Halibut Mourning . . •
SEATTLE UP> — The North . Pa
cific halibut was mourned here yes
terday in a hearse-led cortege ar
ranged by fishermen’s wives
groups as a protest against con
cessions to foreign fishermen.
Two dozen cars bearing banners
followed the hearse from the Bal
lard district to the downtown
waterfront and back. One car was
reserved for “Mr. Japan, the fun
eral director,” and another for
“Mr. Russia, assistant director.”
The signs carried such messages
as “within lies the halibut industry
of the United States,” and “give
’em an inch and they’ll take a
mile.”
Sponsors said the demonstration
was aimed at negotiations under
way in Washington on a new
North Pacific fishing treaty.
The Eastern Bering Sea was
opened this spring to Japanese
halibut fishermen for the first
time. Russia, not bound by the
treaty, observes no restrictions on
its fishing operations.

13rd Negro Enrolls at
| University of Alabama
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. OP — A 27
year-old Negro scientist engaged
in government space age research
enrolled without incident yesterday
in the University of Alabama for
post-graduate work.
Officials of the U.S. Dept, of
Justice were there to assist Dave
Mack McGlathery in registering at
the University Extension Center.
He became the third member of his
race to enter the university this
week.
Gov. George Wallace was not
present. He made his stand for
segregation Tuesday at the main
branch in Tuscaloosa but yielded
to federal might and a Negro boy
and girl were enrolled.
“I haven’t much to say at this
time,” McGlathery said. ‘‘This is
a new challenge to me. It’s up to
me to make good—not necessarily
for my race, but for myself.”

Race to the Moon
Is Just Plain ‘Nuts’
WASHINGTON W — Former
President Dwight Eisenhower told
House Republicans he thinks that
spending billions on a race to the
moon is “nuts.”
In a talk at a breakfast meeting
arranged by the 87th club, Eisen
hower criticized the Kennedy ad
ministration’s fiscal policies and
urged Republicans to stick to their
party’s principles.
The club is composed of Re
publicans elected to the House for.
the first time in the 78th Congress.
Most of the 177 GOP House mem
bers attended the breakfast in the
Congressional Hotel.
Newsmen were not admitted to
the meeting, but were given ac
counts of Eisenhower’s remarks by
those who attended.
Their report:
Eisenhower expressed the opin
ion that the nation’s defense now
is adequate and that to spend
more would not buy more de
fense.
He said that to sponsor a federal
budget of $107 billion and then
call for a tax cut, as President
Kennedy has done, is fiscally ir
responsible.
During a brief question and
answer period, Eisenhower said he
believed the first approach to a
solution of civil rights problems
is to guarantee voting rights to all
people. Once that is done, he said,
most difficulties could be solved
locally. While some additional
laws may be necessary, he added,
he did not believe enactment of
“a bundle of laws” would solve
anything.
Eisenhower defended his own
administration’s space program
and said he saw no reason to
spend large sums to be the first
nation to put a man on the moon.
“To spend $40 billion to be the
first to reach the moon is just
nuts,” he said.
Psychologists say one of the best
ways to relieve your own tensions
in living is to help someone else
in trouble.
