Railroad1ruce Extension WASHINGTON (F)) - The Sen- ate Labor Committee approved 14- 0 last night a resolution asked by President Johnson extending for 20 days the no-strike period in the rail shopcraft dispute. Sen. Lister Hill, (D-Ala.), said the measure will be taken up for Senate debate Tuesday soon after the body meets at 11 a.m. EST, an hour ahead of the normal time. House leaders plan' to bring up a companion resolution at the same time. Reject Voluntary Extension The Senate panel was called back into session last night after collapse of its efforts to arrange a voluntary extension of the dead- line for the walkout that threat- ens to pile a nation-wide rail strike on top of the trucking shut- down. Union representatives rejected the proposal. The union turndown came in the face of an urgent request by President Johnson for congres- sional action to force an exten- sion of the statutory no-strike cooling-off period that runs out at midnight tomorrow. Members of the Senate Labor Committee, meeting on Johnson's request, urged 'union and manage- ment spokesmen to recommend a voluntary agreement that would make congressional action un- necessary.- Resume Bargaining The railways reported back ,. through J. E. Wolfe, chairman of the National Railway Labor Con- ference, that they were willing to resume wage bargaining talks as soon as the six AFL-CIO shop- craft unions agreed to the exten- sion.I But Joseph Ramsey of the Ma- chinists Union, one of the labor spokesmen, said, "We turned it down." ."They tried to get the monkey off their back and pin it on ours," Ramsey told reporters, "but we don't go along with that." Johnson, preparing to leave for the Punta del Este summit con- Sference in South America., asked Congress in a special message to head off the threatened rail strike. And he asked also that the Jus- tice Department determine wheth- er. an 80-day injunction can be obtained to halt the trucking shut- down. Crippling Impact The crippling impact of the truck lockout was felt swiftly in the automobile industry with all the principal manufacturers in the Detroit area and elsewhere scheduling substantial cutbacks for today in the wake of rather limited effects yesterday. In Chicago, Zenith Corp., manu- facturer of television and radio' sets, announced the immediate' closing of all seven of its plants,; idling 10,000. BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (A') - Mao Tse-tung apparently won his victory over President Liu Shao- chi in the Politburo Standing Committee by stacking that high- est policy body in Red China with his followers, a Tanjug News Agency dispatch from Peking said NASHVILLE, Tenn. (P) - Gun-. shots last night broke an uneasy peace which had prevailed for 12 hours and sent police to Nash- ville's Negro college area, scene of two straight nights of rioting. Several shots were heard near] groups, one of them predominant. ly white, in Nashville last week. Meanwhile, Dr. James R. Law- son, acting president of Fisk, said, "There were at most a dozen Fisk students actively involved" in the rioting. Lawson also commended Nash- ville police "for the splendid han- dling of this. I don't see how they stand up under such abuse." The president said the only damage to the campus was several broken windows and a damaged dormitory door. Lawson and Fisk Student Coun- cil President Lucious Outlaw also denied statements of some rioters that their actions were a "protest against the domination of Fisk University by whites." yesterday.

