"If anything improper -with respect to the hunting -was done prior to my arrival at the club or while I was a guest there, 1 was completely unaware and totally unin formed of It," Halleck said in a statement. Halleck said he paid $20 for a nonresident North Carolina hunting license for the occa sion and that he also had, from a previous visit to the state, a fishing license that cost $6.10. He did not catch any fish. He had bagged sev eral doves but the game war den relieved him of them. i Otherwise.

Flames Destroy , Negro Churches; Tension Mounts Dawson, Ga. -tlPt- Desegre gation leaders have called on President Kennedy "to stop the Nazi-like reign of terror In southwest Georgia." Two Negro churches were destroyed by fire Sunday and a white man attacked an FBI agent investigating the blazes. Arrested for striking a fed eral officer was Virgil E. Puckett, 58. He was sched uled to be arraigned today before the U. S. commissioner at nearby Albany, scene of mass arrests and racial demon strations since December! Since desegregation activi ties were stepped up here last month, three Negro churches have been burned down, four Negro homes have been fired on and a white youth working in a Negro voter registration drive has been shot and wounded. Scene of Meetings Negro voter registration meetings had been held in one of the churches which burned Sunday. A minister and a dea con in the other church have been active in the vote drive. Terrell County Sheriff Z. T. Matthews said he did not think efforts to register Ne groes to vote had anything to do with the church burnings. Matthews said the whites "don't like the mingling" of white and Negro members of the Student Nonviolent Coor dinating committee (SNCC), the group which has spear headed the registration efforts. The sheriff said white youths and girls were living in Negro homes here while working with SNCC. Issues Denial However, Prathia Hall, 22-year-old Negro coed from Temple university, said there were no white girls with SNCC in this area. "We may have had visits from white girls at our headquarters," she said, "but none are staying here." Mrs. Lucy B. Mallory, 52, a Negro who lives near the Mount Olive Baptist church, said she saw the church on fire from her window at about 2 a.m. Mrs. Mallory said she awak ened her husband but he was unable to put out the blaze. I didn't sleep a wink after that," she said. "I am scared to death." A short time later fire broke out at the Mount Mary Bap tist church.

PRAYS FOR COUNCIL Rome - lUPH - Pope John XXIII today began a week of prayer and meditation "to prepare the condition of his spirit" for the ecumenical council, which opens Oct. 11. The Pope said in the Rome Church of Santa Maria Degli Angeli that the council "will represent an effort to bring about the triumph of peace, justice, and love." By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington (Special) Prospects for reversing the Canadian-American lumber trade pattern to the advantage of distressed Pacific North west mills appear somewhat dim in the near ftuure, ac cording to informed officials. Since a White House parley between President Kennedy and Northwest Democratic members of Congress on July 26. there has been a flurry of activity chiefly lumber talks in Ottawa and legisla tive action in Congress but with inconclusive results. At the president's direction, a group of administration offi cials from the departments of State and Commerce met with Canadian officials about 10 days ago in an effort to get Canada to limit its rising ex ports of lumber into the Unit ed States. The communique is sued afterwards was vague, but Capitol Hill sources say no commitments were obtained beyond an agreement to meet again soon. 'The Canadians are pretty smart," is the way one partici pating official put it. By this, he meant that the Canadians know the United States gov ernment would be extremely reluctant to take any restric tive action against their lum ber trade because some of the British Columbia mills enjoy ing this trade are American- owned1 and Canada buys much more from America in total commodities than she sells here. Prospect of Lumber Mill Assistance Appearing Dim Arson Checked in Cathedral Blaze San Francisco-IUPll-Puzzled arson investigators picKea through the rubble of St. Mary's cathedral today, seek ing the cause of a fi.e that swiftly destroyed the San Francisco landmark. Flames erupted in the 71- year-old cathedral late Friday night, and in less than an hour the building's roof collapsed. St. Mary's,, a survivor of the earthquake and fire of 1906, was the seat of the Ro man Catholic archdiocese of San Francisco. Its replacement value was set at $2.5 million. The rapid spread of the fire caused firemen to suspect ar son, although investigators had as yet found no other evi dence it was set deliberately. The While House had pre viously made clear to the Northwest lawmakers that the president would not invoke the import quota many of them had requested. An at tempt to add a rider to the pending trade bill authorizing such a quota has apparently been abandoned by Sen. War ren G. Magnuson for lack of support. Sen. Maurine Neuberger has prepared an amendment to the trade bill for which she has high hopes. It would elim inate the application of the Jones act to shipments serving Puerto Rico, which currently gets all its lumber from out side the United States because no domestic vessels serve that island - thus no American mills can market any lumber there. A decade ago, she notes, Oregon and Washington mills supplied 92 per cent of Puer to Rico's lumber; but last year its entire demand for 73, 249, 000 bd. ft, came from British Columbia. The more sweeping bill, en dorsed by the president, to suspend the Jones act when the Secretary of Commerce finds it is hurting a domestic industry, has been cast into limbo by objections from southern senators who have demanded hearings in their region because of objections from Southern pine operators. Magnuson got the bill report ed favorably out of his com mittee but has agreed not to press it until such southern hearings can be held, presum ably after Congress has ad journed - when all 'pending bills die. Meanwhile, the Tariff com mission is doing field work on the lumber import issue in preparation for hearings which begin Oct. 2. Lumber industry representatives are preparing to argue their case in favor of restricting Cana dian imports because of in jury to the domestic industry. This procedure is expected to take some months. The Tariff commission, in the end, can only reach conclusions and of fer recommendations to the president if it finds the lum ber industry has been hurt. By this same sort of proce dure, quotas were applied by President Eisenhower to for eign shipments of lead and zinc into the United States in order to help western miners some years ago. Magnuson's committee is pressing the administration for a report on the effect of another pledge made by Ken-. abroad. If vigorously execu- ........ I.
