TUESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1960 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE TUESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1966 'CUE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE Gromyko at White House Conference President Johnson, Soviet Minister Talk In Closed Discussion WASHINGTON (P) - President Johnson and Soviet Foreign Min- ister Andrei A. Gromyko had yes- terday what the White House de- scribed as a "frank and wide- ranging discussion in a business- like atmosphere." The two, meeting at the White House for an hour and 45 minutes, discussed a number of subjects of *R mutual concern, White House aide George Christian told reporters. Gromyko came and went from the White House through a back door so that the crowd of waiting reporters were not able to see him. Improve Relations The meeting was expected to in- Selude discussion of Johnson's pro- posals for improving elations .be- tween the United States and the Soviet Union and to get Moscow's reactions to the proposals John- son made Friday in a New York speech. Christian said he could not list the subjects the two men discuss ed.. Before Gromyko left, Johnson invited Democratic congressional leaders to meet brietly with the foreign minister, Christian said. Shook Hands Only Christian said, in response to questions, that the legislators real- ly only shook hands with the for- eign minister without engaging in discussions with him. They were waiting for a sched- uled meeting with the President. Gromyko left the White House R for the State Department. Gromyko carefully avoided ma- king a side trip to Washington last year when he attended the United Nations General Assembly in New York, as if underlining differences between the two countries over Vietnam. He is reported to have -agreed immediately to come and see the President this year. Meets Rusks In addition to the President and the Soviet foreign minister, Secre- tary of State Dean Rusk, Ambas- sador-at-Large Llewelyn Thomp- son, presidential advisor Walt W. Rostow, and Soviet Ambassador Anatole Y. Dobrynin participated in the conference. Thompson, the administration's No. 1 Soviet expert, was recently appointed the new U.S. ambassa- dor to Moscow. Although A m e r i c a n officials cautioned against attaching too much importance to Gromyko's change of attitude, they appeared to agree that some guarded op- timism concerning Moscow's in- terest in the Johnson proposals was justified. *I Proliferation Issue Moreover, some officials pre- dicted that Monday's meeting could bring two specific issues closer to an agreement: one is a treaty to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, the other an agreement guaranteeing that the moon and other celestial bodies be used for peaceful purposes only. There was, on the other hand, little hope that the meeting would change the Soviet position on Vietnam. Yet Vietnam obviously 'was a big issue Johnson wanted to dis- cuss, urging Gromyko that his country stop watching the war from the sidelines and exert its undeniable influence on Hanoi to sit down and negotiate. There was, American officials believe, a slight change in the Soviet position in this regret. Ear- lier, Moscow insisted that the United States must get out from Vietnam as a precondition of a negotiated settlement. Recent comments in Moscow's government-controlled press indi- cated that the Soviets would be satisfied if the United States stopped the bombing. Beyond the Vietnam issue there were signs of renewed Soviet in- terest in talking about other prob- lems. CINEMA Presents PETER SELLERS GEORGE C. SCOTT in DR.

INTEGRATION STILL GOAL: Civil Rights Moderates Meet To Exorcise Black Poluwer NEW YORK ((P)) - Negro leaders in the moderate wing of the civil rights movement say they may issue soon a manifesto dis- owning proponents of "black pow- er." Confirming that talks with this aim are going on, A. Philip Ran- dolph, president of the AFL-CIO Brotherhood of Sleeping Car -Por- ters, said yesterday "Black power is a menace to racial peace and- prosperity. No Negro who is fighting for civil rights can support black power, which is opposed to civil rights and integration." Others taking part in the dis- cussions include Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference; Roy Wilkins, executive secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Whitney M. Young, Jr., executive director of the National Urban Leagues and Dorothy Height, pre- sident of the National Council of Negro Women. "What we have in mind," said Dr. John Morsell, assistant nation- al director of the NAACP, "is a statement which will clarify the civil rights movement-what its goals are -and what .they are not. "The NAACP will work with oth- er groups to the extent they are able to operate on these principles. If they can't, it's their business." The proposed manifesto would be aimed primarily at the Congress of Racial Equality and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Commit- tee. Floyd McKissick, national di- rector of CORE, and Stokely Car- michael, executive secretary of the student committee are "black pow- er advocates." In Philadelphia, King said he would hold a-conference "retreat" Thursday, Friday and Saturday in Atlanta, Ga., to determine whether his group and the black power or- ganizations are so diametrically opposite that they can't work to- power, as we've said many times, gether. we are talking about the search Whitney Young, director of the for economic power, political pow- National Urban League, said the er. league "has had a series of dis- "All along there have been ide- cussions with other civil rights ological differences.

Adam Clayton Powell's three-year legal battle to avoid paying a $160,000 libel judgment led to his convic- tion yesterday of willful contempt of court. An all-white jury found the Ne- gro congressman from Harlem guilty of illegally evading five se- parate court orders in the pro- tracted libel action. Powell, a Democrat, laid the groundwork for an appeal of the verdict in advance when he and his lawyers boycotted the trial, claiming the State Supreme Court lacked jurisdiction in the case. The maximum penalty under the jury's verdict is 30 days in jail and a $250 fine on each of the five counts. State Supreme Court Justice Mathew M. Levy withheld sentencing until the mat- ter of jurisdiction is threshed out. Powell owes $160,000 in libel damages to a Harlem widow, Es- ther James, 68, as a result of a jury's 1963 decision that he libeled her. In a 1960 television broadcast, he called, her a bag woman, or graft collector, for the police de- partment. Since the original libel verdict, the case has been in eight differ- ent courts, and more than 70 judg- es have taken part in it at vari- ous times. During the legal proceedings, Powell five times ignored court subpoenas for his appearance to undergo financial examination - once in 1963, twice in 1964 and twice last year. Powell claimed that as a congressman he was im- mune to the subpoena. Last Aug. 12, State Supreme Court Justice Ilrving Saypol cited Powell for criminal contempt. He directed that a jury trial be held to determine the extent of Pow- ell's "willfulness" in ignoring the subpoenas. A jury of nine men and three women was selected for the trial last Wednesday. However, Powell never appeared in court and his four defense lawyers walked out after Levy deferred the matter of jurisdiction until after the trial. bandrio Becomes karno s Strength a Cabinet which he said woud combine nationalism, religion and communism - nasakom.

Denies Knowledge Sukarno, in a statement read Saturday night during Subandrio's trial, denied any knowledge of the Communist coup plans. Buy evidence, supported by Su- bandrio, has already been made public which appears to implicate Sukarno. The prosecution read a letter sent to Sukarno on or about the day of the coup from the Com- munist party.chairman, D. N. Ai- dit. In the letter, Aidit told Su- karno not to condemn the Com- munists, informed him all poli- tical parties would remain calm, and that the national police would larity. Specific points are never pressed or followed up. But Indonesians note that in Java there is never direct con- frontation between two opposing forces. It must be done slowly and in- directly, they said. Thus, slowly and indirectly, the' trial touches only lightly on Su- karno's name and image chipping away at his status. The anti-Sukarno students of Jakarta want him thrown out, But army leaders, including strong man Gen. Suharto, fear that too fast a move could trigger massive resistance in central and east Java, where Sukarno remains a highly popular figure., Diplomats believe the trials in- volving in the Communist party and the coup attempt are exercises in undermining Sukarno's image.
