Negro Baseball Star Rejected As Neighbor By SF Residents SAN KP.ANCISCO Ml Willie; Mays' attempt to buy a home here failed Wednesday because he is a Megro. The spectacular 27-yoar-old San Francisco Giants centerfielder of fored the $37,500 the owner asked for a new house at 17S Miraloma Lr.,-but was turned down after a wait of several days. The owner said there was great neighborhood pressure against the deal. Walter A. Gnesdiloff, who Is still offering the house at the same price but not to Mays- said: "I'm just a union working man and I'd never get another job if I sold tins house to that baseball player. I feel sorry' for him, and if the neighbors say it would be okay, I'd do it." Gnesdiloff, a small-scale build er and contractor in the upper middle class area, said two prop erty owners he works for put pres sure on him not to sell to Mays and neighbors objected by tele phone. "I've never been through this kind of stuff and I'm not even mad about it now," the normally ex uberant "say hoy kid" said Wednesday night. "I'd sure like to live In San Francisco, but I didn't want to make an issue about it. "I figure if a guy has his own problems he's got to lick them Auto Wrecks Claim Three By TIIK ASSOCIATED PRESS Two Oregon highway accidents killed three men Wednesday night. a southbound station wagon sped hcadon into a loaded logging truck about 12 miles south of Itoseburg on the Pacific Highway, The two occupants of the lighter vehicle died.

"But talk about a thing like this goes all over the world, and it sure looks bad for our country." Mays' wife, Margliuerite, wasn't quite as philosophical about it. Down in Alabama where we come from," she said, "you know your place, and that's something, at least. But up here it's all a lot of camouflage. They grin in your face and then deceive you." Mayor ucoree Christopher de clared, "what's happened is not in accordance with San Francis co's traditions." The mayor said "it's not our practice to preclude anyone's liv ing where he wants to. regard less of his race." But he pointed out that! "on the other hand, no law requires an owner to dispose 01 nis property. one 01 me property owners Gnesdiloff said he worked for, Martin Gnewhiler of 148 Miraloma Dr., said "certainly I objected" to the sale. 'I happen to have cuite a few pieces of property in that area and J stand to lose a lot if .col ored people move in." Gaewhiler denied that Gnesrii- loff had ever worked for him and said he didn't force the contract or to do anything. "I told him to use his own conscience, but that he'd get a bad name if he went through with this." The property owner added. "I certainly wouldn't like to have a colored family near me." Edward Howden. director of the Council for Civic Unity, comment ed: The shocking rejection of Mr nnd Mrs. Willie Mays as neiah bors by a handful of Miraloma Drive residents is nothing less man a civic disgrace. ltceret tably it is typical of practices in a large portion of the private nousing marxet today. Printed Pattern 1 U.S. Foreign Policy Hit By Speaker United States foreign policy re garding the newly formed countries of Africa and Asia is vague and in effective. Dr. Haridas T. Muzum dar told the Klamath Knife and Fork Club dinner meeting Wednes day night at the Willard Hotel. Muzumdar offered no concrete solutions to these inadequacies, but acknowledged their existence and said that one of our main difficul ties is that the world does not urderstand our foreign policy. . The doctor is a self-avowed friend and biographer of Mahatma Ghandi and is now on leave from Cornell University. He also said that the "vocal element" of the East favors the Soviet Union be cause it has stated that it was against "imperialism and foreign domination." 'The U.S. has never asserted it self as being for the masses of India to overthrow British rule." said the man whose topic was India. Asia and the United States." "Nowhere in cither Democratic or Republican platforms has there ever been any mention that we were in favor of self-government -for India." He said that is the reason the intelligensia of the East tends to be pro-Russian. "Where we offer nothing." he said, "the Russians have at least given the people some tangible evidence of sympathy. "After World War II, when we had a chance to promote goodwill and understanding in the Middle East, what did we do but allow the British to go back to Malaya, the French to Indochina and the Dutch to Indonesia, and even sent the French one million dollars in military supplies per month to keep the lndochinese under domina tion." One bright spot that has appeared in our foreign policy, according to Muzumdar, is the selling of Amer ica to the Philippines by our school teachers. In the Philippines, he said, "Our school teachers did a good job." He staled that we are missing many opportunities to sell tiie rest of the world on what America real ly means. He said that we should not underestimate the power of private enterprise in its endeavor to sell Americanism. "On two days a year we should keep our embassies open and invite the people of foreign lands to break bread with us. Those two days are the Fourth of July and Thanksgiv ing." The doctor explained that when lie was in Turkey on the Fourth of July the embassy was closed and he opined that this would have been an excellent opportunity to keep our doors open to show these people what we are and what is meant by America. He concluded by saying that self- government is not the sole privi lege of the U.S. and European peoples alone and that if we are to help these peoples and tell them about ourselves, we must clarify both our foreign policy and our motives to the world.
