Hope waned for the 94 persons listed as missing after the steamer sank. The passenger list of th steam er, City of Buenos Aires, did not include children under 6. It was j feared several such children were aboard and lost, and the toll actu ally was above 94. There were no casualties on the Mormacsurf. The river boat's owners blamed the 7,890-ton U.

I -Scientists detonated au atomic de vice 750 feet above the Nevada desert Friday in what was termed a "pure test" for scientific pur poses. It flashed across the sky at5:40 a.m. (PDT) with an orange-pink fireball which lasted for only a half-dozen seconds. The shot was scheduled when unfavorable winds forced post ponement of a bigger blast, "Smoky," which is to include elaborate military maneuvers. No maneuvers were conducted in connection with Friday's shot, codenamed "franklin Prim e," which was the 14th in the Atomic Energy Commission's current test series. There were 19 experiments connected with it. It was detonated from a balloon! tethered above the AEC's Yucca! Flat test center. The AEC said that it was "subnominal" in pow er. (Nominal is the equivalent to 20.000 tons of TNT or twenty ki lotons). The flash was clearly seen in the pre-dawn sky at Las Vegas, more than 70 miles lo the south east. Boston Paper Strike Settled BOSTON Wi Six Boston daily newspapers resumed publication today for the first time since a strike of 300 mailing room em ployes forced their suspension last Aug. 9. The 5.000 employes of the news papers were called bafk to work last night immediately following settlement of the dispute. Agreement on the salary issue was reached at a State House j meeting yesterday between the 1 publishers and representatives of ! the Mailers' Union, an affiliate of the International Typographical Union. I The striking mailers ratified by a vote of 144-25 the agreement which will give them a $10.50 two year package salary increase, ( plus arbitration of wage differ-, enccs above that figure. j Max Milstein, president of the! Mailers Local, said there is no ceiling on the amount to he arbi-j traled above the S10.50 figure "whether it be $10 one cent or nothing." Congress Preparing For Adjournment Today (Continued from page ona) its approval of a civil rights bill "would entitle it to a place in 1 history." May Disagree "1 realize that honorable men disagree over the merits of the measure," Johnson said. "But no one can argue that it is meaning-1 hss. And no one can avoid the fact that it is the first such measure passed by Congress in 82 years." Asserting that President Kisen hower had made 155 proposals for legislative action, Johnson said Congress had passed more than half and that others are still on the calendars of both houses. Kisenhower told a White House news conference Aug. 21 that he was disappointed because Con gress had not acted on more of his recommendations. F.xpressing hope the President will read "the actual facts upon what we did." Johnson said "he will find that the record of this Congress was as fine as any that he can recall and that it passed mora substantial bills than the first session during hu first ad ministration." That particular Congress was controlled by the Republicans. The Senate passed the civil rights bill, designed to protect the voting rights of Negroes, on a 60 15 roll call vote. Passage came near the end of a marathon 39 hour session, in which Sen. Thur mond I D SC) waged a record one man filibuster against it. Thurmond spoke for 24 hours and 19 minutes, and said "I feel fine" when he quit. He smashed a fourvear record of 22 hours and M minutes, held by Sen. Morse iP-Orc. The civil rights measure repre sented a victory for the Kisenhow er administration, although it had been shorn of some featurei the President had requested. IT'S SO EASY RIDE THE Roseburg City Bus Oregon State Fair To Open Saturday SALEM, I The best of Ore gon s agricultural and livestock products goes on display Satur day as the 92nd Oregon State Fair opens for eight days.

The first awards in the art division were announced Fri day, with Royal Bradbury, San Francisco, winning the sweep stakes award, Stassen Believes Russia Seriously Negotiating (Continued from page one) step disarmament agr e e m e n t. American hopes for solid progress in the London talks had been built on some kind of positive Soviet re action to this Western initiative. But Valerian Zorm, the Soviet negotiator, promptly, almost con temptuously, denounced the Stas sen offering as containing nothing of value. This, coming on lop of Russia's intercontinental rocket claim and an earlier Zorin blast, indicated that a breakdown in the negotia tions was threatened and a crisis was at hand. But Stassen. on his arrival in New York, an intermediate stop in his trip here, told reporters he considered Zorin's attack to be "part of tough bargaining." There is no reason to think that Stassen's private estimate would differ from his public statements in their consistent optimism. FIRE AT QUEMOY TAIPEI ii The Chinese Com munists fired 49 shells at Quemoy Thursday night but caused no dam age or casualties, the Nationalist Defense Ministry reported.

