Day. According to the Governors’ dis-

patches the plan provided for as-

sassination of the Governor and other senior British officers; mur-

der of district police officers, other Europeans, "turncoat” Africans, and Asiatics, including women and children; and sabotage of communi- cations, gasoline dumps, and the main power station at Blantyre.

In the first phase of the plan, according to the white paper, vio- lence was to be avoided. But in the second phase, Dr. Hastings Banda, leader of the Nyasaland African Congress, was expected to be ar-

rested, and this would be the sig- nal for the campaign of violence to

be directed by his lieutenants. The governor’s report says that

ence in lAccra last December relat- ing. to the use of violence as a

means of achieving self-govern- ment. _

The resolution is quoted as say- ing that the conference "declares its full support to all fighters for freedom in Africa, to all those who resort to peaceful means of nonviolence and civil disobedience, as well as to all those who are com-

pelled to retaliate against violence to attain national independence and freedom for the people.

"Where such retaliation becomes necessary, the conference condemns all legislations which consider those who fight for their independ- ence and freedom as ordinary crim- inals."

The Governor's report comments: "It'is known that this resolution, in fact, represents a compromise between the concept of ‘nonviolent’ positive action advocated by cer-

tain representatives at the confer- ence and the demand for the posi- tive use of violence put forward by others."

The actions of the Nyasaland African Congress are aimed at in- dependence and self-government for Nyasaland. Britain, the protect- ing power, has sought to build up the federation of Southern Rhodes- ia, Northern Rhodesia, and Nyasa- land into a multiracial society which could provide an answer to

the problem of race and color in Africa.

British feelings following the

publication of the Nyasaland white paper March 23 appear to be more

split tha never. The supporters of Prime Minister Harold Macmil- lan’s government are for the most

part accepting the report of the Governor as justification for his action in declaring a state of emergency.

The I.aborite opposition in Par- liament is skeptical. Labor mem-

bers of Parliament are denouncing

about trying to Vote, all the more skeptical about the ability of the Federal Government to help them out. *

In the same way, the. decision is likely to encourage those Sou- thern elements determined to keep Negroes from voting. The Attor- ney General of Alabama, MacDon- ald Gallion, hailed it as “a sound defeat for the South-hating Federal civil rights mongers."

The decision was handed .down by one of the most respected Fed- eral district judges in the South, Frank M. Johnson, Jr., of Alabama. He dismissed a suit brought by the Justice Department to make the registrars of Macon County, Ala., register some twenty Negroes evidently qualified tQ vote.

The tough legal problem in the case was that the registrars had re-

signed before the suit was brou- ght—in connection with an earlier Civil Rights Commission investiga- tion of their practices.

Justice Department lawyers argued, first, that under Alabama law the registrars’ resignation could not be effective until succes-

sors qualified. Alternatively, in

case the registrations were legal, they named the State of Alabama as defendant and said the state should be compelled to register qualified Negro voters.

Judge Johnson rejected both arguments. He said the registrars had effectively resigned. And he said the Civil Rights Act of 1957, which allowed the Justice Depart- ment to seek injunctions on behalf of would-be voters, permitted suits only against individuals, not states.

The legal import of the case may in fact be limited. For one thing I it will be appealed. For another, in other cases the Justice Depart- ment may be able to sue recalcit- rant registrars before they resign

; —and any attempted resignations while they are parties to a lawsuit would be much more difficult legal-

; ly- But there remains the psycholo-

gical damage to a program that— whatever the reason—has been ex-

tremely slow getting off the

ground. Since the 1957 act was

passed, only two voting suits have been brpught by the Justice De- j partment. Others are being studied, but no one can discern a massive assault on Southern voting pat- terns.

The impatience of Mr. Rogers’ Congressional questioners was di- rected primarily to school and housing segregation rather than to voting. They wondered why the Administration had not sought broad authority to bring injunc- tion suits on behalf of any civil rights—authority asked by the de- partment but refused by Congress

; in 1957. Mr. Rogers counseled the sub-

! committees to avoid excessive re-

liance on lawsuits for social change. [ He said arming the Justice Depart- ] ment with such broad injunctive power might simply increase re-

sistance in the South by feeding its image of a dominant Federal Government trying to impose its will on Southern communities.

The position taken by Mr. Rog- ers is based on the assumption that the grudging accommodation the Deep South has begun to make on

the school issue will continue. The recent collapse of massive

resistance in Virginia and the ad- mission of a few Negroes to white schools there are regarded by Mr.

Rogers as developments that should be allowed to proceed without Fed- eral pressure.

Should there be new and more

forecful resistance to integration, the position of the Justice Depart- i

ment may change. Next fall may indeed see such

a shift in the situation. School litigation is coming to a head in Atlanta, and it is hard to predict

I what course Georgia state officials will follow.

