Gov. George C Wallace, succes

ham, today temporarily closed
our more schools scheduled to
desegregate in Huntsville.
State troopers surrounded
three elementary and one jun
ior high school in Huntsville
about 8:30 a.m. (edt) to enforce
the governor's order to post
pone the opening of classes un
til Monday.
Four Negroes were scheduled
to start classes today at Hunts
ville where the city school
board had gone along with an
earlier request by the govern
or to put off the opening until
today while he made his moves
at Tuskegee and Birmingham.
Two Negro students failed to
show up for classes at Murphy
High school in Mobile, where
the fall term began today. State
troopers were sent into the port
city Thursday by Wallace, but
did not appear at the school.
Plans To Open Schools
Huntsville Mayor R. B. Sear
cy said the city planned to open
its schools despite Wallace's
latest order, similar to the one
he used to close for one week
a white school in Tuskegee
which was on the verge of ad
mitting 13 Negroes.
Searcy acknowledged, howev
er, that the governor had the
power to close schools by exec
utive order.
"I just wish the governor had
not sent the troopers in here,
Searcy said.
State troopers moved into
Huntsville and Mobile Thursday
from this steel city where Ne
groes were to ask a federal
court today to order the reopen
ing of three desegregated
schools closed following rioting
that claimed one life, .

Action was deferred because
of the fact that PP&L recently

Although the governor was not

Emergency Board
Slashes $25,000
From Vote Funds
Money Requests
By Agencies Refused
Salem (UPI ) The Emergen
cy Board today warned of a
tax revolt, slashed $25,000 from
the funds set aside for the spe
1 cial Oct. 15 tax referendum elec
! tion, and refused all money re
! quests submitted by state agen
cies. The $300,000 set aside to fi
nance the referral election was
cut back to $275,000 after Elec
tions Supervisor Jack Thompson
said he thought no more than
that would be needed.
The board refused a $21,650
request from Atty. Gen. Robert
Y. Thornton to implement the
Uniform Supervision of Trustees
for Charitable Purposes Act.
The vote against the appropri
ation was 6-3.
The board then voted unani
mously to deny $80,556 asked by
the State Tax Commission to
implement three of the laws
passed by the last legislature.
The feeling of the Emergency
Board was that the commission
could get along with the $8.1
million appropriated during the
regular session.
Tax Commission Chairman
Paul Lenniger said "we will
do what we can," but said with
out money the commission
might not be able to adminis
ter the laws. Involved are the
new local budget law, farm
land zoning law and new for
est access roads legislation.
Sen. Ward Cook (D-Portland)
warned other members of the
Emergency Board that the state
was undergoing a tax revolt.
"It will take a miracle to pre
vent defeat of the tax bill at
the Oct. 15 election," he said.
In light of the feeling being
expressed by taxpayers, he said
he felt the board should refuse
all requests that were not of an
extreme emergency nature.
Morse, Wallace
Continue Insults
At Long Range
Washington (UPI) Alabama
Gov. George C. Wallace and
Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.)have
measured mental faculties and
each found the other wanting.
Continuing an exchange of in
sults at long range with Wallace,
Morse told the Senate Friday
that Wallace came out of World
War II with a psychiatric dis
ability. The senator said the
governor had not been exam
ined by the Veterans Adminis
tration since 1956 and that it
would be appropriate for him
"to volunteer to be examined
At the present time."
Kick in Head Mentioned
In Alabama, Wallace replied
that Morse may be suffering
from effects of a kick in the
head by a horse.
Morse read into the Senate
record excerpts of what he de
scribed as Governor Wallace's
military service record. He said
Wallace was honorably discharg
ed with a disability rating of
10 per cent attributed to anxiety
and tension.
Said Nervous Type
Contacted in Anniston. Ala.,
Wallace conceded that he is a
I nervous type. "Yes, like many
other veterans who saw combat,
I am nervous," he said.
Then Wallace added, "I won
der what causes his (Morse's)
nervousness? Maybe, as M r s.
Clare Booth Luce once said
while testifying before a con
gressional committee, he was
kicked in the head by a horse."

Demand Made in
Formal Mole To
U.S. Embassy
' No Indication
Of Reply Given
Saigon, South Vict Nam
(UPI) The Vietnamese govern
ment demanded today that the
United States hand over three
Buddhist priests who took refuge
in the American Embassy here
last Sunday, diplomatic sources
said.
The three priests included
Thich Tri Quang, who is re
ported to have masterminded
the Buddhist protest movement
against the government of Presi
dent Ngo Dinh Diem.
The sources said the demand
was made in a formal aide
memoire from the Vietnamese
Foreign Office. U.S. Embassy
representative William Truehart
was summoned to the Foreign
Office and handed the demand.
There was no immediate indi
cation whether the United States
would hand over the three
priests.
Escaped Arrest
Quang somehow managed to
escape arrest when government
troops and police stormed and
sacked the city's main Xa Lot
pagoda in the prc-dawn hours
oi Aug. 21, in a massive crack
down on the Buddhist protest
movement.
Last Tuesday, embassy of
ficials refused to grant refuge
to another young Buddhist priest
because they said he was not a
Buddhist leader and clearly was
not in danger. At (he time, a
source said the embassy had
made it a policy to shelter only
Buddhist leaders who might be
in danger.
Neither Key Figure
The other two nriesls who
took refuge in the embassy with
him were Le Mai Chi and Tran
Wan Nham, neither of whom
was considered a key figure in
the Buddhist movement.
The sources said the aide
memoire specifically named the
three priests and said they were
wanted for investigation.
The sources said this was the
first time the Vietnamese gov
ernment formally had demand
ed that the embassy hand over
the priests.
Earlier, diplomatic sources
said the United States now is
resigned to working wilh tho
present government here and is
searching (or areas of joint co
operation to save the country
from Communist control.
