legitimate union rights. •
On the first six titles dealing
with internal union procedures,
the compromise follows the frame-
work of the Senate measure origi-
nally worked out by Kennedy last
year. But some House changes
were written into these sections.
PRAISE
The compromise won almost
unanimous praise from Congress
members on both sides of the dis-
reservations by those most sym
pathetic to labor's position.
The bill was almost sure to be
disappointing to labor. The AFL-
CIO had criticized the measure in
the form it passed the Senate, and
strongly assailed the Landrum-
Griffin version.
Secretary of Labor James P.
Mitchell said he was "extremely
pleased" with the bill and added:
"No honest trade union or em-
ployer has cause to fear this legis-
lation."
The final sessions of the con-
ference produced a compromise
on' the key point holding up an
agreement—construction site pick-
eting.

Kennedy and his fellow Demo-
cratic conferees held out for a
provision sought by the building
trades unions exempting such
picketing from the general ban on
secondary boycotts in the bill.
Such boycotts affect neutral em-
ployers in a labor dispute.
But they were forced to drop the
provision—which has Eisenhow-
er's endorsement—when the House
parliamentarian said he would
rule it was subject to a point of
order killing it in that body.
However, two sweeteners for
the construction unions were in-
serted in its place.
One would legalize widely used
prehire agreements in this indus-
try. The other would legalize
agreements under Which a gener-

rebel movement reached a truce
with the royal government and
agreed to disband. The rebels re-
sumed activity this summer, and
the government charges they are

North Viet Nam’s Communist

Earlier rebel activity this year
had been confined to infiltration
by bands of varying size who
seized isolated government posts.
Officials said the Reds launched
a concerted attack Sunday morn-

miles from the North Viet Nam
border, and captured 80 Laotian

City Receives
Inch Of Rain
In Downpour
An old-fashioned gully-
washing, toad-strangling rain-
storm poured an inch of rain
on Downtown Denton this
morning in about two hours.
The rains, preceded by a sooth-
ing cool breeze, moved into the
Denton area around 9:15 and fell
pretty steadily until about 11 a.m.
There was one brief let-up around
10, but within five minutes more
drenching rains came pouring
down.
The soothing breezes which pre-
ceded the rain kept the precipita-
tion from making any drastic
change in the temperature—it was
already on the way down before
the rains hit. t C? 1
The day dawned cloudy and
overcast with more than a hint of
rain in the air. .
About 8:45 the winds, which had
been out of the southwest, sudden-
ly died, then shifted to directly
from the west. Then the rains
came.
PARIS (AP)—President Eisen-
hower today gave the West a blue-
print for peace: Refuse to retreat
one inch from principle and stay
flexible tacteally.
“Then there will, be no war.
There will be peace?' the Presi-
dent told the North Atlantic Coun-
cil during a surprise visit.
The President sandwiched the
quick visit to NATO headquarters
into a tight schedule of talks with
Western leaders and French Pres-
ident Charles De Gaulle.
’ Arising fresh and apparently re-
laxed after a late white-tie state
dinner with De Gaulle, Eisenhow-
er pitched vigorously into the last
day of his European tour.
His appearance at the council
was designed to calm the fears
of the smaller powers that his
coming meetings with Soviet Pre-
mier Nikita Khrushchev spelled a
lessening of their roles in NATO.
MATTER OF SPIRIT
"NATO is a matter of spirit. of
determination to work as partners
and to preserve the ideals we all
cherish,” the 68-year-old President
said. 2
> "If we are firm I among our-
selves, if we refuse to retreat one
inch from principle, if we remain
flexible so far as tactics are in-
volved, if we give NATO the same
patriotic, deep devotion we give
to each of our own nations, then,
there will be no war. There will
be peace."
De Gaulle and Eisenhower con-
tinued their discussions at a lunch
Eisenhower gave at the U.S. Em-
bassy residence. From all out-
ward appearances they are get-
ting on famously.

Eisenhower's day began when
NATO Secretary General Paul-
Henry Spaak and NATO Council

VIENTIANE, Laos (AP)-Lao-
tian government troops threw up
a defense line against advancing
Commynist rebels today only 12
miles from Sam. Neua, the royal
army’s military headquarters in
northern Laos.
Red forces since Sunday have
overrun lightly manned outposts.
Advance units were reported with-
in 12 to 18 miles of Sam Neua in
what shaped up as a major of-
fensive.
"It’s classic warfare, not guer-
rilla tactics,” Defense Secretary
Phoumi Nosavan told newsmen.
He charged that the attackers
included at least one battalion of
regular North Viet Nam troops,
from Laos’ Communist - ruled
neighbor to the east.
"We intend to hold Sam Neua
at all costs,” Phoumi declared.
"To let it go would be a convinc-

giving protection to the ring for

This was done, the indictment
read, "by advising their codefend-
ants and coconspirators of the
plans and activities of . govern-
mental agencies charged with the
responsibility of enforcing the
laws relating to illicit traffic in
narcotics." ...
The former agent, Edward R.
Gayles, 38. a Negro, now an at-
torney. was charged with con-
spiracy with six codefendants and
eight alleged coconspirators for
conspiring' to import ‘narcotics for
sale and distribution in the United
States.
Police Commissioner Timothy
J. O’Connor immediately sus-
pended the three policemen. ‘
Teller told newsmen he’and the
other detectives are innocent of
any wrongdoing.
The three policemen were
named in one indictment with
conspiring, along with 10 others,
beginning in August 1954, to vio-
late the law. Cooperman and
Teller were charged in another of
the six indictments with selling
one-quarter kilogram of heroin to
