    Ground-Breaking Set
For Church Sunday
A special ground breaking serv
ice for a new sanctuary is sched
uled Easter Sunday at the Church
of the Open Bible, 1643 SE Jack
son St. at 3 p.m.
The Rev. H. C. Klapstein, divis
ional superintendent, will be offi
ciating. The following week, exca
vation is to begin, and footings
and foundations are to be poured
soon after the first of next month.
The new sanctuary will be 103-by-40
feet of frame construction
with laminated arches and 4-by-6
foot wood decking. It will include
a modern nursery, lobby, and seat
ing for 200 to 250. There will also
be added a 22-by-42 foot wing
which will include pastor's study,
prayer room, church office and
furnace room.
The new addition will be adja
cent to the present 40-by-80 foot
facilities and will make an over
all plant of 7.500 square feet of
lloor space. The present building
will be further partitioned and
used as an educational unit and
church fellowship functions.
Rev. Novis Thompson, who has
built other churches for the Church
of the Open Bible, has been hired
to oversee construction of the build
ing. He will head up volunteer
crews from the local church. It
is also anticipated, said the Rev.
L. A. Smith Jr., pastor, that work
crews from other churches, spon
sored by the men's organization,
Men Of Vision, will take part.
Building permit for $35,000 has
been taken out with the city in
spector, but this does not represent
the actual cost. This will be dif
ficult to determine because of the
volunteer labor involved, said the
Rev. Mr. Smith.

Holy City Readies
For Easter Salute
JERUSALEM (AP) Church
bells rang joyously over Jerusa
lem's walls today as the Holy
City prepared to celebrate the
Easter resurrection of Christ.
The great doors of the Church
of the Holy Sepulchre creaked
open at dawn for the day-long
rites in its hallowed vaults to
most Christians the exact place
of Christ's crucifixion, burial and
resurrection.
In the same crumbling church,
the pageantry of Good Friday
came to a close Friday night.
Robed and bearded priests lift
ed an effigy of Christ's body from
Calvary now a richly ornament
ed chapel lit by candles and clus
ters of hanging lanterns like warm
golden icicles and withdrew the
nails from the cross.
The procession carried the body,
wrapped in a sheet, down the
winding stone staircase to the
Stone of Unction, where beneath
eight glowing lamps it was an
nointed and spiced.
A column of worshippers fol
lowed the body to its burial in the
ornate marble tomb that still re
veals some bare rock from
Christ's original sepulchre. The
services were intoned in seven
languages. '
Jerusalem is filled with more
than 6.000 visitors from all cor
ners of the globe. More pilgrims
are entering with special permit
through the no-man's land that
splits Jerusalem between Israeli
Jews and Jordanian Arabs. No
Jews are allowed to cross the
frontier, guarded by watchful
troops on both sides.
Earlier Friday, hundreds of pil
grims retraced Christ's last foot
steps from Pilate's court to Cal
vary. Bedouin tribesmen, half-
veiled women and Moslems
watched the Catholic procession
respectfully, for Christ is revered
by Moslems, as well as Christians.

