Plan for D. c. Unit
Adds 26 Posts
BY CHARLES d. PIERCE
Star Staff Writer

A proposed major reorganiza-
ton of the District Health De-
partment was approved in
principle today by the Com
missioners.
Under the plan, five new
associate director jobs would be
added to the department, which
now has director and a
deputy director.
These five positions are part
of a total of 26 jobs which
would be added. The reor-
ganization also calls for the
abolishing of the same number
of positions.
However, since the new jobs
are high-paying ones, the net
addition to the fiscal 1864
budget would be $145, 900.
duncan 0dlhS Fldn
DR.. Murray Grant, health d.
rector, said some of the posi-
tons to be abolished are now
untitled. He added that when
other jobs are eliminated, the
people now holding them will
be transferred elsewhere in the
department.
Commissioner John B. Dun
can hailed the plan as lone Of
the greatest things that could
happen. 1t is designed to cure
once and for all some of the
problems that have been
plaguing the Health Depart
ment for years"
DR.. Grant said the reorgani-
cation plan, proposed by him,
is the most important single
proposal I have made since
becoming director a year ago."
DR.. Grant said the purpose of
the reorganization is Ito knit
the whole department into a
single, cohesive unit. At present
the various bureaus are operat-
ing almost Independently"
$500 Employees
He said, for example, that
now the Bureau of Mental
Health has no jurisdiction
over mental health activities
at District General Hospital.
Under the reorganization all
mental health activities will
be supervised by one bureau
regardless of where they are
located.

CourtOrder
Is Enforced
Extremely
BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG
Star Staff Writer

President Kennedy today
managed to enforce court
ordered indignation of Ala
bama public schools without a
show of Federal armed might.
Instead of putting Federal
troops on the scene, he pulled
National GuardSmen out of
action.
The strategy was carried out
with all the precision of a
chess match. Gov. George c.
Wallace of Alabama made his
move Of defiance and the Gov
eminent responded with deci-
Sive counter moves.
AS a result, Justice Depart
ment observers on the scene in
Alabama we're able to report to
Washington that Negro stu
dents were entering the pre-
viously white schools of Ala
bama today.
Least Intervention
The administration strategy
was aimed at getting the job
done with the least possible
show of Federal intervention.
Throughout last week, Gov.
Wallace put on his show Of
defiance. Convinced that he
lacked support in the States,
the Federal Government moved
slowly and cautiously. Then,
late yesterday, the Govern
ment began making its move.
President Kennedy set the
stage with a statement late
yesterday afternoon making it
clear that the Federal Govern
ment would act only if Gov.
Wallace compelled 1t. The
President warned that the Gov
eminent would do whatever
must be done to implement
Federal court orders.
Went to Court
The next Federal move in
volved the courts. The Govern
ment asked for and got an or
der signed by all five Federal
judges in Alabama directing
the Governor and his officials
from interfering with court
ordered desegregation.
Gov. Wallace responded dur
ing the night by calling out ap-
proXimately 300 GuardSmen to
replace State highway patrol
men around public schools
where Negro students were
seeking entry.
That show of defiance trig-
gered presidential action today.
At tbs am, while President
Kennedy was still in his bed
room, he signed a proclama-
ton declaring that the Ala
bama Governor and certain
State officials we're conspiring
to obstruct enforcement of
Federal Court orders dealing
with school indignation.
In the proclamation, Presi-
dent Kennedy commanded the
Governor and his officials to
cease and desist from their

Alabama Enro|Is Negroes
20 Pupils
Go to Class
Cities

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Sept. 10
(AP). - President Kennedy
snatched control of 1900 Ala
bama Guardsmen away from
Gov. George c. Wallace today
and 20 Negro children integra-
ted public schools at Birming-
ham, Mobile and Tuskegee.
Gov. Wallace, who had
blocked their entry yesterday
with executive orders and State
troopers, declined to comment
at Montgomery on the Presi-
dents LIBERALIZATION Of the
guard and the desegregation
which followed quickly.
DeSegregation below the col
lege level in Alabama came
first yesterday at Huntsville
where there was normal class
room activity today. Gov. Wal
lace made no attempt to block
desegregation there. .
Thirteen of the 20 Negroes
who were turned back by State
troopers yesterday and went to-
school today were at TuSkegee.
There were five at Birmingham
and two at Mobile.
Mostly Peaceful
The transition was peaceful
at most of the schools but at
West End High School in Bir-
mingham several hundred white
pupils started jeering after two
Negro girls entered. The white
group refused to go into the
building.
Two teen-age Negroes walked
into Murphy High School at
Mobile before 7:30 am. to be-
come the first of their race to
attend school with white pupils
in the State at the high school
level. The Huntsville desegrega-
ton involved grammar and
junior high schools.
uardsme en-, under Gov.
Wallace's control for a few
hours, went on duty before
dawn at the Mobile school. But
they withdrew later to an
armory under Mr.. Kennedy's
LIBERALIZATION proclamation.
Police on Guard
Police were on guard at an
other high school and a gram
mar school in Birmingham but
were needed only to direct
! traffic, and there was little Of
! that. De m IN strators who
! clashed with police last We'd
nesday when desegregation first
was scheduled were absent to-
day.
! Henry Hobby, II, and Doro-
thy Bridget Davis. 16, were
; driven to the Mobile school by
a Negro minister. They Strolled
into the building while a hand
full of white pupils on the
grounds watched silently.
Gov. Wallace called the
Guard into service shortly after
midnight to keep Negroes out
of white schools at Birming- =
ham, Mobile and TuSkegee.
President Kennedy promptly
Federalized the Guard to re-
move control from the Cover
nor.

day used Guardsmen and State
troopers to chase Federal mar
