Anti Castro demonstrators shouted and screamed at them, several times threatening to break through the police wall. Open Discussion The meeting was billed as an open discussion of the conditions the travelers found in Cuba and which they contend they were not allowed to describe earlier this week at hearings in Washington. Several times during the meeting police and anti-Castro demonstrators engaged in brief skirmishes which were put down by' V7l' LJ ships by less than 3 per cent of the vote.

He noted that the chairman of the Young Republicans, Donald Lukens of Washington, D.C., had advocated elimination of the income tax. Gov. Scranton of Penn BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Four Negro girls were blasted to death Sunday and 23 persons were injured in the daylight bombing of a church, setting off more violence. Within hours after the dynamite explosion had shattered an already shaky racial calm, two Negroes were killed in shootings, and three other persons were wounded.

Police said two white youths had shot fatally a Negro boy, 13, shortly after policemen had shot to death a Negro, 16. Officers the older boy had been killed as they fired over his head when they saw him throwing recks at cars. In another shooting, a white man was wounded by a Negro, police said. Another white man was wounded in a robbery attempt by a Negro. Rock-throwing by Negroes was reported in many areas of the city.

Leaders of the 125.000 Negroes pleaded against retaliation for the bombing, which brought a climax of horror to the city's first week of school desegregation. Mayor Speaks Mayor Albert Boutwell, voicing shock and disbelief, urged everyone Xo keep off the streets. Leaders of a white segregationist group seeking to start private schools called off a rally and and asked followers to go home. The bombing, which fanned racial fire to new heat, came during Sunday school. Heavy police patrols roved the city.

They sealed off the bomb-shattered church. Gov. George C. Wallace rushed in 300 state troopers and alerted 500 national guardsmen in Birmingham. Numerous policemen from surrounding towns and counties were called in.

Wallace called the bombing "a tragic event which has saddened the hearts of all Alabamians" and said "every law enforcement agency of this state will be used to apprehend" the bombers. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. of Atlanta, the Negro minister who led a summer desegregation campaign here, prepared to come to Birmingham "to plead with my people to remain nonviolent in the face of this terrible provocation."

Hatch, a Democrat, served in the senate from his appointment in 1933 until 1949, when he was appointed to the federal bench by President Harry S. Truman. Hatch left the bench in August 1962 because of illness. Hatch became one of the more powerful and influential members of Congress and often served as Senate spokesman for Truman. He probably was best known as the author of the 1939 Hatch act, which prohibited government payroll employes from contributing to political campaigns or taking part in politics.

The act excepted cabinet members and other top policy-making officials. Hatch also had a major role in early atomic energy policy, labor legislation and public lands. He was the son of a Kirwin, grocer, Harley A. Hatch. The family moved to Eldorado, when Hatch was 7.

At Eldorado he became a printer's ap end of the lesson, with a passage from Matthew: "But I say unto you, love your enemies." The children were meeting in various parts of the church: some in the basement, some in the main room, others in an adjacent building. The four killed were in the basement. Shattered windows, large pieces of mortar, and a broken marble plaque commemorating the founding of the church in 1873 were evidence of the destruction there. In one small room patches of blood were on the floor. At the end of a sharp piece of glass was more blood.

Strewn Glass Up the steps, in the main room, where church services are regularly held for a congregation of 750, glass was scattered on the wooden pews, over the piano and organ, on the pulpit. The organ pipes were left intact.