Proposal
For
Impo
rts Of Canadian Lumber Favored
OLYMPIA (AP) A proposal
for an immediate temporary quo
ta on U.S. imports of Canadian
lumber, to help the ailing Pacific
Northwest industry, carried
strong support Saturday. '
A Senate Commerce Committee
hearing, which heard the plan
suggested by William G. Reed,
chairman of the Simpson Timber
Co., Seattle, was in recess until
later sessions, probably at Port
land and Boise, Idaho.
'We don't want to offend our.
Canadian friends," Reed testified
Friday. ' But we must equip our
selves with bargaining power, if
we are going to, negotiate with
them.
Reed proposed an emergency
quota on Canadian lumber im
ports, limiting them to the 10-year
average of Canadian lumber
shipped into the U.S. He said it
would cut imports to about 25 per
cent below the existing level. He
said it could be lifted when "gen
uine free trade developed be
tween the two countries.
Reed was among the 30 witness
, ranging from mill operators
to local union officials, who ap
peared from among more than 150
who wanted to testify at the one-
day session. Sen. Warren G. Mag-
nuson, D-Wash., committee chair
man, asked the 150 to consolidate
their testimony, but allowed all to
submit prepared statements for
the record.
The witnesses were far from
unanimous in their proposals, but
all agreed Canadian imports were
taking over an increasing share
of the American market. Soma
testimony blamed Canadian gov
ernment policies,
i Sen. E. L. Bartlett, D-Alaska,
sat with Magnuson. ,
They were told that Canadian
imports have caused a loss of
some 3,500 jobs in Pacific North
west communities, a $2.5 million
loss of tonnage for Washington
ports last year, and that some
mills and logging outfits had gone
out of business.
Other proposals included:
A subsidy for American mer
chant vessels carrying domestie
lumber.
Increased efforts for low-cost
public housing, to expand the
lumber market.
Infante Faces
Hotel Charge
TUCSON, Ariz., (AP) Mar-
cantonio Diaz-Infante, self-styled
provisional president of Mexico,
was to be taken to Nogales today
to answer charges of beating a
hotel bill of $1,400.
The leader of the so-called Za
pata movement, with a criminal
record in the United States and
Mexico, was arrested late Friday
night in Tucson.
Infante was seized after holding
a long press conference for
newsmen behind the locked doors
of his hotel room. During the
conference, he aired his
complaints against the Mexican
government.
Although he had shown news
men a Mexican clipping to es
tablish his identity. Infante de
nied he was the man police want
ed. A radio newsman who said he
knew Infante by sight said there
was no doubt be was the man.
No slrnaeer to troubles with
the law, Infante also was to ap
pear Wednesday in Los Angeles to
answer a charge of accepting
$1,000 to handle an immigration
matter and failing to deliver.- '
Infante was reported en route
to Nogales anyway to hold a
clandestine meeting with his sup
porters. But he probably reckoned
without help from Sheriff Robert
Connors of Nogales, who said In
fante would face the felony charge
of failing to pay the food and
lodging bill.

Other witnesses blamed the U.S.
Jones Act, which requires domes
tic producers to ship on American
merchant ships at higher costs,
while Canadian firms charter for
eign vessels at lower cost. But
spokesmen for the longshoremen's
and woodworkers' unions opposed
any repeal of the law.
Carl F. Baier, Olympia, busi
ness agent for Local 47 of the
longshoremen's union, said:
"I couldn't raise my family on
the wages paid by foreign ships."

Revision Group
Wants Governor
To Pick Judges
SAI.E.M (AP) The governor
should be given the power to ap
point judges of all state oourls,
the judicial subcommittee of the
Oregon Constitution Revision
commission recommended Friday,
would serve two years and then
(he people would vote whether to
keep him in office. After that, the
judge would run every six years,
the sole question again being
whether he should stay in office.
Judges now are elected, but
the governor can fill vancancies.
The subcommittee split 3-1 in
favor of a proposal ,to let the
legislature create a Law Commis
sion. This commission would advise
the legislature on needed law re
vision, advise the Supreme Court
on making rules for all courts,
and advise the governor on what
judges to appoint.
Ex Gov. Robert D. Holmes,
Fortland, objected to letting the
commission adviss the governor
on judicial appointments. He said
the governor should have the full
responsibility for his appoint
ments. Favoring it were Circuit Judge
Herbert M. Schwab, Portland,
chairman; Stale Sen. Thomas R.
Mahoney, D-Portland; and Su
preme Court Justicd A. T. Good
win. The subcommittee's recom
mendations will be considered by
the 17 nu'iiiberk commission here

Powder To Destroy Snakes
A party of 10 Glendale adults

more.
The expedition was organized by

The group carried blasting pow

ried .22 rifles which got little use
because of the danger to those in
the party, reports correspondent

blown out with the blasting pow
der. Smith said the handiest tools
proved to be shovels.

The largest snake was over three
feet in length several were near
ly as long. The biggest of the rep
tiles had a string of 12 rattles, ac
cording to Mrs. Fox.
Smith, a native of Glendale, re
members one occasion many yeara
ago when a resident blasted out a
single den containing 60 rattlers.
Such a large-scale kill, he said, is
unlikely later in Uia year, since
warmer, dryer weather causes
snakes to leave their dens and
range over a larger territory. It
is then that an occasional snake
is seen on the valley floor.
Members of the snake-killing
party were Smith; his father, Ches
ter Smith Sr.; his uncle, George
W. Smith of Springfield; and seven
high school students, Lee Dixon,
Carl Burke, Jimmy Brown, Joe
Fisher, Ted Bare, Bob Young and
Tom Fachet.
The dens blasted were on a ridge
between Swamp Creek and Bitnus
(Woodford Creek).
