House Shift Plan Okay Seen RALEIGH (AP) A top state official said today he is confident the U.S. Justice Department will approve the reapportionment of the North Carolina House of Representatives which the General Assembly completed last week. "Based on what the Justice Department usually looks for, we can find no reason for them to reject the reapportionment in the recent Alex Brock, executive secretary of the State Board of Elections." "The reason for that conclusion is there are no discernable areas that have been shifted in what could be interpreted as an overt act to discriminate against minority groups," Brock continued. Brock pointed out that only 39 North Carolina counties are covered by provisions of the federal voting rights act, which empowers the Justice Department to approve such matters as legislative and congressional redistricting.

state elections chief said the congressional redistricting plan enacted by the General Assembly about a month ago still is before the Justice Department, and he said he expects that to be approved, too. Brock said that in his contacts with the Justice Department "there have been no major questions raised up to this point" about the congressional redistricting plan. Brock said that whether the legislative and congressional redistricting proposals would stand up in the courts is "another matter" because "no one can give an intelligent appraisal of what's going to happen in federal court." last Wednesday's White House conference, has accused the Nixon administration of infusing politics into the issue of police safety. Murphy, a Democrat, was left off the list by Hoover. The White House meeting and the current.

sessions were ordered by Nixon in the wake of killings of two officers in Washington and two in New York. According to statistics on police deaths compiled by the International Association of Chiefs of Police under a Justice Department grant, 52 officers have fallen in the line of duty since Jan. 1. The total for the full 11 months since the began is 100, the IACP says. most count, of the deaths occurred while the officers were responding to calls or making arrests, at least 20 are attributed by the IACP to ambushes.

On the agenda for the working sessions are discussions of the types of persons convicted of killing law-enforcement officers. According to FBI statistics for prior years, most such persons have records of previous arrests for violent crimes. Also scheduled are lectures to by FBI and Justice Department officials on plans and tactics of terrorist and extremist groups, technical information on explosives, financial assistance available from the federal government and ways of training policemen to improve their safety. Despite pleas for help, Mitchell and Hoover have pointed out federal jurisdiction is limited and have restated the administration's opposition to legislation to make killing a policeman a federal crime. But with the number of to deaths rising -the total for calendar year 1970 is expected to be 100 as opposed to 86 in 1969-the administration has announced its support of a proposal to pay $50,000 grants to survivors of officers killed in the line of duty.

12-Ounce Pig Survives Due To Special Feeding Device Lewis Crabtree, Durham County assistant agricultural extension agent, said today that "Super a pig which weighed only 12 ounces at birth, is alive and well thanks to an automatic feeding device developed by Dr. James Lecce, biochemist at North Carolina State University. Lecce and his associate, Dr. James Coalson, believe the pig is perhaps the smallest ever raised successfully by either natural or artificial means. Coalson said the experiment lends "further proof" that the feeding device has a "tremendous potential" for use in saving pigs that otherwise would not survive.

He said he and his associate believe that if this threequarter -pound pig can be raised successfully in the device, then virtually any pig can. Super Runt, son of an adolescent mother, was placed in the automatic feeder at birth, along with his eight littermates. His weight at that time was just over 12 ounces, the scientists said. After two weeks of automatic hourly feeding, the pig weighed 3.4 pounds. They added that a littermate that weighed only 1.3 pounds at birth had grown to 5.5 pounds after two weeks in the new machine.

"It is unlikely that either of these pigs would have survived had they had to compete for their mother's milk," Dr. Coalson commented. He noted that about one out of every four pigs born on U.S. farms doesn't survive. The reason in most cases, he said, is that the smallest or weakest in the litter can't compete successfully for the limited milk the sow provides.

The of Super Runt and his siblings was another part of the experiment conducted by Lecce, Coalson and NCSU reproductive physiologist Dr. L. C. Ulberg. She was one of several females bred at an unusually early age 165 days as opposed to the more conventional 240 days of age.

Ulberg explained that one purpose of experimental early breeding is to investigate its possible use on the farm to get home Monday night from 7 until 9 p.m. SERVICE BY HUDSON Hudson FUNERAL HOME Service Since 1919 1800 Angier Ave. Phone 596-8269 RIGSBEE-Mrs. Sarah O'Mary Rigsbee, 98, of 3728 Chapel Hill Road, died Sunday night at 7:30 p.m. at the home of her daughter, Mrs.

