(AP) -An official of the American Medi cal Assn. charged today that Wal ter F. Reuther and some other labor leaders are "seeking to stampede Congress into hasty and dangerous legislation" under the guise of helping the aged. Dr. F.J.L. Blasingame of Chica go. executive vice president of A MA, said Heuther, head of the United Auto Workers, and others have "deliberately misinformed the American people and. their elected representatives in govern ment." Blasingame attacked the contro versial Forand bill in a speech for the 12th annual Middle Atlantic Hospital Assembly. The bill, re cently voted down by the House ways and Means Committee, pro vides health insurance for social security pensioners, to be fi nanced by an increase in the pay roll tax. The AMA official said doctors have been concerned with the problems of the aged for many years. "We have tried to do this calmly and objectively, as experts who know the subject at first hand, he added. "But some labor leaders, in re sponse, have sought to smear the medical profession. Thev have callously played on the fears of the aged and cynically manrou lated the decent human concern of the public for the health care of the aged. . . . "The principle of compulsory federal health insurance should not be adopted in any guise." Agreement Expected On Columbia River Plan VICTOIIIA, B. C.

From Dust Bowl to mushroom Nike Missile Fired From Under Ground WASHINGTON (AP)-An Army Nike Zeus antimissile missile test model was fired today from an underground launching site at the White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. An Army announcement said this was the first disclosure that the Nike Zeus, intended to destroy enemy intercontinental ballistic missiles in flight, might be launched from protected under ground positions when it is ready for operational use. Today's launching involved only the first-stage booster rocket with a 450,000-pound thrust. The second stage engine and warhead sec tions were dummies. The Army also said that this was the first time that an engine with 450,000-pound thrust had been fired successfully from an under ground launcher. In the five previous Zeus tests, the missiles were fired from or dinary aboveground launching pads. The Army said all objectives in today's test were achieved. Army officials said that an un derground cell, if proven practi cal, would be cheaper to build and more resistant to enemy attack than aboveground launch. atomic cloud, from Ethiopia to Ko rea, the events of the past 25 years were dramatized on a 20-by-15-foot television screen, with ac companying narrative, sound ef fects and music. Cabinet members, labor leaders, industrialists, scientists, New Deal officials. Republicans, Democrats were among the 50 honored guests. Each received a "Living His tory of America" award from the Research Institute of America, the sponsoring organization. The institute, a private, industry-supported business advisory organi zation, is celebrating its own 25th anniversary. Some 1,500 other guests applaud ed the celebrities as the television screen and narration showed how each had made history. The photo graphs were selected from among hundreds of pounds of pictures in the files of Life Magazine and The Associated Press. At a reception before the start of the dinner, a casual glance showed: Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt in an ivory gown of lace, sitting in a corner. Next to her on one side was Dr. Leo Szilard, the man who shares the patent with the late Enrico Fermi for developing the first sustained nuclear chain re action. Szilard, who has cancer and has been told he has not long to live, was given special permis sion to leave a hospital to attend. On Mrs. Roosevelt's right, sal Judge Learned Hand, author of "The, Spirit of Liberty" and ac claimed as one of the nation's great jurists. Standing nearby was Gen. Mark Clark, not far from him Fleet Adm. Chester Nimitz. Thurman Arnold, Franklin D. Roosevelt's trust-busting attorney general, meanwhile was threading his way through the crowd to greet for mer secretary of state James F. Byrnes. Clare Boothe Luce, Henry Cabot Lodge, David Lilienthal and many others could be seen. Morse Charges Senator Kennedy Follows Line Of East's Utilities RICKREALL, Ore. (AP) Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass) until he became a candidate for Presi dent usually followed the line of Eastern private utilities, Sen. Wayne L. Morse (D-Ore) charged Wednesday night. Morse spoke to some 650 persons gathered at this Willamette Valley community just west of Salem in a campaign swing aimed at drum ming up support in his bid for votes in Oregon's May 20 presi dential primary. Morse,- following in the wake of Kennedy, said all in the state of Oregon know the importance of the power issue to the develop ment of the Pacific Northwest. The Oregon senator accused Kennedy of "one of the most re actionary voting records on nat ural resources." "He has voted time and time again against the best interests of the Rural Electrification Ad ministration," Morse asserted.- "On the amendment increasing the authorization from 100 million dollars to 135 million for rural electrification, Kennedy voted no in the 1955 session. "Again in 1955, Kennedy voted against the amendment increas ing from 35 million to 70 million funds that may be loaned to REA for programs." Morse, in addition to Kennedy, will face Sens. Hubert H. Humph rey (Minn), Lyndon B. Johnson (Tex) and Stuart Symington (Mo) in the Democratic presidential pri mary. Johnson and Symington have said they will not campaign in Oregon. Morse struck at Kennedy's vot ing record in other areas too, es pecially on the farm program. He said Kennedy on many occasions "has supported Secretary (of Ag riculture Ezra) Benson and, in do ing so, has voted against the best economic interests of the Ameri can family farmer." "Thus, for example," Morse said, "Kennedy voted against a farm proposal to provide more ef fective price and marketing pro grams for various farm commod ities." Morse said he voted for it. "One of the best examples of a reactionary vote by the senator from Massachusetts," Morse said, "is his vote in 1958 against re ducing the depletion allowance for the oil industry in the United States. , . "Also, in 1959, Kennedy voted on another gas tax increase bill to increase federal gasoline taxes by a cent and a half," Morse said. "I was against the increase." Morse again said he isn't just a favorite son candidate, but is seriously running for a place on the 1960 Democratic presidential ticket and would accept seither President or vice president.

