Huge Growth
In E. Oregon
In Forecast
BOARDMAN, Ore. (AP) Gov.
Hark Hatfield told some 300 Mor
row County residents Thursday
night the state of Oregon is enter
ing a vital period of economic
development.
He spoke at the Boardman High
School gymnasium, proposing a
space-age, industrial development
park at the Boardman Bombing
Range, a federally owned area of
more man ae.uuo acres.
The governor and members of
the state Department of planning
and Development, along with
members of the Chambers of
Commerce of Morrow and Uma
tilla counties, toured the bombing
range inursciay altcrnoon.
Prior to the meeting Gov. Hat-
iiciu and lus party dined in Hoard
man with chamber officials.
Army Engineers and county com
missioners. He said the geographic area
east of the Cascades is as vital
and important an area as that
west of the Cascades and the
state Department of Planning and
Development believes the greatest
potential lor economic oevelop
ment is east of the mountains.
Power Potential Figured
Hatfield said tlie conclusions
were based on the potential
amount of power available from
the John Day Dam on the Co
lumbia Itiver. the great area of
avaiiamc land and the areas free
from interference by electrical
impulses or airplanes a vital fac
tor to many space-age industries.
In a question and answer peri
od, Sheriff Roy Bauman of Mor
row County asked if the industry
should come here, would this re
quire additional community facil
ities and schools and where would
the money come from to operate
them.
Gov. Hatfield replied that it
was the community's problem to
provide the needed services but
the state would attempt to pro
vide the necessary leadership in
getting it.
He said this would be a grad
ual break and such problems
would take care of themselves.
Robert Parr, state director of
state Department of Planning and
Development, said prosperity will
come with the new industry. "We
havo a large file of prospects,
some hot and some long range.
He mentioned no firm rallies.
Huge Art Considered
Hatfield said an area of 100.000
acres was tinder consideration.
This would mean that 20.000 ad
ditional acres north of the bomb
ing range would he needed. The
land fronts the John Day Dam
reservoir.
Lester Grant of Arlington want
ed to know if this would increase
the population, and Hatfield re
plied with the prediction that it
would mean a phenomenal
growth, "I would not dare predict
a population figure." Hatfield
said, "but 1 believe there will be
a phenomenal growth in the area
over a period of years."

Lunch Stand
Bnttlefront
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Negro sit down demonstrators
continued to troop through the jails
and courts of the South today but
showed no signs of forsaking the
lunch counter battlefront.
Negro spectators marched
straight from the trial of five dem
onstrators at Little Rock, Ark., to
enter downtown stores in a new sc
ries of protests against segrega
tion. In two other cities swift police
action averted near riots, but not
before blows were struck in one
incident.
A group of white men and youths
used their fists on four Negro col
lege students leaving a St. Augus
tine. Fla., variety store after stag
ing a sit-down protest. Police Chief
Virgil Stuart held off a crowd of
white persons with a riot gun load
ed with tear gas while other offi
cers hustled the Negroes into a
taxi which sped them away. The
crowd quickly broke up.
St. Pat Insults
Hundreds of whites and Negroes
stood on opposite sides of a Sa
vannah, Ga., street and hurled in
sults at each other during a St.
Patrick's Day parade. But police
dispersed the jeering moo before
any blows could be struck.
There were new arrests at New
Bern, N.C., where 29 Negroes were
jailed on trespassing charges and
released under $25 bonds after re
fusing to leave lunch counters at
two stores.
A dozen Negro college students
sat for an lion, at a Charlotte,
N.C., lunch counter but there were
no arrests or incidents.
The Little Rock demonstrators
were not arrested. Managers of the
five stores invaded closed their
lunch counters and the Negroes
left. The five tried in municipal
court for a demonstration a week
ago drew $250 fines and 30-day jail
sentences. Their attorney said
mere would be an appeal.
Students at South Carolina State
College for Negorcs at Orancburg
were warned they would be ex
pelled if they participated in any
further demonstrations like Wed
nesday s mass protest. Trial of the
first 15 of 350 Negroes arrested '.vas
scheduled Thursday.
Bruce W. White, chairman of the
Negro college's board of trustees
issued the explusion threat at a
meeting in the office of Gov. Er
nest F. Hollings.
fcleven Negroes were tined S..00
each and given 30-day suspended
jail sentences at Tallahassee, Fla.
City Judge Join Rudd, warning
them not to participate in any
further demonstrations, told them,
"Do not try to be a martyr."

