LEGAL FAILUREf
Indian States Abandon
Trial by Jury Concep t
NEW DELHI W)-Trial by jury, one of the most sacred concepts
of British and American law, 'is being abandoned in India as a
failure.
Only two of the 16 Indian states still use juries. These two are
now considering turning legal decisions over to judges alone.
Trial by jury always has, been limited in India to some areas
and particular types of cases. Even within these restrictions, the re-
suits have not always. been satisfactory. Some legal experts com-
plained that juries too often produced miscarriages of justice.
'No Evidence'
"I have known juries finding prisoners guilty in the face .of
no evidence," Mohandas K. Gandhi, 4the father of Indian independ-
gence, wrote in 1931. "We must not
"rslavishly copy all that is English."

TRIAL:
Court Hears
Prosecution
Documents
WASHINGTON (,P)-Federal in-
vestigators yesterday accused two
American Stock Exchange mem-
bers of doing "many millions of
dollars of harm" to thousands of
investors through massive market
manipulations.
Wholesale bribery efforts and
even a death threat against a cor-
poration executive were among
the scores of misdeeds charged to
the two brokers.
Lawyers for the Securities and
Exchange Commission said other
market-rigging cases in the agen-
cy's 26-year history "become al-
most trivial" by comparison.
The lawyers made this comment
in a 98-page brief summing up a
year-long investigation of the two
exchange members.
The SEC lawyers urged the
commission to expel both men'
from membership in the Ameri-
can - Exchange and revoke their
broker-dealer licenses.This would
be the maximum penalty which
the SEC could impose in this sort
of administrative action.
London StriKe
With Shortage
LONDON (P--A wildcat strike
of nearly half London's dock
workers threatened the capital last
night with food shortages and in-
flated prices.
Hundreds of tons of fruit and
vegetables lay unmoved in- the
holds of 61 ships, idled by a week-
long unofficial walkout.
Tomatoes were already short in
London's shops and selling at
twice last week's prices.
More than 13,000 men of a to-
tal dock force of 29,500 stayed off
the job yesterday. They are pro-
testing complaints that nonunion
men have been given employment
in the docks. The transport and
general workers' union, which
represents most of them, has con-
demned the strike but so far has
been unable to close it out.

Feud Arises
Over Order
On Advisors
Tshombe Leaves
Unity Conference
COQUILHATVILLE, The Congo
WA)-A military blockade enforced
with machine guns was thrown up
here yesterday to keep feuding
Congo leaders from leavingeuntil
they settle their quarrels.
In the center of the rising storm
is President Moise Tshombe of
Katanga province, who stalked out
of Coquilhatville's unity confer-
ence because the central govern-
ment bowed to a United Nations
demand to clear all foreign ad-
visers out of the Congo.
No Promise
Late yesterday, Tshombe went
to town from the airport; where he
had been detained two days. He
was accompanied by President
Laurent Eketebi of Equator prov-
ince and Col Ndjoko, an aide to
Congolese President Joseph Kasa-
vubu. He said, however, he had
made no promise to return to the
conference table.
Tshombe had been on a hunger
strike at the airport since Wed-
nesday when soldiers prevented
him from returning to Elisabeth-
ville, his capital.
His anger rose higher yesterday
when Kasavubu turned over five
of his top Belgian advisers to the
United Nations.
Adviser Given over
The five, who included Alex-
ander Balina, his personal adviser,
had accompanied him to this cap-
ital-of Equator province 375 miles
up the Congo River from Leopold-
ville.
Under escort of UN Ethiopian
troops, they were flown to Leo-
poldville for interrogation by UN
officials and almost certain ex-
pulsion from the Congo.
The situation became more
tense hourly in Coquilhatville as
the Kasavubu government seemed
ready to. take drastic steps to pre-
vent a new rupture in Congolese
politics.
Maj. Gen. Joseph Mobutu, com-
mander of the central govern-
ment's army flew into Coquilhat-
ville, his personal political strong-
hold, with planeloads of parachute
troopers.
It was not clear whether Mobutu
himself issued the surprising or-
der to prohibit any of the 280
assembled Congolese political lead-
ers and their advisers from leav-
ing. It was issued before he arrived.

Cape Crowd
To Witness
'man Shoot'
CAPE CANAVERAL (_) - "The
man shoot" is expected from this
spaceport Tuesday and the near-
by resort area is bracing for the
biggest crowd ever to witness a
launching.
Everybody is talking about it-
except spokesmen for the Nation-
al Aeronautics and Space Admin-
istration. They insist: "We have
never announced a date."
But newsmen are pouring into
the town of Cocoa Beach, where-
motel balconies overlook the maze
of launching pads at the cape, and
getting set up for the attempt to
rocket an astronaut 115 miles into
space and back. -
They believe Tuesday is the
day, but they are aware that
postponements may come, be-
cause NASA officials will want
everything to be perfect before the
first man's life is risked.
The main question is: who will
be America's first spaceman?" ,
Ask the question of a group of
three persons and you get three
different answers, one for each of
the astronauts training for the ini-
tial suborbital flight.
They are Marine Lt. Col. John
H. Glenn, Jr.; Air Force Capt.
Virgil I. Grissom, and Navy Cmdr.
Alan B. Shepard, Jr.

