u. S. Vio|inist Scores
Triumph in Moscow

MOSCOW, Nov. 10 (AP).-A
comparatively unknown young
New York City violinist last
night scored the biggest and
most unexpected American
musical triumph in Moscow
since Van Cliburn.
Joyce Flissler was kept on
the stage of Tschaikovsky Hall
by a storm of applause for al
most an hour after the end of
her violin concert. A audience
made up mostly of professional
and amateur musicians de-
manded six encores.
Miss Flissler, the wife of
Ralph Mendelsohn, violist in
the New York Philharmonic
Orchestra, came to the Soviet
Union for a three-week tour.
She was here the first time in
1858, the year Mr.. Cliburn won
the Tschaikovsky piano COM
petition that catapulted him to
fame.
In the violin competition
then Miss Flissler won a run
nerup prize. She said it was
this showing that decided her
to return, which she did en-
tirely on her own. Her tour
arrangements were made with
out the help of an American
impresario or the United States
State Department. The United
States Embassy didn't even

In Massachusetts

BOSTON, Nov. 10 (AP).-
Law enforcement officers halted
26,S78 motorists in an early
morning Statewide roadwatch
operation today, arresting go
on the spot for driving under
the influence of liquor.
The Office of motor vehicle
registrar Clement A. Riley said
the number of arrests is the
second highest since roadwatch
operations were started several
years ago.
In addition to the arrests, SO
drivers had their car i'm
pounded temporarily when
they were found driving after
drinking. The officers are to

A force of 5,000-registry
men, State police, city and

Awaits Ru|inq
; Judges Ponder
Schools Verdict

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 10
(AP).-An uneasy calm settled
over this strife-troubled city
today while a three-judge Fed
eral court studied what course
school indignation would take.
The three Judges, all South
erners, adjourned a three-hour
hearing yesterday without an
immediate decision.
There was no indication
when the ruling would be
handed down.
Three Paths Open
The judges are considering
these paths:
They can put of indignation
until emotions subside and a
Federal-State tangle unravels.
They can leave in effect q court
order that admitted four Ne
gro first grade girls to two
white schools.
Or they can dismiss legal ac-
ton against Louisiana which
blocks its Legislature from run
ming New Orleans schools on a
segregated basis.
New Orleans first public

struction brought a week of
school boycotts. unruly protest
demonstrations and street
fights.
Schools in Recess
TemperS finally cooled as
schools recessed for a week to
allow teachers to attend State
convention in Baton Rouge
and for the Thanksgiving holi-
day.
The courts decision could set
in motion the lowering of the
traditional segregation barrier
in the city's Catholic schools.

journed until Wednesday and
went home to await the Federal
courts action.
Requested by Board
The request to suspend in
tegration-until Federal-State
differences are resolved-came
from the New Orleans School
Board. The State contends il
has full sovereignty over public
education.
Samuel I. Rosenberg, the
boards attorney. warned the
special tribunal yesterday, dur
ing its three-hour hearing, that
the dispute could force closure
of New Orleans schools through

completely futile question" OF
the extent of the mandate
given the new administration.
"This is an issue which has
filed the headlines for the past
few days but which certainly
has little relevancy to the re-
alities of our national life" he
commented. "A small major
ity does not mean that the
administration is expected to
exercise a small bit of wisdom,
a small bit of prudence or a
small bit OF effectiveness.
Il can promise you this. The
incoming administration went
before the American people on
a platform which sought to do
the greatest good for the great
est number, and we are going
to try to the limits of our ability
to achieve that goal"

Andrew H. Berding told the ed
itorS yesterday the United States

comprehensively but the press
also has responsibilities in its
selection and handling of news

