Chinese seem
to be pulling
troops back
NEW DELHI (UPI Commu
nist Chinese troops appeared to
be pulling out of some areas along
the border with India today hours
before their scheduled withdrawal.
But sources close to Prime Min
ister Jawaharlal Nehru's office
cautioned that it still was too
early to tell if the movement out
of the North East Frontier Agen
cy (NEFA) region was only a
token move or the real tiling.
Information from government
sources confirmed earlier military
reports that fewer and fewer Red
Chinese troops were visible in
front of the Indian positions.
As these developments took
place India asked Red China for
still another "clarification" of its
withdrawal plans which were
scheduled to begin at 8 a.m. PST.
"A fresh note seeking more pre
cise information was handed to
the Chinese charge d'affaires this
afternoon, a Foreign Ministry
spokesman said.
He said the note referred to
Chinese withdrawal and cease-fire
plans and not to the letter that
Nehru received Thursday from
Chou En-lai, the Peking premier.
He said this letter was "under
consideration separately," but de
clined to disclose its contents ex
cept to say it also referred to
Chinese proposals.
Commander Replaced
In another development, the De
fense Ministry confirmed that Lt.
Gen. S.H.F.J. Manekshaw has
been named commander of India's
NEFA and eastern forces. He re
places Lt Gen. B.M. Kaul, named
by Nehru and ousted Defense Min
ister V.K. Krishna Menon in Oc
tober to clear the invading Chi
nese forces out of the NEFA.
The new move came in the wake
of Anglo-American efforts persuad
ing India and Pakistan to try to
patch up their bitter traditional
quarrels, including rival claims to
Kashmir, so that they could com
bine to present a solid defense of
the entire Indian-Pakistan subcon
tinent against the common enemy
of Communist aggressioa
Nona too Soon
There were indications the
agreement cams none too soon.
Red China started broadcasting
accusations of Indian intrusions
along the cease-fire line perhaps
as a prelude to a resumption of
hostilities by the Chinese.
A joint communique issued In
New Delhi and the Pakistani cap
ital of Rawalpindi said represent
atives of the two nations would
get together and prepare for a
summit meeting between Presi
dent Mohammed Ayub Khan and
Prima Minister Jawaharlal
Nehru.
Rain is falling
oyer pass areas
Rain was falling over the Cas
cade highway passes this morn
ing, with light showers reaching
east into the Mid-Oregon plateau
country. Bend streets were damp
ened in mid-morning.
Rain was turning snow to slush
on all passes. No new snow was
reported for the night. At a slight
ly higher elevation than the pass
es, at Bachelor Butte, marginal
snow-rain conditions were report
ed in mid-morning.
Another storm appears to be
moving in from the Pacific, on
the trail of the present disturb
ance. The five-day forecast for
this part of the state calls for
"rain or snow, mostly after Sun
day." Thursday's chill in Central Ore
gon, following' temperatures that
dropped to points as low as 4
above zero, reported from Pau
lina Lake, faded late in the day
as clouds moved in. The low in
Bend last night was 33 degrees,
17 above the low here the previ
ous night.
Temperatures in the next five
days are expected to range in the
35-40 bracket for highs, and 22-32
for lows. These predicted marks
indicate that if moisture falls it
will be of the snowy type.

BLM plans
to 'unbottle'
river areas
PORTLAND (UPI) A Bureau
of Land Management official said
today BLM is planning construc
tion of public access roads and
development of recreation facili
ties for public use along the mid
dle and lower Deschutes River
where lands now are "bottled
up."
Robert E. Wilber, a staff as
sistant to the Oregon BLM direc
tor, told the Portland Chapter of
the Izaak Walton League the
facilities would bring millions of
dollars into local and state econ
omies every year.
Wilber said there are 60 miles
of publicly owned river frontage
along the lower and middle De
schutes which are bottled up and
closed to the public by a few
private organizations. He said the
organizations are maintaining
roads and other improvements on
public lands and using the lands
as "their own private recreation
retreat."
"To permit these lands to re
main bottled up for limited use
is contrary to the public interest,"
he said. . . , , . . ..
25,000 Acr
BLM designated 25,000 acres of
public lands along the Deschutes
for retention in federal ownership
as a multiple use public land
management area in 1961. The
bureau has since entered into
agreement with the Oregon Game
Commission on development and
management of the area's re
sources. Wilber said public recreation
will receive top priority but graz
ing, wildlife use, watershed pro
tection, mineral development and
other uses will be worked into
future development.
' He said the game commission
estimates 66,300 angler trips were
made to the Deschutes River be
tween Warm Springs and its
mouth during 1961 and that $520,
000 was spent in pursuit of fish
in that part of the stream.
"All this in spite of the very
limited access the public has to
that portion of the Deschutes,
hp said.
Wilber complimented the Izaak
Walton group for its active role
In past years in improving the
public land access pattern. But he
also said some of the members
of the league also are members of
other organizations blocking ac
cess to public lands along the
Deschutes.