French
PARIS (M)-The French com-
mander at Constantine, who by his
own admission wavered away from
loyalty to F r e n c h President
Charles de Gaulle and joined the
Algeria generals' rebellion, was
taken to solitary confinement in
Sante Prison last night.
Gen. Maurice Michel Gourard,
like the also imprisoned rebellion
chief, Gen. Maurice Challe, could
be sentenced to death by firing
squad or guillotine by a nine-man
special court.
Informants gave this version
of his participation:'
Gourard admitted he had been
in revolt against the government
for 48 hours. When the generals
first staged their insurrection,
however, he refused to join them
and ordered his area commanders
to remain loyal.
Switch Sides
He switched over last Sunday,
however, when one of the rebel-
lion leaders, Gen. Andre' Zeller,
called on him in Constantine and
talked with him for three hours.
Gourard then declared he was act-
ing to "ensure the unity of the
army."
The jailing of Gourard came as
the de Gaulle government contin-
ued a tough military and civilian
purge in Algeria and a sweeping
roundup in France of suspected
activist sympathizers with the
abortive putsch.

In Algeria elite military units
were dissolved, high officers ar-

and policemen; detained. Prison
terms were threatened for any-
one helping the revolt leaders to
escape.
In France, the interior ministry
announced 130 arrests outside Par-
is. The total including Paris was
reported to be about 600.
The, police activity, however,
failed to prevent Algerian terror-
ists from renewing their work

Sees ttempts
At Infiltration
PHOENIX, Ariz. MP-The appli-
cation of the Russian Orthodox
Church for membership in the
World Council of Churches is part
of a Communist move to infil-
trate church organizations, a
Protestant leader said yesterday.
Carl McIntire, president of the
International Council of Christian
Churches, said "While the Reds.
are doing their dastardly deeds in
Cuba, the United States leaders
of the World Council of Churches
open their arms to welcome these
wolves in sheep's clothing.",

Conflicting Opinion1
Among Indian students on cam-
pus conflicting opinions were
voiced.
Several thought that a group of
people are likely to be more fair
in their decision than a single per-
son acting as judge. Datta Khar-
bas, Grad, said, "I think I am for
juries. From what I know of the
Indian jury system, the people
selected for jury duty are what
you would call middle-class; sec-
ondary school ,teachers, govern-
ment officials, etc.
Another student said, "I would
say that there are both advan-
tages and disadvantages. The jury
system has been a mixed blessing.
It is satisfactory for some parts
of the country but in other parts
it does not adequately take care
of the situation. However, I don't
believe that caste feelings play any
large part in influencing the
jury."
Hyder Shah, Grad, said, "It is
a very ticklish, subject. They have
modified the jury system and
while such modification would be
beneficial in the future, at pres-
ent it is uncalled for.

ATLANTA t)-Southern Negro
leaders, successful in many school
integration moves, are now turn-
ing their attention more and more
to Job opportunities..
They report some progress. A
survey by the Associated Press,
turned up widely varying patterns
from state to state, and conflict-
ing reports from Negro spokes-
men, state officials and labor
leaders. Efforts to end discrimina-
tion in employment appear great-
est in the border states rather
than in the deep Sduth.
One obstacle to the Negro drive
is that except for jots involving
federal contracts, there are almost
no laws on which to base com-
prehensive litigation in this field.
Push Trade Schools
Another difficult factor, a
spokesman for the Southern re-
gional council noted, is that Ne-
gro leaders fear that if job op-
portunities were fully equal there
would not be enough qualified Ne-
groes to fill them. For this reason,
he said, there has been a push
for Negro trade schools.

He pointed out that few south-:
ern Negroes have jobs alongside--
or where they would give orders to,
white persons, and that the white
collar and skilled crafts fields gen-
erally are closed to Negroes. Util-
ity company and government jobs,
including many federal offices, al-
so were described as virtually,
white-only.
In the professions, Negroes were
reported barred from most state
and local organizations, and from
practicing other than with Negro
clientele.
The most conflicting reports
center around what unions have
done to implement national AFL-
CIO opposition to segregation.
While labdr 'spokesmen in Geor-
gia and Virginia, for example, say
discrimination is not a problem,
Negro leaders reported unions
either were indifferent or were ac-
tually preserving segregated work-
ing conditions.
No Public Steps
Alabama unionsseem to be tak-
ing a normal course of integra-
tion, but unions in Arkansas, Loui-

siana, Mississippi and the Louis-
ville, Ky., area have taken no pub-
lic tsteps to end discrimination.
Spokesmen said Negroes often
are denied opportunities for train-
ing or apprenticeship, and then
are not hired for lack of training
or experience.
With scattered exceptions, the
survey indicated, there have been
no repiisals against Negroes seek-
ing to end job discrimination.
Many campaigns for a break-
through in employment are on a
local level. Emphasis generally is
placed on talks and negotiations
with government and business of-
ficials to get Negroes better than
menial jobs.
The most headway is reported
in areas where they can bring eco-
nomic or political pressure.
