Cheers For M'Kay,
Chills For Flegel
In Verbal Duel
(By lb AMOcUUd PrMt
Governor Douglas McKsy nd
hit Democratic opponent, Austin
Flegel, pounded away at each other
today ai the (all political campaign
neared its climax in Oregon.
The two tangled in an unprece
dented session before the Portland
chamber of commerce here Mon
day. It was the first time the rivals
had appeared on the same plat
form It was a cool occasionally hos
tile audience for Flegel, but his
aplomb was unshaken. He had
sharp words for McKay's record
and McKay's aims.
McKay, warmed by cheers from
businessmen present, responded in
kind.
Flegel's principal criticism was
that the McKay administration had
done little to get more cheap elec
tricity for Oregon and more fav
orable freight rates. He asserted
the two were needed for Oregon's
industial growth.
McKay hotly replied he had done
everything possible short of sup
porting a CVA, which be said he
abhors to gain the additional
power and to lower freight rates.
Flegel chilled the crowd at the
start by characterizing the cham
ber of commerce as "one of the
most partisan organizations in Ore
gon." He accused its members of
a "belief that the larger propriet
ors should be the chief beneficiaries
of state government."
By the time he finished the au
dience was openly hostile.
When McKay stepped forward I
long, cheering ovation forced him
to wait for minutes. -
Flegel nonchalantly accepted the
hostility to him. "I didn't know
there were this many Republicans
left," he taunted.

North Korean
Resistance To
Allies Grows
Native Reds, Reinforced
By Chinese, Trying To
Extend War Into Winter
IBr Tha AuocUUd Prawt
North Koreans aided by an
undetermined number of Chinese
Communist troops stepped up
their resistance today against
United Nations forces on a 250
mile northern peninsula front be-
, !ow , ,h Communist Manchurian
ooroer.
The mountainous front, easily
penetrated by allied spearheads,
has now become a blazing check
erboard. The Communist aim ap
parently is to stall United Nations
forces until wintry blasts freeze
the campaign into another year.
A U. S. army spokesman in Wash
ington said the belated appearance
of Chinese troops shows Red Chi
na's determination to protect the
huge Suiho-Supong power dam on
the Yalu river which supplies elec
tricty for Manchurian points as dis
tant as Harbin and the Russian
naval base at Port Arthur.
Field dispatches indicated the
Reds have thrown scores of tanks
and heavy guns into the fighting
in all sectors.
Against this mounting resistance,
the only impressive gain of the day
was made by an armored col
umn of the U. S. 24th division.
It skirted the British Common
wealth 27th brigade and reached
within 33 miles of the border.
Proof of Chines Aid
An intelligence officer at Gen.
MacArthur'fi Tokyo headquarters
confirmed that ten Chinese Reds
werfcapinred in North Korea. He"
added that there is no conclusive
evidence that organized Chinese
units hsve entered the fighting.
However there was this indica
tion of Chinese Communist partici
pation: Chinese prisoners were captured
in four widely separated areas. Re
sistance has stiffened tremendously
and there is evidence the North
Koreans have received powerful
reinforcements and additional arm
ament. The reinforcements that have
come into the fighting are well
trained, the intelligence spokesman
said. The sudden flurry of coun
terattacks indicates that the North
Koreans are again being directed
from a general headquarters, that
they have restored their communi
canons .
cations and have a definite plan
i0f defense.

Washout Closes
N. Umpqua Road
Above Steamboat
The North Umpqua road is closet!
indefinitely by a washout tour
miles above Steamboat.
Reports of widespread flood dam
age are coming in from the Ump
qua national forest, but only a few
sections have been contacted and
no appraisal of loss is possible at
present, Bob Aufderheide, super
visor, reports.
The washout is known to be ex
tensive and will force road closure
for 'several days, the supervisor
said. No report has been received
concerning road conditions between
the washout and Toketee Falls
Copco camp. Copco crews are
working toward Steamboat. They
are expected to report conditions
later today.
A slide blocking the North Ump
qua road two miles west of Steam
boat was cleared Monday.
The Associated Plywood com
pany's bridge across Little river
to the Red Butte road was washed
out.
As telephone lines to the Tiller
ranger station are down, no report
has been received from the South
Umpqua district, but damage to
the South Umpqua river road above
Tiller is expected to be extensive,
Aufderheide says.
New Pavement
Cutting Machine
Almost Silent
FRANKLIN, Pa. UP) One of
the big city's street noises may be
partially stilled thanka to a new
machine.
Th Joy Manufacturing company
announced it has developed a
pavement cutrtM machine which
maker relatively little din as it
slices through concrete and bricks.
Joy officials said the machine will
be a boon to city dwellers who
have trouble sleeping because of
the rat-a-tat-tat of pneumatic ham
mers used by street repair crews.
The new machine, the company
said, also will triple the speed and
halve the cost of pavement re
moval operations.
The machine, mounted on rubber
tired wheals, includes two 48-inch
wheel cutting elements. Tungsten
carbide tipped bita cut dual slots
two inches wide in concrete and
brick pavements up to 15 inches
thick.
When the machines are being
turned out on a regular basis, (he
company said, the price will be
about (35,000 each.

Rest Of Northwest Gets
Warning Of Possibility
Of Further Heavy Rains
PORTLAND A new
storm struck the battered, flooded
southern Oregon and northern Cal
ifornia coasts today, and the
weather bureau warned the rest of
the Pacific Northwest to expect the
diow anortiy.
The area, struck by winds that
claimed four lives, then floods that
claimed five more, still has not
recovered from successive storms
of the past week. High water re
ceded in most places, but still cov
ered some roads today.
Winds up to 40 miles an hour
were expected in the new storm
from the Pacific ocean. These were
not expected to be particularly
damaging, but the fear waa that
heavy rains might also sweep in.
with the ground already soaked,
flooding again could result.
Headwater streams that had
driven 2.000 people from homes
over the weekend were receding al
most as fast as they had swirled
out of their banks. Soma commu
nities were still isolated behind
flooded roads and broken or un
safe bridgea. Many families in ru
ral southern Oregon were ma
rooned a third day.
Father and Son Drown
The evacuation of a Coquille val
ley farm family led Monday to the
drowning of a Leo A. Landive, 35,
and son Dan, age 8. Landive s wite,
another son and nieghbors Joe
Howanirk and Tom lverson strug
gled ashore when a rowboat cap
sized in the churning river.
Two of the other victims per
ished in the same wild Oregon
coastal range river earlier.
The Willamette's crest rolled
northward today through t h
heavily populated and fertile farm
land valley that stretches 100 miles
from Eugene to Portland.
Willamette's Crest Ralls
The Willamette river crest rolled
past Albany today, flooding some
lowlands and reaching up to 26
feet on the high banks there. That
was six feet above official flood
level, but the water did not get
into the city.
The crest soon reached the Sa
lem area. It was not expected to go
above 23 feet at Salem, three feet
above flood level, but too low to
cause much damage. Only low-lying
pastures and rural roads were
affected.
At Myrtle Point, Mayor J. M.
Meyers said 40 buildings in town
and about 250 homes outside the
city limits were flooded. He said
all residents were safe and he aaid
there was enough food at hand
until roads were opened.
In addition to the evacuations at
Glenwood and Springfield, a Red
Cross official said there were per
haps 600 motorists stranded there
when highways were covered. This
situation was repeated elsewhere
over th weekend.
