demonstrators - splitting into
groups-lay down in front Of

The demonstrators, members

Commission to hire more Ne
groes and Puerto Ricans.
About 20 demonstrators were
bumped or brushed by cars.
Police said there were no ar
rests, although a park commits.

DR.. Blake, however, had other
thoughts.
II don't know If the trespass

is not right If it allows property

DR.. Blake, with the majority
of other arrested demonstra-

CHICAGO. July 5.-The jeeri
Of an unruly group Of deter
mined Negro and white demon
strators drove Mayor Richard j
Daley and the president Of TIL
worlds largest Negro Baptis
organization from the stage o.
a July I civil rights rally here
yesterday
The Rev. Joseph H. Jackson
president Of the National Bap'
fist Convention, left the rally
in an unmarked police car.
Earlier, Mayor Daley left thu

demonstration had prevented
him from speaking.

was introduced. As the dem.
onStration continued for 10
minutes, Mr.. jackson sat or
the platform smiling and chat

The audiences anger appar.
emily was showered upon Mr.
Jackson because he has ex.
pressed agreement with Presi.
dent Kennedy that there shoulC
be q moratorium on mass dem.
onstrations until after Congress
takes action on the administra-
tons civil rights bill.
Roy wilkins, NAACP execu.
tive secretary, said the people
who interrupted the meeting
were not NAACP members. Ed.
ward Marciniak, executive di.
rector Of the Chicago Commits
sion on Human Relations, said
he recognized some leaders Of
the demonstration as members
of the Chicago chapter of the
Student Nonviolent Co.
ordinating Committee.
A majority Of the demon
strators, however, wore Official
NAACP delegate badges. Sew
eral of the adults who Joined

Compromise
Seen on Races
BY the Associated Press

Senator Javits, Republican Of
New York, says some compro-
mise may be necessary for pas
sage of President Kennedy's
bill to ban racial discrimination
in places Of public accommoda-
tons.
Senator Javits, one Of nine
Republican Senators who have
signed up as cosponsors Of the
measure. said "the real tough
fight" will be over this part OF
the 7-point program Mr.. Ken
nedy submitted to Congress.
The bill would require deseg-
regation of such privately
owned business establishments
as hotels, restaurants, theaters
stores and other places Of pub
lie accommodation.
Senator Javits, in o recorded
radio interview yesterday (CBS
Capitol Cloakroom), said {
compromise might take thu
form Of putting a floor undel
the volume of business or TIL
number of employees Of estab
lishments subject to the pro
posed anti discrimination meas
ure.
This idea has been banded
about in Senate and HOUSE
hearings on the legislation, but
it has run into objections that il
is counter to what hackers tern
the basic moral principle thai
all citizens should be treated
alike, regardless of their race
or color.
Attorney General Robert F
Kennedy told the Senate Com
merce Committee the Justice
Department had considered the
idea but rejected it because il
didn't seem to make sense Il
say big businesses couldn't dis.
criminate but little businesses
could.
He testified, however, thai

(AP).-Senator Strom Thur
mond, Democrat OF South Caro-
lima, said in a Fourth of July
speech yesterday that the
United States Supreme Court
lis the most dangerous and
vicious court we've ever had"
and called for Its impeachment
Senator Thurmond said he
wished I'VE had enough men in
Congress TO stand up and say
Tets impeach these men who
have no business there on the
Supreme Court bench"
He said he realized THE
depth" OF urging impeachment
OF the court, but added he
made the statements after
deep thought"
The Senator also attacked
President Kennedy's civil rights
program as the worst civi
rights package any President
ever presented" He said the
program is lined with brides
and blackmail."

the Negroes Of voting age are
registered to vote.
Under the terms of President
Kennedy's proposals. court reg
istration machinery, including
the use Of referees, could be
put in motion in such counties
as soon as the Attorney Gen.
eral filed a complaint alleging
a pattern or practice Of dis
elimination.
Registration would proceed
while the suit was pending in
the courts. The procedure would
differ from the 1860 Civil
Rights Act, under which a court
case must be successfully ter
minated before voting referees
can be appointed.

to calm the crowd.
Mayor Daley teft the plat

pered remarks to NAACr off.
Gals and others who appar-
emily were apologizing for the
demonstrations.
Attributed to Statements
Chicago Alderman Leon Des-
pres. q Democrat who has beer
at odds with the powerful Daley
machine, told reporters that
"the demonstration was caused
directly, by the statements he
Daley made Monday night.
Nothing is more deeply re-
sented than segregation and
overcrowding In Chicago" Mr.
Despres said.
AS Mayor Daley left the park
he was accompanied to his
limousine by Senator Douglas
Democrat Of Illinois.
Mayor, I didn't know 1t was
this rough. Maybe ] shouldn't
go In there" the Senator said
NO." the Mayor replied, "go
ahead, Senator, make your
speech. Everything's all right.
Ready for Long Fight
Senator Douglas was greeted
with cheers. He said America
must support President Ken
nedy's civil rights Legislative
package and prevent 1t from
being whitfield down or Grip
Pied" He said Southern Sena-
tors win filibuster against the
legislation.
Some Of us are determined
to fight this out If 1t takes all

