"Rights'
Gets Ho
Vote Today
WASHINGTON (VP)—The House
finished putting together its civil
rights bill yesterday /but had to
delay a vote on final passage until
today.
Approval then is assured.
A last-ditch fighter against the
legislation, Rep. John Bell Wil
liams (D -Miss.), forced the one
day delay by demanding a printed
copy of the bill in its final form.
For all practical purposes, how
ever, the bill was completed
Going beyond the 1957 legisla
tiyn which created the federal.
Civil Rights Commission, the mca-)
sure provides new federal court
help for Negroes who complain of
being prevented from voting, |
It also provides for federal pun-j
ishment of persons who defy courtj
orders for school desegregation by]
force, or threats of force. j
A roll-call vote of 295-124 late
yesterday nailed in the voting
section, which previously had been
approved on a standing vote which
did not record individual stands.
The roll call found 172 Demo
crats and 123 Republicans votingj
for the section, and 100 Democrats
and 24 Republicans voting against
it.
Now the civil rights battle shifts
back to the Senate.
In the Senate, Majority Leaderl
Lyndon B. Johnson (D.-Tex.) is'
aiming at a vote on passage of j
a civil rights bill by a week from
Saturday, April 2.
Johnson’s target date could
prove over-optimistic, in view of
the determined battle 18 South
ern senators have been putting
up against the bill. Also, back
ers of various proposals have been
speaking at considerable length
to make the bill stronger.
Radiation Rocket
Experiment Fails
CAPE CANAVERAL. Fla (jT>)—
Rocket failure mined a United
States effort yesterdav to launch
a radiation-study satellite into or
bit about the earth. Officials said
the experiment will be tried
again.
The four-stage Juno II booster
rocket blasted off smoothly at
8:35 a.m. but the third stage—a
cluster of three solid-fuel rockets
—did not ignite and the Juno II
and its 35.3 - pound payload
plunged into the Atlantic about
2000 miles from the Cape.
The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration announced
an hour after launching that the
76-foot rocket failed to place its
payload in orbit. NASA said it re
ceived no radio confirmation of
third- and fourth-stage ingnition.
The third-stage fizzle doomed the
fourth stage.

fers Arms Cut
Iforld Control
• The Soviet Union offered yesterday to
• powers a cut in manpower and weapons
Iternational disarmament controllers.
'otiators said the plan still would leave
irk on the Soviet Union’s true military
ireign Minister Valerian Zorin presented
his proposal to the 10-nation dis
armament committee and claimed
[it showed the Soviet position “on
controls is close to that of the
!Western powers."
; “We want controls from the be
[ginning to the end of disarma
jment,” he said.
But the Western delegates
said the defect in Borin's plan,
as they interpreted it, was so
obvious that they hoped it was
not put forward seriously.
If this is the Soviet Union’s last
word, and not a bargaining po
sition, they said, then the week
old conference already is in trou
ble.
Bill
ise
This is what Zorin offered: The;
demobilization of an agreed num-i
ber of men and the removal of :
a corresponding number of weap-l
ons from a nation’s military estab
lishment would be controlled and I
verified from beginning to end by
international inspectors. j
But then came the catch, in j
the Western view. There would [
i be no verification of the number
of men and weapons the coun- <
try had when the reduction be
gan. There also would- be no '
I check after reductions were con
; eluded.
| The five Western powers—the
jUniled Slates, Britain, France,
[ltaly and Canada—began a study
of the transcript of Zorin’s re
marks. They hoped to determine
how much room for maneuver the
Soviet delegate left himself.
; Under the West’s plan, the var
ious powers first would report
j their force levels and armaments.
Strict verification would begin
[when ceiling levels of 2.5 million
[men for the United States and
[the Soviet Union had been fixed,
jwith corresponding lower fig
lures for other powers.
Crash Caused
By Dynamite
WILMINGTON, N.C.
truction of a National Airlines
plane which crashed near Bolivia,
N.C., Jan. “was the result of an
explosion of dynamite.”
A team of experts made this
finding in a report read yesterday
at a Civil Aeronautics Board in
quiry into the cause of the crash
which killed 34 persons.
The board itself will issue a re
port later with it£ findings of the
probable cause.
The inquiry board also was told
evidence indicated the blast oc
curred "in close proximity to and
immediately behind the legs” of
Julian A. Frank, 32-year-old New
York attorney who had taken out
life insurance totaling more than
a million dollars. The F. 8.1. is
checking all possibilities concern
ing Frank’s death.

'Meddling'
JOHANNESBURG, South
Africa (A*) The govern
ment told the United States in
effect yesterday to keep out of
South Africa’s race troubles.
The South African government
rapped back at U.S. State De
partment denunciation of blood
jshed as Negroes, challenged the
[nation’s white supremacy laws
[with work boycotts after two days
of violent demonstrations.
The Foreign Ministry sum
moned U.S. Ambassador Phiiip
Crowe for a conference, then is
sued a statement.
The statement said the discus
sion with Crowe does not mean
[that South Africa is “conceding
[the right of the U.S. government
,to concern itself with the domes
i tic affairs of South Africa, just |
[as the Union of South Africa
[government does not concern it
i self with riots or racial disturb
ances in other countries.”
[ The statement declared the
State Department had criticized
I police violence here without
knowing all the facts “regarding
(attacks by many thousands of
[Bantu Negroes on a small police
(force to whom was entrusted the
[duty of maintaining law and or-'
der.”
As criticism of this week’s po-,
lice violence mounted in world
capitals, officers kept a tight lid
on South Africa’s 11 million non
whites.
The Negroes’ work boycotts
threatened to paralyze some im
portant industrial centers. Thej
weapon could be a potent one for!
[the Negroes, who supply the low-i
cost labor that keeps the coun-j
try's economy going.
Police charged militant Negro
leaders “have created a reign of!
terror” in Negro settlements to
keep people from returning to
work.

Hagerty Backs
SummitMeefing
WASHINGTON (JP) The
White House fired back yester
day a Democratic complaint that
President Eisenhower plans to go
to an East-West summit confer
ence without advance plans or
purpose.
“Thai’s a lot of nonsense,” re
torted Press Secretary James C
Hagerty.
While defending the decision,
Secretary of State Christian A.
Herter had conceded that a wide
[open conference is a gamble.
But he Brgued that even such
[a meeting was preferable to al
ilowing international tensions to
