I'niled IMIlltles West Rank Corp WetinEhouse Youngstown President Asked To Set Sunday For Observance WASHINGTON (UPI) - A group of Republican and Demo cratic senators have appealed for a nationwide day of mourn ing and protest for the four chil dren killed in the Birmingham, Ala., church bombing. Senate Democratic Whip Hu bert H. Humphrey of Minnesota led the group in asking Presi dent Kennedy to proclaim next Sunday as a day of national mourning for the young girls killed last Sunday. At the same time, sponsors of the Aug. 28 civil rights march on Washington made plans for silent protest marches in scores of cities throughout the nation, perhaps on Sunday, with a pos sible assembly by one group near the White House. Humphrey lashed out at Southern business and profes sional leaders who he said have encouraged racial violence for economic profit. His was t h f, first of a torrent of Senate speeches on the Birmingham bombing. Southerner Shares Blame On the other side of the Capi tol, a freshman congressman from Atlanta, Ga., said South ern moderates, including him self, must share the blame for the bombing. "We have stood by, leaving the field to reckless and violent men," said Rep. Charles L. Weltncr (D- Ga.). In his speech the fiery Humph rey said the entire nation "ought to be wearing ashes and sackcloth" after the latest Bir mingham violence. "We should never again at tempt to lecture anv other na tion until we have cleaned this blot of racial injustice from our shield," he said. Humphrey concentrated h i s fire on what he called the "Southern establishment . . . those who, control banks, fac tories, news media, and who contribute heavily to poli ticians. "I know the power of these men," he said. "And 1 also know that much of their power is linked with, and subservient to, the economic power of the Northern and Eastern banks, in surance companies and other corporations. 'Strong Words' "And so for profit, for money the whirlwind of racial hatred and violence has been encour aged not permitted but en couraged, invited yes, incited. "These are strong words," Humphrey said. "I feel them strongly. Specifically, Humphrey criti cized those who, he said, keep Negroes uneducated and un trained to hold down wages in the South, those who fight the growth of labor unions by "set ting white worker against Ne gro, those who make political careers out of "Negro-baiting." and those who play up Negro crime in newspapers. The Minnesota Democrat said the blame for the Southern ra cial situation must be shared by Northern leaders who "have at the very least acquiesced in the policies of racial degradation and humiliation."

(UPI) -Decaying Hurricane Cindy, now degraded to a tropical storm, triggered downpours of more than 15 inches of rain along the flood - stricken Texas - Louisi and coast Tuesday night and to day. Hundreds of persons were forced from their homes. Res cue workers in boats and Army trucks helped residents to shel ter. Flooding wasn't the only problem posed by the cloud bursts. Rattlesnakes and water moccasins slithered to high ground seeking refuge from their flooded bayous. The civil defense told citizens to be on the look out for the reptiles. Army trucks evacuated 200 persons from Port Acres during the night. Some 800 persons were in Port Arthur Red Cross shelters and more streamed in. Schools were closed in the Beau mont Port Arthur areas. The civil defense in Port Ar thur said some persons woke up today with water lapping at their beds. They quickly called for help. Boats were being pressed into service in areas the trucks could not ford. Some observers said the flood ing in the Port Arthur - Beau mont area was worse than that caused by Hurricane Carla in 1961. Cindy was not a killer hur ricane like Carla, which killed at least 18 persons. No deaths or injuries have been reported. More than 15 inches of rain fell at both Beaumont and Port Arthur. Cindy was moving on a north northwestward course about five miles an hour today. The storm was located north of Houston. Police rescued 30 persons dur ing the night in Beau m o n t where water seeped three feet deep into some homes. The po lice switchboard received 20 to 30 more calls from families wanting help. Damage to the rice crop alone was estimated at $1 million. Small boats were being put into use at Beaumont, where more than 12 inches of rain fell. The Red Cross housed and fed families chased from their homes. The Red Cross said 470 persons were housed in five shelters at Beaumont.

Shell tells why and gives five other tips that will help you squeeze more miles out of every gallon. The way you drive lias a lot to do with the mileage you get. One important thing to remember is this: use a light, steady touch on the accelerator almost as if there were an egg between your loot and the pedal. That doesn't mean you have to poke along. It simply means you avoid stomping needlessly on the acceler ator in such a way that you force Iced the engine, wasting gasoline. Dtm't race your engine when you're standing still. It wastes fuel. D'f indulge in jaekrabbit starts. 1 hey hold automatic transmissions in a lower gear longer, make engines run faster and squander luel. Don't drive at excessive speeds. The faster you go, the more fuel you burn up. At 70 miles per hour, for instance, gaso line consumption will lie as much as JO percent higher than at 60. So much for some things you shouldn't do. Now, lor some things you should do. 1. Drive "ahead of your car." Watch for slowing traffic and red lights as far ahead as you can sec. You'll lie able to pace your self with the other cars, avoid excessive slowing dow n and speeding up, and keep smooth, even pressure on the acceler ator. Mileage will improve. 2. (let these fuel-saving engine adjust, incuts. If spark timing is off, lor example, you may be paying for it in wasted gas oline. I lave it set properly. I lave the com pression checked lor power-wasting valve and ring conditions. Merc are other essential adjustments: A. Keep your spark plugs at peak effi ciency. Dirty or incorrectly adjusted spark plugs can steal up to a full mile from every gallon of gasoline vour car burns. Use Super Shell gasoline with famous TCP additive to give spark plugs longer life. B. Adjust carburetor for correct air-fuel mixture and proper idle speed. C. I lave automatic choke checked for correct operation. D. Make sure your air filter is clean and replace it il necessary. E. Have your fuel lines checked periodi cally to make sure they're not leaking. 3. Check tire pressure regularly. Keep tires properly inflated. Undcrinfiated tires increase friction, cut mileage. 4. Cheek for dragging brakes. Have your Shell dealer check for brake drag the next time you're in lor lubrication. If brakes drag, you pay for it not only with extra brake wear, but with extra gasoline. 5. Show this advertisement to everyone who drives your car. Especially if you pay their gasoline bills. The closer you and your family follow these tips, the bet ter your mileage will be. To start off right, fill up with today's Super Shell gasoline. One of Super Shell's 9 working ingredients is a mileage booster called Platlormate. It makes a real differ ence in the mileage you get. MEDFORD SHELL DEALERS DE-BUNK A MYTH ABOUT CAR CARE It's a myth that there's no point in using a premium gasoline if regular is recommended for your car It's true that engines built for regular gasoline will run fincon regular for thousands ol miles. But alter uhilc, deposits can bake on com bustion chamber walls, licsult: octane require ments go up. The engine may knock. You hear telltale "pinging." II this happens, the engine can't deliver top pcrlonnancc without the extra octane of a premium grade lucl. Thai s the rcM loti iioii ri.
