Earth Satellite Biggest Science
Since First Telescope, Congress Learns
By ARTHUR EDSON
WASHINGTON OB - Scientists
iiu hiii bviiu iiian-maue muuns
whizzing around the earth at It,
000 miles an hour have told Con
gress: That plans now call for 13 of
the satellites, each of 20 to 30 Inch
es Ifn diameter. Some may fizzle
before they take off and certainly
they all won't be circling . the
earth at once.
That at least one expert, Joseph
Kaplan, looks on the international
rocket program "as perhaps the
greatest new scientific effort we
have had . sine the invention of
the telc$cope;"
in.:, .i
, mat we eann, pt a congress
man, tends to bulge about the mid
dle. The satellites, filled with deli
cate instruments that will send
back data by radio, will give clues
on how big that bulge is, as well
as supply information on atmo
spheric mysteries as high as 800
miles up.
Te Vote Cost
The scientists gave their views
last week to a House appropria
tions subcommittee that will have
to pass on the $19,262,000 the proj
ect will cost. Their testimony was
made public Wednesday "
Congressmen often like to argue
With witnesses,' but they. seemed
remarkably docile with the scien
tists arouna.
For example, Dr. Richard W.
Northwest wheatgrowers won an
Important round in their long
battle for a two-price structure for
wheat. The Senate amended the
farm bill by a vote of M to 39 to
guarantee 100 per cent parity for
wheat used in the domestic mill
ing trade (flour or cereal for
human consumption). The remain
der would be sold at the open
market price for unrestricted use
for livestock feed, seed or for ex
port. On this portion the price
could not drop below the corn price
support level. The amendment
carries certain strings: It will not
apply before the 1937 crop and
must be approved by a vote of
two-thirds of the wheatgrowers and
by the secretary of agriculture.
The administration is on record
as opposed to the two-price. plan,
but it is not known what its at
titude will be with the secretary
of agriculture given a veto power
on its use.
The committee bill contained a
two-price plan for rice. This ap
parently got by the Senate and
after that Senator Carlson of Kan
sas, long a staunch Eisenhower
supporter, pressed for adoption of
the two-price plan for wheat. Later
the cotton state senators tried to
get the plan extended to cotton,
but their amendment was defeated
87 to 33.
The two-price plan has this-virtue:
it offers hope for halting
the pile-up of a wheat surplus.
The Oregon Wheat League has long
urged this plan. It wants the wheat
to pass into consumption, if not as
bread then for livestock feed or
for export. Opposition to the plan
has come from two sources: Grow
ers of corn and other feed grains
who feared the dumping of the
wheat surplus on the feed market

Eden's Cyprus
Policy Backed

LONDON Ufl Prime Minister
Eden Wednesday night won par
liamentary approval of his govern
ment's controversial policies on
troubled Cyprus.
The House of Commons gave
FHpn ' St7.252 - vnta ni atmnnrt

Eden made no direct reference
to any American criticism of his
handling of the problem, or to the

Dogs Cared for at Pound, But
There's No Place Like a Home
-
By RUSSELL BIERAUGEL -Staff
Writer, The Statesman '
This is the time of year when business builds up for City Pound
master William A. Wilson.
Wilson has just come through two busy periods.
He finds an unusuallyjarge numbeiLpf traypuppies in January,
probably Christmas presents from parents who later, change their
minds, he said.
Then about the time ol the
late license deadline March 1 the
number of strays increases again.
But the dog population of Sa
lem is most evident when spring
weather comes to stay,-Wilson
said the City Pound on the east
edge of McNary Field can ac
commodate SO dogs but he some
times has more than that.
Few Signers
Spring also is the time when
flowerbed damage by dogs is at
its height Wilson gets many calls
about such cases but few of the
callers are willing to sign com
plaints. Wilson points out that
there is no action he can take
against a dog or an owner in such
cases unless he sees the dog do
ing the damage.
His main job is to pick up dogs
running loose on public property.
A dog can be reclaimed on pay
ment of a $2 fee. If it is not
claimed, it can be sold for $2.
Wilson cares for dogs at the
pound at least five days and
then, if not claimed or sold, they
are turned over to a nearby ren
dering company which disposes
of them without cost to the city
as a public service.
Owners of licensed dogs, of
course, are notified when their
dogs are impounded.
Wilson points out that a city
ordinance provides fines up to
$100 for allowing a dog loose on
public property in the city at
any time, He has cited just two
owners, both frequent offenders,
in his 5Vi years as poundmaster,
Wilson uid. One was fined $25
and the other $13.

