2 The Newi-Review, Roseburg, Wtr- Gromyko Meet Fails To Solve GENEVA (AP)-U. S. Secreta ry of State Dean Rusk and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko met today but (ailed to solve their dispute over how Laos should be represented in the international conference on the future of the Southeast Asian kingdom. The issue of Laotian represen tation kept the conference from starting on schedule Friday. In his first try at personal diplomacy with the Soviets, Busk conferred with Gromyko in a Soviet hillside mansion to try to end the dispute. U.S. Refusal Demand Rusk told newsmen after his meeting that the United States would not accept the Soviet de mand for full and equal status for the Communist-led Pathet Lao at the conference table. "This represents an injection of a new idea by the Soviet Union," Rusk said. "This was not the basis on which we were invited to the conference." Rusk and Gromyko were togeth er at the tree-shaded Soviet man sion for 70 minutes. The American decided to call on the Soviet for eign minister to explore ways of breaking the deadlock, a move en couraged by other Western lead ers. Harriman Arrives Meanwhile, five members of the Western-backed Laotian govern ment delegation reached' Geneva. W. Avercll Harriman, President Kennedy's roving ambassador, Kasavubu In Move To Place Katanga Under Congo Rule LEOPOLDV1LLE, the Congo (AP) President Joseph Kasavubu today called Parliament back into session to help resolve the politi cat chaos that has split the nation since its founding. It is expected to meet In a few weeks. . "After nearly 10 months of con fusion, misery and all kinds of privation, the president said in an address, "each of us will have taken note of the need for stable social order based on the princi ples of public morality and legal ity" :. The call for Parliament to meet represented an attempt to bring Katanga back under control of the central government, now that Ka tanga President Moise Tshombe has been arrested on treason charges. He has proclaimed his province an independent nation. It remains to be seen whether Katanga's deputies will desert Tshombe and attend the parlia mentary session. Kasavubu asked for United Na tions protection for the parlia mentarians and their families, and for U. N. travel facilities to bring the members to Leopold villc. He called the first session to open immediately after the con clusion of ' the present political conference In Coquilhatville, prob ably this month. "The moment is very grave," Kasavuhu said in a formal ad- Older Children Slated For Summer Work Plan Beginning June 12, children from 14 to 18 will receive no. aid to de pendent children ,or monies from the general assistance fund of the County Welfare Commission. Jack Summerficld, welfare co ordinator, said that this year, as in the past year, these children will be considered a part of the summer work program. Tho pro grain ends Aug. 30. The children aro expected to meet their needs through their own employment during this period, Summerficld said. . If illness or special needs oc cur, it is possible on an exception basis for sonic of the children to be left on grants, he said. This program will affect between 75 and 100 children, Summerficld estimated.

Sar., Moy 13, 1961 Dispute Over Laos met them and Rusk arranged a prompt conference with them. Pathet Lao and neutralist delega tions, the other two factions in volved, already are at Geneva. Their arrival was one of a fast moving scries of developments. After the conference in the So viet Embassy, Gromyko told newsmen: "We discussed ques tions of opening the conference without going into details. We reached no conclusion." Rusk said "No progress has been made yet" in breaking the deadlock. The American secretary of state said he would now have to consult other delegations "as to where we go from here." U.S. Delegates Ready Rusk stressed that the United States delegation is ready to take its place at the conference table on 10 minutes' notice once the representation issue is settled. Some delegates are saying it may be no use to hold the 14 natinn meeting at all. But the round of talks continued as dele gation leaders sought some loop hole. Foreign Secretary Lord Home, playing the British role of peace maker, saw V. K. Krishna Menon, India's defense minister, and later Rusk and Maurice Couve de Mur- ville, the French foreign minister. MMtt With Miu Uusk arrived for the meeting with Home from another with dress in Coquilhatville. "Every one has the duty to collaborate in the work of reconstruction. I hope the convocation of the par liament will bring not merely a return to legality but a full new lease of life for our population." By recalling the parliament Kasavubu effectively challenged the rebellious Lumumbist regime in Stanleyville to come to terms with the central government. Rebel leader Antoine Gizenga has always insisted that only parliament could designate a le gal government, Gizenga look over the leader ship among followers of ex-Premier Patrice Lumumba, slain dur ing captivity early this year, and set up a rump regime in Stanley ville to continue the fight for a rigid central government. Good Intentions End In Unusual Accident Good intentions sometimes bring disastrous results as A. F. New man, 925 NE Cedar St., found Fri day afternoon. Newman, retired and near 70, according to police, had gone to a grocery markot, 1019 SE Cass Ave. with his daughter, Audrey Z. New man, of the same address, in her car, a sedan. ' While she was inside the market. he decided to move the car closer to the store door to make it a little easier for his daughter. After put ting the car in gear, his foot slip ped from the brake to the gas pedal and the car shot forward, jumping a high curb next to a pri vate drive. Unfortunately, Tom L. Miller, 885 NE Cedar St., had his sedan parked in tho drive. The Newman car landed on the Miller ear dam aging its left rear section and hlowing out the Miller car's right rear tire. Tho Newman car was not damaged. No estimate of damage was made. Off-Duty Rural Fireman Quelches Pickup Blaze Norman Sallee, 1109 NW High land, sitting in a coffee shop near McKay's market early Friday night, noticed snioke coming from the inside of a pickup parked in the market lot. A member of the Rural Fire De partment, he investigated the smoke, found that the truck's seat was on firo and called the depart ment. Then he put the tire out himself. When department trucks arriv ed, Karl Peering, Rt. 1, Box 992. Roseburg, truck owner, was begin ning to add up his damages, which amounted to $25. Cause of the (ire is unknown.

