Views Differ On Nikita's Berlin Trip By MERRIMAN SMITH : '. UPI White Houm Reporter : B1KCH GROVE, England (UPI : There are some interesting the ories in the White House enlour age on why Soviet Premier Ni' kifa S. Khrushchev suddenly de cided to show up in East Berlin gus weekend. . According U diplomatic gossip picked up in Berlin, Khrushchev 5'jme time ago had given highly nihlative word he would come to Kast Germany to observe the birthday this weekend of Walter Irjhricht, the puppet .boss of the territory. .Khrushchev became increasing Iv interested in the impact of President Kennedy on Uie people of West Germany where the crwds seemed to grow with each succeeding appearance. This, according to some ed ucated observers o.' the East German scene in Berlin, led Khrushchev to take his tentative plans out of mothballs suddenly and announce to the world he was bound for East Berlin. Misplayed Kennedy's Visit American officials felt the, East Germans and their Russians ad visers misplayed Kennedy's visit tn the Berlin Wall rather badly. The East Germans did behave rather immaturely, if such polite phrase might be applied in tins instance. ' They hung huge swathes of red bunting between the columns of Che Brandenberg Gate so the President could not see inside (he promised land of commu nism. Before the Gate, the Com jftlunists erected two large signs denouncing the West for not liv ing up to the piedges of Yalta and Potsdam. VjThe East Germans started to drape similar sheets of bunting across the background at Check point Charlie, another point on the Wall which Kennedy visited. This plan was dropped, however, in favor of more buge signs. These did not prevent Kennedy from peering into East Germany r6m a raised observation plat form. '. Whon the presidential tour of the Wall ended, one Western dip lomat heaved a sigh of relief. '. Ne Imagination "-VThe Reds have nolmagina- hon," he said. "They could have created one hell of a situation at Checkpoint Charlie if they only uipiiglK it through. ni hi in I PAGE S--A HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon Sunday, June 30, 1963 l I Mississippi Planning Hearing On Race Riots JACKSON.

IS""1"' Rights Issue Up To GOP By United Press International Two Negro leaders have indi cated that the fate of President Kennedy's civil rights legislation rests in the hands of Republicans: Integration leader Martin Lu ther King Jr. said at Norfolk. Va.. that if the program is defeated 'we can blame certain sections ol the Republican party.. .only t h c Republicans can save it. In Washington. Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, D-N.Y., said He publicans will defeat Kennedy's public accommodation bill unless it is watered down. In its present form, the measure which would force desegregation of privately owned business establishments, doesn't stand a chance, the Ne gro congressman said. The stage was set at bavan nah. Ga., today for a resumption of racial demonstrations following a truce period this week for talks among Negro leaders and city of ficials. Negroes have demanded the release of six jailed demon strators or they will start dem onstrating again. The city has re' fused. Attorneys for 200 jailed Negroes at Gadsden, Ala., Friday asked that a court injunction against demonstrations be dismissed and charges against the prisoners dropped. The Alabama Circuit Court recessed until Monday with out acting on the motion. Elsewhere in the nation: New York Tlie National Coun cil of Churches announced a drive to eliminate racial discrimination in the hiring of workers on Prot estant church construction proj ects. This would he achieved, a council commission said, through the action ol national church groups that finance tlie projects At the same time, a Prcsbvtcrian group said members of that church would start participating directly in civil rights demonstra tions throughout the city. Oxford. Miss. The Justice De partment asked in a suit Friday for the release of 45 .Negroes ar rested on breach of peace charges in LcKlorc County. Tlie suit said the charges filed in connection with a march by Negroes were unjustified. Mpntgomepv. Ala. Gov. George Wallace said Friday he would make a "forceful stand at any public scnool in Manama earmarked for integration. He did not elaborate. Tuscaloosa. Ala. Negro stu dent James Hood of tlie Univer sity of Alabama said he was not against all racial demonstrations, just those which lead to violence. He said his earlier statements ap parently were misconstrued to place him against any form of protest demonstration. Henderson, N.C. Negro pick ets paraded, in downtown Hender son Friday in a peaceful antiseg- regation protest. LflneVn. N.C. Three Negro youths will stand trial in connec tion with the June 6 race riot here in which one white man was killed and another wounded. Da vidson County Court Judge Char les E. Williams Jr. bound the trio over to the Aug. 19 term of Davidson County Superior Court Friday. Columbus. Ga. The newly formed youth council of the Na tional Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People iNAACPi has lashed back at statement made by seven Negro ministers protesting the appear ance of niitsltle integration cm- tlie state Sovereignly Commis sion. Tlie commission is headed by Gov. Ross Barnett. who phy sically barred Meredith from the school on several occasions. The sovereignty group adopted a resolution recommending puni tive action "be taken immediate ly against James Meredith" if it was found his recent statements concerning segregation violated a directive by the chancellor of the university forbidding students to say or do anything that would add to racial tensions. Meredith is due to speak at the National Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People iNAACPi convention, opening in Chicago Monday. The South s racial fronts were quiet in advance of tlie meeting and at least one leader Charles Evers, brother of slain intcgra tionist. Mcdgar Evers indicated the NAACP would hold off furth er demonstrations in Jackson un til after the convention. However, the Negro leadership in Jackson has been disorganized since the death of Aledgar Evers and there was the possibility that leaders from other intcgrationist groups might jump the gun on the NAACP in organizing new demonstrations. A hint of this came Friday when a Negro delegation met with Jackson Mayor Allen Thompson and was told that the city had no intention of desegre gating its parks and other recre ational facilities unless ordered to do so by a federal court. The delegation asked the mayor whether Negro children "planning to go to tlie parks on the Fourth of July" would be arrested. The mayor did not directly an swer the question but made clear the city was not planning to,per mit any integration. One of the Negro spokesmen then told the mayor that unless some concessions were made Ne gro leaders were not sure they could further restrain their peo ple, things that seem quiet now may not always be," the Negro spokesman said.