Morse Accuses GOP of Trying
to Halt His Radio Broadcasts
WASHINGTON OB - Sen. Morse
(D-Orel said Wednesday that Re
publicans are attempting to block
his weekly radio brqadcasts in
Oregon and "seek to apply one
rule for their candidates and an
ther for opponents."
Morse said the Oregon Repub
lican chairman, Wendell Wyatt,
had told Oregon radio stations that
the GOP would ask equal time
unless the stations stopped broad
casting without charge " Morse's
weekly reports on legislation.
The senator said the stations
haye been carrying the reports as
a public service since March, 1954.
He said he would continue to make
them available, but that "any polit
ical statements and campaigning
by me would be' on separate paid
political broadcasts."
"At no time have I attempted
to influence any! station to carry
my .weekly reports. But Wyatt is
engaged in a bold attempt to twist
the arms of Oregon radio stations,"
Morse said.
v lie said he r considered such
reports an obligation of an elected
official, and that he has kept the
reports objective and limited to
discussion of the issues.
Marvel
' The silence that greeted this
equation was bipartisan.
The plans now call for launch
ing the satellites during the Inter
national Geophysical Year that be
gins July 1. 1957.
Have there been complaint from
countries it will fly over?
Ne Cemplalats '
Quite the contrary, Porter said.
He said he had been to an Inter
national meeting ip Germany, and
"the only complaint I heard was
from those countries over which
it did not go. because they wanted
to have a look at the thing."
Well, the talk drifted' along, and
finally Rep. John Phillips (R
Calif) asked: ;
"What happens wheri it falls
down?"
Porter explained how it would
race madly around the world for
weeks, maybe months, but as it
comes down into a thicker atmo
sphere the friction will burn it
"into minute ashes long before it
reaches the earth."
On the other hand. Porter said:
"If we didn't have any atmo
sphere up there, once established
it would go on forever. It con
tinues to circle in a path of this
sort, just like the moon." .
"The moon," t otter reminded
Congress, "has been up there a
good many years, and it hasn't
fallen down yet."
Cascade High
Youth FFA's
Star Farmer
C0RVALLIS t - Jim Towery.
17-year-old Cascade High School
student from Turner, is the 1936
star farmer of the Oregon Future
Farmers of America.
He was selected for the honor
Wednesday night from among 77
youths who have won the FFA
farm degree in the past year. He
received one of five $100 awards
from the national FFA Foundation.
Towery reported that his net
farm worth at present Is $5,826,
and that his total income from
FFA projects the last three years
was $3,496 from carrots, berries,
pole beans and mint.
Other $100 award winners were;
Robert Thiel, Canby, dairy farm
ing; Robert L. Gison, Canby, farm
mechanics; the Canby FFA chap
ter, farm safety; Roy Chapin,
Perrydale, public speaking; and
Robert Hoover, Monmouth-Inde
pendence, farm electrification.
Chapin was elected president of
the state organization.
Hoover, the farm electrification
winner, also was individual high
scorer in the state poultry judging
contest. Central High School of
Monmouth-Independence won the
team award, a trip to the national
FFA convention at Kansas City
next October. ,
Dam Project
Work to Start
PORTLAND W - Work will
begin this summer on the33-million-dollar
Hills Creek Dam, 40
miles upstream from Eugene on
the middle fork of the Willamette
River.
Army Engineers will call for
bids March 16 on the first work
there, consisting of a diversion
tunnel and Kitson Spring detour
road. The last Congress appropri
ated $310,000 for more planning and
for start of construction on the
dam, 264 miles upstream rfom
Lookout Point Dam.
The bids will be opened May 1,
Col. Jackson Graham, Portland
District Army engineer, said.
- The dam is expected to be four
years in construction.
Like Lookout Point Dam, it will
be a flood control and power
project. '
"A senator doesn't cease being
the elected official of his constitu
ents just because he Is a candidate
for re-election," Morse said.
He said Wyatt's view was at odds
with the view Republicans took of
President Elsenhower's recent
nationwide broadcast of his deci
sion to seek re-election.
"Press Secretary Haggerty said
that, so far as he wss concerned,
that was a nonpolitical program.
Republicans seek to apply one rule
for their candidates and another
for opponents,". Morse said.
Wyatt said in reply at Astoria,
"Several stations have informed us
that, jthey will be happy to grant
Republican candidates time equal
to that given free to Sen. Morse.
No station replied that they would
stop the More broadcasts, and I
doubt that any will."
He added, "Morse's claim that
his broadcasts are non-political is
news to the listening public. To my
knowledge, his only non-political
broadcast was the one in which
he substituted Christmas carols for
the customary political attacks on
President Eisenhower and his poli
cies." ft, L ... '

