(Koop's Modern Photography) Belgians May Be In Revolution, But Everything Stops For Lunch BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP)-"In Belgium," said one of the strike beset country's citizens, "no revo lutions start after lunchtime." That comment is borne out by the current Socialist demonstra tions against the government's proposed austerity program of higher taxes and lower social benefits. This capital city has erupted in violence three times in the past week. Angry men have marched through the stately boulevards, shouting ' "to the gallows" with Prime Minister Gaston Eyskens. Enough plate glass to fill the windows of 20 American main streets has been smashed. Saber-wielding mounted police- Eric Carlson Gets Civil Service Post SALEM (AP) Establishment of a new operation to aid cities and counties who want to estab lish a civil service system for employes was announced Tues day by the- stale Civil Service Commission. Director Melvin H. Cleveland of the commission said the serv ice was set up at the request of four counties and will continue as long as it is needed, j Cleveland said Eric L. Carlson, j personnel officer of the stale Taxj Commission, has been loaned to the commission to head the pro- j gram. I Under Oregon law, the service j can be provided by the commis- sum but the law requires that! the local governments pay for it. Cleveland said no state funds can go into it. Carlson was a member of the commission staff 4'4 years prior to joining the tax commission staff. Carlson said the need for the program grew out of the voter approval of civil service meas ures in Clackamas, Marion, Washington and Columbia conn-! ties. He said Polk County voters approved a similar measure but as yet has not asked for state j help. .The counties asked the state to; develop a complete civil service j study that will include rules, a classification plan, and assistance in developing examinations. The county laws passed Nov. 8 require that the plans be im-i plenienled by April l. Local News men twice charged noisy mobs of demonstrators. Last Thursday, 15,000 strikers surged through the streets of this beautiful city. They hurled brick bats, stones, and steel nuts and bolts at hundreds of plate glass windows. About noon the demonstration dispersed and everybody went home to lunch. A conservative newspaper said most of them drove away in their own. automo biles. The next day 5.000 or so charged through the streets. Many of them knocked off when the clock on the ancient town hall sounded the hour for feeding. Several thousand hadn't had enough. They surged up to the Sabena Airlines terminal and be gan peging away at the inviting plate glass windows. Police charged. A man was shot and fatally wounded by a bystander who said he got excited. The demonstration suddenly col lapsed, and again everyone seemed to go home to lunch. A few hours later the cafes and bars near the scene of gunshot, blood and police saber charges were full of music and dancing couples. Nobody ever conies back for battle after the midday meal. "We're the bourgeoise of the world." said, one young man. "Examine our history. We revolt ed against the Dutch in 1830 but it was in broad daylight. And I'll bet you it was before lunch." Ike Hears Prayer For His Successor WASHINGTON (AP) Presi dent Eisenhower sat with bowed head today as his pastor prayed that President-elect John F. Ken nedy be given "wisdom and strength" for the problems of his administration. The President, Vice President Richard M. Nixon, administration leaders and many senators and representatives attended the spe cial service of Intercession and Holy Communion held each year on the day Congress convenes. Kennedy is in Palm Beach. Fla. Dr. Edward L. R. Elson, pastor of the host National Presbyterian church, in his prayer for the Pres ident, said, "in the days to come let him see the fruition of his labors for justice and peace." Then, Dr. Elson prayed that Kennedy, who will succeed Eisen hower in 17 days, be granted "wis dom and strength" and "a high vision, soundness of judgment, moral courage and a sanctified stewardship of office."

Probe Starts On Air Crash NEW YORK (AP) A Civil Aeronautics Board inquiry was told today 'that seven 'witnesses reported seeing the collision of a United Air Lines jet and a Trans World Airlines Super Constellation here on Dec. 16 and that neither plane appeared to be taking evasive action. A report was read by George R. Baker, CAB air safety investi gator, at the start of a CAB hearing into the plane collision over Staten Island that killed all 128 persons aboard the two planes and eight on the ground. Baker's report summarized in terviews with 125 persons. The witnesses said both aircraft ap peared to be in low-level llight and most of them reported that the UAL plane appeared to con tact the right side of the TWA ship. "The DC8 then appeared to continue straight on with no change of direction," the report added. Except for the few witnesses who saw the two planes prior to the collision, the report said, most of them were attracted to the scene by the noise of the impact. The report said most witnesses described the collision sound as being similar to that of a "jet breaking the sound barrier" and some said it was a grinding or crunching sound. The report said that the Constel lation '"pitched up and the tail came off" following the collision and fire was seerr to engulf the fuselage around the wing section. Mo,sl witnesses agreed that there was no explosion. Baker's report was described as having been gathered by CAB investigators and also by officials of the two airlines involved in the crash, all of whom acted jointly. The CAB has said the inquiry, being held in a ballroom of a Brooklyn hotel, will be "one of the bigest ever." Scores of wit nesses are on call. Not one crew member, not one passenger survived the fiery crash of a United Airlines DC8 jet car rying 84 persons and a Trans World Airlines Sunerconstellalion propeller plane with 44. The jet was headed for Idlewild Airport from Chicago; the Super-Constellation was bound for La Guardia Field from Dayton and Columbus, Ohio. The propeller plane crashed in Staten Island. No one besides its occupants was killed. The jet plunged into downtown