Cavalry Gen. Enrique Rauch, who staged a lightning rebellion against the army high command and launched a column of tanks and troop carriers against the capital in support of the presi dent, told newsmen the truce was reached at a summit meet ing of military chiefs. Gen. Raul Poggi, the army commander whose artillery and infantry units had entrenched around the war ministry, waved in disgust to newsmen and re fused to talk as he left the meeting at President Guido's residence. r. jtn ; v- v , Vi -I'ii ifirrti)4 Tiff nff-fii " "YimTrt Easy, Dad (Register-Guard photo by Phil Grcnon) "Careful, Dad . . ."

Proposed Hospital in Eugene Firms No. 1 Oregon Project By JERRY UHRHAMMER ' or the Register-Guard California hospital builder Al len G. TatKln said Friday that a proposed 100-bcd hospital in Eugene is his firm's "number one Oregon project" but he's not closing the door on the pos sibility of building hospitals in other Oregon communities too. Tatkin, of Los Angeles, Calif., was asked by the Register-Guard about rumors that he is also planning to build hospitals In Baker, Bend and Klamath Falls. "We're not at liberty to say anything yet of that sort," he answered. Tatkin, who says he has built more than 35 hospitals in other states, said his firm specializes in building hospitals and medi cal buildings, but does not oper ate them. "Naturally," he said, "we build hospitals wncre we feel Pope John Gives Message of Peace VATICAN CITY (UPD Pope John XXIII Saturday called for a "great reawakening" of Chris tianity to bring "a new Easter morning" of faith to the trou bled world. The pontiff concluded his traditional Easter message, broadcast to both the free and Communist world, with a special blessing to "all men without ex ception." "You look upon the Pope this year with a particularly joyous expression," he said in a 1,800, word speech. "You wish to ac company him up to the thresh old of the Ecumenical council which promises to be like Eas ter, a great awakening, a strong incentive to walk more confi dently in the ways of God." Less than two hours after Pope John's speech, the Easter vigil begins in Rome's basilicas .and churches. One notable ex- 2 Services At 6 A.M. Two union Easter Sunrise ser vices are planned early Sunday in the Eugene-Springfield area and the weatherman is predict ing partly cloudy skies and a slight warming trend during the day. In Eugene, the Ministerial Assn. and the University Relig ious Council are co-sponsoring a program at 6 a.m. in McArthur Court. This year's program will feature University of Oregon musical groups under the direc tion of Max D. Risinger, associ ate professor of music at the university. Narration will be by Mrs. Charles Sikes. , Springfield's union service, sponsored by the Springfield Ministerial Assn., is scheduled for 8 a m. in the Willamalane Memorial Bldg. The Rev.

In Jerusalem, Christians turn ed their attention from mourn- jng for Jesus Christ's crucifixion on Good Friday to the joyous celebration of his resurrection on Easter Sunday. Roman Catholics held the "Blessing of the Holy Fire" service in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, when the depu ty Latin patriarch changed from purple to white vestments as a prelude to the day of the resur rection. A cool springlike day with blue skies and white clouds added to the festive mood of the thousands of Christian pilgrims from all over the world who filled the city to mark the day on the spot where Christ was beaten and crucified nearly 2,000 years ago. Jerusalem's small hotels were filled and in the crowded churches and bazaars, the tongues of many lands were heard over the cries of the ped dlers. Good Friday observances in cluded prayers and chants by Roman Catholics in English, Ar abic. German, Italian, French, Spanish and Latin. there "Is a nced. And we under stand Oregon needs hospitals. But any plan he may have for the state, said Tatkin, are strictly in the talk stage. We have made no contacts." Tatkin recently announced plans to build a 100-bed hospi tal, a proprietary (profit-mak