One went from Roscburg High and the other from Glide High. Both came back high ly impressed. lexico is one of five countries from which Roseburg's sister city 3 Umpqua National Forest Timber Tracts Sold Monday More than $350,000 was offered In bids for three Umpqua National Forest timber- tracts in the Cow Cfeck Ranger District In sales at the Roscburg supervisor's office Monday. ,CSiD Lumber Co. of Roscburg won the Two Mile Sale on 213 ac res 2L miles northeast of Tiller Terrorists Burn Venezuela Plant 'CARACAS, Venezuela (UPI) -Thtnmvotin.nrmnd Dro-Castro ter rorists attacked and burned the UlS.-owncd Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co, warehouse today. There were no casualties but damage was estimated at roughly 1500,000. 'Police said at least four men were involved in the attack and said some of them indentified by a, warehouse night watchman wore members of the Venezuelan Communist party. They used two stolen cars lor the raid. J All Caracas firo-flghtlng equip ment and 300 firemen battled the three-hour blaze in the southwest ern factory district, which burned up an estimated 10,000 tires and tubes, almost gutting the building. Twentv families had to bo evacu ated from the area because of the dense smoke which hung In a thick black cloud over most of Caracas. The attackers, members of the anti - government underground Armed Forces of National Liber ation, forced their way Into tho Warehouse at gunpoint around dawn. They tied up three em- ilovcs, sprayed the floors of the tuilding with gasoline and used a firebomb to set the fire. Tho attack came six dnya after terrorists raided and burned tho ' U.S. military mission office here and forced six U.S. Army men to strip to their shorts. Only a month ago, terrorists set (ire to the U.S.-owncd Scars Roebuck warehouse In the same Industrial suburb and caused $1 million damage. Several firemen narrowly es caped death at the scene of to day's fire when the warehouse roof caved in. At least two fire men suffered from smoke Inhala tion. Today's attack came less than 24 hours after Deputy Gustavo Machado, head of the Venezuelan Communist party, said the Reds not only accepted responsibility for the terrorist raids "but arc proud of them." .

One of the appeal ing reasons for its consideration is its easy accessibility. While liny Uruguay, which was discussed on Monday, is one of the smallest of the I. aim American countries, Mexico is one of the biggest. As a matter of fact, it ranks third in size and second in population (34.3 million people) Its size is matched by a history that is long, rich and colorful as any in the western hemisphere And it is a history of which its population is deeply proud. Arti facts uncovered less than 20 years ago link that history with the very beginning of man In pre-nistory. It has been traced through a se rics of civilizations, including the highly-cultured Mayas and Toltecs. it was followed by the rise of the Aztecs and their subsequent dra matlc and brutal subjugation by the Spanish.

Stability Achieved Stability has only been achieved within the last 25 years. From great political upheaval and radi calism, it has swung to a conser vative governing philosophy with greater consideration of popular demands. It has a social security system, religious freedom, vote for women (since 1946) free and com pulsory elementary education and a growing middle class. It devotes 20 per cent of its federal budget for education. Its constitution draws heavily on the background laid by the Amer ican Constitution, with a three-part division of powers among the exe cutive, legislative and judicial. The president (who may never be reelected), however, has consid erably more power than the United States President. Trade Brisk Another thing which ties it strongly with the United States is its trade nartnership with its north ern neighbor. Five years ago, the U.S. provided almost 77 per cent of Mexico'i imports and took about 69 per cent of her exports. Foreign investments aiso come largely from the U.S. Us economy is based on agricul ture, commerce, manufacturing, nuntfng and fishing, mining, tour ism and forestry. It is currently involved in a great reforestation program to replenish forests. Its commercial timber is pine, spruce, cedar, mahogany, logwood and rosewood. Population Melded Because of long periods in which there was little immigration, the population has been pretty well melded. It is estimated three fourths of Mexico's population is mestizo (mixed Indian and Span ish). There is practically no racial conflict. The major religion is Roman Catholic, although Protest ants number about one million. A Latin American expert in Rosc burg recently talked strongly for affiliation with a Mexican city. He offered his assistance in arranging such an affiliation. So far, nine cities from the U.S. have affiliations with Mexican cit ies.

