Man Acquitted
InCross Burning

PETERSBURG, Va, June IL
(AP).-James Ben Roe, a
Richmond barber, was found
not guilty in Petersburg Hus-
tings Court yesterday on
charges Of burning a cross in
front Of a Petersburg church.
An usher at the Guillfield
Baptist Church on Perry street
told the court he could not pos
itively identify Mr.. Roe as the
man who set the fire.
Army Sergt. T. D. Fielder told
Judge Oliver A. Pollard he saw
three men get out Of q dark
colored 1859 Chevrolet in front
Of the church. He said two of
them ran back to the car after
helping erect a cross in the
court yard Of the church.
Sergt. Fielder said one Of the
men stayed in the court yard
and lit the cross before return
ing to the car. When asked by
the judge whether he could
identify Mr.. Roe as the man
who set the fire, Sergt. Fielder
said: mo. sir. 1t was rather

White House sounded out the
networks for evening time for
an address by the President.
The Attorney General left
his command post again. About
8 pm. he drove over to the
White House with Mr.. Marshall
to confer briefly with the Presi-
dent.
He got back TO the command
post for Gov. Wallace's second
appearance in the doorway Of
the college auditorium.
At $40, when Gov. Wallace
had driven away from the
campus and the students had
gone through the line of Fed
eralized guardsmen, theoreti-
cally the Attorney Generals
mission for the day was over.
But only theoretically. Photog-
raphers who had waited out

The Attorney General and Mr..
Marshall put on their top
jackets and posed-looking at

went to the White House to be
with his brother during the
address to the Nation. Then he
returned to his Justice Depart
ment desk to go over the work
that had piled up during the
day in fields far removed from
civil rights.
But before he checked out,
he went to the telephone again.
This time, he made thank you
calls to the people Of Tusca-

making a day Of challengt look

/ law. Later the law in its orig
inal and recodified versions
was used by President Cleve-
land to suppress the Pullman
strike In 1894 and by President
Eisenhower to enforce the court
ordered school desegregation at
Little Rock, Ark, in 1857.
The Attorney General and
President Kennedy were no
strangers to the same law. 1t
had last been invoked by Presi-
dent Kennedy to suppress the
riots on the Ole Miss campus
when James Meredith was ad-
mitted as the first Negro stu
dent last fall. At Mississippi,
however. the riots had forced
the President to telescope the
action.
Instead of issuing the proc
lamation giving the governor
a chance to obey and then is
suing thu executive order call
ing out the troops. the Presi-
dent was forced by the rioting
on the Mississippi campus To
proclaim aid order at the same
time. This time, as the
strategists had worked 1t out,
1t would be more orderly. With
no riots to worry about, the
proclamation was issued In ad-
vance Of the action.
Last-Minute Check
AS the hour of conformation
approached. Mr.. Katzenbach
checked once more with the
Attorney General before leav-
ing the command post for the
Alabama campus.
BY radio telephone from the
scene, by television and radio
the Attorney General followed
the conformation and its ex-
Ipected finale-Mr. Katzenbach
escorting Miss Vivian Malone
to her dormitory to await later
developments.
Once the Negro students were
settled In their dormitories, Mr.
Katzenbach gave the Attorney
General a briefing on the &C
ton.
The next step had to come
from Washington-the execu-
tive order giving the go-ahead
signal to the Defense Depart.
ment to use the necessary Army
or militia to enforce the laws
Of the United States. The Pres
ident signed that, order at 1894
pm.
While the Defense Depart
ment was putting out its or