ing) institution, in Eugene. Ac cording to the announced plans, Tatkin and a group of investors which he heads would finance and build the hospital; the op eration would be taken over by an operating corporation which would be headed by Gilbert Nee, a California hospital man agement consultant. A possible basis for the rumor that Tatkin might build a hospital in Klamath Falls is the report that Eugene builder Roy Parmenter, associated with Tatkin in the plans for the new hospital in Eugene, is inter ested in constructing a hospital there. Parmenter confirmed Friday that he has talked with some doctors in Klamath Falls about construction of a new hospital but said Tatkin isn't connected with that project. "Klamath Falls is purely on my own," he said. But any plans for Klamath Falls are "purely talk so far,1 he said. Klamath Falls presently has two doctor-owned hospitals, but architectural work has been authorized by a local hospital committee on a proposed 167- bed Presbyterian Intercommu nity Hospital there. Guido Wins Truce From Angry Officers The clash of these two gen erals' views brought the most warlike preparations this nation has seen since dictator Juan D. Peron was overthrown seven years ago. The two generals had mar shaled the nation's army behind them in opposing camps as the result of a crisis triggered by Guido's appointments of Rauch, to succeed Poggi, and War Sec retary Gen. Marino Bartolome Carrera. Rauch, who seemed to have gained the support of most of the army, told newsmen the truce was achieved on the basis of a formula proposed by Guido himself. He said he accepted the solu tion which included an order that his rebellious troops be dis persed and sent back to their barracks. The solution, he added, in cluded the appointment of a new war secretary, whose name he would not disclose. "My honor as a military man has been satisfied," he said, add ing that he had confidence in the new army secretary and that Guido's solution was "satisfac tory for all and for the good of the nation." Rauch launched his uprising from Campo de Mayo, Argen tina's most important military camp, with the demand that Guido be allowed to seek a con stitutional solution of the Peron ism problem "without ultima tums." The army, navy and air force secretaries, as spokesmen for the military, had demanded that Guido sign dictatorial decrees voiding elections last -March 18 in which Pcronists won upset victories. Guido's summons to a high level meeting of generals to avert bloodshed came dramatic ally as tanks and artillery faced each other. Shortly before General Rauch drove through the heavily guarded gates of the president's residence he had succeeded in occupying the national radio with about 60 soldiers. General Poggi, whom Rauch threatened to blast out of the ministry unless he surrendered his office, drove up minutes la ter. Rear Adm. Gaston Clement, another of the three tough mili tary chiefs who have demanded that Guido suppress the Peron istas by dictatorial decree, drove in, too. Other cars brought a collec tion of generals. General Rauch, a cavalry lead er, apparently had in hand mors than 12,000 troops and 130 Sherman tanks from an armored regiment at Campo de Mayo, Ar gentina's biggest military estab lishment. Poggi's forces included the 1st and 2nd infantry divisions in Pa lermo suburb directly across the path of Hauch's armored column. Despite Salan Capture Police Battle Angry Mob In Athens ATHENS, Greece Wl The government clamped strict se curity measures on Athens Sat urday after riot police used armored vehicles and tear gas to break up anti-government riots that injured 80 persons. Police, backed by an estimat ed 7,000 army reinforcements, battled thousands of demon strators from sunset to midnight as street fighting swept across the city. More than 240 demon strators were arrested. Police said 20 rioters and 10 policemen were seriously injured. Premier Constantine Caraman- lis' pro - Western government blamed the violence on leftist extremists and ordered army troops and riot police to patrol Athens streets.

