Possible Threat
Of Communist
Attack Discussed
Palm' Beach, Fla. - IUPD -President-elect
John F. Ken
nedy conferred with Central
Intelligence Agency chief Al
len W. Dulles nearly three
hours today on global prob
lems including the possible
threat of a Communist-led at
Kennedy's acting press see
retary, Donald M. Wilson, told
newsmen after the two hour
and 40 minute meeting that
the next president and the
CIA chief "discussed a wide
range of matters" including
tension in the Caribbean area.
Comment Declined
Wilson said Kennedy would
decline to comment on Presi
dent Eisenhower's having
rushed U.S. Navy units to the
area in response to appeals
from Guatemala and Nica
ragua for help in defending
against a feared "Communist
directed" attack from Fidel
Castro's Cuba.
"Senator Kennedy feels it's
improper for him to discuss
actions of policies of the
United States government at
this time because he has no
responsibility until he assumes
office inauguration day," Wil
son said. "That is going to be
his policy on all such matters
between now and inaugura
tion day (next Jan. 20)."
Wilson announced that
when Kennedy returns to
Washington next Wednesday
to spend Thanksgiving with
his wife and child, he also
will meet with AFL-CIO Pres
ident George Meany to discuss
unemployment problems.

Charter Government
Discussed at Clinic
For County Officers
County home rule charter
committees should learn first
what functions the county
performs now and decide what
functions it will serve in the
future, according to Bernard
F.- Hillenbrand, executive di
rector, National Association of
County Officials.
;TTfour speeches during the coun
ty charter clinic held as part
of the Association ot Oregon
Counties' 65th annual conven
tion in ' Portland . Tuesday
through today. ...
"One basic weakness of
county government is that it
tends to be government by
committee without executive
leadership," Hillenbrand
pointed out. "You need execu
tive leadership at the county
level.' In the cities municipal
committees largely have been
abandoned." ;
Function of Leadership
The authority on local gov
ernment explained that func
tions of county executive
leadership are to make laws,
administer them, and some
times even assume judicial
responsibility.
Hillenbrand said he prefers
elected executives for larger
counties. Such a county head
would provide the political
leadership, piaintain the tra
ditional checks and balances
in local government, as a long
time resident of the communi
ty be more likely to under
stand . its problems, and be
cause of his closeness with the
community be more likely to
have its backing in local gov
ernment programs.
Points against an elected
executive are that an effec
tive administration is needed
more than political leader
ship, and political popularity
does not always insure ability.
City Manager Plant
Hillenbrand noted that of
17,000 U. S. municipalities,
1,700 have city manager plans.
The city managers are subject
to control by the council and
subject to removal at any time
by the council. Of 3,039 U. S.
counties, 17 have adopted the;
county manager system.
The NACO director noted
trends in county administra-
from a heart ailment, gave
her permission for the en
tombment beside Miss Lom
bard. A third crypt, bought
several years ago and located
beside Gable's, someday will
contain Kay's body.
Miss Lombard died in a
plane crash in 1942 alter
three years of marriage with
Gable. Their romance at the
time was considered one of
Filmland's most idyllic.
Bought Same Time
Gable bought the crypt his
body will occupy at the same
time he bought the one for
Miss Lombard. He purchased
a third for Kay shortly alter
they were wed In 1955.
Services Saturday at 9 a.m.,
(PST), will be at the Church
of Recessional In Forest
Lawn, and probably will last
less than one hour.

tion changes. Most persistent
trend is a broadening of coun
ty functions, he said. Counties
in recent years have estab
lished crime laboratories, cen
tral micro - filming systems,
penitentiaries which serve as
many as 11 counties by con
tract and extensive sanitation

William Siegel, assistant
county counsel, Santa Clara

charters are not necessary if
the state legislature has grant
ed counties broad powers and
if the counties use these pow
ers as in California.

