Main Issues in Civil Rights Bill Are Summarized Washington iin Summary of main issues in the Senate de bate on civil rights: Purpose of Bill To protect the civil rights of persons within the jurisdiction of the United States. Propon ents contend its primary- pur pose is to protect voting rights of Negroes in the South. Oppon ents claim its language is broad enough to permit use of troops to enforce racial integration in schools and other public places. Basis for Fight Supporters contend the legis lation is necessary for protection of constitutional rights of all Americans regardless of race. Opponents contend it gives the federal government, in the per son of the attorney general, "au tocratic" powers to enforce civil rights as he sees fit and break down the southern social system based on separation of races. Jury Trial The bill would empower the attorney general, through civil law procedure, to obtain federal court injunctions against viola tions or anticipated violations of civil rights. Persons disregard ing such injunctions would be liable to a fine and jail sentence by a federal judge without a trial. Opponents contend this would be perverting the civil laws to deprive persons of their constitutional right of jury trial Pancake Breakfast Scheduled at CP Central Point The Central Point Lions' club will hold their annual pancake breakfast Sat urday, July 13, according to the club's president, Don Faber Jr. The breakfast, to which the public has been invited, will be served from 6:30 a.m. until noon at the stand located in the lot next to Faber's Super Mar ket in Central Point.

W A sus penseful wait began today for Nathan Leopold, 52, seeking his freedom on grounds he is a humble convict who has atoned for the 1924 thrill slaying of little Bobby Franks. Leopold, who has been in Stateville prison . for, 33 years, appealed Tuesday to the Illinois Parole and Pardon Board for commutation of his 85-year term. Gov. William G. Stratton is ex pected to rule on the appeal "in about 30 days." Post Supports Plea Among those supporting Leo pold's plea were poet Carl Sand beg, mystery author Erie Stan ley Gardner, novelist Meyer Levin, and several of Leopold's former University of Chicago classmates. No one appeared to oppose Leopold's freedom bid. Leopold did not attend the clemency hearing, but in a writ ten appeal asked to be allowed Teamsters Reschedule Executive Meeting Washington (LP) The Inter national Brotherhood of Team sters today rescheduled its Exe cutive Board meeting in Los An geles for Monday, Aug. 5. The meeting is expected to take up a demand for the resig nation of Presidpnt Dave Beck, who is under fire for his han dling of union finances. The session twice had been postponed because two vice presidents, James R. Hoffa and Frank W. Brewster, were un able to attend. Hoffa is on trial for bribery and conspiracy charges growing out of the Senate Rackets Com mittee investigation. Brewster is recovering from injuries re ceived in a fall from his horse. Beck said it is important that all board members attend since the meeting probably will be the last held before the teamsters' annual convention in Miami Beach, Fla., Sept. 30. 'in Hio nufciHo nf nrienn wallc "I earnestly beg of you to show me the mercy I did not show," his petition read. Remaining Years "I beg of you to permit me to spend my few remaining years in the free world and give me a chance to try to be useful and to justify my experience. I leave my fate in your hands and in the hands-of God.". A former classmate, Abel M. Brown, now a Chicago real estate man, told the board: "As a lonely kid, he (Leopold) (fell into a pit as black as life can make it. He's crying out now at the very end of his life for help. If you don't help him, you'll cut out his heart. He'll rot and die in prison." Leopold and his partner' in in crime, Richard Loeb, mur dered the 14-year-old Franks boy .in a thrill killing that shocked the nation. Leopold was sentenced to 99 years, but for mer Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson reduced the sentence to 85 years in recognition of Leo pold's service in malaria experi ments. Loeb died in a prison fight in 1936. The parole board previously turned down three parole bids by Leopold and set 1965 as the next time he could apply for parole. Sick Man However, Leopold said he feared "I won't live that long." He has had two heart attacks and suffers from diabetes and a kidney infection. Leopold, a brilliant student at the University of Chicago, denied he was a genius in his pe tition and charged that errone ous newspaper stories were re sponsible for keeping him be hind bars. "I am a genius only in news papers," he said. "Actually, I am a fat, middle-aged thorough ly ordinary man. I can't lick Russia single-handed, as some newspapers would have you be lieve. I can't contribute anything in nuclear physics. "It is unfair to deal with me as a symbol instead of as an individual." Dentist to Open Rogue River Office Rogue River Dr. Richard J.
