Up to now,s the Govern
ment's urban renewal pro-
gram has quite obviously
been unable TO forestall the
creation of new slums at a
pace faster than old ones are
being reclaimed. This trend
is bound to continue, no
matter what urban renewal
approach is employed, so
long as the present imbal-
ance continues between the
availability of mortgage f.
nancing for restoration of city
homes and that for construc-
ton Of new ones in the sub
urbs.
AS a counter to decay in
Washington, students of the
micro-neighborhood techni-
que point to a whole series

years. 1t is to these neigh
borhoods that they refer for

There's a certain logic,
supported by experience, in
what might be termed
the Observation-Disclosures
approach" to urban renewal.
It's an inviting theory that
has behind it a number of
very important successes. So
far, however, nobody has
tried to explain it, nor has
any attempt been made to
apply it as a calculated tech
nique to help advance the
Federal Governments urban
renewal program.
First, it can be explained
in general terms. Second, a
suggestion can be made of
some of the steps that might
be necessary to make it work
quickly and effectively for
the improvement of cities.
One way to define it is to
say that it is an approach 10

it is logic that has paid of

Phone Cable Laid
Directly Linking
U. and Europe

PARIS, July 10 (AP)-A
transatlantic cable for the
first direct telephone link be-
tween the United States and
the European continent has
been laid on the ocean floor.
The French communications
ministry announced yesterday
the English cable ship Monarch
arrived of Penmarch, France,
with the Newfoundland France
section of the cable. The first
of the twin cables was laid from
France to Newfoundland last
spring.
The Monarch spliced into the
cable that was being put down
by the cable ship Ocean Layer
when she caught fire a month
ago in the Atlantic. The splic-
ing job had originally been
planned at about the spot where
the IRE began, but the Mon
arch had to grapple for the
cable on the ocean floor.
Still to be laid is the final
cable link between Newfound-
land and the United States.
The new cables are expected to
go into operation this fall and
will be able to handle SO stimuli
taneous conversations between
the United States and Europe,
the ministry said. Up to now
telephone communications be-
tween the continent and Amer
lea have had to be routed
through Great Britain, end
point of the transatlantic
cables now in use, or sent by
radio.

SHREVEPORT, La, July Is
(AP).-A Federal judge can
celed the appearance of II voter
registrars before a United States
Civil Rights Commission hear
ing today and ordered a three
judge panel to test the law
creating the commission.
District Judge Ben C. Daw-
kins. jr.. said rules of the hear
ing denied the registrars their
constitutional rights to know
their charges, confront wit
nesses and cross-examine ac-
cusers.
Judge Dawkins added there
was also a serious question
raised about the validity of the
act establishing the commission.
He added he would leave that
to the three-judge court.
The Judge late yesterday
granted a temporary restrain
ing order on petition by Louisi-
ana attorney general Jack P.
F. Gremillion, and set the Spe-
cial tribunal date as July %.
Mr.. Gremillion had described
his petition as the first agrees

The six-member commission,
headed by President John A.
Hannah of Michigan State
University, came here to study

them of their rights to vote.

it from quizzing the registrars.

Los ANGELES, July Is (AP).
- lain Anthony Hemensley.
self-styled gentleman burglar
who reaped a fantastic haul
working in broad daylight,
knew all along he'd eventually
wind up where he is today-in
Jail.
But the dapper visitor from
Southern RhodeSia - credited
with making of with between
$4,000 and 100000 in loot in
six months-says his fling at
crime was fascinating while 1t
lasted"
Hemensley, In the United
States on q visitors visa, told
police he committed at least
SO burglaries during his stay,
striking at the homes of the
rich while they were away. Ac-
tresses zsa Zsa Gabor and
Rosemary Lane are listed
among MS VlcClmS.
Bold Operator
Hemensley's method was
bold, but he figured that was
the smart way to play it.
Il got away with it for a
long time" he said, because of
a Japanese philosophy which I
applied to crime. You take the
obvious and reverse it. and then
do the obvious and 1t remains
un-obvious."
One of the obvious things
about Hemensley's routine
outside the fact he worked in
daylight-was the way he went
to work. He drove to and from
his jobs in a flashy white con-
vertible. Trouble is. the car
was stolen and Patrolman Don
Ferguson spotted Hemensley
driving it yesterday. That's
how he landed in jail.

Discussing the foreign minis
tiers conference reopening in
Geneva today. Mr.. Hartman
expressed doubt that major
achievements would be made.
He made this suggestion for
reaching an agreement at the
conference:
II think that in some ways
it might be Of value to give the
East German regime a little
more acceptance. a de facto tin
reality acceptance, not recog-
milton in the diplomatic sense,
and then perhaps there would
be a development in East Ger
many along the lines of Poland" "
Poland has gained much more
autonomy in the Soviet bloc
than East Germany has.
Mr.. Hartman said Mr., Khru-
shchev gave him the impression
that something might be worked
out on Berlin IF we give some
acceptance to the East German
regime"
If this was done, Mr.. Harri-
man added, Mr.. Khrushchev in
exchange would apparently be
willing to give ground in his
inSistence that the West get out
