Univ. of oron Library EUUENE, ORSG0.V WEATHER Partly cloudy with few showers: highs it-U lows 1)-U. 59th Year Hatfield says U.S. lumber industry sick PORTLAND (UPI)-Gov. Mark Hatfield told a U.S. Senate com mittee today the lumber industry is "a sick patient . . . and there is need of action at the federal level now." Some 100 Northwest lumbermen at the Senate Commerce Commit tee hearing agreed. They said the problem lies in competition from Canadian lum bermen who enjoy built-in advan tages over the Pacific Northwest. Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., said "we are going to expect some immediate action of a reasonable nature in the very near future. I intend to press for action now." Suggestions Mad Hatfield, Morse and other wit nesses outlined these areas where federal changes are desired: ...Quotas and tariffs to cut down on Canadian lumber shipped to U.S. markets. . . . Transportation adjustments to do away with cheaper ocean shipping now enjoyed by Canada. . . . U.S. Forest Service adjust ments to reduce stumpage prices and increase allowable timber cut . . Better access roads. . . . Trade measures to equalize the currency advantage enjoyed by Canada. ... A hard look at growing log exports to Japan. Unemployment High Hatfield said there are more than 200,000 unemployed national ly today in the lumber industry. He said b recent years lumber mills in the country have closed at the rate of one per day. "We should be intolerant of soft spots in our economy," he said. Hatfield proposed an immediate quarterly quota on Canadian soft wood lumber, based on U.S. con sumption, until longer range pro grams are worked out He sug gested limiting the amount Can ada can ship into U.S. markets to not more than 10 per cent of the U.S. national consumption of softwood lumber for a given quar ter. Sig Unander, Republican nomi nee for Morse's Senate seat, sug gested a quota on import of West ern White Spruce from Canada and legislation to amend the Jones Act which he said in effect places "a $7 to $10 disadvantage" in water transportation on Ameri can lumber mills. He also said the allowable cut of public forests should be recalculated. Major lumber organizations and independent lumbermen were among those testifying.

Bend, Redmond hold unenviable weather record Oregon's wintry sprint; made another national mark today as Redmond and Bend slipped into the unenvied spotlight as the chil liest reporting place in the nation. Each of the Central Oregon weather stations reported night lows of 25 degrees. The bud-frosting chill followed a cold weekend in Central Oregon, as anglers will attest Heavy flur ries of snow whitened the Pau li.ias and fell on the Cascade win ter pack. At Paulina Lake Sunday morning, a low temperature ot 20 was recorded. Anglers reported their wet lines freezing before touching water. Redmond and Bend were not the only cool spots in Oregon this morning. At Baker, Burns and Klamath Falls the temperature was only one degree higher. It was 31 at Lakeview and 34 at Medford. And here is a sad note for ang lers and vacationists: More cool, damp weather is forecast for the end of the present week. In eastern Oregon, the five day forecast from Portland indicates, there will be moderate rain on Thursday or Friday. Highs will be in the 60-72 bracket, somewhat warmer than over the weekend. Lows are expected to range close to freezing at times. The 30-day forecast calls for June weather very similar to that of damp, chilly May. Incidentally, May weather was cooler than that recorded at the Bend station in April Weyerhaeuser closes plant ROCHESTER, N Y. (UPI) -The Weyerhaeuser Co. of Tacoma, announced Saturday it would shut down Its boxboard and folding carton division plant here in a move that will idle 220 workers.

Miss Clevenger was awarded the title at the annual Dairy Day banquet Saturday evening in Red mond. Dark-haired Loris scored high for her natural attractive ness.

