(UPI) — A freckle-faced bandit who threatened to blast a bank “to bits” with a bomb held up the Marion National Bank in the heart of the city’s dowptown district today and escaped* witfr >1,029. Executive vice-president William H. Olds' disclosed the amount of the bandit’s loot following an audit. Olds said the man, wearing a figured green sports shirt and appearing “very calm,” walked up to teller Mrs. Dorothy Applegate and shoved a note in front of her saying, “I have a bomb on me.” “Give me all your money <jr I’ll blast your bank to bits,” he said j Mrs. Applegate handed over money from her cash drawer and pressed the alarm button as the bandit ran out of the bank. Olds said about a dozen customers were in the bank at the time, “but it went so fast nobody knew a holdup was in progress.” He said it took “no more than a minute.” Authorities broadcast an alarm for a late-model, four-door sedan, with ivory over brown colors, and also containing two women. State police set up roadblocks in the area. Hie bandit was described as about 6 feet 1 inch tall. PlKup 7th pgh'Bank employes Bank employes said the bandit talked “very calmly” and did not brandish a gun.

Hundreds Os Police Ready For Violence By United Press Interational The Rochester, N.Y. police department, backed up by a l standby force of 400 state police and 1,200 National Guards- ; men, was prepared to “meet force with force” in the event of racial violence this weekend. Hundreds of helmeted police remain on duty in the streets of riot - torn neighborhoods where four persons were killed and 350 others injured last weekend. “We must be able to get enough men into the streets so we don’t have to resort to firepower,” explained Police Chief William Lombard. In New York City, Negro leader Martin Luther King Jr. concluded Thursday three days of talks with Mayor Robert Wagner on racial problems in the nation’s largest city. King and other top Negro leaders Wednesday night called for a moratorium on racial demonstrations until after the presidential election in November. This moratorium was rejected Thursday by a number of local civil rights leaders throughout the nation. Most of the objection came from the North, particularly New York. President Johnson Thursday urged Negroes to let the ballot box and the new civil rights law solve racial problems. He said the law was passed to move the conflict from the streets to the courts, and he agreed with those who advocate voter “registration in lieu of demonstration.” Elsewhere: Jacksonville, Fla.: Federal Judge Bryan Simpson took under study Thursday a rquest by Negroes for immediate desegregation of 16 motels and restaurants in St. Augustine. Wilderness Area ..... Bill Passes House WASHINGTON (UPD—House backers- of a bill to preserve the nation’s dwindling “wilderness ‘ areas" today foresaw little trouble in ironing out differences between their measure and Senate legislation. The House ended a threeyear controversy Thursday by voting 373 to 1 to approve the landmark conservation measure. Rep. Joe R. Pool, D-Tex., cast the sole dissenting vote. The House bill would build a — legal fence around some 9 million acres of wilderness and eventually permit inclusion of all of the federal government’s 61 million acres of wilderness areas into the system, with the express approval of Congress. The Senate already has passed a more liberal bill which would immediately incorporate 14.5 million acres in the wilderness reserve. The secretary of the interior would be empowered to bring the remaining acreage into the system on his own unless Congress acted expressly to stop him. Rep. John P. Saylor, R-Pa., a chief sponsor of the bill, said today he was certain that House and Senate negotiators would be able to resolve the differences between the two bills. Saylor explained his confidence on the ground that “everybody concerned wants a bill.” He also said he was not too worried by the fast - approaching adjournment of Congress, currently expected about Aug. 22.

Former Advisor To 1 Presidents Is Dead | HARRISON, N.Y. (UPI)-* James M. Landis, 64, a close adviser to three presidents and former dean of the Harvard Law School, was found dead Thursday in the private swimming pool of his fashionable home on the grounds of the Westchester Country Club here. The body of Landis, who played major roles in the administr'ations of ’' ” Presidents'Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S Truman, and John F. Kennedy, was found by next door neighbors, Nancy Gustafson, and her brother, Gregory, about 7 p.m. EDT, Gregory, 16, administered artificial while Nancy went home for help. Police said the Westchester County Medical Examiner’s Office was conducting an investigation of the incident, but that preliminary evidence indicated. there was nothing suspicious about it. Miss Gustafson said she “saw him floating in the poo 1” and police said “he couldn’t have been In the pool too long, because he came home around 5:15 p.m. Last year, Landis was convicted of failing to file and pay income taxes on time and only last Monday a one-year suspension from the practice of law in New York state went into effect against him. The suspension grew from the conviction. Landis was sentenced in Manhattan Federal Court- in New York City last Aug. 30 to 30 days in prison for “unlawfully, willfully and knowingly” failing to file and pay federal income taxes on time. Judge Sylvester J. Ryan sympathized with the defendant then and spoke of his “long record” of psychiatric treatment but said “I can’t let you go without the imposition'' of some small sentence: I must give yoo some time — not for punishment, but to give you an opportunity for reflection.” *... Landis, however, who had pleaded guilty to five counts of filing late income tax returns on five years of income totaling $360,927, did not serve the jail sentence. He spent the first week of the term at the U.S. Public Health Service Hospital on Staten Island, and the remaining three weeks in a pri-

Branigin, Hartke Speakers At Rally SOUTH BEND, Ind. (UPD— Gubernatorial nominee Roger D. Branigin said Thursday night state and national Democratic administrations “helped avert a worse economic disaster” when the Studebaker Corp, stopped making automobiles in South Bend. “It was the prompt action of the Demoiratic state administration and the personal concern of Rep. John Brademas and President Johnson which helped avert a worse economic disaster here,” Branigin said in a speech at a party rally for Brademas, who seeks reelection to Congress from the 3rd District. Branigin said jobs have beqn found for nearly three-fourths of the 8,000 Studebaker workers affected when Studebaker moved its works to Canada last December. Also speaking at the rally was Sen. Vance Hartke, who said the civil rights and federal tiix cut bills were “the two most important measures to be enacted” by the 88th Congress. “The 88th Congress has been ■one of the most significant and most productive in history,” he* said, adding that the civil rights and tax cut measures are “historic pieces of legislation with an impact which will be felt for many years.” Locals ... Mrs,. .LaVed Sharpe of 1039 Master Drive, has returned home from Parkview memorial hospital, where she had undergone surgery two weeks ago.
