African members of the Commonwealth have threatened to bolt it if Smith gets way.

A force of 80 state troopers, double the usual complement of police, stymied the attempts by pulling some of the Negro youngsters off the road when they lav down and by grabbing when they charged the line of officers. It was the 11th consecutive day of racial demonstrations in Crawfordville. Today's demonstrations took place as the state troopers were changing shifts and the 40 policemen going off teamed up with 40 others replacing them to thwart the bus- boarding attempts. There were no arrests and no violence.

An escort of eight patrol cars moved through town and accompanied the buses out of Crawfordville to nearby Greene and Warren counties. Tali (Crawfordville) County elosed its only white school in an effort to prevent integration. Most of the Negro pupils have boycotted their ow'n segregated high school. A federal tribunal is scheduled to begin a hearing Tuesday to decide whether the county should be ordered to reopen the white high school, or if Negro pupils also may be transported to predominantly white schools in adjacent counties. Meanwhile, the head of the powerful National Education Association (NEA) reported he may call on his organization if necessary to help fight alleged discrimination in this racially tense town.

Specifically, Abba Schwartz, administrator of the Bureau of Security and Consular Affairs, attempted to obtain authority to automatically permit the 270,000 Cuban refugees now in the U. S. to change their status from to American after two years residence.

Knowu privately as amendment, the little publicized measure was slipped through the Senate without debate after being rejected in the Judiciary immigration subcommittee. It was finally shelved for this Congress when a majority of the conferees, ironing out differences in the Senate- Housc versions of the President's immigration program, vigorously objected to its inclusion. Instead, these legislat voted to turn the amendment over for further study to a 15 member special commission that President Johnson and Congress will join 11 name to consider Latin American immigration problems.

A vote was scheduled to table motion to consider the repeal bill. The vote was expccted to be an indicator of Senate sentiments for the bill and chanccs for ending the filibuster. While the administration is believed to have enough support to pass the House-approved bill, it apparently lacks the required two-thirds majority to end the debate and bring the bill to a vote. Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield of Montana engineered the test vote.

On the basis of outcome he will decide whether to make a try for cloture. The bill would repeal section 14-B of the Taft-Hartley Act under which states may enact laws banning agreements. Nineteen states have such laws. Other congressional news: Bcauiy: A bill to initiate a $320 million, two-year program of highway beautification headed for a llouse-Scnate conference.

EST to reporters assembled in the hospital auditorium. Johnson remained in the operating room immediately after the surgery. He was to be moved to a third floor suite later to recuperate for the next 10 to 14 days. Mrs. Johnson had a room across the hall.

Remove Gall Stone In his initial announcement, Moyers said the surgeons found a gall stone when they removed the gall bladder. He explained that they also had discovered and removed a kidney stone from the ureter, a tube canceling the bladder and kidney. There had been no advance word that the President was suffering from a kidney stone. He has a record of kidney stones, however, and the surgeons had stated they would explore other nearby organs. Doctors said earlier it was possible the President might be See JOHNSON On Page a Tear Gas Used To Rout Reds SAIGON of U.S.

paratroopers and Australian infantrymen used tear gas today to flush Communist guerrillas from hiding in a major offensive against the Viet Cong stronghold northwest of Saigon.

The Americans and Aussies advanced behind mortars, grenades and a solid wall of automatic weapons fire in the drive only 20 miles from Saigon, The approval for use of tear gas was made despite criticism from some quarters after its use in an operation a few months ago.

The targets in North Viet Nam were in the vicinity of historic Dicn Bien Phu in the northwest and Vinh on the coast, the U.S. spokesman said.
