Pine EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Friday. April 13. 1962 Berlin Talks Access First Agenda Item By JOHN M. 1IIGHTOWER Of tilt Aiiocimlcd Preii WASHINGTON The new round of U.S.-Soviet talks on the possibility of a Berlin settlement is expected to concentrate at thu outset on the problem of guaranteed access for Western powers between West Germany and Berlin. The first session will be held here Monday by Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Soviet Ambassador Anatoly F. Dobrynin. The United States set forth its ideas on the requirements of an access agreement in an informal working paper submitted to Allied governments earlier this week in preparation for the talks. The U.S. proposal, circulated for allied reaction and com- Radical Party Eases Crisis In Argentina BUENOS AIRES IUPD The . political crisis in Argentina eased considerably Friday fol lowing the powerful Radical In transigent party's acceptance of President Jose Maria Guidos reform of the presidential suc cession law. The Radical Intransigents, who virtually rule Argentina's senate, made modifications Thursday night but left un touched Guido's fundamental clause the extension from 30 to 180 days the period in which the interim president must call elections when a vacancy occurs in the presidency. The chamber of deputies which meets' Monday is ex pected to go along with the Senate. I The newspaper La Nacion said the cabinet formed by Guido was split widely on what policy to follow with respect to the root of the political crisis what to do about the follow ers of ousted dictator Juan D. Peron and their election vic tories of last March IB. ' The Peronists won 11 gov ernorships and 43 congressional seats. Their leaders have threat ened civil war if the Peronist victories are not recognized. , The armed forces, on the other hand, permitted Guido to take the presidency only be cause he pledged to do away with Pcronism in Argentina. . Guido and most of the na tion's big political parties favor following a legal line in han dling the Peronist problem. The army has assured Guido of its aupport. The navy, however, fa vors a hard-line policy towards the Peronists. Agent Claims Search Illegal " WIESBADEN, Germany Ml A special American agent testi fied Friday at the espionage trial of U.S. Air Force Capt. Joseph P. Kauffman that anoth er agent searched Kauffman's California apartment without a aearch warrant. Richard A. Byea Jr. told Col. James C. Cheney, Jacksonville, Fla., who is presiding as judge at the court-martial, that Agent Raymond White searched Kauff man's home in Atwatcr, Calif., Dcfore an official search was made with a warrant on Dec. 8 1861. The defense has challenged evidence obtained in the search es. Byea identified himself and White as special investigators from Castle Air Force Base, Calif, He had refused to an swer questions by Kauffman's civilian lawyer, George Latimer of Salt Lake City, Utah, on White's search Thursday be cause, he said, it involved classi fied investigation methods. Kauffman, a native of Rut land, Vt., is accused of supply ing the East German Commu nists with information on U.S. Air Force installations, their tactical and personnel strength, and with data on Air Force offi cers. He has pleaded innocent. Retired Editor Dies LONG BEACH, Calif. (UPD Frank B. Strecter, former edi tor of the Grants Pass Daily Courier, died here Thursday. He was 74.

The possibility was raised that this could be arranged under an in ternational authority that has operational control of the sup ply line, Informants said this position on the critical access issue was substantially the same as that taken by Rusk in talks at Gene va last month with Soviet For eign Minister Andrei A. Gromy- ko. Soviet Proposal So far as could be learned from official sources, the United States still considers totally un acceptable a Soviet counterpro posal for East German control of the supply lines under limited supervision of an International authority. Presumably, what Rusk wants to explore further is whether the Soviet Union acceptance of the concept of an international authority provides an opening to bring the conflicting U.S. and Soviet positions closer to gether. The Soviet proposal was hinged on a number of condi tions aimed at obtaining the withdrawal of Western forces from West Berlin and winning recognition for the East Ger man Communist regime. The Western powers, by con trast, remain firmly committed to the maintenance of their pro tective forces in isolated West Berlin and to some kind of guar antees against Communist inter ference with the flow of traffic between West Berlin and West Germany. Settlement Possible Gen. Lucius D. Clay, who is resigning as President Kenne dy's special representative in West Berlin, said after a meet ing with Rusk Thursday that he thinks a Berlin settlement may be possible. The chances have been improved by the lessening of tensions since the Rusk-Gro- myko talks in Geneva, he said. Administration officials con tinue to warn, however, that the Soviets, or the East Germans with Soviet support, can precip itate a new crisis at any moment by renewing harassment of traf fic, particularly in the air corri dor. Reports circulated in West Germany that Kennedy had sent a personal message to Chancel lor Konrad Adenauer on the problem of Berlin access and that Adenauer was planning to come to Washington to consult with the President. Officials here denied there was any presi dential message to Adenauer and said they had no knowledge of any plans by the chancellor to come to Washington.

