Those who areued asainst it ex pressed belief that the House in Oregon, like the House in Con gress, should continue to ne ac countable to the voters every two years. Republicans and Democrats were about evenly split on both sides. Vote Reconsidered. A bill directing the governor to remove from office any public official under indictment wound up back in the hands of the Mult nomah county delegation. At first the Senate voted 15-14 along parly iines Republicans favoring and Democrats against to take the bill from the delegation to assign to another committee. Republicans later moved for re consideration after learning that Sen. Andrew Naterlin, Newport Democrat, had been excused to attend a funeral. Sen. Warren Gill said the Republicans did not want to take advantage of the situation and wanted the bill brought back to the Multnomah couny delega tion until a motion could be made to recall It when no senators were excused. The Multnomah delega tion earlier had tabled the bill. The Senate voted unanimously in favor of House bill 297, which would appropriate up to $100,000 as Oregon's share in a coopera tive survey with the state of Washington of the feasibility of a bridge across the Columbia river from Astoria to Megler.

Department of Agri culture said Wednesday that heavy April rains have put spring planting behind schedule in many parts of western and eastern Ore gon. But higher temperatures have increased to nearly normal the development of crops in the ground and in Western Oregon orchards. Pear trees In the Medford area are blossoming. Western Oregon livestock is out on spring range lands and winter-seeded crops are doing fine. Eastern Oregon wheat seeding is well under way. Warm weather throughout the area has increased the stand of winter-planted wheat. -Central Oregon farmers already have seeded half their . spring wheat and about one-third of the barley they plan to plant. Pasture and livestock are said to be in good condition, especially in i Lake and Klamath counties where pasture is belter than for many years. Renner Picked For Game Post Ralph W. Renner, Lakeview rancher, was appointed to the state Game Commission Wednesday by Gov. Holmes. Renner succeeds the late Elmer Balslger of Klamath Falls. The Governor had named M. E Norton of Phoenix to the post, but withdrew the selection when he discovered the law requires two commissioners from Eastern Ore gon. Renner operates 27,000 acres of ranch and farm lands in Lake and Klamath counties. The Gov ernor said he is an active sportsman. STARTS TONIGHT OPEN AT 6:45 P.M.

NO HOPE THEY'RE ALIVE Diver Fails to Reach 6 Trapped in Oil Rig By KEITH KAT11AN United Press Staff Correspondent NEW ORLEANS (UP)-A skin diver prepared to try again today to reach six men en tombed in cramped sleeping quar ters of a capsized oil drilling barge. Authorities expressed little hope of finding the victims alive. Towering ground swells foiled repeated attempts of diver Don Inman to reach the submerged deck of the floodlighted "Mister K" with his rubber suit and aqua lung before he abandoned the ef fort shortly before midnight. Three crewmen were believed to have drowned immediately when the barge carrying a 100 foot drilling rig on its deck sud denly turned turtle during a storm before noon Wednesday in the mouth of the Mississippi River. Six Survive Ordeal Six others were saved, five of them without injury. One was hospitalized. Inman decided "raps" ;.hat ap peared to come earlier from in side the hull "were just imagina tion" and not signals from survi vors as previously believed. Inman said no divers could reach the barge in 'Wednesday night's heavy weather. "Every time I got near the barge I was washed by the cur rent," he said. The Coast Guard finally fixed warning lights on the hull and abandoned it until daybreak. Some 30 relatives and friends of the missing crewmen maintained a nightlong vigil at rescue head quarters in Venice, La., about 30 miles from the scene. The nearly new derrick barge, valued at $1,250,000, was being towed out of the storm - tossed Gulf of Mexico into the calmer mouth of the Mississippi when it suddenly turned bottom up. The survivors said they had lit tle time to get out, it all hap pened so fast. "I was in the pump room," M. E. Flowers of Houston, Tex., said. "We went over and I got out, but I was swept out 100 feet. That may have saved me. I can only swim a little." Flowers said he saw two of his shipmates floundering and "I don't think they were picked up." Plez Ballard of Buras, La., said he saw three fellow workmen drown. He identified them as W. J. Davis, 42, Silver Creek, Miss.; James Harvey Jr., Jayess, Miss., and Lewis Hightower, also of Jay- 'Egyptians Buy foreign firms CAIRO uv-British and French banks and insurance companies were turned over omciaiiy loaay to Egyptian owners. r... rn ealn anr! transfer of operations of the foreign firms were signed yesieruay. me ws- ........ .....b npilaroH ac nart of an Egyptianizalion program after the British-French invasion of the Suez Canal zone.
