Macapagal's Victory
Seems Apparent Today
MANILA (AP)-Vice President
Piosdado Macapagal piled up an
apparently insurmountable lead
today in the Philippine presiden
tial election and exultantly pro
claimed, "We made it!"
With more than 60 per cent of
the estimated seven million votes
counted, unofficial returns gave
Macapagal 2.695,110 to 2.031,667
(or President Carlos P. Garcia.
Macapagal told newsmen, "The
lead is such that any attempt to
alter the results will fail." But he
laid that he would not issue a vic
tory statement until Garcia con
cedes "in accordance with the
Usual practice."
Garcia, studying returns at his
home on Bohol Island in the south
central Philippines, sent word he
was not conceding yet But it
seemed all but impossible for him
to overtake Macapagal's lead.'
Macapagal needed to take only
bout 800,000 more votes to win

State Sen. Al Flegel of Roseburg

scheduled as part of a state-wide
study to "acquaint the committee

procedures.
Flegel said all school districts of
the county have been asked to pre
sent statements to the committee.
County-wide school organizations
have also been asked to send rep
resentatives. Flegel said one of the subjects
to be studied by the committee is
whether or not school superintend
ent's offices can be consolidated
to serve more than one county un
der a single office.

Bios Rocket
Hits Coast
POINT ARGUELLO. Calif.
f AP) A 62-foot rocket carrying
bits of living matter toward, uie
earth's dangerous radiation belt
came apart in the air today and
the first stage impacted the coast.
The Navy said the impact area
was seven miles south of the
launch pad, about a half mile in
land from a Coast Guard station.
There was no damage to proper
ty. .
The other three stages and a
capsule containing 38 experi
ments apparently fell in the sea
but their path was hidden by-fog
The capsule was crammed with
bits of living matter including
fresh-drawn human blood.
The 88-pound package also in
cluded a device designed to cap
ture and bring back to earth for
the first time tiny bits of space
dust known as micrometeoroids.
Plans called for the capsule
code-named BIOS for Biological
Investigations of Space to shoot
1,165 miles into space and then
parachute into the ocean 1,300
miles west of here.
U.S. space agency scientists
expected the experiment to tell
them how badly space radiation
can damage living cells, and
whether weightlessness has any
effect on two basic life functions:
eating and reproduction.
The 17-by-19-inch capsule, con
taining 38 small parcels, was car
ried on the nose of a 62 foot-tall,
four-stage solid-propellant Argo
D8 rocket.

Kennedy Pledges
Help In The Event
Of Korean Attack
WASHINGTON (AP) South
Korea's Gen. Chung Hee Park
has President Kennedy's promise
of U.S. aid "including the use of
armed forces if there is a renewal
of armed attack."
Kennedy assured Park that the
United Slates would continue to
extend all possible economic aid
and cooperation for the further
development of the nation for
which U.S. troops fought a decade
ago.
The pledge was also official ap
proval for Park's military re
gime, which overthrew the Un
supported government six months
ago.
The approval came Tuesday to
a joint communique alter Ken
nedy and Park held two meetings
lasting about three hours.
The 44-year-old Korean leaner
was to confer today with three of
Kennedy's Cabinet members
Secretary of Agriculture Orville
L. Freeman. Secretary of Defense
Robert S. McNamara and Secre
tary of Commerce Luther a.
Hodges.
The unsmiling Korean accom
plished a double goal in his talks
with Kennedy.
For the first time the President
publicly declared "gratification at
the many indications oi progress
being made by Park's junta after
it seized power last May 16 and
ousted an elected government.
In addition. Kennedy pledged
the U.S. government to "extent
all possible economic aid and co-
aDeration to the Republic of Ko
rea in order to turtner long-range
economic development.
Korean sources said that work
ing groups of Korean and U.a.
officials would consider detailed
plans later.
'Some Korean officials indicated
thev were disappointed that Ken
nedy had not committed the Unit
ed States to a specific sum of
money to back the new soutn Ko
rean five-year economic develop
ment plan.
During their conversation, the
communique said, Kennedy ex
pressed his satisfaction with
Park's promise to restore the
government to civilian control as
soon as possible.
Tenmile Residence
Destroyed In Blaze
Fire completely destroyed a
home and all its furnishings this
morning at Tenmile, according to
Mrs. Walter Coates, News-Review
correspondent.
The home, owned by William
Magness of Dixonville, was being
ren led bv Mr. and Mrs. Floyd
Scott. The furnishings were also
owned by Magness.
Mr. and Mrs. Scott apparently
were able to save only some cloth
ing, bedding and s cedar chest be
fore the blaze enveloped the house.
Fire equipment from Tenmile was
summoned but the fire was already
out of control by the time Dee
Farmer, Tenmile fire warden, ar
rived with the equipment.
Magness said his loss is partial
ly covered by insurance. Persons
fighting the fire speculated the
blaze started from the flue. The
home was of log construction.

