The slide blocked off traffic sometime between 5 and 5:30 p.m. Monday. It was the second in about a week on new construction just east of Reedsport.

Package Deal Illegal, Immoral UN1TKD NATIONS, N Y. OH Nationalist China Tuesday blasted the U.N. membership package deal as "illegal and immoral" and ap pealed to the Security Council to reject it. The Chinese Nationalist dele gate, Dr. T. F. Tisang, also sought to overturn' an agreement between Russia and the Western powers on voting procedure for the admis sion of 18 new members to the world organization. Tsiang spoke as the 11-nation Se curity Council headed toward a vote. Without further debate, the coun cil overrode Tsiang's objections and approved the voting plan prev iously accepted by Russia and the Western powers. The vote was 8 to 1 (China) with the United States and Belgium abstaining. The council then voted 8-2 to adjourn until 3 p.m. when voting was scheduled to begin. The Chinese delegate appealed to all delegates "to muster enough courage to stand up to the Soviet Union." He spoke after Soviet delegate Arkady A. Sobolev had announced he was ready to accept a Western plan of procedure in the council's voting. Tsiang challenged the Western procedure as a "total surrender to the dictates of the Soviet Un ion." The Western voting plan called on each of the 18 applicants and KrilC LlflfC Ufa then a final vote on aU of them!wua ,cu, w r as a group. This would make it possible to block the admission of all applicants u tne preliminary voting did not satisfy all the five permanent powers who have the veto power.

Miss Nevins was shot four times at close range last Friday night or early Saturday after working late at the school library, where she had a part-time job. She was buried yesterday. The Rev. Joe R. Kennedy, her former pastor and now of Des Moines, eulogized her as a girl whose life "was already dedicated to the Lord" through her church work. i A few hours later, police re leased on $100 appearance bond an ex-taxi driver picked up after he had allegedly beeri heard to say a tavern"! killed that broad." The man agreed to take a lie detector test and Capt. Alvin Clin chard said the test indicated he was not responsible for the kill ing." Fate Of Martin Reyes To Be Left Up To Jury CORVALMS im The fate of Martin B. Reyes, accused of first degree murder in the gun shot slaying of James R. Appelgate here last October, was expected to be in the hands of a jury Tues day. Reyes. 24. Seattle, did not take the witness stand in his own de fense. His attorney, Robert Mix, told the jury that Reyes, who had broken out of the Lane County jail at Eugene earlier in the evening, was attempting to flee and that a cun he was holding accidentally discharged in a struggle with Ap pelgate. Dep. Pist. Atty. Robert Ringo, in his closing statement Monday, asked the death sentence for Reyes. Reyes mother, Mrs. Mary Ver- zola, Seattle, who has been a spec tator at the trial, went when the death penalty was asked. Rail Pay Boost Awaits Railroad, Union Acceptance By FRED S. HOFFMAN WASHINGTON l Another W,l cents an hour in pay and health benefits for 750,000 non-operating rail employes hinges today on a railroad and union acceptance. There was no immediate com ment from either side on the rec ommendation, contained in a fact finding report filed at the White House by a special three-man board appointed by President Ei senhower. However, such recommendations while not binding on the parties have generally formed a basis for settlement of past rail labor disputes. The unions had demand ed 27 cents an hour more. The railroads had offered lO'l cents. Nonoperating rail workers now get an average of $1.78 an hour. It was- estimated the recom mended raise would cost the rail roads about 250 million dollars a year. Affected are such workers as telegraphers, clerks and others who do not run the trains. The operating employes, like engineers and firemen, are not involved. Most of the nonoperating em ployes would get a 1414 cents an hour wage increase, plus 2 cents an hour toward a health and wel fare plan which would become wholly company-financed. In the past, the workers have contributed the $6.80 a month insurance pre mium.

