Kennedy-Khrushchev Meeting Talks May Include A-Weapons Use WASHINGTON im The firm intention of the United States to use atomic weapons in limited war, if necessary, is a matter which may become involved in the meeting of President Kennedy wid Soviet Premier Khrushchev next month. , , - ' ., The subject can come up, directly or indirectly, in several ways; including: ' . Discussion of the nuclear weapons' test ban proposals. The United States has a variety of nuclear fission arms scaled to differ ent uses under battlefield conditions and presumbaly would like to , their Bill Aimed At Executives WASHINGTON OH Sen. Es tes Kefauver, D-Tenn., said Sat urday ha it shaping legislation aimed at corporate executives who have knowledge of antitrust violations by subordinates, but do nothing. The bill would amend the Sher man Antitrust Act, which pro vide! for penalties only against those who actually participate in schemes to rig prices. The measure is one of several on which Kefauver, chairman of the Senate Antitrust and Monopo ly Subcommitte, plans hearings as result of the investigation of price-fixing in the electrical equipment industry. Kefauver told a reporter that some senators also are talking about offering a bill providing for the placing of an outsider on the board of directors of any corporation convicted of breaking the antitrust laws. This would be somewhat simi lar, he said, to the court-appointed board of monitors for the Team sters Union. ' Kefauver said other measures likely to be considered by his sub committee would provide stiffer penalties for antitrust violations and require, as recently ordered by President Kennedy, the publi cizing of identical bids received by federal agencies. Kefauver said he hoped the hearings could be held in time for action at this session of Con gress. ; Workshop Held Friday "A person who writes is borne up like a swimmer," William Stafford of Lewis and Clark Col lege told an English teachers' workshop in Eugene Friday night. Stafford, a member of the Lewis and .Clark English faculty, discussed creative writing and its teaching at a dinner meeting. The workshop, devoted to cre ative writing, began Friday and continued through Saturday morning, under the sponsorship of the Lane County school super intendent's office. The swimmer, Stafford said, re acts to water; the writer reacts to the world around him, and reflects it in his writing. That is one reason why so much writing today is harsh and brutal, Stafford said it reflects the unrest and turmoil of society. Other speakers during the two day session included Raymond Kehl, chairman of the South Eu gene High School department of English; Mrs. Mildred Gilbertson, writer of children's stories; Ralph Salisbury, of the University of Oregon English department, and Howard C. Zimmerman, of the Willamette High School English department. About 70 teachers attended. increase their reliability and adaptation to new delivery sys tems. Communist probes into free world areas present the question militarily, in opposing them. Both the United States and the Soviet Union have tactical size nuclear weapons. Early in the present administra tion, defense officials emphasized that the use of tactical-size nuclear weapons should not be precluded in situations short of general war. Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara made a point of this in presenting his budget proposals to Congress, which in cluded plans for strengthening the capability of fighting limited war with either conventional high-explosive weapons or atomic arms. The doctrine is that ordinary high-explosive weapons bombs. missiles,: rockets would be used unless and until the requirements for coping with aggressors, be cause of tactical situations or the fact that the enemy brought A- weapons into action, left no choice.1 One danger to which opponents of the doctrine point is that of escalation. Hard pressed, one side in a limited war explodes a single nuclear weapon . on . the battle field, then waits for the result. The other side fires two to show it is staying in the fight. The first side fires three. It goes on up', more explosions, bigger ex plosions, until the war is no longer limited. Fire Destroys Traffic Booth CORVALLIS OH The, state police arson squad was called in Saturday after an explosive fire destroyed a traffic check station on the Oregon State University campus. Campus police said a fire bomb apparently touched off the sta tion in the middle of Jefferson Street at the entrance to the campus. The station long has been the target of disgruntled students. It has been tipped over several times, presumably By students who objected to the fact that po lice at the station stopped all drivers except those with author ization to take cars onto the cam pus. The latest overturning of the station came Wednesday night in a student riot after a raid on women's dormitories. University officials Friday had the station, and another at 26th and Orchard, bolted to the pavement. The fire broke out about 3 a.m. UO Alum Named Assistant to Rusk Jeffrey C. Kitchen, former res ident of Bend and a University of Oregon graduate, Friday was named assistant to Secretary of State Dean Rusk. Kitchen, 40, will handle polit- tical-mihtary affairs for the State Department. The announcement said he will "deal with matters of mutual interest to the depart ments of state and defense." He served in the State Depart ment from 1945 to 1956. After that he was with the Rand Corp., which does research and con ducts studies for government agencies. In his new job, Kitchen will have the rank of deputy assis tant secretary of state.

Pay 10 Down 18 Months to Pay FPC Denies Bid For Dam Site WASHINGTON (UPI) The Federal Power Commission Fri day denied the Washington Pub lic Power Supply System permis sion to change its application to build the Nez Perce dam to in clude construction of the High Mountain Sheep project.
