Larger Troop Move Planned To Far East FRANKFURT, Germany, (UPI) The biggest and fast est transoceanic military airlift ever undertaken was declared a complete success today. Mili tary leaders began planning for larger one to the far east next spring. Air Force Secretary Eugene M. Zuckert called special atten tion to the 100 per cent safety record in Big Lift, the move ment of more than 15.000 troops carried out to show how rapid ly the United States could build up its forces in Europe in a crisis. Senae of Urgency In a tribute to the Military Air Transport Service's (MATS) accident-free delivery of the 2nd Armored Division from Texas to Western Europe, Zuckert said operations over the 5,600 mile aerial bridge were per formed "with a real sense of urgency but entirely consist ent with airline safety standards." The transoceanic phase of Ex ercise "Big Lift" ended at 10:05 p.m. (5.05 D.m. EDT) Thursday when a big C130 turbo-prop troop transport set down under glaring floodlights at Sembach Air Base, 35 miles southwest of here. The honor of deliverins the last 58 battle-clad soldiers of the "Hell on Wheels" division went to Lt. Cmdr. Lawrence S. Wright, skipper in a Naw squadron based at Moffett Field, Calif., and assigned to MATS. His flight from Connal- ly Air Force Base, Tex., had taken 24 hours. Arrival of the Naw Diane came 63 hours and 5 minutes after the first Air Force C135 jet transport had taken off from Bergstrom Air Force Base. Tex., on a 10V4 hour flight with oz soldiers. Own Goal Beaten The Army had called for de livery within 72 hours of the 2nd Armored Division, which now will engage in combat exercises near the East German border. MATS had set a schedule of 63 hours 40 minutes to allow for weather delays. It thus beat its goal by 35 minutes. Zuckert told newsmen that such "realistic deployment ex ercises are going to fie part of the normal training routine." He did not claborale. But it was learned that the Defense Department is maDDinc out plans now for a huge air- ini next spring 10 '.ne ar East. In almost every way, this will be more complex ihdii the Big Lift maneuver with greater dis tances to be flown, more ton nage and perhaps more troops to be delivered and more con fined areas for the landing operations.

Council of Churches Attorneys Ask Halt in Arrest of Worshipping Negroes CkhIiiI CldrlSi, & Hit Plsnttlt HOW TO RECEIVE JESUS i BE SAVED. HOW TO RECEIVE THE HOLT SHOST I SPEAK IN UNKNOWN TONCUES. PRAYER r0R HEALING. FREE SEND THIS AD TO ..,. cixjROH, LOS ANGELES 5, CAL By United Press International Attorneys for the National Council of Churches were to ap pear in federal court today to ask that officials in Jackson, Miss., be halted from arresting Negroes attempting to worship at "white-only" churches. U.S. District Court Judge Harold Cox was ordered by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Ap peals Thursday to take charge of the case, which stems from the arrest Sunday of a bi-racial group which tried to attend services at a white church. The 12-member group includ ed four ministers from Chica go. Three of the 12 were con victed of trespassing and inter fering with worship by a Jack son court and fined $1,000 each. Cox has been asked to over turn these convictions. Another group of civil rights crusaders also appealed Thurs day to the federal courts to take jurisdiction in their case. Eleven "freedom riders," in cluding Yale University Chap lain William Slaon Coffin Jr., asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn their conviction for breach of the peace. The group of Negroes and whites was convicted last year while attempting to eat togeth er in a bus terminal at Mont gomery, Ala. In Louisiana, there also is a dispute brewing over whether state or federal authorities should have jurisdiction in a civil rights case. Louisiana District Judge John R. Rarick Thursday added an other 10 days to his order ban ning the Congress of Racial Equality from demonstrating in Clinton, La., despite a federal Appeals Court decision ordering him to halt all proceedings against the organization. The Appeals Court said the proceedings should be halted until it had time to determine whether the case should be un der federal jurisdiction. But Rarick said the Appeals Court order "is without war rant in law" and extended his injunction against the Integra tionist organization.
