Soviet Schemes For Oil
In Arab-Israel Quarrel
WASHINGTON I - Asst. Secre.
iry of State Henry .. Byroade
rejorts Russia is now openly
championing the Arabs in their
quarrel wih Israel so she can
get to her "primary goal" con
trol of the world's richest oil
fields.
Byroade cited stepped-up Soviet
propaganda and diplomatic moves
in telling the Senate Foreign Re
lations Committee that "there are
dangers of losing the Middle East"
to communism.
American policy, he said, is to
help the Middle Eastern countries
maintain their independence and
to provide "evenhanded treatment
between the two sides.

Reduced Fines
On Log Truckers
Hit By Unander
SALEM ( A state official
proposed Monday to stop justices
of the peace from reducing fines
against log truck operators who
overload their trucks.
State Treasurer Sig Unander
estimated the state had lost several
hundred thousand dollars since
Jan. 1 because the justices of the
peace were remitting portions of
the fines.
Unander asked Atty. Gen. Robert
Y. Thornton in a letter to take
legal action to stop the practice.
The request followed an opinion
by the attorney general last month
stating that the practice was
Ulegal.
Unander suggested a mandamus
proceeding be instituted to compel
the courts to impose and collect
penalties upon conviction and
prevent the justices of peace from
improper reduction of fines in the
future.
If courts uphold the state's con
tention that fines for overloads
i cannot be remitted, Unander plans
I to request the attorney general to
lake legal steps to recover money
lost to the state, either from the
! justices or their bondsmen,
i Unander said it appeared the
I remitting practice was most
prevalent in Lane County, though
practiced quite generally through
out the state.
! Experts disagree as to why
crickets sing, explanations varying
from mating call to battle cry or
just self expression.

LANE TOWN INCORPORATES
LOWELL I This Willamette
River community 20 miles east of
Eueene voted Wednesday to incor
porate as a municipality. The vote
was 76-k' in a small turnout ot tne
400 registered voters.
The last previous Lane County
town to incorporate was Oakridgi,
in 1934.
Lookout Point Dam Is partly in
Lowell and some of the old town

rester" was designed primarily
for the pipe smoker with weak
teeth, according to ita New

has a specially curved stem
that rests unobtrusively against

nates the need to grip the pipe
tightly in the teeth, and makes
for a rested smoker.

Auto Dummies Used
To Cut Down Speeding
RALEIGH, N.C. I If you speed
by a highway patrol car here and
the driver doesn't give chase, it's
probably because he's dumb.
The fact is the patrol has rigged
up dummies complete with hel
mets and sun glasses to scare
drivers into slower speeds.
It will take a sharp motorist to
tell the real thing.
