Over Challenges
A study group, formed a week to investigate possible ways of providing parking Chapman Avenue, was so sued to meet today at 3:00 p.m. in Civic Center.
It was the latest development in a controversy that...
An Orange doctor held out hopes to the very end that the life of his elder brother would spared by the Congolese rebels. But hope and prayer evidently were not enough. Associates of Dr. Dwight Carlson, 31, 101 S. Manches-sel, said the Orange County General Hospital intern said he believed to the very end that Dr. Paul Carlson would survive despite the threats of captors in Stanleyville." The associates of the intern had received confirmation his brother's death through wire service report this morning. The doctor or his wife were available for comment. The wire service reported the U.S. Embassy in Kolowdville as saying that Dr. Paul Carlson, 38, was among white hostages cut down by rebel rifle fire at Lumumba Square in Stanleyville shortly before the Belgian paratroopers arrived from the airfield.
Denies Charges
Earlier this month in an interview, Dr. Dwight Carlson said his brother was innocent of the charges of spying levelled against him by the Communist rebels.
The paratroopers, carried by U.S. planes, landed at Stanleyville at dawn in an attempt to rescue Dr. Carlson and more than 1,000 American and other white hostages.
Officials said reports from the Congo showed there was little resistance to the start of the operation and only minor casualties.
The first Belgian paratroopers jumped to the airfield at Stanleyville and cleared the field so that planes could land with the rest. Probably a total of about 600 troopers were said to be involved. They were carried by 12 U.S. C130 transport planes.
The United Nations was informed of the operation, State Department officials said. And they said the rescue was authorized in advance by the Congo government at Leopoldville. The State Department released a letter of authorization from Premier Moise Tshombe to U.S. Ambassador G. McMurtrie Godley.
A State Department compilation showed there are 29 Americans in Stanleyville and 30 elsewhere in the rebel-held Congo — a total of 59.
In addition, other hostages, including men, women and children of half a dozen or more European countries and from India and Pakistan gave a total of 1,140 foreigners in Stanleyville. With 473 people elsewhere in rebel territory the total was 1,613.
The State Department nouncement was made before 2 a.m. EST. O'Connor said the first plane was the "drop area" about
Minimum Wage in Agriculture
Would Add to Many Problems
The establishment of minimum wage rates for agricultural workers in California would only tend to create a big gap in the labor market. This was the opinion expressed Friday by Cecil Marks of the Orange County Farm Bureau in interview dealing with Gov.mund G. Brown's proposal increasing farm wages.
Job Loss Cited
Marks said the establishment such rates would result in loss of jobs for younger-informed workers and would be the same effect on elderly workers who would not be able keep pace with their younger interparts.
Marks also have a serious act on the marketing of the state's agricultural products in parts of the nation, Marks.
If there are going to be minimum wage rates — they should be standard throughout nation," Marks added.
Marks' statement backed up earlier remarks made by Herb of the California - Arizona farmers Farm Labor Commitment.
Lee charged that Brown's proposal discriminated against local growers.
"Of course, we are pleased that Governor Brown recognizes that foreign contract workers are needed to supplement California's 252,000 temporary hired farm work force at peak harvests, and is supporting the implementation of Public Law 414. During last year's September peak we required 54,000 Mexican nationals, in addition to the domestics," Lee said.
"However, the Governor's announced formula for increasing minimum farm wages would widen the disparity which already exists between California and competing crop states," he added.
"For example," said Lee.
"The minimum wage set by the Secretary of Labor for those hiring braceros is 70 cents per hour in Texas as compared with $100 in California. Under the percentage formula proposed by the Governor, at the end of five years the minimum in Texas would be $1.19 per hour as against $1.70 in California."
Thus, the disparity between Texas and California would increase from 30 cents per hour today to 51 cents in five years."
Lee said this would be a sure formula for pricing California grown products out of the markets. "Our growers simply couldn't compete against growers with such a great advantage in wage costs," he added.
Present System Lauded
Lee said the principal source of difference lies not with the dollar minimum "because the piece rate incentive system prevalent in California returns well above that," but with the percentage increase system which "serves to increase the competitive disadvantage which already exists."
Lee's comments were in response to Brown's proposal that Mexican nationals continue to be imported under Public Law 414 (the Immigration and Naturalization Act) after Public Law 88 (the bracerow law) expires on December 31 — under a gradual five-year phase-out, tied in with increased wages for all farm workers.
Study Group Convenes on Rift Over Chapman Parking Problem
A study group, formed last week to investigate possible use of providing parking on Chapman Avenue, was scheduled to meet today at 3:00 p.m. Civic Center.
The latest development a controversy that was sparked when the State Highway Commission posted "No Parking" signs along the avenue since it is a state highway.
The study group, is made up of Councilmen Lawrence Jordan and Roy Parks along with triods. And that this is all that is actually necessary.

The study group, is made up of Councilmen Lawrence Jordan and Rex Parks along with Traffic Engineer Ernie Dennis.
In another development, Chamber of Commerce man-ger John Snettsinger announced that he had consulted with the chamber's executive committee and had been instructed to address a letter to the City Council again emphasizing the position the chamber took in a later dated Dec. 3, 1962.
The letter asked that off-street parking be provided at proper intervals if parking was removed from Chapman Avenue.
Snettsinger said the chamber will recommend that the council give serious consideration to a request from Chapman Avenue merchants asking for limited parking from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. until the issue can be satisfactorily settled.
A group of merchants, called the Committee for Improved Parking, planned to protest the "no parking" regulation at tomorrow night's meeting of the council.
Gabriel Black, spokesman matter of traffic flow versus for the committee said, "it's a business survival."
40 businessmen have already given their signatures to petition to the City Council that the hours of no parking be changed.
Black and his group claim that these are the peak peaks. And that this is all that is actually necessary.
Gene White, mayor pre tem, said that, "a small group could solve the problem faster than this demonstration at the Council chambers Tuesday night."
The entire battle would be over if the state came in to stripe the street today or Tuesday.
