Speech Highlights WASHINGTON, Sept. 3Q op Here are highlights of President Kennedy's 8-mlnute talk to the nation tonight on the racial crisis at the University of Mississippi: Arrival of Negro James Meredith "The orders of the court In the case of Meredith vs. Fair (Charles Dickson Fair, member of the University of Mississippi board of trustees) are beginning to be, carried out. Mr. James Meredith Is now in residence on the campus all students it Is to be hoped, can now return to their normal activities Respect for law "For our nation Is founded on the principle that observance of the law Is the eternal safeguard of liberty and defiance of the law Is the surest path to tyranny Americans are free, In short, to disagree with the law but not to disobey It" Police powers, national and state "Even though this government had not originally been a party to this case, my responsibility as President was therefore Inescapable.

My obligation, under the Constitution and the statutes of the United States, was and Is to Implement the orders of the court with whatever means were necessary, and with as little force and civil disorder as the circumstances permit. It was for this reason that I federalized the Mississippi National Guard as the most appropriate instrument should any be needed I deeply regret the fact that any action by the executive branch was necessary In this case Had the police powers of Mississippi been used to support the orders of the court a peaceable and sensible solution would have been possible without any Federal Intervention." Appeal to students "You have a great tradition to uphold, i tradition of honor and courage, won on the field of battle and on the gridiron as well as the university campus. You have a new opportunity to show that you are men of patriotism and Integrity The eyes of the nation and all the world are upon you and upon all of us, and the honor of your university and state are In the balance There Is, In short, no reason why the books on this case cannot now be quickly and quietly closed in the manner directed by the court." moves," according to a man on the scene and quelled the mob action In a matter of minutes. The violence erupted at the very moment President Kennedy was speaking to the nation urging a peaceful settlement of the Federal-state dispute over racial segregation. And it came just a few minutes after Gov.

Ross Barnett indirectly admitted defeat in a statement Issued at the Governor's Mansion in Jackson. It appeared Mr. Meredith would be enrolled tomorrow. The mob of students most of them returning only today from an off-campus football game grew steadily as the word spread In late afternoon that U. 8.

marshals had ringed the administration building. BY EARLY tonight when Mr. Meredith arrived, the President spoke, and the governor issued his statement an estimated 2500 students were standing around, some Jeering, some Joking, some Just watching. Then they got rowdy. They jumped a news photographer and smashed his camera.

They threw rocks and soft drink bottles and flipped lighted cigarettes all in the direction of the marshals. They attacked a car with out-of-state license plates, smashed the windows and sent a man and woman fleeing. Then they turned on one of the army trucks stand ing by part of the marshals' convoy and took the cap off the auxiliary gasoline tank and threw a piece of flaming newspaper at the rising fumes. Their attempt to set the truck afire didn't work, but It triggered the marshals to action. THEY DONNED gas masks and started firing tear gas pellets first at the students they thought looked most like the leaders, then at everybody in sight "They're shooting at anything that moves," said a newsman, Van SaveU of the Associated press.

Tear gas fogged up much of the campus, sending students running away with handkerchiefs over their faces. And the rowdy students scattered. The 64-year-old governor, sworn to preserve segregation at Ole Miss or go to jail, said In a statement from the Governor's Mansion In Jackson: "I know that we are now completely surrounded by armed forces and that wt are physically overpowered." And, In fact, the Federal government truly did appear to be standing ready to surround and overpower the state of Mississippi. Aside from the nearly 300 marshals who paved the way for Mr. Meredith on the campus, more than 5000 Federal troops stood, under orders to fight If necessary.

At the State Capitol while the governor was making his statement, university officials were announcing that Mr. Meredith, 29, an Air Force veteran and father of one, had been assigned an apartment on the campus. He was not enrolled as a student the eventual objective of the courtroom battle that boiled Into the nation's biggest Federal vs. state crisis since the Civil War. But university officials added the reason they re fused to enroll him was because today was "the Sabbath." The governor's, admls- ernor, was among the estimated 10,000 National Guardsmen called into Federal service today In the University of Mississippi desegregation battle.

