"And it is just such wrongs that this bill is directed against," Keat- ing said in opening the fifth week of debate on the civil rghts bill. Sen. Thomas J.

DOUGLAS MIacARTHUR MacArthur Dies at 84 By MICHAEL HARRAH, Death has come to an old sol- dier; Gen. Douglas MacArthur, veteran of two world wars and hero to people all over the world died Sunday in Walter Reed Army Hospital at the age of 84. MacArthur, retired from active duty since 1951, had been in ro- bust health on his birthday just two months ago, but had been experiencing a difficult recovery following an operation in late February. His death resulted from these complications. Born on Jan. 26, 1880, in Little Rock, Ark., Douglas MacArthur was the son of Lt. Gen. Arthur MacArthur, himself a Congression- al Medal of Honor winner as his son was to be years later. He enr- tered the United, States Military Academy at West Point, graduated in 1903 and entered the army as a second lieutenant in the En- 'gineer Corps. He advanced through the ranks, being, made a general in 1939, and general of the armies in 1944. Pacific Commander He commanded forces in both France and Germany during the First World War and the American forces in the Pacific from the outbreak of the Second World War until his retirement. It was during the .Korean con-= flict that MacArthur was relieved of his command by President Harry S. Truman, in a dispute over the Allied policy of non- aggression against the North Koreans and the Chinese Com- munists. That was in 1951, and Mac- Arthur retired to his New York apartment after a dramatic and moving address to Congress. He was quickly made chairman of the board of the Remington Rand Corp. (now Sperry-Rand), a posi- tion he held to his death., The tributes to MacArthur have been many and profuse, but per- haps the most fitting one was simple: "In many respects," Sen.; Richard Russell (D-Ga) intoned quietly, "he was the most remark-l able man I have ever known." piling registration and voting sta- tistics by race, color, religion and national origin, creation of a com- munity relations service to mediate racial disputes, and permitting ap- peals of decisions of federal judges who refuse to consider transfer- ring civil rights cases from state to federal courts. In another speech, Sen. Hugh Scott (R-Pa) said the civil rights commission, which would be ex- tended for four years under tlv bill, should be made a permanen agency. Scott said he will offer an amendment to this effect later. The bill's backers are expected to complete their presentations this week. 'Turn Clock Back' Keating, leading off for the civil rights proponents, said the Mississippi legislators, "uncumber- ed by the filibuster rule and other such limitations on prompt ac- tion," have been considering a se- ries of measures "designed to turn the clock back on human free- dom." r Among other proposals, Keating mentioned a package of election law revisions which critics say would destroy the Republican par- ty in Mississippi. "This law apparently is design- ed to supplement intimidation and the most restrictive voting pro- cedures and laws in the nation, as a means of perpetuating control by those now in power," Keating said. Bills Pass Senate The bills have passed the state senate and are now before the house in Jackson. One measure would require ex- tensive local and county organiza- tions, which the Republicans do not have, to give a party legal standing. Another would require that any party's candidate would have to win at least 10 per cent of the eli- gible vote in a primary election in order to get on the general elec- tion ballot. Describes Bills Keating told the Senate the aim of the bills is to "perpetuate one-party rule by making it as difficult as possible for any minor- ity party candidates to get on the ballot." Majority Leader Mike Mansfield said he has no idea when voting will start on proposed amendments to the bill.