ROSEBURG, OREGON
West To Oppose
Asian-African
Congo Demand
UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (AP)
An Asian-African demand for
use of force to drive foreign mer
cenaries out of the Congo's Ka
tanga Province was expected to
run into strong Western opposition
today.
The Security Council meets this
afternoon to take up a resolution
by Ceylon, Liberia and the United
Arab Republic that would author
ize acting Secretary-General U
Thant to use force if necessary
to expel foreign fighting men
hired by Katanga President Moise
Tshombe's secessionist regime.
A new African outburst against
Tshombe also was certain in the
wake of a U.N. investigating com
mittee's suggestion that former
Congo Premier Patrice Lumumba
was murdered last January, prob
ably in the presence of high Ka
tanga officials.
Britain and trance were sched
uled to take the floor at the out
set of today's debate. They have
reportedly joined tne united
States in opposing any council ac
tion that would direct U.N. forces
to join the Congo army in an of
fensive against Katanga.
U.S. Uroos Negotiations
The West is seeking adoption of
a milder resolution reaitirming
support of the U.N. Congo com
mand and urging negotiations to
end the Katanga secession.
Informed sources said U Thant
is also against the use of force
as a matter of principle and
strongly favors using conciliation
to deal with the crisis.
The three-nation resolution as
sailed Tshombe's insurgent stand
and rapped his regime for taking
armed action when U.N. forces
seized key points in South Katan
ga last September. The resolution
called on U Thant to take neces
sary steps to prevent entry or re
turn of mercenaries to Katanga
and to stop the flow of arms to
Tshombe's forces.
Congo Foreign Minister Justin
Bomboko demanded here that the
Belgian government close down
its consulate in the Katanga capi
tal of Elisabethville. He warned
that henceforth his government
would consider all consulate staff
members as mercenaries serving
Tshombe.

KroK's Future
Up To Adenauer
WASHINGTON (AP) U. S.
officials said today the future of
Hans Kroll as West German am
bassador to Moscow is strictly up
to Chancellor Konrad Adenauer.
State Department authorities are
known to have been annoyed by
what they consider Kroll's "free
wheeling diplomacy" during a dis
cussion of the Berlin crisis with
Soviet Premier Khrushchev in
Moscow last Thursday. But offi
cials said it would be improper
for Americans to suggest that
Kroll be transferred to another as
signment. .
The Soviet news agency Tass
was quoted in a dispatch from
Moscow Tuesday night as saying
the West German government was
ready to sacrifice Kroll in order
to satisfy Washington. But author
ities here said there was no un
certainty in Washington about the
West German government's basic
views on the need for a coordinat
ed Western approach to the Soviet
Union in dealing with the Berlin
dispute.
Kroll was summoned back to
Bonn by Adenauer and a state
ment Issued there said that the
Berlin settlement proposals which
he outlined to Khmshchev were
his own personal ideas and were
not authorized by the west Ger
man aovernment.
According to information made
available here. Kroll advised U.S.
Ambassador Llewellyn Thomp
son and the British and French
envoys in Moscow, following his
meeting with Khrushchev, that he
had advanced a number of sug
gestions for a Berlin settlement.
He said Khrushchev solicited his
ideas as to how the crisis might
be ended.
