MARDEIl I nilril I'rcss International WASHINGTON (UPI) - Two of the nation's great are gird ing for Ihe battle of Ihe cen tury on civil rights. On collision course with ap parently no way to avoid com bat are two close friends and former colleagues, both giants of men from the South: President Lyndon Baincs John son of Texas, who became chief of state because of an assas sin's bullet, and Sen. Richard Brevard Russell of Georgia, who might have become presi dent except for his southern birth. It will be almost like brother against brother. For the two men are remarkably alike ex cept for one thing: Russell is dedicated to the South's right to keep separate the Negro and while races Bellview Annexation Discussed at City Council Meeting without interference from the federal government. Johnson is equally dedicated to whatever federal action is re quired to end all racial discrim ination in the nation. The clashing devotions are so deeply entrenched, philosophi cally and politically, that no quarter can be expected in the battle lo come. Great Talcnls The action will be joined in late winter or early spring when the Senate fulfills its date with destiny on civil rights leg islation, i Both men will bring acknowl edged grca,t lal.. its to Ihe field of battle. Russell is "Mr. South" in the Senate. He is the leader of the southern forces which will try lo argue the Senate out of the most drastic civil rights bill in history. If arguments fail. Russell will try lo talk it lo death. He is the organizer of a three-platoon system by which outnumbered southern senators seek to pre vnl civil rights bills from com ing to a vole. The southerners arc divided in three platoons of six men each. Two men of each team arc on the floor al all times to carry on the debate while others gather their strength at nearby hideaways. There is nothing parochial about Russell, except civil rights. His interests range far beyond the South and its prob lems. He has served in the Sen ate since Jan. 12. 1933, is topped in seniority by only Sen. Carl Haydcn, D-Ariz. Russell's prestige and influence in the Senate are unmatched. Perhaps no greater tribute to Russell's talents has been made than the one which came, un solicited with these words: "If Russell had been from Indiana or Missouri or Kentucky, he may very well have been presi dent of the United State s." Those words came from former President Harry S Truman, who had his differences with Rus sell, also on civil rights. Clash In Past Twice before, Johnson and Russell have clashed on the same field of controversy civil rights. The years were 1957 and 19(i0 ; when both were in the Senate. I j Both times, Ihe Senate passed civil rights bills under John-1 ' son's guidance and over Rus-1 j sell's opposition. But even today it is difficult to say who won and who lost, if there was a winner and loser, j The final products were not what the civil rights liberals I wanted: nor was il what the I southerners would have liked to have seen. Those who are close lo the civil rights battle say the past has few lessons to apply to the present. The 1937 and 10 contests were merely skirmish es for the decisive battle now in the making. Those earlier skirmishes involved primarily voting a basic polilical riuhl. The civil rights arena now en folds almost the whole area of human conduct. S&H Green Sumpi MEDFORD FUEL CO.

Main 773 4541 ASHLAND -The Bellview an ncxation problem again took the center of the stage at the Ashland City Council meeting Tuesday night. The subject was re-introduced when Councilman Duane Baker, chairman of a special annexa tion study committee appointed by Mayor Kichard Neill, gave a report. He said his c o m m i 1 1 c c is studying what costs there would be in special assessments and increased taxes and that il also conducting research m preparation for a formal recommendation to the council. A council plan lo provide wa ter to Bellview residents on properly adjoining the city then came under fire from three resi dents of Ihe area who were present, Chester Squire, Harry Hawk and Ed Singmastcr. Facilities Inadequate The men declared that sani tary facilities in the Bellview area are "inadequate" and that Ihe council's water service ordi nance would prove unsalislac-torv. The council proposed at its Dee. :i meeting to adopt an ordi nance which would allow hook ups for cxisling single - family residences where a water main has already been installed, at a cost of $230. Each unauthorized hookup which now exists would have In be paid for al the same rate. The proposed ordinance would be only temporary, argued the three Bellview residents, they also thought It would he dis criminatory in that it would ot ter no connections for homes not now built, thereby "stunting future development" ot Ihe area. Singmastcr asked lhal the cilv "lav out a long range plan so that present and future prop erly owners may know what to expect and adjust themselves to it." What Sluilv Is Doing The mayor replied, "That is exactly what this present study is doing. It may he that an election will be required in the area and also in the city." Discussion of fire protection and water services followed, and it continued when City At torney Harry Skerry presented the first reading of the proposed ordinance for Bellview water connections. In an effort lo clarify terms to protect both the city and the water users, the council decided to refer the ordinance to its water committee for study and a recommendation to be made at Ihe Jan. 7 meeting. In other matters Councilman Emmctt Whitham, realty com mittee chairman, reported on the recommendation by the park hoard that the city purchase the Meadows properly, 3.9 acres along Ashland Creek. The park board has nn option on a small er adjacent property which it expects to buy. The two pieces would complete Lithia Pork up to the lower reservoir. Appraisal of the Meadows property was voted. Properly Sale Discussed Also reporting for the really committee, Whitham said there had been a meeting with the YMCA board to discuss sale of the 2'4-acre city - owned land adjacent lo Walker school for YMCA building, livcnmaliy the Y would like the remaining S acres for handball courts and oilier recreational facilities. Question on the legality of such sale was raised and the cily attorney was asked lo re search Ihe conditions. Councilman Don Lewis re ported that applications for an assistant to City hupcrintcndent Elmer Biegcl are being received and that several ads have been placed in magazines. Objection was voiced lo use ot the term "assistant city man ager," and that resulted in a change of wording to "assistant cily administrator." Biegel is nearing retirement as superin tendent and a successor is being sought.
