Decision
Washington, June 8
(AP) — The US Supreme
Court has refused to re-
view a decision overturn-
ing conviction of the US
Communist Party for fail-
ing to register under the In-
ternal Security Act. The Su-
preme Court gave no reason
for its action.
In another action, the na-
tion’« highest court refused to
reconsider its denial of a jury
trial to former Mississippi Gov-
ernor Rosa Barnett and his suc-
cessor, Paul Johnson. Both art
charged with criminal contempt
in interfering with the admis-
sion of Negro student James
Meredith to the Univerity of
Mississippi in 1062.
After the decision on the
Communist Party, a justice De-
partment spokesman said vari-
ous steps for possible further
action are being considered.
These include seeking a new
indictment, or re-opening the
entire case.
The court also ruled that
states cannot punish litigants
for taking suits to a federal
court after the suit has been
adjudged in the state court
The decision followed a ease
involving a group of Delias res-
ident* who went from state to
federal courts in a battle over
construction of a jet runway at
the Dallas municipal airport.

Detroit, June 8^
Former
Nixon met today with
Governor George Romney
of Michigan — who has
said he cannot support
Senator Barry Goldwater for
the Republican presidential
nomination unless he modifies
his views. But Nixon’s state-
ment on Goldwater was milder.
Nixon said he is confident that
Goldwater — if nominated —
will back a party platform in
accord with the principles of
the majority of the convention.
Nixon said Goldwater now
agrees with the so-called “Ei-
senhower-Nixon” position on
everything except civil rights.
Nixon was the latest in a
series of leading Republicans
to speak out following a meet-
ing of Governor William Scran-
ton of Pennsylvania with form-
er President Eisenhower on
Saturday.
Scranton said today he
doesn’t believe that he will fin-
ally emerge as the nominee.
The Pennsylvania governor said
that he and his progressive-
minded colleagues will try to
make their views known to
Goldwater.
PrcMure Applied
Republican governors at the
annual conference in Cleveland
are seeking a statement of
principles running contrary to
some of Goldwater’s views, to
be presented to the GOP con-
vention platform committee.
Governor Mark Hatfield of
Oregon, to be the keynote
speaker at the convention in
San Francisco, said he and his
colleagues hope to agree on a
document. He said it would cad
for a strong platform declara-
tion on civil rights, would advo-
cate compulsory social secur-
ity and urge the US to stay in
the United Nations.
Goldwater has opposed some
provisions of the civil rights
bill, has proposed that social
security be put on a voluntary
basis, and lias said that the
US ought to get out of th«
UN if it admits Red China.
In Detroit today, Nixon said
Goldwater had changed his
views on some of these issues.
A car driven by K. E. Ross,
1011 North Davis Street, back-
Gulf Oil Corporation was re-| fired and caught fire briefly on
ported testing its No. 1 Rut.h j Davis Street Sunday night.
Methodist Youth Group
Returns From Excursion
Thirty-five tired members of appendicitis, especially when
the First Methodist Church’s
senior youth fellowship return-
ed Sunday from a two-week
trip to Washington, New York
and the World’* Fair.
Called the "United Nation-
Washington Seminar," the trip
sent to youths to such places
as the grave of President Ken-
nedy in Arlington, Va., the
floor of the House of Repre-
sentatives in Washington and
the United Nations General As-
sembly in New York, the Radio
City Music Hsll and the New
York World's Fair.
The youths were accompan-
ied by nine adults, including
Charles Moore, youth director
of the church.
It was at the Music Hail that
the only accident of the trip
oeeurred when Moore dipped
on the steps going into the
building and fell some distance.

Rep. Wright Patman and
Sen. Ralph Yarborough were
hosts to the visiting Methodists.
Sen. Yarborough entertained
them with coffee and tea while
answering questions about poli-
tics.
“About the civil rights bill
he said he was in favor of in-
voking cloture, but he would
not commit himself on the bill
itself,” Moore ssid. “Patman,
of course, said that he was op-
posed to the bOl.”
One of the youths asked Rep.
Patman who was toe greatest
President he had served under
during his more titan 36 years
in Washington, s r-
“He reviewed them all, and
then said there was none like

Texas Caught
In Hot Spell
Texas is caught up in a hot
spell.
For instance. Sulphur Spring*
had its warmest nights of the
year Saturday and Sunday,
I with minimums both times at
70 degrees, yet early Monday
the city was among the coolest
reporting points in Texas.
Only Dalhart, Alpine and
Presidio reported cooler over-
night lows in the Monday
morning report. Dalhart was the
coolest at 66 degrees. Mini-
mums generally were in the
upper 70* across the state.
By noon Monday the mer-
cury had reached 85 degrees
in Sulphur Springs on its way
into the forecast 90s. Strong
gusts of dry wind from the
south blunted the effects of
the temperature somewhat,
however.
Sunday’s high temperature
here was 91 degrees, the second
hottest days yet of the year.
Presidio had a high of 109 de-
grees, the hottest in the state.
Continued hot weather is ex-
pected in most, areas through
the afternoon, but weathermen
report a codl front moving
across Colorado and New Mex-
ico which could bring lowered
temperatures to western por-
tions of the state tonight.
The long-range weather out-
look for the Northeast Texa*
area calls for temperatures to
run above normal for the week,
with a slight chance for scat-
tered thundershower activity
near mid-week.
