Mount Rainier, Nd, has en-
tered the era Of its golden
years.
The town of $4,000 civic
minded inhabitants in q one
square-mile area next to the
District of Columbia's eastern
border, passed its 50th an
niversary as an incorporated
community yesterday.
A four-day celebration of the
event will commence next
Thursday to avoid conflict with
religious holidays.
Mount Rainier's population,
which burgeoned Immediately
after World War II, has re-
mained static for the past
decade, guarded by inexorable
boundaries and the lack of
available land on which to
build.
Today. half the towns popu-
lation are apartment dwellers.
The city fathers set their
sights on the 50th anniversary
several years ago, and serious
planning has been under way
for months. A committee Of 40
has held weekly meetings since
mid-winter and the fruits of
their labors include next weeks
tour-day celebration.
Oldtimers like to look back
on the days when their village
was known as Mud Rainier, ,"
and scarcely q COW path graced
the oak forest that is now the
bustlins interstate highway
known as Rhode Island avenue
Surveyed by Army Officers
Actually, no one remembers
the real beginnings Of the town,
or even the exact year that a
group Of Army officers from
Seattle, Wash, surveyed a 100
acre tract on Washineton's
northeast boundary. They
named 1t Mount Rainier in
honor Of the mountain in their
home State.
By the time the land was
bought from the officers in 1902
by syndicate Of six men, there
were IS houses within half
mile radius and the total
population was so persons.
Despite the small population,
civic interest never was lacking.
Residents set their sights on
incorporation and q hassle
promptly developed because the
original plan included parts of
what is now Brentwood. After
long argument, the citizenry
decided to incorporate only the
area Of Mount Rainier, which
accounts for an uneven boun-
dary line on the east and
northeast.
First Major Action
The towns real progress be-
gan in 1916, when the residents
looked about them and found
they were becoming "citified."

racial climate in the state, phys

Father Gibson, whose home and
own person have been threatened
with violence, told the Committee,
"If people who join our organiza-
tion discover that we are going to
disclose their identity, that is Q
sure way our organization would
be wrecked. For this reason, we
feel we have a legal right that
needs to be cleared"
Father Gibson also told the Com

ference with freedom of association
and freedom of speech"
There is ample reason for MA

The feud turned into violence

y Stronger UN Action
Taking stronger hand to stem
the growing threat of civil war,
the United Nations command seiz-
ed the government radio network,
thus silencing Mr.. Lumumba, who
had counted on his oratory to woo
the Congolese.
But Mr.. Kasavubu circumvented
UN radio control by broadcasting
from Brazzaville, across the Congo
River from Leopoldville in the
former French colony now called
the Congo Republic. Mr.. Kasavubu
declared he still is the Congo ;
chief of state and his ministers
had no power to depose him. In
his broadcast, monitored in Lon
don, the President said he could
count on the Congo Army to sup
port him in his struggle with Mr..
Lumumba, whom he accused of
plunging the country toward die
tatorship and Communism.
The Brazzaville station said il
had set up a direct link with Mr..
Kasavubu's residence in Leopold
vile.
Airports Sealed
Mr.. Kasavubu is banking on the
stiffening authority of the Unit
ed Nations to restore order in the
republic and support him as chief
of state.
Mr.. Lumumba is counting on
aid from the Communists, who
have been funneling in technicians,
trucks, and troop-transport planes,
to keep him in power.
To keep the feud from erupting
into full civil war, UN troops seal
ed off traffic into Leopoldville Air
