Hughes Backs Palmer, But Admits Lags Highway Building Slow-Ups Blamed On Communities Press Stale House Bureau TRENTON Gov.

Richard J. Hughes defended Highway Commissioner Dwight R. G. Palmer from criticism yesterday but conceded there have been slow-ups in highway construction in the state. He said the main reason for the slow-ups have been community objections to various projects.

And he also noted that both he and his predecessor, Gov. Robert B. Meyner, lopped many millions of dollars off of Highway Department budget requests. Cites 3-Year Cuts "Last year I knocked out $9 million and the year before $11 million." ov. Hughes said.

"The year before that, Gov. Meyner knocked out more than $9 million." Gov. Hughes said he will try to set up an all-day meeting with Mr. Palmer soon to go over the entire highway situation. "One of these days we're going to have a half day's flying and a half day's talking," he said.

The flying would be for the purpose of making an over-all survey of the status of highway projects. Criticized by Murphy Gov. Hughes' comments were made at his press conference in response to a question about criticism of Mr. Palmer by Vincent J. Murphy, state AFL-CIO president.

Mr. Murphy called for Mr. Palmer's resignation in a speech Monday night at the convention of the labor organization in Atlantic City. He said there is "no hope for any future highway construction in New Jersey as long as Dwight R. G.

Palmer remains in office." Gov. Hughes noted that Mr. Murphy had attacked Mr. Palmer before. He said he made his "annual rebuttal" in a speech yesterday before the same convention.

"I told them I didn't think it was quite fair to blame Palmer because you only build roads with money." 2,105 On Road Jobs He said there are now 2,105 contractors' employees working on 49 highway jobs in the state, including 25 interstate projects involving new road construction and seven bridge projects. He said he told the AFL-CIO convention that in the past five years he and Gov. Meyner have See PALMER Page 10 An' whose little senator are you?" Nation Negroes Go To Classes At Alahama TUSCALOOSA, Ala. Ul Two Negroes attend their first classes today at the University of Alabama after federalized state guardsmen marched onto the campus and Gov. George Wallace abandoned his doorway defiance of the federal government.

The students Vivian Malone of Mobile and James A. Hood of Gadsden, spent the night in dormitories guarded by federal marshals. They enrolled yesterday after the governor for a brief time stood off federal authorities, then yielded in the face of Alabama National Guard troops federalized by President Kennedy's orders. Miss Malone, studying business administration, and Mr. whose major is psychology, will be in school only one day before the possibility of another crisis arises.

A third Negro student, Dave Mc Glathery, plans to enroll Thursday at the university's Huntsville center. Gov. Wallace declined to say last night whether he would repeat his stand in the doorway. Calls Action Illegal The 43-year-old governor, grim and determined, stood off federal officials in the first meeting. He read a proclamation to "denounce and forbid this illegal and unwarranted action by the central government." The federal officials and the Negro students withdrew temporarily.

A short time later, Gov. Wallace was confronted by Brig. Gen. Henry V. Graham, assistant com.

mander of the 31st infantry division of the National Guard. The tall military-erect Gen. Graham saluted. The governor, his chin thrust forward but his face now bleak, wailed. Already moving in were the first details of Alabama national guardsmen, some of them summoned here by Gov.

Wallace to keep order if necessary and now affirming their allegiance to the national government. The General Asks Gen. Graham said he had been commanded to ask Gov. Wallace to step aside. The governor, who had earlier been told by the President to give up his defiance, replied: "I wish to make a statement.

"But for the unwarranted federalization of the National Guard, I would be your commander-in-chief. In fact, I am your commander-in-chief. "I know this is a bitter pill for you." And for the youthful governor it obviously was bitter defeat. Gov. Wallace said again that Alabama's citizenry should refrain from violence, he denounced the federal government's "trend to military dictatorship" and then almost angrily unhooked a micro-See CLASSES Page 2 131 N.J.

Sunday Bingo, Gas Station Limits OK'd BRADLEY BEACH Ordi nances allowing Sunday bingo and limiting the construction of serv ice stations were adopted yester day by the Board of Commis sioners. Gas stations are prohibited within 250 feet of residences or places of public assembly. Munici pal Clerk George L.