"I expect I will be circulating around quite a bit today," Rusk said. Lord Home told reporters as he came in: "We are just going along. We just keep talking." Some one asked Couve de Mur ville if any progress was being made. "I don't know," he said. "It's not going very fast." It was re ported diplomats of Communist nations here for the conference also were holding a series of con ferences and talks.

Beginning Monday, area veterin arians will begin the inoculation program. Donnelly has ordered 6,- 000 doses.

Coburg Man Exonerated By Jury On Charge Of Horse Stealing , The Douglas County Grand Jury Friday returned one secret indict ment, one not true bill and four true bills. Exonerated was Charles Finne gan, 46, of Coburg, who had been bound over to the Grand Jury from Drain Justice Court on a charge of larceny of a horse. He had been free on his own recog nizance. True Bills Returned Two true bills were returned against Inar Steen, 30, of North Bend. One charged him with non support of minor children and the other with larceny by bailee. On the latter charge he is accused of failure to return a television set owned by Fred Bcrnau, which al legedly came into Steen's posses sion May 15, 1960. Claude Yarbrough, 56, Myrtle Creek, was indicted on a charge of assault with a dangerous weap on. He is accused of pointing a .22 caliber pistol at Ernest Pcnry and threatening him on April 21.

Webb, 34, of Sunland, Calif., who was re turned to Roseburg Thursday by Deputy Sheriff Bobby Johnson. McBride waived grand jury ac tion and went before the judge on the District Attorney's informa tion. Webb was arrested on a se cret indictment of an earlier grand jury. More Oregon Towns Adopt Fast Time By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Most stores in The Dalles and Toledo decided Friday to move up clocks an hour Monday as the movement for daylight saving time in Oregon continued to spread. A majority of Toledo merchants favored advancing their hours al though all of them are not ex pected to go along. The mixed pat tern along the coast prevailed in Toledo. Standard time will con tinue in schools. The City Council will let various municipal depart ments set their hours. - On the other hand the City Coun cil of Sheridan, in the Willamette Valley, voted to resist the swing and remain on standard time. Before adjourning the Legisla ture authorized Multnomah and contiguous counties to change to daylight saving. Contiguous usually means touch ing in actual contact. But it also means neighboring but not in actual contact. This could open the way for a legal opinion that other counties which are near, ,but not bordering, also might go on daylight saving time. Some areas have moved up clocks without awaiting legal opin ions. Merchants there said they can set clocks as they choose, and that the law affects only govern mental subdivisions county courthouses, city halls, etc. No penalty for violation is pro vided by law. But in legal circles there has been speculation that a public official who ordered use of daylight time could be prosecuted for malfeasance in office.

