Viktor Pozdneyev, 3a, his

and then will ride about a mile
north to the home of their
grandfather, former Ambassa

Johnson Thursday signed
a catch-all appropriations bill
containing $5.1 billion for the
U.S. space agency.
In a statement Johnson
voiced concern, however, about
a provision banning any joint

there was no chance of such a
project in the current fiscal
year and the restriction was
undesirable in principle.

Dorm Housing Daughter
Of President Picketed
AUSTIN, Tex. (UPP-A group
of mostly Negro students made
good their promise Thursday
night to picket the dormitory
where President Johnson's
daughter lives on the University
of Texas campus.
The demonstration, carried
out under rain and the watchful
eyes of the Secret Service, was
to protest segregated housing at
the school.
The President's daughter,
Lynda Bird Johnson, was in the
Kinsolving Dormitory when 22
pickets marched back and forth
on a sidewalk across the street
from the building.
There were no incidents.
Austin police and Secret Serv
ice agents, who guard Lynda
Bird, kept a close watch on the
demonstrators but did not inter
fere with them.
Two of the signs carried by
the pickets quoted a recent
speech by President Johnson
"It is time to write the next
chapter, and to write it in the
books of law."
Oilier signs read "Delay
causes President's daughter to
be in segregated housing," and
"Tokenism belongs to a dying
age."
Kinsolving is the largest wom
en's dormitory at the univer
sity. The demonstration was an
nounced earlier by the Campus
Interracial Committee. The
students said they also would
sing in front of the dorm, but
one Austin police officer said
"it was too cold and wet for
that."
The committee said Negro
classmates of the girls in Kin
solving "remain in cramped
quarters across the street" and
both lost the cultural advantage
"which living together can
bring."
Three Negro students filed a

suit in federal court Nov. 11,
lSKil asking integration of dor
mitories at the school and briefs
were filed last July. U.S. Dist.
Judge Ben H. Rice of San An
tonio has not ruled on the case.
In November, University of
Texas regents announced a new
policy of desegregation of all
student-activities, including ath
letics, but did not integrate dor
mitories and dining halls.
The regents said the excep
tion was made because of the
impending suit.
William Searman, chairman
of the interracial committee,
said the fact the President's
daughter lived in the dormitory
was a factor in choosing it for
a demonstration.

U.S. Army court martial today
found two Negro American sol
diers guilty of tlie unpremedi
tated murder of a white U.S.
airman in a barracks brawl
here Sept. 6.
A third defendant a white
soldier was convicted of tlie
lesser charge of involuntary
manslaughter in the same case.
The court tlien retired to con
sider sentences in tlie case
arising from the death of Air
man I.C. Robert Padgett, 23.
Woodlawn. Va., who died in a
hospital shortly after the figlit.
The two Negro defendants
are Pvt. Richard L. Parker Jr.,
Eckman, W. Va., and iPfc. Ed
ward Spears, New York. They
faced a maximum penalty of
life imprisonment.
Tlie white defendant was Pfc.
Allen L. Gcrnard. New York.
Three years is the maximum
penalty for involuntary man
slaughter. The military court was com
posed of six whites and two
Negroes.
U.S. officials have denied
French press reports that the
brawl was Hie culmination of
racial hostility between white
and Negro servicemen and
have attributed the fight to tra- j
ditinnal interservice rivalry. j
The defendants claim the
fight broke out after some air
men shouted racial insults at
them.
A total of six soldiers were
charged with Padgett's mur
der. Pfc. Raymond Bost Jr.,
Pittsburgh, and Pfc. Robert
Burrell, of Philadelphia, both
Negroes, were convicted by an
all-white court Nov. 9 and sen
tenced to 15 and 12 years, re
spectively, at hard labor in
Leavenworth federal prison.
A sixth defendant, Negro sol
dier franklin D. Waddell, il8,
Philadelphia, faces trial later.
Tlie prosecution charges that
the defendants entered the Air
Force barracks and launched
an unprovoked attack with
steel bunk supports, killing
(Padgett and injuring other airmen.

Committee urging that present
tariffs be maintained.
Don W. JloColiy, president of
the Wine Institute at San Fran
cisco, said the wine industry's
domestic market would be jeop
ardized by proposals to 1 o w e r
tariffs. He urged that U.S. rep
resentatives at forthcoming ne
gotiations with the Common
Market postpone action on wine
tarilfs until agreements are
worked out to give all w ine pro
ducers "reasonable access to all
markets."
Spokesmen for the cherry,
olive and filbert industries made
a similar plea agaiit any re
duction in tariffs.
Witnesses for the Oregon
cherry industry were William R.
Shinn, Salem; Courtney D. Las
selle, Sherwood-Corvallis, and
George 51. Davis. Tlie Dalles.
William B. Parker, Stockton,
Calif., appeared for San Joa
quin County cherry growers.
Tlie cherry growers said a
"flood of i m p o r t s" resulting
from reduced tariffs would
threaten tlie continued existence
of the industry in Oregon, Cali
fornia and Washington. They
said growers in Michigan, Ida
ho, Utah and New York also
would be hurt.