By Administration Church School Bill WritenOfffor'62 By JOE HALL Of tb Associated Preii WASHINGTON The Ken nedy administration appears to have written off for this year a school bill that had been de signed to ease the problem of aid for church schools. Secretary of Welfare Abra ham A. Ribicoff indicated this Thursday by failing to include the bill in a list of education measures the President is push ing for action on. The bill, a broadening nf the 1958 National Defense Educa tion Act, was approved by the Senate Labor Committee last year and has been on the Senate calendar ready for debate since July 1961. The Senate Education sub committee spent more hours working on this complex bill last year than on any other ad ministration proposal. Won't Call It Up But Senate leadership sources confirmed Friday there were no plans now to call it up for at tempted passage in 1962. The controversial feature of the bill is a S375-million loan provision for construction of classrooms for specified sub jects in parochial and other private schools. Administration lieu tenants drew up this provision to ease the unhappiness of the church schools at being excluded from the $2.55-biIlion general aid school bill passed by the Senate last year. At one point, Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield of Mon (ana said the defense education LYONS SPECIAL PURCHASE SALE Tfffffe Your Outdated Refrigerator j MANY OTHER MODELS AT TERRIFIC SAVINGS TO YOU! NO MONEY DOWN LOW EASY PAYMENTS START IN JUNE o measure with its private school loan feature would follow promptly after the general bill. But signals were switched after a blowup in the House, caused in part by the religious controversy, that killed all edu cation legislation in 1961. Put Off a Year Ribicoff said he would like to see the bill passed now. But he explained that his under standing was that the whole matter would be put over until 1963. Aside from the private school loan provision, the defense education bill would greatly in crease funds for college student loans; add English and physical fitness to the subjects whose teaching was aided under the original act (mathematics, sci ence and modern foreign lang uages); increase the number of graduate fellowships; provide grant for materials and equip ment to be used in college courses; set up a new program of international affairs studies, and furnish money for library improvement programs. The five education bills which Ribicoff listed as on the 1962 program include the general bill which appears to have no chance in the House; a college bill which the House Rules Com mittee has blocked; a medical education bill which has cleared the House Commerce Commit tee but is stuck in rules; a bill to improve the quality of grade and high school teaching on which the Senate Education sub committee completed hearings Thursday, and an adult literacy bill still in the hearings stage, hiniii Soviets Insist On Unpoliced Moratorium Zorin Denounces U.S., Britain Stand GENEVA OB The Soviet Un ion attempted Friday to indict the United States and Britan be fore world public opinion for refusing to accept an unpoliced moratorium on nuclear weapons tests. Tbe American and British delegations rejected allegations by Soviet Deputy Foreign Min ister Valerian A. Zorin before the 17-nation general disarma ment conference. The eight mid dle group nations in the con ference refrained from getting drawn into a diplomatic cross fire between the big nuclear powers. Zorin argued that the pro posal for a moratorium did not come from the Soviet Union but from' India and some of the other, countries at the confer ence which want to see all test ing stopped. He said the United States and Britain could not find the courage to reply to these small powera. The American and British delegations turned down the moratorium idea Thursday when Zorin specifically asked them a yes or no question. Zorin said Indian Delegate Arthur F. Lall was the author of the moratorium idea. Western sources told news men after the session that re marks Zorin directed to the United States and Britain were abusive in tone and seemed to be pitched on the cold war level, U.S. Ambassador Arthur H. Dean and British Minister of State Joseph B. Godber told the conference they answered Zorin on the moratorium idea because that was specifically a Russian proposal. Dean expressed regret that the eight nonaligned countries at the table had failed to find a way to get the Soviet Union to change its rigid policy blocking the conclusion of a test ban treaty. Budget Doubled For Peace Corps WASHINGTON WV-Congress has voted to more than double the Peace Corps budget and let the agency sign up thousands of new volunteers. The Senate passed the auth orization bill Thursday and sent it to President Kennedy, who had asked for the expansion. Under the measure, Kennedy is authorized to spend $63.75 million to put 9,970 volunteers into the corps by the fall of 1963. The Peace Corps now has about 900 volunteers, but ex pects to have 2,400 on its roster by June 30, and 5,100 by next fall.

