MONTGOMERY, Ala, Feb. IA.
Gov. James E. Folsom declined
comment today on a State Sena-
tors charge that the Governor
had threatened to register every
damn niger in Macon County"
as a voter.
Senator Sam Englehardt of
heavily-Negro-populated Macon
County said the Governor had
sent him word that he'had better
go along. with the administra-
tion's road program or face re-
priSal through registration of
Negro voters.
Gov. Folsom issued this state
ment:
"At any time I have any i'm
portant matter Of state, such as
local appointments. to discuss
with any member Of the Legis-
lature, I will discuss it directly" "
The Governors obvious refer
ence was TO a vacancy on the
Macon County Board of Regis
trars. which developed after J.
L. Rogers resigned following his
election to the State House of
Representatives.
Ralph Hammonds, the Gov
ernor's press secretary, said
Gov. Folsom prefers not to be
drawn into a controversy over
the matter.
Mr.. Englehardt told reporters
Saturday night that the Gov
ernor warned him to "go along
with the highway program" or

centrations near Matsu Island,
100 miles northwest of here and
blocking the entrance to
Foochow. a Red port.
Immediately after his written
replies to questions were read
and his few interpolated remarks
completed-the generalissimo
abruptly left the conference
room.
Newsmen were unable to ask
him about the statement credited
to Foreign Minister George Yen
in the United States to the effect
that the United States was
pledged to the defense of Que
moy and Matsu. Mr.. Yen later
said he had been misquoted.
Gen. Chang had sought, in
negotiations leading up to the
evacuation of the Tachens, to
obtain a public American COM
mitment to help defend Quemoy
and Matsu, a commitment Wash.
ington refused to make.
Gen. Chang today denounced
United Nations and other efforts
to obtain cease-fire with the
Communists in the Formosa
Strait area.
The U NJ, he said. ought to be
declaring. sanctions against
Communist China
AS for informal efforts to OBJ
tain an unofficial cease-fire
agreement outside the U. NJ,
Gen. Chang said that would be
like inviting the criminal to

wine shop outside the law

Otherwise, the only tipoff on
what the series holds in store

for granted that he wanted me
to remain as No. 2 and to cover
him on his attack.
The major had completed his
turn and was now flying west.

sharply, and as a result lost
speed and was left far behind.

catch him was to go into a shall

had lost in the turn. AS started

replied. land you're clear"
At that moment, a stream of
fighter fire ripped past just
above my canopy. Before I could
take an evasive action, the can

ously. there were two explosions
on my right aileron, followed by
three more in rapid succession
on the fuselage.
I tried to break to the left to
evade more fire, but found that
my plane was out of control. In

I hit the air. I found myself
tumbling through space at about
500 miles an hour, my arms and
legs thrashing about. At such

pulling off my wrist watch, he'll

escape kit which had been tightly
tied to the seat of my parachute.
I also lost my United Nations
identification card.

leased my seat. to which was

This was my first bail-out, and
the thought passed through my
mind: I wonder if this damn

you bail out at high altitude and
lose your oxygen supply it is ad-

LAS VEGAS, New, Feb. IA
An improved atomic trigger to be
used for Americas H-bomb may
be the first device to be tried out
in the Atomic Energy Commits
Sion's new series of tests sched-
uled to start tomorrow.
There will be no hydrogen
weapons tested here, however.
The pre-dawn shot. 32d at the
Aces Nevada test site. will be
"a major effort" for the Acc
Livermore (Calif.) laboratory
which specializes in hydrogen
weapons planning.
The disclosure was made by
DR.. Alvin c. Graves, veteran nu-
clear weapons tester, on the eve
of Operation Teapot, fifth and
most exacting series the Acc has
held here in four years.
The opening test also is sched-
uled to include Army participa-
ton. Several hundred troops
will take trench positions about
1000 yards from ground zero.
May Use High Tower.
The device probably will be
detonated from one of the ACES S
higher towers, in line With the
new official concern for radia-
ton fallout in surrounding COM
mumities. The higher the atomic
fireball. the less dust sucked off
the desert floor and less danger
of contamination within the i'm
mediate area.
Barring a change in weather,
the first shot is set for about
5:45 am. psf (8:45 am. EST
on Yucca Flat, larger of the two
Acc proving grounds. The other
is Frenchman Flat.
Despite the smaller nature OF
the devices to be tested here,
there is no Understanding their
Importance. Every test in this
series. Acc Chairman Lewis L.
Strauss declared yesterday. has
been deemed necessary from the

In Trinidad, the flooding Pur-
gatoire River forced 800 families
to leave their homes and take
refuge in community buildings on
higher ground.
Fort Carson, the nearest Army
installation, was quick TO respond
to the community's request for
help.
One senIi-trailer convoy carried
1000 blankets and 500 cots and
mattresses to be used by the VIC
TINS as long as the emergency
lasted. Another convoy took heavy
radio equipment two power gen.
orators, water pump and 800
feet of hose. An engineer grour
moved in with two water purifica.
ton units, each capable of pro.
viding drinking water for 1906

When the two-day emergency
ended, SO Army officers and en-
listed men, working on an around,
