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.

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.
