Wild turkeys released in area Sunday Thirteen wild turkeys of the Merriam variety, first of these game birds ever released in this part of the state, took to the tops of tall pines when they were freed from their crates at 1 a.m. Sun day on the east side of Green Ridge, north, of Sisters. - The turkeys had been trapped near Flagstaff, Ariz., and were de livered by Arizona State game commission personnel at Tonopah, Nev., to Bob Mace and Clark Walsh, of the Oregon state game commission. A breakdown of the Arizona truck carrying the turkeys a,nd others resulted in a delay in the long trip to Oregon. For this rea son, they were immediately taken to the Green Ridge area and freed at the early morning hour Sunday by Paul Bonn and Monty Mont gomery of the game department's regional office in Bend. Other Shipments Two other shipments, one by truck, the other by air, were re ceived over the weekend and freed near Wamic, headquarters of the White River game manage ment area. Eighteen were deliv ered there by truck, as part of the shipment from Arizona. In addi tion. 20 turkeys trapped in Colo rado and brought to Oregon by plane were released in the wamic area. Despite the fact that some of the birds were in crates as long as 46 hours, only one of the wild turkeys was lost There will be no hunting of the birds. Game per sonnel has asked that they not be fed. The Merriam wild turkeys rep resent one of six races of wiid turkevs found in North America. Engineers stay away from jobs third day NEW YORK (UPI) Striking flight engineers stayed away from their jobs for the third straight day today, making it almost cer tain that five major airlines will begin furloughing about 60,000 em ployes across the United States. Three of the airlines appeared ready to shut down entirely, and a. fourth promised only "skeleton" service. The airlines had planned to be gin layoffs today unless the flight engineers resumed their jobs. But the engineers continued their wild cat strike, and American Airlines and Trans World Airlines an nounced they had cancelled al most all their flights until noon. (EST). In New York alone, more than 600 flights into and out of the city's three major- airports were cancelled. About 50,000 passengers were affected. American Airlines said that as a conseouence of the strike, it would begin laying off 24.000 workers beginning at noon. Other lines planned similar action today unless the strike is settled.

During the modernization work, the main delivery window will be closed, for a few days, with serv ice to be provided at a smaller, adjacent window. The work, a "screenline alter ation" job, will group all service windows in the same part of the Post Office foyer. The major change will be the shifting of the money order window, now at the south end, to the area of the pres ent general delivery and parcel post windows. Next to the general delivery window, on the south, will be the money order window, in its nexi location. Then will come the drop boxes.

He said tills meant that "European union men won't fuel or service any American planes without pro fessional engineers aboard." With Trans World and Ameri can tied up, the only-carrier op erating directly between New York and the West Coast was United Airlines. Only Service Northeast Airlines, not on strike, . was the only scheduled carrier with direct service between New York and Miami since the strike began. Eastern Airlines said it was operating 50 per cent of its flights, using twin-engined aircraft and a "majority" of its jetliners manned by supervisory personnel. The flight engineers' spokesman said a paralysis of international air transportation would soon be complete. He said engineers work ing for Air France naa aeciaea not to work and British Overseas Airways Corp. and KLM Dutch airliners engineers would move similarly. He said there was a possibility United Air Lines engi neers also would stay away from their jobs. Labor Secretary Arthur J.

John son's private, white Convair plane crashed Sunday night seven miles from Johnson's LBJ ranch, killing two pilots who were on board. Texas Department ot pudiic Safety, agent radioed from tlx: scene today that they had found the wreckage and the two dead pilots: Harold Teague and Charles Williams. The plane, which Johnson used for business trips, crashed Sunday niEht. shortly after It had radioed at 30 p.m. CST that the weather was too bad for it to land at Johnson's private airport and that it was turned back to Ausun, oo miles away. Teague and Williams were fer rying the plane from Austin to the ranch. There is one lighted runway at the ranch. There are instru ment landing facilities at Austin. The vice president was at the ranch. An aide reported he was up all night, telephoning his friends on adjoining ranches to find out whether they knew any thing about the missing plane. . A question arose today as to how much of the plane Johnson owns. Luther C. Berry, a San An tonio insurance man, said he in sured the plane for $250,000 with Insurance Company of North America, but he declined to say who the owner is. The San Antonio News said the plane was owned by Johnson and a group of political supporters, but did not name the supporters.

