Celler (D- NY) handling it during six days of house debate. The defeat, Friday, 199-167, of the attempt by house southerners to write into the measure a larger role for local juries left no doubt that the house will pass the bill Monday without substantial changes. The house has agreed to close debate not later than 6 P. M. CLOUDED FUTURE The bill has a clouded future in the senate, which filibustering southerners in the past have made 8 graveyard for such legislation.

Its prospects brightened somewhat Saturday with news that Vice President Nixon, president of the senate, and Republican Leader Knowland of California were teaming up in an attempt to rush the bill onto the senate calendar without the usual preliminary of routing it to the judiciary committee. Such procedure, if successful, would get the bill past one pitfall, but would not eliminate an eventual filibuster. While southerners continue their battle in congress against President Eisenhower's civil rights bill, Negroes in Louisiana and Texas are planting new seeds in the fields of integration. BEGINNING Five Negro ministers rode in the white section of a public bus in Shreveport, Saturday. They called it the "beginning of integration" and that segregated city of the deep south.

There no arrests and no acts of violence. But Police Chief Harvey L. Teasley warned that arrests will be made in the future if Negroes refuse to take seats in the rear, as is customary under the pattern of segregation. All was quiet Saturday in Shreveport, Louisiana's secondlargest city. No further integration attempts were reported.

All five of the ministers who defied the state's segregated seating law mentioned the incident in their Sunday sermons, but did not make it a major theme. The incident was not mentioned from the pulpit of any white church. NAACP CONFAB In Austin, the 20th annual Texas conference of NAACP branches dedicated itself to "mass action for civil rights." "We will file a lawsuit Monday if any citizen comes to us and asks us to do so with the facts that his civil rights have been violated," said key" ote speaker W. J. Durham, a Dallas lawyer.

The Blair County Medical ciety has informed the polio chapter that "it will continue the Salk vaccine program in physicians' offices where children of needy parents who have not been inoculated in previous public programs can be given their free shots. This program will be county wide." CLINICS The polio chapter had wanted clinics similar to those last summer in which thousands of under 20 received the statepurchased Salk vaccine. The Medical society has said it will release a statement concerning the program within few days. Expressing appreciation of the cooperation by the Medical ciety in the earlier mass campaigns for children, the polio unit wrote the society that it had understood a pre-school clinic for children who otherwise could not receive the shots had been approved by the doctors' group.

The NFIP made public announcement of this plan. The Medical society responded that Salk vaccine should be provided pre-school children as other immunizations, such as tetanus, diphtheria, smallpox, by "private treatment a physicians office or by a physieian in charge of a well baby clinic." TOO MUCH PRIDE The polio group stressed that many parents can ill afford a fee for the vaccine and that many existing on minimum wages who are not eligible for free vaccine such as those on D. P. "have too much pride to ask their doctors for free services." The unit suggested either a coupon plan through which doctors could learn the number of children requiring the vaccine and arrange clinics in their offices or clinics set up by the polio group in which state-purchased vaccine could be used. County Gets Roads Funds From State HARRISBURG (Special) Payment of $107,588.70 has been made to Blair county by the state department of revenue as the county's share of a $7.3 million refund to counties throughout the state from liquid fuels tax collections during the first half of 1957.

The department said the money must be spent by the county commissioners within the corporate limits of the county, for construction, improvement maintenance of county roads and bridges. The funds are allocated to townships, borough and cities within the county at the discretion of the commissioners not the department of revenue. In January the county received $114,672.13 in liquid fuels tax refunds covering the last six months of 1956. As a point of comparison with the $107,588.70 six-month payment that has just been made, Blair county for the comparable first half period of 1956 received $99,619.26. The department noted that if bonds have been issued for the construction of county roads in Blair county the refund may be used for retirement of the bonds or in the payment of interest on the bonds.

This is usually the top priority, scheduled use--with remaining funds for county-operated roads and local political subdivisions within the county.
