In 1960, non-white employ ment in the textile industry was 3.3 per cent while the all manufacturing percentage was 7.6 Textiles and all-manufac turing now stand at 10.6 and 10 per cent respectively. The figures show that the textile industry in 1969 has some 105,000 non-white work ers compared with 94,000 in 1968 or a gain of 11,000 non white jobs among the 993,000 people currently employed by the textile industry in 42 states.

The apparel industry em ploys »me 192,000 non-white workers among its 1,435,000 employees. Mansfield: War May Fade Out WASHINGTON - Sen. Mike Mansfield said Sunday that lack of progress in the Par is peace talks could mean that the Vietnam fighting will grad ually fade away without any for mal agreement to end the war. The Senate Democratic leader from Montana said that unless Hanoi ceases its intransigence, he foresees the possibility that there may never be any nego tiated cease-fire. He said be is certain that if there had been any real pro- E ess in the Paris talks, it would ve been reported to congres sional leaders and he has re ceived no such reports. "It seems to me that if the stalemate continues, President Nixon will have two choices," the Democratic leader said in an interview. "He either can step up the war or he can order a gradual pullout of American troops, as the process of strengthening the South Viet namese army goes ahead. "From what I know of the sit uation, the President is not going to intensify the American military effort unilaterally." Mansfield noted that Henry Cabot Lodge, chief U.S. negotia tor in Paris, had suggested when be was ambassador to Sai gon that the war might Just fade away without a settlement. Mansfield said the current rel ative lull in the fighting could be interpreted as the beginning of such a process. He said he is in formed that there has been no significant infiltration of the South from the North in almost four months. He conceded nobody on this side knows exactly what this means. Former Secretary of State Dean Rusk also suggested Sun day there may be a "withering away" of the war and said he thinks there is about a 50 per cent chance that it will end that way. Rusk said it is too early to de termine whether the present lull in the fighting is of any signifi cance in this cor .lection. "Wt> ve had other lulls in the past that were succeeded by in tensive activity. I don't know if the present hill is part of the process of withering away. I would hope it is." Rusk was interviewed on the ABC television-radio program "Issue: and Answers." Mansfield applauded Nixon's statement in Guam, at the be ginning of the President's world-circling trip, that Asian nations must provide more of their own defense and that the United States must avoid any more Vietnams. Mansfield noted that the trea ty commitments carry a clause saying that each signatory coun try will act as it sees fit under its own constitutional processes. That means, he said, that Con gress must be involved in any •ettoa in response to the treaty GENERAL RULES SUGGESTS SMART BUYING RULES Smart Buying Rules Take your time when you «hop. Look carefully at what you want to buy. Ask questions about it - cost? How long will it last? Always check the quality and price of what you to buy at more than one reliable store. Breakfast is an especially important meal for children. To get all the foods needed for them to grow strong and be healthy, they need three good meals every day. What kind of breakfasts do your children eat? Protein puts "staying" pow er into your breakfast so you don't get hungry before the noon meal. Some breakfast protein foods are eggs, sausage, milk, salmon, fish, cheese, and peanut butter. Food Buying Tip. The deep er the color of green (or yel low) of the vegetable, the greater its food value. When you select green vegetables, keep in mind dandelion greens, spinach, chard, turnip greens, kale, mustard greens, broccoli, and all the dark salad greens. Yellow Vegetables are es pecially rich in Vitamin A. This vitamin protects us against night blindness (or the inability to see in dim light of darkness after being in a bright light.) Sweet potatoes, carrots, win ter squash, pumpkin, apricots, and cantaloupe are all impor tant A foods. Do you leave garbage in your kitchen uncovered over night? And do you leave your food uncovered on the table or on the cabinet shelf? Roaches love to thrive in kitchens like this.

Helps Farm Workers Get Extra Jobs A North Carolina Employ ment Service Program to help farm labor crew leaders pur chase buses will enable an es timated 15,000 underemploy ed farm workers get extra days of work during the State's har vest season. The U. S. Department of Labor reports that farm labor service representatives of the State agency have assisted crew leaders fb finance and purchase about 225 vehicles for trans porting workers. With this add ed number of buses, farm labor ers are being moved quickly as corps ripen and jobs become available. The bus purchase program began in 1966 when a short age of interstate migratory farm workers inspired the plan to meet peak seasonal labor requirements in North Caro lina. The Federal-State employ ment service organized a 10- week training course to teach potential crew leaders basic ed ucation, record keeping, vehi cle maintenance, legal require ments, traffic laws and other subjects. Graduates were assist ed in obtaining low cost loans, purchasing buses, getting prop er insurance, recruiting crews of workers, and obtaining se ries of suitable jobs for their crews. In the first year of opera tion, crew leaders purchased 56 buses and nine trucks. They organized crews and furnished transportation and jobs for approximately 4,000 farm workers who otherwise would have been unemployed or un deremployed. As a result of that successful experience, the training and bus purchase pro ject was made a permanent program. This Spring the num ber of buses purchased by par ticipants passed the 226 mark. 13 Ministers, One Deacon Are Ordained BALTIMORE, Md. -Thir teen ministers and one deacon were ordained at the climax, of the 12th Annual Convo cation of the Bible Way Churches, Worldwide, here Sun day, at the First Apostolic Faith Church.