Governor Barnett had ordered defiance of a Federal court order to enroll James wt ,1. t. ii. mrrruiin, a negro, in the university, touching off a legal battle and show of physical force between the state and Federal governments. Neither the coventor nor his son commented on young Barnett's federaliza- linn smmmmimmitmismmam slon of the futility of his position, and the university's acceptance of Mr.

the campus came only minutes before President Kennedy's speech to the nation on the conflict. MR. MEREDITH, a soft- spoken and sllghtly-bullt native of Kosciusko, arrived at the Oxford airport In a small green border patrol plane about sundown. He went to the campus in a car. Only a short time before, the small airport at this north Mississippi college town roarea wun me arrival of almost 150 Federal marshals in transport planes from Memphis.

The airborne marshals, along with other Federal marshals, darted through a gate to the campus ap- parently with no show of resistance by Mississippi highway patrolmen who earlier had blocked the gates. Heading for the administration building, where the registrar onice is locatea. tne marshals now 268 strong lined up shoulder to shoulder, faces outward, around the red brick building. The chancellor of the university, J. D.

Williams was In the lead car of the caravan of marshals that sped through the entrance. A lone Mississippi state trooper, standing at the gate, watched the convoy drive through. The convoy consisted of five army trucks and about three cars filled with personsIncluding Col. T. Blrdsong, head of the Mis- sissippl State Highway Patrol.

The marshals, wearing -orange vests holding tear-gas cartridges and tear-gas grenades, came straight from the Oxford airport tp the "Ole Miss campus. The move apparently caught state officials off guard. Earlier, other trucks carrying the marshals, had gone from the airport to an encampment area 18 miles from Oxford. THE MARSHALS had been gathering in growing force In Memphis since late last week. An air shuttle, service brought them Into Oxford during the day.

Army troops from Ft. Campbell already had ar rived at Oxford to set up logistic support for the marshals. Battalions of military police from Ft Dlx, N. and Ft. Bragg, N.

and troops from Ft Ben-nlng, Ga. either were in Memphis or en route to Oxford. AT MIDDAY, highway patrolmen at the mansion gave newsmen a statement In which Mr. Barnett said he did not plan any act thnt would "further disrupt" the university.

"It is quite clear," he contiued, "that the moderates and conservatives throughout the hemisphere losing their complac-.

He said also that the Castro regime "has been losing the sympathy of what might be called the democratic left" Next Tuesday Mr. Rusk will meet with foreign ministers or other top representatives of 19 other West-em Hemisphere countries to talk about possible future moves on Cuba. Cool Air Seeps Into Midwest, Setting Off Rain By Associated Press Cool air infiltrated the nation's mid-section yesterday and set off showers and thunderstorms from Minnesota to Oklahoma, with the heaviest rainfall hitting Missouri.

Detective Selter said he visited the other four establishments yesterday, all drugstores, and found only medical and essential sales transacted.

"I would hope, he continued, "that what is necessarily a national problem into alleged partisan points of view, because I feel and know that the leadership of both parties Is deeply concernedconcerned that no satisfactory answer has yet been found and that the penetration of this hemisphere by Castro Communism is something which cannot be accepted in the hemisphere and by the United States." BUT THE SECRETARY made clear his belief that Invasion or other drastic military action is not the answer. "It Is clear," Mr. Rusk said, "that the power of the United States Is such that you could put armed forces ashore In Cuba, but that means a lot of casualties and It means a lot of Cuban casualties it means bloodshed, And If we could find an answer without that, we should try to do so." When the question was suggested that the United States was losing prestige crush Communism In Cuba, becaujee of a failure to Mr. Rusk said he thinks that is really a question of solidarity among the nations of the Western Hemisphere and that "general world opinion Is much less Interested In Cuba than we are." HE SAID it Is true that Communists are becoming WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 (jp) Secretary of State Dean Rusk ruled out tonight any possibility of a U.

deal to end Russian Intervention in Cuba for Western concessions on Berlin or on American bases abroad. "You cannot support freedom in one place by surrendering freedom in another," Mr. Rusk said in a pre-recorded television interview. "In any event, we have special commitments here In this hemisphere under our hemisphere charters, and we cannot connect In negotiations or in a the problem of Cuba with the defense of freedom In other places." HIS REMARKS were made in response to a question about some possible U. deal There has been speculation In congressional and diplomatic quarters here and In New York that the Soviet government might try to use Its position in Cuba to pry U.

S. concessions on West Berlin. Mr. Rusk made also what amounted to an appeal to keep the Cuban problem out. of partisan political debate during the fall congressional election though he said that "vigorous debate (on the Storm Daisy Grows Bigger SAN JUAN.