JFK's meeting
with Mikoyan
proves failure
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Presi
dent Kennedy's long conference
with Soviet Deputy Premier An
astas I. Mikoyan failed to lessen
the lingering differences over
Cuba and pointed up the possibil
ity of new East-West dissension
in Southeast Asia.
Mikoyan was meeting today at
lunch with Secretary of State
Dean Rusk but officials said they
did not expect this talk to alter
matters materially.
The White House announced,
after the 3-hour and 20-minute
Kennedy-Mikoyan session Thurs
day evening, that they had agreed
Soviet and American negotiators
in New York should continue their
efforts to tie up loose ends of the
Oct. 28 agreement on removal of
Red missiles and bombers from
Cuba.
Makt No Progress
The U.S. officials added that the
White House session failed to
make any progress on any dis
puted points, including the major
question of how and when Soviet
Premier Nikita Khrushchev is go
ing to make good on his promise
to permit United Nations inspec
tors to check Cuban bases to
make certain all offensive weap
ons have been removed.
Officials said the danger of new
disorders in Southeast Asia came
up in discussing Laos. The Presi
dent was understood to have point
ed out that a considerable num
ber of Communist North Vietnam
ese troops remain in northern
Laos despite the Soviet pledge to
see that they were removed under
the international agreement to
"neutralize" the kingdom.

MADRAS Twenty-one-year-old
Jeannace June Freeman, con
victed slayer of Larry Jackson,
6, heard the date for her execu
tion set for the second time, this
morning in the circuit courtroom
of the Jefferson County Court
house. Judge Robert H. Foley set
the date of Jan. 29, 1963, for her
execution in the gas chamber at
the Oregon State Penitentiary.
The execution, set earlier for
December 6, was postponed by
court order when Judge Foley
last week granted a petition by
Miss Freeman's attorneys asking
for delay at least until January
23. They requested the time in
order to decide whether to appeal
to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Miss Freeman showed no vis
ible emotion as the execution date
was set. Judge Foley announced
it after telling Miss Freeman that
the motion filed by her attorneys
had been allowed.
90 Days for Appaal
The petition by the attorneys,
William Holmes and Cash Per
rine of Bend, was based on a fed
eral law that gives a defendant 90
days from the date of a mandate
by a state supreme court, to file
an appeal. The Oregon Supreme
Court in September ruled that
Miss Freeman received "an
eminently fair" trial.
In judging the trial fair, the
Oregon high court affirmed the
death sentence, and the mandate
went to Judge Foley, to set the
original execution date. The 90
day period from the mandate
would expire on Jan. 23, 1963.
The jury that found Miss Free
man guilty did not recommend
mercy, making the death sent
ence mandatory under the Oregon
Constitution.
Her attorneys have appealed to
Gov. Mark Hatfield to commute
the death sentence, but he has
not made a decision. Mrs. Ger
trude Nunez Jackson, 33, mother
of Larry and hb four-year-old sis
tor, Martha, killed at the same
time, was given a life sentence
fo.- her participation in the crime.
The two children were thrown
into the 300-foot deep Crooked
River gorge at Peter Skene Og
den State Park. Their mangled
bodies were discovered on May
31, 1961, by a Bend man, Walter
Meyer, who stopped at the park
and looking over the parapet,
spotted them by chance.
George Neavoll, Eugene, a stu
dent at the University of Oregon,
who has had an audience with
Gov. Hatfield on Miss Freeman's
behalf, claims that the state is
responsible for conditions which
resulted in a Lesbian affair be
tween Miss Freeman and Mrs.
Nunez.
He said that she has developed
an interest in number - painting
pictures in oil, and that she was
baptized into the Roman Catholic
Church recently at the prison.
Miss Freeman's attorneys said
that they had received a number
of letters from persons who feel
that she should not be executed.
Contributions of one or two dol
lars, and one of 10 dollars, were
enclosed to help finance her ap
peal to the U. S. Supreme Court
if one is maoe.

Madras yesterday from the Ore
gon State Penitentiary by Sheriff

county deputies.

"The only thing I can think of
is they're trying to save face,"
Dickie told UPI in his isolation
cell at Ada County Jail. "From
what I understand they're the

confession out of Anderson."
Dickie said he feels the con

but it is. That lie detector test I

Sir Winston
has birthday
eighty-eight
LONDON (UPI) Sir Winston
Churchill celebrated his 88th
birthday today with his first great
grandchild and the prospect of a
royal princess in the family.
Churchill also set his sights on
two important dates in the near
future. One is around the first of
the year, when he hopes to pres
sure his doctors into allowing him
a Riviera vacation. He has not
been there since last June, when
he broke his leg and became dan
gerously ill with complications.
The other date is five months
from today, when Chruchill will
have lived longer than any other
British prime minister. Queen
Victoria's prime minister, William
Gladstone, died at the age of 88
years and five months. Churchill's
good health and tough constitution
seem certain to get him past this
mark.
Birthday congratulations poured
in to the Churchill town house
near Hyde Park today. Among
them were messages from Presi
dent Kennedy and former Presi
dent Dwlght D. Eisenhower.
Churchill got an early birthday
present Thursday when Princess
Alexandra, Queen Elizabeth's
cousin, announced her engage
ment to Angus Ogilvy, a London
businessman who is the son of the
Earl of Airlie. Churchill's wife
also is descended from the earls
of Airlie, and Uio princess will
become a relative by marriage.
Churchill's new great grandson,
Mark Dixon, is now two weeks
old and Sir Winston was known
to be anxious to have him join
the traditional quiet family party
that marks his birthdays. Only a
few close friends join the family
guests.
