(UPD Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower was en route to his Gettysburg, Pa., farm Wednesday after a nearly four month winter vacation on the Southern California desert. Eisenhower ended his stay with informal comments at trainside that touched on French President Charles de Gaulle, the 1964 presidential race, and the difference between writing war and personal memoirs. More than 500 persons were at the station as General and Mrs. Eisenhower boarded a pri vate car. "I like and admire President De Gaulle," he said in answer to a question. "I don't always agree with him, but he's a splen did man and a great patriot. When asked about the 1964 Republican presidential possi bilities he said there was still time for candidates to emerge. "I don t plan to take an ac tive part in the coming presi dential campaign," he said. "I'll support the Republican nominee of course, but I nave no fa vorites now." He said he devoted much of his time while here to writing and re-editine memoirs, which he laid proved more difficult than writing on the war in Eu rope. Tourism Check Move Opposed ASHLAND W There is op position to Senate Joint Reso lution 27, which would create a legislative interim committee to study the adequacy of tourist facilities in Oregon. A letter has been sent to Sen. John D. Hare, chairman of the Senate Natural Resources Com mittee, by the Tourist and Rec reation Committee of the Ash land Chamber of Commerce. The concensus is that if si a study is necessary, it should be done by a professional firm to obtain the best possible re sults. The Senate resolution calls for not more than $50,000 to be spent on the study. north. Some districts reported a 97 per cent vote. It was estimated that the final voting total would run to be tween 93 and 95 per cent. While balloting was for oar- liamentary seats, the real issue was whether Premier Amintore Fanfani's experimental Socialist-backed "central-left" govern ment should continue. Crucial Test Many observers considered the election the most important in years and said it could deter mine Italy's political picture for the next decade. Early predictions were that many members of Fanfani's Christian Democratic party would desert and vote for the Liberals in opposition to the 'opening to the left." But is could not. be determined wheth er they would be strong enough to form a decisive factor. Sunday's voting was marred by a series of early morning bombs. Nine policemen and a fireman were injured. Six persons were injured in a series of pre-dawn bombings Sunday in Milan's central rail way station. Police blamed agi tators for greater local autono my in the Alto Adige (South Tyrol), a north Italian area that once belonged to Austria. The election could have im portant bearing on Italy's fu ture role in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the European Common Market. New Coalition Following a series of Chris tian Democratic governments formed with center and right- wing support, Fanfani last year established a coalition with the Republicans and Social Demo crats. To secure additional support, Fanfani made an alliance with Pietro Nenni's Socalists which have had close ties with the Communists in the past. The Socialists have enabled the coa lition to stay in power with their strong support in Parlia ment. The price the government has paid so far for Socialist support has been nationalization of elec tricity, a controversial issue. Nenni's Socialists favor con tinued Italian membership in NATO, but they want the coun try to take a more "neutralist" attitude. fife Ph- ( T;-:sfc .....

Nel son A. Rockefeller smiled and declined comment Monday on a published report that he will marry recently divorced Marga retta Filler Murhpy May 18 or 19. A copyright story in Mon day's New York Mirror quoted an unidentified friend of the Rockefeller family as saying: 'The date will be Saturday, May 18, or Sunday, May 19. The ceremony will be performed at a Protestant Episcopal Church but not the one where Rocke feller usually worships." (The interdenominational Riverside Church on Riverside Drive.) Rockefeller, a potential 1964 GOP presidential candidate, met reporters at Westchester County Airport as he left for Cincinnati for a Republican din ner Monday night. Asked how he felt about the speculation and interest in his possible marriage, he said: "It's a tree country. You have to ex pect tnat it you re in puouc office." In answer to a question on what he plans to do during three-week gap in his schedule next month, he said: "Don't you ever take a vacation? He said shopped for a wedding outfit and traveling clothes in Phila delphia and New York after she obtained a divorce in Sun Val ley, Idaho, from Dr. James Slat er Murphy April 1. There has been considerable conjecture about the possible marriage plans of the 54-year-old governor and the 36-ycar-old socialite. The governor has refused to comment on Mrs. Murphy's divorce four weeks go just as he has refused to discuss his own divorce 13 months ago after 31 years of marriage.

Lie Detector Test Refused By 'Raider' NEW YORK I A New York City photographer tayt he re fused to take a lie detector test concerning his assertion that he participated in a Cuban exile bombing raid on Havana area oil refineries last week. Alexander I. Rorke Jr., 36, told a meeting of 150 anti-Cas tro Cubans Sunday night that U.S. customs officials in Miami asked him to take the test after he held a news conference there Sunday. Customs officials were not immediately available for com ment. Rorke flew back to New York following the news conference, in which he said his civil rights, and thos!i of his partner in a Waterbury, Conn., plane charter service, were being violated by the U.S. government. Subject to Fines An official of the Federal Avi ation Agency said earlier Sun day that the FAA had notified Rorke and his partner, Geoffrey Sullivan, that they are subject to fines of $13,000 each if it is proved tncy violated civil air regulations by flying to and from Cuba. It is i rather serious thing for the government to charge us with violations and say we are to be fined for flying to Cuba and back, because it implies that the United States is de fenseless," Rorke told newsmen in Miami. Rorke said in Miami that if the government charges were true, it meant he had left and returned to the United States without being detected by U.S. radar. In fact, he said, his starting point for the Cuban raid wasn't the continental Unitod States at all. Boarded a PBY "I went to a rendezvous point" and boarded a PBY amphibian plane in the water, Rorke said. It was from a point south of Cuba. It was the plane used in the raid." He maintained that "all Mr. Sullivan did was fly mo to Flor ida. Later he met me in Jack sonville to fly me to Washing ton." Sullivan, a former Air Force and commercial air lines pilot earlier had told newsmen in Waterbury, Conn., virtually the same thing. Ho said he flew Rorke only as far as West Palm Beach last Monday and then flew him back to Washington Friday after Rorke allegedly participated in the raid. Congress Expected To Quicken Tempo WASHINGTON (UPD Congres- his investigation of the eon- lional activity increases this week as the House acts on a series of bills and the Senate faces a major test on Republi can efforts to cut spending. The House is scheduled to act on bills giving employers a minor tax break, keep public health, education and federal labor activities rolling and to pump an additional $2 billion into the lending authority of the Export-Import Bank. Various House committees will be considering President Kennedy's tax cut proposal, equal pay for women, highway construction irregularities in Arizona, a possible way to delay raising the debt ceiling and ac tion on the "ratings" problem in broadcasting. The Senate will take up the House approved proposal to pump another $450 million into anti-recession public works proj ects. The proposal is part of a $1.4 billion supplemental money bill and it is here that the Sen ate will face its big test on spending cuts. Senate Republicans have a se ries of amendments aimed at cutting the funds and Sen. Lev erett Saltonstall, R-Mass., will seek to reduce it to $250 million The Senate is expected to add to the measure an amendment which would ban fees to lobby ists for the $73 million Philip pine war claims bill enacted last year.
