Next Few Weeks Said Important in Deseg regation Move By AL KUETNNER . ' .UPI Correspondent I The next few weeks prob ably will provide important clues to the route the desegre gation movement will follow in the immediate future. -Two factors are critical: ' : -rCan Negro leaders be per suaded .to declare a morato rium on street demonstrations during the weeks it will take to consider a strong new civil rights bill now before Con gress? '-Can Negro groups settle their differences and join forces in one unified drive for the. "civil rights" they are de manding? . , ' President Kennedy has pro posed a bill that would for the .first time guarantee ac cess by Negroes to privately owned facilities such as hotels and restaurants which gen erally are used by the public traveling acros state lines. The Senate,' Commerce committee has started on one phase of the bilj. Negro leaders are under the strongest pressure from both the President and Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy to call off racial' demonstrations while the measure is under consid eration. Attitude Is Negative So far, the attitude of ma jor groups running the nation wide desegregation campaign Morse To Propose Foreign Aid Strings Washington - (UPI) -Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) told the Senate; Monday that he is go ing to' introduce an amend ment to limit foreign aid to to nations which meet stand ards laid down by the U.S. Ho said the amendment would end most aid programs in their present form as of next July 1. Morse said his proposal would 'not affect "a few exist ing irrevocable commitments" but would "re-orient drastical ly the totality of our foreign aid program." He said his proposal, when drafted; would spell out the "strings" which would be ap plied to future aid by the U.S. "77" if- I' s :1 New fully automatic PORTABLE TV (ssssssssssssi sssssssssssssaaasssassaaaaaasssw . y v ft '"p '''' ' OPTIONAL TOTAL REMOTE CONTROL permits you to change channels, cut-off sound, adjust volume, and turn TV onoff all from your easy chair.

In keeping with their "no truce'' policy Negro groups for a massive demonstration for a massvie demonstration in the nation's capital Aug. 28, timed when they expect the bill to hit the Senate floor. Thcy say the demonstration would point up the urgency of passing the bill and would be a deterrent to an expected Southern filibuster. Kennedy administration of ficials, sympathetic with the Negro cause, have, warned that a major demonstration could have just the opposite effect. Administration Demo crats know they will need strong bipartisan support to shut off debate on the bill. They don't think they could attract much Republican in-terest-and might lose some from the Democratic side-if demonstrations outside are being used' to pressure con gressmen inside.. . . Optimistic Figure Negroes speak of promot ing a crowd of 100,000 dem onstrators. Granted the fig ure is optimistic, a crowd even half that size would present a monumental problem at best and a possible riot at worst. Who among the Negro lead ership would be responsible for the conduct of such a crowd'.' i Many groups, principally the NAACP, have found it necessary to campaign for Ne gro support. Rep. Charles C: Diggs (D Mich.), a Negro congressman, proposed a "summit meeting" of Negro organizations "where we start concentrat ing on objectives and forget the differences which may ex ist among our leadership with respect to the pace and ap proach." Aside from reducing the over-all effectiveness of the desegregation campaign - a point that was being cheered by arch-segregationists-the di vision in the Negro command could have drastic repercus sions in effective control of a demonstration like that being planned for Washington. the magnificent IS YOUR BEST 7? your home! only PURU MUSIC No. Central Phone 773-7538 I j mho. .f v i "'"lyJ J mms f i,, ...

Botanical Cursing Substitution of Flowery Words For Objectional Swearing Urged By DICK WEST Washington-IUPD-Most of us have a few profane friends whose language causes us to cringe or blush, depending on whether we are cringers or blushers. If you have friends like that then you might be in terested in a new swearing technique I heard about recently. West It suggests a way you can help your friends not only clean up their language but make it smell belter as well. Under-this method, the per son whose use of swear words gives you offense is persuaded to substitute the names of flowers for the objectionable terms. The floral word simply abounds with innocent little appellations that can be 3 BUY!

The first step in the re habilitation of your foul mouthed friends is to coach them to exclaim "great jump ing geraniums!" when they are startled or amazed. If we car. get them in the habit of exclaiming "great jumping geraniums!" the next step will be comparatively simple. The next step is to change their naughty manner of ex pressing astonishment. Recom mended substitutes are "Well, I'll be a fringed milkwort" and "Well, I'll be a double daisy." By this time a pattern.. will have been established and they will soon be registering exasperation or disgust with "Oh, horse chestnuts!" rather than something more graphic. The second phase of botan ical cursing is likely to be more difficult, however, for it involves the names your friends call other people. Break them in gently by suggesting that, they should "Jake that, you dastardly dogbane!" when punching someone in the nose. They can let off steam that way while remaining within the bounds of verbal propriety. Then they can work up to "unhand nie, you hybrid hya cinth!" or "don't get gay with me, you perennial pawpaw." When your friends are in a pet because someone has done them wrong, admonish them to say "I wouldn't be caught dead talking to that hydro ponic hydrangea." They likewise can get their point across by denouncing their antagonists as a 'Vir ginia creeper." If you can indoctrinate your friends in the floral method of profanity, it won't be long before you can associate with them without embarrassment, even in mixed company. Court Reverses Estate Judgment Salem-dTluThe Oregon Su preme Court . has reversed a $9,608 judgment against the estate of the late Dr. Irvin B. Hill, superintendent of Ore- gon-Fairview Home. The suit against the estate had been brought by Pauline Elizabeth Jarrett, who charg ed Hill was negligent in giv ing a leave of absence to a patient who assaulted her. The court ruled that Mult nomah County Circuit Judge Alan f. Davis didn't have jur isdiction to enter a judgment against Hill's estate. It noted that only the leg islature can waive the state's immunity and that an action against an agency of the stale is actually one against the state. The court said Hill could only have been held re sponsible as superintendent and not as an individual. The trial court should have dismissed the suit, the court ruled. In other action, the court reprimanded Eugene attorney Eugene C. Venn for improper, conduct. He wes found to have com municated directly with an adverse party who was repre sented by counsel. Venn is a former Lane county district attorney.
