The main points of the broad
V. S. policy he sketched were:
1. This country is ready to
enter into a five-point world
disarmament treaty providing
for an outright ban on atomic
weapons, definite limitations
on the size of each nation's
armed forces, and "a practical
system of inspection under the
United Nations" to enforce the
rules.
Peace in Korea
2. If disarmament can be
achieved, the United States
will loin other countries in set
ting up a "fund for world aid
and reconstruction out of bil
lions saved on military prepara
tions.
3. "The first great step" to
ward a general world settle'
ment "must be the conclusion
of an honorable armistice in
Korea." This should be follow
ed immediately by "political
discussions leading to the hold
ing of free elections in a United
Korea. .
4. A Korean truce "would be
a fraud" unless the Commun
ists simultaneuosly call off
their aggressions against Indo
china and Malaya. The Soviet
attitude of this question will
show whither the Communists
seek "merely an expedient
truce in Korea" or "genuine
peace in Asia."
5. Russia can demonstrate
good faith In Europe by A
freeing Communist satellite
countries to choose "their own
forms of government; B re
leasing "thousands of prisoners
still held from World War II;
and C agreeing to an Austrian
peace treaty without further
delay.
6. The United Slates is will
ing to work for a "united Ger
many, with a government bas
ed on free and secret elections. '
But the German problem can
not be separated from the
broader question of lifting the
Iron Curtain throughout Eur
ope to open the way for "free
movement of persons, of trade
and of ideas."
Mr. Eisenhower said the
whole world will be waiting to
hear Russia's answer to these
challenges, and asked that
"whatever the answer be, let
it be plainly spoken."

Legislators
(Continued from Page 1)
President of the Senate Eu
gene E, Marsh de. red that he
did not want to make an defin
ite statement that the proposed
increase could be done but add'
ed that there is a strong con
tention that it can be done.
Fixes Minimum Rate
The president of the senate
referred specifically ; to the
language ot the 1949 constitu
tlonal amendment which auth
orized the increase in legisla
tive salaries from $8 a day for
50 days to a- flat $600 a year.
He indicated the language of
that section could be interpret
ed as fixing minimum rather
than maximum salaries. .
' "Personally, I'm on the fence
on this one" he concluded. I
haven't made up my mind. A
legislator shouldn't have to lose
money by serving in the legis
lature,, he should at least get
enougn 'to cover his expense,
That isn't true today.
The action is scheduled to
come up for a vote in the sen
ate Thursday probably at the
afternoon session and if the
amendments are adopted the
bill must be returned to the
house for consideration.
Questioned by Wilhelm
' Meantime, House. Speaker
Kudie Wliilem, questioned the
committee approach towards
increasing the salaries of the
legislature.
"Historically, the issue has
always been taken to the peo-
pie," he said. I think when they
voted in 1949 on the increase,
they were voting a maximum.
"We probably should either
place a bill for the increase be'
fore the people, or refer a con
stitutional amendment to the
people to enable the legislature
to fix its own salaries. ' Wil
helm concluded.
The proposed amendment
gives both the president of the
senate and the speaker of the
house an additional $200, ac
cording to Senator Douglas
Yeater of Salem, chairman of
the committee.

Ways-Means
(Continued from Page 1)
At the Thursday morning
meeting of the committee Gov
ernor Paul Patterson appear
ed and spoke in favor of a bill
creating an Oregon develop
ment commission and appro
priating $50,000 for the next
pleted their work.
The committee if au.r.er'ze4,
the governor said, would work
with communities to attract
industries that would increase
employment. '
Senator Angus Gibson said
that a similar committee had
been set up under the adminis
tration of the late Governor
Charles H. Martin and had
continued through several suc
ceeding administrations.
"A Glorified C of C"
"This committee didn't ac
complish much and yet spent
lot of money," Gibson said.
"Governor, isn't this commis
sion just a 'glorified Chamber
of Commerce?"-
"Yes, it will be e. glorified
Chamber of Commerce," the
governor replied. "And it will
work with the Chambers of
the various communities of the
tate."
The governor .pointed out
that the Eugene Chamber of
Commerce had spent a sizeable
sum of money in making a stu
dy of the potentialities of the
city but said that the chamber
has no state body to present this
data to lor transmission to per
sons desirous ot finding sites
for new industries.
New England Example '
' Ti Morris Dunn, chairman of
the state unemployment com
mission, urged adoption of the
Dill, saying that the federal
government would contribute
$15,00 to the commission for a
study of industrial sites, money
that could be utilized by the
committee.
Dunn said that the New
England states had similar com
missions, as did California, Ne
vada, Utah, Pennsylvania and
other states.
Senator John H. C. Merrl-
field declared that Larry Tee-
pies, retired industrialist of
Portland, who is scheduled to
be chairman of the commission.
would devote his entire time to
the work of the commission.
The committee by unanimous
vote, sent the bill to the house
floor with a "do pass" recom
mendation.
The committee voted to re
commend an appropriation of
$1,000,000 for the state emerg
ency fund, a sum that is just
half of what the previous
emergency board was allocated,
A so-called compromise bill
that Is expected to put an end
to the controversy over civil
service classification for staff
members of the Board of High
er Education and the state civil
service commission, was ap
proved by the committee. Un
der the terms of the bills cer
tain academic positions are ex
empted from civil service as
well as some technicians. In
the event of future argument
between the two agencies, the
governor will decide the issue
Before the bill was approved.
Rep. Orvllle Eaton of Astoria
branded the fight between the
two agencies "as disgraceful.
This sort of thing," Eaton
said, "should call for someone
in authority to knock some
heads off."
Assignment of the depart-
ment of agriculture and a por
tion of the department of fi
nance to a new building to be
constructed on the site of a sa
rage on 12th street, near State,
was recommended by a sub
committee and the report
adopted.
The committee also author
ized the board of control to
construct two new buildings,
one east of the state heating
plant for a car pool and the
other on the garage site,
