has been a major demand of
the Negroes.
The Negroes also want more
job opportunities. Their lead
erS said last night a boycott
of white businessmen who
won't hire Negroes will con-
tinue.
The agreement signed yes
terday in the office of Attorney
General Kennedy provides for
employment of a Negro by Au-
gust / in the State unemploy-
ment compensation office in
Cambridge. 1t also provides
for desegregation of all remain
ing segregated grades of the
public schools in Dorchester
County this September and i'm
mediate steps toward construc-
ton of a low-rent housing
project to benefit the Negro
community.
All but the first four grades
Of the public schools have been
desegregated technically, but
only five Negroes have chosen
to attend white schools.
At a rally last night at which
the agreement was explained,
leaders of the indignation
movement urged parents to
make plans to apply for trans
fer Of large number of Negro
students to white schools this
fall.
While features of the agree
ment announced yesterday were
similar to one rejected by the
Negroes last month, Negro
leaders said last night that the
new agreement is better.
Mrs. Gloria Richardson,
leader of the Negro movement
in Cambridge, laid heavy stress
last night at the rally of some
300 Negroes on the fact that
the agreement was signed by
State and local officials and
was worked out in the Justice
Department and witnessed by
Mr.. Kennedy and the head of
the Justice Departments Civil
Rights Division.
Mrs. Richardson, who re-
ceived a ringing ovation last
night, also said that the pro-
vision for the housing project
is firmer than it was in the
earlier proposal.
There we're strong indications
too, that Mr.. Kennedy and his
assistant, Burke Marshall, put
heavy pressure on the Negroes
to accept the terms of the
agreement. The Justice Depart
ment was fearful that the
Cambridge situation might get
completely out of hand.
The Negroes agreed to halt
indignation demonstrations in
definitely while terms of the
agreement are being worked
out. Mrs. Richardson said this
pledge will hold good at least
through the vote on the charter
amendment, If a referendum
is petitioned.
Mrs. Richardson urged Ne
groes to ignore the radical
actions and statements" which
she said can be expected from
certain elements" of the white
community.
Philip Savage, senior MACE
official involved in the Cam
bridge movement, said some
people already are trying to
sow the seeds Of dissension."

2. After Mr.. Hartman initials
the agreement, the committee
expects to have an opportunity
to study it for some days before
the signing. .
8. Then-if the consultations
with the Senators and among
interested Washington Federal
agencies favor the draft
arrangements will be completed
for a formal signing.
Plans for Mr.. RuSk TO 90 to
Moscow himself for the signing
were described as still tentative.
Three Hearings Possible
After his briefing by Mr..
Rusk, Chairman Russell of the
Armed Services Committee said
1t was possible three different
senate committees would hold
separate hearings on a test-ban
treaty unless an ARRANGEMENT
for joint hearings was made.
Asked if he had any infor-
nation on how military lead
ers feel about the treaty, SEN
ator Russell said he did mot
feel authorized to speak for the
military, but we will have hear
ingS in this committee whether
we get possession of the treaty
or not"
Senator Fulbright said yes
terday he has no doubt that
his committee would have pri-
mary Jurisdiction over a treaty.
but was aware of the interest
in the subject also felt by the
Armed Services and Joint
Atomic Energy Committees. Mr..
Rusk and Mr.. Foster met this
afternoon with the Atomic
Energy group.

that has dominated tire meet
ing was resolved yesterday with
a bipartisan directive to the
conference executive committee
to give top priority" next year
to promoting progress on the
racial front.
On the final roll call, only
three Southern Democrats
Cows. George Wallace of Ala
bama, Ross Barnett of Missis-
sippi and Donald Russell of
South Carolina opposed the
motion offered by Gov, John
Dempsey of Connecticut, a
staunch Kennedy supporter.
Republican governors, who
had failed earlier to have the
conference create a special
committee on civil rights,
joined the overwhelming ma
jority of Democrats in support
ing the Dempsey move.
Dissent Drawn Up
The new dispute over do
nestle welfare programs came
to the conference in the form
of majority and minority re-
ports from the Committee on
Public Health and Welfare.
The majority Democrats on
the panel prepared a report in
dorsing the Presidents youth
employment and mental health
bills and his proposal to create
a National Service Corps.
The Republican committee
members drafted a dissent OPP
posing the domestic peace corps
and favoring State rather than
Federal action on mental re-
tardation.
The G. o. P. governors were
also critical of medical care for
the aged under social security,
urging instead that States ex-
plore further the possibilities
of the Kerr-Mills law.
And in a continuation of
their battle for a clear civil
rights stand, they asked the
conference to oppose Federal
grants-in-aid to segregated ia
cilities under any of these pro-
grams.
J Both reports were scheduled
to come before the final con-
ference session late today.
This morning, the conference
gave unanimous approval to the
report of the Civil Defense
Committee, headed by Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller of New
York, indorsing a Nationwide
network Of fallout shelters.
The Governors also shouted
through a motion to reaffirm
their 1862 statement favoring
free and voluntary" prayer in
the public schools.
The question of the new con-
ference chairman was still up
in the air. Most Republicans
favor G. o. P. Gov. Robert Smy-
lie of Idaho and last night there
we're unofficial indications that
the Democrats would go along
with that choice.
This morning, however, the
Democrats repeatedly withdrew
from the agreement and the
prospect of another battle over
this question appeared.
Reed, Anderson in Running
The other possibilities for the
conference chairman are Gov.
John Reed of Maine and Gov.
John Anderson of Kansas.
Under conference rules that
rotate the Craftsmanship
between the parties, a Repub-
lican is slated to take over from
Democratic Gov. Albert Rosel-
lini of Washington. Republic
cans are trying to establish the
principle that the wishes of a
party caucus on the chairman
ship should be respected.

