Treaty Approved For Neutral Laos GENEVA 0PI The East-West conference on Laos Saturday formally approved a treaty pledging the independence and neutrality of that Southeast Asian kingdom amid recrimi nations and warnings exchanged between the United States and Red China. U.S. Secretary of Stale Dean Rusk reminded the Comnunists that the agreement must be scrupulously observed if it is to achieve its objective of end ing civil war and taking Laos out of the cold war. He stressc 1 that Laos' coalition government headed by Prince Souvanna phouma must unite the coun try's armed factions in a single army if it is to continue to exist. The United Stales insisted that the accords provide for integra tion of Laos' armed forces, but UAR Boosts Four Rockets CAIRO (if) President Gamal Abdel Nasser Saturday watched the Egyptian armed forces test and fire four single-stage rock ets from an unnamed base in the western desert, two of them capable of reaching Israel. The rickets are in large-scale production and are entirely made in the United Arab Re public, Nasser told newsmen half an hour after the fourth missile had vanished in clouds thousands of feet above the des ert. The only military significance of the rockets is contained in the range that they reach, said Nasser, who said two could land just south of Beirut apparent ly meaning Israel. The rockets, named Naked el Kaher (Conqueror) and El Zafir (Victorious), were launched two days before the 10th anniver sary of Nasser's revolution in Egypt. Range of the Kaher was given as about 360 miles and the smaller Zahir was said to be capable of flying 222 miles.

Rusk said the United States, by agreeing to sign the accord, does not imply recognition of all signers a reference to Red China and Communist Nor'h Viet Nam. He departed from his text to register objection to dis torting of fact in some of the Communist speeches, especially those of Chen Yi, Red China's foreign minister. Chen charged that the United States was perpetuating armed intervention in South Viet Nam, and declared the peace in Laos could not be regarded as con solidated "as long as the flames of war are kept alive in South Vict Ntim." Soviet Foreign Minister An drei A. Gromyko used glowing language to express his satis faction with the Laos agree ment. He told the delegates they had made it possible "to dispel the 'clouds of war' in yet an other corner of our planet, to errest bloodshed in Laos." The agreements approved Sat urday were the fruits of 14 months of negotiations. The delegates included the foreign ministers of 12 nations.

Maxwell D. Taylor, who .'stalked from the Pentagon m a row over hisenhower defense policy, is returning as top military chief. This time, he has the strongest White House backing. President Kennedy announced Friday that Taylor, his close personal military adviser, will replace Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitz er as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff this fall. Lemnitzer will become U.S. commander in chief in Europe and probably NATO supreme commander there after his 2 year term as JCS chairman runs out Sept. 30. In effect, Kennedy appeared to be easing out the Eisenhower-appointed JCS chairman who reportedly has been under a cloud since the Cuban inva sion disaster 15 months ago. These were the key moves in one of the biggest top military command shuffles in years. The shift was set in motion by Gen. Lauris Norstad's decision to re tire as NATO commander in Eu rope in November, after six years of service in that post. Lemnitzer will take his place perhaps for only a year. Overshadowed by those top level changes was Kennedy's announcement from his week end retreat at Hyannis Port, Mass., that Gen. George II. Decker will retire Sept. 30 at the end of his 2-year term as Army Chief of Staff. 2 Returned To Newport Two suspects captured near Creswcll Friday following a high speed, bullet-punctuated police chase have been returned to Newport in Lincoln County to face charges of assault and robbery while armed with a dan gerous weapon. Warrants for Joseph Ronald Haber, 19, of Tampa, Fla., and Blair Henry Record Jr., 20, of Seattle both identified as es capees from the Hillsboro Coun ty Prison in Florida were is sued Friday in connection with the robbery of a service station at Agate Beach, near Newport. Two young men and a girl took $5 in cash and $3 worth of gasoline. A knife reportedly was used in the robbery. The girl captured with the two men, Jeannette Dale l.osa, 15, of Seattle, was not charged. Sin. was held for a time at Skip worth Juvenile Home and then released to her parents. The chase occurred after State Policeman Allen F. Jacobs spotted their car on Highway 99 Vest, north of Eugene. He gave chase but lost it. Eugene policemen spotted the car again at Franklin Boulevard and Wal nut Street and chased it south on Highway 99. ing to police reports, but there was no indication of whether they sought treatment. Black was cited for failure to yield the right-of-way. The one-car mishap near Sagi naw occurred about 2:30 a.m. daylight, when a car driven by Eugene Frank Cutts. 40, of Cot tage Grove, left Highway 226 (old Highway 99) on a curve, rolled over several times, and broke off two trees before com ing to rest 307 feet from the highway, state police said. Cutts was taken to Cottage Grove Hospital with multiple laceratigns anri other possible injuries. He was reported in i tan wuuiiivu.

