Fair Chance Plea For All By BUCK BUCHWACH Managing Editor, The Advertiser President Kennedy warned here yesterday that the nation "faces a moment of moral and Constitutional crisis" in race relations and said "men of generosity and vision must make themselves heard in every part of the land." Speaking bluntly to the U.S. Conference of Mayors at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Long House, he urged that "every American be given a fair chance to develop in full whatever talents he has and to share equally in the American dream." More than 750 persons, many of them standing, gave President Kennedy a 40-second ovation when he finished his plea to mayors to help overcome the critical Negro racial strife now torturing the nation. Merriman Smith, UPI White House correspondent, said the speech was Kennedy's "most pointed discussion to date of the growing civil rights crisis." LOOKING TANNED AND fit, his nose sunburned slightly, the President smiled only once during his speech when he began his speech with "aloha" and the mayors More Photos, Stories On 6, B-2 St." 1 I ill a ll IN II ---I- Crowd slows presidential with JFK are Governor Burns and Senator Inouye.

Then the President turned serious for the 22 minutes of his speech. He told the mayors that federal and state action can help to meet the civil rights problem, but "in the last analysis, what happens to Birmingham or Chicago or Atlanta or Los Angeles depends in a large measure on the leadership in those communities. "We (the Federal government) will back you up but the mayor of every metropolitan city in every section of America must be aware of the difficult challenge he faces," Kennedy said. He suggested the mayors, on. their return from the Honolulu conference, "can set an example in your communities to which the timid can rally and which those clinging to the past cannot ignore." THE PRESIDENT asked them to join with him "in guiding along constructive channels the attainment of a peaceful revolution which will not only avoid disaster but fulfill our highest obligations." Kennedy said "the time for token moves and idle talk is over these rights are going to be won our responsibility is to see that they are won in a peaceful and constructive manner.

"Rising summer temperatures are often accompanied by rising human temperatures on all sides," he said, and TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (UPI) Combat-equipped National Guardsmen and a sprinkling of civilians armed with rifles, clubs and baling hooks arrived in this college town yesterday and Gov. George Wallace went on television to appeal for peace during tomorrow's integration crisis, when two Negroes are scheduled to enroll at the University of Alabama. The civilians, most of them young men, apparently showed up to back the fiery governor in his pledge to physically block the court-ordered admission of two Negroes Vivian Malone and James A.

The civilians were promptly arrested by state troopers, who have been on hand here for the past three days.

The governor disclosed that he planned to leave for Tuscaloosa at 3 p.m. (EDT) today and spend the night on the university campus.

In his report to the people of Alabama, Wallace renewed a plea that all persons stay away from the campus. "You can stand up for Alabama and stand with me by staying away on Tuesday," Wallace said in his statewide television address. "We want no unauthorized persons at the University of Alabama." WALLACE termed his planned confrontation with federal authorities "a constitutional crisis."

Here are some of the comments Mayor Richard Daley, Chicago: "It was a great speech. It placed before the members of the conference the one great problem everyone in America is concerned with human relations.

The mayors have been always fighting for the right to solve their own problems and now he's given them the chance. This brings it into focus."

JFK To ign Equality Bill President Kennedy today will sign into law a bill giving women equal pay for equal work, Press Secretary Pierre Salinger said in Honolulu yesterday. Salinger said the President will sign the bill-hailed as the greatest advance in women's rights in many years this morning after his return to Washington from his western trip. The bill forbids employers to pay women less than men for doing the same work. It does not go into effect for at least one year.

The legislation does not cover all women workers, and it is not known how many of the nation's 24 million workers will get higher pay as a result. Only those women working in establishments covered by the minimum wage law will get the new protection. About 27.5 million men and women workers are covered by the minimum wage law. among non-whites, and said reduction of school drop-outs might be the most important of the five areas within the next 10 years. "An uneducated child makes an uneducated parent," Kennedy said, and warned that the increase in non-skilled labor market because of school drop-outs might prove in the next 10 years to be "the most serious problem in our history." The President promised support for any city that moves to guarantee civil rights.

He said the Federal government "neither starts, directs, nor stops" civil rights demonstrations. "What we can do is seek, through legislative and executive action, to provide peaceful remedies for the grievances which set them off to give all Americans a fair chance to a full life." THE PRESIDENT said the Federal government has "supported equal rights in the courts and the Congress, and will shortly prepare further steps." Kennedy said justice cannot wait too long, however. "It cannot await the action of the Congress or even the courts. "I do not say that all men are equal in their ability, character and motivation," the President said. "I do say that every American should be given a full chance to develop in full whatever talents he has to share equally in the American dream." UNITED THf EXTR4 CAM AMINt.
