WITH LBJ King Rights By DON McKEE SELMA, Ala. (AP)--Dr. Mar- tin Luther King Jr., who spent five days in jail here, wants to talk with President Johnson about more civil rights legisla- tion as a result of an Alabama campaign that has brought more than 3,000 arrests within three weeks. And the Negro integration leader said the Alabama drive is only beginning. King, Nobel Peace Prize win- ner, was released from jail Fri- day under $200 bond and an- nounced he is trying to get an appointment Monday with the president. Soviets Unveil Electric Hand MONTREAL (CP) -- Ivan Shpedko, Soviet ambassador to Canada, and Quebec Health Minister Dr. Alphonse Coutur- ier took part Friday in a hand- ing - over ceremony of a Rus- sian electronic hand. The ceremony took place in the amphitheatre of the. Mont- real Institute of Rehabilitation. The electronic hand, a pros- thetic device for amputees or those born with only rudiment- ary arms, contains tiny motors which are activated in conjunc- tion with a battery by electrical current in human nerve end- ings. Seeks King told a press conference a constitutional amendment was needed "guaranteeing the right to vote." Later, at a church meeting in nearby Marion, he said: "We are going to get this right to vote even if it is necessary to get for 1965." King announced he would speak Monday night in Mont- gomery, where Negroes will open a registration drive Tues- day. He also planned forays into other Alabama counties. ARREST in Selma Friday when Negroes of the registration board. high. school pupils, who staged a demonstration at the court- house. Most of them remained in jail. western states arrived in Selma. They talked with King after his release and then met with the mayor, the sheriff, the regis- trars and several other local officials. Representative Charles C. Diggs (Dem. Mich.), a Negro who acted as spokesman, said that neither his group nor four Republican congressmen from Alabama 'were able to persuade the other side to change its views. IF CONSTITUTION CHANGES Too Much Power Ceded To Provinces, 3 Warn NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. (CP) Two members of Parliament and a law professor. warned Friday the federal govern- ment's proposed formula for amending Canada's consti- tution may give too much power to the provinces. In a discussion before the Ontario branch of the Cana- dian Bar Association, Andrew Brewin, New Democratic Party member for Toronto - Green- wood, suggested '"'the pendulum has swung too far" toward de- centralized power. Professor Bora Laskin of the University of Toronto law school said that under the formula some federal powers could be stripped away "until the provinces are in full con- trol,"" Gordon Fairweather, Pro- gressive Conservative member for Royal, said it would be de- plorable and tragic if the prov- inces used the threat of veto on constitution changes to bargain for gains from the federal gov- ernment. Mr. Brewin said that if the Pp formula is adopted India Politico Ambushed, Dies pr there will be "legislative steril- ity for years to come."

He called for an all - party parliamentary committee to study it. Prof. Laskin said delegation of authority to the provinces "may have provided a moment of truce" in federal - provincial differences, but it did not an- swer any of the fundamental questions on amendment. Donald S. Macdonald, Liberal member of Parliament for Tor- onto - Rosedale and parliamen- tary secretary to Justice Min- ister Guy Favreau, told the panel the formula will receive full debate in Parliament and in the provincial legislatures.

But his advice was | received with unduuted scorn | on this side of the Atlantic. Professor Alexander . Boyd, 59, head of Manchester Uni- versity's department of sur- gery Thursday, advised women to wear thick stock- ings, boots, even bloomers-- anything to keep their legs warm. Girls who dress scantily in cold weather," said Boyd, "run the risk of getting fat calves and blotchy skins by | the time they're 30." | The result of exposure to | cold is a condition called | erythrocyanosis crurum puel- | larum frigidum. | "Hideous legs can, ruin a girl's life,"" he said. "the only is to keep them | answer | warm." | WERE NOT IMPRESSED The professor's theory and advice left Americans, from WEAR YOUR BLOOMERS, GIRLS OR RISK LIFE WITH UGLY LEGS, designer Rudi Gernreich to actress Jill St. John, almost unanimously unimpressed. Miss St. John said she had no intention of wearing thick stockings or heavy bloomers. "Tf he's a bachelor, I'm sure he's going to stay that way," she said. 'The whole world doesn't live in Goose Gay, Labrador, or Thule, Greenland. I think the doctor would be doing more of a service if he devoted his re- search elsewhere--like find- ing a cure for the common cold." Gernreich, designer of the topless swimsuit and no bra- bra, refrained from criticizing the Boyd ideas only because they don't conflict with cur- rent styles. "The doctor won't have to worry about fashionable women," he said. 'Thick stockings' and high boots are fashionable this year. I wouldn't approve if they weren't in fashion "Besides, bad legs needn't ruin a girl's life. I know lots of women who are perfectly happy with imperfect legs."