HARVARD OR 2-3402 SUE LADD A lit ToUnt Show, Douglas American Claim Answer To Soviet Ballistic Missile WASHINGTON iifl The Army reportedly believes it has a prov en answer to Russia's claimed in tercontinental missile an Amer ican missile, ready for production, that could hit key Soviet areas from advance bases. The Army's proposed counter- weapon is the Jupiter, an inter mediate range ballistic missile which soared 1.500 miles over the Atlantic Tuesday in a test flight from Cape Canaveral, Fla. Secre tary of the Army Bruckcr labeled the Jupiter "a spectacular suc cess." It is understood that only the Pentagon's secrecy lid on missile developments prevents the Army from saying flatly that the Jupi ter could be in production within 30 days. Brucker said in Florida Thurs day that the Soviet announcement last Monday of a successful test of a 5.000-mile missile indicated the Russians were - talking of a "research test vehicle." That is a long way, he said, from "an oper ational vehicle." There have been no known suc cessful U.S. tests of an intercon tinental ballistic missile. The United States has an ad vantage in land bases its own plus those in friendly hands around the world. A missile launched from Communist territory would have to travel thousands of miles to reach the United States. House Approves Law Protecting FBI Files Search i j WASHINGTON ifi The House passed Friday, 315-0, a compro i mise bill aimed at preventing de '. lease lawyers from searching freely through FBI files. This sent the measure to President Eisen hower. The Justice Department says ! the legislation is needed to ward 'off a law enforcement emergen cy. The adjournment-hungry House i acted with a minimum of debate, i The senate had passed the com promise 74-2 shortly after mid night. Sens. Langer (R-ND) and iKefauver (D-Tenn) voted against it. The bill was worked out from differing versions passed earlier by the Senate and House. Sens. O'Mahoney (D-Wyo), Rep. Celler (D-NY) and Rep. Keating (R-NY) all agreed the compro mise measure would protect FBI files in the wake of the Supreme Court's Jencks decision last June, while still safeguarding the rights of defendants. The high court ruled then that Clinton Jencks. a former laboi union official, had a right, in try ing to discredit the testimony of a government witness against him, to examine reports the witness had made to the government con cerning matters on which the wit ness testified. The Supreme Court ordered a new trial for Jencks, who had been convicted of falsely swear ing he was not a communist. Prisoner Says Officer Carried Cun Into Jail (Continued from page one) shirt with the 'tail out to cover my gun." This was corroborated by another officer who had taken the plainclothesman to the store where the arrest was made. Escape Use Admitted The blank pistol could easily have been used in an escape. It tooks wicked enough to be the real McCoy. Williams told Smith and Murdoch he had planned lo use it in breaking out the jail if he had) had the opportunity. I The oistoi incident na naa re sults.