But in any case the present ses-

sion of Congress is most unlikely to approve legislation giving the Federal Government substantial new powers to seek injunctive re-

lief in civil rights matters. Such a provision may be passed

by the House, but it is unlikely to survive Senate attack except per- haps in some sharply limited form.

The next civil rights act is like- ly to include provisions:

(1) to help the Justice Depart- ment obtain state voting records;

(2) to provide some Federal

the Governor’s evidence as flimsy. The press is divided, too. The

Times, of London, reads the white paper as disposing of two accusa-

tion^ which have been made against the Governor.

1. That the massacre* plot was

trumped up to get rid of Dr. Banda and Congress leaders;

2. That he was jockeyed into repressive action against Nyasa- land Africans by Sir Roy Welen- sky, Prime Minister of the federa- tion.

Lord Beaverbrook’s Conservative Daily Express traces the Nyasa- land situation to outside trouble- makers. The Daily Mail accepts the Governor’s report.

But liberal papers like the Man- chester, Guardian and the News Chronicle are not convinced. The Manchester Guardian says that if all that the Governor says is true than “it is a mark of bitter fail- ure for the British and federal au-

thorities.” The News Chronicle contends

that the sources of information about the “massacre plot” are prob- ably African informers who are

1 paid by the police for their stories.

Work Underway* On Largest LPG Storage

Houston, Tex.—Construction of what is expected to become the largest single underground stor- age reservoir for liquefied petrol- eum gases in the nation has been started at a site near Houston, according to Millard K. Neptune, senior vice president of Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation. The site is at the center of Bar- ber’s Hill Salt Dome, a giant un-

derground deposit of pure salt lo- cated on State Highway 146 near

Mont Belvieu, about 25 miles east of Houston, Mr. Neptune said.

The first storage well, common-

ly known as a “jug well,” was

spudded in last week and will be drilled to a total depth of about 3500 feet or about 2500 feet into the salt. Upon completion of the well, fresh water will be used to wash out a cavity in the salt which will hold 21,000,000 gallons of LPGas. A second jug well of the same capacity is planned later this summer.

When completed this fall, both wells will aggregate a storage ca-

pacity of 42,000,000 gallons which will be used as an accumulation storage terminal for LPGas pro- duced in the Texas Gulf Coast area

and destined for shipment through Texas Eastern’s Little Big Inch pipe line to Midwestern and East- ern markets. The Company will also construct a 12-inch pipe line this summer to connect the Mont Belvieu terminal with the Little

I Big Inch pumping station at Bay- ; town, Mr. Neptune said.

| This storage terminal will great- ; ly increase the flexibility of Texas ! Eastern’s petroleum products pipe

line operations. -Shippers will be

| able to deliver LPGas through ex-

! isting pipe lines to the Mont Bel- vieu storage wells at small inter-

percent of the yearly operating costs of the member colleges and universities. Thirty-two of the 33 institutions are located in the South. Their student enrollment is more than 24,000. All member's are privately supported, accredited four-year colleges.

Wildcat In Hinds Underway At Midway

J«tt Drilling Company is under- way at a new 13,300-foot wildcat well about 4 >4 miles northwest of Terry in southern Hinds Coun- ty, Mississippi.

Wildcat is No. 1 John T. Bridg- et, 330’ S and 664’ E of NW/cor SE NW Section 2-3N-2W, Hinds County, lying about 13 miles south- west of Jackson. The proposed depth of the well should penetrate about 600 feet into the top of the Hosston formation.

mittent rates of flow. From there, the accumulated LPGas will be pumped in periodic batch move- ments northward in the Little Big Inch at pumping rates in excess of 6,000 barrels (210,000 gallons) per hour, he said.

The Little Big Inch pipe line will transport the LPGas to deliv- ery terminals as far east as Tod- hunter Terminal near Cincinnati,, where additional underground stor- age facilities are nearing comple- tion.

Texas Eastern’s petroleum prod- ucts pipe line system extends from the Gulf Coast northward as far as Chicago and eastward as far as Lebanon, Ohio. This common

carrier system regularly carries a

full range of clean petroleum prod- ucts, including LPGas.

Location for the wildcat is on a

highly regarded seismic prospect which was worked by several of the companies holding interests in' the area and supporting the test. Deal was worked up by A' C. Duerr of Tulsa and. Bert E. Gamble of Shreveport and contains a block of about 1160 acres. Joe W. Brown, Honolulu Oil Corpration, Sun Oil Company and California Company are supporting the well with acre-

age contributions, and Pan Ameri- can Petroleum Corporation is sup- porting the well with a lease pur-
