Phillie Riots
Planned Affair
PHILADELPHIA (UPI)-The
violent, three-day riot by more
than 2,000 Negroes in the "Jun-
gle” section of North Phila-
delphia was instigated by a
jsmall group of conspirators who
waited several days for an ap-
propriate incident and fied im-
mediately, police said today.
The rampaging mobs, who
vaiidAlized and plundered about
200 stores last weekend, caused
damages estimated*-*at several
million dollars. About 350 per-
sons, more than 100 of them po-
lice, were injured and more
than 600 men, women and chil-
dren were arrested.
Mayor James H. J. Tate said
Police Commissioner Howard R.
Leary informed him that the
identities of the principal insti-
gators were known and police
were gathering "admissible evi-
dence” against them.
The mayor emphasized that
premature disclosed of the iden-
tities of the suspects and the in-
formation collected against
them "could severely hamper
our activities in getting all evi-
dence required for successful
prosecution.”

World War II.
“As a result, we are closer
than ever to making the Second
World War the last world war,”
the President ssid.
At home, he said, the Ameri-
can people had enjoyed uninter-
rupted prosperity since the late
president John F. Kennedy took
office in 1961.
He said the average American
family of four earns $1,200 more
in a year then it did three yeans
ago while unemployment has
dropped to 4.9 per cent.
"We are on the edge of an
abundance which can tower
over all the gains of the past.”
Johnson said. “I predict, if we
continue on our course, the
growth of the next four years
will be the greatest in all our
schools below the college level,
two surprise attempts were
made by Negroes to enter white
schools.
Four Negroes were permitted
to fill our transfer applications
at Marks. in northwest Mis-
sissippi, and at Canton, near
Jackson, several Negroes asked
for transfers tc a white junior-
senior high school.
At Carthage, an attorney for
Debra, Derrick Bell of the
NAACP legal defense fund,
said that threats by whites had
kept eight other Negro child-
ren from applying. Bell said he
would ask the FBI for an inves-
tigation.

“Medical care for toe old, in-

war on poverty are parts of a
program with a single goal: to
give every American a place of

Stopping at Phoenix last night
to accept delivery of his elab-
orately equipped campaign
plane, Goldwater spoke to a
crowd of about 1,000 persons at
Sky Harbor airport.
"President Johnson is worried
about Viet Nam and would like
to sweep it under toe rug, but
he can’t because Bobby Baker
amd toe hi fi set are already
there,” Goldwater said.
He added that he intended to
make campaign issue* out of
toe administration’s foreign pol-
icy. the Billy Soi Estes scandal
and toe Bobby Baker case.
“Do you want toe continua-
tion of this administration?” he
asked. "Do you want to be only
a number tucked away in a gov-
ernment file? Do you want a
centralized government, or a
constitutional republic as en-
visioned by our forefathers?”
He told toe audience, which
included his 90-year-old mother,
Gov. Paul Fannin and other dig-
nitaries, that during his trav-
els throughout the country he
“detected a deep concern about
where the Democratic adminis-
tration is taking the country.
“I don’t declare the Demo-
cratic party a party of war. but
by coincidence toe Republican
party often has to come along
and pull the country out- - and
that’s what we want to do now,”
Goldwater told his enthusiastic
audience.
The' airport stopover was 48
hours in-advance of his first
official campagin address Thurs-
day at Prescott, Ariz.
Goldwater decided to return
to Washington to vote against
medicare earlier Tuesday in Los
Angeles, where he spent toe
day filming spot television seg-
ments for use later in his pres-
idential campaign. The filming