DYNAN or the Afiocl.ted Frets PARIS Ex-Gen. Raoul Salan, captured chief of the European Secret Army, was formally charged Saturday with attacking the authority of the state. The charge carries the death penalty. Prison officials said Salan appeared relaxed as the complaint was read to him, a formality required by French law within 48 hours of arrest. Salan's supporters in the bloody campaign to keep Algeria French reeled under the impact of his arrest. The secret army vowed to continue its desperate battle against Algerian independence, but many observers felt Salan's capture presented a crippling and possible death blow to the underground organization. East, West Berlin Police Trade Shots Salan, one of France's most decorated soldiers, was the great rallying symbol to several thousand European right-wingers and French army deserters. The extremists have been terrorizing Algerian Moslems in hopes of forcing Moslem retaliation that would prompt the government to call off plans for self-determination in Algeria. Word of Salan's capture in the heart of Algiers Friday plung ed Algeria's European population into gloom. "We are lost," said a European resident of Algiers, The news was hailed by the Algerian nationalist government in exile, stationed in Tunis. It declared, "The fcrrest of the bandit chief Salan will not fail to have repercussions on the criminal action of the fascist commandos." Salan was flown to Paris handcuffed and rushed to Sante Prison. Some 300 of his follow- Algiers Terrorists Kill 2 Policemen reou in detiance or. a govern ment ban on mass gatherings. Papandreou, whose antigov- ernment campaign has support from the left, called the rally to denounce results of last Oct tober's national election in which Caramanlis chalked up a landslide. Police let about 800 followers of the Center Union into the square where Papandreou was speaking, then sealed it off. Those who couia not get to the meeting started to taunt po lice. The clashes followed. When the crowd showered police with stones, authorities broke out tear gas grenades ana scattered the rioters.

JFK Taps Key to Open Seattle Fair SEATTLE W President Kennedy officially opened the six-month Seattle World's Fair at noon Saturday with the tap of a gold telegraph key from far-off Florida. The signal, by a device from a bygone era, rode piggybatk across the country on a "cap tured" radio wave which left a star 10.000 light years ago. It set in motion the nation's fir' international fair since 1940. Tens of thoiuands of visit ors, for whom the gates to the 74-acre grounds were thrown open an hour earlier, cheered the start 'of the Century 21 Exposition and the vacation ing President's brief words of praise telephoned from Palm Beach, Fla. Before that. Secretary of Commerce Luther H. Hodges complimented the fair as a "magnificent achievement" de picting as never before the advancements of science in a world pushing steadily farther Into the reaches of space. Hofjgrj, the government's e top representative at the open ing day ceremonies, said no other fair had provided such cultural and scientific empha sis. Washington Gov. 'Albert D. Rosellini hail.d the fair as "epitomizing the dyifamic vi tality of the people of our great state." Sen. Warren G.' Magnuson, 1 Wash., said, "We art opening the greatest ex position in the history of man." Mayor Gordon S. Clin ton welcomed fairgoers to the city. e Entertainer Danny Kaye also read what was called the crcda of the Century 21 Expo sition, which said the fair "celebrates the gathering, of men from all nations who share common quest for broader knowledge and under standing." A dozen foreign ambassa dors or high government offi cials were on hand for the program, as was Robert Moses, president ol New York's 1964 fair. Fighter Plane Hits Homes Near Seattle SEATTLE un An Air Force F-102 fighter plane, one of a flight saluting the opening of the Seattle World's Fair, crashed into a residential area north of Seattle Saturday. Police reported three houses were demolished and three more were set on fire. King County sheriff's office said two bodies were recovered from the wreckage. The plane's pilot, Capt. Jo seph Wildt, parachuted safely into Lake Washington after sounding a distress call over his radio. He was picked up by a private boat and taken, appar ently uninjured, to the Sand Point Naval Station hospital, The crash of the plane, based at Paine Field north of Seattle, occurred about a block and a half south of the King-Snohomish County line. Flames leaped from 35 to 40 feet high. "Within 10 minutes, one house was completely gone said one observer. "The plane was