But he pre' cted some action against them soon. Bogunovic sala only tne addi- tion of four members to the Standing Committee, possibly at the plenary session of the Central Committee last August, permitted Mao to win a 6-5 victory in his -struggle with Liu after two weeks of sessions ending early this month. Reactionary Then according to Tanjug. the Standing Committee condemned the rebellious five for "persistent adherence to the bourgeois reac- tionary line." But the five, including Liu, re- main members of the Standing Committee in spite of all attacks, Gogunovic noted. This is because the Central Committee of the par- ty must act to expel them, and Liu is believed to have strong sup- port there. Bogunovic said that according tthe published list of those who opposed and supported Mao, only three of the former Standing Committee of seven were for con- demning the Liu group. These were the party chairman himself, Defense Minister Lin Piao, his heir apparent, and Pre- mier Chou En-lai. Arrayed against them were Liu, Teng Hsiao-peng, the party gen- eral secretary; old Marshal Chu Teh, Mao's old comrade in arms who broke with him over the cur- rent purge, and Deputy Premier Chen Yun. Then four were added to the Standing Committee, all support- ers of Mao. They were Chen Po-ta, Mao's purge chief; Kang Sheng, a former secret poice official; Li Fu-chun, a deputy premier and close friend of Chou who bosses the economy as state Planning Commission chairman, and Tao. Chu. But after climbing to the No. 4 position in the party hierarchy as propaganda chief last summer, Tao split with Mao and turned up voting for Liu, the Tanjug dis- patch added. Lliu, Teng, Chu, Chen and Tao were condemned for refusing to submit to the gmao line and not supporting the Cultural Revolu- tion-as the purge is called, Bo- gunovic wrote. At the Standing Committee ses- sion, Liu and Teng were singled out as leaders of the "three against group" - which means against Mao, socialism, and the Communist party, he said. groes, began gathering in the Fisk University area some 20 blocks away. Police fired four rounds of tear ga and a shotgun warning at an estimated 300 students near Ten- nessee State. The crowd scattered. It was only the second time in three nights of rioting that police- men had reserted to tear gas toI disperse a mob.! Mayor Briley Earlier yesterday afternoon, Mayor Beverly Briley promised that "law and order will prevail." He expressed belief that policemen had the situation in hand and termed the disturbances, includ- ing gunfire, rock and brick throw- ing, gasoline bombs and several fires, an "insurrection." Gov. Buford Ellington was re- ported in close touch with the sit- uation, but a spokesman said he had received no "request for use of either the National Guard or the highway patrol." A Negro student was shot in the neck and many others, includ- ing newsmen and policement, suf- fered less severe injuries. Of more than 50 persons arrest- ed, nine were charged with incit- ing to riot. Two of them were George Washington Ware, Atlan- ta, and Ernest Stephens, Tuskegee Ala.. both aides of Stokely Car- michael, the black power advocate. A hearing for Ware and Ste- phens yesterday was postponed until May 13 to give them time to get a lawyer. Carmichael, head of the Student Non - Violent Coordinating Com- mittee, spoke to three college PUNTA DEL ESTE, Uruguay (A') -Latin-American chiefs began ar- riving for the hemisphere summit conference yesterday under secur- ity arrangements that turned this South American sea resort into a virtual military fortress. President Johnson is due today. Uruguayan warships patroled offshore. Antiaircraft - batteries nestled in strategic spots. Urug- uayan soldiers and police guarded a three-square-mile security zone surrounding the chalet where Johnson will stay on the ocean- side. They patroled on foot, horse- back, and in cars. The conference, aimed at pump- ing new life into the alliance for progress and raising Latin Ameri- can living standards, opens to- morrow in the gambling casino of the plush San Rafael hotel. Secretary of State Dean Rusk, who arrived last week, and Latin American foreign ministers have been preparing the agenda for the summit meeting over the past few days. Discussions have centered chief- ly on increasing U.S. aid to Latin America, a Latin-American com- mon market and the easing of re- strictions on the flow of Latin- American goods into U.S. markets. Latin Americans are asking the United States to permit them to purchase goods with U.S. aid mon- ey in countries other than the United States. One U.S. concession might be permission to use the money within a Latin-American common market. A march of Communist youths to "repudiate" the summit confer. ence in general and President Johnson in particular was contin- uing along its 70-mile route from Montevideo to Punta del Este. But 100 of the original 200 marchers have dropped out. Uruguay Hosts Conference For Hemisphere's :Leaders SAIGON, (/')-Troops of the newest U.S. Army division in Viet- nam killed 166 battle-hardened Viet Cong in a two-day fight that ended last night just 20 miles southwest of Saigon. The increased tempo of ground fighting con- tinued elsewhere in the war. Over-all enemy casualties after 24 hours of fighting - chiefly around Saigon-left 315 Commu- nists dead, the U.S. Command re- were 4 men killed and 79 wounded. ported U.S. casualties reported Thirty of the wounded were Mar- ines aboard an Amtrac that hit a mine 14 miles southwest of Da Nang. At the same time