Pvtmoui fVfurn Prmentj 'mm mum Jeowicoior WEDNESDAY! seesee tft.v-i:yi3 SHSE THE INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED NIT JUNTAS IT WAS SHOWN IN THE MAJOR CAPITALS OFTHEWORLDI WASHINGTON (UPI) - When Negro civil rights demonstrators stage their planned mass rally in Washington next month, an aging band of World War I veterans will be retelling the story of an other march on the capital and its tear gas, gunfire and death climax. The storytellers will be the remnants of the soldiers' bonus march, a Depression-spawned in cident that rocked President Her bert Hoover's administration in the spring and summer of 1932. Most of the civil rights dem onstrators will arrive in tho capi tal by chartered bus and train on Aug. 28. Their leaders have promised an orderly "controlled" rally, in sharp contrast to what happened in 1932. Authorities hope that such will be the case. Most of the bonus marchers hopped freight trains or hitch hiked to Washington. At best their leadership was confused their march more tragic than effective, The well-spring for the so-! called bonus expeditionary force was' Portland, Ore. The man behind it: Walter W. Waters, a onetime Army sergeant and fac' lory worker idled by the Great Depression. Waters idea was simple! He and some 300 other former "Doughboys" would stage a pro-. test march on the Capitol in hopes of pressuring Congress into! approving a bill calling for im mediate payment of a soldier bonus. Congress Approves Bonus The bonus itself had been an proved by Congress in 1924. When the Depression hit, the veterans had -been allowed to borrow up; to 50 per cent of what was due them, but the rest was not pay able until 1945. The bonus march crs wanted the money then, but the Hoover administration was opposed, believing it nothing more than a raid on the TroaS' ury that would further unbalance the budget. When Waters band moved out of Portland in May, 1932. word of the march began spreading across the nation. Others were quick to join. They came in pairs and in groups of hundreds. Some brought their wives and, families. It was a spontaneous thing with little in the way of an organized campaign to recruit marchers. The only real bonds the men had in common was a frustration over their inability to find work, and a belief that they had a right to a bonus. Once in Washington, tho men squatted. They took over empty buildings along Pennsylvania Ave. and set up sprawling camps along the mud flats of the Ana-Lup costia River. Day by day, more recruits arrived until their strength, counting women and children, reached a high of 20,- 000. . Conditions in the camps' were intolerable. Whole families lived in cars. Huts were built out of scraps from garbage dumps. One man lived in a barrel filled with grass. To make matters worse, Communist organizers began in filtrating the camps. For the most part, Congress and the administration wanted the bonus army out of the capi tal. They rightly feared that it would touch off riots; that its cause was a hopeless one. Stage "Death March" By July 17, thousands of dem onstrators were staging a "death march around the Capitol as! Congress moved toward adjourn- ment. An attempt to meet with the President was rejected, and Vice President Curtis threat cned to use force to push the bonus marchers off Capitol Hill. Thus the stage was set for trou-l ble and it came on the morning of July 28. At 10 a.m. police ringed group of empty buildings along Pennsylvania Ave. under orders to drive out bonus marchers who had been using them as squat ter shacks. A fight broke out. Police fired into the rioters, kill ing two of them, and the call went out for troops. The troops entered the city ODD COMBINATION LONDON (UPII - The Daily Telegraph reported today that a tall Coldstream Guardsman was seen riding down a subway esca lator with a battered suitcase in one hand and a four-foot dead crocodile in the other. JFK Seeks New Limit On Debt .via WASHINGTON (UPII The Kennedy administration soon will ask Congress to boost the legal limit on the national debt to a new record high. Informants said the administra tion' would insist that the debt limit must be set at, or slightly less than. (315 billion to accom modate the red-ink spending in prospect for the fiscal year end ing next June 30. Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon told Congress in February the administration might need a debt ceiling of about 320 billion. However, tax revenues have im proved since then as a result of a pick up in business conditions. The House Ways & Means Com mittee will interrupt work o n President Kennedy's tax - reduc- tion-and-rcvision program to con sider the debt limit request at public hearings starting next Monday. A new debt ceiling must be es tablished next month. The debt limit now is $309 billion. It is scheduled to drop to $285 billion on Sept. 1. Everyone agrees this cannot be permitted, since the actual debt will be considerably higher than that. The debt now stands at about from nearby Ft. Mycr, Va. In- $306 billion and is heading higher. fantry, tanks, and cavalry took The debt is certain to rise in the stations along Pennsylvania Ave. under the command of Chief of Stalf Douglas Mac-Arthur. A then obscure Col. Dwight D. Ei senhower was second in command. The troops moved down Pcnn-i sylvania Ave., clearing the bonus marchers out of their shanties. Some holdouts were burned by the marchers themselves. Others were set ablaze by the troops. As the soldiers kept up the pressure, they were answeredl with barrages of rocks and clubs, Tear gas was fired in return. Wives and children were caught in the melee as the soldiers tried to herd the marchers out of the area. Burn Shanties Once Pennsylvania Ave. was1 cleared, the troops moved across! the Anacostia Itiver Bridge and Into the camps along the river, burning the shanties as they went, along with what belong ings the veterans left behind. Once the camps were fired, thousands of stragglers fled into! Maryland. State officials kept them moving to the Pennsylvania stute line and Johnstown, Pa where they had sanctuary. : In Johnstown, the marchers set up another camp, but their stay was short-lived.. Disorganized and breaking up, the remaining band accepted an offer from the Bal timore & Ohio Railroad for free transportation that took them back to tho obscurity from which they had sprung two months, be-i ore. The marchers took no victories home with them, but four years later Congress did pass the sol diers bonus bill. Washington authorities are hop ing devoutly that the impending! Negro demonstration will bring! no reminders of 1932. " ITTOTT I ;l I -if- V- - r"5 pg2L?m f. r it ,1 f " - - ijiTcmn viciAic r.nm bi ate n..

The 63-year-old actor who gained fame with his rugged Irish charm was first thought to have suffered a heart attack, but Tracy's phy sician Dr. Karl Lewis, indicated Ihc actor had only a minor res piratory ailment. "Mr. Tracy suffered a little con gestion of the lungs and develop, ed .shortness of breathing," the physician said at St. Vincent's Hospital where the silver-haired actor was taken. "He is recover ing, improving and feeling fine." Tracy was taken to the hospital by ambulance from Miss Hep burn's rented Malibu Beach home 25 miles northwest of here where he suffered the attack., Weather Roundup Cardinal Yaleri Hill, l.i- lumnoratm oc anA .

The debt limit is almost cer tain to provide another partisan struggle on the House floor. Ear lier this year, administration forces managed by a scant nine vote margin to win passage over GOP opposition of the temporary $309 billion limit. In an attempt to lessen opposi tion, Democratic strategists plan to schedule the new debt limit bill for House floor action ahead of the tax cut bill. The argument will be made that should the House refuse to set the debt limit high, enough to accommo date a tax cut, there will be no tax reduction.
