Newspaper Page TextPAGE S A Sunday. Aupisl 11, 1963 HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon ANOTHER BIRTHDAY Former President Herbert Hoover celebrated his 89th Birthday Saturday in his Man hattan skyscraper apartment with more anniversary cards than he can count. It has been the custom in the past for Hoover to meet with the press on the eve of his birthday. But this year his doctors advised him against this as he is still recovering from an ailment suffered in June. Hoover still works at his desk each day and is now writing a history of the past 30 years. UPI Telephoto Strife Continues In Racial Marches By United Press International A top Negro integration leader was free on $15,000 bond today after 30 days in jail. Hosea Williams, 37-year-old Sa vannah, Ga., Negro, was released when two other Negroes put up 11 pieces of property for his bond. Seventy other integrationists ar rested with Williams remained in jail. "I do not believe any more demonstrations will be necessary in Savannah," Williams said. He declined to comment on reports an agreement had been reached in the port city to settle the in tegration dispute. Williams had been arrested on several peace warrants based on a law going back to the 1800s. Authorities in Farmville, Va., braced for a possible mass pro test march by Negroes who were refused a parade permit for Sat urdaymajor market day in the town. Have Daily Marches Negroes have demonstrated al most daily in Farmville since July 25. A federal grand jury in Macon. Ga., Friday indicted three civil rights leaders of Albany. Ga., on charges they manipulated a boy cott against a white grocer in the Negro section of town, who had voted against a Negro in a racial trial. The three were charged with executing a conspiracy, and six other integrationists in the so called Albany Movement were charged with perjury. The grocer, Carl Smith, went out of business as a result of the boycott and sold his business to a Negro. In Americus, Negro leaders said about 250 demonstrators marched on the city jail Friday night to protest alleged rough treatment of a number of inte grationists arrested earlier. About 50 persons were arrested before the march was broken up, the leaders said. Americus police and Mayor Griffin Walker would make no comment on the situation. Asked Investigation Earlier the Negroes asked the U. S. Department of Justice to investigate a complaint that Americus police beat one Negro and fired 15 shots over the heads of a crowd which had gathered for a rally. In Elizabeth, N.J., a teen-age Eirl was injured when police and demonstrators tangled in a melee at a courthouse construction site. One rambuctious demonstrator was handcuffed to a fence. Trouble erupted when 13 clergy men joined forces with the dem onstrators who are asking for equal job opportunities at the building site. At one point, a group of men women and children encircled a truck carrying equipment onto the site. Other integration developments: BELLE CHASSE, La. Lean- dcr H. Perez, a local leading seg regationist and politician, or dered military personnel from a nearby base to stay out of the town's public accommodations, and barred servicemen's children from the county schools. WASHINGTON Rep. George Andrews, D-Ala., introduced a resolution in Congress authorizing an investigation of charges that the panels of the 5th U. S. Cir cuit Court of Appeals have been rigged on school desegregation cases. LOS ANGELES Vice Presi dent Lyndon Johnson told a luncheon meeting of leaders of the Mexican-American commun ity: "We have passed the point in telling people to be patient. We must solve the problem of discrimination for all minorities and must do it now." H. Hoover Observes Birthday NEW YORK (ITU - Ailing former President Herbert C. Hoo ver celebrated the 89th anniver sary of his birth Saturday with a lew close relatives and friends. Hoover, instead of holding his traditional birthday eve news conference, issued a brief mes sage to fellow Americans from his skyscraper apartment in Manhattan. It said, in part: "We have a great way of life- let's keep it that way.1' Birthday cards and sprays of flowers, some taller than Hoo ver's favorite fishing rod adorned tables, cabinets and the mantlepiece in tlie sitting room of his apartment in the Waldorf Towers. In Washington, for the second straight year. Sen. Carl T. Cur tis, R-Neb., paid a special tribute to Hoover in the Senate Friday for his "exemplary life." The 31st president, a Republi can who served in the White House from 1929 to 1932, was critically ill with a gastrointes tinal disorder for several days last June. Since then, his physicians said Hoover "has become stronger and is able to work at his desk for a short period each day. The number of his visitors still is lim ited, and. . .it is advisable that he should not assume any public obligations at the present time." One of Hoover's aides said he worked steadily on his "magnum opus, a history of the past 30 years designed for publication in several volumes. He recently completed a book on fishing, his favorite sport. Tlie former chief executive was born in West Branch, Iowa, on Aug. 10, 1874. His parents died when he was a youngster and he went to live with relatives Oregon. AJter graduating from Stanford University, Hoover worked as mining engineer and then, during World War I, began his long ca reer in government as an admin istrator of relief funds and goods Known Total In London Robbery Reaches Seven Million LONDON (L'PI Tlie incredi-ly J7.25 million dollars Saturday. ble loot from Britain's "great There was no sign liolice were train robbery" theft in history biggest cash - soared to near Weekend RR Session Set WASHINGTON (UPI) - Gov ernment mediators scheduled weekend meetings in an effort to settle the deadlocked railroad work rules dispute.

