Civil Rights Bill Headed For Defeat In Senate

WASHINGTON UPI— President Johnson’s third civil rights bill in three years today headed for a crushing defeat in the Senate. Even the most ardent advocates conceded the cause was hopeless.. In the late afternoon, the SenHobbs Expected To Be Returned * ; AUSTIN, Tex. UPI — Gov, John Connally of Texas is expected to approve the extradition of Arnold G. Hobbs to Indi,ana after an hour-long hearing here Tuesday in which Texas Secretary of State John Hill .said he would recommend the ‘action to the governor. - Hobbs was freed from a 1959 sentence of 15 years in the Indira State Prison for embezzling *by a habeas corpus, which was 4ater ruled improper by both ^Indiana and U. S. Supreme Courts. » He was charged with embezzling nearly $1 million from Ttfoble County Credit Union at Albion, Ind., in 1958. Indiana officials contended they dismissed 20 counts of the charge in extdiange for a pledge by Hobbs ito serve the full 15-year term Without appealing. • Hill said he was forced to < take the position that “there’s really no difference in reality from the situation in which someone did escape.” Hobbs moved to Texas after his release In 1963, after serving less than five years of his sentence. Hill said he would . recommend to Connally that Hobbs be returned to Indiana to serve the remainder of the sen- ‘ tence. Hill said the case boiled down to the fact that Hobbs admitted guilt and that he is faced with an Indiana Supreme Court order which said he has not served his time in prison.

ate was scheduled to try to choke off a listless filibuster that has limped along since Labor Day. All indications were that the vote to impose cloture would fall far short of the needed twothirds of those senators voting and present. Backers of the bill were striving for at least a showcase majority. The vote was to come on a petition to end unlimited debate on the motion to take up the civil rights bill for consideration, not on the bill itself. Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield has indicated that if the motion to cut off the filibuster does not attract a decent number—at least a majority—he is ready to junk the bill for this session. If the vote for cloture rises above a majority, the chances are Mansfield will seek a second vote before shunting aside the House-passed bill. The measure includes the highly controversial ban on discrimination in the rental or sale of an estimated 40 per cent of the nation’s housing, with exemptions for private homes and owner-occupied apartment houses with four or less units. Although most of the fire was aimed at this section, the broad package also included provisions to end bias in the selection of juries; now powers for the attorney general to initiate civil rights suits; criminal penalties for those who cross state lines to incite riots; and more federal protection for Negroes and civil rights workers.

Fatal Accident NORTH VERNON UPI — Crispen Kemper, 7, North Vernon, was killed Tuesday when he fell into the choppers of a farm wagon being used to load a silo with feed at the farm home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Kemper.

To Withdraw From NATO PARIS UPI — France announced today it is withdrawing from the NATO Military Committee in Washington Oct. 1. It was another major step in President Charles, de Gaulle’s efforts to lessen France’s dependance of the North Atlantic alliance and move it closer to the third force in European affairs. The Military Committee is the senior military authority of chief of staff of all member countries except Iceland, which has no armed forces and is represented by a civilian. The announcement was made to the NATO Permanent Council by Pierre de Leussse, France’s representative. He said henceforth France would be represented on the Washington committee only by a liaison group.

perimental program on a threemile stretch of a main traffic artery. The computer reduced the number of stops 17 per cent and the waiting time at stops 14 per cent. For the 35,000 autos that use the street each business day, this meant the elimination of some 50,000 stops and a time saving to drivers of 416 man

hours. Officials arrived at a $264,000 annual saving figure for motorists, after calculating the cost of stopping and waiting for a red light. Information is fed to the computer about the speed, volume and density of traffic by electrical sensors buried beneath the street. Within seconds, the computer applies the most efficient sequence of switches for the traffic lights.

Vote Today On No-Strike Clause HAMMOND, UPI — Hammond firemen who belong to a labor union will vote today on whether to remove a no-strike clause from their constitution. Members of Local 556 of the International Association of Fire Fighters, including firemen and supervisory personnel, sought to pave the way for a possible strike. Removal of the clause would require two meetings locally and approval of the international union. The “strike talk” came after fi/emen were given a $65 monthly pay increase which they considered inadequate.
