v PAGE 2 A HERALD AN'D KEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 14. 1953 Capsule Roundup Given Of Integration Events By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The governors of Arkansas and Virginia have ordered some schools closed in their states in the wake ol the U.S. Supreme Court decision that integration must proceed immediately at Lit tle Rock s Central High School. The closure orders came only a Jew hours after the unanimous de cision of the high tribunal in Washington F riday. At Newport. R.I., President Ei senhower issued a statement warning that anarchy might re sult from defiance of the court's Constitution integration stand, lie urged the people to avoid it. Gov. Orval E. Faubus of Arkan sas signed recently passed laws authorising him to close four sen ior high schools including Central and a .Negro school in Little Rock. The schools had been sched uled to open Monday. Shortly alterward, a sheriff served the governor with a sum mons to appear in court in a suit challenging the school-closing law. The suit was brought by a woman segregationist opposed to the school shutdown. Faubus said he issued the shut down order to avoid "impending , violence and disorder." He also set Oct. 7 as the date for a special election on the question of mte grating the schools. In Virginia. Gov. J. Lindsay Al mond Jr. announced the closing of Front Royal High School in Warren County, effective Monday It will be the first school to shut down under the slate's plan of massive resistance to desegrega tion. The Virginia plan calls for the closing of any school that has been Integrated. Laws calling for the closing of the schools in the face of integra tion orders have been passed by many states in the Deep South, and officials in those states were expected to keep a close watch on what happens in Virginia. Reactions to the Supreme Court's ruling were prompt and conflicting. Georgia's Sen. Richard B. Rus sell, one of the southern Demo cratic leaders, said "A great na tional tragedy impends." He de clared the South's white citizens are law-abiding but Ihey won't "surrender to the dictates of the .National Assn. for the Advance ment of Colored People merely be cause that organiza' on is able to use the present cme Court as its mouthpiece." Sen. Strom Thurmond 'D-SO said "The court's decision is quite in keeping with the court's record of putting the interests of Com munists and other criminals ahead of the court's duty to sustain the Roy Wilkins. ' executive secre tary of the NAACP. praised the court ruling as a bulwark of basic human rights. In Little Rock. Mrs L. C. Bates. XaACP Arkansas director, was asked what she thought of the gov ernor's action in ordering the schools closed. "The Negro children will just have to wait like the rest of the children until the schools are opened." she said. Richard C. Butler, the attorney who represented the Little Rock School Board before the Supreme Court, returned to Little Rock and was asked by a newsman "Where do you go from here?" He quiped. "Well, I suppose to (he United Nations isn't that the only place left." Mishap Told At Test Site On)y a few left! The Lost of the '58 OLDS Must be sold by Sept. 25 COME IN FOR A REAL DEAL! Dick B.

No other details of the explosion were given. The ALC said it was confident no measurable airborne radiation was carried from the site. The AEC also said the first full scale test in the final phase of the 1958 series a low yield balloon shot has been postponed from Tuesday to Thursday next week. "DENNIS THE MENACE" 'THgCWWe JAR r3 EMPTY Debbie To File Divorce; 'Ideal' Marriage Tumbled HOLLYWOOD (UPD Actress Debbie Reynolds probably will file for divorce from singer Eddie Fisher next week and no one will be spared in the court action, including actress Elizabeth Taylor. Hollywood's "ideal marriage" tumbled to earth after three years of ballyhooed publicity Friday with statements by Eddie and Debbie and the straight talk of a lawyer The coup de grace was delivered by the uti-year-old actress's law yer, Frank B. Belcher, who was the first to mention divorce pub hcly. He said a suit would be filed "probably next week" and that Miss Reynolds would file it noi r isner. Asked if actress Elizabeth Tay lor. 25-ycar-old mother of three children and veteran of three marriages, would be named co respondent, Belcher said: '1 m not going to spare anyone if it is necessary to protect the rights of Debbie and her two fine children."

Miss Reynolds in her answering statement to Fisher's said: Board Ruling Is Reversed CARO, Mich. (API It's all right a judge says so for 17-year-old Edward Curtis and his bride, Bar bara, also 17. to go back to Caro High School. Circuit Judge Timothy C.