Mike Mansfield (D-Mont) urged today the enlistment of British and other free world scientists and resources in a combined ef fort to win tlie space and speed, race. He said Great Britain's cancel, lation of its Blue Streak mis-silt; project freed some of that coun try's outstanding scientists to help meet what he called "this highest challenge of the capabilities of free nations." In a speech prepared for the Senate, Mansfield suggested the United States seek to enlarge its space and missile program by embracing at least the British, and Canadian scientists in a joint, de velopment. Scientists from other NATO nations and other allies could be added later. "But." he said. "There "would be much to be gained if from th-3 outset the effort could include the NATO members and otlter na tions, i "If we should not underestimate the difficulty of such a joint en terprise, neither can we under estimate its urgency." I The British had been working on the 2.s00-mile Blue Streak mis sile to take over from jet bomber forces in the mid-190s. It was abandoned because of its cost and the likelihood it would be obso lescent before it was ready for use. Instead, Britain announced plans to rely on U.S.-made mis siles to deliver her own nuclear warheads. Britain's action, Mansfield said, for all practical purposes, leaves only the United States and tho Soviet Union with major under takings' in the field. He said that while the Soviet Union is drawing on the scientific talents of its satellites the "free peoples are using only a fraction of their potentia brain power in any cohesive fashion." IT'S KQEN RADIO FOR THE DAY And Night, Too DIAL 1240 Investigators' Acts Being Investigated WASHINGTON (AP) Two con gressional investigators looking into the activities of the Federal Power Commission have been questioned officially about the re ported ransacking of an FPC member's office desk. Both men have denied under oath that they had anything to do with breaking into the desk of FPC Commissioner Arthur Kline last weekend. Apparently nothing was taken, but papers were disar ranged. Although official sources main tained silence, it was learned that the story was told, and the two staff investigators questioned, at two secret meetings of the House Legislative Oversight subcommit tee Tuesday night and Wednesday. An investigation was asked, but no direct charge was made that the staff members were involved. Subcommittee Chairman Oren Harris (D-Ark) was not available for comment and other subcom mittee members either could not be reached or said they could not discuss the situation. The incident occurred only a few days before public hearings on alleged backdoor influencing of FPC decisions. House Members See Payola Involvement WASHINGTON (AP) Three House members said today they have little or no doubt that Dick Clark is involved in payola. Clark, a network TV disc jockey, says he has not taken undercover payments or favors for promoting records. A witness testified Wednesday that Clark had received $31,575 for advising a record firm on what tunes would sell well. He also said Clark was allowed to buy a one fourth interest in a Philadelphia record firm for $125 an interest he said Clark sold last year for about $15,000. Rep. John E. Moss (D-Fla), a member of the House subcommit tee which is looking into broad casting practices, said today "it appears Clark took a very profit able form of payola." Clark, a favorite of many teen agers, is due to appear Friday before the House Legislative Over sight subcommittee. But his name has come up often during two nays of reopened hearings on under- i cover influences that may control the kind of music heard on the nation's airwaves. I Reos. John B. Bennett (R-Mich) and Peter F. Mack (D-lll) agreed largely with Moss' comment to a newsman. Distribution Hearings Set On School Support PORTLAND (AP) The Legis lative Interim Committee on Edu cation will open a two-day hear ing here Friday.
