Arms Plan Would Shut
All Military Academies
GENEVA (/P) The last stage of the West’s disarmament plan would abolish all
bases, general staffs and military schools such as West Point and the U. S. Naval Academy,
the West disclosed yesterday.
But, the Soviet bloc was told at the 10-nation disarmament conference, this stage
would be reached only after rigidly controlled worldwide arms reductions made such instal-
South Fails
To Weaken
'Rights' Bill
WASHINGTON t/P) South-!
cm rongiessmen lost again in
the House yesterday, this time by
20 vote'-, in an effort to limit the
authouty proposed in civil rights
legislation for voting referees.
A count of 157-137 i ejected an
amendment to confine the scope
of these couit-appointed officials
to elections of federal officials i
It would have exempted state i
and local elections.
The margin compared to the
137-11-1 vote by which the House
turned down a similar proposal
Friday. Both tallies were teller
counts, in which individuals’
votes are not recorded.
The leferees are proposed as 1
a moans for making sure that’
qualified Southern Negroes are al
lowed to vote. The referees would
be appointed by federal judges.
Rep August E. Johansen (R-
Mich ), offered yesterday’s amend
ment, which was solidly backed
by Southerners. The Friday
amendment was also presented
bv a non-Southerner, Rep Homer
II Budge (R Idaho).
Johansen called his a “stop
and-look amendment” against too
much encroachment of federal
authority in local affairs.
Rep. Emanuel Celler (D-N.Y 1,
retorted. ‘'We cannot tolerate Jim
Ciow at the ballot box"
Celler tiled to prevent a vote
on the Johansen amendment, on
the grounds the House had al
ready voted on the issue.
However, Rep. Francis E Wal
ter (D-l’a.l, presiding, tuled there
was enough difference from
Budge’s proposal to let the new
one go to a vote.

Elimination of Western overseas

3 Killed As Jet
Crashes Into House
DENTON, Md. (/P) —A disabled,
unmanned military 857 jet plane
plummeted from the sky over this
Eastern Shore town yesterday and
crashed into a small house, killing
a woman and her two young
grandchildren.
Parts of the plane soared upon
impact, shattering windows in a
nearby school.
But the Venetian blinds were
drawn to keep out the afternoon
sun. This formed a shield and pro
tected several hundred students
from injury.
A few of the youngsters at the
Loekerman Consolidated' School
for Negroes were cut by the flying
glass, but none had to be hos-'
pitalized.
; There was no panic. The chil-!
, dren filed out of the building in
orderly fashion. I

Of Aiding War Criminals
HAVANA (ip) Cuban officials said they captured a pri
vate plane yesterday piloted by two Americans trying to
whisk a Cuban war criminal to refuge in the United States.
Relations between Washington and Havana are expected
to become even more’troubled as a result.
The Americans, one wounded
in the leg by gunfire that forced
down the light aircraft, and the
man they intended to take out of
Cuba were detained. Also held
were three other persons, includ
ing a woman.

fied by authorities as Howard
Louis Rundquist. The other was

the highway about s(i miles east
of Havana for a rendezvous with
three Cubans. Suddenly soldiers

50 Die, Scores Hurt
In S. African Riots
VEREENIGING, South Africa (/P)—At least 50 Negroes
were killed and scores wounded yesterday during demonstra
tions against the South African government’s strict segrega
tion policies.
Police opened fire with submarine guns and rifles. Jet
bans denied Cuban charges that
they were involved in an es
cape plot.
The capture of the plane came
a few hours before U.S. Ambas
sador Philip Bonsai paid a cour
tesy call on Cuban Foreign Min
ister Raul Roa. Bonsai arrived
Sunday after several months in
the United States and is planning
a new effort to shore up sagging
Cuban-American relations.
The plane incident is expect
ed to make Bonsai's mission
more difficult. If stoked the fires
of anti-American propaganda
growing higher here daily.
The Castro government has
complained bitterly in the past
that the United States is shelter
ing Cuban war criminals, a term
used by the Cuban government to]
describe civilians and former mil
itary men associated with the re- 1
gime of deposed President Ful
gencio Batista.

planes and armored cars also were
.brought into use.
The main demonstrations were
at Sharpeville, 30 miles from Jo
hannesburg, and in the Langa
nonwhite township outside Cape
Town.
Official reports said 56 Ne
groes were killed and 162 in
jured in the Sharpeville riots.
Six Negroes were killed and 30
wounded later in the day when
police fired on demonstratiors
in Langa.
Negro leaders called the dem
onstrations in protest against laws
which require all non-whites to
carry passes. Passes marked
•‘native” bar Negroes from many
jobs and subject them to special
regulations.
In the Langa area several build
ings, including two schools, were
destroyed by fire.
Prime Minister Henrik Ver
woerd told Parliament the
crowd at Sharpeville numbered
50.000. but officials on the scene
set it at 20,000.
The Sharpeville riots occurred
in two stages. In the morning po
lice opened fire on a crowd of
about 2000, and killed one man
and wounded two others.
The crowd moved away after
the shooting but began to gather
again about lunchtime.
