A decree of the party's Central Committee. puDli&hcd in news papers, said observance of the day of Lenin's death "imposes an atmosphere of mourning and grief," while the birthday "festi val .. . would be more in keeping with the entire spirit of Leninism as an eternally living and life- asserting teaching." Moslems Attack Shops TUNIS Wl Groups of young Moslems attacked several Jewish shops in Tunis Tuesday, forc ing the merchants to close their doors and call for police. No one was hurt nor was there any dam age. Lane County may recelvo up to $300,000 more in O&C timber re ceipts during 1955 than it re ceived during 1954's record- breaking year, the county board of commissioners revealed Wednesday. Lane County last fall received $1,009,429 as its share of receipts from timber sales during 1953 in Western Oregon's 18 O&C coun ties. The county commissioners said Lane may receive nearly $1,300,- 000 next fall as its share from O&C timber sales made during 1954. They explained the pay ments are always made the year following the 12-month period in which the timber was sold. Commissioner Kenneth Nielsen said the reason for the county's exnected O&C savment increase is because of a recent announce ment by the Bureau of Land Man agement which stated that 519 O&C timber sales were made dur ing 1954, totaling 728,250,000 board feet. This timber sold for $15,845,833, averaging $21.76 for a thousand board feet. This is compared with 1953, a record year, when 542,344,000 board feet sold for $11,136,573.28, an average of $20.36 a thousand board feet. O&C funds are also being dis tributed to the 18 O&C counties on a revised formula, Commis sioner Ralph Petersen explained, He said the formula was changed following a revaluation of the 18 O&C counties. Under the new O&C timber resources by the gov ernment In the past, Lane County used to receive 15.8 per cent of the total O&C payments made to the formula. Lane will receive 16.23 per cent. Under federal law, 75 per cent of receipts from the O&C lands, less appropriations for access road construction, are paid the 18 western Oregon counties. So, although Lane is entitled to its share of 75 per cent of O&C receipts, it Is actually getting a portion of about 50 per cent, be cause approximately 25 per cent of receipts are being withheld by the government for access road construction. Here Is the way county com missioners have estimated what Lane might receive next fall: Total gross sales on O&C lands (excluding controverted), $15.- 84F,833. Eliminate one half of this $7,921,916 for the govern ment s 25 per cent share and a 25 per cent share for access roads, leaving $7,921,916 for apportion-, ment among the 18 O&C counties. Since Lane is entitled to 16.23 per cent of this remaining sum, its share is estimated at nearly $1,300,000. I 3 Days Only Friday - Saturday Monday!

Neu- berger (D-Ore) said Wednesday "soma 10 million dollars for the next two years" would be avail able to Oregon for school con itruction purposes under terms of a bill he and Sen. Morse (Ind Ore) have joined in sponsoring. The bill, Introduced by Sen.

Second Alarm Proves False WASHINGTON Wl For the second straight day, police sped to the home of Sen. McCarthy (It Wis) in response to neighbors' alarms of possible danger to the senator. On both occasions police found nothing out of the ordinary. Wednesday night, five police men rushed to McCarthy's house after George W. Ennis, who lives next door, set off a box alarm. Ennis said a neighbor heard noises on a roof and phoned him. Police failed to find any prowler. McCarthy came out of his house in shirt-sleeves, told the officers he had heard no noises and in vited them in for coffee. The day before, Mrs. Ennis told police she received a telephone warning to get out of her home because McCarthy was going to be "blown up." A police guard was stationed near the senator's home.