SOUTHAMPTON (Reuters)-- British police today were rip- ping apart a luxury liner in a search for, $300,000 worth of gold bars missing in a robbery that would have done Gold- finger proud. "We are searching this ship as no ship has ever been ive Chief Inspector Bertram Adams, as his men swarmed through the 27,000 - ton liner Capetown Castle. The bullion, part of a ship- ment worth more than $23,000,- 009, disappeared from a sealed strongroom deep in the ship searched before," said Detect-| during a three - week trip from South Africa. Through the night police and customs men removed paneling from cabins, dismantled engine room equipment, examined the funnel, and even took apart cushions and pillows, The theft was so well executed it was not discovered uatil four hours after the ship docked in Southampton Friday. By that 'time, most of the 267 passengers had gone ashore and half of the 400-man crew had been paid off. The bullion, in 10 boxes each containing two bars, of gold, could have been smuggled OTTAWA (CP)--The sharp \split within the federal mari- time union trustees has blown wide open in a letter by Judge Rene Lippe to the Canadian La- bor Congress assailing views ex- pressed recently by Charles Millard. Judge Lippe and Mr. Millard are the two remaining members of the original trusteeship set up by Parliament in October, 1963. Mr. Justice Victor Dryer, the chairman, resigned Dec. 15. Recently Mr. Millard made public a letter to the CLC in which he called for a labor- sponsored trusteeship to replace the government-imposed ar- rangement. He also voiced criticism of the way the federal trusteeship is being run. Judge Lippe's letter, made available to The Canadian Press Friday 'by an Ottawa _ source, replies to Mr. Millard's criti- cisms, calling them "'factual er- rors." It was written in Mont- real Tuesday. It denies Mr. Millard's asser- Maritime Union Trustee Assails Millard View tion that the trusteeship staff has tripled in size since the dismis- sal of, Hal Banks as president of the Seafarers' International Union of Canada (Ind.) last spring. "At that time the trusteeship had 20 employees. At the pres- ent time the trustees have 27 employees," the letter states. Judge Lippe also opposes Mr. Millard's claim that the trustee- ship, established to run 39 months, is moving towards per- manency. "Its temporary nature has been. acknowledged from the moment of its inception," he said. Most senior officials were either on loan from government posts or on leave of absence from normal jobs. The CLC's executive council will discuss the matter at its regular session here in March. Although the Congress has so far avoided a stand on the issue, union leaders have said, pri- vately they cannot agree with Mr. Millard's proposal for a la- bor trusteeship. THE OSHAWA TIMES, Saturday, February 6, 1965 ashore at any of five stops the Capetown Castle made since leaving Durban, South Africa. Investigations were begun in the South African pofts of East London, Port Elizabeth, and Cape Town, and in Las Palmas in the Canary Islands. The theft brought immediate comparisons to the late Jan Fleming's famous fictional character, Goldfinger, who was foiled by secret agent James Bond in his bid to rob Fort Knox. Normajly, gold loaded in South Africa is stored in the ship's: main strongroom, but because of the extra amount consigned on this voyage the overflow was piled in another LITTLE LOVIN' IN THE TOMES WYANDOTTE, Mich. (AP) The teen-agers don't. neck on the front steps of Wyandotte's Bacon Memorial Library any more. The suburban Detroit li- brary has hired a_ private Detroit police agency to tip- toe through the stacks and other spots in and out of 'the building and put a stop to any hanky-panky. Head librarian Mrs. Louise Naughton, said: "We're none too happy about having to hire police; but it works. It's just that our young people had no place to go so they began using the library as a social centre." "They started playing foot- ball on the floor with big wads of paper." Two boys took turns pushing each other down the aisles on top of an empty book cart. There were sO many youngsters necking and smoking on the front steps that people could png get through the front oor."

But security men over looked a ventilation shaft that passed through the room, ; The thieves, entering from an adjacent room, cut a hole in the shaft, crawled along it, cut their way into the room and passed the out along the shaft. They papered over the holes they cut and the holes were not. noticed until after the loss of the gold was discovered, ' INVESTORS SYNDICATE LIMITED 8 of $1,800,000 Fiering 19¢6 re frodarh of the Caamay ie 0) iS 7m, Canada, Favestore, a gern and In- vestors Trust Company are subsidiaries of The mtg NEED...