Hughes and Lew B DAILY NEWSPAPER 'Victory' not discouraged, Ball claims WASHINGTON (UPI) - Under- secretary George W. Ball told Senate investigators today that tne Mate Department had taken a number of steps in recent months to improve its policies in review of speeches by military leaders. Ball denied that the department strictly discouraged the use of such words as "victory" in ref erence to the cold war. As Ball made a return appear ance before the armed services subcommittee studying alleged muzzling of the military. Chair man John C. Stennis made public the State Dpeartment's written reasons for nearly 100 deletions from Pentagon speeches. Ball testified that he felt tliev showed that the department had done its reviewing "in a credit able and responsible manner." Ball said that since he a n d other State Department witnesses testified in February three "steps toward improvement had been taken. He said the department had tightened up its speech re view procedures. One of these steps was assign ment of a Defense Department of ficer to the State Department, he said, to provide "a constant link" between the two departments in speech review. The departments written ex planation of specific deletions gave rise to Ball's comments on the word "victory." The word was de leted from Marc"i 3, 1961, speech by Brig. Gen. John W. White, and the phrase "defeat of Communist aggression" was sub stituted. The department's report said "the word 'victory" has a mili taristic and aggressive ring.. .im plies an 'all or nothing approach leaving no room for accommoda- dation. Ball said this explanation, already widely publicized, was "inartistlcly worded." The department's explanation for specific deletions grouped most of the speeches involved in to five periods in 1960-1961. For each period the State Department supplied a calendar of world events to support Ball's notation that "relations between the United States and the Communist bloc were in a particularly sensitive and critical state." After the U2 flight and the ill- starred Paris summit conference, for example, reviewers deleted a reference to Premier Nikita Khrushchev's "we will bury you" remark. It said Khrushchev had explained he referred to economic rather than military competition. In the early days of the Ken nedy administration, the phrase rather be Red than dead" was deleted from a speech by Gen. George H. Decker, army chfet ot staff, because "it was thought un desirable to popularize this slogan."

Venezuela (UPI) Government troops today completed occupation of Puerto Cahello and captured hundreds of civilians fleeing the mop-up cam paign against the latest unsuccess ful revolt The government said fighting had halted completely. The cas ualty list was unofficially esti mated at more than 400. Loyalist troops continued flush ing out individual snipers from private homes and rooftops. They threw a ring of steel around the city to keep revolt members from fleeing into Uie hills to the south. Venezuela's top Communist par ty boss, Gustavo Machado, was arrested at the International Air port today on his return from a visit to Moscow. He argued par liamentary immunity from arrest as a congressman but was taken into custody and brought to Ca racas. . . Observers speculated the revolt. which followed a similar uprising at the Carupano naval base, would produce a shake-up in the navy high command. It was the third rebellion against uie Betan- court regime In a year. Following fierce block-to-block fighting early Sunday, govern ment troops, heavy tanks and mo bile artillory patrolled tne city streets. A curfew was enforced on civilian residents of the city. The brief revolt broke out Sat urday at Hie big naval base here, about 70 miles west of Caracas. Navy Comdr. Pedro Medina Sil- va, one of the revolt leaders cap tured here, was reported still defiant.

Court orders new arguments in water case WASHINGTON (UPI) The Supreme Court today ordered more arguments next term on the controversy between Arizona and California over division of Colo rado River water. The court scheduled six more hours for the arguments on Mon day, Oct. 8, the first business day of the new term. Chief Jus tice Earl Warren, a Californian, did not participate in today's ac tion. The court heard the pros and cons of the Colorado River case earlier this term in one of the most extended arguments in re cent court history. But since that time Justice Charles E. Whittakcr has left the bench and Justice Felix Frankfurter has been forced to stop work temporarily because of Illness. Justice Byron R. White, who re placed Whittaker, will have an opportunity to hear the Issues in the fall. Frankfurter, if he is back, will be able to vote.

