Desegregation Speedup Urged By President WASHINGTON (UPI) — President Kennedy appeared today to be making progress in selling business executives, on the need t for voluntary desegregation of their establishments to avoid racial demonstrations. The President met Tuesday ' with 100 executives of firms with outlets in the South to urge them ■to speed desegregation. He seemed to have convinced a num--1 ber of them that this should be done promptly. Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy and Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson joined the President in the 45-minute conference at the White House with the businessmen. Milton L. Elsberg of Alexandria, Va., president of Drug Fair » Stores, • said the consensus of the executives was that the desegregation requested by Kennedy “must be done and done right now.” The tone of the meeting, he said, was that “this is something which must be done in a matter of days" to counter the rising tide of Negro demands. Sumner Redstone, president of ' Redstone Management, Boston, said the temper of the meeting ! was a “general endorsement” of the President's proposals and a * great deal of. approval of the obi jectives. Joseph E. Chastain, president of the Lintz Department Stores s based in Dallas, Tex., said he though the overall sense of the meeting supported cooperation with the President in attempting to desegregate commercial facilities as rapidly as possible. 1 The President was reported to have said he realized this would ' be more difficult in some locales - than in others. He said he was - considering legislation to desegre- • gate public accommodations because it might be necessary to have the force of law to guaran1 tee equal facilities. Chastain said the attorney gen- ' eral read a list of cities the administration regarded as “problem centers,” and mentioned Dal- : las, Chicago, Philadelphia and New York. 33 Will Graduate From Bible School i The closing program and gradu- , ation exercises for 33 students of the Adams Central daily vacation school will be held Friday at 7:30 p.m. in the school gym.

Decrease In f iSugar Prices \ Is Predicted WASHINGTON (UPI) — The ' House banking subcommittee was • told today that the nation’s house- ’ wives can expect to find sugar 5 marked down to a normal price. level in the near future. 1 r The prediction came from Un- ) dersecretary of Agriculture f Charles S. Murphy. Sugar should f reach 6 to 7 cents a pound again shortly, Murphy told the commitJ tee. Last month sugar climbed to 13.2 cents a pound, but then began to slide back. Murphy said the spiralling su- ' gar price was based on fears of ‘ a shortage that had no basis in ■ fact. Once the Agriculture Departt ment released information show- , ing sugar was not scarce, the - price began to drop, Murphy said, t Critics have placed the blame ! for the sugar rise on the new k sugar control law which allows i the U.S. to buy some sugar withi out regard to country-by-country i marketing quotas. , Murphy denied the law was at 5 fault. On the contrary, he said it 1 “has been our salvation.” [ Other developments: Civil Rights: Senate Republican leaders met to hammer out a stand that could decide the fate of President Kennedy’s civil rights program. The leaders hope . to put together a “consensus” on civil rights that would be accept- ( able to all wings of the GOP. , However, it was touch-and-go j whether the lawmakers would be able to agree on a common ( stand. Some conservatives said they saw no need for new civil ' rights legislation. Test Ban Treaty« Rep. Craig • Hosmer, R-Calif., said that the ' United States should drop nego- ! tiations for a test ban treaty. In- ' stead, Hosmer said Britain an d • the United States should try to win an agreement with Russia on a treaty to limit radioactive fallout. Farm: Congressional farm law writers will begin talks Friday on the possibility jf_t>asrmg togislatfon'to ease the-smarp price drop expected in the 1964 wheat crop.

Russia Plans For Launching More Spacemen WARSAW (UPI) — Soviet plans to launch an unspecified number of spacemen this year—after a 10month break in manned space flights—were announced Tuesday to an East-West space meeting here. - Prof. Anatoly Blagonravov, head of the department of technical sciences at the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences and a space rocket expert, made the announcement but gave no exact dates or details. , He was reporting to the International Committee for Outer Space Research (COSPAR). Dr. Richard Porter, chief of the U.S. delegation, also reported on American space plans. Western observers said Blagonravov’s report, although vaguely worded, was the most specific disclosure made by the Soviets thus far on their space plans for 1963. They have announced no manned flights since the double flight last August of Andrian Nikolayev and Pavel Popovich, who completed 64 and 48 orbits respectively. Blagonravov told the COSPAR