Brooklyn about a mile and a half from the scene of the inquiry. Eight per sons were killed and many others injured on the ground. E. R. Quesada. administrator of the Federal Aviation Agency, has maintained that the people who manage air traffic patterns do not let the New York area's flying space get "inherently dangerous." In that ease, then by what deadly combination of circumstances did the two piano collide when they were scheduled to stay miles apart? Was it a failure of equipment, of a single man, of several men, or want of clear-cut rules govern ing approach speeds and circling style? Investigators re-flew the jet's approach three times last week fur hints, aided by readings from an automatic flight recorder taken from the wrecked plane. The readings are expected to be made public at the hearing, along with the findings of a score of teams of crash sleuths. The city's radio station. WNYC, plans to broadcast the entire hear ing, and other radio and television stations will cover highlights of the proceedings. line's only gateway into the key San Francisco and Bay area markets. Only Gateway The Western Pacific connects with the Santa Fe at Stockton, Calif. Through this link, the spokesman said, Great Northern receives important traffic origi nating on the Santa Fe in heavily industrialized Southern California. Great Northern said in its pe titions it may apply later for au thority to control Western Pa cific "jointly with other carriers, or to acquire ownership or tack age rights over the portion of Western Pacific main line ex tending from Bieber to Oakland and San Francisco. Action Gratifying . Ernest S. Marsh, president of the Santa Fe, called the Great Northern action gratifying and said: "The Great Northern has a sub stantial interest in the Santa Fe aim of perpetuating the Western Pacific's connection over the Bie ber route 'and we believe the Great Northern is right in appre hending that the continued exist ence of the Bieber line would be placed in jeopardy if the Western Pacific ever went under control of the Southern Pacific which al ready owns the only competing line." " , The Great Northern reported to the ICC that as of Dec. 28 it owned 156,100 shares of Western Pacific common stock, or nearly 10 per cent of the outstanding shares. This ownership, the spokesman said, will be used to give weight to Great Northern's position as an intervenor. Even Exchange Santa Fe has announced ac quisition of 20 per cent of West ern Pacific's outstanding com mon shares. Southern Pacific said it has about 10 per cent. Santa Fc has offered to exchange V shares of its stock tor eacn way. 'The Great Northern s support of the Santa Fe-W.P. proposal should be of great assistance to the ICC as convincing evidence of. the importance of maintaining dynamic rail eompctition in t h e public interest."

Dimick Sets Talk At School State Sen. Dan Dimick, Douglas Cniiniv. will be the featured speak er Thursday night at 7:30 p.m. at IIib romhined PTA sponsored meet ing of the Joseph Lane and Central Junior Hign schools' "Ugms on ,iur Education." Sen Dimick will ex plain and discuss issues pertaining to education wnicn will come De fore the Oregon Stale Legislature which is to convene Jan. 9 in Sa lem. Following his talk there will be a question and answer period. "The program is part of a state wide project to focus attention on many of the vital education and youth measures to be considered in this forthcoming legislature. The program is being sponsored by the Oregon Congress of Parents and Teachers. Oregon School Boards Association and Oregon Education i Association. It is hoped that every-1 one interested in education will at-j tend one of these meetings," said Mrs. Wilbur Walters. Joseph Lane1 Junior High School PTA publicity chairman. i Police later found Miss Trussell's nude body in her bedroom. Her father said it "looked like a slaughterhouse. The coroner s office said the girl died from multiple stab wounds of the chest, throat and abdomen. Capt. Myron Weysham, homi cide division chief, said the killer probably was scratched on the tacc or neck and cut on the right thumb. Police questioned three Negroes picked up near tire scene. Lynn Bulliard, 25, cousin of Miss Trussell, said she dropped by to wish her a happy birthday and saw her strugling with a Negro. She said she was no more than 10 feet from the death strugle. A TV set was knocked down and a heater pulled from the wall. "Part of her. clothes were off and she was lying on the floor," Miss Bulliard said. "I didn't know what to do. I don't think he oven saw me there was so much noise. I ran down the stairs and out to Allen." Allen Hothbart of New York had accompanied Miss Bulliard and waited outside. He said he saw the assailant flee on a bicycle, carrying a bundlo of clothing under his arm. Boivin, who is expected to be elected president of the Senate, took the same position as that al ready taken by Secretary of State Howell Appling and state Treasur er Howard Belton in opposition to the Hatfield proposal. " Both Belton and Appling, who with Hatfield form the hoard, have opposed abolishing it. All three are Republicans. "I have voted consistently against abolishing the Board of Control since I have been in the Senate," Boivin said, "and I haven't changed my mind." He said that in his opinion the reasons for retaininj the board outweigh those for abolishing it. He said that he felt the three man board is in a better position to supervise t he state's iustitu ions than one man would be. The governor's proposal would split up the institutions, putting mem der various departments of sta government. Boivin already has moved into the office of the Senate president. He said he did not anticipate the need for any further move, a clear indication of his confidence that he will be elected to the post. Boivin is opposed by Sen. Alfred Corbett, D-Portland, who has the itafe support of the Democratic Party machine. Boivin is expected to be elected by a coalition of Republi can and Democratic voles. Boivin said he will announce the names of committee heads Monday. He said lie is consider ing a plan to put all state gov ernment reorganization proposals into the hands of one committee, but said he would not comment further on this now.