Close watch was kept over two stewardesses, the only survivors. in hopes they could provide a clue to the worst disaster involving a single airplane in aviation his tory. Flying weather was perfect The pilot was expert. The plane had been checked and rechecked. Officials said sabotage could not be entirely ruled out but was be ing discounted until the wreckage had been thoroughly examined. Mayor Ivan Allen of Atlanta, Ga., home of most of Uie victims, and a U. S. Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) investigator were flying in to Rive what help they could. Atlanta, which lost many of its most prominent citizens, was in a state of deep mourning. Roars Down Runway The Air France jetliner, half as long as football field, roared down the runway at Orly Field Sunday with Commander Roland Hoehe, a man of 13 years flying experience, at the controls. The four jet engines poured out power but it never became air borne. Some witnesses said the wheels got a few feet in the air. Others said the plane seemed glued to the ground. Pierre Loiseau, an Orly control tower radioman, said he saw puffs of blue smoke under the wheels about 800 yards from the end of the runway, indicating the pilot was braking hard. Other witnesses believed the pi lot also used his engines to try to stop. "But the aircraft continued. Loiseau said. "At no time did it seem to leave the ground. A fen yards from the end of the run way it went from one wheel to the other as if the pilot were try ing to get off the runway. At the end of the runway R cut a swath through the posts carrying landing lights. Then it stopped its mad careen after an other 200 yards when it was near the houses in the Rue la Martine of VUlcneuve la Roi." One Of Worst What Loiseau described was one of aviation's greatest traged ies. The only one in which mere was greater loss of life involved the collision of two airliners over New Yok City In which 134 were killed Dec. 16, 1960. The big Air Franca jet, chat tered to take the Georgians home from a "carefree and unforgetta ble" vacation, careened across a bare field, where one wing dug a trench in the soft earth, and shat tered a fence separating Orly Field from the adjacent village of Villencuve le Roi. The four-story-hlgh tall section snapped off and hurtled into a clump of trees. Two stewardess es, Francoise Authle and Jac queline Glllet, were thrown clear. A steward. Marcel L u g o n , also was taken from the wreck- ace alive but he died 10 hours later.

(Standard Timt) No. 152 mourning in crash Sunday tail section. The other 122 passengers and T crewmen died immediately either from the impact or the searing flames fed by 17.000 gallons of jet fuel that engulfed the rest of the $6 million craft. Crash Stuns Experts French aviation experts seeking an immediate cause of the crash said in disbelief, "It could not have happened." The flames were so hot that it took two hours for firemen to cool the wreckage down enough to bring out the bodies. The victims were laid under cherry and apple trees in a near by orchard and then taken to morgues in a continuous stream of ambulances. The Georgians were returning home from a tour sponsored by the Atlanta Art Association. They arrived in Paris May 10 and broke up into smaller groups to see England, Germany, Italy, Switzerland. Holland and France. They reassembled in Paris Sun day and happily compared notes, unaware of the fats in store for them.. . .- .' Include Many Couples -r There were at least 30 married couples aboard the plane. Most were in their 50s or older but im mediate survivors included at least 31 children. One family of six was wiped out Frederick W. Bull Jr., his wife, their two daughters. Bull's mother and his uncle. As great as the disaster was. it might have been worse. A few degrees difference in the direction of its death plunge would have) carried the plane into the cottage of Villencuve le Roi residents. The crash happened shortly aft er 12:30 p.m. The worst previous) disaster involving a single plane was the crash of a U. S. Globe- master near Tokyo on June 18, 1953, in which 129 were killed. ' Of the 122 passengers, all were Americans except Paul Doisan, Air France's representative in At lanta. The U. S. Embassy held off on arrangements for shipping the bodies back home until the arriv al of Mayor Allen and other rep resentatives from Atlanta. Appeal made to Kennedy WASHINGTON (UPI) - Th heavy construction Industry has accused building trades unions of making exorbitant wage demands and has appealed to the Kennedy administration to fight them. William E. Dunn, executive di rector of the Associated General Contractors of America Inc., said Sunday the government should tell the unions that "the guide lines developed by the President'! Council of Economic Advisers were meant to apply to them the same as to anybody else." Dunn told a news conference that higher prices inevitably would result if pending negotiations end ed in settlements calling for wake and fringe benefit increases of more than 4 per cent a year. He said the unions were engag ing in a tactic of "divide and con quer" by signing with one or two construction firms at a time. "We can see that happening all across the country," he said. "If this goes on another month they (contractors) will fold or go broke." Plane crash takes 2 lives POWELL RIVER. B. C.