It was a long day for Attor-
ney General Robert F. Kennedy
more than Is hours on the
job.
AS it ended, shortly after 8
pm. yesterday. the Attorney
General reflected aloud:
Everybody is going to say it
was so easy, but it could have
been so tough"
Months Of planning - dat
ing back to the Attorney Gen.
erals visit to Gov. George Wal
lace Of Alabama in April-con-
tributed to making the enroll
ment of James Hood and Miss
Vivian Malone in the University
Of ALBANIA look easy.
But the final details Of the
strategy. according to the At
torney general himself, we're
not settled until 10 an, yester-
day. 1t was then that Mr.. Ken
nedy and Deputy Attorney Gen.
eral Nicholas de B. Katzen-
bach made their final decision
on the exact words Mr.. Katzen-
bach would use If Gov. Wallace
made his promised stand in
the schoolhouse door to block
the admission Of two Negro
students.
1t was also during these last
minute strategy sessions that
the decision was made to escort
the students to their dormitories
without registering rather than
risk the unpleasant conse-
quences Of a face-to-face meet
ing Of students and Governor
On Phone Early
The Attorney General
reached his Justice Department
office at 8:45 am, yesterday,
which was 6:45 am. in Tusca-
loosa. Mr.. Kennedy had started
his day of telephone confer
ences with Mr.. Katzenbach in
Alabama nearly an hour earlier
They had mapped out their
MISUNDERSTANDING all posi-
BILE alternatives - before Mr.,
Katzenbach went to Tuscaloosa
Now they were revised. And
the revisions were substantial.
1t was like a fencing match.
They had to be ready to parry
every thrust by the Governor
But this was to be different
from the sequence Of events
last fall at the University OF
Mississippi when Gov. Ross
Barnett assured the President
and the Attorney General there
would be no trouble-and Their
withdrew police from the
campus of "Ole Miss" when
they were needed most.
This time, there would be M
private conferences with the
Governor on the eve of the
students attempt to register
The only contact with Alabama
authorities would be with the
chief of the State police to
make sure the campus woulc
be controlled.

whipping into shape the docu-
ments that probably would be
needed before the students
were able to register.
Two documents had to be
ready-a presidential procla-
nation and an executive order,
Across the hall from the At
torney Generals office the
press was gatherings score
Of newsmen from northern and
southern newspapers, television
and radio men.
Within the Attorney Gen.
erals office, at least ten of his
top aides had gathered. Among
them was Assistant Attorney
General Burke Marshall in
charge Of the Civil Rights Di-
vision.
Eyes on TV Set
In front Of the Attorney Gen.
erals desk was a television set
which he glanced at regularly
to make sure he didn't miss the
conformation to come. A ra-
do was beside his resk. On his
desk was a set of push buttons
with an open line to Mr.. Kat
zenbach's command post at the
Army reserve headquarters in
Tuscaloosa. And behind his
desk was q bank Of four tele-
phones.
on tables and spread out on
the floor were three yard
square maps-a road map Of
the Tuscaloosa area, O street
map of the town and a sketch
Of the campus. He could follow
the progress Of the action vis
these maps.
Shortly after noon - three.
quarters of an hour before the
students appeared on the cam
pus-the President issued the
proclamation whipped into fina
shape at the Justice Depart
ment.
The law was q section of the
Armed Forces chapter Of the
United States Code entitled
Proclamation to Dispense. II
says simply that whenever the
President considers it necessary
to use the militia or the armed
forces under this chapter, hi
shall by proclamation immedi-
ately order the insurgents tc
disperse and retire peacefully
to their abodes within a limited
time"
Two Main Purposes
The proclamation ordering
the Governor to "disperse"-ir
other words to obey the orders
of the court-was designed II
accomplish two purposes. I
gave the Governor an oppor'
tunity to change his mind anC
1t served as the necessary pre-
liminary to armed intervention

under an earlier law, was frs
used by President Grant il
1871 as the basis of calling ou

Cousin Oriole flew to Dali

Oriole wasn't too keen about
flying, but the Vice President
asked a friend to help her into
the plane and shut the door.