WASHINGTON (UPP-President Kennedy sent Congress today a controversy-laden education pro gram which would authorize $5.6 billion in federal grants and loans to build public schools, boost teachers' salaries and increase college opportunities. Key provisions of the Presi dent's special message would: Authorize federal grants of $2.3 billion for public school con struction and teachers' salaries for the next three years, with each state deciding how much of the money would go for each function. The money would equal a minimum of $15 for every pub lic school student "in average daily attendance." Establish a five-year program of state-administered scholarships for up to 212,500 . "talented and needy" college students at an over-all federal cost of $577.5 mil- j lion. The average scholarship would be $700; the maximum would be $1,000. Colleges and uni versities would get $350 a year additional for teaching each fed eral scholarship student States would have to pass out the schol arships competitively "without re gard to sex, race, creed or color. Extend the college housing F3 money could not- go to any "pri vate schools established to get around court-ordered desegrega tion. The school construction-teachers' pay program would "assure every state of no less than $15 for every public school student in average daily attendance." The nationwide total would be $666 million in the 1962 fiscal year starting next July 1; $766 million in the 1963 fiscal year and $866 million in the following year. Funds would tie distributed un der an "equalization formula" by which a state's average income per pupil is measured against the national average of $11,728. Those below the national average would get more funds than those above it, subject to a floor of $15 per pupil. The highest figure per pupil is $29.67 for Mississippi. The lows of $15 are listed for Alaska, Connecti cut, Delaware, Illinois, Massachu setts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and the District of Columbia. Ten per cent of the funds al lotted to each state in the first year and an equal amount there- lm . '--or'- Ji LARRY COOPER Larry Cooper dies Sunday at Prineville loan program for five years at after would be used "to help meet the unique problems of each state s 'areas of special education al need.'." These would include problems of students in depressed areas, slum neighborhoods and other bolow-par sections. Mtt Unique Problems Officials said the "unique prob lems" also conceivably could in clude difficulties In adjusting to desegregation of schools. An ex ample cited was the need for remedial reading courses for Ne gro children who transferred to white schools in the District of Columbia several years ago. Kennedy said that "our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education" be cause "the human mind is our fundamental resource." The President said steps must be taken to raise teachers' sal aries and build a total of 600,000 classrooms in the next 10 years, as well as to give special aid to "underprivileged children" who attend schools in depressed areas and slum sections. $250 million annually, and provide $300 million a year in loans for five years to help build college Classrooms, laboratories, libraries and related academic facilities. Excludes Private Schools Kennedy, the first Roman Cath olic to serve in the White House, made a special point of noting that parochial and private ele mentary and secondary schools would be excluded from the program. "In accordance with the clear prohibition of the Constitution, no elementary or secondary school funds are allocated for construct ing church schools or paying church school teachers' salaries," the President said. Kennedy, in an effort to win over lawmakers, fearful of federal control of schools, said "education must remain a matter of state and local control, and higher edu cation a matter of individual choice." But he said the nation's "twin coals must be:' a new standard of excellence in education and the availability of such excellence to all who are willing and able to pursue it." "This is a modest program with ambitious goals," Kennedy told Congress. "For some 40 years, the Conzress has wrestled with this problem and searched for workable solution. I believe that we now have such a solution; and that this Congress in this year will make a land-mark contribution to American education." Federal aid to be provided for elementary and secondary public schools would be distributed under a formula giving poorer states, such as Mississippi, a bigger rela tive share than richer states, such as New York. Up To States Administration officials said the states themselves would ' decide how much of the money they get would be used for construction and how much to pay teachers. There would be no itrings at tached, except that each state would have to "maintain its own effort or contribution" and to allot more money for education If its share fails below the national average. Federal funds could go to racial ly segregated schools under the bill's provisions, if states so choose, officials said.