Says Battle Would Kill Half World Claints Communists Struggle for Minds KAZINOBARCIKA, Hungary (A) -Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev declared yesterday the United States government judges the world soberly while Red China sees possible good in a war that might wipe out half of mankind. Discarding a prepared- text, Khrushchev struck hard at China's leaders. By contrast, he noted the late President John F. Kennedy said that total war in a nuclear wage "makes no sense," and added he thought President Lyndon B. Johnson has views similar to his predecessor. "The Chinese leaders say it would not be a bad thing to have a war-one half of the peo- ple in the world would be de- stroy4d and the other half sur- vive," he told workers at a chem- ical plant in this northern indus- trial city. "They say that after some time women again would bear children and mankind would be as before. People who think like that do not show an over- abundance of brains but rather a lack of them. Fears War "I say it is only a child or an idiot who does not fear war. If Hitler had knowndhow World War II would end and, that he would shoot himself, he probably would not have started the war." Referring to Peking's accusa- tion that Khrushchev shrinks from war, Khrushchev said: "Shall we start war with the capitalist countries? With what country shall we start first, with France, West Germany, Italy or Great Britain? Will Not Interfere "Do these countries consist only of capitalists and imperialists? No, there are peasants, workers and intellectuals. We were not asked by these people to interfere In their internal affairs." The Red Chinese assert that So- viet leaders shun violence and practice peaceful coexistence be- cause their nation has grown rela- tively prosperous, that they are only concerned with a better life and the old revolutionary zeal is gone. Khrushchev spent a great deal of his speech developing the thesis that he is using in the struggle for control of the minds in the world Communist movement: that the people should work harder to pro- vide the comforts and goods that make for better living. "If our-the proletarian-sys- tem gave us less than capitalist countries, people would say: 'what the devil do they want this for, if one is worse than the other?' "We need good houses, clothes -winter, autumn and summer clothing. We need schools, hos- pitals, universitlees. We need all the things that make life richer and finer." CHAPEL HILL (1')-Sen. J. W. Fulbright (D-Ark), who 12 days ago touched off an explosive de- bate on foreign policy,, now says "the American people are not now exercising effective control over the military, and neither is the Congress." The charge by the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Com- mittee seemed almost certain to stir another controversy-this time with the Pentagon. The Arkansas Democrat's March 25 foreign policy speech richochet- ed through both halls of Con- gress, the State Department and the White House. It still is draw- ing fire in some quarters. Symposium His comments on the military came in a keynote speech to the 1964 Carolina Symposium, a five- day series of lectures at the uni- versity on the topic "Arms and the Man: National Security and the Aims of a Free Society."- Fulbright said the military es- tablishment has a vested interest in the continuation of the cold war and its high military spend- ing. He said the "elimination of superfluous defense funds" would encourage spending on domestic programs, and that "the cold war is an excuse, as well as a cause" for high military budgets. Fulbright's comment about con- trol of the military recalled a statement by former President. Dwight D. Eisenhower in his fare- well address as chief executive on Jan. 17, 1961. Influence Eisenhower warned then of the need to "guard against the aquisi- tion of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex." In his address, Fulbright pur- sued one of the points of his March 25 Senate speech. He said the nation's interests could be served better by ending the present "morbid preoccupation with the danger of Communist expansion abroad and subversion, and dis- loyalty at home." (EDITOR'S NOTE; This is the second in a series of articles deal- ing with the Negro in Atlanta. The reporter, although not a native Southerner, has lived in the city for five years.) By ROBERT JOHNSTON Special To The Daily ATLANTA-With a Sunday cir- culation of over 500,000, Atlanta Newspapers, Inc. is one of the most strategic communicationl links in the city. This firm, with the controlling interest held by Ohioan James M. Cox Sr., publishes the morningi Constitution, the evening Journal and a combined Sunday edition. Ralph McGill, Constitution edi- tor for many years, and now pub- lisher, has been a vocal and pro- found champion of civil rights. He believes that the Negro must and eventually -will be granted his "fundamental" rights and that court defiance and irresponsible Southern leadership have resulted only in violence. This philosophy has supplied a firm moral under- pinning for the Constitution and, to some degree, for the Journal. Attacks Attitude Translated into the editorial columns of the papers, this philos- ophy has meant a relentless attack on many aspects of the Southern attitude. Translated into the news columns, it has meant a major source of inspiration for knowledge about the civil rights movement in Atlanta. Whatever Atlantans think of this philosophy and attitude, they read the papers well. Many ve- hemently dislike what they find there, but this is still the source of most of their information. The populace is provided with a broad and often hard-hitting foundation of news coverage and editorial dis- cussion on which to base its opin- ions. However much disagreement the papers arouse, they are able to guide the thoughts and discus- sions of the city in certain gen- eral directions. Such thoughts and discussions have formed the iounciati or action. No one has inspired a greater An example of how this process range of emotions than Ralph works is shown by the aftermath McGill.

But the stand was taken firmly at a time when very' few people were speaking out. The final outcome of the ensuing public To Vote, Today, In Wisconsit?. MILWAUKEE OP)-Administra- tion Democrats drove hard in the closing hours of Wisconsin's presi- dential primary campaign yester day. The mounting White House con- cern over Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace's campaign based on op- position to what he calls -the "civil wrongs bill," brought Presi- dent Lyndon B. Johnson himself to endorse Wisconsin Gov. John W. Reynolds, the favorite son; leading the slate pledged to John- son in today's election. Clifford Baldowski is the Con- stitution's longtime political car- toonist, usually known as Baldy. A sample of his work depicts a visi- tor in the midst of a large ghost town. An old-timer is telling him, "First we closed our schools, then one thing, led to another." But perhaps the greatest meas- ure of the success of Atlanta Newspapers in stimulating public discussion is the appearance of a rival newspaper. The Atlanta Times has been in the works for many years, collecting support from all those who find the pres- ent papers a little too at odds with their own opinions. The Times is scheduled to ap- pear this month with former Con- gressman James C. Davis as pub- lisher. He wastes no love on At- lanta Newspapers-"They have promoted radicalism in every shape and form." But the city's newspapers' hold on the people is shown by the long gestation period of this new ven- ture. These papers are there to stay and have provided one of the shaping and productive forces in the Atlanta rights movement. discussion, debate and pressure was that the state legislature passed laws allowing Atlanta to integrate her schools. Several high schools were peacefully integrated in 1961, and the system expects to have 200 Negro students in form- erly all-white schools next fall. with but- Loaded no calories I ,\ // . ! > :i; r "' ; / a I .. r _, 'it \ ' " 1 .. . . . ; f . t. , s :::: .. s:::: ,.. x.' .I C ) $UCC $ Success comes early to college women who supplement their education with Gibbs training -who obtain marketable skills that gain them quick entry into the fields of their choice.
