Exposed in Double Life

MORGANTON, N. c., July
26 (AP) North Carolina Re
publican chairman William E.
Cobb admitted today that for
two years he has lived a double
life, maintaining Two homes,
one for his wife and the other
for a woman by whom he had
two children.
Mr.. Cobb, dapper 40-year-old
Morganton lumber broker and
a driving force of Republican,

A WOMAN REMEMBERED
Peron Faithful Honor Evito

For years after her death,
every radio station in Argen-
tina paused at 8:25 each night
to proclaim that this was the
precise moment at which Eva
had passed into immortality"
Eva Duarte, one of five chill
dren, came to Buenos Aires
from the provinces as a slim,
striking teen-ager. With brash
persistence, she worked her way
up from bit parts in radio to
minor movie roles. She met
Peron, a widower, when he was
actively cultivating labor sup
port on his road to the nations
presidency.
Eva became a champion of
the "descamisados" shirt
less ones-and made them
Peron's mightiest weapon.
Peron married Eva shortly
before he became president
early in 1916.
AS she grew in power, her
wrath could spell ruin for those
who failed to contribute to her
charity foundations or Stunned
her.
After her death, Peron plan
ned an enormous mausoleum,
taller than the Egyptian pyra-
mids, for her. One Of his last
official acts was to lay the cor
nerstone. Rebels blew up the
foundation of the monument
after Peron's overthrow. But
the memory of Evita lives on
in Argentina.

SobIen Loses
In England
And Israel

LONDON, July % (AP).-Dr.
Robert A. Soblen's campaign to
escape life Imprisonment in the
United States as a Soviet spy
suffered two setbacks today
in London and Jerusalem.
The British Court of Appeal
rejected Soblen's plea that he
be set free in Britain. The three
appeal judges, headed by Lord
Denning. threw out Soblen's
contention that the British gov
eminent failed to serve him
proper notice that he would not
be admitted to this country.
In Jerusalem, Israel's Inte-
rior Ministry turned down
Soblen's application for ad-
mission to Israel as a Jewish
immigrant under the 1852 Law
of Return. This ruling was
reported to have unanimous
approval of the cabinet.
The ruling was challenged,
however, by Soblen's Tel Aviv
lawyer, Ar Ankorion, and it
was announced the full cabinet
will meet Sunday to reconsider
the decision.
In neither the British nor
the Israeli action was Soblen's
return to the United States
assured. But two possible ave-
nues Of escape were at least
temporarily cut off.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina,
July 26 (AP).-FollowerS of ex-
Dictator Juan D. Peron plan a
torchlight parade to begin at
8:25 tonight, just 10 years from
the moment when Eva Peron,
one of the most powerful wom-
en- of modern times, died Of
cancer.
The anniversary also will be
marked with a round of masses
and visits to the family plot in
a Buenos Aires cemetery, but
not to Eva's own grave. The
whereabouts of her body is a
military secret.
Eva's body disappeared in the
hectic days of the 1855 revolt,
when the presidential mansion
was RACED as Peron fled into
exile. RevolutionarieS later
found the coffin in a garnet of
the headquarters of the General
Confederation of Labor, where
Eva had welded vast power
over Argentina's workers.
The rebels whisked the coffin
away, and to this day only a
handful Of military men know
what was done with the
remains.
Ever since, Peronists have
clamored for a return of the
body for public burial.
Eva. a dynamic blond, was 80
years old when she died. In her
few years beside Peron she
reigned as the dazzling half of

Visitor Tours

When the White House guard
put the arm on William Nealy
shortly before noon today, he
had a moment Of panic.
Mr.. Nealy had come down
from Chester, Pa, where he is
a school principal. He brought
his wife, his 4-year-old daugh-
ter Eleanor; his mother-in-law,
Mrs. Clayton Carroll, and the
Ray Ludingtons, visiting from
Portland, Oreg., for a day of
sightseeing. The high point
was to be q visit to the White
House, but they were late get
ting in line.
When that guard took me
by the arm, I thought he was
going to say we were too late"
Mr.. Nealy said.
But it turned out that wasn't
it at all. Mr.. Nealy was the mil
lionth person to visit the White
House this year.
So instead Of being elected,
Mr.. Nealy and his brood got a
royal tour Of the Executive
Mansion. They were personally
escorted by Inspector Kenneth
Burke Of the White House Police
on a leiSurely trip through the
main floor Of the White House,
which ordinary visitors race
through on the double. Then
they. were shown the third
floor, where the President and
his family live.

