'Common Sense of American People
Will Never Require It,' He Believes
WASHINGTON R) - President Dwight D. Eisenhower yesterday
rejected any idea of ever using federal troops to enforce school inte-
gration.'
"I can't imagine any set of circumstances that would ever induce
me to send federal troops into any area to enforce the orders of a
federal court," he said, "because I believe that common sense of
America will never require it."
Southerners fighting the administration's civil rights bill in
the Senate have objected it could mean the use of troops, as in Re-
construction days.

Gov. Guy Hardwick predicted yes-

will enforce a total boycott of
Negroes if "this outrageous civil
rights bill" becomes law, and Ne-
groes attempt to avail themselves
of its provisions.
"All white men will, of necessity,
be drawn together by common
bonds of resistance," Hardwick
told a Birmingham civic club.
"And I predict they will refuse
to employ, feed, clothe, or other-
wise aid or assist Negroes, if the
latter insist in disrupting and up-
setting our way of life in Ala-
bama."

Others of the 33 were identified

MASS TRIAL:

KNOXVILLE, Teenn. (A) - A
government witness, in a singl
10-minute sweep of testimony
yesterday placed 11 of 14 Clintor
defendants on the scene of racia
disorders at Clinton High Schoo
last fall.
It was the biggest mass link-u
by any witness in the eight-day
old criminal contempt trial ir

keeping a daily vigil near the higL
school a week before the climatic
outbreak of blodshed when Negrc
students returned to the schoo]

Moore is a member of the An-
derson County School Board,
which operates the' integrated

He said the 11 defendants kept
watch in their cars or on the
street near the school throughout
that period when the Negro chil-
dren stayed up on the pine-topped
ridge where Clinton's Negro col-
ony lives and did not venture to
attend school.
Moore also testified that one of
the 11 watchers, the Rev. Alonzo

him: "You want me to leave so
you can bring those colored chil-

Britain Sees
New Hopes
For H-Bans
LONDON (M)--The United Na-
tions disarmament talks took a
more hopeful tone yesterday as
Britain proposed that working
committees be set up in fields
where East and West appear
closest to agreement.
Among the four committees
suggested in the UN Disarmament
subcommittee by Foreign Secre-
tary Selwyn Lloyd was a group to
study how a suspension of hydro-
gen bomb tests might be enforced.
Soviet delegate Valerian Zorin,
who last week declared such a
working group would be "a waste
Of time" at this stage, neither
accepted nor rejected Lloyd's pro-
posal.
Zorin said he would reply later.
United States officials said they
attached no major importance to
the fact that Zorin did not im-
mediately say "no" yesterday. But
they added it was only one of
several indications the negotia-
tions had taken a more promising
turn.
The fact that Lloyd returned to
the meetings with his new pro-,
posal was taken as another favor-
able sign.
Lloyd had skipped two previous
meetings after attacking Zorin's
attitude as "disappointing."

The ensemble included selec-
tions from every period, but im-
pressed the appreciative audience
most with a brass transcription of
Beethoven's fourth movement of
the "Quartet for Strings."

List of eight conductors that will
direct tomorrow evening's concert
by the Summer Session Band reads
like a Who's Who of collegiate and
high school band directors.
Program is scheduled for 7:30
p.m. on the "Diag," or a half hour
later in Hill Auditorium if there
is inclement weather.
Htading the group of guest con-
ductors will be Harold B. Bach-

Army Announces Plan
For Draft Call Cuts
WASHINGTON (-) - The Army announced last night that future
draft calls will be cut.
It did not say how much the reduction would be, saying figures
would be made public later.
The last draft call announced was 11,000 for August.
Besides reducing future calls, the Army also said that 2,000 com-
missioned officers and an unspecified number of enlisted men will
be released.
These moves are in line with the administration decision, made
public Tuesday, to make an overal reduction of 100,000 from the
authorized total of' 2,800,000 men "
and women in uniform.

'1 6 t oTo M ake Cut'.
Foils Amendment
Asking Ike To Bar
GI Foreign Trials
WASHINGTON ()-Presideni
Dwight D. Eisenhower said last
night a $400 million cut in foreign
economic aid approved by the
House "can be considered as n
less than a threat to our nation's
security and that of the free
world."
The president spoke out shortly
after the House voted 106 to 100
to slash the defense support of the
mutual security program by that
amount.
President Eisenhower asked Con-
gress for $900 million in defense
support economic aid. The Senate
already voted to provide $800
million.
Request Cut
The House Foreign Affairs Com-
mittee cut the administration re-
quest to $700 million, and the
House itself voted. yesterday to
allow only $500 million.
In a statement President Eisen-
hower urged the House to stand by
the $800 million program approved
by the Senate. Yesterday's House
vote is subject to a later roll-call
vote.
The House also handed the ad-
ministration a setback when it re-
fused a permanent authorization
for military aid.
Victory Scored
But the administration scored
an important victory when the
House turned down an amend-
ment that would have asked Presi-
dent Eisenhower to bar foreign
trials of GI's.
The move, by Rep. O. Burleson
(D-Tex.), was defeated in an un-
usual 134 to 134 tie on a teller
vote, with the congressmen walk-
ing down the center aisle to be
counted.
A majority vote was needed to
make the change in language in
the bill.
It would not have the force of
law, but would have added the
wording that it was "the sense of
Congress" that the President re-
vise "status-of-forces" agreements
to give the United States exclusive
jurisdiction over American service-
men who commit offenses while on
duty overseas.
Controversy Cited
Those agreements now provide
for waiver of United States juris-
diction in some cases.
A widespread controversy fol-
lowed the administration's recent
action. in the case of Army Spe-
cialist William S. Girard, who was
turned over to a Japanese court
for trial in the fatal shooting of a
Japanese woman on a firing range
in Japan.
Only yesterday morning, the
President at his news conference,
defended the status-of-forces
agreements as a vital part of the
nation's mutual security alliance
system.
Rep. Burleson, in his proposal,
also sought to put Congress on
record that, "The rights of -our
own citizens should not be sacri-
ficed while the rights of freedom
and self-government are secured
to the people of other nations."
By a standing vote of 136 to 31
the House refused' to give Presi-
dent Eisenhower any authoriza-
tion for military aid for the fiscal
year 1959, starting next July 1.

WASHINGTON (R) - A visit to
Washington by President Dwight

possibility.
President Eisenhower, himself,

tensions.
The Soviet Embassy reflects in

Khrushchev might want to be

several questions about Zhukov
