Economic Boycott Os Chicago Stores CHICAGO (UPD tion' leaders pledged today to intensify their efforts for an economic boycott of Chicago merchants after a noisy showdown session Wednesday with the Chicago School Board. “If they didn’t understand a boycott by 25,000 children, maybe they will understand when their casjj registers stop ringing,” integration leader Lawrence Landry said. The conference between the Board of Education and . civil rights leaders over alleged segregation in Chicago schools
came to a howling halt. The end came when the board voted, 4-3, against adopting a policy favoring integration. Landry, co-chairman of the Chicago area friend? of the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee and chairman of thd school negotiating committee of the Coordinating Council of Community Organizations, said the board was “irresponsible and insensitive to the demands of the Negro community.” “What happened yesterday will intensify our efforts to make the economic boycott effective,” Landry said in a statement. “The Board of Education members say they are in favor of integration, but refuse to adopt the policy of integration.” Plans for an economic boycott of Chicago businesses during the Christmas season were announced earlier. A SNCC spokesman said that although the economic boycott would be the "major action,” there will be picketing downtown in conjunction with it. The spokesman also said the demonstrations would continue even if further talks are held with the school board. Last Oct. 22 nearly a quarter million students—or about half of Chicago’s entire public school population—stayed away from classes. It was one of the biggest single demonstrations in history.

Pay Boost To State Mental Hospital Help INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Practically all employes of Indiana’s state mental \ institutions— about 6,500 persons—will get' wage increases .of at least $25 a month beginning Jan. 1. ' Commissioner John T. Hatchett of the Indiana Department of Administration announced a revised salary schedule today which carries out a 1963 legislative mandate for higher salaries in the 11 state hospitals for the mentally ill. However, Hatchett said revisions were made in tha schedule as proposed by the State Department of Mental Health, which backed higher starting pay at the expense of increases for veteran “We felt we should keep the experienced employes,” Hatchett explained. About $5 Million The pay increases will total about $5 million for the biennium and include $3,504,375- for salary up-grading and $1,452,568 for merit increases. The salary upgrade is mandatory and was originally scheduled to start last July 1. It was delayed by the financial dilemma which occurred when Indiana’s new sales tax was being challenged in the courts. Although the minimum increase per employe is S2O per month, for some the pay jump may run as high as SSO and in isolated cases as much as S7O a month. Hatchett said the increases leave the correction department with the lowest, paid group of workers. For many years the low salary group had been mental patient attendants. The starting salary presently for an attendant is $145 a month. Under the new plan, the range will be up to $265 a month. The Mental Health Department recommended a trainee be offered $245 a month, but the personnel division called for $215. Two-Step Increase Hatchett explained the money saved by adopting the personnel recommendation was spread over the salaries of employes with the institutions for some time. / Under the revised J! schedule, he said, all employes, at all pay levels will be brought up to the new starting salary. This means some lower-paid attendants will get a two-step increase at one time. The only mental institution 1 employes who might not get any increase would be those who, received increases in July or October which already amounted to the two steps. An employe’s eligibility date for another increase will be a year from date of employment or the date of his last merit increase. The hospital employes union had specifically requested Governor Welsh to 7 give consideration to veteran employes. Thi§ was done by the revised salary schedule. /

Kennedy Children Buried With Father
WASHINGTON (UPI) — Mrs. John F. Kennedy returned to a darkened hillside in Arlington National Cemetery Wednesday night to bury the bodies of her two dead children at their father’s side' In a brief and moving ceremony, lighted by the eternal flame at the head of Kennedy’s grave, two white caskets were placed beside the slain President. One contained the body of Patrick Bouvier -Kennedy who died last Aug. 9 in the second day of his life. The other contained a sister who was stillborn Aug. 23, 1956. I White House Press Secretary Pierre Salinger said Mrs. Kennedy was accompanied by Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy, his brother, Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., and the former First Lady’s sister, Princess Lee Radziwill. Mrs. Kennedy knelt in prayer at the graveside ceremony conducted by the Most Rev. Philip Hannan, auxiliary bishop of Washington. She remained composed throughout the reinterment. Intones 148th Psalm The two small caskets were placed on either side of the President. Bishop Hannan intoned the words of the 148th Psalm. The Lord’s Prayer was said, and the caskets, sprinkled with holy water, were lowered into the grave, Which occupies part of a three-acre site set aside for the president. UAder the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church, children, untainted by sin, go directly to heaven after baptism. When the ceremony was over the members of the family left the cemetery immediately. The gates were patrolled by an extra guard of military police to keep the service private. Salinger said the bodies of the two children were accompanied to Washington aboard the Kennedy family plane by Sen. Edward Kennedy. Patrick Bouvier Kennedy had been buried at the Kennedy family plot in Brookline, Mass. His sister was buried at Newport, R. I. Plans Kept Secret The plans for the burial were a closely-guarded secret. The statement on the move came from Salinger, who said he was acting at the request of Mrs. Kennedy'. ’ . Little had been known about the stillborn Kennedy baby and it was not general knowledge that-it had been a girl. It was her wish that the President be buried in Arlington' Cemetery. Some members of the Kennedy family had argued in favor of the family plot at The reinterment • came as Mrs. Kennedy prepared to move out <jf, the White House. She and Carolina, 6, and John
