In the Cyprus crisis, the United Nations Security Council voted unanimously last week to have Secretary-General U Thant set up a Cyprus peace force and to name a mediator to seek peace in the island republic. The Soviet Union cleared the way for the solid vote when it announced it would support the plan despite strong reservations on the provisions for the creation and control of the force.
In Athens, Greek anti-American demonstrators burned an effigy of President Johnson as rioting over the Cyprus issue erupted. The demonstrators claimed the U.S. is following a pro-Turkish line in attempts to settle strife on Cyprus. Shouts of "Johnson—Al Capone," and "Bravo Russia" were heard in Athens.
The Grecians received a severe blow later in the week, however, when King Paul died six days after he was stricken by complications from a stomach operation. He was succeeded by his 23-year-old son Constantine. Paul ascended the throne in the spring of 1947 after the death of his brother, George II.

IN DALLAS, the trial of Jack Ruby took on added excitement Friday when seven convicts escaped in the Dallas County Courthouse. One of the convicts threatened a Ruby witness with a fake gun. In more conventional action in the case, the final juror was picked to hear the murder trial after a substitute judge entered the case when Judge Joe B. Brown became ill. A Dallas policeman testified that shortly after Ruby shot Lee Harvey Oswald, he told officers, "Somenoe had to do it. You guys (the Dallas police couldn't do it."
Ruby Trial
Another police officer testified that Ruby told him he thought of killing Oswald the night after the President was assassinated and two days before Oswald was shot.
Letter from an Anxious Bircher Mr. Tom Coffman:
The People Say...
Your editorial combining "Rockwell-Bircher-OpcenSKY" is very typical of past performance, and it does not disturb me considering the source. I would simply ask, however, that you let someone with a persuasion other than your own write editorials to balance this tax-supported institution, at least for the sake of looking fair. Odds of ten to one are a normal experience for those of us attempting to understand the problems facing this country and correlate them with historical facts, which should make our present course apparent to anyone.
IN ANOTHER TRIAL, Jimmy Hoffa, Teamsters' president, was convicted of trying to fix a federal court jury. He will be sentenced this week. He faces a maximum of 10 years in prison and $10,000 in fines.
In Congress, the controversial farm bill passed the Senate. The administration-backed bill now will go to the House. It looms as important campaign material in the country's agricultural regions.
The Senate is preparing for the debate on the civil rights bill for this week. Speculation still exists as to whether enough support exists to limit debate on the bill and avert a possible southern filibuster.

You conveniently tie Communists, fascists and conservatives together, although I did not expect anything else from a liberal who preaches fair play. How about inviting some conservatives to write for the "Kansan"? It would be interesting to contemplate the reaction with such a move.

In Louisiana last week, a Republican who is an ardent supporter of Sen. Barry Goldwater provided the strongest Republican challenge in the state in nearly 100 years, but lost to Democrat John J. McKeithen. This election was seen as doubly dismal for the national Democrats because McKeithen beat a strong Kennedy administration man, DeLesseps S. Morrison, in the Democratic primary.