Gold berg announced Saturday settle ment of the weeks-long iron workers strike in parts of Ore gon and Washington. Goldberg 's announcement came after four days of nearly round the clock negotiations here between contractors, gov ernment officials and repre sentatives of tile Iron Workers Union. "I am glad to announce on behalf of myself and the direc tor of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, Wil liam E. Simkin, the settlement of the six-weeks-old strike of the Missile Strike Postponed For 60 Days WASHINGTON (tfl The ma chinist union announced Satur day a 60-day postponement of a threatened Monday strike dead line at U. S. missile plants and sites, as requested by President Kennedy. The announcement was made here by Vice President Jesse McGlon of the union, the AFL- CIO International Assn. of Ma- chinists, shortly after Kennedy appealed for a delay to permit a fact-finding panel to study the dispute. The union represents about 120,000 of the 150,000 aerospace industry workers who had been scheduled to strike major mis sile manufacturing plants at noon Monday. A spokesman said officials of the United Auto Workers Un ion, which represents the re maining 30,000 men, were meet ing in Los Angeles to consider the President's appeal, McGlon said in a statement that "the chief difficulty imped ing a full and direct settlement of the labor dispute is the path ological hostility of these com panies involved in the dispute toward organized labor." He added: "Nonetheless we have acced ed to the request of the Presi dent of the United States. We have extended the negotiating deadline and directed our mem bers in the aerospace industry to work wholeheartedly with the President's panel and any other appropriate agency to bring about a fair and just set tlement." "Work will continue without interruption at all plants and sites covered by the President's message. Luzon Battered MANILA Ml Flood and fire battered the Philippines' main island of Luzon Saturday.

With four men already under arrest, about the only one with any thing left to laug1- about Satur day is a still-missing, mysterious "Mr. X." And, authorities say, they know Mr. X's identity, so ir,y laughs may be short-lived in 1 fast-breaking case of the securi ties that disappeared from the big brokerage house of Bache tc Co. here. 2 Die, 3 Injured In Coast Crash NEWPORT (UPD Two per sons were killed and three others injured seriously when their car left U.S. Highway 101 on Otter Crest Friday night.

Gold berg said in a statement. "All construction workers in the Pacific Northwest under the terms of settlement of both the unions involved and the contrac tors have agreed to resume work and operations immediately. "On the money issues remain ing in dispute between these parties they have agreed to the recommendations of myself and Mr. Simkin to accept the find ings of a 4-man team of media tors headed by Prof. John T.