tinuing civil rights struggle
yielded something of value to
everyone but the Southern seq
regationistS. Their spokesman,
Gov. George Wallace of Ala
bama, offered a motion to dis
indorse" the Presidents civil
rights program, but is was
buried 35-10.
The Democrats, who had
been on the defensive ever since
Gov. Rockefeller opened his
civil rights offensive last Sat-
urday, finally came up with a
positive proposal bearing their
party label.
The vote to instruct the ex-
ecutive committee to give civil
rights action top priority" saw
the administrators b. ckers
shake off their uncomfortable
alliance with the segregation
lists who wanted no action on
the issue during the meeting.
At the same time, Republi-
cans could fairly claim that
their initiative had pushed the
Democrats into this move and
that the action taken was, as
Gov. Rockefeller said, "a vic
tory for those of us who are
dedicated to achieving equal
rights for all American citi-
zens."
Furthermore, the new-found
unity Of the G. o. P. governors
held up impressively through
out the afternoons parlia-
mentary maneuvering.
The Democrats, who had
been laundering in both STRAIT
egg and tactics since Saturday,
finally managed an impressive
performance in maneuvering
their civil rights motion to a
vote without a filibuster like
the one that nearly wrecked
last years conference.
Gov. Dempsey took the lead
by asking the conference to
suspend its newly adopted ban
or resolutions and consider the
instruction to the executive
committee.
Democratic Gov. Farris
Bryant of Florida tried to block
the action by moving to adj
journ the meeting, but was de-
feated, BAT. The rules suspen-
sion then carried by 36-5, more
than the necessary three
fourths majority.
Gov. Rockefeller jumped in
Immediately with his substitute
for a special civil rights COM
mittee. But Democratic Gov.
Philip Hoff of Vermont was
ready with a motion to table
that.
The tabling motion carried
25-17, with the G. o. P. Gov
errors lined up unanimously
behind the Rockefeller position.
AS soon as the vote was an
nounced, Cows. Wallace and
Russell demanded recognition
to begin what likely would have
been a prolonged discussion of
the merits of the Dempsey mo-
ton.
But Gov. RoSellini, as pre-
siding officer, was brooking no
delay. He recognized Democrat
ic Gov. Richard Hughes of
New Jersey, who moved the
previous question, thus cutting
off debate.
With South Cardinals Rus
sell protesting that this is real
gag rule" the Dempsey motion
was approved, 1873. Neither
Gov. Tawes of Maryland nor
Gov. Harrison of Virginia was
present during the voting.
Before the whirlwind of final
action on civil rights, Demo-
Gratis renewed their charges
that Gov. Rockefeller was ex-
plotting the issue to further
his presidential ambitions.

picks a corner, but bivouacs in
the middle of the room. She prob

PRIVATE WORLD OF JACK BENNY
ISN'T A FUNNY PLACE AT ALL
By FRANK JUDGE


W. on CHS Tuesday night and
what do you see?
The most assured comedian in the
world. And, in the eyes Of many an
other great Notwithstanding the
dean Of them all. Ed Wynn-he's the
best in the business.
Watch Jack Benny as he works with
guest-star Johnny Carson. the TO
night" host who is repaying Jack for
a visit to NBC earlier this year.
Johnny probably viii have all the
funny lines. Jack will be the butt Of
the jokes, as always. Perhaps this is
the week to make traditional refer
ence to Jacks welI-loaded vault. or
he could once again be television's
most bungling bachelor with the girls.
It's the same Jack Benny who
vowed 'em at New York's Palace
40 years ago.
You meet him and your first inn
preston is that this man-who made
his broadcasting debut 81 years ago
on an Ed Sullivan radio show-maybe
isn't much over 80.
Trim, neat, pleasant, quiet. These
are the adjectives that come to mind.
He nibbles at a fingernaiI. Only then
does his age come into focus. They
are graceful hands, but they are the
hands Of man near 70.
You look at him and you wonder
what he's really like.
Unlike many other great comedians.
such as Milton Berle, he rarely
tells a joke off-camera. Unless he
happens to be with his pal. George
Burns. Jacks been trying to make
George laugh for years.

Not well, not comicalIy, but earnestly.
The man who studied the violin as

More than anything else in all the