He cautioned his predomi-
nantly Negro audience mot to
allow your enemies Of the
extreme left and the extreme
right to provoke you into vio-
lence which they will turn
against your interests"
The Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth,
q leader Of the Birmingham

described the United States
Constitution as "a promissory
note Of freedom but it's hard
after 100 years for men with
black skins to cash the note

Blake was one of those who
praised the police.
They're just doing their duty
and I was doing NINE" DR..
Blake said.
The Congress of Racial Equal
ity sponsored the mass protest,
which was supported by about
40 organizations including
church groups.
A CORE spokesman. Leo
Burroughs, jr.. told demonstra-
ton leaders at a morning rally
at Metropolitan Methodist
Church in Baltimore that per-
haps hundreds would be ar
rested and jailed.
The demonstrators included
200 who arrived aboard four
chartered buses from New York,
and others from Philadelphia.
Many Of them carried overnight
bags, apparently in anticipa-
ton Of overnight stays in jail.
In Hastings, Nebr., the mod
orator Of the United Presby-
terrain Church, the Rev. Silas
@. Kessler, commended DR.
Blake 'for this evidence Of
personal faith and willingness
to sacrifice in order to demon
strate the validity and vitality
of action of the church over
which he presides."
Mr.. Kessler, the elected head
Of the United Presbyterians,
said the church is interested in
acting in the field Of racial re-
lations ION an interfaith basis
and I assume this explains why
he was taken in company with
Bishop Corrigan and Roman
Catholic priests"
Park Privately Owned
Gwynn Oak Park is privately
owned and has maintained a
policy Of restricting its facilities
to white persons. Several racial
disturbances have erupted there
in the last two years. 1t is
situated Just across the Balti-
more City line from the north
west section.
The white persons were ar
rested yesterday because they
were supporting the Negroes
efforts to gain entrance to the
park.
DR.. Blake was one of the
first IL arrested. His group
had entered the park from
another section, apparently
without being noticed, while
a decoy group argued with
police and the co-owner of the
park, James Price, at the main
entrance.
Others gained entrance to
the park by taking off their
shoes and socks, rolling up
their pants and wading across
Gwynn Falls, a small stream
that meanders around part of
the wooded picnic area.

Arms Control
Shukeup.Is
Demanded
BY the Associated Press

Representative Hosrner, Re-
publ ;an of California, demands
that top officials of the Arms
Control and Disarmament
Agency be fired and replaced
by hard headed Americans
who understand what the Com
munists are up to-"
Mr.. Hosmer did not name
any of the officials he thinks
should 60. But he issued q
statement saying "the basic
duty Of the agency Is to inves-
tigate the possible pitfalls OF
disarmament and arms control
schemes, balance them against
claimed advantage, and come
UP with sound judgments on
safe courses for our country.
1T is not doing its Job" he
said.
Mr.. Hosmer said he is draft
ing six amendments TO the act
that created the agency. to cor
rect what he called "glaring
defects"
He said 1t shouldn't be
called a Disarmament Agency
at all because some control
over arms and ornaments Is
the only practical objective
which can be seen for, a long
time ahead"
Mr.. Hosmer said he wants
legislation which would prevent
the agency from creating its
own research staff. Govern
ment research directors tend to
hire people who agree with
them" he said,
The Congressman also said
the agency director should be
barred from participating In
International negotiations. it
should be separated from the
State Department, and its
budget should be limited to SIS
million a year.

other Districts Affected
In addition to Mr.. Broyhill's
Northern Virginia district
which has one of two counties
with less than is per cent Of
Negro residents registered
other districts in the State that
might be affected by the legis-
lation are:
Representative Downin g
whose LIST district has two Of II
counties with less than 5 per
cent Negro registration; Repre-.
sentative Gary, Sd district, one

sentative Tuck, 5th district
three Of nine; Representative
Marsh, 7th district, one Of five;
Representative Howard w
Smith, 9th district, one Of 20
and Representative Jennings
9th district. two OF IL.
The new legislation seeks IL
prevent slowdowns in register
ing Negroes in affected areas
by declaring that individuals
applications be heard within
10 days and determined expe-
ditiously."
An ironic byproduct Of the
legislation might be a rush by
white voting officials in some
counties to enroll enough addi-
tional Negroes TO bring the fig
ure UP TO is per cent and thus
preclude appointment Of q Fed
eral voting referee who might
quickly register a far greater
percentage.
