CHICAGO. July 26. - Vice
President Nixon, reporting
gains in his dramatic fight for
a strong civil rights plank, to-
day warned Republicans he
could not accept the presiden-
tial nomination if the conven-
ton adopts a platform "di-
vergent from my views"
Mr.. Nixon. however, expressed
confidence that a satisfactory
platform agreement will be
reached.
"In the end" he said in a
television interview, this will
be a united party"
Earlier, the Vice President
reported I'VE have made some
yardage" in his fight with
party platform writer's over the
civil rights plank.
Mr.. Nixon talked with re-
porters briefly as he was up
and around early to meet with
a number of Southern delega-
tionS in a combined meeting.
"It's been a long night" he
said.
Talked to Rockefeller
The Vice President. it was
reported, talked by telephone
late last night with New York
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller and
others. He called the Gov
ernor. with whom he is allied
in the fight for a stronger civil
rights plank than the Repub-
lican Platform Committee has
/ approved, some time after re-
turning to his hotel from a
call on former President Her.
bert Hoover.
Gov. Rockefeller said this
morning he and Mr.. Nixon do
not want a floor fight over the
civil rights plank. but added,
1--WE will be ready for one if
necessary"
Asked what shape the plank
is in at the moment, Gov.
Rockefeller replied, 1T is shap-
ing up" He pressed his plat
form views at a breakfast meet
ing Of Republican Governors.
Mr.. Nixon's first formal ac-
tivity today was a meeting with
the delegations from Virginia,
South Carolina, North Carolina
and Mississippi in the ballroom

Drafters Vote
Reconsider
Defense Plank
Action Muy Open
Way to Broader
~ Recommendations
BY ROBERT X. WALSH
Star Stan Writer

Star Stan Writer
CHICAGO, July 26.-The Re-
publican Platform Committee
voted today to reconsider the
national defense plank it al
ready HAD approved.
Several members said the
main reason for reopening dis
cussion of the plank was to
write in stronger language with
the approval of President Ell
Senhower concerning the Polaris
missile.
The vote to reconsider never
theleSS opened the way for pos
Sible inclusion of some of the
more sweeping proposals Of
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller.
A full scale reconsideration
Of this kind would provide
test of committee sentiment on
whether the especially contro-
verSial civil rights plank also
might be reconSidered later
today. There were also un-
official reports that a recon-
sideration motion might be
made later today on the for
eign policy plank.
No Decisive Vote
The committee entered into
a long discussion of the Ge-
fense plank and had taken no
decisive vote on any point.
The motion to suspend the
rules and reconsider the de-
fense plank was made by
Representative Lipscomb of
California, chairman of the
defense subcommittee of the
103-member Platform Com /
mittee. His motion carried on
a voice vote.
Several committee members
told newSmen that Mr.. Lips
comb urged reopening of the
plank principally to insert
stronger language with the
approval of President Eisen-
hover" as a result of Mr.. Eli
Senhower's inspection of
Polaris missile firing yester-
day.
Senator Bush Of Connecticut
said there was no doubt that
this stronger language con-
cerning the Polaris would be
approved.
Cites Nixon's Views
He predicted also that the
civil rights plank probably
will be brought up for con-
sideration today in the light |
of the Vice Presidents views"
He added that he did not |
think "the SouthernerS have |
the vote to prevent recon-
sideration."
The housing and old-age
health care platform planks,
both fundamentally contrary to
Democratic proposals, are ready
for expected approval by the
convention tomorrow.
AS with several other planks
already released, the scope of
the health-aid plank was more
limited than the suggestions in
the Nixon-Rockefeller state
ment of last week, but con-
formed in general to views ex-
pressed earlier by Vice Presi-
dent Nixon.
1t also was less comprehen-
sive and specific than the vol
untary medical care program
recommended to Congress this
year by the Eisenhower admin
iStration.
Financing Plan
1t made no mention of the
social security system f1nanc-
ing approach favored by the
Democrats as we'll as Gov.
Rockefeller. Some of the Ian
guage of this section, however,
was taken over bodily from the
Nixon Rockefeller suggestion
for insurance on a sound fiscal
basis through a contributory
system under which benefici-
aries have the option of pur-
chasing private health insur-
ance."
The plank released late yes
terday called for development

State Assigns
z Negroes 10
White Schools
Placement Board
Acts Voluntarily
On Arlington Plea:

RICHMOND, July 26 (AP) &.
The new Virginia pupil
placement board assigned IL
Negroes yesterday to predomi-
nantly white schools in Arling-
ton County.
1t was the first time in the
four-year history of the board
that it had voluntarily as
signed Negro to a white pub
lie school.
The action represented the
final breakdown of the old
massive resistance machinery
set up by the State to ward
of any integration. The origi-
nal purpose of the pupil place
ment board was to take all as
signment authority out of the
hands of local officials who
might be tempted to let down
the racial bars.
Shift in Policy
Although the massive re-
sistance program was thrown
out by the courts in 1859, the
placement board continued it's
policy Of not approving admiS-.
sion of any Negroes to white
schools.
All integration that has taken
place in Virginia thus far has
been by specific court order.
News of yesterdays assign
ments was learned from sources
other than the board itself,
which met here in closed ses-
sion and did not announce the
development.
1t was understood the board
plans to notify Arlington
County school authorities of
the action today and then an
nounce the assignments pub
licly. The assignments are ef-
fective with the start of the
l960-1 school year in Septem-
ber.
$1,000 Approved
Names of the schools in
volved we're not available. 1t
was understood the assign
ments had been recommended
by the Arlington School Board.
The new pupil placement
board, whose three members
were named by Gov. Almond
last week, approved some IT,
900 routine assignments in To-
calities throughout the State
involving no desegregation.
The designations of the old
members of the placement
board were accepted by the
Governor June /. They were
Beverley H. Randolph, jr., of
Richmond, Andrew A. Farley
Of Danville and Hugh V. White
of Nansemond.
The old board had an an
nounced policy of opposing, by
every legal and honorable
means, any attempted mixing
of the races 'in public schools.
1t said in a report to Gov.
Almond that it did not believe
it should be obligated to take
one positive step toward the
mixing of the races in the pub
lie schools"
The board referred action on

MOTHERS DAY. 1860

Since the year 1907, the people of, the
United States have been observing the sec
ond Sunday in May as Mothers Day, with
appropriate services in the churches of the
land, where individuals are accustomed to
commemorating holy things.
In 1914, Congress designated the day
which is widely observed in other countries
as well as our own.
One thing every member of the human
race has in common is the fact that he had a
mother. And, in the United States, we are
proud to say that the average mother has
more help, scientific aids and comforts, than
any other in the world Nevertheless, her
job is often tiring one.
For the job of raising family, and max
ing home, and being mother and wife
and providerj is certainly the greatest job
of all the jobs performed on earth.
To our mind, the greatest calling and the
noblest pursuit, is that of being good
mother The fine, unselfish instincts de-
manded, and the long hours of care, worry
and work, are necessary in great measure.
So we welcome the observance of Mo-
theirs Day, once year, and think that those
fortunate enough to have mother living,
and Christian, loving mother, have the fin
est blessing there is.