PW's Wife Finds Secret Message In Hanoi Propaganda Broadcast By MORRIS SHELTON ATLANTA, Ga. (AP) The petite young mother, who has traveled to three foreign countries trying to learn of her POW husband's condition, anxiously groped for a "secret message" as she pored over the anti-war statement which Radio Hanois claimed her husband had made.

She found it in the final paragraph of the lengthy statement, which urges Vietnam veterans to protest the war. Valerie Kushner of Danville, wife of Capt. Floyd Harold Kushner, believes the statement contained a hidden personal message confirming that Capt. Kushner has learned that the couple's second child--born after Kushner was capturedwas a son. "He wanted a boy," recalled Mrs.

Kushner, who was interviewed while visiting relatives in Atlanta when her husband's statement was broadcast Friday. Kushner, an Army doctor, was captured in a helicopter crash in 1967. "The other part of the statement just doesn't sound like him," said Mrs. Kushner. "It wouldn't be like him to condemn our country.

Some portions of it sounded like ard propaganda lines." Railroads Lose Appeal On Selection JamsCan't Curb Strikes By BARRY SCHWEID WASHINGTON (AP) The Supreme Court declined today to review a ruling that permits the United Transportation Union to call selective strikes against individual railroads. The court turned down an appeal by 169 railroads, most of the Class I carriers in the nation, from the ruling, given March 31 by the U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Columbia. The railroads had argued through their attorneys that the Railway Labor Act prohibits selective or whipsaw strikes by a union engaged in collective bargaining with a national railway association. The circuit court disagreed.

A three panel said the union had the right to strike provided it continued to bar- Smooth Shift In Farming Policy Seen MOBILE, Ala. (AP) Administration policies to improve farm income by returning decision making powers to farmers are being implemented smoothly, Undersecretary of Agriculture Phil Campbell said today. The former Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture made the comment in a talk to the convention of the Southern Association of State Departments of Agriculture. He said American agriculture was moving into a supply and demand situation, "beneficial to the well-being of the producers of most farm commodities." Campbell said the only major surplus now is in wheat, and that is not as great as it was two years ago. Cotton is in tight supply and soybeans are barely keeping pace with demands, he said.

Palefaces Get Warning MAXTON, N.C. (AP) A note attached to an improvised, feathered spear found at the scene of a burned railroad trestle near Maxton read: "If you palefaces don't get the Indians from under you, you are going to get more of red power." A spokesman for the Seaboard Coastline Railroad said Saturday the spear, which was a stick with a butcher knife blade on one end and a feather on the other, was similar to one found about a year ago at the burned ruins of a Maxton house. Many Lumbee Indians live in the Maxton area of eastern North Carolina, but there was no indication of the significance of the message. The trestle fire caused damage to 25 feet of the structure. Permanent repairs were expected to be complete early this week, but traffic was restored to the line hours after the blaze.

(AP) A North Carolina eye surgeon said Sunday, Gov. Bob Scott has weakened the state's Commission for the Blind by using his appointive powers to settle political debts. That charge came from Dr. Gene Grace of Durham, director of the department of opthalmology at Watts Hospital. Grace made the remark in a resolution passed Sunday at the convention of the North Carolina Lions Club.

The resolution urges the governor to concentrate the state's resources for eye care for poor people through the Commission for the Blind. Scott was asked to channel all available funds from state and federal sources into the Commission for the Blind and its mobile clinics that serve the poor around the state. In making the resolution, Dr. Grace said Scott has weakened the Commission for the Blind "at the expense of the taxpaying Sunday's gathering at Rocky Mount was the final session of a two-day Lions convention.

He said hormones were given the young females.

Breeding at about 165 days of age, rather than at the normal breeding age of eight months, would cut about 75 days off the feeding period. That could mean a savings of about $15 per pig in feed costs alone for the farmer. The theoretical program that the NCSU researchers are working on, according Coalson, would possibly lead to a revolutionary change in hog production. An account of how the program would work, as told to Crabtree by the scientists, is as follows: Pigs on their way to market could be bred early to have litters when the mothers are about 280 days of age. The females go on to market with the farmer, absorbing little or no market discount because of excess animal weight.

