LBJ Works Behind
Scene In Viet Crisis
By STEWART HENSEEY
United Press International
WASHINGTON (UPI) -Pres
Ident Johnson was understood
today to be exerting behind-the
scenes influence to get the
warring factions in South Viet
Nam to bury their differences
and work for constitutional
government.
At the same time, it was
believed the President- had
instructed U.S. officials in
Saigon to caution Premier
Nguyen Cao Ky against the
explosive consequences of any
armed attacks on Buddhist
! temples in Da Nang or Hue, the
centers of opposition to his
regime.
The Chief Executive wound
up a week-long intensive review
of Viet Nam problems by
disclosing late Monday that
American influence was being
applied to increase unity and
carry forward the -nove
ment in South Viet Nam.
: Henry Cabot Lodge, U.S.
ambassador to South Viet Nam,

for them.

ore so trouble-free, and so seldom in need
of service or new parts. And they’re es
pecially relieved to know that the gas
company provides prompt, reliable serv-

was leaving for the Par East
today after a strenuous round
of “consultations,” punctuated
by the explosive weekend
developments in South Viet
Nam.
Administration officials
feared that increasing instabili
ty and political turbulence
would undermine the slow but
steady progress on the military
front which has heartened anti
communist forces in recent
weeks.
White House Press Secretary
Arnall Blasts
Ernie Vandiver
By United Press International
Former Gov. Ellis Arnall
blasted his probable opponent
in this year’s gubernatorial
campaign, Ernest Vandiver,
Monday night for criticizing
President Johnson after he ac-
Bill D. Moyers said Monday,
after Johnson’s windup session
with Lodge and other top
advisers, that the President
was determined to use Ameri
can influence to:
—“Defeat Communist aggres
sion and social misery in South
Viet Nam.
—“Increase the unity of all

—“Carry forward the move

government.”
cepted the President’s hospital
Ity.
Vandiver, who has not yet
announced his candidacy, once
again hinted strongly that he
will run for governor. He Is
also a former governor of Geor-
gia.
Arnall told the South Cobb
Lions Club he noticed that Van
diver recently was critical of
the President. He also said
Vandiver was President John
son’s guest at his Texas ranch
a short time ago and accepted
Johnson’s hospitality “as his
deer hunting companion.”
“It is not good manners to
accept a friend’s hosoitality
and then criticize him,” Arnall
said. “I cannot understand how
a man can talk out of both
sides of his mouth at the same
time.”
Vandiver called on the Athens
Jaycees “to help me this sum
mer—shoifld I become a can
didate for state office—to in
sist that the urgent issues be
placed in sharp focus...”
He said the next governor
will have to find some effective
relief for Georgia homeowners
as the result of recent court de
cisions “that could create a
staggering burden in the form
of unequal taxation...”
. Both Vandiver and Arnall
spoke strongly about improving
the situation at Milledgeville
State Hospital.
Shirley Accused
Of Law Violations
ATLANTA (UPI)—State For
estry Director Ray Shirley has
violated some sections of Geor
gia law by suggesting an in
surance plan to employes, ac
cording to State Deputy Insur
ance Commissioner Jack B.
Perdue.
l’erdue made the statement
following a two-hour conference
iM the solicitor general’s office
Monday but he said it was be
lieved that Shirley made an
honest mistake. Shirley was
charged with violating the laws
by suggesting to employes a
plan through which they could
obtain liability insurance cover
age while driving state-owned
vehicles.
The state comptroller gen
eral’s office asked Gov. Carl
Sanders to act on the charges.
Shirley, of Macon, said he
was interested only in the wel
fare of his employes and de
nied the charge made by the
Georgia Association of Inde
pendent Insurance Agents,

DeKalb Controversy
Misunderstanding
WASHINGTON (UPI) — U.S.
Education Commissioner Har
old Howe and DeKalb County
education officials agree that a
controvery of the county’s de
segregation plan came as a re
suit of a misunderstanding.
Many people in the county
had the impression that the de
segregation plan was shifted to
the so called “freedom of
choice" but a letter written
from Howe to DeKalb Supt.
SSfffSSSS'
der the same plan as last year.
Under the system, a geographic
plan is drawn for each school
in the district and each child
is initially assigned to the school
in his area. However, he has
a right to request to attend a
school outside his area if space
is available.
Ho wo and some of his staff
members met with Cherry and
Asst. 6upt. C. L. Harper for
about three hours to straighten
out the misundersatnding.
“I think the DeKlab plan of a
year ago is still in effect,”
Cherry said. “It has not
“I have no Interest In any lr>
surance company,” Shirley
said. “I’ve violated no laws or
rnora: principles.”
He said “w e simply made
this program available. If any
one wants to offer another plan,
they’re welcome to do so.”
Perdue said the case was
turned over to Sanders because
Shirley is directly answerable
to the governor.
“We do see some violations
of the code but we believe that
any violations were honest mis
takes by a man who did not
know the provisions of our
code,” Perdue said.
It all started when Shirley
sent a letter to his employes
discussing a plan in which em
ployes could obtain the insur
ance. Shirley said several em
ployes had suffered law suits
because they were not covered
with such insurance.
The independent insurance
group asked Sanders to investi
gate whether Shirley was guilty
of “conflict of interest.”
changed."
Cherry said "a Negro child
is not going to be forced to at
tend an all-white school” and
“a white child won’t be forced
to attend an all-Negro school.”
How e ver, Howe’s letter im
plied that the DeKalb system
would still have trouble corn

guidelines if it does not assign
students to proper geographical
zones this fall.

Investor’s guide! A Cadillac remains unmistakably a Cadillac regardless
of year. New or previously-owned, its impressive size, its remarkable beauty and its continuity of
styling have all contributed to Cadillac’s reputation as the finest of all luxury car investments.
Every day, more and more wise car buyers are discover
ing that they can get more performance, luxury, distinc

Cadillac than in many new cars of lesser stature. For