President Eisenhower Lays $35 Billion Defense Budget Before Congressional Heads By JACK BELL WASHINGTON Wi President Eisenhower was reported to have laid before congressional leaders Tuesday a defense budget in ex cess of 35 billion dollars, with nearly half to go for the Air Force and guided missile development. In a three-hour White House con ference with leaders of both par ties, the President was said to have emphasized the necessity of shap ing American military forces to ward averting disaster at home In case of war and providing immed iate heavy retaliation against an enemy. Some of those who attended the conference said the summary of world conditions given by the Pres ident and Secretary of State Dulles generally was optimistic despite W. Washington Waters Slowly Return To Beds By THI ASSOCIATED PRISS Western Washington's rain-swollen streams crept slowly back within their beds Tuesday, soothed by a blanket of cold arctic air which sent temperatures dip ping below the freezing point from Canada to Oregon. .Many Western Washington streams, fed by torrents of rain over the' weekend, foamed over their banks Monday. The most spectacular rise was that of the Green River. The Greens muddy waters 'Bltu ,,u,,":a- i i stalled as the water crept over roads and lapped at the undersides of bridges. No loss of life or heavy property damage was reported. Rail traffic was moving through the Cascades again as crews work ed to repair washouts completely and to clear away the remains Milwaukee and Northern Pacific jineSt ' , - . Attorneys Start Defense ' In Burton Abbott's Trial OAKLAND, Calif. 1 Attorneys for Burton Abbott started their defense today against charges he committed the unwitnessed kid naping and slaying of 14-year-old Stephanie Bryan. ihe prosecution wound up its circumstantial case Monday with testimony by Dr. Paul Kirk, Uni versity of California criminologist. All that remained was the formal ity of announcing the state rested. Dr. Kirk testified the chances were at least 125,000 to 1 that two strands of hair he found in Ab bott's car were from the head of the girl. The scientist said his figure of 125,000 was a "minimum estimate" and gave it after stating on cross examination that he could not be absolutely positive the hair was Stepaanie's. On cross-examination he said he was not certain clay found on Ab bott's boots came from the girl's grave nor was he sure blood found i on a car mat was hers. Eight Airmen Killed As Big Plane Crashes TETUA.V, Spanish Morocco Iff Spanish border guards say a 1 1 eight airmen aboard a U. S. mili tary transport plane were killed .when the craft hit a 5.000-foot peak in the rugged Riff Mountains and exploded. The plane was a four-engine C54 of the U. S. Air Force's 1700 Air Transport Group, based at Kelly Field, San Antonio, Tex. The transport crashed Sunday night in the Gormora district, near the bor der between French and Spanish Morocco. Flying from Wheelus Field in Tripoli to Casablanca, it was be lieved en route to the United States. PefersrJorf Resigns Post On Sanitary Dist. Board (Continued from Pagt One I bers, an action approved on Dec. 5 bv the North Roseburg Sanitary i i District. In spite of the petition, the sani-' , tary board ordered a go-ahead on a preliminary survey to estab-; lish an exact cost of sewer system. The district secretary, O r p h a I Rutan, was directed to ask en gineers to make the survey com plete before an election on the pro ! posed dissolution is held. Engineering for the district has been done by Cornell, Howland, i Hayes and jferryfield, Corvallis i consultants. The board authorized payment of several bills.

It was emphasized that neither the President nor Dulles felt there was any immediate danger of war. The military budget discussed at the White House meeting would be for the 12 months beginning next July 1. In the present fiscal year, defense spending is expected to run between 34 and 33 billion dol lars with the Air Force share about IS billion. The evidently firm decision to increase military expenditures by perhaps a half billion dollara or more indicated the administration has no current plans to propose a cut in taxes. Although this subject was not mentioned in the general meeting with the leaders, some of them said they had been told individual ly there will be no tax cutting recommendation in the President's forthcoming messages to Congress. By and large, the reaction of the congressional leaders to the Presi dent's foreign and defense pro grams, as outlined in the meeting, appeared to be favorable. Chairman Russell (D-Ga) of the Senate Armed Services Committee told reporters: "I think the de fense program looks fairly good." The session completed the major business Eisenhower tabbed for ac tion when he came to Washington last week. It cleared the way for his return to his Gettysburg, Pa., farm and another period of rest and recuperation from his heart attack. jj Moke This a Clothing Christmas O SHOP FOR CHRISTMAS MEN'S SOXS 19 Buy All You Want No Limit!