the command acknowledged that U.S. warplanes have been dropped cluster bomb units all along in raids on North Vietnam Such units are canisters' containing 800 small bombs about the size of a fist with a damage capability of 800 hand grenades. U.S officials said they are used against anti-aircraft guns and crews, surfaceto-air missile sites, radar installations and such "thin- skinned"' targets and light armor. The bombs are also called anti- personnel bombs The Communists have charged the mobs are aimed at killing or maiming civilians. The biggest Communist losses in the ground actions were in the two-day clash near Rach Kien,I southwest of Saigon Two communist battalions, to- taling about 750 men, came under attack by a battalion of the 39th Regiment of the U.S. 9th Infantry Division - the "Old Reliables" - which began arriving in South Vietnam Dec. 19 mainly for opera- tions in the Mekong River Detta, a Communist stronghold for 20 years. In another action yesterday, the Viet Cong shelled an American army division base camp. The at- tack was with recoiless rifles against the 25th Division head- quarters at Cu Chi, 25 miles north- west of Saigon. World News Roundup Humphrey Completes Mission to Europe By The Associated Press , NEW DELHI, India-U.N. Sec- retary-General U Thant declared last night that without cessation of American bombing of North Vietnan "I do not believe there will be any move toward peace." Speaking at a state banquet given in his honor by Prime Min- ister Indira Gandhi, Thant said of the Vietnam war, "My personal feeling is it is a very unequal com- bat. It has potentalities of grow- ing into a wider war and spilling over its frontiers." Thant, in for a four-day state visit, said peace in Vietnam has been "one of my obsessions. It sseems to me this is one of the most barbarous wars in history." NEW YORK-The stock market took a severe setback in fairly ac- tive trading yesterday. The Dow Jones average of 30 industrials closed off 10.91 points at 842.43. The New York Stock Exchange Common Stock Index showed a loss of 60 cents in the average price of a share. * * * NEW ORLEANS-The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals refused yesterday to recall or delay its total school integration order for six Southern states. The court turned down recall petitions by Louisiana and Ala- bama. It issued only a brief notice that the motions were denied. No reason was given. Voters Expected To Re-elect Powell in Harlem Balloting. NEW YORK OP)-Harlem goes to the polls today and is expected to reelect Adam Clayton Powell to the Congress which expelled him. The question is whether there will be a big turnout to protest the expulsion of the 58-year-old Negro congressman-or whether the voters will stay home from complacency. "Everybody is sure that Powell will be reelected," said his cam- paign chairman, L. Joseph Over- ton. "This complacency may stop them from coming out and vot- ing." He said the campaign was short of funds to advertise the protest-vote angle. Powell, 'elected every two years since 1944, did not campaign in person. He can be arrested for contempt of court if he returns from his island retreat at Bimini, the Bahamas. His opponents, both Negroes, are Lucille Pickett Williams, 50, Re- publican, an attractive, articulate and veteran GOP worker; and the Rev. Ervin F. Yearling, 38, Conservative, a Baptist preacher like Powell. Mrs. Williams did not campaign either and said she "never had any illusions about beating Adam." Yearling, however, professed to be optimistic on his chances. He campaigned against open housing, and integration and called Powell "depraved and degenerate." The Conservative party is a right-wing offshoot of the New York GOP, which has been doing better in every recent election, but not too well in Harlem. WASHINGTON UP) -President Johnson welcomed Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey yesterdayi from a turbulent mission to Eur- ope and said the west cannot at- tain its ambitions until "the an- cient world of Asia" is a full part- ner in progress. Amid pomp and military cere- mony on the south lawn of the White House, Johnson said the Vice President carried that mes- sage to the leaders of Europe. "You have carried to them our viction that peace, like freedom, is indivisible," Johnson told the vice president. "Neither the New World of the Americans nor the Old World of Europe, can hope to fulfill its dreams and ambitions until the ancient world of Asia has become' a full and equal partner in the forward movement of man. ' Demonstrations Humphrey encountered shout-1 ing, egg-throwing demonstrators, protesting the Vietnam war, in five1 European cities. Nevertheless, he was said to feel the mission had achieved diploma- tic successes, and reasured Euro- pean leaders that the United States will not turn its back on them despite its troubles in Asia. In Paris, the United States of- ficially protested the anti-Amer- ican demonstrations which oc- curred during Humphrey's visit. Robert H. McBride, embassy min- ister, delivered the oral protest to the foreign ministry. The incidents occurred Friday. Soviet Union The Soviet Union took note of the demonstrations in a Pravda report which said Humphrey's missin was a failure. "Our friends in. Eurpe remain our good friends," Humphrey told Johnson at the White House." We do have reason for optimism." Humphrey will make a full re- port to the President later, and some believe he may recommend that Johnson undertake a similar journey to Europe. Wed., April 12, 8:00 P.M.