Capitol Mall
Area Parking
Plan Delayed
By ROBERT E. GANGWARE
City Editor, The Statesmaa
After a year of planning, new
off-street parking for 77 or more
cars in the extended Capitol Mall
area is still more than a month in
the future, it appeared Wednesday
after a check of latest complica
tions in the plan.
Money was appropriated last
year for the development of two
state-owned lots as parking areas,
with an agreement that city engi
neering crews would do the work
and the state would foot the bill.
Work started, but was called off,
last fall when the Capitol, Planning
Commission asked to study the
matter.
Since then, city officials have
been doing considerable chafing
over the persistent problem of
parking in the state buildings area,
particularly the problem of street
parking space taken up by all-day
parkers who work in the various
state offices.
Back la News
The parking plan popped back
into the news Wednesday via the
attorney general's office. 1
Atty. Genl. Robert Y. Thornton
ruled, in response to a request
from the planning body, that the
State Board of Control is not re
quired to seek the advice of any
other state agency in establishing
off-street parking, especially that
of temporary nature.
The opinion went on to say that
the Planning Commission could
protest any permanent improve
ment that might interfere with
long-range development of the Cap
itol Mali. ......
To Walt for Planners
" Board of Control Secretary Wil
liam Ryan said the board of con
trol did not plan to resume the
project immediately, but would
probably wait until after the April
meeting of the planning commis
sion.
Meanwhile at City Hall, City En
gineer J. H. Davis said the city
had decided to submit its bill for
the initial work done on the proj
ect last fall. Engineering crews
then got as far as removing some
trees. But, said Davis, the city is
anxious to go ahead with the work
whenever the state is ready.
Two Lets ,.
The plan worked out last year
was for an estimated $2,500 worth
of work on graveling, tree remov
al, driveways, bumper logs and
new sidewalks at two state-owned
lots, one big enough for 44 cars
and one for 33. One is at the
southeast corner of Summer and
Marion; the other on the west side
of Summer 'between Marion and
Union Streets. rt
The board of control said a third
state lot near First Presbyterian
Church also would figure in off
street parking.
Council Seeks
Bus Opinions
From Public
City officials will ask the public
by mail for suggestions on what to
do about city bus transportation,
Mayor Robert F. White said Wed
nesday. He called for City Hall prepara
tion of a brief questionnaire to be
mailed to all citizens on the water
department mail list.
The City Council now has before
it a bill to drop night bus service,
as requested by City Transit Lines
as an economy move. Also before
the Council is a Chamber of Com
merce recommendation that says
night service should be continued,
even if some form of Subsidy must
be provided the bus company.

Support to
Vice President
By JOSEPH D. KAMIN
MANCHESTER, N.H, fAP)
Republicans acrevd Wednes
day night that Vice President
Nixon's stunning write-in. trib
ute in New Hampshire's presi
dential primary nas sent his
political stock soaring. (Picture
on wirephoto page. I
And there was an abundance of
evidence to back them up.
The tide of write-in votes was
unprecedented in the state's his
tory, Republican Gov: Lane Dwin-
ell said in a congratulatory tele
gram to Nixon.
Most W rite-las
"The number of write-in votes
you received (22,141) exceeded any
similar expression ever demon
strated by the people of New
Hampshire," Dwinnell told the
vice-president.
In Washington, Nixon himself
declared "fn)ne could havejwen
more surprised man r was. at tne
number of people who took the
trouble to write in my name .
and 1 want to express to each of
them my deep appreciation and
thanks.
"Virtual Guarantee"
Some GOP leader saw the spon
taneous demonstration of wide
spread support for the much-dis
cussed vice president as a virtual
guarantee of another Eisenhower
Nixon ticket in the fall.
Others spoke of -"a mandate
from the people."
Even some Democrats interpret
ed Nixon's achievement as a sign
that he has much greater "grass
roots" appeal than many party
leaders had believed.

Ruling Trims
Voter Number
For Eugene
EUGENE t Attorney Gen.
Robert Y. Thornton ruled Wednes
day that Eugene residents cannot
legally register to vote until April
28.
That means citizens who haven't
already registered will be unable
to vote in the May II primary
election.
Thornton ruled on the basis of
a 1928 state Supreme Court deci
sion which upheld the state's voter
registration law. The law provides
that no registration may be ac
cepted for 30 days prior to any
special election. Eugene has one
special election scheduled for
March 27 and another for April 26,
Just 30 days later.
The ruling cancels all registra
tions which have been made since
Feb. 25 for Eugene residents.
"It is to be regretted that the
right to register and the resulting
right to vote, one of the most
important of the privileges of
citizenship, must be denied to what
may be a large number of resi
dents of the city of Eugene," said
Thornton.
He said the only remedy to the
restriction would be a new state
election law. '

able income in 1948, 1130 and 1951.
Testimony was given in the 34
week trial that Callahan was in
debt shortly before becoming sher
iff, but by the end of 1951 after
years inoffice was worth
$110,000.- He contended the unre
ported income came from surplus,
taxfree political contributions.
