NEWPORT, r. l., Sept. a.
White House Press Secretary
James c. Hagerty today blasted
as Junk" and completely un-
true" radio reports quoting up-
identified White House aides as
saying Arkansas Gov. Orval E
Faubus was throwing in the
sponge" in the Little Rock
school indignation controversy
There is no one in the White
House staff in Newport talking
that way" Mr.. Hagerty angrily
told a news conference.
He said President Eisenhower
had heard the reports and
asked him to make a statement
that Mr.. Hagerty urged be car
ried in full on press wires from
here.
Obviously the President and
Mr.. Hagerty were disturbed
that Gov. Faubus might be-
lieve and react angrily to the
reports that White House aides
were interpreting his seeking
of a conference with the Presi-
dent as a capitulation in the
Little Rock case.
Il have been listening" Mr.,
Hagerty said. Ito some of the

Optimism High
For Settlement
lin Little Rock

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Sept.
l12 FD.-Gov. Orval Faubus is
taking the aggravated Federal
State dispute over Indignation
| in Little Rock directly to Pres
ident Eisenhower and the gen.
|eral belief here today is that a
solution will come out Of their
meeting.
People close to the situation
ARE optimistic.
The President suggested
either tomorrow afternoon or
Saturday morning for the con-
ference.
Gov. Faubus. an aide said
today. has not yet decided when
to 60 to Newport, r. /. He said
the Governor spent most Of
yesterday in bed and that,
while Gov. Faubus is not ac-
|tually i'll. hes not too good"
The aide said Gov. Faubus
was exhausted by the tense.
drama packed events that
boiled up in Little Rock and
North Little Rock. a neighbor-
ing community. after he or
dered the National Guard to
surround Central High School
last week-with instructions to
keep Negro students from en-
rolling.
The Governor has accepted
a summons to appear in United
States District Court Septem-
Der 20 for a hearing on a Fed
eral petition for an injunction
that would stop Gov. Faubus
from interfering with integra-
ton in Little Rock.
Reasons for Optimism
The atmosphere Of optim-
ism in Little Rock pivots on
two main points:
/. 1t IS generally assumed
that Federal Judge Ronald N.
Davies will issue the injunc-
ton against Gov. Faubus in
the hearing next week. The
Governor then would be in the
position Of having to with
draw, under Federal compul-
sion, the troops guarding
Central High.
If he refuses to comply. he
might be liable TO citation for
contempt Of court. II he should
appeal, and lose again. a fan
tastic legal situation could
result.
2. More important, the great
majority of people in Little
Rock want the problem re-
solved-the sooner the better.
The Arkansas Gazette says
today:
Perhaps most helpful Of all
is that the meeting (Eisenhow-
er and Faubus) should serve
to bring the controversy back
into the realm Of reason and
end the unseemly display of
naked force which has shocked
and alarmed the Nation and
the world"

Vice President James r. Hoffa
and Attorney Lyman /. Fisch-
bach is scheduled to begin We'd
nesday in District Court.
The trial, scheduled to begin
tomorrow, was postponed yester-
day until Wednesday by Federal
Judge Burnita Shelton Matthews.
The two-day postponement was
granted by the Judge after Hof-
fa's attorney, Edward Bennett
Williams, made his second plea
of the day for a trial postpone
ment.
On Friday. while Mr.. williams
was absent in New York, Judge
Matthews denied a plea of other
counsel for delay.
Yesterday. Mr.. williams at
ifirst asked for a postponement
Of two weeks. This Judge Mat
thews denied and said the trial
would begin Monday.
Defense Sees Documents
/ On his SECOND plea. Mr.. Will
liams asked for a one-week post
Iponement. He said he had not
had time to prepare for the trial
and that 1t would not be fair to
his client for trial to begin. Mr..
Williams also explained to the
court that he had been busily

the court he was physically ex-

During the court session yes

ing in the Jencks case. Judge

documents at present.
Included in the data were

local president, Eugene David
son. on Thursday night voted to
seek Chief Murray's removal
from Office.
The governing body voted
Unanimously to move for a hear
ing before the District Commits
sioners. The group said if it
failed with the Commissioners,
1t would appeal to the President
and to Congress.
The NAACP specifically
charged that ANY police admin
istration which bases its alleged
efficiency on the federation Of
brutality by police officers is
dangerous to the maintenance of
democratic government"
Chief Murray. who until now
has simply defended his admin
istration, last night accused Mr..
Davidson Of making such in
flammatory statements" that he
has melted resistance to arrest.
Over last week end in the
Ninth Precinct, he reported,
where 100 arrests of colored per-
sons were made, so per cent of
those arrested had to be hand
cuffed and restrained from re-
sisting arrest and assaulting po-
lice officers making lawful ar
rests. He said Mr.. Davidsor's
statements were directly respon-
sible for resistance to lawful ar
rest and, in the end, the COM
mission of more crimes.
In its resolution authorizing
Mr.. Davidson to document his
charges against Chief Murray
and seek his removal, the NAACP
charged:
That there is abundant EVIL
dence that during the past three
years alone the chief Of the Met
ropolitan Police, Robert v. Muir
ray, has failed and refused to
implement police regulations re-
garding use Of undue force in
making arrests: has failed re-
fused to bring before the Police
Trial Board officers against
whom prima facie cases of such
violations have been submitted I:
has used his police force to pro-
tect alleged police offenders and
to intimidate witnesses; and has
even condoned by official silence
insults by a high police officer
to the head Of a civic organiza-
ton seeking to cooperate with
his department.

groups.
1T is my firm belief that 1t
Is the goal of Mr.. Davidson and
the NAACP to force the Police
Department into a corner where
policemen would be totally in

law, afraid to make an arrest
and of no value whatsoever to

police chief with this high re-
Sponsibility has so abused these
prerogatives of his Office as to
give aid and comfort to police
violators Of the law and Of po-

Chief Denies Charges
That there is evidence that
the police chief has knowledge
of and condones "the standard
practice of charging victims Of
police brutality with resisting
arrest and/or assault on police
officers"
That there is abundant EVIL
dence that in the matter of pro-
motions and assignments Of Of
ficers the police chief has ex-
hibited such race prejudice that
his example fosters prejudice Of
officers against Negro citizens.
Chief Murray formally denied
all the charges. He said If any
body should be removed from
office it was Mr.. Davidson be
cause of his distinct disservice
to the colored citizens Of the
District"
AS for himself. he said, IF
the time should come that Mr..
Davidson and the NAACP can
dictate the policies Of the Police
Department. then the position Of
chief of police will no longer be
attractive to me-"
To the NAACP's charges, Chief
Murray made this reply:
what Mr.. Davidson wants is
not fair and impartial treatment
but preferential treatment in
promotions. in discipline and in
job assignments.
Protests Intimidation"