From BurIup
To Mink
Easily Done

You've heard the remark,
"She'd look good wearing
burlap."
Yesterday, at the preview
Of UP and coming fur fash
ions at Capitol Furs the re-
mark proved true.
Model Toni Bailey, who
comes from sunny Italy, wore
Micol Fontana's burlap cape
"toile," which will be trans
lated into such furs as Rus
sian broadtail, mink. and
mole later on. "Capes In all
lengths and in all furs" are
the fashion to come, says Mr..
Norman Silverman, the store
president.
The Fontana fur designs
will be on an exclusive Wash
ington basis with Capitol
Furs, he told us. The trans
action took place on a recent
fashion foray by Mr.. Sam
Katz Of the shop, into Paris
and Rome. This was fur man
Katz's first fashion trip
abroad. He not only brought
back some interesting fashion
news Of what was being
worn; what will be worn; and
what may be worn II the
fashion moguls have their
say; he did the bit Of buying
shirts, having a suit made,
and coming back q real
square where his shoes are
concerned. Square toes are
in with the men who like to
wear elegant "~loafers."
Here are some of MI. Katz's
European fashion observa-
tons:
The more off beat the fur,
the more European women
seem to like it. He sees long
haired furs moving in very
strongly. Guanaco worked
horizontally is one fashion
thought along this line.
"A great deal Of ombred
brown Persian lamb seems
to be arriving on the fur
scene for Fall.
White fur coats for day
time not done in mink, but
rather in Indian Broadtail
or oyster muskrat will make
a big fashion splash. For the
women in white, who don't
wish it to fade away, the
reassuring word from both
Mr.. Silverman and Mr.. Katz
is, during the lifetime of
such a garment it can be
rebleached at least two or
three times.
"A new sleeve treatment
from the house of Nina Ricci
also bears watching this COM
ing Fall. It's the Czarina
sleeve. From a small base it
widens into full bloom at the
cuff. On a wrap coat in

Cousin OrioIe Does 7 oIkinq,
Vice President the Listening.
BY LEE WALSH
Star Women's Editor

LBJ RANCH, Texas, April
30.-Y'all come on down and
let's meet Cousin Oriole.
Cousin Oriole is Vice Presi-
dent Lyndon Johnson's elder
cousin who lives down the
Pedernales River a way from
his ranch, and as we say
around here. she Is "old
Texas" And ''Old Texas"
contains many characters.
To give you an idea. You
accompany the Vice Presi-
dent down to her house. Her
little home sits on the banks
OF the Pedernales River. and
her front porch contains a
brass bed which she uses when
the heat Of Texas is over
whelming, and a cool breeze
might blow up the valley.
Barefoot Philosophy
She invites you in for an
evening on the porch, bare
foot, but clad in her best
black dress. "Sit down,
honey" she says. And If you
are a later arrival, you find
the Vice President stretched
out on the brass bed on the
front porch, listening to
Cousin Orioles philosophy.
"She Is the only person in
Texas who makes Lyndon lis
ten to her." says a member
OF the family. 1t is standard
knowledge in the Pedernales
valley that most people lis
ten to the Vice President. But
not Cousin Oriole. She does
the talking. and the Vice
President does the listening.
She is a member Of the
little known Christidelphian
religious sect which doesn't
believe In voting, but 1t is
rumored, with authenticity,
that Oriole has voted for
her cousin.
Pedernales Blues
The character known as
Cousin Oriole is really Mrs.
j. w. Bailey. She took to
writing poetry some time
ago. Many Of her poems are
signed after her husbands
death. when I couldn't
Sleep" Perhaps her best
known poem is the Peder-
males pronounced Perdi-
nales) Blues.
Got no socks
Got no shoes
But I got those
Perdindles Blues.
Arthur Godfrey came down
to the LBJ Ranch to visit
the Vice President, and Of
course he took the radio and
television star down to meet
Cousin Oriole. She met him,
again barefoot, and read him
her poems and Godfrey had
them published for her.
AS fresh a personality as
she is, she is not entirely I'M
aware Of the ways of the
world. When a reporter asked
for some Of her poems, she
said: I'm have to have them
copyrighted first"
Over the week end, guests
at the LBJ Ranch called on
Cousin Oriole q number of
times. They sat on her
screened-in front porch. Wis
tied with her. went into her
living room, noted the figur-
ines Of red birds perched
about the room and watched
the world go by.

bourg Perle Mesta and Mrs.
