Johnson Feeling South Backlash Washington-OJPD-As a pros pective presidential candidate Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson is feeling a backlash from the South for his efforts to get Senate ac tion on a civil rights bill. Assessments by Southern Democratic senators reflect a belief that Johnson has dam aged himself at least tempo rarily with his Southern base of political support. They are disinclined yet, however, to conclude that the damage is permanent or that Johnson al ready has forfeited substan tial support from the South. 5 The consensus appears to be that it is still too early to tell how the long struggle over civil rights legislation will affect the Texan's politi cal future. . However unhappy or angry they may be, some of the Southerners are saying pri vately that Johnson is still their choice for the Democra tic nomination. None of the Southern sena tors has made any personal attacks on Johnson so far, al though there have been veil ed complaints about "tyran ny" on the part of the "lead ership." The cave-salamander, con fined to Sardinia and the mountains around the Gulf of Genoa, feeds on spiders and insects but will die if it swal lows an ant.

Wall Street Chatter New York - (UPD - There are many bright lights in the eco nomical picture to buoy busi ness sentiment for the balance of 1960, notes Bruns, Norde man & Co. For instance, present high levels of personal income un doubtedly will be transplant ed into heavier durable goods demand later in the year, the firm points out. Also, the steel industry, which now claims to operate profitably at decidedly low levels of capacity than a few years ago, may well be able to boost its efficiency even further, while the auto indus try could regain its sales zest with seasonal demand later on, it adds. "Present goodwill tours by the leaders of both East and West could result in ' a new round of peaceful co-existence or tighten up strained inter national relations." Weldon A. Grimm of Wal ston & Co. lists four "great" speculations: Polaroid, Far rington, Fairchild Camera and Itek. Bache & Co. notes that Sieg ler has begun to show signs of reversing the downward pattern in which it has held during the past two months.

Landing Aid Improvements Suggested for Busier Airports Washington -(UPD- Sen. A.

He disclosed his subcommit tee will concentrate its air safety recommendations i n this area of split-second decis ion how best to help pilots get safely to the ground through high-density traffic. Death Toll Reaches 233 His comments came while two foreign crashes captured global attention. They raised the death toll of major 1960 air disasters to at least 233. The collision of a big U.S. Navy plane and a Brazilian airliner Thursday at Rio de Janeiro killed 61. At least 27 were killed at last count the same day when an Italian air Apalachin Meeting Claimed Warning to Narcotics Peddlers New York -(UPD- A federal narcotics official says that the major business of the Apala chin, N. Y., gangland meet ing in November, 1957, was a warning to all members to get out of the narcotics racket. Charles Siragusa, a field su pervisor for the federal nar cotics bureau, said the mob sters were warned that viola tion of the warning would mean execution. "T his was subsequently manifested by the murders of a few top ranking gangsters who chose to violate the edict," Siragusa said. . First Disclosure The disclosure of what went on at Apalachin was believed to be the first from official government sources, which heretofore had maintained that the nature of the get-together was a mystery. The gangland meeting oc curred at the hilltop mansion of the late Joseph Barbara Sr. More than 60 hoodlums and their associates were rounded up by New York state police. Nearly all told investigators later that they had merely dropped in to inquire about the health of Barbara, who was suffering from a heart ailment.

DIGNIFIED TITLE Milwaukee, Wis. - (UPD-The friendly barkeep in the cor ner pub will henceforth be called a "beverage host" if the Wisconsin Restaurant Associa tion has its way. Announcing a four-day training institute for Tjeverage hosts" in April, the institute said the new title has more dignity. George Washington record ed in his diary the agricul tural and other inventions for which he is credited. Monday, Feb. 29. 1960 liner crashed and exploded after takeoff at Shannon, Ire land. Monroney told United Press International his subcommit tee will urge federal action for: - Installation of high-intensity approach lighting, run ning 2,000 feet beyond run ways, at more heavily-used airports. He said only four airports have this system on more than one runway - Idle wild, Newark, Los Angeles and O'Hara field in Chicago. More Radar Network - More approach radar net works under the direction of federal aviation agency con trol tower personnel. - Long-range weather bu reau radar to facilitate . im proved forecasting of storms and onrushing weather dis turbances that endanger air liners. - Mandatory installation of flight recorders in all airlin ers. These tape recording de vices, which atuomatically re cord up to 34 separate items "will never become known to law enforcement officers." He pointed out that the 21 Apalachin hoodlums recently convicted in New York fed eral court were found guilty of conspiring to keep the na ture of the meeting secret. Blamed on Crackdown Siragusa said federal under cover agents who had pene trated the underworld learned that because of a successful, stepped-up crackdown on the narcotics trade, "the crime syndicate elders had promul gated an edict for all mem bers to cease and desist from trafficking in narcotics." But Siragusa said "younger elements ignored the edict" because of the fantastic prof its from the racket. This defi ance "received priority" at Apalachin and the ban was restated, as well as the warn ing that the reprisal for vio lators "would be by violence," Siragusa said. Dispute for Power Subsequently, Siragusa said, a number of top gang sters were murdered for ig noring the ban. He did not name them. Other topics discussed at Apalachin, Siragusa said, in cluded the taking over of gambling in Nevada; the Cu ban gambling operation; ana "a dispute for power" between rival factions. Siragusa made the remarks at a Metropolitan law enforce ment conference at Manhattan college. CHARCOAL STEAKS TILL MIDNIGHT CANDLE ROOM HOTEL Medford Open Daily 5:30 P.M. to Midnight Sundays 4 P.M.

Runway Visibility Rang - - Place more emphasU on the new runway visibility range (RVR) system and en courage its installation at busy airports. RVR can tell a pilot at what point on his de scent through soupy weather he will be able to see the run way. Present visibility infor mation tells the pilot only at what altitude, immediately over the field, he can "break through" and see the runway. Monroney said he will seek increased Congressional ap propriations in all areas where additional funds - will be needed to carry out his air safety recommendation.