Writer, Wife
Shot By Son
PORTLAND (AP) -llilmar
Grondahl, music critic for The
Oregonian, and his wife were
wounded by gunshots Thursday.
Police arrested their son, Richard
Corbin Grondah., 24, on a charge
of premeditated shooting with in
tent to kill.
Young Grondahl was held in jail
under $10,000 bail.
The father was struck in the hip
and the leg. Mrs. Grondahl was
shot in the side of the neck. Both
were taken to St. Vincent's Hos
pital where their condition was re
ported as satisfactory.
Police said young Grondahl told
them that he shot his parents be
cause they attempted to dominate
his life.
The statement from the youth,
a University of Oregon student,
said he had planned the shooting
last weekend. It said he intended
to make it look as though a prowl
er was responsible. Young Gron
dahl said he fired four shots.
Later in jail the youth told re
porters: "I feel pretty guilty and
pretty bad about the whole busi
ness. I'm sorry it happened. It
was not very good judgment, I
guess."
He blamed the act on a "psy
chological domination thing." He
said his parent had rejected his
friends and that "made me and
tbem feel bad . . . and it all work
ed up to a climax."
He said he likes music but didn't
like to practice the piano, which
he has done for three years
"against my will."

Xubari Arms
Build Despite
Economy Woe
HAVANA (AP) Fidel Castro is
building up a powerful armed
force in a nation confronted with
economic headaches and a short
age of foreign currency.
The revolutionary regime has
launched a fund-raising campaign
for arms, trumpeting that they are
needed for defense against ioreign
aggression.
But some Cubans believe Castro,
mindful of the island republic's tur
bulent history, is taking precau
tions against potential enemies at
home.
"If Castro felt certain of his
hold on the people, he wouldn't be
calling for arms," these Cubans
say. "But he knows from exper
ience that the same crowd who
cheers him today will turn upon
him as they did on other popular
Cuban leaders when the situation
gets difficult.
"He needs arms to supply not
only the regular army but the ci
vilian militia as well. If trouble
comes, he'll have ready the larg
est armed force Cuba has ever
seen."
The novernment has used the
explosion of the French freighter
La Coubre while delivering muni
tions in Havana harbor to spur a,
funds-for-arms campaign that be
gan more than six months before.
By official estimate, some two
million pesos equal to dollars in
Cuba but worth much less on the
world market; were raised before
the La Coubre tragedy which took
between 80 and 100 lives.
The Castro government has offi
cially identified the United States
as the chief aggressor against
Cuba. The pro-Castro radio and
press whipped up antagonism
against the United Slates with
pleas for more defense contribu
tions. Today in Havana's streets,
people sound more concerned with
who blew up the arms than what
the arms were for.
Ask a Cuban today if he actual
ly believes the United States would
invade Cuba and the answer is
likely to be an unqualified "yes."
Some anti-Castro Cubans won
der out loud why American Mar
ines don't come here to "straight
en things out."
Ex-Con Suspect
In Seattle Death
SEATTLE (AP) A young
Oregon ex-convict was sought
Friday for questioning in the fatal
shooting of a Seattle cab driver,
Ralph Gemhill, 39, whose body

The King County sheriff's office
said the ex-convict's description
was found to match that of the
last passenger known to have en
tered Gemhill's taxi.
Gcmhill's passenger .was de
scribed as 29, 5-foot-9, 175 pounds,
with bushy, brown hair. He was
wearing tan pants and a red
sweater.
A man of that description hitch
ed a ride from Tacoma to Tenino
Wednesday night. Detectives said
the man returned to Tacoma and
stayed overnight at a cheap hotel,
but left Thursday morning.
