The veto killed the joint U.S.British resolution condemning . Syria for the “wanton murder"of Israeli farmers. ++ ++ + Adm. Geo. W. Anderson, who was removed as Chief of Naval Operations after his disagreement with Secretary of Defense McNamara over the TFX fighter plane contract, was sworn in as Ambassador to Portugal Sept. 3. On Sept. 4, in a speech to the National Press Club in WASHINGTON, he deplored the lack of “trust between the civilian and military echelons" of the Defense Department, and criticized the tendency of civilian officials to “downgrade” the role of the military. ++ ++ + In WASHINGTON, Sept. 6, Sen. Barry Goldwater introduced areservation to the Test Ban Treaty which said that the treaty should become effective only after removal of all Soviet arms and military personnel from Cuba. His reservation was attacked by both Republican and Democratic supporters of the treaty as not germane and liable to kill the treaty. Opposition to the treaty was announced by Sen. Russell, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee and of the Military Appropriations Subcommittee, ~. Eastland of Mississippi, and Gen. Thos, Power of the Strategic Air Command, the only active military leader to oppose ratification. On Sept. 9, when the Senate debate on the treaty opened, minoty leader Everett Dirkson gave his unqualified supportto the treaty. ++ t+ + The opening of school last week brought integration with little or no disturbance to 144 school districts in 11 southern and border states. ALABAMA was an exception. There Gov, Wallace again sought to defy the Federal Government. Early in the week he sent state troopers to prevent schools from opening in Tuskegee, Birmingham, Huntsville and Mobile. In Birmingham there was rioting by segregationists and Negoes. Two Negro homes were bombed and one Negro killed. In Huntsville, the governor met resistance from the Board of Education and from parents. On Sept. 9, Gov. Wallace changed his tactics, allowing the schools in Birmingham, Mobile and Tuskegee to open, but barring the entrance of Negroes, He did not send troopers to Huntsville, where desegregation took place quietly. Early Sept. 10, the governor replaced state troopers in Birmingham, Mobile and Tuskegee with National Guard units, Pres. Kennedy, stating that the governor purposely forced him to intervene, issueda “cease and desist” ‘order, federalized the National Guard units; and accomplished ‘Red Carpet On Broad St. The red carpet will be out for visitors to Nevada City as soon as local Business and Professional Women can "find some fellows to help us, " The organization received approval from the Nevada City Council Tuesday night for their plan to paint a six foot red carpet up Broad St. from the Plaza bridge “as far as the paint lasts” (providing the carpet doesn't extend beyond Union Alley). The promotion, tied into’an annual Fall Conference of Capital District BPW scheduled for Sept. 28 and 29, will be used to welcome all visitors to the city. The six foot wide carpet of paint was a compromise. The BPW delegation to the council requested permission to paint one whole side of the street, But Mayor Robert Carr felt that a red carpet should be only three or four feet wide---like they roll out for mayors when they arrive at the Palm Springs Airport. The idea of a carpet itself drew a warning from City Attorney William Wetherall that if it were to cause an accident, the city would be liable. ; Council members were more concerned with the width and placement of the paint. Fora while Mayor Carr objected to the carpet being in the uphill lane of Broad St. Some people will want to get on the carpet even if it means their going down Broad St. on the wrong side, he warned. “Do yoy really believe that?" asked Councilman Jack Brickell. "Yes, Jack, I've lived here quite a while, “ the mayor answered, But the Fuller-donated paint will be in the middle of the uphill lane, six feet wide, and it will be red, integration of the schools. +e tt t+ Reports of intrigue and maneuvers inSOUTH VIETNAM grew increasingly confusing last week: .

Brickell is charged with fraudulently collecting more than $200 in disability insurance claims from the State Compensation Fund and from the Maryland Casualty Insurance Company. Say Local . Governments : Shirk Duty The failure of local government in the battle to preserve California's lands and scenery was described today as “profound, and much more extensive in its effect onthe quality of life in the state than any failure of state government. " The evaluation was contained in a wide-ranging report, entitled “The Phantom Cities of California" issued at Sacramento today by California Tomorrow, the nonprofit research organization which last year attracted much attention andcomment with its findings on the erosion of the state's natural resources entitled "California Going, Going.” The group's current study was written by the authors of the previous report, Alfred E. Heller, Nevada County Nugget publisher and chairman of the Board of California Tomorrow, and Samuel E. Wood of Sacramento, executive director of the organization. In a foreword to the report the authors noted their previous emphasis onthe lack of state government responsibility for the preservation of California's “supremely attractive resources of land, air and water," and added: "This report views from the other side of the telescope the physical problems besetting the land of California. "Everybody is in favor of saving as much as possible of California's unique asset, its beautiful, varied and productive land and landscape. And almost everybody despises, not the growth of the state and the development of the land, which are inevitable, but irresponsible land development policies and practices. Yet in Our cities and counties there is an appalling gap between our preferences and our accomplishments, " One of the reasons for this gap, according to the report, is that the separate city and county governments cannot meet problems which are regional in nature, such as loss of open space and spread ofthe “slurbs," the deterioration of downtown centers, the crowding of roads, and the pollution of air, water:and landscape, because their jurisdictions and interests do not extend far enough. The authors comment: “This vacuum of authority is mute but forceful testimony in favor of the devising of a formula for the establishment of a political jurisdiction for the regional city, through which the public can look squarely at regional problems: a government that will assume retional or area-wide responsibilities which are not now being assumed by the cities and counties." The report cites examples from throughout the state in support of its major thesis that local government's record in preserving natural resources--the “local battle Z aBed** E96T ‘ZI Jaquioideg***1088nN ou **z a8eg for beauty"--addsup to a succes— sion of “small efforts and big _ failures."
