SEATO Aid
Seen For Laos
BANGKOK, ThatlaDd (AP)
Pole Sarasin, Southeast Asia Trea
ty Organization secretary general,
said today SEATO might send
troops to Laos if that strife -rid den
nation asked for aid.
Pote's statement came on the
eve of 31th SEATO military ad
visers conference here. It will dis
cus the pro-Communist rebellion
in the little Asian kingdom.
If Laos asked for help Pote said
"responsibility of SEATO would
first be to consider it and take
necessary measures to go to the
assistance of Laos which may in
volve troops." The eight member
governments would have to ap
prove any such intervention.
The Laotian request for U.N.
help and the subsequent dispatch
of a U.N. fact-finding committee
there does not rule out the pos
sibility of a similar request
to SEATO. Pote said.
Top military officials from eight
nations, including Adm. Harry D.
Kelt, commander of all U.S. forces
in the Pacific, will talk for three
days on military problems in the
area at the SEATO conference.
Other member nations are Aus
tralia, France. New Zealand, Pak
istan, the Philippines, Thailand
and the United Kingdom.

Tourist Value
Seen In Dunes
PORTLAND (AP) Sen. Rich
ard L. Neuberger (D-Ore) thinks
he knows how to increase the tour
ist business in Oregon.
For a start a national park
should be created at the Oregon
Dunes on the Florence-Reedsport
stretch of the coast, he said after
returning home from Washington,
DC. Sunday.
Neuberger didn't mind Port
land's rain after Washington's
heat.
"1 think people who complain
about Oregon and ils weather
should spend some time in Wash
ington." he said.
"I don't think we really have
capitalized on the wonderful 'our
ist attractions of our state." He
said that the failure of some per
sons to recognize the natural
attractions of Oregon underlies
opposition to the proposed estab
lishment of the national park in
the Dunes.
Neuberger is sponsoring n bill
to establish such a park. Hearings
are scheduled on it at Reedsport
Oct. 5 and Eugene Oct. 7. It is
opposed by some persons living
near the proposed park site.
Neuberger said he was relaxed
about politics. "If I were defeated
(for re-election) the worst that
could happen would be my return
to Oregon where I could enjoy
living and writing," he said.
Division Of Twins
Draws Optimism
PORTLAND (AP) A noted
London surgeon is cautiously op
timistic about the chances of suc
cess in separating the Stubble
field Siamese twins.
Dr. Ian Aird, who flew here
from Los Angeles Saturday, said i
after examining the twins "tnere
is sufficient expectation of some
success lo justify an operation."
None of the successful opera
tions of the past few years "have
been quite as complicated as this
one appears," he added.
This is because the girl twins,
Jeanett Kim and Denett Linn,
have a common liver. Tney are
joined at the abdomen.
He said he had consulted sur
geons who separated Dutch Sia
mese twins in 1954. These twins
had a liver bridge similar to the
Stubblefields. The Dutch twins
survived the operation.
The Stubbjefield twins were
born June 29 to Mrs. James Slun
blefield of Parma, Idaho. Her hus
band is a farmer.
The birth was at Xyssa, Ore.
Shortly after they were burn, the
twins were flown to Portland
where they have been cared for
at the University of Oregon Med
ical School hospital.
The surgery to separate them
will be performed there early in
October.
Commission said at the hearing
the 10 million dollars being spent
for a reappraisal of county tax
assessment rolls may he wasted
because counties are not doing
their part.
Claries .Mack told the commit
tee the program now is 60 per
cent complete.
Hack said the danger stems
from the failure of tile counties
lo maintain trained assessment
personnel to keep assessment rolls
up to dale after property once has
been reappraised.
The program, he said original
ly was intenned to end with prop
erty reappraised and a competent
corps of assessment workers to
keep property tax appraisal up to
aaie.
Tat Commission Chairman
Dean Ellis also told the. commit
tee some 50 per cent of Oregon's
taxable income goes untaxed be
cause of the various exemptions.