Court Studies Appea
To Malt Integration
School Board at
New Orleans Sees
End of Operation
Pro-Segregationists
Overflow Courtroom
New Orlcans-A three-man
federal court took under ad
visement today appeals for
halting integration in New
Orleans including a warning
from the school board the city
was reaching the point where
it would be unable to operate
the city's public educational
system.
The court battle came as
three of the four Negro girls
put in first grade classes last
Monday found themselves
with a building and teachers
all to themselves.
Whiles Absent
No white children showed
up today among the usual 46?
attending McDonogh Grade
School and only four whites
with the one 6-year-old Ne
gro girl at William Frantz
which ordinarily has more
than 500.
A pro-segregation crowd
overspilled the federal court
room into the lobby of the
Post Office Building as the
state of Louisiana demanded
a reversal of integration and
the school board pleaded for a
temporary halt because it was
caught in between.
It was to be the last school
day for at least a week. The
entire New Orleans system
was ordered by the school
board to be closed next Mon
day to Friday for teachers'
meetings and the Thanksgiv
ing holiday.
But attention today
switched to a three-man fed
eral court headed by U.S. Dis
trict Court Judge J. Skelly
Wright who originally ordered
integration in New Orleans.
Gravely concerned by flare-
ups of violence around the
two integrated schools and
throughout the city, the local
school board asked the court
to grant temporary permission
to end integration until the
U.S. Supreme Court settles
the "entanglement" between
the state and federal govern
ments.

Annexation
By Duff at Meeting
Medford City Manager Rob
ert A. Duff said yesterday on
his return from the League of
Oregon Cities convention In
Salem that Medford's experi
ence with anncxtatlon is prob
ably one of the most "out
standing" In the stute.
Duff, who was honored at
the convention for his 35
years of service to municipal
government, delivered a talk
on annexation at a general
session of the four-day confer
ence.
The only other city that has
had as much success with an
nexation as Medford, Duff
said, is Springfield.
Compelling Reason
Duff said he believes that
the success or failure of an
nexation policies depends on
whether or not there Is a
compelling reason" for out
lying areas to want to annex

Eisenhower Keeps
Up on Movements
Of Defense Units
Steps Taken To
Thwart Invasion
Augusta, Ga. -IUPII - Presi
dent Eisenhower studied coded
reports today from U.S. war
ships patrolling the Caribbean
to guard Guatemala and Nica
ragua from any surprise Com-
munist-lcd attack.
Eisenhower kept posted on
the movements of Navy ships
and planes following his blunt
warning to Cuban Premier
Fidel Castro to keep hands oft
the two Central American na
tions.
To Prevent Invasion
The President, responding
to formal requests by both re
volt-battered republics, Thurs
day directed naval units to
"seek out and prevent" any
Red directed invasion of
Guatemala or Nicaragua.
His orders were viewed as
an attempt to check a grow
ing Communist threat to the
Panama Canal from subver
sion or revolution in Central
America.
The action indicated that
U.S. officials believed charges
by Guatemalan and Nicaragu
an leaders that recent abort
ive revolts against their gov
ernments were inspired by
Castro.
Claimed Intervention
Cuba's official newspaper,
La Callo, termed the action
"Yankee military interven
tion" and a threat to peace.
The newspaper ridiculed tho
Idea that the two countries
were jeopardized by an in
vasion launched from Cuba.
But ' American diplomats
long have been worried about
huge shipments.of war equip
ment from Russia and China
to bolster Cuba's war-making
potential. They fear that Cas
tro may try to decide to "ex
port" his revolution elsewhere
In the turbulent Caribbean.
Meanwhile the White House
brushed off Communist con
demnations of Eisenhower's
action In sending U.S. war
ships and planes to guard the
two countries.
Presidential Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty called at
tention to the similarity of tho
protests from Soviet . leaders
In Moscow and Cuban govern
ment sources in Havana.'
But he refused to charac
terize the Cuban charges that
the action endangered world
peace. It speaks for Itself, he
said. .

areas to want to annex to
Medford, he said, and noted
that the same Is true with,
areas around Springfield.
However, areas around oth
er Oregon cities do not find
these problems ; nearly as
acuto and are able to ade
quately get by without annex

36 Annexations . ..
Since. 1950 there hove been
38 separate annexations to
the city of Medford, which all
told have added 4,064 acres
to the city, . increasing the
city's land area by 289 per
cent. These annexations have
also added an estimated 5,000
people to the city's population.
In turn the city has In
stalled 25.6 miles of trunk
sower mains at a cost of some
$964,574 In these recently an
nexed areas. A large number
of water mains have also
been- provided these areas, he
said, but on somewhat ol a
lesser scale.
