Hearings On Civil Rights Open Thursday WASHINGTON UPl'— House Rules Committee hearings on civil rights start Thursday with 20 Southern Democrats and one Northern Republican already in line to testify. The hearings are expected to draw at least a dozen other congressional witnesses ft> testi 1 fy on the sweeping measure designed to eliminate discrimination in voting, education, employment. public atcommodations and use of federal funds. Chairman Howard W. Smith, D-Va . said he was not encouraging Southern members to seek time before the committee, which traditionally listens to any congressman who wants to talk about bills before they are cleared for -action by the House. Smith indicated some weeks ago he did not expect the hearings to run into February, but he has set no date for winding up the testimony. Once the hearings end. the rules committee is expected to have a bipartisan majority for sending the measure to the House floor. Should the hearings stretch beyond January, it is expected that a campaign .to take the bill away from the rules group will be stepped up. Efforts to get a majority of the 432 House members to sign a discharge petition before the Christmas holiday stalled at about 170 signatures after Smith promised to start the hearings. None ot me main supporters of the bill was on the advance list of witnesses, but the hearings were expected to open with testimony from Chairman Emanuel Celler, D-N. Y., of_the judiciary committee and Rep William M. McCulloch, JR-Ohio, principal sponsor of the measure. Other members of the judiciary committee, which approved the bill Nov. 20. also were expected to testify for and Against the measure.

Pope Paul Greeted By Wild Applause

VATICAN CITY UPl)—Pope Paul VI today held his first general audience since his triumphal pilgrimage to the Holy Land and called on all Christians to return to the spirit of the early church. The 66-year-old pontiff, dressed in white and wearing a white skullcap, was greeted by wild applause from about 2.000 persons who jammed into the Vatican’s Clementine Hall. Pope Paul, renewing his plea for Christian unity, told the happy crowd “today we see a multitude of people and we wislk,, we had more time to adequately discuss our pilgrimage to the Holy Land. This is the first audience after our trip.” The Pope was interrupted by loud applause. He then went on to note that among the audience were Franciscan nuns including missionary, sisters that he saw in Palestine, religious students and sisters of St. Joseph. Pope Paul thanked the people of Rome for the tremendous reception they accorded him on his return from the Holy Land Monday night. He said never before had a Pope been given such a magnificent homecoming. Then he went on to describe his trip to the places where Jesus Christ as .born, lived and died. He saiS heWas filled with “wonder and joy” and everyone .“was enthusiastic with our pilgrimage,” which he called the first step in reunification of the church. “The prophecies of the Gospel were never so true and splendid,” the pontiff said, “and they promise greater unity in the future.” -—- The Pope said he hoped the movement for unity would keep going forward and also said he wished everyone could make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.

St. Joseph County Suffers New Blow MISHAWAKA. Ind. UPI)— St. Joseph County suffered another economic blow Tuesday when the Defense Department announced in Washington, that it is halting development of the Navy’s “Typhon” air defense missile which already has cost $230 million. .Cancellation of the Typhon program will cost at least 250 jobs at the Bendix Corp, plant here. Bendix was the prime contractor for the missile. Pentagon spokesmen said the Navy, instead, will concentrate on. development of a standard* ized version of its present “Terrier” and “Tartar” air defense missiles which can be used from small ships. They said the Typhon would have been suit-able-only for use on larger vessels. Sen. Vance Hartke. D-Ind., expressed concern over the effect of the decision on this area which was hit earlier 'by "the closing of the Studebaker Corp, auto plant at nearby South Bend with the loss of about 6.000 jobs. Hartke said he. Sen. Birch "E. Bayh and Rep. John Brademas, D-Ind.. had discussed the situation with Assistant Navy Secretary Kenneth BeLieu. “BeLieu said that the employment situation in the South Bend-Mishawaka area is receiving the highest possible consideration by the “Navy" and the Department of Defense,” Hartke said. Hartke “•said he and other members of the Indiana congressional delegation would urge Bendix to -Submit proposals fob work 'on ' the new standard ized air defense missile. The Typhon, 'described? by the as a “major step forward in th»> fieet' s defensive capa bi 1 lities.” had been under development since 1958. - - The, Pentagon announcement Tuesday said the’ planned Typhon.„ systems would have been so big and complex they could be used ■ 'only on large Navy ships. It said technological improvements would make it possible to develop a system for use on smaller ships such as destroyers Terrific with Noodles . f : i w j : ■ tw J at Your Food Store

He said everyone who is religious would find spiritual comfort in„ such a pilgrimage, but he added: “You don’t have to go to Jerusalem, you can go with your spirit.” Pope Paul urged all Chris* tians to return to the simplicity of the original church. He also appealed to the faithful to honor the Ten Commandments. The pontiff closed his 10-m inu t e speech by saying there have been 20 centuries of Christian tradition and “we must keep that faith." Rockefeller Urges Nation Move Forward ALBANY, N.Y. UPI) — Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller today called on the nation to the forward road and move ahead” on social and economic fronts in dealing with the “vast unfinished business’ left by the assassination of President Kennedy. Rockfeller, an announced candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, spoke at the opening of the 1964 state legislature. He said meeting the pressing issues will test “the creativity of our free economy and the imagination of our political leadership.” The governor told the legislature “the unspeakable national tragedy that ended the life of President Kennedy” and the impact of events at home and abroad had brought new challenges for the country. "Across the nation—and indeed across the globe—this sudden event the assassination seared our hearts and minds as deeply as an intimate personal loss, a death in the family,” Rockefeller said. “But I believe there has been more grief in the moral aftermath of the loss of our nation's leader. I deeply believe there has stirred within us, as a people, a kind of awakening. This awakening has meant a quickened, sharpened sense of true values — in our individual and our national lives. . .we have been reminded of the preciousness of human life and the brutality of force.” Rockefeller said the nation cannot escape dealing with the sweeping change and challenge brought on since World War 11. He said the new generation is looking forward to the .future. On the home front, the governor said, the battle for the full freedom and equality of Negroes has “entered its climactic phase—and must be won.” . The sharp increase in population 'has" brobghT new problems in job opportunities, education and housing, he said. ■ The governor said the world scene shows there has been a drastic revision in the relations among nations. “In the Communist world of the Soviet Union, clinging to its original concept of human slavery and world domination, a new generation is pressing as yet undefined claims upon its leadership,” he told the New York lawmakers. “We are entering, then, a new era. It ’is new in its moral tone, new in its challenges on the material levek and new in the tests it will bring in the politi-" cal sphere," he said.
