Epton, now IS and a lawyer. explained: "I didn t think of it as a prom ise, just as a silly, foolish state ment. "But I'm stuck with it."

Langley, beginning a signed series of articles in the Oregon Journal Monday, said he paid $1,250 to an Informer to get information on Portland vice con ditions, and then found out that the man was a "plant." Langley said the informer was Thomas Maloney, Seattle race track figure who has been sub poenaed by a grand jury here but has not appeared. Langley said he Is making the statements to counter a series of copyrighted articles which ap-! peared in The Oregonian, linking' Langley a name to what the news-, paper said were attempts to or ganize vice. The newspaper pub-; lished what it said were trans criptions of recorded conversa tions between Langley and Ma loney. Pali Out $1.!5 Langley's first article said: "He (Maloney) was able to get me quite accurate and detailed infor mation about vice activities in Portland. For this information I paid him from 420 to $150 at a time. In all, he received the mon ey from 16 checks totaling $1,250." To preclude "compromising my informants", Langley said, Malon ey indorsed only the first check paid to him. Langley and "other persons" in his office indorsed the others, he said. I Recently, however, Langley was an "F Ik ins plant." This was a reference to James Elkins, Port land night club backer who tape- recorded the conversations attrib uted to Langley and then gave them to The Oregonian. Sir. Peliee Tsld "He l Maloney) was trying to cultivate me and taking money I paid him as an informer, and, at the same time trying to curry fa vor with Elkins," Langley said. "Perhaps I did not act wisely in accepting information from him. But the vice business is a dirty game and when you want infor mation about it, you don't go to; a ladies aid Ira. You go to the people who can supply the infor mation." . j Langley said he gave the Infor mation to Portland Chief of Police James Purcell Jr., Sheriff Terry D. Schrunk, the State Police and the Oregon Liquor Control Com mission. He said earlier that he; did not gain full cooperation of. these agencies. ' Langley said that in another j article he will tell why he hasn't accepted a grand jury's invitation to make a "voluntary appear ance" and why he hasn't taken "legal action against the newspa per responsible for the vicious attack on me."

At Monday's preliminary session the board discussed a tentative program for the next biennium. It includes nearly 15 million dol lars in requests for new buildings at state colleges and the univer sity. The budget goes before the 1957 Legislature. i For the first time the lawmiik-! ers would be asked to approve stale financing of new dormitories 1 at the University of Oregon, Ore- eon Stale College and Southern j Oregon College in Ashland. Previ ously these campus housjng facil ities were self-liquidating, but, the; board said this method was not flexible enough to meet expanding 1 enrollments. A controversy over parking fa cilities at ' Portland State College also is on the agenda.. The con-j struction budget includes $250,000 1 to be included with anticipated federal funds for construction of a parking lot near, the Auditorium. Chancellor John R. Richards presented a proposed new salary schedule for universit) and college teachers. In support of the plan he said a ''somewhat more formal program is necessary so the aca demic staff can predict the sal ary i step increases available to them." Richards' proposal was ap proved by the finance committee1 of the hoard. The committee also' endorsed his p rnposal to seek funds from the State Emergency Board to finance immediate sal ary increases for teachers. leads' Fail In Hfunt for Escaped Con Two possible "leads" Monday In the search for Bernard Walton. 35-year-old convict, who escaped Sunday from Oregon State Hos pital with a forged pass, dwindled out on investigation.

Rudenko, Soviet air force chief of staff, said Monday the Soviet air force has been ordered not to shoot on sight foreign planes in truding into Soviet air space. But he told reporters the United States will be responsible for any future incidents resulting from flights by American planes over Soviet territory. Russia charged July 10 Jhat U.S. twin-engine, medium bomb ers from West Germany had flown over Russian territory east of Poland on July 4. 5. and 9. The I'nited States denied the charges. Rudenko told newsmen there was no question in his mind that U.S. military planes had flown over Soviet territory as charged. "They were flying at tremen dous altitude," he said. "Our planes flew alongside and sig naled them to land, but the Amer ican planes disregarded the sig nals and continued on their courses. Asked by the newsmen if the Soviet pilots had identified any American markings on the planes, Rudenko said: "They did not see any mark ings, but our fliers know U.S. planes, we know 'the types." One American reporter suggest ed the planes may have been made in the United States, and sold lo another country. "That's your responsibility," the youthful-looking air marshal re plied. "The I'nited States knows whom it sells its planes to and where they are." "Our pilots have instructions not lo shoot, in order to avoid incidents." Rudenko continued. "You know what our present pol icy is. It is lo avoid heightening international . tensions." Sharing Ah With Bears' Leads to 'Boo? for Tippler VANCOUVER, B.
