. "What we discussed will con tribute, I believe, to my talks with American leaders in the United States this moith." Do Countries Like It? Whether the other countries of Asia like this development is another question. Some, like the Philippines and Burma, are still deeply suspicious of Japa nese motives, fearing a revival of world war militarism. Others, like the Republic of Korea, are openly hostile. Still others, like Thailand, Ceylon Smooth Classic Smart fashions any season! The shirtwaist dress is an ideal "go everywhere" style, that adapts beautifully to all fabrics.

Economically the turning point was the Korean war with its military orders which inject ed fresh blood into Japan's strug gling industries. Politically, it was Japan's admittance into the United Nations last year after lo-ij years of waiting. Last year Japan ranked first in the world in shipbuilding. Its volume of trade was the biggest in history with S2.47 billion in imports and S2.402 billion in imports. Even with an unfavor able invisible trade balance, $5i5 million in American mili tary orders left Japan with a plus balance of S293 million in foreign exchange earnings for the year. line Harding presiding.

HAMLIN MOTOR COMPANY Eighth and Front Streets Medford E. Stassen concluded week end conferences here and prepared to fly back to London, where he will lay the American "limited" arms reduction plan before Rus sia. Britain. France and Canada. Dulles told the committee that Russian leaders hae constantly propagandized the world about peace and disarmament. He said the U.S. can never for get that international Commun ism has seized by force or the threat of force nearly 20 nations with populations of about 900 million people. He said these na tions were seized before creation of the free world's mutual se curity and defense system. He said Russia's record ."shows what folly it would be for us to agree to dismantle our common defense system in reliance on un supervised Soviet promises. Equal Folly "It would be equal folly to dis mantle that system by our own action and ourselves wreck or weaken the collective defenses which provide a proved deterrent against aggression at the least cost." In riefenriinff F.isenhower's re quest to Congress for 53.800,000.- 000 for foreign military and economic aid, Dulles said that these programs allowed the U.S. to build its defense against Communist aggression more cheaply than if this country stood alone. Scientists Seeking Vaccine for Flu Washington W The pub lie health service was to tackle "oriental flu" today. A spokesman for the service said scientists will meet in Wash ington to discuss plans for the development of a vaccine against the new kind of influenza which has killed hundreds in the ori ent. He said American drug firms are convinced they can develop the vaccine within two to three months. In San Francisco, army tech nicians are studying blood sam ples from 10 victims of "oriental flu." The 10 were passengers aboard the SS President Cleve land which docked yesterday. Ninety -six passengers and crewmen came down with flu during the voyage, but by the time the ship docked, all but four had recovered. A public health official said the flu lasts about five days and usually is accompanied by a 100 to 101-degree temperature fever. TERMITES IH SCHOOL Herrin, 111.

Now they're back again. An exterminating compa ny has been hired this time. WHY THE BIG RaiGixnnf gb-sryslepi Most glamorous car In a generation 5 WORKING at microscope, Rose R. Ichelson, Philadel phia researcher, is credited with making important dis covery in war on multiple sclerosis. (International) 900 Degre es Said Possible Humanly San Francisco IP1 A human being can stand a tem perature of 900 degrees fahren heit for a brief period before collapsing, a University of Wash ington scientist reported today. The scientist, Konrad Buett- ner, reported on the effect of high temperatures on human per formance in a paper delivered to the semi-annual meeting of the American Society of Mechanical engineers. Buettner's figures indicated that under specific conditions, a man "covered with one centi meter of clothing might remain as long as a minute and a half in air at 900 degrees fahrenheit without collapse." "Without protective clothing, he might survive a 300-degree temperature for the same pe riod," Buettner said. The question of heat tolerance is 01 vital importance to engi neers designing aircraft travel ing at supersonic speeds since the aircraft are liable to become heated by friction of the air. Billy Graham Would Preach in Russia New York API Evangelist Billy Graham has challenged So viet leaders to permit him to car ry his "Crusade for Christ" throughout Russia. Given the opportunity to preach unrestricted, Graham said, he could win more converts to Christianity in Russia than in any other country he has visited during his seven-year-old cru sade. But the 38-year-old evangelist said he would go to Russia only if he could have complete free dom of movement and was able to preach wherever he desired. Graham said he was convinced that "the greatest religious re vival in history would take place in the Soviet Union." SWITCH Styling leadership that will be new for years! Record sales prove it!
