' There was no Immediate official Neuberger Says Attack By Morgan Unjustified WASHINGTON, March 20 m Sen. Neuberger D-Ore said to day Oregon Public Utilities Com missioner Howard Morgan has made him the target of an "un justified" attack for testifying in the Senate rackets investigation. "Any fair minded analysis of my testimony will indicate that attack was not justified," Neuber ger said in a statement. He added he hopes Morgan will withdraw his remarks after study ing a transcript of the testimony, "as last year he withdrew an attack on two other loyal Demo crats, Gov. Averell Harriman of New York and Sen. Estes Kefau ver (D-Tenni." Neuberger testified last week as 1 volunteer witness at hearings Into an alleged alliance between Teamsters Union officials, public officeholders and underworld fig ures in Portland. Neuberger said he testified for these three rea sons: "1. To defend the good name of the city of Portland, where I was born and raised. "2. To urge that any responsi ble evidence which might furnish additional information on the rep utations of the late Gov. Paul Patterson and Mayor Terry D. Schrunk (of Portland) be received by the committee, in fairness - to these men and their families. "3. To pay tribute to the integ rity of former (Portland) Mayor Dorothy McCullough Lee,, whose untimely defeat in 1952 set in motion the whole regretable chain of events culminating in these hearings." At no point was T critical of Howard Morgan or his testimony' be added. Neuberger said Morgan "wsi Opposition to Bruce Eddy Project Seen WASHINGTON. March 20 U . Stiff opposition wis predicted to day for the proposed Braces Ed dy Dam. which has cleared its first hurdle in Congress. Sen. Dworshak (R Idaho) said an effort will tie made to elimi nate the Idaho project from the public works bill approved yes terday oy a senate committee. Dworshak is advocating a fed eral Bruce Eddy Dam in the north fork of the Clearwater Riv er. The dam. along , with other flood control and water projects, would be authorized for federal construction under the bill. Sen. Neuberger (D Ore) has announced he will seek to delete Bruces Eddy from the omnibus bill on grounds it would adversely affect fish and wildlife. But Dwor shak expressed confidence the Senate will keep the dam in the measure. Serious opposition is expected to turn up in the House, which will take up the biU after the Senate has disposed of it, Dwor shak said. . "An ill-advised campaign of propaganda has been inspired. Jjyl ina national wildlife organizations to arouse opposition to Brucei Ed dy Dam in many states," he de clared. Dworshak said although the pub lie works bill carries a 24-million-dollar appropriation authorization, no construction money will be re quested for Bruces Eddy until cur rent studies into how the project would affect fish and wildlife are written, into the bill by Dworshak. . The federal Bruces. Eddy . dam would cost an estimated 123 mil lion dollars. Schrunk Probe Said Commenced In May of 1956 PORTLAND. March 20 Stat Police Capt. Vayne M, Gur dine said today that he began Investigations f accusations against Terry Schrunk "some time in May." 1956.

Spellers Get Too Good for Word Lists (Story als Page 1) AMITY, March 20-The semi-finals of The Oregon Statesman KSLM Spelling Contest here to night added two new competitors for the Grand Finals and con firmed a growing suspicion. The suspicion was that those who chose the basic word list pub lished in The Statesman under estimated the ability of the youth ful spellers of the Mid-valley. For the second successive night, four semi-finalists were still in the running when the semi-final word was exhausted. So again, as at Keizer, the word caller had to use less familiar words to determine the winner. WIDE WORD KNOWLEDGE Representatives of the two spon soring organizations said after the contest it appeared more than ever this year that Grand Finals winners would be students who had a wide knowledge of words and who could think words through without relying entirely on me morizing a published list. To some extent, that has been true in the pask J mlJob. jpellers in most Grand Finals have faced unfamiliar words. But there prob ably will be more need for them than ever come the final event April 3 because the 1057 published list apparently has not taxed some contestants'- abilities. "But . there still are some difficult words in the published list; it is no 'breeze,' by any means," one sponsor de clared. Our spellers are just get' ting better." Host principal tonight was Albert Yoder and it cost him, too. As in former years, he had promised the Amity contestant tl for every speller who dropped by the way side before Amity's. Since Betty Mae Ingram of Amity out-lasted her five opponents to take first place, she won S5. Second -place winner was Ronnie Wells of Sheri dan. Both go to the Grand Finals. TWO CONTEST JUDGES Judges tonight were Mervin Jen kins, valley editor of The States man, and Dave Hoss. manager of KSLM, who was also master of ceremonies. Wendell Webb, man aging editor of The Statesman, called the words. , More than 100 spectators and participants were served refresh ments in the Amity school base ment after the contest. KSLM will broadcast an Inter view with the three top spellers. all of . whom won special certifi cates of merit, at 3:45 p.m. Thurs day.

