Lauds Gain on
Bias in South
BY DAVID S. BRODER
Star Staff Writer

Attorney General Robert F
Kennedy today praised South
ern State and local officials
who have co-operated volun-
tarily in desegregating public
facilities.
Mr.. Kennedy told a break
fast meeting Of Democratic
Party officials that the unpub.
licized help from these officials
means we're moving forward
far more" on civil rights than
most people realize.
Mr. Kennedy said that, in Sc
Southern counties where COM
plants Of civil rights viola
tons have been received,
Southern officials themselves
have taken action to remedy
them"
Following the Interstate
Commerce Commission order in
1861, he said, all but one
Southern bus and rail terminal
were desegregated voluntarily.
13 AirpOrts Ended Bias
All but two Of IS segregated
Southern airports also dropped
their racial barriers, the Attor-
ney General said.
He added that % Southern
school districts have been de-
segregated voluntarily since
the administration took office
This quiet progress, Mr.. Ken
nedy declared, is more signifi-
cant than highly publicized
battles over Freedom Riders
and the desegregation of the
University of Mississippi.
Fight Against Crime
The Attorney General also
told the party leaders the last
two years have seen the first
significant progress in fighting
organized crime since the
1906.
Mr. Kennedy's talk high
lighted the second of three
days of strategy talks by Dem
ocratic State chairmen and
National Committee members
at the Sheraton-Park Hotel.
The Democratic gathering
reaches its climax tonight at
a $l00-a-person gala" in the
National Guard Armory, cele-
brating the second anniversary
of President Kennedy's inaugu-
ration.
The activities mean a long
night for President and Mrs.
Kennedy. They plan to leave
the White House about 7 pm.
and return well after midnight,
following a late supper at the
home of Vice President and
Mrs. johnson.
900 Dinner Guests
White House Press Secretary
Pierre Salinger said the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Kennedy will 60

national Inn, sponsored by the

show winds up somewhere

about 500 a week. His wife,
with far less time to work,
and less specialized. makes
plastic flowers, those lovely
Hong Kong things which are
not like any others. and seem
to have come out of some
Chinese fairy-tale. She makes
about l8c a day.
The children are three girls:
MIN Ngan Q3), Ngan Yu
uD, and Lin Yung QRl.
and two boys. Kwan Vim (6k)
and our Kwong Lun. They all
live with their parents in a
small cubicle on the loft of a
groundfloor flat, in an old
tenement. II is as complicated
as it sounds. This loft is a very
wide shelf that is built straight
along one side of the room, but
not all across il. The loft is
divided into two cubicleS, with
another family living in the
other. These lofts and cubicles
honey comb the flats, the tene-
ment buildings, to make room
for as many families as possi-
Bile. At the front part of this
flat is a small shop belonging
TO a man who does some small
exporting and importing, but
not on any grand scale. Our
family has one happy advant-
age in this loft, reached by a
flat, treacherous ladder. II has
window and it lets light and
even air into the otherwise
dark and dismal, crampcd
place. There is a bunk bed on
this loft, and table, a chair,
two stools and the fathers
tools for carving ivory. The
mothers work is also crowded
into this space somehow n
space that is 7'X9'. Rent costs
S4.03 month, and il includes
the use of an electric light.
With all the heartache and
the lack, these parents are try
ing to give their children a
good education, for this is one
great hope for the future. II
means sacrifice, for there is
almost no free schooling in
Hong Kong. Tuition must be
paid. books and supplies
bought, and the children de-
Gently clad for class. They are
now paying S2.67 a month foI
all the children going to school
but this is only tuition and all
the other things are added
MIN Ngan and our Kwong Lur
are especially good students
and their parents are very
proud of them.

He was 9th out of As in his
last examinations and he has
been consistently good. He Won

any boy of his years. he likes
to play bal and he is especi-

as he is needed at home and
is u fine lad, who deserves his
chance for "a better life. PLAN

grant of $500, food and CLOTH
ing and special medical care.
This is new life and hope and

On Spy Case Arrest
PRESIDENT WARY
Mrs. Smith Formidable

There are those who say that
what Mrs. Smith really wants
is the vice-presidential nomina-
ton. For scoffers who MAIN
tanned she would never go on
a ticket with Senator Gold
water, she got up on the Sem
ate floor Wednesday and pro-
tested her friendship for him.
Such is her reputation for
thorny independence that no.
body from either camp or the
National Committee has dared
to approach her to inquire
what she really proposes to do.
Lady With a Lamp
The only people who have
been made happily by her mys-
terious and tantalizing hints
are Republicans who simply
cannot face a choice limited
to Senator Goldwater and Gov.
Rockefeller. To those in the
Nation and in New Hampshire
who think there has to be
somebody else, she is like Flor
ence Nightingale or Clara Bar
ton, a lady with a lamp in a
dark situation.
They say with pleasure that
Mrs. Smith, at very little ex-
pense and exertion to herself,
could so muddy the waters in
New Hampshire it would be
impossible to tell who is New
Hampshire's favorite.
Mrs. Smith. who will be 6e
next month, is mum.

England colleague. that she

Whatever happened to Georgia

nous letter which purported to
tell how it was done.
The whistle, which was acti-

was reported stolen from its Z
inch steel base about two weeks
ago.
And it was no easy accom-
plishment, says the letter
which an unidentified youth
handed a wa tic h m a n at the
Atlanta Constitution last night.
The letter, signed THE Mag

Tech students were involved.

the steam whistle, its brass pol

glasses and cigarette, symbols
of its retirement.

SAIGON, Wet Nam, Nov. IA
(AP.-A powerful bomb was

The Imperial Cafe, a corner
establishment with sides open

The two wounded Americans

The letter said the whistle
was removed by two students
while the others acted as Sc
curity men.
Needless to say. there were
seven close calls. However, the
mission was accomplished Sue
cesSfully in less than half an
hour and we returned to bed
happy in the thought that we
would not be rudely awakened

whistle" the letter said.
But their citation may be
short lived.
An Atlanta businessman said
the whistle was better than an
alarm clock, so he is taking ap-
propriate action.
L. w. Robert. who heads a
nationally known architectural
firm, said he will donate $1,000
to Tech to buy new whistle.
Since somebody has taken it
away, I've been oversleeping, "
said Mr.. Robert. I'm going to
give the thousand so Tech can

22l Sideways Struck
As Driver Talks Fail

Truck drivers from the
Transfers Union went on
strike at 8 am. today against
22l Safeway stores in the WASH

efforts to negotiate a new con-
tract failed.
A Safeway spokesman said
the stores would remain open
"as long as they have mer-

Picketing started almost at
once at the Safeway distribu-
ton center in Landover, Md.

Meanwhile, company Spokes-
men and a union negotiating
team are scheduled to meet at
6 pm. today with James Hol-

At the request of Mr.. Holden,
the union named a 15-man
Negotiating Committee with
authority to negotiate and set
tie on a new contract. The old
labor contract with Local 639
of the Transfers Union expired
October 81.
Intensive negotiations, which

A company spokesman said
that the pasteurizing equip

The contract dispute centers
on the length of the contract,

The union membership has
rejected a management offer of
a three-year contract with
hourly pay raises of 431a cents
for meat-truck drivers, AZ cents
for other drivers, 4012 cents

The proposed contract also
included an increase in the
