Veteran lawmakers observed
tho weekend vacation, wilh no

House Approves
ill To Strike
Death Penalty
SALEM (UPI) A proposal to
strike capital punishment from
the state constitution was ap
proved 4513 Friday by the House.
The measure would be voted
upon at the 1364 general election,
and would apply both to the pres
ent and proposed state constitu
tions. Rut the House sent back to
committee a companion measure
which would have set the statu
tory penalty for murder at life in
prison.
Rep. John Dcllenback, R-Med-
ford, said he wanted the hill
amended so the death penalty
could be retained in cases of cop
killing, a prisoner killing a guard,
and the killing of a kidnap victim.
Both the proposed constituional
change, and the statute already
have passed the Senate.
The Senate version changed the
constitutional penalty for first de
gree murder from death to life
in prison. The House amended this
to delete all reference to murder
from the constitution, and the
Senate must agree with this be
fore the measure can go to the
voters.
The Senate set the statutory
penalty for first degree murder
at life in prison, required a min
imum of IS years be served, then
required lifetime parole supervi
sion. The House took out the IS year
minimum, retained the lifetime
supervision provision, and then
set the penalty for second degree
murder at life in prison, with re
lease from parole possible after
seven years.
Dcllenback told House members
he did not think the penalties
were severe enough to offer pro
tection to the public. The House
voted 35-23 to send tho bill back
to- committee for amendments.
Joint Committee
Seeks Compromise
On State Services
SALEM (UI'l) A four-man,
Scnate-lluiiso conference commit
tee today sought compromise in
an effort to raise $60 million to
finance expanded slate services
next biennium.
House Tax Committee Chairman
Richard Eymann, D-Marcola, and
Rep. Victor Atliyeh, R-Porlland,
met with Senate Tax Committee
Chairman Boyd Overhulse, D
Madras, and Sen. Robert Elf
strom, R-Salcm.
They must reach agreement on
amount and method.
The House, approved plan
would raise $35 million from in
come tax hikes, $12 million by a
one-shot speedup of withholding
tux collections, and $18 million
from a 4-cent a pack cigarette
tax a total of $U5 million.
The Senate-approved plan would
raise $52 million from increased
income taxes, and use the $12
million one-shot money only if
needed a total of $U4 million.
The House income tax measure
includes a modified net receipts
tax.
The Senate hill hits hard at
largo families on the theory that
most of the state's general fund
goes to pay for education.
Tho Senate Tax Committee has
nut yet acted on the cigarette tax,
and probably will let it die in
committee.
The House has refused to ap
prove a sales tax bill, although
Senate Tax Committee members
claim a sales tax offers the only
way lo cut lncomo and property
taxes.
Many senators said Friday they
were voting for the lax package
simply to gel It to conference
committee.
Less than an hour alter the
Senate voted, rules were suspend
ed In the House and both the Son
ale income tax and one-shot bills
were rejected and Ihe conference
committee members named.

Threat Of New Violence
Looms In Birmingham
By United Prtss International
A threat of new racial violence
hung over Birmingham today.
Police stepped up their patrols
through the tense city and un
armed Negro volunteers sta
tioned themselves around
churches and the homes of inte
gration leaders Friday night. The
activity was touched off by a re-
Sort from integration strategist
lartin Luther King Jr. that an
anonymous telephone caller had
threatened new bombings.
There was another racial dem

Friday night, resulting in at least
325 arrests, and more than 50 Ne

Soviets Stress
Mechanical Ills
In Orbit Flight
LONDON (UPI) Praise for
astronaut L. Gordon Cooper con
tinued today from both sides of
the Iron Curtain. In Tokyo, Ja
pan prepared a welcome for a
key member of Cooper's team,
Col. John H. Glenn.
The Communist world mixed
its praise with references to the
long space flights made last year
by two Soviet cosmonauts, and
stressed Cooper's technical trou
bles. But it did give the Cooper
flight more extensive coverage
than it has accorded other recent
American events.
Izvestia, the Soviet government
newspaper, Friday night reported
"an atmosphere of fear and nerv
ousness" at the Mercury control
center because of the mechanical
faults as Cooper began his de
scent. But it found no fault in the ac
tions of the astronaut himself.
"Only thanks to his courage
and self-possession, the cosmic
flight was happily concluded," it
said.
Glenn, who played an impor
tant role in' Cooper's safe land
ing, arrived in Nagasaki, Japan
today from his post on the Navy
communications ship Coastal
Sentry. It was from this ship
that Glenn, America's first man
to orbit the earth, radioed in
structions to Cooper to fire his
retro-rockets manually after au
tomatic devices to fire them
failed.
Glenn will arrive in Tokyo by
plane Sunday for a 12-day semi
oflicial visit, the first to a for-
eign
country by a U.S. space-
in .in.

of San Marino today cabled its
congratulations to President Ken

The Oregon Wage and Hour

The meeting will take place at

'Romeo' Is Back
In Toils Of Law
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (UPI)
At the tender age of 16 Ellsworth
(Sonny) Wisccarvcr made nation
al headlines and earned the mon
iker "Boy Romeo" when he eloped
wilh a serviceman's wife.
Smaller headlines appeared
down through the years concern
ing Wisccarvcr, now 33. He ran
up a total of five minor arrests
in California, Nevada, and Utah,
mainly, he said because people
remembered Wisecarvcr the "Boy
Romeo."
Wisecarvcr is in trouble with
the law again today. But this time
he'd he in print no matter what
his name was.
Deputy Dist. Atty. Herb Jackson
said Sonny and Jimmy Wright
spent each weekend for the past
three months tapping telephone
coin boxes for a total of about
$2,000. Both men were booked
Friday on two counts of burglary
after, police said, a telephone
company employe spotted them
breaking into a box.
Sonny made the big headline
when he ran away with Mrs. Ele
anor Deveny, 25, a Long Beach,
Calif., mother of two. The couple
left a Long Beach party for "ham
burgers" and ended up in Oro
ville. Calif., 500 miles away.
Mrs. Deveny said Sonny was
"more of a man at 16 than a lot
of men at 35" and "I love him
more than I do my husband."