Czechoslovakia - Well-informed Eastern European sources report that the triumph of Apollo 11 and the unsatisfactory performance of the Soviet Luna is spacecraft has caused livelv controversy within the Kremlin leadership and strains throughout the Soviet bloc. The debate and recriminations are said to involve Leonid I. Brezhnev, secretary general of the Soviet Communist Party. Gloom and embarrassment over the landing of the United States astronauts on the moon and the apparent crash of the unmanned Luna IS craft on the lunar surface are said to have hung heavily over talks that Brezhnev conducted with Eastern Communist leaders in Warsaw last week. Brezhnev and the president of the Soviet Union, Nikolai V. Podgorny. conferred from Monday to Wednesday with Wladvslaw Gomulka, the Polish Communist Party head; Dr. Gustav Husak. first secretary of the Czechoslovak party; Premier Willi Stoph of East Germany and other high officials of those countires. The occasion was the 25th anniversary of Communist rule in Poland. The Communist leaders were said to have been disturbed by the enthusiastic reactions across Eastern Europe to the American space feat. This response, taken as indicative of lingering and latent sympathies for the United States and its way of life, was reported to have been strongest in the most, technologically ad vane d societies of the Soviet bloc East Germany and Czechoslovakia. Interest in the Apollo 11 mission and a good deal of Dopular gloating over the Luna 15 episode were noted also in Poland. Hungary and Romania. according to information available here. Officials in charge of the mass media in the Soviet bloc are understood to be worried that many newspaper writers, editors and broadcasters went out of their way to show goodwil toward the United States in connection with the Apollo 11 success. v There are reports of wrat is described as a discussion of national priorities within the Communist establishment in the Soviet Union that has been touched off by the lunar frustrations. A diplomat with long experience in East European affairs said: "All indications point to deep dissatisfaction of Soviet scientists and technocrata with the present party leaderstup, which is accused of being overlv obsessed with the threats from Peking, and of practicing bu'reaucratic conservatism in all other domains. Soviet space enthusiasts simply feel that Khrushchev gave stronger and more imaginative guidance." Nikita S. Khrushchev was in power when the Soviet Union launched its sputnik satellite in 1957 and later took the lead in manned space exploration. cffcSAVE THE CAN pOUi>7 AND KEEP I XJr/ AMERICA BEAUTIFUL DECORATING CANS There are many new differ ent, and unusual uses to which you can put empty Canada Dry cans simply by decorating them.

Parrish St., Durham, N. c. "WHERE YOU SAVE DOE! MAKE A DIFFERENCE" Slides Believed Detected By Instrument on Moon SPACE CENTER, Houston The seismic recorder left on the moon a week ago has reported 14 disturbances believed to be landslides which change the nature of lunar craters, officials said Sunday. "Beginning July 25, 14 unusual seismic events were recorded simultaneously," said Dr. Garry Latham, head of Apollo U's moonquake detection experiment. "The character of the seismic signals are similar to those which occur on the earth during landslides. The seismic events being observed art believed to be the first stsges by which fresh new craters are being transformed to old," he added. Latham said the moonslides occurred about the same time as lunar noon in the Sea of Tranquillity. He said the vibrations felt by the seismometer left by the Apollo 11 astroanuts were different from those which scientists earlier said they thought to be moonquakes. Latham also said the temperature of electrical components in the seismometer reached 45 to SO degrees higher than anticipated during the lunar noon which occurred at 5 a.m. EDT, but he believed the machine would continue to work. Temperature iccorderf show a surface temperature of 190 degrees during the moon noon. These temperatures will decrease for the next two weeks, he said. Rusk D Change in Asia Policy WASHINGTON , For mer Secretary of State Dean Rusk said Sunday he doubts that any Asian policy of the Nix on administration can differ greatly from that of former President Lyndon B.

Rusk gave his views on the ABC television program "Issues and Answers!" He said of the nations of Asia "If they are strong and prosper ous they can resist" aggression and subversion themselves. "I don't for myself at the mo ment see any new policy in that direction. REMOVE WARTS!

C Latham said he was not certain why the temperatures were going up inside the experiment package, but the increase probably is being caused by excessive heating of a radiator on the 25-pound package. The heat could have changed the chemical composition of the radiator. The heat could have been caused by the engine plume of the lunar module damaging the outside of the experiment so it could not radiate heat when the moon lander blasted GoßDotfi GIN "280 M VV4O «? 4 /SQT.TES IRFPINT ,IGORDONS| I W; ■ to ut MT orrtci \W Y DBTIUED WFL LONDON DRY UJ til/ I DISTItICO I 80MU0 1M THE USA IV 1 \|i/l If ■ IH( DISIIUfUS COKPANY.

Other possibilities, although considered more remote, are that the radiator is clogged with dust or that parts of the lunar module left on the moon are clogging the radiator. Dust detectors indicate no clogging problem, he said. Seismic signals registering as wiggles on a graph Wednesday reported a strong vibration which Latham said he believed was caused by a moonquake. If so, they would dispel the theory that the moon is a dead body.