Production of cancer in labor atory animals with a virus that commonly causes a severe type of respiratory cold in humans was reported Friday. The achievement was an nounced by a group of Texas researchers who said tumors were produced in hamsters with one type of adenovirus a microbe first isolated from diseased human aden oids nine years ago and now known to have various strains. Effective vaccine against some strains have been developed. And the American Cancer Society, which helped support the Texas research, said the work provides a new stimulus to the theory that some hu man cancers could be caused by viruses and thus are pos sibly open to treatment or prevention by vaccines. But the ACS, in a report released simultaneously with the formal announcement by the Texas group, stressed that production of the hamster cancers with a virus respon sible for another type of hu man ailment by no means constitutes proof that human cancers are virus-caused. Dr. John J. Trentin of Bay lor University College of Med icine told about the hamster tumor research in a report prepared for the annual meet ing of the American Assn. for Cancer Research, one of the world's leading organizations of cancer investigators. Co-authors of the report were Dr. Yoshiro Yabe, also of Baylor, and Dr. Grant Tay LYONS RCAMRLPML ; AUTOMATIC WASHER PAY ONLY $200 A WEEK! Hurry . on! i 8 to sell at this low price! CLOSE OUT!

Lawmakers End Session JUNEAU, Alaska W Alas ka's 81-day legislative aession, much of it marked by a wrangle over the state's highway depart ment, ended Thursday with rec ord appropriations. The legislature approved gen eral appropriations of nearly $69.5 million for fiscal 1963, up nearly $14 million from the cur rent fiscal year. Tbe session had hardly begun when Democratic Gov. William M. Egan fired the highway chief, former Wyoming engi neer Thurman D. Shepard. A long Senate committee in vestigation followed, several other highway officials were dismissed or resigned, and the division of highways was made a separate state department. Alaska has annual legislative sessions. This was the second since statehood. License Assigned WASHINGTON W Assign-, ment of the license of Radio Station KABY, Albany, Ore., to Milton Viken and Peter Ryan was authorized Thursday by the Com munications Commission. The consideration was $60,000. SPRING SPECIAL!! REDUCED TO ONLY 2-SPEED, 2 AUTOMATIC Simply dial NORMAL action for regu lars, GENTLE for delicate fabrics.

That's one of a number of the various types of adeno virus that constitute a com mon source of respiratory in fection among both children and adults. The type of respiratory ail ment caused by the adenovir uses differs from the garden variety of common cold in sev eral respects: 1. Tbe onset is usually more gradual. 2. Tbe symptoms including fever, chills, runny nose, wa tering eyes, sore throat, hoarseness, wheezing, cough and a general down-in-the-dumps feeling are more se vere. 3. The malady, disabling but seldom going on to furth er compllications, lasts longer than an ordinary cold. Trentin said that in a sep arate study it was found that more than 25 per cent of pati ents treated for a variety of diseases at one hospital had been exposed and were im mune to the same kind of vi rus used in the hamster studies. "It is not yet known," said the American Cancer Society's report, "how many healthy people have the virus, which can lie dormant for many years following infection in childhood, to break loose again and again later in life." The ACS report said scien tists would next try to deter mine whether adenoviruses could cause cancer in new born monkeys or other pri mates the better to appraise whether the Texas work could have any possible significance as regards human cancer. 4- with acceptable trad $279.95 without trade - CYCLE WASHER OPEN FRIDAYS 'TIL 9 1203 WILLAMETTE DJ 3-0388 . 1203 WILLAMETTE Dl 5-0388