It was built by Leo E. Kowal- cwski under the Public Works Pro gram for $19,800. The new office is 72 by 36 feet with ruslic siding out side and hemlock paneling and plaster board Inside. This is the first new building constructed at the Glide Ranger Station since 1949 when the new rangers' dwelling was built. It is planned to convert the old office, built in 1938, to a residence, ac cording to George H. Lyon Jr., assistant ranger and publicity of ficer. At the time the old office was built, there were approximately three full-time employes in the district. Work was primarily of a Re-Run Slated For 'Bus Stop' The curtain will rise again Wednesday at 8:20 p.m. at the Umpqua West Theater for the be ginning performance of a four night re run of the Merely Play ers' production of "Bus Slop." Pop ular demand brought about the de cision to extend the play s run. The Players will keep the walls of the converted "barn" (heater echoing with rehearsal activity in the months ahead with four more productions scheduled for the year. The musical "Flower Drum Song," will be presented in early summer. The O'Ncil drama, "Desire Under llie Elms," "The Rainmaker" and a comedy, as yet unsclected will round out the schedule. According to Glen Yates, pub licity chairman for the Players, season tickets will be available at the box office Wednesday night and will include admission to the current production. Umpqua West Theater Is located west of Roscburg on the Melrose Road. Terry Seems Victor In Peru Elections LIMA, Peru (UPI) Mounting returns today appeared to con firm the victory of moderate left ist Fernando Belaunde Terry in Sunday's presidential election. Most Peruvian newspapers had proclaimed Belaunde the presi dentelect, and he described him self as "confident." He said, how ever, that he would await the offi cial outcome before claiming victory.-' A late tally of unofficial returns amounting to more than SO per cent of the total gave Belaunde 014.707 votes to 517,624 for Victor It. Have dc la Torre, also a moderate leftist, and 419. 832 for conservative ex-President Manuel Odria. Splinter candidate Mario Samame had received 17, 3.W votes. These figures gave Belaunde about 39 per cent of the vote, well over the 33 3 per cent needed for election. The outcome of the voting for lfts congressional scats, though still uncertain, seemed less deci sive. It appeared probable that Belaunde would have to ally him self either with Have or with Odria to muster a congressional majority.

Phouma Blames Former Allies For New Fight Vientiane', Laos fupn-Neu- tralist Premier Souvanna Phnuma today blamed his Communist for mer allies for the renewed fight ing on the Plain of Jars that has threatened to split his wobbly coalition government. Souvanna issued a sharp com munique rejecting "in toto" all allegations made by Prince Sou phanouvong, leader of the Com munist Pathet Lao, in letters to the British and Russian co-chairmen of the Geneva conference that ended the Laotian civil war and "guaranteed" his govern ernmcnt's neutrality. During the civil war, the Lao tian neutralist faction was allied with the Pathet Lao. 'The entire blame for aggres sive acls and the rupture of the cease-fire can he laid on the Pathet Lao and their allies," Sou vanna said in an apparent ref erence to Communist North Viet Nam, The premier questioned the sin cerity of the Pathet Lao in sign ing agreements at Geneva, Zurich and Vientiane. He said those agreements "are perhaps nothing more in the eyes of the Pathet Lao than a milestone on the way toward further plans being drawn up between themselves and their allies." Last week Souvanna charged that Communist North Viet Nam was supporting Pathet Lao ag gression on the Plain of Jars. Re ports from the strategic plain have indicated serious fighting between Pathet Lao troops and forces commanded by neutralists Grn. Kong I.e. Souvanna's statement was con sidered a strong one. Observers said it could pave the way for a final break between the Pathet Lao and their one-time neutral ist allies.
