The Long proposal would have declared that nothing in the administration civil rights bill or any other measure should be interpreted as pre venting a person from exer cising his "freedom of speech" to advocate separation of the races and resistance "by all legal means" to "forceful" in tegration.

Not General Advocacy Regarding vice presidential candidates Appling said "in the case of both the Republi can and Democratic vice presi dent nominations, I find that no persons have 'advocacy' sufficient that it could be characterized as 'general'." Under the new law, Appling had the sole power to pick names for the ballot. The law told him to choose those who are "generally advocated by national news media through out the United States." Ap pling decided the extent of advocacy by studying a spec ial press clipping file. His ex posure to radio and television also figured in the selection. 'Outer Space' Qualities Persons whose names are filed by petition may not re move their names. Only 1,000 signatures are required. So far only names of Humphrey and Morse have been filed by this method although petition campaigns are under way for Nixon and Kennedy. Deadline for filing by peti tion is March 11. 'Cape Canaveral Primary The Oregon primary has been termed by Kennedy as "an adventure in outer space." It also has been called the "Cape Canaveral primary" by Oregon's Republican gover nor, Mark Hatfield, who was speaking of its explosive qualities. Appling said that although Humphrey's name has been entered by petition he decided to "follow through anyway" by naming him as a generally recognized candidate. Stevenson, twice defeated for the presidency by Presi dent Eisenhower, has said he is not a candidate this year but his name often has come up as a possible choice in case the Democratic convention becomes deadlocked. Finch's Lawyer To Finish Appeal Los Angeles - (UPD - Dr. R. Bernard Finch's lawyer today was to finish his appeal to the jury to free the surgeon from a charge of wife murder and possible death in the gas chamber. Prosecutor Fred N.

American officials attribut ed this to a number of factors, but said the chief reason was that Eisenhower was able to operate in a much more free wheeling manner here than in Brazil or Argentina. This has been reflected in the fact that his speeches took on more zip and his actions became less rigidly circumscribed by protocol. Diplomatic Tightrope When visiting Brazil and Argentina, which are the two big rivals in South America, Eisenhower had to walk a dip lomatic tightrope to avoid giv ing either any grounds for be lieving it was receiving less favored treatment than the other. But this was not the case during his two-day stay in Santiago. Here the famous Eisenhower personality had full scope, with the result that Chileans shouted "I like Ike" with the same strange fervor which gripped millions of citizens in other foreign coun tries he has visited. Real Understanding Santiago's popular press hailed Eisenhower as "Tio Ike" (Uncle Ike) whom they Denevea naa snown real un derstanding of Latin Ameri can problems and sincerely planned to'do something about them. The more staid journals praised Eisenhower for his "statesmanlike" discussions of the problems of disarmament, economics and hemispheric solidarity and generally agreed that his visit vastly en hanced the image of the United States in these parts.

S1195 Demons facial Segregation By United Press International Demonstrations against ra cial segregation in the South spread across the nation today with a group of Tennessee Ne groes choosing jail terms to dramatize their "non-violent" campaign against racial bar riers. Protest meetings at colleges were touched off by the mass trial at Nashville, Tenn., of 75 Negro and five white stu dents arrested for demonstrat ing against segregated lunch counters in the city's depart ment stores. Appeals Pending Most of the Negroes pre ferred jail terms of 33 and one-third days each rather than "support the injustice" of segregation by paying $50 fines. Fifteen of those tried on disorderly conduct charges Tuesday in the trial which lasted until 11 p.m. chose jail. Four others who appealed their fines before the "back to jail" movement started re mained free under bond pend ing appeal. The trials resumed today. The dean of Vanderbilt Uni versity Divinity School at Nashville said the university was considering expulsion of the Rev. James Lawson Jr., 32, Negro divinity student who coached other Negroes in passive resistance tech niques. Dean Robert Nelson said no final decision was made. Negro groups staged rallies in at least four South Carolina cities Tuesday night.
