Raleigh, Dec. 3.There were. signs OF

the Orson Welles Marian invasion
broadcast when reports reached here
! recently that hunters were chasing
"Rooshans' over the peaks and balds
which divide North Carolina from
Tennessee. -s~s'"~''''''
Seeming a deep fred" plot and i'm

cooler heads prevailed.
At length it was learned that the

Businesses of Graham county and upon
which an open season has been al
lowed this year.
Start of the story goes back all the
way to 1910 when a mad English

taineers watched the proceedings
looked at each other Significantly
then suddenly took to the nearest

The Englishman, George Moore
had obtained control over vast for

with stout fence and into this inn
ported not only the boars, but also
buffalo, elks, bear and birds. Y II
1t was a passing thing The Eng

Graham folks Keen eyes and steady
trigger fingers of mountain hunters
soon annihilated the elk and buffalo
But his 'Rooshans' were of sterner
stuff. They were prolific and. de
spite lack of official protection, grew
more numerous-so numerous that
this year an open season was de-
clared on them and hunters with
bear dogs are chasing the big brutes.
Largest ever killed was 70O-pounder

hunters say the Rooshans make good
eating, though the taste has little, If
any, resemblance to pork.

FINCH DEFENDS
COUNCIL FOR D. C.

Wilbur S. Finch, chairman OF
the Citizens Conference on Dis
trict Government, today took
sharp issue with Rep. Vincent L.
PalmiSano, Cd, chairman of the
House District Committee, on the
proposal of having an elected citi.
zens advisory council in the Dis
trict.
Palmisano'S denial that such a
council was needed led Finch to
declare the council would be un-
necessary "only when Congress
votes local suffrage"
Representative Everett Dirksen.
(R), ranking minority member Of
the House Committee, urged es-
tablishment Of the elected council
to guide the Commissioners and
Congress on the public's wishes Of
legislation for the District.
Finch declared:
Mr.. Palmisano has been
quoted as saying Congress
doesn't need an elected advisory
council to tell us what Washing
tonianS think about proposed
legislation, but until we get local
suffrage I see no other way.
1T may be true, as Mr.. Palmi-
Sano says. there is a disagree
ment among Washingtonians as
to what they want. Well, not
everyone in Baltimore voted for
the Representative - neverthe-
less he was elected.
There's a majority in the Dis
trict, too"

Abel of the United States Coast
Guard demanded police protection to-
day for two Filipino Guardsmen
threatened-purportedly by the Ku
Klux Klan-because of their marriage
to white women.
Saying the Filipinos. Francaskio
Rubia and Pedro Acoba, had good
service records and we're law-abiding
citizens, the commander Of the cutter
Mojave declared it was "up to the
local authorities to give them pro-
lection against the Klan or any other
organization which attempts such
illegal, terroristic activities"
IF the local police cannot or will
not afford them this protection" he
added, Il will take steps to see that
they get it."
Police Chief H. Leslie Quigg said
the Coast Guardsmen would receive
protection, but that no guard would
be stationed at their house.
The Filipinos said a delegation of
eight men called at the home where
both couples live last night and
handed Mrs. Rubia a note crudely
printed in crayon on a telegraph blank,
which read: I'VE are tired of white
women living with Filipenos. This is
warning for you to move within "a
hours. Signed, Ku Klux Klan."
They also delivered an envelope con-
tanning Klan literature. Women read
this" had been crayoned across one
printed pamphlet headed Ideals of
the Ku Klux Klan."
Rubia said the delegation rode in
an automobile with the license plate
covered with cloth. as was done last
week when hooded Klansmen staged
an automobile parade through the
business district and held a meeting
on city property at the beach cause
way.
Rubia said today he would obey the
warning and move as quickly as !
can" but that he would not be able to
do so by the deadline tonight. He did
not say whe-H he would go.
Mrs. Acoua said policemen who
came to investigate were insulting and
seemed to have come to annoy us
further" Detectives Grady Hammon
and Roy Hancock reported on their
worksheet afterward. Call to make
investigation at 2l9 NV. Fourth
street. Upon arrival found K. K. K