Algerian Troops Ready For Riot ALGIERS (AP)-Algiers today swarmed with troops under orders to shoot if necessary to stop any rioting by diehard rightist Euro pean settlers on the anniversary of the 1958 coup against the trench government. Public transport moved normal ly and shops opened on time, but merchants stood by warily, ready to clang down the shutters at the first sign of trouble. Some 20,000 troops, riot police and gendarmes were massed around Algiers, ready to smash threatened strikes and demonstra tions to mark the right-wing ris ing that brought Gen. Charles de Gaulle back to power. Long columns of police vans moved into the heart of the city shortly before the 10 p.m. curfew Friday night, while troops took positions around government build ings. Warships of the French Medi terranean fleet rode at anchor in the harbor. European extremists opposing Algeria's evolution toward inde pendence have been threatening armed action for two weeks. Police informants said some 6, 000 armed men, members of the "secret army organization," have been alerted for a possible move on the city. Apparently the aim of the organ ization is to occupy large portions of Algiers, build barricades around those positions and then challenge the troops to attack. The extrem ists hope for the complicity of a large number of the city's Euro pean population. By entrenching themselves in Al giers, the . Europeans apparently hoped to force the government to recognize them as a bargaining power on the same level as the Moslem nationalist rebels. A similar attempt collapsed In January, 1960. The settler force of some 4.000 men disintegrated then after eight days in a barricaded stronghold in the heart of the city. This time, authorities are not taking any chances. Welfare Departm't Hires Case Worker Jack Summerfield, welfare co ordinator, today said that the wel fare commission has hired a new case worker, John Foust, 24, a recent graduate of Southern Ore gon College. Foust will replace Miss Donna Robinson, who resigned April 30. Miss Robinson is planning to re turn to Portland, where her family resides. Foust's tenure officially began Wednesday. He is a native of south ern Oregon. He grew up in Med ford. Summerfield said that Foust will spend four weeks in the welfare training center, Oregon City, then he will join the staff in Douglas County. His wife, currently the secretary to the manager of the Ashland Shakespearean Festival, and their two children will join him here in late summer.

Johnson told the Phil ippines Congress today free na tions "must together show our de termination to keep our freedom" in the face of Communist threats. The vice president, barnstorm ing Asian hot spots for President Kennedy, appeared at the Univer sity of the Philippines and then dashed across Manila by helicop ter to make this pledge before a joint session of Congress: "America will honor her com mitments to the cause of freedom throughout the community of free nations. "Our friends can count on America, and we know we can count on our friends none more than our old and cherished friends, the Filipino people." A packed chamber listened as Johnson warned: "Communism is testing our good will by many tactics in many places." He cited Cuba as a place where "a demagogue has turned a peo ple's dream of a better life into a nightmare of Communist dictator ship." In South Viet Nam, which John- State Leaders Pay Homage To Tugman "His monuments are every where." This was, the eulogy Friday by the minister of the St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Gardiner of the deeds of William Tugman. for mer editor of the Eugene Register Guard and Port I'mpqua Courier. Tugman died after suffering a heart attack last weekend. Some 100 people, including sev eral of the state's dignitaries.; jammed into the tiny church on. the hill overlooking a humming lumber mill. Among those present for the simple ceremony were some of the state's editors, who knew him as editor of the Register-Guard for 27 years and own er of the Port I'mpqua Courier until lj months ago. Also attending were members of the state Highway Department and commission, who worked with him m chairman of the commis-j sion's advisory board, and former governor, Charles A. Sprague of I Salem. I Coming out from Washington. I D. C, for the funeral was I'. S. j Rep. Edwin Vlurno. who had picked i Tugman as his 4th Congressional' District contact man.

In a seeming gesture of caution about the Philippines' expressed frustration with anti-Commu-; nist policy throughout Asia, John son said "unity of purpose is one thing. But it is not everything." "In a global contest there are many arenas and many tactics," he said. "Unless this is under-; stood, unity of purpose can be come an empty shell." i This was the closest the vice president came to mentioning La os, the crisis area of greatest con cern to the Philippines. i "Freedom must respond re sponsibly to clear and compelling challenges of communism wher ever and however those chal-! lenges come." he said. "Freedom must demonstrate flexibility." j The free world must display Ini-; liative, he said, and "seek new responses to express true strength of our free society." Before addressing congress, Johnson lunched with President , Carlos P. Garcia in sprawling Malacanang Palace. Garcia is the second chief of stale Johnson has met in his tour aimed at helping stem the Communist tide in South east Asia. Johnson displayed a touch of Texas informality during the mo torcade ride from International Airport the same informality that won him a wave of friendliness in South Viet Nam.
