(ICC) solve the railroad work rules dispute. The committees had suspended action on the proposal, a political hot potato because of union objections to it, in hopes that renewed negotiations sparked .by Labor Secreary W. Willard Wirtz would resolve the issue. But the talks collapsed Tuesday, and the onus today was back on Congress. The House Commerce Committee, headed by chairman Oren Harris, D-Ark., scheduled a meeting, expected to be closed, for early next week. The exact date was not immediately disclosed. The Senate Commerce Committee, with chairman Warren Magnuson, D-Wash., back after an illness, was expected to meet on the rails issue late this week or early next week. House Speaker John W. McCormack, D-Mass., said the House would wait for the Senate to act before voting on any bill. The administration bill was expected to clear the House Commerce Com-
mittee by a close vote. Harris was expected to ask Labor Secretary Wirtz for an up-to-date report next week on what had transpired in the labor - management talks before they broke down. The end of the talks first was announced by a railroad spokesman who said the prospect of voluntary settlement of the issue was hopeless because of what he called unrealistic union attitudes. The unions accused the carriers of failing to bargain in good faith. Congress has two weeks to act before the Aug. 29 deadline it helped set more than two weeks ago. Congress asked, and got, an agreement from the railroads to postpone until that date imposition of work rules to eliminate so-called "featherbedding” jobs and practices. The unions have said they will call a nationwide strike if the rules are posted. Dr. Ben Bohnhorst Heads Airborn TV LAFAYETTE, Ind. (UPI- —Dr. Ben A.

Protests Resumed Al St. Louis Banks EAST ST. LOUIS, 111. (UPI) — “Kneel-in” praying and singing Negroes scheduled more demon* strations today at city banks and savings associations in protest against alleged discriminatory hiring practices. About 70 demonstrators, most of them youths, gathered at three banks and two savings and loan associations in the downtown area Wednesday during business hours. They did not interfere with regular business operations of any of the firms. Resumption of the protests came after a one-day truce Tuesday, when leaders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and representatives of the financial institutions met but were unsuccessful in reaching agreement on a solution to the problem. East St. Louis Human Relations Commission Director John Kirkpatrick said he planned to meet with representatives in more negotiations again Friday. Kirkpatrick hinted the financial representatives may have new offers to present after meeting with their respective boards of dirctors. The banks said they needed 24 hours’ notice before holding meetings of their boards. Wednesday's demonstrations were quiet and orderly. The groups marched first to the First National Bank where a large group had been arrested twice Monday after locking hands in a human chain before tellers’ windows to impair business transactions. The demonstrators moved from bank to bank in an orderly fashion with police standing by to observe. The demonstrators were accompanied by James Peake, field secretary for the NAACP Youth Council. Peake, who la white, is a paraplegic and was pushed in a wheel chair by two Negroes during the demonstrations. The group ate a picnic lunch on the parking lot at one

bank. The paraders knelt outside the banks and prayed outside while a small group went inside to kneel and pray and sing softly. Financial representatives proposed a 20 - man apprenticeship program for Negroes at Tuesdays’ eeting but NAACP leaders rejected the offer as unsatisfactory. However,’ both sides indicated optimism about eventual settlement of the dispute after the negotiaing session. 1

Classroom In Chicago Set Afire Today CHICAGO (UPI) — A mobile classroom was set afire early today and integrationists said they would demonstrate ’ “until hell freezes over” unless their demands were met. The classroom put to the torch was at the Chicago Teachers College—less than a mile from where tumultuous demonstrations have taken place earlier this week at another mobile classroom site. Firemen had to break through the walls of the burning classroom to control the blaze. Damage was estimated at S3OO by police. The unit was one pf 10 stored on the college campus to be allocated as directed by the Board of Education. Vandals tried to burn down another mobile unit only a block from the scene of demonstrations Tuesday but the fire burned itself out quickly and caused little damage. Integrationists, claiming they had been “doublecrossed and hoodwinked,” said they would resume their sit-ins of last month at the Chicago Board of Education office today . and perhaps picket Mayor Richard J. Daley’s home again Friday in protest of alleged school segregation. They also planned to continue demonstrations today at a mobile classroom site on the South Side where more than 150 persons have been arrested this week. “We’ll demonstrate until hell freezes over unless our demands are met,” said Roy H. Patrick, vice president of the local chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality. Police Supt. Orlando W. Wilson said his men would meet “force with force.” He warned that demonstrators at the classroom sites would be hauled off to jail every time they obstructed workmen or otherwise broke the law. CORE set up pickets Wednesday night outside the residences of Daley, one of the nation’s most powerful Democratic leaders, and Clair M. Roddewig, Board of
Education president. They said a board meeting earlier in the day at which a head count of the number of Negroes in Chicago schools was supposed to have been available had been “rigged.” Integration leaders contend
