New Moves In Mississippi Seven more Freedom Riders" headed for Jackson. by bus today and others planned new moves by air to test Mississippi segregation laws despite threats of stiffer punishment.

Five white persons and two Negroes left New Orleans by bus at 6:25 a.m. today and were due in Jackson about noon. Newell Weber of East Orange. N.J.. spokesman for the group, said they expected to be arrested in Jackson and would serve out their fines in the city or county jail.

Thirteen more riders were convicted in Jackson Monday raising the total to 65 since the first wave arrived May 24. None has been charged with violating segregation laws. All were fined $200 and given 60-day suspended sentences on breach of peace charges. The maximum lenalty on that charge is a $200 fine and four months in jail.

Talk Of Communism "The city and state have done all they can to uphold the laws since these so-called riders have come to Mississippi." Travis said.
