The following is his analysis ff the present deadlock and his pre dictions of what may happen next. By LOUIS CASSELS United Press Correspondent Little Rock, Ark. OP The real issue in Little Rock is not ; the admission of nine Negro stu- dents to Central High School. It is whether, when and how all of the public schools of the South shall be integrated. Both sides know that this has become a test case which will set a precedent of far-reaching importance. The reason why 7 f 1 si & am. 4" y -w PUTTING FINAL TOUCHES on American satellite to be launched next spring is Edwin Brady of U. S. Naval Re search Laboratory. Launching site is Cape Canaveral, Fla.

(International Soundphoto) Calling Hawaii From Area Now Is Quicker, Cheaper, PT6T Says Callinz Hawaii from Medford cill be quicker and cheaper now qti'iat the new submarine tele phone cable between the United States and Hawaii is in service. The 2,500-mile underwater table system, costing $37,000, SO0, was placed in service at qjiidnight Tuesday, October 8, ac wirding to Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company manager gack Creager. Now that the cable system is working, telephone operators will be able to place long dis tance calls directly to telephones in Hawaii without the help of an overseas operator in Oak land, Calif. Rates Reduced At the same time the station-to-station daytime rate on such calls has been reduced from S7.50 to 56 plus tax for the first three minutes. The rate for station-to-station calls at night and on Sundays and holidays has also been lowered from S6 to $5.25 plus tax for the first three minutes, Creager said. In placing the calls to Hawaii, telephone operators will follow the practice now in force for most long distance calls in the United States. When "the opera tor has the number of the tele phone being called in Hawaii she will dial a three-digit code in this case it is 808 and then the number being called. Over special circuits, the call will go to Pt. Arena, Calif., where the mainland terminus of the submarine cable is located, nd then via the cable to the island of Oahu. Ninety-five per cent of Hawaii's telephones are located there. Hawaiian telephone operators fcill be able to dial calls from the island to about 6,500 com munities on the mainland, Crea ger noted Cooperating in System Cooperating in establishment of the underwater cable system were American Telephone and Telegraph, the Hawaiian Tele phone company and the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph com pany. It was a venture that re quired three years of planning and construction. Two 2,400-mile long lengths of cable, were laid along the bottom of the Pacific ocean be tween the island and the main land. The cable system is cap able of carrying 36 simultan eous conversations. The cables are similar to those used in khe Alaska and Atlantic systems. They are of the coaxial type, especially de signed to withstand the tremen dous pressures of the ocean bot tom. Sturdy flexible repeaters are built into the cables about every 40 miles to boost the strength 'of signals when they reach the fading point along their deep-sea course. The Hawaiian cable system will augment the 14 radio-telephone circuits that have been in use previously for long distance calls between the mainland and Hawaii, Creager said. Resemblance To HST Costs Punch Grand Haven, Mich. API Pharmacist John Poest took it on the chin Wednesday because he resembles former President Truman. Poest said he was ' flagged down by a motorist who looked St him closely and asked, "You're Harry Truman, aren't you?" "Yes," replied Poest as he stuck out his hand, 'and how is the Democratic Party out your way." The motorist answered with a punch in the nose. Pcesl quickly rolled up the car window. But the motorist kept pounding on the door and windows until Poest drove off. Poest reported the incident to the Ottawa county sheriff's of fice and Pascal Catron, 36, an itinerant farmer from Cincin nati, was arrested a short time later. Sheriff Gerald Vanderbeek said he was holding Catron for a mental examination. No Laughter Seen On Trip To Russia Washington 0PI Mrs. El eanor Roosevelt told an Ameri can women's "Congress on Bet ter Living" Wednesday night that during three weeks in Rus sia she never saw anyone laugh. "I have a feeling the Russians have sold their souls for a little economic security," she said. Mrs. Roosevelt also said she "never saw a well dressed man or woman" during her tour. The Soviet people, she said, "have no idea what the rest of the world is like." They consider it normal for a family of three to live in one room, for five families to cook in one kitchen and for 18 per sons to share a bathroom, she said. Mrs. Roosevelt renewed her suggestion that the administra tion admit more Russians to the United States. She expressed doubt that the Russian govern ment would allow many of its people to visit America, and said the U. S. could gain a propagan da advantage through offering to allow more Russian visitors. Southern Schools Real Issue at Stake Little Oregon State College Will Study Raindrops Corvallis HP) Oregon State college metrologists anticipate no lack of raw material this win ter when they start studies into the shape of raindrops. The scientists said they have equipped a special trailer and have obtained a unique camera designed specifically to take pic tures of raindrops. THE HIGH PROTEIN PET FOOD President Eisenhower and Gov. Orval E. Faubus can't agree on terms for withdrawing federal troops is that they have exactly opposite ideas of what the prece dent should be. Eisenhower believes Little Rock must demonstrate the readiness of the United States Government to use whatever force may be necessary to pre vent violence from blocking the final decrees of a federal court. Faubus believes the nation will learn from Little Rock that the "forcible integration" of a southern school can be accom plished only by sending federal troops to the scene and keeping them there for a very long time. He thinks the White House will find it impractical to pay this price. Faubus Waiting That is why Faubus is playing a waiting game, making no move to renew negotiations with Eisenhower for troop with drawal. He is convinced that time is on his side, and that federal authority cannot claim a victory in Little Rock unless or until Eisenhower finds a way to get the troops out of this city. Eisenhower reelizes, after two abortive attempts to negotiate with the governor, that Faubus has no intention of giving one pledge that would permit the eariy wiinarawai oi ieaerai forces. That pledge would be to use the National Guard, when it is returned to state control, to pro tect the nine Negro youths from any violence as they attend classes as Central High. Counting on Moderation The President now is counting on the forces of moderation, now being mobilized in Little Rock by church, business and civic leaders. He is hopeful that their efforts, including a city-w i d e prayer service to be held next Saturday, will create a climate in which local authorities, backed up by the majority of law-abiding citizens, can cope with any threat of violence. Once Washington is persuaded that moderates are in control of the situation, the paratroopers of -the 101st Airborne Division may be sent back to Fort Camp bell, Ky. The Arkansas National Guard could be held under federal control for a while after the paratroopers leave with some of its units mobilized at nearby Camp Robinson on quick call. FBI 'Army' The departure of troops from Central High would not mean that the federal government was pulling down its guard entirely. There is another army in Little Rock a multi-clad army of FBI agents, possibly the largest group of them ever assembled for an assignment of this kind. They will keep a cfose watch on Central High school long after the troops are gone. If trouble develops, the gov ernment will move swiftly in the federal courts to obtain in junctions against the mob leaders. Anyone who violated such an injunction could be arrested and imprisoned for criminal con tempt. A federal judge can try a criminal contempt case very quickly; no jury is necessary. This is Washington's present strategy, according to compe tent sources here. Like all strategy, it may be upset by what the other side does. Its most vulnerable point would appear to be the assump tion that Little Rock's moder ates, belatedly organized, will be able to clamp the lid on the pandora's box of racial passion, which as been opened here.
