Fuston said. The new masonry
building will seat 253 persons,
compared to 198 in the present
structure.
To face Fourth Street, the
church will feature a 16-foot so-
lid glass front in its foyer. There
will be no steps in the single-
level building, which will make
the building accessible to infirm
persons, the pastor said. Parking
will be available on the Brady
Highway aide of the building.
City of Brownwood received
the deed for the old church pro-
perty Thursday afternoon. The
city paid $25,000 for the pro-
perty. City Manager John Clary

expected to begin in about five
months.

With the Communist offensive
in Laos apparently slowed
down, the air of urgency over

discuss the immediate problems
arising out of the Communist
offensives.
Expanded military action by
the United States is another of
the possible courses to be con-
sidered. Secretary of State Dean
Rusk said in a speech a week
ago that, if Communist aggres-
sion continued, the result could
be “to expand the war.”
Johnson announced the Hono-

the purpose of the Cabinet-level
talks would be “to review the
situation in the entire area” of

Holiday Visit
By FRANK CORMIER
JOHNSON CITY, Tex. (AP)-
President Johnson made a
memory-filled journey today to
Texas—and his high school of
40 years ago—after exhorting
New York Democrats to work
for a “great victory” in Novem-
ber.
Johnson flew here from New
York in the early morning
hours.
He had only two appearances
on his schedule for a ranch
weekend—one tonight to address
the graduating class of Johnson
City’s Lyndon B. Johnson High
School, where he was graduated
in 1924, and the other to speak
to University of Texas graduates
to Austin Saturday night.
The President made his No-
vember victory appeal during a
circuit of Democratic fund-rais-
ing functions in New York
Thursday night. The finale
brought 17,000 personshto Madi-
son Square Garden for a two-
hour program of entertainment
and a Johnson speech.
Appearing at a $100-a-plate
dinner of Young Democrats,
Johnson said: "Start working
tonight for a great victory for
the Democratic party next No-
vember. And now give us your