given a framed photograph OF

The most impressive gift,

car, don't worry about it. Just

Leaders Of the banking,

peace with the military junta

Glad to See Him Leave
AS Mr.. Loeb left Lima, the
junta made it clear it was CHAD
to see him leave.
A statement labeled semi
official but emanating from
the Foreign Ministry said Mr..
Loeb's departure would tend to
ease existing tension between
the two countries" It accused
him Of helping to create "a
climate Of misunderstanding"
in Washington.
Asked about the charges, Mr..
Loeb told the Associated Press

Rocket Fails
In High Attest
Thor Blown Up
On Launching Poo

HONOLULU. July 26 (AP).-
A Thor booster rocket tipped
with a nuclear device was de-
liberately blown up on its

last matchmaking the third
failure in four tries to explode
a high-altitude shot.
Joint Task Force 8 and the

nounced that, although the
missile destruction caused pad
fires, no one was injured and
the blast caused no hazard
from radioactivity.
Their statement said:
"a check of Johnston Island

activity as a result Of the de-
liberate destruction and burn
ing Of a Thor booster and a

The Acc said, "All missile

Joint Task Force 8 in the
test zone confirmed that the
Thor and the nuclear device
it was intended to lift had
been deliberately destroyed,
and that no one was injured.
Other than to say that there
had been a malfunction, no
information was made avail
able as to what went wrong,

in the high-altitude test series
that a missile had been blown

County Ban Upset
In Integration Fight
Federal Court
Directs Action
By September 7

A Federal Judge today told
Prince Edward County, Va, to
reopen by September Z the pub
lie schools 1t closed three years
ago to avoid indignation.
Judge Oren r. Lewis in an
opinion filed in Richmond and
Alexandria Federal courts di-
rected the school board of the
southside Virginia county to
plan for the admission Of pu-
pills this fall without regard to
race or color"
He said the public schools of
Prince Edward cannot remain
closed while the Common
wealth of Virginia permits
other public schools to remain
open at the expense of the tax
payers"
His ruling did not deal Speci-
fically with the problem of fl
nancing public education in
Prince Edward. The shutdown
was brought about by refusal
Of the Board of Supervisors to
appropriate tax money for in
tegrated classes.
But he appeared to place the
responsibility squarely with the
State, plus the county school
board.
Cites Virginia Court
Citing an earlier decision Of
the Virginia Supreme Court Of
Appeals, Judge Lewis said:
Prom this decision it would
appear that the constitution of
Virginia imposes a mandatory
duty to establish and maintain
ian efficient system Of public
schools throughout the State.
and that the State may not
remove from the system schools
in which the races are mixed"
He also said:
"At least in the area of con-
stitutional rights, specifically
with respect to education, a
State can no more delegate to
its subdivisions the power to
discriminate than it can itself
directly establish inequality"
Since Prince Edwards schools
closed, the county's 1,400 white
children have been attending
private classes, while the 100
Negro children have been with
out formal schooling.
Tuition Grants Curbed
Until this year, the private
white classes had been fl
nanced largely with State tut
ton grants. Judge Lewis held
in an earlier decision, however,
that the tuition grants could
not be used as long as public
schools remained closed. The
county supervisors still refused
to yield and reopen public
schools and the white classes
have continued solely with the
support of local residents.
Judge Lewis took note in
his decision Of the present
school situation in the county
which is the only subdivision
in the country to forego public
education permanently rather
than permit indignation. The
schools have been closed now
for three years, land will re-
main closed unless they be
legally required to reopen, the
judge said.
Sees Negroes Hurt
In the interim, he observed,
practically all of the Negro
children in the county have
been denied a formal educa-
ton. The white children are
being educated in the (private)

Policy Can't Last

Feeling grows here that the
boycott policy cannot last. Ac-
cording to their political in
clinations, people have begun
either to laugh or be angry
about the abortive United
States effort to direct Peruvian
policies. The belief in the
success of this kind of inter-
vention-even If it is in favor Of
constitutionalism-is clearly on
the wane.
The fact of the matter is that
official United States hostility
to the coup has proved far more
extreme than the reaction of
the Peruvians themselves. The
breakdown of the general
strike and the stern letter sent
to President Kennedy by United
States commercial interests
here - criticizing American
policy as "prejudicial" to the
economy-are only two Of the
main signs showing the direc-
ton Of the popular tide.
In effect the public apathy is
enabling the new military
government to consolidate its
power with a minimum Of
repression. And this domestic
tranquility, in trun, makes
nonsense Of foreign efforts to
topple the usurping govern
ment.

True to Washington's orders,
