and two others In their party
were cited by a federal game
protector for violating game
regulations.
"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.

and Mrs. Halleck spent a
pleasant week end as guests
of longtime friends, the E.

the Commerce Department.
Not Expocted to Appear
Halleck said he did not ex
pect to be required to appear

i ing set for Wednesday on the
charges against him and
others cited for game viola
tions at the club. He said he
thought the matter would be
' handled by an attorney.
Robert Hallstead, U.S. game
' management agent, said Hal
lock and six others, hunting
! Saturday in two parties, were
in a field baited with wheat

up to $500 in fines and six
months imprisonment.
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.

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-