And the Tresident outlined a broad legislative program he will propose to Congress next week. He said it will be based on the proposition "that race has no place in American life or law." A great change is at hand, he said, and "our task, our obliga-lion, is to make that revolution, that change, peaceful and con-structive for all."

"When Americans are sent to Viet Nam or West Berlin, we do not ask for whites only," he said. it ought to be possible, therefore, for American students of any color to attend any public institution they select Without having to be backed up by troops." "In short, the President added, "every American ought to have the right to be treated as he would wish to be treated, as one would wish his children to be treated. But this is not the case."

Hughes said yesterday he plans to call a Republican-suggested bipartisan meeting on civil rights problems and indicated he might use the occasion to seek an end to GOP opposition to a housing discrimination bill.

The meeting was suggested Saturday by Mrs. Millicent Fen-wick, vice chairman of the Republican state committee. She said there was a civil rights crisis and an immediate bipartisan meeting should be held. Gov. Hughes said he was trying to arrange the meeting for June 19.

He said he might also seek to get his newly named 20-mem-ber Committee on Equal Employment Opportunities to hold its first meeting the same day. Then it could sit in at the bipartisan session, he said Can Pool Experience Leaders and legislators of both parties could "pool their experiences," Gov. Hughes said, and see if they can agree on a program. "This might be a breakthrough in our civil rights problems," Gov. Hughes sad.

The Republican Senate majority might want to reverse its stand on the fair housing bill, Gov. Hughes said. The bill has been passed by the Democratic Assembly two years in a row, but has been blocked in the Republican Senate caucus. The bill bans discrimination in the sale of all housing and rental of all housing except rooms in one-family houses and apartments in owner-occupied two-family houses. Gov.

Hughes said the next scheduled senate session June 28 is supposed to deal entirely with nominations and he is bound by a gentlemen's agreement not to expand the session. But if the Senate agrees to take up the housing bill, he would be delighted. Special Session Out A special legislative session during the summer is out, Gov. Hughes said, unless he gets some indication the Senate will change its attitude of the past year and a half. Gov.

Hughes said 20 or 30 people might be invited to the bipartisan civil rights meeting. He said he would preside, with the session probably being held in the state Assembly chamber. He commended Mrs. Fenwick's suggestion and said he would invite such people as the Republican and Democratic state chairmen, legislative leaders of both parties, and leaders of such groups as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Voters Shift School Type To Regional MANALAPAN TOWNSHIP -Voters yesterday approved, 219-20, changing the Manalapan-Englishtown Elementary School District from a consolidated to regional district.

Wilkins, executive secretary of the NAACP, said the death of Mr. Evers "demonstrates anew the blind and murderous hatred which obsesses too many Missis sippians."

The Ocean Board Holds School Plea Decision OCEAN TOWNSHIP-The Board of Adjustment reserved decision last night on an application to allow a private school in a prime residential zone. A decision was promised by the end of the month. The variance is sought by Russell G. Ranney who wants to operate a 200-pupil elementary-secondary school on the 5-acre Wismer estate, 60 Norwood Ave. The board heard three hours of testimony last night.

This followed four and a half hours of testimony at two previous sessions. Eugene Oross, New Brunswick, a professional planner testifying for the objectors, said he would never recommend a private school in the township's highest residential zone. Oross Testifies Mr. Oross said a public school would fit in the area because a neighborhood school is a required public facility. He said a private school does not fit in the area since its major aim is to make money and not to serve the neighborhood.

He also said the school would increase traffic on Norwood avenue and noise in the neighborhood. Three residents spoke against the school last night saying it would be noisy, increase traffic, and depreciate property values. They echoed charges made by the other objectors at the in-vious hearings. One of them, James F. McVeish.

The Board had approved by a 3-2 vote last Friday an option on the airport, despite an earlier promise to meet with the Committee before buying it.

Freeholder Benjamin H. Dan-skin, former Wall Township mayor, said he favored the purchase, but voted against the option because the Board had not met with the Committee.
