Need for GOP
Support on Civil
Rights Bill Hit
Washington - (UPD - House
, GOP Leader Charles A. Hal
leck today labeled as "politi--cal
baloney" Democratic sug
gestions that additional Re
publican support will be need
ed to force quick House action
-on the civil rights bill.
Halleck and Senate Repub
lican Leader Everett M. Dirk
sen served as spokesmen for
the Republican congressional
leaders following their first
"legislative meeting with Pres
ident Eisenhower for the cur
rent session of Congress.
No Dissuasion Attempted
. The civil rights fight in the
House came up in the White
House meeting. Halleck said
,,'Jater that while he personally
did not sign discharge peti
. tions, he was not attempting
. to dissuade or persuade any
Republicans in connec t i o n
with the petition.
"Trying to shift the respon
sibility to the Republicans is
.not going to stand up," Hal
leck told reporters.
. The civil rights bill is now
T stalled in the House Rules
; Committee. A key House GOP
member said today he doubted
"that northern Democrats
"would get enough GOP sup
.port to force action on it.
'Signatures Needed
c : The Democrats frankly ad-
rmit they need about 60 Re-
- publican signatures on a peti
tion to pry the bill out of the
'rules group and bring it to the
floor for action.
Halleck said he was sup
porting the civil rights bill as
reported by the House Judici
ary Committee in the last ses
sion. He said he thought it
was possible to bring the
"measure to the House floor in
the "regular manner" with
out proceeding through a dis
- charge petition for which "the
Democrats are seeking signa
tures. i A GOP source, who asked
"not to be identified by name,
: said it would be "difficult" to
:get 60 Republicans to sign a
'.discharge petition, even
I though some may favor the
bill.

Industrials Skid;
Rails Gain Support
New York - (UPD - Blue chip
industrials declined for the
fifth straight session, but rail
roads and utilities met some
support and tacked on frac
tions.
Tight money fears continued
to depress market sentiment,
and many traders took to the
sidelines pending further clar
ification of the situation.
The industrial average was
pulled down by losses of 3Vi
points in DuPont, 2 points in
International Paper, and near
ly a point in Chrysler.
There was a sprinkling of
fractional gains throughout
the industrial group.

Quirk Found in
State Boundary
Salem -(UPD- The boundary
between Oregon and Washing
ton which was redesignated
and adooted in 1958 has at
least one quirk worth look
ing into, the Oregon Comis
sion on Interstate Cooperation
has been told.
It seems that the new
boundary line cuts through
the powerhouse of John Day
dam, now under construction
on the Columbia river.
The Oregon Commission
was notified of this situation
by Oregon State Engineer
Lewis Stanley. .
The shifting channel of the
Columbia served as the old
boundary. The new line was
set up by using fixed points
and the powerhouse situation
has developed because the
Army engineers final site for
the dam was different from
two original alternate sites.
Freeman Holmer, Salem,
chairman of the Oregon Com
mission, said as far as he
knew the only problem re
garding the bisected power
house would be one of taxa
tion. Stanley was authorized
by the commission to "initiate
discussions" with Washington
state authorities on the matter.

Led Chinese Consul Accuses United States
if CCidnaping Diplomat in Defection Dncident
Bombay, India-fOPD - Com
munist Chinese Consul Gen
eral Chang Chi-ping today ac
cused the United States of
kidnaping a Chinese diplomat
in an incident that led to the
beating of an American Ma
rine last November.
Chang read a statement de
nouncing the U.S. for its part
in the apparent defection of
the diplomat. But he refused
to answer newsmen's ques
tions about Chinese treatment
of the American.
The statement said Chang
Chienyu, a staff member of
the Bombay Chinese Consu
late, "was kidnapped by mem
bers of the U.S. Consulate
General in Bombay" Nov. 26,
Said Held by Force
The Americans held Chang
in the cousulate by force "and
threatened to kill him if he
stuck to his refusal" to ap
ply for a "political asylum"
in the U.S., the statement
said.
The Communist version was
diametrically opposed to the
U.S. version of the incident.
According to the U.S. ver
sion, Marine Sgt. Robert Arm
strong, attached to the U.S.
Consulate in Bombay, was
dragged into the Chinese con
sulate by four Communists
and was beaten and threaten
ed when he attempted to re
cover a tape-recorded state
ment Chang made in volun

The Chinese said Chang obtain ."about procedure for the Chinese said, Chang got

Cuba Rejects dJ. S. (Protest
Against -Grab off InloDdnngs
Havana (UPD The Cuban
government Monday night re
jected a U.S. protest against
seizure of North American
holdings in Cuba: and said a
formal protest railed to deal
with "a basic situation" of
Cuba's new agrarian reform
laws.
A statement by acting For
eign Minister Marcelo Fer
nandez Font made it clear
Cuba would formally reject a
State Department note hand
ed over Monday to U.S. Am
bassador Phillip W. Bonsai.
However, Fernandez promised
to study the note further.
Fourth Protest Not
' In dealing with a similar
American protest last June a
spokesman first criticized the
Washington note and the revo
lutionary government later
rejected it officially. Mon
day's was the fourth U.S. pro
test note in a year.
U.S. insistence on cash pay
ment for Americans whose
property in Cuba is seized by
the Fidel Castro government
put a new strain on the al
ready cool U.S. -Cuba rela
tions, and Fernandez state
ment made 'it clear Cuba
would continue expropriating
property.
Position Reiieraled
"Upon receiving the U. S.
note we had the opportunity
to reiterate to his excellency

up the working of the agrar
ian reform, applying the same
measures of expropriation and
compensation both to national
and foreign citizens, submit
ting all doubtful cases to the
proper Cuban courts," the
Fernandez statement said.
Fernandez also criticized
the State Department for re
leasing the contents of the
note to the press and said this
"does not follow the estab
lished diplomatic usages."
Concerns Denial of Rights
The text of the stiffly word
ed U.S. note was not made
public, but the U.S. Embassy
said it concerned the "denial
of basic rights of ownership
to-U.S. citizens in Cuba -
rights provided under both
Cuban law and generally ac
c e p t e d international law."
This meant payment for prop
erty seized." -'
prevailing in the united
States and the efforts the
United States is exerting for
the cause of freedom."
The statement said the
Americans stopped him, took
him into another room and
threatened to kill him unless
he applied for political asyl
um.
Th Chinese statement said
Chang pretended to agree
and copied out a statement
dictated by the Americans-
applying for asylum and con
demning intelligence work
carried out by China in for
eign countries.
Apparently Changed Mind
American officials orevious-
ly had said - Chang went to
the consulate and applied for
asylum voluntarily.
Chang apparentlv had a
change of heart and took his
tape recorded statement to the
Chinese Communist Consulat
with him. Armstrong was
dragged into the Chinese
consulate from the street out
side it.