Fair, 19S7 3 Workmen Hurt When Overpass Is Hit By Truck SALEM, ( Three workmen were injured. one critically, Thursday morning when a power shovel being trucked to Portland struck an overpays bridge under construction on Highway 99E about 14 miles south of here. Frank Jackson of Salem was in critical condition at Albany General Hospital with an injured back after he was pitched 15 feet onto the highway and pinned by two massive timbers Treated and released from the Albany hospital were Clarence A. Hunt of Salem and Glenn Mollett, Albany. Mollett grabbed an elec tric cord and dangled above the accident scene until rescued. Hunt was buried in the debris but es caped serious injury. The loaded truck, owned by United Trailer and Equipment Co. of Portland, ripped away a 50-foot center section of the bridge. State police said the shovel exceeded the maximum height load by some six inches. Highway 99E was blocked from 10:30 a.m. until late afternoon and state police routed traffic over an old section of the high way through Jefferson. Beck Posts Bond After Voluntary Court Appearance SEATTLE Ufi President Dave Beck of the International Team sters Union, under indictment for federal income tax evasion, was free on $25,000 bond Friday after surrendering voluntarily to the Li. S. marshal's office. In a seven count indictment handed down by a federal grand jury in Tacoma Wednesday, Beck was accused of evading $184,000 in federal income taxes during the years 1951, 1952 and 1953. He previously had been charged with evading $56,000 in federal in come taxes for the year 1950. That indictment was handed down May 2. Beck went to the U. S. mar shal's office to surrender and post bond after arriving here from Los Angeles, where he had been at tending a meeting of the union's executive board. Two Others Appear Two of three other men also named in Wednesday's indictment also posted bond Thursday. Dave Beck Jr. and Fred Ver schueren, Teamsters Union audit or, each posted bond of $5,000 on charges they conspired to aid beck br. in evading income taxes.

Gunman Holds Up Bank In Portland PORTLAND iif) A lone gun man Friday robbed the Sixth and Morrison Street branch of the First National Bank in downtown Portland of 83,800. Teller Alice Oppersthauser, 35, told bank officials the d a r k skinned man anproached her win dow and handed her a note, print ed on the bank form, and a shop ping bag from a nearby depart ment store. He also drew back his sports coat to display a gun tucked in the waistband of his trousers. The printed note said: "This is a stickup." Bank Vice President George Henderson said the wom an teller took her time about put ting the money in the sack while the robber calmly waited for her. The man then walked out one of the main entrances and dis appeared. There was no disturbance in the bank and several of the bank's officers did not even know the holdup had occurred until report ers called to question them about it. The robberv occurred at about 10:10 a. m. (PST). This is the 'hird robbery at the bank in the last 16 months In April. 1956. a gunman got S3. Six. and in February of this vear an other took $930. v -WML' Russians Have Fired Several Ballistic Missiles WASHINGTON itf Russia was reported Friday to have fired at least four long range ballistic mis siles since June and to have test ed many more of shorter range over a longer time. Moscow withheld until last week any announcement of its claimed successful test of an intercontin ental missile. But bits and pieces of the information had been com ing into Washington from intelli gence sources since shortly after the test operations started. Apparently the Kremlin's an nouncement on Monday was timed to make it a contribution to the fierce new Soviet diplomatic of fensive against the West. But on ly the timing was a real surprise here and presumably in Allied capitals. , Since the Russian announce ment there have been solidly backed reports here that the U. S. Army believes it has ready for production a proven counterwea pon an American missile of shorter range which could hit key Soviet areas from advance bases. And there is every evidence of high-level doubt here that the Rus sians actually have a production model of a 5,000-mile intercontin ental missile ready for operation al use. Officials stress the differ ence between an experimental prototype and an atomic warhead weapon ready for use. 22 Lepers Die In Medieval Battle In Korea SEOUL, I A medieval battle of bamboo spears, stones, clubs and axes between villagers and lepers has left 22 lepers dead and 53 injured seriously on the tiny island of Pidori. Fourteen vil lagers were injure'.1. Police Friday clamped tight con trol over the island 50 miles west of the southeast port of Pusan. The 7 villagers were arrested and charged them with mob violence and sedition. An emergency alert was declar ed in Southeast Korea as 7,000 I lepers showed signs of unrest. Is'n troops have yet been mobilized, however. I Police said more than 70 lepers were attacked by about 100 vil i lagers Wednesday night after the I lepers refused lo vacate their set tlement near the village of Sain chonpo. The lepers were moved to the island Ihe first of August to work on uncultivated land. The villagers resented Iheir presence, fearing they might contract the disease. The lepers were unarmed and were caught unaware by the sud den attack, police said. The fight ing raged all night and order was not restored until police arrived next morning. All the doctors from two provin cial hospitals were mobilized to treat the injured at an improvised medical center in Samchonpo.
