In Montgomery, Birmingham and Mobile--the state's three largest cities--Negroes obtained service in public eating places without incident. Movies also were desegregated in downtown Birmingham. Police were noticeably absent there as Negroes entered at least nine eating establishments and were served. Some went to a cafeteria and walked through the serving line with their trays. Birmingham Mayor Albert Boutwell said the city does not intend to enforce the civil rights law, but that "our sole duty is to preserve peace and maintain order no matter who may wish to test the law and no matter who may comply or not comply." The mayor said the rights of Negroes would be protected if they used peaceful means to test and act.

Birmingham Hotel Association and Birmingham Motel Association issued a joint statement that their members would honor the public accommodations sections of the law and provide rooms and dining room service to all comers, regardless of race, creed or national origin.

I hope that things will work out for the Fidel's Kin Aided CIA 4 Years, Sources Say WASHINGTON (AP) Fidel Castro's sister Juanita voluntarily supplied the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency valuable information for four years before she fled to Mexico from Cuba last week, authoritative sources said Friday. These authorities seculated that Castro and his brother, Raul, a trusted aide, let her seek asylum in Mexico because they were fed up with her opposition and figured it was the simplest way of dealing with a family squabble. Juanita Castro Ruz left Cuba openly June 20 on a scheduled airline flight to Mexico City and denounced Castro's Communist regime as a puppet of "Russian imperialism." It was generally known in Havana that she opposed the regime and was critical of her brother.

Thus, it seemed she had to have either the help or consent of either Fidel or Raul Castro or both to leave Cuba freely. U.S. sources said the CIA made contact with Miss Castro shortly after Fidel Castro took over power four years ago. She was described as cooperating voluntarily with CIA because of her strong opposition to her brother's policies. Another factor in her with her brothers been that Miss Castro known may, to be a religious person, accordling to persons here familiar with her.

During her long cooperation with the CIA, the sources said, Miss Castro provided data which helped considerably in piecing together more complete information. The New York Herald Tribune said in a story about Miss Castro's activities that she also had, helped at least 200 persons flee Cuba before she herself defected. ALL There was no indication here of any split between Fidel and Raul, the deputy prime minister and chief of the Cuban armed forces, about their sister going to Mexico City. Knowledgeable authorities speculated that Fidel approved her going and the arrangements were supervised by Raul. The suspicion is that they felt she could be dealt with more openly outside Cuba and the United States could be blamed their troubles.

Fidel Castro told reporters in Havana on Wednesday that the U.S. Em-1 bassy in Mexico had written a Mrs. Margaret Crenshaw Dies Following Long Illness Mrs. Margaret Pyne Crenshaw, wife of attornev Jack Crenshaw and a leader in community affairs here for many years, died at a local hospital Friday afternoon following an extended illness.

Complete CAPITAL EDITION U.S. Lead In A Is Pushed Competition For Leadership Of Electric Power WASHINGTON (AP) The United States is pushing to convert into permanent gains a big U.S. early lead in the new atomic race.

The competition of the 1960s is for leadership in atomic electric power. And, as in the first nuclear race-for weapons mastery the stakes are tremendous. U.S. authorities calculated Friday that by 1980, if half the new atomic power plants built abroad use American design, U.S. enriched uranium sales to them will total some $6 billion to $8 billion.

The United States is the only big supplier of this type of nuclear fuel. Furthermore, this dollar gain would be accompanied by the immeasurable political, prestige value to America in being the foremost provider of large electric power systems around the world. ALL The international contest is intensifying as word spreads that atomic science is crossing the threshhold from small experimental, high cost power plants into an era of largescale nuclear power, cheaper in many places the conventional hydroelectric rates. U.S. Offics gave this account: The sales competition so far is mainly among a handful of western nations the United States, Britain, France, Canada.

The Soviets have yet to put any large atomic reactor into operation outside their own territory. A The main buying interest comes from the more industrialized areas of the free world. The backward areas have high conventional power costs, but atomic energy is not yet the solution for them They lack power lines able to carry big loads, constant heavy electricity demand, and the money to install atomic power. The perimentation preliminary have years proved of ex-2 yond question that American atomic reactors are superior to those developed by scientists of other countries. The U.S.

reactors are cheaper to build than the the foreign varieties, and prices offered by U.S. companies can go even lower, assuming sales are made on a large scale, Marketing Bill Signed President Johnson signed JOHNSON CITY, Tex.

Fifth Day In 90s NEW YORK (AP) For the fifth successive day, the temperature has reached into the 90s in this World's Fair city. The reading was 93 at 3:50 p.m. Friday. MRS. CRENSHAW Succumbs Here Friday By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Segregation of public accommodations fell away silently Friday in many Southern cities and towns where early testing of the civil rights bill came on a small scale.

The calm with which some hold-out segregationists accepted the change almost matched the historic enactment of the sweeping legislation a century after Lincoln emancipated the slaves. Even the Ku Klux Klan urged white persons in Mississippi coastal areas to let police handie any racial trouble. Leaflets distributed in the areas called on white persons "to stand back and to avoid conflict. These people (the Negroes) want Mississippi placed under martial law." They, gained admittance to formerly white theaters and were served in restaurants or at lunch counters for the first time in other places of stiff resistance before President Johnson signed the civil rights bill into law Thursday. AL Negroes peacefully integrated places in Petersburg, Albany, Valdosta and Americus, Terrell County where the federal government filed its first suit several years ago against voter registration discrimination.

In Tallahassee and Tampa, and Memphis, racial barriers fell away in the first tests. But not all the tests were successful. Negroes were refused service at one Memphis restaurant and three places in Valdosta, Ga. But there no trouble, no clashes or arrests. The only arrest, in fact, was of an Atlanta television cameraman, Dave Riggs, jailed in Albany, for refusing to leave a restaurant where Negroes were served.

Riggs said he was trying to film the group when arrested under Georgia's antitrespass law. communities, noting that both stations have pioneered television in their respective communities. Covington said the people of Montgomery are fortunate in the WLEX-TV owners' decision to further their television investments by purchase of the Montgomery stations. He said the Lexington company is recognized as "one of the leaders in the broadcast field, with a long and distinguished record of community service." Hunt Continues In City Slaying Montgomery police continued a search late Friday for the alleged killer of a 29-year-old white bondsman, Clifford Ruff. The wanted man, a Negro identified as Joshua Samuel Shine of 2204 Roosevelt was still at large as darkness fell Friday.

Police said Shine had temporarily eluded pursuers, but the searchers were continuing to every possible avenue of escape. Shine reportedly shot Ruff and wounded him fatally with a shotgun as the bondsman was attempting to make an arrest of the Negro for failure to appear in court. The shooting took place at 5 a.m. Thursday. Ruff died 45 minutes later.