The pigs would be placed in an automatic feeder for two weeks with an expected survival of nearly 100 per cent. Following two weeks in a feeder, the pigs would be moved to a preweaning program. This is the phase of the over-all system the researchers are working on now. If the females are to be held back for rebreeding, the experimenters said, they could be bred within two weeks after a litter is born. This kind of schedule would produce three litters a year from the female, rather than two.

In a hog operation that is now weaning an eight-pig average per sow, two litters a year or a total of 16 pigs, the researchers believe a system they visualize could increase the weaned average to perhaps 12 or more pigs per sow, three litters a year or 36 pigs. Coalson said the program is close to becoming reality. He said the automatic feeder is being perfected so that soon it can be adapated to on-farm use. One day recently, the testing devices reported that the air in New York was "good. We sympathize with those residents who were out of town and missed it.

Hall-Nunne, funeral Brome BY NATIONAL MINITATION SELECTED MEMBER MORTICIANS gain in good faith. This was the first time an appeals court had authorized a selective strike in a national rail bargaining situation. The circuit court barred a strike to give the railroads a chance to have the Supreme Court decide by the end of the current term whether it would review the situation. The high court said only that Justice Potter Stewart dissented from the refusal to grant the petition for a hearing. Last March 10, U.S.

District Judge John H. Pratt had blocked the United Transportation an Union from going ahead with threatened strike against the Burlington Northern and the Seaboard Coast lines. The railroad negotiators agreed last year to proposals by a presidential emergency board that would increase wages by more than 37 per cent by the end of next year and permit railroads to alter a number of restrictive work rules. The union negotiators approved the wage hike but opposed the changes in rules. In appealing, the railroads said the industry is in "dire financial straits." As a whole, it earned only 1.7 per cent of its net worth in 1970, compared with about 10 per cent for all industry groups.

"Since labor costs already amount on the average to more than 50 per cent of all railroad operating expenses, a decision that tilts the balance of power even further in favor of labor in railway labor disputes obviously is a matter of the utmost concern," the appeal said. If selective strikes are permitted, the appeal said, a rail union could force individual carriers to agree to unreasonable terms. Highway Bloodshed RALEIGH (AP) Here is the Motor Vehicle Department's report of highway deaths and injuries for the 24 hours ending midnight Sunday. Killed-1. Injured (rural) -5.

Killed this year-675. Killed to date last year-651. Injured to April 1, Injured to April 1, But one portion of the statement immediately caught her attention. It read: "It is my fervent wish that your goals will be achieved with deliberate speed, that aspirations of Americans and Vietnamese alike will soon be met, that our GIs can return to their homes and families and our beloved America can return to its rightful place in the sun." The reference expressing hope the U.S. could return to "place in the sun," she believes, was her husband's acknowledgment that somehow he has received her attempts to notify him that his new child is a boy.

Mrs. Kushner recalled that although her husband was captured before the birth of their second child, 3-year-old Louis Michael, "he told me the moment he learned I was pregnant that this one would be a boy." The Kushner's also have a 7- year -old daughter, Toni Jean. Mrs. Kushner's attempts to communicate with her husband have been endless. In addition to frequently mailing packages and letters, she flew to Southeast Asia in November, 1969, at her own expense to present the National Liberation Front Embassy in Cambodia with a 17-pound package of medical supplies.

That after three men were released from her husband's prison camp and related the deplorable conditions in it. From them, she learned that her husband "was doing gery with old razor blades, without anesthesia and no antibiotics." She said the Communist diplomats were "very courteous but absolutely would not accept medical supplies." In December of 1969, she and her daughter flew to Paris on Christmas Day with the delegation of Texas millionaire Ross Perot, who formed the "United We Stand" organization seeking better treatment of U.S. war prisoners. In May of this year, Mrs. Kushner and two other wives of captured American servicemen journeyed to Budapest to plead with representatives of Hanoi and the New Left for humane treatment of U.S.

prisoners. One routine item that has been included in each package of medical supplies is a pair of glasses for her husband. She learned from returning POWs that his glasses were broken in the helicopter crash. "He has very poor vision, and we've been mailing packages of glasses since he was first captured." So far, all packages have been rejected. "We just keep sending them and Mrs.

Kushner was asked what would be the most important thing she would tell her husband if she could get a message through to him. She replied, "If I had a choice, I would send a package rather than a letter. I would like to make sure that he's getting, needs, the not medical his supplies health he only for but for that of the other men in the camp." Grandfather Of 5 Gets His Degree After 8-Year Bid By R.
