EorIyAction
Being Sought
On Marshall
By the Associated Press

Democratic Leader Mansfield
Of Montana hopes to get early
action on the nomination OF
Thurgood Marshall as a United
States Circuit Court Judge.
Senator Mansfield made his
statement to the Senate yes
terday after Senator Lausche
Democrat of Ohio, told his col
leagues that Mr.. Marshall, q
former official of the National
Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, is not
being treated fairly.
Senator LauSche complained
at failure of a Judiciary SUBJ
sommittee to act on the NOM
ination, which was submitted
by President Kennedy last jan
uary.
Judge Marshall is entitled to
the same type of treatment as
any other American citizen,
Senator Lausche said. He is
not getting it,"
Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen of Illinois said he had
discussed the nomination with
Chairman Eastland, Democrat
of Mississippi, of the full Judi
ciary Committee and is conf
dent that group will act soon
The subcommittee, headed by
Senator Johnston, Democrat OF
South Carolina, plans to hold
one additional hearing on the
nomination. It has set no date
Senator Lausche suggested that
the leadership move to take the
nomination from the commit
tee and bring it before the
Senate. Senator Mansfield in
dicated he thinks that may not
be necessary.
80 far as the leadership is
concerned, it is our intention
to make every effort to get the
nomination to the floor of the
Senate before Congress ad-
journs," he said.

The first phase Of the drive
to clean out or scatter the
heavy Wet Cong concentrations
controlling most Of Wet Mans
southern tip ended last week
end in disappointment for its
American planners.
Gen. Paul D. Harkins, COM
mander of United States forces
in Wet Nam and Thailand, and
his high command had worked
on the planning for three
months and were highly opti-
mistic when it got under way.
No Contact Made
But for four days, 1000 Gov
ernment troops backed by
fighter planes. United States
helicopters and Navy units
pushed through Ca Mau penin-
sula at the tip Of Wet Nam
without making contact with
any Wet Cong concentrations.
The estimated 1000 guerrillas
in the region melted into the
thick mangrove Swamps. Amer
lean sources reported the drive
netted only so Wet Cong dead.
The operations second phase
opened yesterday as the Gov
eminent force turned north
ward to the River delta in Ba
Xuyen province, believed in
filtrated by some 1000 Red
guerrillas in recent weeks.
United States and Government
hopes rose again, because the
Ba Xuyen terrain affords easier
maneuverability.

commander was reported killed
and a Red battalion dispersed
in the fighting 125 miles south
west Of Saigon.
Military sources said the gov
ernment's 1st Airborne Bat
talon encountered a large con-
centration Of Wet Cong guer-
rillas last night a few miles
south of the operations COM
mand post at Bac Lieu, in
Southern Ba Xuyen Province.
An estimated 800 guerrillas
ambushed the government bat
talon after United States Ma
rine helicopters had ferried the
South Wet Namese troops into
the area. The paratroopers
fought their way out Of the
ambush and chased the fleeing
guerrillas through the flooded
rice fields.
Government troops counted
54 dead guerrillas. The Wet
Namese Air Force claimed its
follow-up strafing attacks on
the fleeing guerrillas killed 80
more Reds. American sources
could not confirm the govern
ment claims.
Government casualties to-
tailed six killed and II wounded.
Stable Red Force
Government forces also
captured a small store Of Com
munist arms and fuel in the
clash, the first time South
Vietnamese troops have met a
sizable Red force since they
opened Operation Big Pacifi-
cation" last week.

action in bringing the cases
to trial.
1--WE are prepared to try the
case just as soon as the de-
fendents are ready" Govern
ment attorneys said.
The two House members were
charged with receiving COM
pensation for trying to per-
suade the Justice Department
to postpone trial of a mail
fraud charge against Edlin and
for attempting ultimately to
have the charges dropped.
Extraditi0n Challenged
Edlin pleaded no contest to
the fraud charges last April
and sentenced to six months in
prison. He was released last
Wednesday in Tallahassee and
has since been embroiled in an
extradition proceeding.
The A. P. reported that Edlin
and Louis Goldman, SIS, have
challenged the sufficiency of
extradition papers seeking their
return to Montgomery County.
Md, to face charges of en-
bezzling funds from the First
Continental Savings g. Loan
Association.
One count of yesterdays
Federal indictment charged
Representatives Boykin and
Johnson, together with Edlin
and Robinson, with conspiring
to obstruct impartial operations
Of the Department Of Justice.
The indictment charged Mr..
johnson with receiving $24,918
for his efforts in Edlin's behalf
and charged both Congressman
with improperly profiting from
real estate transactions involv-
ing at least $3.2 million.
IS Acts Listed
Also listed in the indictments
are rs overt acts-visits, tele-
phone calls, letters and memo
randa-allegedly committed by
the defendants to bring pres
sure on Attorney General Rob-
ert Kennedy and Assistant At
torney General Herbert J..
Miller, jr.. regarding the Edlin
case.
The Indictment charged the
conspiracy existed from April
Il, 1860, to December 81, 1861.
All of the alleged payments
to the Congressman were made
either by First Continental
Savings & Loan Association or
by Robinson. the indictment
charged.
Mr.. johnson asked the Jus
tice Department last January
to investigate what he labeled
a malicious smear campaign"
involving his connection with
Maryland savings and loan
firms. He claimed the situa-
ton was being used as a ''polit-
ical football" in connection
with his bid for reelection on
November 6.
In May, Mr.. johnson teSti-
fled for more than an hour and
a half before a Montgomery
County jury probing savings
and loan scandals.