He declared too much is

to do so.
Mr.. Berding also declared

Washington leaders have

Blasted as
u. S. Puppet

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
Nov. 10 (AP). The Soviet
Union launched a determined
effort today to prevent the
United Nations Gerenal AS
sembly from seating a Congo
delegation headed by President
Joseph KaSavubu. 1t called
the delegation an obedient pup
pet OF the United States.
Soviet Deputy Foreign Min
lister Valerian A. Zorin took the
floor in the 99-nation Assembly
as the Western powers privately
were expressing confidence they
would be able to place the
KaSavubu group in the dis
puted seat.
Mr.. Zorin said:
I'VE characterize this as a
political maneuver of the United
States and its NATO allies de-
signed to resolve this question
in an improper manner, thus
exerting an influence on the
domestic political developments
in the Congo in the interests
OF the colonizers."
Accuses U. S.
Mr.. Zorin accused the United
States of leading a Western
campaign against deposed Pre-
mier Patrice Lumumba, whom
he called the legitimate repre-
sentative of the Congo. He
called efforts to seat Mr.. Kasa-
vubu's group IAN indecent
farce"
Mr.. Kasavubu himself was
not present during the debate,
although he had been at U. N.
headquarters earlier in the day
for a 45-minute private talk
with Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold.
1t was assumed they dis
cussed the plan for a 15-nation
Cancellation commission to 60
to the Congo next week to seek
an end to the internal political
conflict. Mr.. Kasavubu has in
dicated he would have nothing
to do with the commission I'M
less the assembly seats his
delegation.
Seating Proposal
The specific proposal before
the Assembly was a resolution
drafted by the Credentials
Committee recommending the
seating of the Kasavubu dele
cation.
Guinea, a hacker of Premier
Lumumba for the U. N. seat,
put in an amendment late yes
terday to the United States
supported resolution to seat
Mr.. Kasavubu. 1t would re-
verse the committees recon-
mendation by calling on the
Assembly to defer action on
Mr.. Kasavubu's application.
Their optimism was based
on the defeat Ghana suffered
earlier yesterday when she
tried to get the Assembly to
adjourn the Congo debate I'M
til an Asian-African concilia-
ton commission tries to END
the feud between Mr.. Kasa-
vubu and Mr.. Lumumba.
The Asian-African bloc split
on the motion. and it was de-
feated by a vote of 81 against,

Guinea and Mali have
threatened to quit the commits
mission if Mr.. Kasavubu is
seated. There were reports
that India and Ghana would
follow suit.

Urging Speed-Up

BY GARRETT ID. HORNER
Star stan Writer

PALM BEACH, Fla, Nov. 10.
|-President-elect Kennedy and
Senator Symington begin a
week end of talks today about
proposals for recognizing the
Defense Department.
Recommendations prepared
for the President-elect by a
committee headed by Senator
Symington are understood to
call for greatly increased uni
fication of the armed forces at
top levels.
Senator Symington, Missouri
Democrat who was one of those
defeated by Senator Kennedy
for the presidential nomina-
ton, was bringing the COM
mittee report with him to go
over it in detail with Senator
Kennedy.
Senator Smathers, Democrat
Of Florida, also was a scheduled
caller on Senator Kennedy to-
day at his vacation headquar-
tiers here-hiS fathers OCEAN
front home.
Eyes on Caribbean
Meanwhile, the President
elect presumably was giving
close attention to developments
in the tense Caribbean, where
American warships are patrol
ling to prevent any Commu-
nist-directed invasion of Qua
temala and Nicaragua from
Cuba where the Castro regime
charged the American action
was a threat to world peace.
Senator Kennedy got a top
secret brief1ng on the danger
GUS situation in Central Amer
lea yesterday from Central In
telligence Agency Director AL
len Dulles, and Richard Bissell,
a deputy CHA director.
Afterward, Senator Kennedy
refused as improper" any
comment on the Presidents &C
ton putting the Navy on guard
in the Caribbean at the request
of Guatemala and Nicaragua.
Donald M. Wilson, Senator
Kenndey's acting press secre-
tary, said the President-elect
feels it is improper for him
to discuss actions or policies
of the United States Govern
ment at this time" because he
has no responsibility for them
until he assumes Office Janu-
airy 20.
Secretary Cut Made
One Of the proposals reported
under discussion by the Sy-
mington committee would
strengthen the Office of the
Secretary of Defense by elimi-
mating the Army, Navy and Air
Force secretaries. The civilian
service heads might be Under
secretaries of Defense.
The recommendations also
are expected to call for greater
use Of unified commands, and
moves toward closer indignation
Of supply services.
Senator Symington, a former
Secretary of the Air Force in
the Truman administration,
has been prominently men,
toned as a possible Secretary
of Defense in the new Kennedy

has indicated he might prefer
to remain in the Senate.