Manned Orb Seen Likely WASHINGTON (AP)-An Army plan for constructing a super booster rocket engine is arousing speculation the Pentagon may be contemplating an attempt to put a manned satellite in orbit. The speculation was sparked Friday with a Defense Depart-; ment announcement of a two-, million-dollar Army contract award for a mammoth booster! with an aim of "placing very large payloads into orbit." j The announcement, however, gave no further indication of the type of satellite being planned for ; launching by the new booster. The booster, missilemen's term for the first stage of a multistage rocket, will have a thrust of l'j million pounds approximately! eight times more powerful than any existing propulsion unit in Amnrira'e rrtl-el arcangl ! ,u i-i "urNcr '3! The contract was awarded to the Klamath Basin was discussed Nortn Amerjca1 Aviation's Rock- "It seems unbelievable to say that you can live happily with a man and not know that he doesn't love you. But that as God is my witness is the truth "We had marital differences in the beginning as most couples do. but for the past one and a half years I had truly believed that we had found our happiness I know I had. I now realize when you are deeply in love how blind one can be. Obviously, I was. I will en deavor to use all my strength to survive and understand for the benefit of my two children (Car rie. 2, and Todd, 7 months). The couple, who separated Wednesday shortly after Fisher returned from New York where he had been publicly squiring Miss Taylor, was to appear in a Hollywood Bowl benefit program tonight. Miss Reynolds said she would "go on with the show." Fisher, while not saying definite ly, indicated he would bow out of the program. YMCA Group Hears Talk Democrat, GOP Chairmen Square Off In Oral Blasis KANSAS CITY 'API Demo cratic National Chairman Paul Butler said Friday night: "I do not believe that open defiance of the law of the land as interpreted by the Supreme Court represents the opinion of the majority of Democrats." The statement came during shouted exchange between Butler and the Republican national chair' man. Meade Alcorn, who forecast a third party in the 1060 elections The two were members of a question and answer panel at the annual Griddle Show of the Kan sas City Press Club. Here was the sequence: Butler addressing Alcorn "I see by the papers that you were in Little Rock just before you came here. Did you have anything to say about integration while you were down there? Alcorn: "I'll say one thing, Mr. Butler. I can make the same speech in Little Rock as I can in Chicago and that's more than you can do. Have you been in Little Rock lately?" Butler said he did not plan to go to Little Rock and did not sub scribe to the views expressed by Gov. Orval E. Faubus of Arkan sas, also a Democrat. He said he did not believe a vast majority of Democrats supported a man who openly flouted the law of the land." Alcorn: I II say we are going to face a much weakened Demo crat party in the I960 elections and a third party . . . made up of southern conservatives who will leave the Democrats at the open p-Ti i i ; during the September 10 luncheon meeting of the Interagency Coun cil at the YMCA with phases of the problem brought out by speak ers from local agencies assisting with the migrant worker. Virginia Dixon, executive direc tor of the- Klamath Basin Red Cross Chapter, was in charge of the program outlining the problem. Julia Brown. Klamath Countv Welfare Department; Julius Giun- loni, Oregon State Employment Service: Capt. M. Lewis Kendoll. commander of the Salvation Army, and John Pederson. superintendent of the Klamath Falls Gospel Mis sion, spoke. The discussion brought out that the average migrant worker com ing to the Klamath Basin, includ ing families and single men. seek employment and have no legal res idence. The Oregon Public Welfare pro ram under a general assistance program provides food, shelter, fuel and medical needs for fami lies in emergencies. In lr5 this service was given to 28 families. Klamath County topped all other counties in the state in numbers etdyne Division. Supervision of the high priority project was assigned to the Army's Ballistic Missile Agency. The announcement of the Army contract said the superbooster will consist of a cluster of already tested rocket motors packaged in to a single unit. The chief element will be a mo tor similar to that used in inter mediate and intercontinental ranee ballistic missiles such as the . Army Jupiter and the Air Force1 Thor and Atlas. PENDLETON. Ore.

Another heated exchange took place when a questioner said: "Mr. Butler, we see that in New York State the Republicans have matched you millionaire for mil lionaire. How much longer are you going to try and kid the peo ple yours is the party of the com mon man?" Butler: "The Republicans are simply trying to match Averell Harriman (in the race for gover nor) with a millionaire, Nelson Rockefeller. There is nothing in the fact that some Democrats have considerable money. They still support government for all the people. They don't represent special interests like the Republicans." Alcorn: "Well, at least we're not subject to the will of the labor bosses. No labor man like Walter Reuther (president of the United Auto Workers Union) can come into our convention and tell the delegates what they can do or can not do." Ex-Governor Suffers Ills f SALEM, Ore. (AP) Former Gov. Douglas McKay is suffering from pneumonitis, a "patchy form of pneumonia," his physician said Friday night. There also appears to be evi dence of stress or strain on the heart of the former Secretary of the Interior, said the doctor, who refused use of his name. The report gave the findings of a week of tests into the illness of McKay, who entered a hospital here last Saturday. The report added: : The heart strain may be related to the form of pneumonia, but there is no evidence of a coronary attack. At present, McKay was high blood pressure and is running a temperature. Otherwise, he is res ponding well to treatment, and should be released from the hos pital in a week. The 65 year-old McKay now is head of the United States Section of the International Joint Com mission, which is seeking to re solve water disputes between thi country and Canada.
