In Plainfield Stopped
Funerals Mark Newark Scene;
Violence Breaks Out Elsewhere
-Associated Press
STATE POLICE and National Guardsmen search homes in Plainfield, N.J., for a cache of stolen
weapons. Some houses were left neat by the searchers, while others were messes of broken glass,
upside-down furniture, and broken storage trunks.
VIET ELECTION NEARS:
Generals Say Political News'
No Longer Faces Censorship
By The Associated Press
An aimed task force of state
police and National Guardsmen
searched house by house for wea-
pons in riotous Negro neighbor-
hood yesterday, but pulled out
when the quest built tension.
They found no weapons.
One Negro leader said state po-
lice agreed to remove the forces
because an agreement not to enter
locked apartments had been vio-
latd. After searchers left, groups
of young Negroes gathered in the
streets complaining about the
search.
The search mission met no re-
sistance, despite an earlier warn-
ing of "vicious resistance" to any
invasion of the trouble zone sealed
off after a white policeman was
shot and stomped to death Sun-
day.
But Negroes objected as the
searchers tore off doors, turned.
over furniture and threw personal
belonging around while seeking
weapons.
A newsman heard a plain clothes
officer tell a Negro, "I know we;
promised you there would be no
breaking into apartments but ap-
parently somebody didnt get the
word. We're sorry and we're pull-
ing out."-
Newark
Elsewhere in racilly tense north-
ern New Jearsey, quiet prevailed.
Newark, where warlike sniping
battles claimed 25 lives, passed its
second normal day while funerals
were conducted for a slain white
fire captain and three Negro vic-
tims of riot bullets. A national
conference on black power also
opened in the city where Negro
violence raged for five days.
The Plainfield search was or-
dered after a noon deadline for
surrender of weapons passed with-
out any sign of the military rifles.
Racial incidents broke out in
Nyack, NY., and Erie, Pa., and
a house bombing in Baton Rouge,
La., was connected by a labor
leader with statements he made
against the Ku Klux Klan.
In Cario, Ill., the arrival of 50
National Guardsmen b r o u g h t
SAIGON (A')-South Vietnam's
ruling generals have decreed that,;
effective today, political news in
the Vietnam press no longer will
be censored.
The nation's newspapers pre-+
sumably will now be able to fill
in with news about the presiden-
tial election campaign some of the
white spaces that have been de-
noting censorship.
Stories concerning military af-
fairs, although freely transmitted
abroad, remain subject domesti-
cally to editing or deletion by!
government censors.
The move by the generals ap-
parently means that they feel.
they can control the press with-
out resorting to full censorship.
Bowed to Critics
But they have bowed to domes-
fair one for it to be meaningful,
pressed strongly for a removal of
political censorship. South Viet-
namese newsmen, although they
could not print the answers, fre-
quently asked the generals at
news conferences how they could
call this a free election if cen-
sorship continued.
Where the line between political
and military news is to be drawn
will still be up to the discretion of
the censors.
Sporadic shelling in the north-
ern 1st Corps area marked the
ground war on the eve yesterday
of the 13th anniversary of the!
Geneva agreement that was sup-
posed to bring peace and neu-
trality to Vietnam.
The South Vietnamese, who
never signed the agreement, are
observing the anniversary today
as "National Shame Day." That's
to express their disapproval of
the partition of the country in
the settlement that ended French
rule of Indochina.
peace after an outbreak of fire,
gunfire and stabbing.
Legal barriers against interra-
cial marriage were dropped in
Tennessee, and in Jerusalem the
president of the Zionist Organi-
zation of America said American
Jews have become disillusioned
with the civil rights movement.
Jacques, Torcznyer told a news
conference in Jerusalem that
Jews have been disappointed by
anti-Semitic statements by mili-
tant Negro leaders, and by attacks
on Jewish shops during New York
riots.
Outsiders
A claim that outsiders stirred
up trouble in Plainfield was made
by Milt Campbell, decathlon
champion in the 1956 Olympics
who returned to his home town
to help restore peace.
"Those men' whocame in and
started this violence have moved
out I believe," Campbell said.
Violence erupted in Plainfield
last Friday night and hit its peak
Sunday when a gang of Negro
youths shot and beat a white
policeman to death.
kA few shots punctured the
calm at Plainfield on Tuesday
night, and a search of the city's
sealed-off Negro district for the
rifles renewed tensions. Charles
Miller, Negro vice president of
the city's Human Rights Council,
told the National Guard that an
invasion of the area would be met
with "vicious 'retaliation."
The Baton Rouge bombing out-
side the home of Victor Bussie,
president of the Louisiana AFL.-
CIO, was connected by him with
what he called his comments
urging an investigation of bomb-
ings in which the Ku Klux Klan
had been accused.

Arabs Discuss Plans

A Cairo summit conference of
five militant Arab leaders ended
yesterday after a discussion of
preparations for "a second round"
against Israel, informants in the
Egyptian capital reported.

Reliable sources said the Alge-

strongly urged Moscow to push up
their arms support to the Arabs,
who are impatient to reclaim the
land lost to Israel in the June 5-10
war.
Neither Moscow nor Cairo made
public the Soviet reaction to this
request, save for a statement de-
claring Soviet backing.

The militant Arabs have been
meeting in Cairo for eight days,
excluding from their meetings
such conservative Arab leaders as.
those from Jordan, Saudi Arabia,
Tunisia and Morocco.
Boumedienne Militant
Of the five, Boumedienne has,
been the most militant, demanding
action now against Israel. But his
nation did not sustain damaging
blows like those inflicted by Israel
on Egypt, Jordan and Syria.
