Implications Serious
The international indications
of the rebellion were serious.
Some observers saw a con-
flict of American and British
policy. The care with which
the Macmillan government APP
preached the situation made
clear that difficult policy issues
were involved.
Saudi Arabia is a leading
power in persuading other Arab
states to accept the Eisenhower
doctrine against communism in
the Middle East.
The rebellion was set off
when Imam Ghaleb ben Ali,
religious leader of Oman, seized
control three days ago of some
5000 square miles of territory.
The Sultan Immediately APP
pealed for help from Britain,
with whom his government
has had treaty relations since
1899.
Britain does not have formal
protectorate relations over
Muscat and Oman. such as is
held over the neighboring and
fabulously rich oil sheikhdoms
Of Kuwait and Qatar.
But British officers lead the
Sultan's private army Of 400
men and the Sultanate. like
Kuwait and QataI. is protected
by the trucial scouts-an irreg-
lar military organization also
led by Britons. The Imam is
reported TO have a force OF
about 1900 tribesmen
British officials feer that to
deny protection to the Sultan
might open the way for outside
forces TO try to overthrow the
sheikhs of Kuwait and Oatar.

Aiken to Back
Jury Trial Ban
Hold Rights
Bill toVotino,
He Demands
BY J. A. O'LEARY

Senator Aiken, Republican Of
Vermont, announced today he
will go along with the admin
istration to keep a jury trial
amendment out of the Civil
Rights bill if the scope of the
bill is narrowed down to pro-
lection Of voting rights.
He also told reporters, how
ever, that he will oppose any
compromise on striking out
Title III, under which the
Attorney General could use
Federal injunctions to enforce
racial Indignation or any other
civil right.
Senator Aiken's announce
ment on the jury trial issue
was regarded as significant, be-
cause he is co-author with
Democratic Senator Anderson
of New Mexico of the motion
to conflne the bill TO voting
rights.
Also In Title Nv
This could be accomplished
by eliminating Title III be-
cause the power to use in
functions to protect voting
rights is carried separately in
Title w.
Senator Aiken predicted that
If Title III stays in. so that the
bill covers all civil rights. the
Senate will insist on jury trials
for persons accused of violating
injunctlons. But if the bill is
limited to voting rights by
striking Title III. he believes no
jury trial amendment will be
adopted.
Senator johnson. of Texas,
majority leader, said Title III
only confuses and complexities
what should be the central
theme of this bill-the right
to vote" He said the President
can get what he has said in his
press conferences he wants
without Title III.
1T has been argued that the
President would not use these
powers" Senator Johnson con-
tinued, referring to the use OF
injunctions to force integra :
ton and other civil rights. II
think that statement is prob
ably accurate. l have conf
dence in the good faith and in
tegrity of our President. But
that is no argument to move

Enacted 80 Years Ago
Senator johnson pointed out
that some Of the civil rights
laws now on the books were
enacted 80 years ago. and added
that no one knows how long
this bill would remain on the
books.

forces are behind a tribal re-
bellion in a remote Arabian
peninsula area. The tribal up
rising is threatening a new

Secretary Lloyd told the

origin"