Reason: It expects Congress to make a sharp cut, effective next Jan. 1, in the taxes levied on the sale from stocks, houses and other property. The tax release was approved Friday by the House Ways & Means Committee for inclusion in the tax revision and reduction bill it is drafting. The tax saving ranging from 16 to 20 per cent would apply only to the sale of property held by the owner for at least t w o years. Although the legislation ulti mately would lose almost $100 million a year in annual revenue. the Treasury said the immediate result would be a soiling spree that would boost Treasury tax revenues next year by more than $300 million. These revenue forecasts and the computation of the 16 to 20 per cent range in tax savings- were based solely on the commit tee's action in approving revision in the formula (or taxing capital gains. They assume that individ ual tax rates to which the for mula is linked will remain at existing levels. But an across-the-board cut in individual tax rates is the prime ingredient of the administration- backed tax bill which the com mittee is drafting. The committee plans to add this final ingredient next week in wrapping up a tax package that is expected to provide net tax savings of close to $10 billion for individuals and corporations two annual stops starting next Jan. 1. Child Dead In Mishap In Saigon SAIGON, South Vict Nam il'Pl' The U.S. Army Saturday inves tigated the killing of a V ietnamese child by an American helicopter iunner whose machine gun ac cidenLally was triggered by an en tangled comunications cord. A U. S. military spokesman said the offense could lead to court martial, but he indicated this was not likely. The gunner, whose identity was withheld, was hospitalized with shock, tlie spokesman said. The accidental strafing in a strategic hamlet north of Saigon also wounded four other persons. None was in critical condition. The strafing took place Thurs day as the villagers were prepar- tor ceremonies Friday m which the hamlet was named aft er outgoing U. S. Ambassador Frederick Nolting Jr. Nolting soon will be replaced by Henry Cabot Lodge. Another unfortunate accident re lated to the ceremony happened Friday morning when a Vietna mese girl was struck and injured by a jeep. U. S. military officials said the jeep belonged to the Viet namese army. The shooting incident occurred as the U. S. helicopter was bring ing supplies into the village, one of many protected hamlets set up by the government as a form of safety against Communist guer rilla attacks. The helicopter was part of the U. S. force stationed in South Vict Nam to help the government against Commun penetration. Officials said a cord used for inter-communications among thej the 'copter's crewmen got tan gled and tripped the trigger of the machine gun. The gun fired several rounds into the crowd of children and other persons watch ing the helicopter land. In the jeep accident, American officials said, the girl suffered a broken arm and head injuries, and was taken to a hospital at Nhatrang, south of the strategic hamlet. A U. S. Embassy spokesman previous press reports that the girl was struck by a jeep carry ing Nolting to the hamlet. The previous reports had said a boy had been killed by Nolting's vehi cle. The jeep was said to have been part of a convoy of Vietnamese sent to the village to set up securi ty provisions for Nolting's subse quent visit. Informed sources said the U.S. Ambassador and his party did not know of the strafing and jeep acci dent before their arrival. The hamlet-naming ceremony, planned well before the incidents, was meant as a mark of respect to Nolting lor his two-and-a-half years of service in South Vict Nam. any closer to catching the robber gang than when the heist was made three days ago. Scotland Yard, apparently des-i perale for a firm clue, appealed to the public to "turn detective" and report anv shred of infor mation that could lead to the cap ture of the gang that held up the London-Glasgow mail train Thurs day. Some reports said police were working on tlie theory that the mastermind of the crime, probab ly left Britain before the actual robbery, one unverified report said Scotland Yard had "a good idea" who he might be and were seeking him on the continent As hundreds of Scotland Yard detectives, postal security agents! and undercover insurance inves tigators scoured the nation's un derworld for clues, the total amount of money acknowledged stolen in the holdup took another jump. Saturday another bank an nounced itself among the victims. The Clydesdale Bank in Glas gow said it had lost 44.000 pounds i $123.2001 in the robbery which brought the known total to $7,- 145.600. Nothing in criminal rec- ords approaches such a figure. Information Lacking Although Scotland Yard in its tradition of making no statements about current investigations said little, it indicated a lack of firm information with its appeal to thecuffs used by the train robbers! British public to "turn detective.' The public was asked to turn in any information it might have about things seen or heard at the time or in tlie vicinity of the crime between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. Thursday near Cheddington. The robbers, or some of them. were known to have driven off w ith their haul in trucks possi bly three of them and an aban doned truck found Saturday was examined by police. But police said later tlie truck was in no way involved, having been stolen from its owners after the train robbery. Another al leged "clue" reported Saturday was thrown down by police. A London newspaper said the hand- to manacle the two drivers of the mail train were of a special make produced by only one firm and that the firm kept a record of all sales. The newspaper quoted an unidentified police spokesman as saying authorities expected to know "in a few days" who bought the handcuffs, and this might be "the biggest break we've had since the robbery." Dispute Statement Detectives in charge of the in vestigation insisted "no police spokesman had made any such statement but the handcuffs were being kept as evidence. From accounts of the raid by the two drivers of the mail train. authorities are working on the 225 TABLETS ..".WV.'.'Sr assumption that from 20 to- 30 men took part in It, and they were recruited from the Scottish and English underworlds. The weakest part of the crimi nals' position is thought to be their numbers the likelihood that at least one or more . of them may talk unwisely or "do something foolish. -" Police also appeared to be bank ing strongly on the world record reward totaling $728,000 "of fered by insurance companies," the post office and banks, for infor mation leading to arrest and con viction of the robber gang. Even in the underworld, it was being acknowledged that that sum of money "should unzip a lot of lips." D QBUFFERIN LJ State Lists Sex Crimes n P" THE MODERN DRUG . lir V "MiX?