" - Portland to Raise City Bus Fares on Sunday PORTLAND, March -City bus fares will go up Sunday. The City Council granted the increases today, averting a threat ened stoppage of Portland's mass transportation system. The Rose City Transit Co, had said it would halt bus service j unless the council authorized the j boosts. '. " i Under the new schedule, tokens, j which now sell I for 50 cents, will I be eliminated, and single fares will be 20 cents. The weekly pass j will cost S3 instead of the present ' $2.75. Fares for school children j will remain cents a ride. R. L. Clark, company president, said the company now wants to negotiate a 20-year operating fran chise, and City ' Commissioner Ormond Beaa said be hoped talks could start soon. Commissioner Stanley Earl asked Clark if the company would be willing to write the new fare schedule into a future franchise. ' Gark replied that any fare pro vision would have to be "flexible." He said the company hopes to improve the bus service, but that city officials will "have to take our word for it." Clark rejected Earl's proposal that the company continue oper ation under present faces until a rates accountant hired by the city completes a check of Ros City's financial condition. " j - Attacked solves under a U.N. resolution. The British plan would not set tie the political future of Britain's eastern Mediterranean island bas tirm but is aimed to end deadly violence and strife. The Greek-speaking island ma jority people want independence from Britain and union with Greece: the Turk-speaking minor ity people want the British to continue ruling the crown colony. Colonial Secretary Alan Lennox- Boyd told the House of Commons Britain has agreed to let Cyprus Archbishop Makanos leave his ex ile in the Indian Ocean Seychelles Islands if he will call for a stop to anti-British violence on Cyprus. Lennox-Boyd disclosed that, an offer by Lord lsmay, the retiring British secretary general of NATO, to conciliate the differ ences had been accepted. Greek Cypriot nationalists in Cyprus immediately attacked the British plan. They said the issues must be settled directly between Makarios and the British govern ment. Themistocles N. Dervis, Greek Cypriot mayor of Nicosia, said the Cyprus problem is not a question of NATO member differences. "NATO is mostly made up of colonial powers who would not even agree to raising the Cyprus Question before the V S.," Dervis said. City Official Charged With Halting Recall YAKIMA. March JO I - Fi nance Commissioner Kenneth Schutt today was charged in Su perior Court with stealing three recall petitions seeking his ouster from, office. The charge of grand larceny and violation of the corrupt prac tices act was filed by Yakima County Pros. Don J. Clark, who alleged Schutt stole the petitions March (. Two of the petitions still are missing but one was found in a storage room in the city clerk's office. Schutt, released on $2,500 bail after arraignment in Judge Dolph Barnett's court, refused to com ment onjhe action, referring jiU questions to his legal advisers. " The recall was started by the Citizens Committee for Better Government after Schutt, as act ing mayor, had fired the police chief and appointed a Tacoma man in his stead. The action was nullified by the city's Civil Serv ice Commission, which ruled the firing was illegal The corrupt practices charge al leged Schutt interfered with the rights of the voters to vote for or against his recall by stealing and concealing the three petitions. Schutt will remain in office pending his trial. Meanwhile, all Yakima County judges disqualified themselves to day from bearing Schutt'i plea for a restraining order designed to stop the recall action. Schutt asked for the order on grounds too much time had elapsed between filing of the peti tions and their checking by the city clerk and because they were not stamped on receipt. An outside judge will be called in to hear the case.

Beck Jold To Furnish Records (Story alse oi sage .) WASHINGTON. March 20 (U President Dave Beck of the Team sters Union was ordered today to appear next Tuesday before Sen ate rackets investigators and to bring his financial records for 1949 through 1955. This key development, heralding events that could be spectacular interrupted testimony of Frank W. Brewster, a vice president of the Teamsters and chairman of the union's Western Conference. Brewster's financial affairs, in tertwined with those of the Team ster's Western Conference, have been under searching scrutiny Today's installment of the story involved Brewster's personal and financial ties with the broker, George Newell, a racing stable partnership with a Seattle pinball machine operator and Teamsters member, and a political donation which Brewster said the Team sters made to Republican Gov. Goodwin J. Knight of California NO RECORD CITED Knight said in Sacramento "we have no record" of any Teamsters contribution for any of the gover nor's campaigns. There was testimony also that Beck's son Dave Jr., and Beck's financial adviser drew $750 apiece for expenses at a Teamsters con ference in Los Angeles 'in 1952 although they were not on the of ficial delegate lists, Brewster said he thought Beck Jr. might have attended as a dele gate from some local other than his own and that the financial ad viser, Simon Wampole, might have been doing legal- work for the union at the time. He said he wasn't so sure the two weren't delegates.' Brewster testified that Newell paid him a salary of some $5,000 a year in stocks for three years for managing their stable he said he got up every morning at 4:30 when he was in Seattle to walk the horses. Brewster said H "is not true as the counsel for the inquiry con tended, that these payments were "commissions" ' Newell paid to him. RACING PARTNERSHIP Subsequently, Brewster said, he went into a racing partnership with John Sweeney, the late secretary-treasurer of the Teamster's Western Conference, and - Fred Galeno, juke box and pinball ma chine operator, who is from "one of the first families of Seattle." Galeno is a member both of the Teamsters Union Local 174 and of the Seattle Assn. of Pinball Op erators with which another local, 353, has a contract. Brewster said he saw nothing wrong there, ei ther. He spoke of a Teamster politi cal contribution to Knight but didn't specify the amount or give any date for such s gift. Brewster said Knight appointed Harold Lopes, business manager of Teamsters Local SS, to the Cal ifornia State Board of Harbor Commissioners. , And he said he might hav writ ten or talked with Knight about the qualifications of Charles Tait of Seattle, who was appointed di rector of the . San Francisco Port Authority sr m.OOO year.'" Knight issued a statement say ing, "'W have no record of any financial contributions by the Teamsters union to any of my campaigns.

Her parents were jailed on assault to murder charges. Homicide Capt. W. W. Wilkinson said tjie child, Charlene Brown, suffered fractures of both legs in a beating several months ago and that the legs had healed improper ly for lack of medical attention. Wilkinson said the mother ac cused the child's father, Edgar Brown, 30, of administering the beating. They are Negroes. The baby, Wilkinson said, also was found to have suffered these additional injuries: Front teeth broken off almost at the gums. Sores and scars on the body, chest and head. Body scalds from being placed in excessively hot water. Hospital attaches said the child also was suffering from malnutri tion and dehydration.

Brewster replied that. "I'm not able to tell what people think." Possibly, McClellan ssid. there was something "improper in the large profits Newell obtains" from his business with the Teamsters.