Darrell Jones, president of the Association, told a news confer ence a number of federal, lte and local agencies had been in vited to participate fn a cooper ative effort to strengthen the tourist industry, Oregon's third largest. The O 4 C counties pledged both "leadership, and monpy as earnings from controverted tim ber Sides allow" to the program. Jones said one part of the pro posed program was eventual com pletion of a network of high stand ard roads linking outstanding rec reational resources in the Cas cades from Mt. Hood to Crater Lake, across the Siskiyou and Const ranges, and up the coast from th California Una to Tilla mook. The program also calls for "simultaneous development of ad ditional public recreation facili ties, and improvement of some existing facilities, in cooperation with all interested agencies of government." The participation of private investment in "first rate facilities" also was encouraged. Jones said money to be invest ed by the 18 O 4 C countie would come from i portion of earnings from so . called "controverted" O 4 C Umberlandt managed by the Forest Service and regular O 4 M lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management. By law 75 per cent of earnings from all 0 4 C lands go to the counties and 25 per cent U the federal government. Since the 1953 fiscal year, the counties have voluntarily reinvested close to one third of their share In access roads, reforestation, and recently recreatior,dl development. Nearly (45 million has been reinvested this way, Jones said. Last year $172,000 was Invested in i camp site development program on 4 C lands managed by BLM, in cooperation with that agency. An other $100,000 is heing spent this year and $250,000 next year. Last September the O & counties approved a similar but vastly expanded program in co operation with the Forest Serv ice. In this program, develop ment! will not be restricted to sites on O 4 C lands, but will be extended to other public lands such as National Forests within the If counties. U. S. shock expressed by Stevenson UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (UPI) Six followers of slain Patrice Lumumba were executed after their deportation by Congo Presi dent Joseph Kasavubu into the Congo's violently anti-Lumumbist Kasai Province, Secretary-general Dug Hammarskjold told the Se curity Council today. Soviet Ambassador Valerian A. Zorin charged that the Kasavubu government "is carrying out a campaign of systematic exter mination of the national leaders of the Congo." He put full blame on Hammar skjold and Belgium for support of Uie Congo regime of Kasavubu, secessionist leader Moise Tshom be and army strongman Ma, Gen. Josoph D. Mobutu. Zorin de manded the arrest of Tshomba and Mobutu. Council Adjourns The council adjourned almost at once after hearing Hammarsk jold's announcement shock. It agreed to Liberian Ambassador George A. Padmore's request for adjournment until 3 p.m.. EST, to permit him to consult other Afri can delegates. U.S. Ambassador' Adlai E. Ste venson said he was instructed to "express our shock, revulsion and indignation" at Uie latest "exam ple of barbarity." Zorin seized upon the announce ment as the basis for a compre hensive speech. He recalled that he had opposed the council's week- , end adjournment last Friday and said "every day's postponement is untying Uie hands of Uie ter rorist regime which Is now rag ing In Leopoldville and Katanga." Passive Attitude "We are convinced," Zorin said, "that if the United Nations con tinues its passive attitude in the adoption of decisive measiaes against the Belgian aggressors and their stooges, we will have further victims and will be faced. with a complete catastrophe..." The six political prisoners were transferred from Leopoldville to Bakwanga in the strongly anti- Lumumbist province last week. Rajcshwar Dayal of India, and Hammarskjold's special rcpresen- ative in Uie Congo, informed tha secretary-general this morning ha had been notified by "Uie so- called minister of justice of South Kasai" that they had been executed. Hammarskjold protested trans fer of the political prisoners lata last week in a stern note to Joseph Ileo, premier in the government of Congolese Presi dent Joseph Kasavubu. , U.N. "Powerless" Hammarskjold said tha United Nations was "powerless in tho face of such policies." Ha said it was humiliating to be confronted with such acta by the Leopoldville government and said it was for the council to judge "how theso latest developments should influ ence U.N. actions in relation to the Congo." It is obvious that even H Hiera should be criminal charges against some of the individuals I note, however, that to my knowledge no such charges have been presented. at least not In legally acceptable form Their secret and arbitrary arrests and transfers to South Kasai constitute flagrant violation of minimum rights guaranteed to Uie accused under Uie commonly accepted principles of law and human rights." Na Replies The Secretary-general noted Da yal had received no replies to ap peals sent to Congolese Premier Joseph Ileo and Albert Kalonjl, head of Uie Kasi government, re garding Uie transfer of Uie six or more prisoners. Tha Security Council was re ported ready to get tough with Uie Congo to step a growing new wava of terrorism, murder and civil warfare.