Roberts Co. of Eu gene Friday night submitted the apparent lowest of three bids for construction of Eu gene's new city hall. Roberts' basic bid is $2,053, 541. The Vik Construction Co., also of Eugene, bid $2,085,000. Alcan Pacific Co., of Bcaverton, bid $2,088,977. Four other contractors who took out plana and specifica tions for the building did not submit bids. Roberts bid Is about $200,000 over the $1,850,000 the city has budgeted for the job. Architect James Longwood said he is confident enough items can be trimmed from the project to bring the contract within the budgeted sum pro vided a city attorney's ruling supports negotiating a contract with the low bidder. Longwood is a partner in the architectural firm o Stafford, Morin and Longwood, designers of the city hall. Bids Under Study More than 50 architects, sup pliers, subcontractors and others interested in the project crowded into the council cham bers for the bid opening. City Manager Hugh McKinley told them that the bids will be taken under study and a recom mendation will be presented to the Eugene City Council when it meets Monday night. If there are legal barriers to The case replete with slock smuggling under clothing, a buried treasure in securities, and an FBI man who posed as a crooked stock buyer came to a head fnday with lour arrests in two states. Those seized were the alleged "inside men," the so-called trusted employe who carried the stocks from a vault and out of the office concealed under his clothing, and the brother of a delegate to the 1957 Apalachln, N.Y., gangland convention. Arrested in New York were Gor.lon A. Tallman, 30, a stock record clerk in Bathe's Wall St office, which disclosed tho mil lion-plus theft earlier thii month, and Robert J. Dodge, ?4 an unemployed truck driver. Both are from New York City. FBI agents in Newark, N.J., arrested Joseph George Marti nclh, 48, Jersey City, N.J., and Johr. Lombardozzi, 36, Brook lyn, brother of Carmine Lom bardozzi, who attended the Apalachin gangland convention. Martinelli and LombardozzP were seized after supposedly closing a deal to sell S2(XI.X in stolen blue chi stocks. The buyer turned out to be, an FBI undercover man. New Yk Dist. Atty. Frank S. Hian said the $1.2 million thcte started out as a joke. Tallman and Dodge, lift dis trict attorney Slid, got into a 4oklng conversation in a bar oom about what they could do if they had all the money rep resented by stocks which Tail man bandied every day. "I expect these mediators to make their recommendations ex peditiously. "I want to express my appre ciation to Mr. Simkin, Asst. Sec retary James J. Reynolds, Pro fessor Dunlop, the other medi ators and the parties for co operating together diligently to solve this protracted dispute." The strike began in the Seat tle area May 22, spread to Ore gon and southwest Washington May 28 and to the Spokane area June 20. Iron Workers at first picketed only those projects where their work was assigned to members of other unions. Contractors shut down most major construction projects in retaliation, however, and the situation remained stalemated until the mediations began in Washington on Wednesday. Last week, Oregon Gov. Mark O. Hatfield issued an invitation to both sides to meet in his of fice to settle the dispute, but union negotiators did not get there. They said they had not been nntilied far enough in ad vance. On July 14, the invitation negotiating a contract within the budget, new bids will have to bo called on the project. There were a number of al ternates specified in tho bid call. By eliminating three of the alternates, approximately $50,000 could be cut from the contract cost. These includo pre cast trim for planters, a second elevator unit and an auxiliary generator, Longwood, scanning the rows of figures that make up the sub-contractors' bids on a proj ect the size of the city hall, termed them "extremely good." Longwood said the current iron workers' strike undoubted ly affected the number of bids submitted on the project. Plans Returned He said several prospective bidders returned their sets of plans and specifications without bidding because of the labor tie up. Federal Court Order Negro Protest March Banned ALBANY, Ga. ID Mayor Asa D. Kelley Jr., disclosed Saturday.that a federal judge has enjoined Negroes from staging mass demonstrations, marching or boycotting in this racially-troubled southwest Georgia city. ' The sweeping court order came only hours before Negroes headed by Martin Luther King Jr. planned a march on city hall in protest of segregation practices. The temporary injunction was issued by Judge J. Robert Elliott of the U.S. District Court at Columbus after a conference late Fri day night with Kelley and Uty Atty. Grady Rawls. Elliott's order barred any of the Negro organizations or other persons from "continuing to sponsor, finance or encourage unlawful picketing, from engag ing in or practicing any unlaw ful congregating or marching, or boycotting in restraint of trade." Elliott held that protest ac tivities by the Negroes "threat en mob violence and tend to deny other citizens of the city equal protection of the laws." Ironically, the order was bas ed in part on the 14th Amend ment to the U. S. Constitution which Negroes have used re peatedly in their desegregation fight. In releasing copies of tho in junction, Kelley said the city had decided to act again "out side agitators and othci unde sirable elements creating dis turbances and the possibility of mass violence." . The ayor emphasized that assistance was not being sought from federal marshals except or the serving of t, court or der on the defendants. There was no Immediate re action from King or the other leaders of e Negro organiza tions. Elliollsct hearing for July in i All . V. l. . 1 ,u J ou III muaiiy uii wueiiicr uio ill junction should be made perma nent. With white officialdom refus ing to negotiate, the Negroes had planned a late afternoon ynarch on City HalL to meet in Washington came from Simkin's office and both sides promptly accepted. The dispute has shut down such projects as the Hilton Ho tel and Standard Insurance Plaza in Portland, the John Day Lock and Dam on the Columbia River, and various highway and school building projects throughout the Northwest. Approximately 1,500 ironwork ers in the Seattle area, 650 in the Spokane area and 700 in the Portland area were involved in the strike. Other thousands of workers were affected by the contractors' shutdown of the projects. Meetings began here on Wed nesday in a strong effort at set tlement of the issues, which in cluded wages, pensions, work shifts, hiring clauses and work conditions. It was learned Friday that ' the differences had simmered down mainly to the wage is sues. Friday's meeting extended into this morning, folding final ly at 4:30 a.m. Earlier sessions were almost as lengthy. Backlogs of work piling up because of tho extended labor shutdown and uncertainty over' labor costs in iron and steel phases of tho project were fac tors which limited the number' of bidders, he said. However, Longwood noted that the basic bids of the three, contractors were all extremely close. "Whenever you've got bids figured that close, you know you've got good ones," he said.. If Gale Roberts wins a con-' tract on his low bid, he'll be well on his way toward making a clean sweep of construction on the major projects of Eu gene's civic center. He was the successful bidder on tho Lane County Courthouse, the court house parking facility, and the new stale office building. He also built the new U.S. National Bank bldg. at Eighth and Wil lamette, adjacent to the civic center area.
