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

WASHINGTON (UPI) - Gov

weekend meetings in an effort to
settle the deadlocked railroad
work rules dispute.
Labor Secretary W. Willard
Wirtz met separately Friday with
heads of the engineers and fire

James J. Reynolds conducted
bargaining between the rail

tives of the trainmen, conductors

WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
Treasury today anticipates a big
surge in profit-taking sales on
the stock market next year.
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.
