Those guys had bicycle chains and brass knuckles and the women wore spiked heels, recalls security chief John J. Cosgrove, who ran to the council floor and went to the side of the late Dag UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) There was nothing to distinguish the two well-dressed businessmen from the hundreds of other persons hurrying past the guard post to their offices in the U.N.

Secretariat the other morning. They carried no bulky briefcases or oversize packages, yet the guard stopped them, letting Hammarskjold as the mob the others hurry by. The two screamed threals at the secre- ary-general. When a controversial world figure visits U. N.

headquarters the security officers must watch familiar faces as well as the unfamiliar. Feelings ran high among Jewish and Arab staffers during the Middle East War last summer and not infrequently a delegation from an unstable Middle East or African country will find they have a new boss overnight because of a change in government. Air conditioning men, janitors, and others on the U.N. staff augment the security force for special visitors and keep a wary eye out for suspects every day more than 50 of them are the United Nations and the guard politely directed them out the gate and to the visitors entrance. None of the others passing the gate showed identification.

They didnt need to. The guard knew their faces. An unerring memory for faces is perhaps the hey reason the 175-man U.N. Security Force has successfully protected most of the worlds top political leaders at one time or another in the last 21 years. Their charges have been bombed from the air, fired at from across the river, endangered by knife-wielding extremists in the Security Council and pestered by citizens, churchmen and charwomen.

Violent Demonstration The guards toughest physical challenge came in February Legislative Runoff Has 2 Negroes NEW OREANS (AP) Two Negroes made it into a runoff with white candidates for seats in the Louisiana Legislature Saturday, one missing the Democratic nomination by only 17 votes. Ernest N. Morial, a Negro backed by the citys two major newspapers, had 2,602 votes to 2,068 for Stephen Daley. Between them, the two other white candidates had 568 votes enough to thwart Morial from getting the nomination. Victory in the primary likely would have meant a Negro in the state legislature for the first time since Reconstruction days following the Civil War.

National party loyalists accused Wallace forces of trying to win next years 10 Democratic electors by subterfuge. Eddie Carmouche, chairman of the central committee a loyalist, said if Wallace gets the rooster next year, it would mean thousands of votes he would not normally get from the straight-party voter. Voters' Intelligent That may have been true at one time, said C.

H. (Sammy) Downs, an aide to Gov. John McKeithen and Wallace supporter. But voters are too intelligent nowadays. They dont vote that way any more.

What conservatives sought to capture was the so called swing vote on the committee. Party leaders said about 20 votes have swung from one side to the other in past years. The loyalist campaign lacked the vigor of the conservatives drive. One reason was to avoid any pro-Johnson label, said key loyalist members of the ACADIA WINNER Elton A. Arceneaux won re-election as sheriff of Acadia Parish in yesterdays Democratic Development Of Individual, Race, Adult Responsibility NEW ORLEANS, La.

(AP) George Wallace forces in Louisiana put together a well-organized campaign in their drive to capture control of the state Democratic Central Committee and become states main voice in presidential politics next year. The drive resulted in a heavy Geld of more than 350 candidates for the 117-member committee in Saturdays Democratic primary. Leander Perez segregationist leader in Plaquemines Parish, appealed to the voters via statewide television. Conservatives conducted extensive newspaper advertising campaigns for party seats. Aim of the states righters was to win solid control of the committee and force President Johnson to a third-party role on the 1968 presidential ballot in Louisiana.

Coveted Emblem That would give the former Alabama governor the preferred spot on the ballot and the coveted emblem of the rooster, which identifies Democratic candidates in Louisiana. The conservative candidates called on Democrats to give Louisiana a free choice in presidential politics. They criticized the selection of national party candidates in smoke filled rooms. Leaders of the drive watched ernment and law is to serve the people and not the other way around.

