Oregon's Presidential Primary Assumes Importance To Demos By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS 'from another angle: "The Ken- Oregon s May 20 presidential : neay organisation in uregon primarv took on new importance to the bemocrats today. With Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D Minnt out the rare and Sen. John F. Ken nedy (D Mass) walking in seven league boots, it could be all im portant. For Kennedy it is the next big lest and his only primary test against two other Democratic sen ators: Lyndon Johnson of Texas and Stuart Symington of Missouri. All three, plus Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore) and Humphrey are on Oregon's Democratic ballot. "West Virginia has tonight giv en me a major boost toward the Democratic nomination for Presi dent," Kennedy said Tuesday night as his margin over Humph rey continued to widen. Humph rey asserted: "I am no longer candidate for the Dcmoc r a 1 1 c presidential nomination." A Kennedy theme already was being sounded in the slate, by Hep. John F. Shelley, a California Democrat from San Francisco and a former official of the Teamsters Union. Shelley once was billed as a candidate lor Teamster J'rcsi dent against James lloffa. Shelley put it this way: He has high regard for hen. JUorse as a senator but he does not consider him serious opposition to Kennedy, For Morse, West Virginia "simp ly shows what an expenditure of huge sums or money sometimes succeeds in doing 'in a primary campaign. "However." Sen. Morse assert ed," Humphrey did not take to the people of West Virginia the reactionary voting record of the junior senator from Massachu setts. I am doing this in Ore gon...." Morse said he was confident Oregon voters would see it his way and he teed off on Kennedy TRIES SOVIET AUTO AP reporter Francis Stilley waves from behind wheel of a Rus sian car called a Moskvitch at Seventh Avenue and West 48th Street in Manhattan.

The home at the corner of the disposal of the Lillie Lea Moore property in Roseburg i'or several years has been approved by the House of Representatives Government Activities Subcommit tee. It now goes to the full Govern ment Operations Committee. The bill was introduced Jan. 7, 1959, by Rep. Charles 0. Porter. It amends the Surplus property act of i44 by eliminating the require ment that property conveyed for historic monument purposes must have been acquired by the United States on or before Jan. 1, 1900. Chairman Happy Subcommittee Chairman Jack Brooks (D-Tcxas) said he was happy about the decision because he has long been interested in sites of historic interest in the West. Chairman Brooks observed that the date requirement had made il impossible for a historic building in Roseburg to become a federal tends to remain in effect after the primary and lake over the Dem ocratic Party of Oregon." He said he was approached early in the fall and warned to remain neutral or the Kennedy group would op pose his re-election. "On the contrary the Morse campaign will strengthen the li- gilimale Democratic Party or ganization and wul oppose the millionaire carpet bagger from Massachusetts," Morse announced. For the Oregon Humphrey or ganization, the feeling was ex pressed by Anne Chambers, exe cutive secretary of Democrats for Humphrey: "We may have lost a candidate we believe very strong ly in, but I think it is all for the best. Thousands of people have heard him, and 1 think every one of them was impressed by his integrity and fairneVss." Another question remained too: Would Johnson and Symington re main on the sidelines as announc ed for the Oregon primary and let Morse fight it out with Kennedy? Or would either one of llieiii come forward and fight Oregon could become the field of contest for Ihose who would have the nominal ion and for those who would slop Kennedy, whatever their reasons. Or it could lengthen the Kennedy stride. DECORATED The U. S.S.R. Supreme Soviet Presidium has announced in Moscow that the officers and enlisted men who took part in downing on American plane over Rus sian territory were awarded the Order of the Red Banner. Three of the officers who re ceived the medals are, left to right: Senior Lt. S. I. Safronov; Capt. 'K. I. Sheludke and Maj. M. P. Boroneb. Rosellini Announces Development Topic OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) Eco nomic development and the role of reclamation will be his theme for the Western Governors' Confer ence in Seattle May 15-18, Gov. Albert D. Rosellini said Tuesday. Rosellini said he would attempt to gain support for a concerted program for more reclamation projects in the West. "The misapprehension that any extension of irrigation will com pound the nation's agricultural difficulties is not borne out by the facts, either past or present," Rosellini said. "Irrigated agriculture forms the backbone of the economy of large areas of the West," he said. An aerial tour of the Columbia Basin and Yakima Valley farm areas is on the governors' agenda for next Tuesday, following a morning session on economic development. SE Washington Ave. and Rose St had been willed to the government by Miss Moore. Brooks said. "I believe removal of the acquisition date will make it possible to preserve our Ameri can heritage and not lose import ant and significant historical sites as the Roseburg people did." Brooks and Porter said the leg isalion will provide suitable safe guards "to prevent wholesale or indiscriminate transfers." II pro vides specifically that surplus prop erty may be transferred to t h e slates only in conformity with the recommendation of the De partment of Interior's advisory board on national, parks, historic sites, buildings and monuments. Board Decides That board passes on the suit ability and desirability of the con veyance. Porter added. He said the conveyance can be made only with the approval of the General Services Administration. The Lillie Moore property was the center of legal and political skirmishes for several years. It was finally sold by the GSA to businesses. The house was torn down after it was determined il couldn't be moved to a proposed site at the Douglas County Fair grounds, lt was more than 100 years old. The property on which the house stood is now a parking lot. WASHINGTON (AP) pre,j. dent Eisenhower has extended for two years the term of Lt. Gen. E. C. Itschner as chief of the Army Engineers, Sen. Magnuson (D-Wash) said here. The general had been scheduled to retire Sept. 30. Magnuson said he had learned the President acted on the rec. ommendation of the Joint Chiefs of Slaff, the secretary of defense and secretary of the Army. Gen. Itschner, who formerly was Nuith Tacific division engineer at Portland, Ore., has headed the corps since Oct. 1, 1956.

The problem was to build a miles-long power line down the steep hills above the Columbia Hiver to the John Day Dam site here, 105 miles east of Portland. The job had to be finished by to day. Wilson said it would have been costly and would have taken days1 to build a truck road there. So he got pilot Wes hematta and his helicopter. j A ground crew dug the hole, ' and J.ciiialla picked up the 32 poles, one at a time, and put them in place in five hours, it took an other three hours to slnnu the I wirp TIip erniinrl crew had In run BAl.TIMOltE (AIM - Ahont all In Lotm nn u-ith him Tin mh uac the Democratic organizations m finished hours ahead of the dcad- iiaryianu arc s n u o n i n K ten. , line Wayne Jlorse (D-Orc).
