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.

Guy Hardwick predicted yes- terday that Alabama white people 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.

House Group a t Gets Names e Of Communists d t WASHINGTON (A)-- Two wit- o nesses yesterday gave a House sub- t committee on Un-American Activ- e ities the names of 33 persons they said they knew as Communists in e communications work in the late r 1930s. On the list was Joseph Selly, t identified as president now of the American Communications Asso- ciation, a labor union. Others of the 33 were identified as communications industry work- ers or connected with the ACA or the American Radio Telegraphers Assn., which preceded ACA. The witnesses were Michael Mig- non, Brooklyn, N. Y., an inter- national representative of the Communications W o r k e r s of America and Joseph Finsmith, Searingtown, Long Island, N. Y., manager of the Personal Service Bureau of RCA, Inc. Both said they had been Com- munist party members for a few years prior to 1940. MASS TRIAL: Clinton Witnesses Identified 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 United States District Court. United States District Attorne3 John C. Crawford Jr. announcec that the government expects t rest its case this morning. Police Chief Francis Moore o Clinton testified he saw all bu three of the 14 Clinton defendant keeping a daily vigil near the higL school a week before the climatic outbreak of blodshed when Negrc students returned to the schoo] Dec. 4. Moore is a member of the An- derson County School Board, which operates the' integrated school. 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 B u 11o c k, a part-time Baptist preacher and house pain ter told him: "You want me to leave so you can bring those colored chil- dren down here." Bullock and the others are on trial with segregation leader John Kasper, 27, of Washington, D.C., on charges of violating a federal court-ordered integration- of Clin- ton High. Before court adjourned, Judge Taylor indicated - without mak- ing a final ruling - that he op- poses the government's move to introduce an anonymous letter about "scalawags" as evidence. 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." resident $400 Slash Million 'Threat Cal to S ecurity' BAND CONDUCTORS MEET: Three-Day Sessions Mark Annual Conference By FRED KATZ A conference that can be en- joyed by more than just those for whom it is originally intended, began here yesterday and will continue through tomorrow.

Cavender, assistant director of University bands, and Prof. David Mattern of the Uni- versity School will also conduct several numbers.

The story was told shortly after the committee disclosed that AFL- CIO President George Meany wil] testify Monday about a report that he caught the two officials in what it called "their misuse of these union funds." Martin J. Quigley, president of the Mutual Title Co. here, told the committee he handled the fi- nancial arrangements involved in the home purchases by Anthony Valente, president of the UTW, and Lloyd Klenert secretary-treas- urer. ,l s e r s s 2 r 1 t COMRADESHIP RENEWED?

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.

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. subject to reversal by later votes Dr. Umbreit IVT*11 T. WASHINGTON (R) - A visit to Washington by President Dwight D. Eisenhower's old friend kSoviet Defense Minister Georgi Zhukov, appeared today to be a distinct possibility. President Eisenhower, himself, said yesterday that talks with Zhukov might serve a useful pur- pose in improving Soviet-Ameri- can relations and easing worldj tensions. The Soviet Embassy reflects in one comment, at least, a generally favorable attitude, and several If Zhukov or his associates in ago that he would like to visit the ruling group of the Soviet Communist party indicate an in- terest in following up the Presi- dent's friendly attitude toward a' talk. then events could move fair- ly fast. If Moscow seems cool toward the idea in contacts with United States diplomats there - or per- See Related Story on Page 2 haps contacts the State Depart- ment here - then the whole idea the United States but had never been invited. Khrushchev might want to be counted in on any mission includ- ing Zhukov and that presumably could create complications. President Eisenhower was asked several questions about Zhukov at his news conference yesterday. He recalled that he had known the Soviet marshal well when he and Zhukov were commanders of the victorious Allied and Soviet
