Diplomatic toureei aaid they agreed to puth I strong diplo matic initiative in Moacow and in Laoi to save tiie neutrality and independence of the Southeast Asian kingdom. Heath told the House of Commons after Monday's talks: "We j were very clad Mr. Harriman Man Charged With Murder Of Crusader GADSDEN, Ala., Or) Sheriff Dewey Colvard swore out a first degree murder warrant Monday against I rural storekeeper in the rifle slaying of a civil rights crusader. The warrant accuses Floyd Simpson, 40-year-old father of six, of killing William L. Moore, of Baltimore. . Simpson was released on $3,000 bond. His case will go before grand Jury in Septem ber. . William M. Beck Sr. of Fort Payne, Ala., I former Alabama House speaker and close friend of segregationist Gov. George C. Wallace, Indicated he would de fend Simpson. Simpson had been held on an open charge since last Tuesday, two dsyi after Moore was shot to death. :-State and county officers con tinued Investigation of the Tues day night slaying of Moore, a H3 year-old postman who died from two bullet wounds in the head. Moore had said he was en route to Jackson, Miss., to give his views on integration to ov. Ross Barnett, ' ' Sheriff Colvard Indicated lhere was nothing new in the lease. "We don't know if anyone lis was lnvolvej," he said. He said all persons questioned previously have been cleared. Feelings ran high in the rural community of Collbran, about 80 miles to the northwest, where Simpson operated a gro cery and service station. Resi dents, predominantly millwork ri, showed strong hostility to Inquisitive strangers. : Simpson, who is slender and (raying, was described hy the Jtev. Russ Porl-r, who serves a Baptist church in Ihe com munity, as "a good, hard-working man." : The minister said Mrs. Simp ton and the six children, rang ing in age from 1 to 17, had Mended services at the church where he is pastor. Alter visit ing Mrs. Simpson Sunday at her request, Porter said she was greatly upset. felt this personal exchange would be useful. But we are anxious for the two co-chairmen of the Laos conference (Britain and Russia) to jointly he able to prevent the situation from becoming worse." Heath, ostensibly reflecting the mood of Monday's meeting with Harriman, said the present situation in Laos was not only dangerous to the countries al ready involved but also to Thai land. The cease-fire waa holding, he added, and this was a good op portunity for the International Control Commission to visit the area. Heath said Britain has been in touch also with the Red Chi nese government but had sol received an answer so far. He rejected the idea of reconvening the Geneva conference. One of the immediate plans is to get Ihe International Control Commission composed of In dia, Canada and Poland to put inspection teams into the Plain of Jara, the chief area of colli sion between the pro-Commu nist Pathet Lao forces and the Neutralist troops of Prince Sou vanna Phouma, the premier of the coalition government. Harriman, who met with Pre mier Nikita Khrushchev in Mos cow last week and with Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, has received the Kremlin's acknowl edgement "in principle" that joint Anglo-American-Soviet ac tion was necessary to resolve the Laos crisis. Macmillan endorsed this ac tion Monday and also backed the suggestion that the ambassadors of the three nations in Vientiane should keep close contact for on-the-spot Laos peace efforts.

PEARSON Of Iht t'alttd PreM InUraatloaaJ SALEM On a cordial note, the ways and means education subcommittee and the State Board of Higher Education moved Saturday to coordinate their positions on higher educa tion building. At the request of the legisla tive committee, a special board meeting was planned May 8 to comment on actions tentatively taken by the committee on the board's college building budget. Charles Holloway, vice presi dent of the board, expressed willingness to hold a special meeting. Chancellor R. E. Lieu allen said, "I think you'll find them willing to work toward the Solon Revives Cemetery Issue SALEM (Special) The University of Oregon should be doing something about getting at least part of the pioneer me morial cemetery property for expansion, Senator Alfred Cor bett, D-Portland, said Monday. Corbett raised the question in a Saturday meeting of a ways and means subcommittee which is considering the budget for the state system of higher edu cation. Monday, in elaboration, he said his suggestion is that the university "try and work out something so that at least part of the cemetery land can be used in a way that has commu nist support." He said there are areas around the fringes of the ceme tery that could be used and that some consolidation of graves would release land now being used for roadways and other services. The Ways and Means Com mittee is appropriating money for land purchases, the senator said, and would be interested in considering a plan to use some of the cemetery. The cemetery at 18th Avenue and University Street has been involved in litigation and legis lation for many years. goals you've outlined." What it seemed to mean is that the board will take another look at building nee; in terms of financial limits indicated by the committee. The committee, in turn, will listen to the board'! expression on how priorities and funding should be handled. The committee recently gave tentative approval to instruc tional projects worth $25 mil lion during the 1963-65 bien nium some in a bonding, self liquidating category, and others in a general fund category. The board was asked specific ally if it would like more flexi bility in setting priorities than the separate categories would allow. The committee indicated it is open to further consideration of three projects it omitted that were high on the board's priori ty list: Library construction or remodeling at Oregon State University, the University of Oregon, and Oregon College of Education. Rep. John Mosser, R-Beaver- ton, suggested the board also might want to comment on whether some of its "B" budget items for improving education might take priority over tome building requests. The meeting ranged over sev eral subjects: The subcommittee rejected a suggestion that higher educa tion donate $6,000 for planning of i private graduate study center in the Portland area. Private colleges already have donated such a sum. Members warned it would set a precedent in favor of further state support of the proposed center. Said Rep. Stafford Hansell, R Herm iston, of state aid, "now is th. time to knock it in the head." The subcommittee received a report from the state system indicating its decisions to data are equivalent to a net $1.8 mil lion reduction in the governor's proposed $82 million higher education budget. The main de cisions are a change in the student-teacher ratio and reduc tion in out-of-state students.
