But the United States, though
sending warships and planes to

away from earlier statements by
naval spokesmen that the Santa
Maria would be boarded and
taken in U.S. charge and her cap
tors treated as pirates.
No Boarding Instructions
President Kennedy told a Wash
ington news conference Wednes
day night that the U.S. Navy "has
not been given instructions to con
duct boarding operations," but
only to accompany the liner.
"There are Americans involved
and their lives are involved, he
said, adding that the United States
was also concerned because the
Santa Maria belonged to a friend

quarters in San Juan, said the
Navy's "Prime consideration now
is the safety and welfare of the
crew and passengers." As to fu
ture action, search officials would
only say that they awaited or
ders from a higher level. The
idea appeared to be to get a Navy
surface ship in range of the liner,
then get orders from Washington
depending on the situation.
After Krauss, flying a P2V Nep
tune, located the Santa 'Maria, the
Navy made arrangements to keep
the fugitive ship under constant
surveillance." A Brazil-based, long
range Constellation was sent out
with orders to "track and report
position" of the liner.

The U.S. destroyers Damalo

mission.
Commission Planned
The commission would consist
of three senators, three repre
sentatives, three members of the
state Bar, four ex-governors, and
four public members.
Pearson said there should be
strong emphasis against permit
ting special interest groups from
being represented.
House Speaker Robert B. Dun
can, D-Medford, said the public
should get more representation
on the commission than present
office holders. He added that "it
looks like- Sen. Pearson and I
aren't very far apart."
Most legislators agree that the
Constitution has been patched up
so many times that an entirely
new one is needed.
Advocate Convention'
Gov. Mark O. Hatfield and his
predecessor, Robert D. Holmes,
had advocated that a constitution
al convention be held. But the
legislature would not buy that,
agreeing to keep that power for
itself. The people agreed with the
legislature.
Pearson and Sen. Boyd Over-
hulse, D-Madras, tossed a bomb
shell in the form of a bill to re
duce the 6-cent a gallon state gas
oline tax to five cents.
'The Highway Commission gels
enough federal aid to build the
roads we need, and we should re
duce Its revenues so that it can
take another long look to see if
all of these new roads are neces
sary," Pearson said.
No Gas Tax Increase
The commission said It would
not ask for a gasoline tax increase
this time. But it certainly will op
pose the move to reduce it.
Hep. lloocrt L. Klfstrom. R-Sa-
lem. introduced his bill to use $10
million of the surplus to pay off
state bonds. The effect would be
to trim Hatfield's $259' million
budget by that amount.
The measure, supported bv a
majority of the House Republi
cans, is strongly opposed by the
governor.
Sen. Andrew J. Naterlin. D-
Newport, sponsored a bill to in
crease the number of members
of the state Board of Health from
nine to 10. The additional mem
ber would be an optometrist.

capacity problem, Supt. Deller said