disintegrated. No piece was longer than four feet. Roberts Bid Low For School Project The Gale M. Roberts Con struction Co. submitted the ap parent low bid Saturday after noon for the construction of the Edgcwood Elementary School The" Roberts bid $276,2S2 was lower than those entered by the Vik Construction Co. and W. E. Yoftl construction uo. Vik's bid was $277,000, Youcfs, $278,906. All three firms are from Eugene. The rfUgcne School Boatd expected to announce the win ner of the contract at a meeting giers, as they were Friday the western city of Oran. OAS gunmen also killed eight Arabs In Algiers Saturday, in creasing the year's' casualty' toll to 3,819 dead and 8,130 wounded. There was little other direct European reaction to Salan capture. Most streets were quiet as persons stayed indoors out of a heavy rain. Slogans appeared overnight, scrawled on walls in the Bab-el- Oued European quarters. One read: "Salan is Arrested but Gardy, Gardes, Goddard and Su- sini Remain." They are OAS leaders still on the loose in Algeria. France followed up its cap ture of Salan by pouring troops into Algeria to reinforce its gar rison in Oran, stronghold of the anti-Moslem underground. Two squadrons of mobile gen darmes arrived in Oran last night. The capture of Salan was a strong blow to President Char les de Gaulle's European foes, but they vowed they would con tinue to fight his plan to give Algeria back to the Moslems. ers demonstrated outside the prison, and imprisoned sympa thizers rioted and set fire to a wooden partition Inside., Authorities said 15 prisoners, all of-them right-wing extrem. ists, and five police were In jured in the outburst. The firs was brought under control sev eral hours after Salan's arrival. Solan's capture and the arrest March 25 of the secret arrnya No. 2 leader ex-Gen. EdnJrif. Jouhaud indicated a serio m penetration of the prganlzation'A network. Observers said the govern ment drive against the terrorists could lead to further arrests of those left in command former Gen. Paul Hardy and several colonels. The arrest of Salan, 63, a former five-star general, re moved from circulation the last of four major figures in the abortive general's revolt against De Gaulle In April 1961, The other three are Jouhaud and former Gens. Maurice Challe and Andre Zeller. The last two surrendered after the insurrection failed and were sentenced to 15 years in prison. Salan already had been sen tenced to death In absentia. But under French law, the sentence will be set aside and he will be tried in person, probably within a few weeks. The charges will stem from the revolt and his secret army leadership. Diaz-Infante Meets Press -and Police TUCSON, Ariz. The man who has threatened an armed revolt in Mexico met the press in Tucson Friday night. Then he met the police and sheriff's deputies. Today, Marcantonio Diaz-Infante, 39, is in the Santa Cruz County jail in Nogalcs, Ariz., less than a mile from the Mexican border. Sheriff's deputies took him there because he is wanted for alleged nonpayment of a $1,400 hotel bill. , The latest episode in the story of the man who styles himself "provisional president of Mexico" began Friday when newsmen were told to call a woman known only as Maria. They did and Maria advised them of the news conference. . Diaz-Infante turned out to be a short, barrel-chested mart' with a mustache. A sheriff's deputy later estimated his weight at 200 pounds and his height at 5-feet-6. He wore field boots, a brown leather jacket, brown trousers and a tan shirt A pink bandana was knotted around his neck. The only identification he offered newsmen was a clipping from a 1955 newspaper. A radio newsman, however, said he had seen him before and had no doubt that the man was who he claimed to be. Diaz-Infante kept the doors of his Tucson motel room locked throughout the Hi hour press conference. His moods changed off and on from anger .to calmness. Occasionally, he gave a curt answer to a question, then apologized. ' He said his revolutionary group has been preparing for 13 years and now is ready for the revolution. Diaz-Infante said Communists had Infiltrated the Mexican government and if the United Nations wouldn't intervene, he and the members of the Zapata Movement were ready to use arms. . The movement kjd the U.N. to intervene earlier this week, but no action has been taken. He admitted that Tie dys have a criminal record as reported earftcr by California police and Mexican officials. Said the insurggnt: "I wouldlike these charges not to be true. Unfortunately, some of them are, bytjhey are not true In thesmanncr Jhat they have Oieen represented." Monday. o