Rising insurance rates was the prime issue. Incumbent Dudley Guglielmo had the support of Gov. John McKeitben, but challengers John Davidson, Jack Simpson, Raymond Wingate and State Sen. Spencer Myrick campaigned vigorously. Guglielmo said he fought all rate increases gut his opponents said he could have been more effective in doing so.

Conservative newspaper publisher Ned Touchstone called for a return to segregated schools in Louisiana in his attempt to unseat Supt. of Education William J. Dodd, a veteran state politician. The voting machine custodian race between incumbent Doug las Fowler and Jerome Sauer, a former employe of Fowlers office. produced little campaign activity.

Republicans failed to put ud a candidate for any of the three offices. sidered good in the heavily Negro district The other Negro to make it into the runoff primary was the Rev. A. L. Davis, a member of the state Bi-Radal Commission.

Davis, with 4,683 votes, will face Eugene OBrien, a white man who received 5,417 votes. There were three other white candidates in the race for the New Orleans House seat. Morial had the endorsement of both the Times-Picayune and the New Orleans States-Item, the citys two major daily newspapers. 'Has Best Chance' Before votes were tabulated, state NAACP secretary Emmitt J. Douglas of New Roads said, Morial has the best chance of all 26 Negroes running for the legislature throughout the state.

He has everything in his favor. Mortals base. Wards 1 and 2, is an old section of the city made up largely of industries, housing projects and slums. It is about 61 per cent Negro populated. Previously, Morial had run without success for state attorney general and lieutenant governor.

Negro leaders predicted at least three members of their race would win Democratic Party nomination in the primary. There was no early word of how other Negroes running for the legislature fared. Colorful GOP Politician Dead At 92 ALLEGAN. Mich. (AP) When Republican Clare E.

Hoffman was first elected to Congress in 1934, he told his family he wasnt interested in serving. He had been drafted to run in the first place. After he finally gave in to the pleadings of his political supporters, Washington became his favorite battleground. For the next 28 years, until his retirement in 1962, Hoffman was known as one of the most colorful and controversial men in Congress. He died Friday night in an Allegan hospital at the age of 92.

No one ever accused Hoffman of contracting Potomac Fever. He never attended a capital cocktail party or took part in congressional inspection tour junkets to far-off countries. Friends said Hoffman spent 28 years in Washington without c-hanging his old his mind. Through the years, Hoffman became known as a rugged individualist and a lone wolf on Cauitol Hill. A stauch conservative and a strong supporter of the late Sen.

We must help to develop our young people not only to further our own social structure but the entire human race, Green said. An individual must learn to become a human being.

He does this through inter-Dersonal relationships. We learn ati-tudes, values and ideals. The whole process of human development is a never ending one from one' generation to another Green said the only way he could see that man can continue to become greater than he is. is by this process. Anti-American Ideas Because of this process of developing and the fact that young children learn from everything, the good and the bad, the loving and the unloving.

Green expressed concern that today the young people are being bombarded with anti-American ideas and that very few are standing up for American ideas. My concern, he said, is that iJf no one in our generation stands up and commits himself how do we perpetuate the values on which our socieyt has been based? I am suggesting that we communicate Patriotism not nationalism but patriotism and to me there is a difference. Green defined nationalism as the belief that it is ones destiny to insure that all unenlightened peoples of the world accept our system and our ideology. Nationalism to me is rigid, ruthless and authoritarian, he said, and is based in the belief that only our customs and our ways are right and all others are wrong. Committment to Values On the other hand patriotism is a holding and a committment to values established by our history as a nation and a willingness to commit oneself to the preservation of ideas for which the United States stands.

I am not so much concerned with a particular geography of the world or a particular favored people, but I am concerned with the idea that all responsi ble men should be free to choose and that the role of gov 39 18 48 2 113 148 Two Schools In Harlem Doing Well NEW YORK (AP) Two el mentary schools in Central Ha lem cannot be included in tl statistics which show that Ne York City slum schools gener ly are not the place to learn read.
