Wood Panels From Shavings TACOMA tn First plant in the Pacific Northwest to manufacture wood panels from sawmill shav ings will be built in North Bend. Ore., by Weyerhaeuser Timber Co. it was announced Thursday. A. 0. Karlen, manager of Wey erhaeuser's Coos Bay branch, re ported approval of plans to con struct facilities for the production of particle board, a wood panel made up of planer-mill shavings and synthetic resins. "This new plant, Karlen said, "will be built on our present branch millsite, adjacent to - the planing mill. When completed in early 1955, we expect it to employ about 40 men on a three-shift basis. "Addition of this unit will allow us to achieve a more complete utilization of the timber we har vest from the Millicoma tree farm. Our annual particle board produc tion target about 11V4 million square feet on a -inch basis can be realized without cutting a single, extra tree. The wood raw material will be that left over from our present operations." Confirmation (Continued from Page 1) Wilson said he was prepared to testify for "several days" but the committee sent him away after about two and . one-half-hours. Wilson lugged away the 37 pounds of documents he had tried to put in the record. The commit tee approval of Warren's nomi nation followed shortly. But Wilson got one break. Met ropolitan police had arrested him in the committee room earlier 'on a telegraphed complaint from San Francisco police that he was a fugitive from a 1952 warrant charging subornation of perjury. Municipal Judge Andrew M. How ard, Jr., ordered Wilson released. The judge said the telegram was not sufficient evidence that Wil son was a fugitive. Wilson said he would so home to California this week-end and "they will find I'm the most un fugitive fugitive they've ever had." .

W. Chadwick, veteran legislator and Oregon hotel man files for re-election to the house from Marion county. Chadwick Out For Re-election Rep. W. W. Chadwick of Mar- ion county Wednesday filed for the republican nomination for representative in the May pri maries. Chadwick, a veteran of five sessions of the legislature, is pres ident of the Chadwick Hotel sys tem, with hotels in Salem, Cor vallis and Medford. ' . . In addition he operates a 75 acre farm near Salem on which he raises fruit and nuts. Rep. ' Chadwick served two terms as mayor of Salem, Was vice president of the League of Oregon Cities.

Crop Control Survey Starts WASHINGTON Ul The Agri culture Department next week will survey farmers' production plans for the summer to try to learn to what extent they expect to comply with government crop control pro grams. - Because of existing record sur pluses, Secretary of Agriculture Benson has set up programs call ing for an overall reduction of about 30 million acres in plantings of wheat, cotton and corn. The prono;eJ cutbacks include about 18 million acres for wheat, 4 million for cotton and 10 million for corn. They would put this year's plantings at about 62 Vi million acres for wheat, 21,300,000 for cotton and 71 million for corn. In the case of wheat and cotton, there are strong economic com pulsions upon farmers to comply with Benson's program. Farmers overplanting their allotments for harvest will be denied government price support assistance and be subject to stiff penalty taxes on excess cotton or wheat sold. In the case of corn, over-planters would lose price support aid, but would not be subject to mar keting penalties. Strong Man of t Continued from Put 1) Stevens Angry (Continued from Pafe 11 No other changes were made in the government's cabinet. The decision to accept Naguib's resignation was made at a meet ing of Nasser and other officers following a cabinet meeting which the general had attended. Naguib was sent home before the council accepted his resignation. Naguib's fall from power pointed to a more rigid policy toward Britain and less cooperation with the West, a policy that was expect ed to cause concern in the united States. The council's communique said Naguib had demanded dictatorial powers and given them an ulti matum to accept them or lose his leadership. Naguib handed in his resigna tion three days ago, "thus facing the council with a fait accompli (accomplished deed) knowing that any rift in the present circum stances would be unsafe." In the early afternoon, it ap peared that Stevens still was con sidering what course to take. During the morning, ben. Mat thew Ridgway, Army chief of staff, was in and out of Stevens' office. So were John Adams, Army legal adviser, and Hugh Milton, assistant secretary of the Army. Stevens was reported to be angry and indignant over some phases of his go-round with McCarthy. Further, he was said to be troubled over the possible effect on Army morale. The secretary went to his office early and launched into a series of conferences with top advisers. Sources closeto the secretary said it was Stevens' understand ing that agreement was reached in his conference Wednesday with Republican members or McCar thy s subcommitte that any Army mitte in the future would be ac corded respect. He was said to be angry that the memorandum of agreement, read by Sen. Mundt (R-SD) after the session, omitted any reference to this and to feel it left him in an untenable position. Moscow Made Crisis in France Over Defense argued that EDC and Indochina are separate problems and must not be allowed to get tangled. But he has yet to win effective ac ceptance of this view. Military Coup (Continued from P( 1) PARIS i - A Made-ln-Moscow crisis is developing here over western European defense plans, the key to U.S. strategy for block ing Soviet power in Europe. The crisis springs from the Ber lin conference decision to hold the beneva conference o' the Big Four Red China and other nations tp discuss Korea and Indochina. By engineering this decision at the last minute at Berlin, Soviet Foreign Minister V.M. Molotov has i managed to pit urgent French in-! terest in ending the Indochina war against the urgent interest of the United States in getting France to approve a European army that in cludes Germany. - Cabinet Splits Premier Joseph Laniel's coali tion cabinet has split over the timing of steps to wring this ap proval from a reluctant National Assembly. Some members favor going ahead with Assembly action before the Geneva conference in April, or perhaps at the same time. Others would delay action until the conference ends. American nolicv holds that the European army proposal offers the only hope of an adequate Western European defense. - If the army plan fails here in Paris, the United States will take a new look at its European policies. And how Laniel and French Foreign Minister Georges Bidault now handle EDC should have a lot to do with wheth er it fails or wins. , , .. Supporters 'of action before Gen eva hold that if the decision is delayed until the Geneva meeting is concluded, Russia may attempt to bargain Indochina peace against EDC in an effort to kill off the EDC. - Furthermore, American officials believe that Berlin disclosures of Russia's resolve to maintain a strong military position in Ger many and Austria have influenced much French opinion in favor of EDC. They think this effect will be lost if action is not taken quickly- ' Laniel and Bidault favor going ahead with Assembly action with all possible speed. In talks with officials this week,. Bidault his The renorted revolt ram month after sweeping arrests of political opposition leaders through out North Syria when Shishekly announced an attempted revolution had been suppressed. If the radio's claims are borne out, it means Syria's second largest city, its best port and the richest agricultural areas are in the hands of the rebels.
