Is Set Up
House Certain to
Accept Slight
Change
BY PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
Associated Press Writer
The Oregon Senate vot
ed unanimously Tuesday
to remove the death pen
alty from the state Consti
tution. The action means that the peo
ple will vote in November, 1058.
on the .amendment.
However, the resolution must
go back to the House for consid
eration of a Senate change.
The House had voted to keep
the death penalty only for life
termers who commit murder
while in prison. The Senate re
moved this provision, voting in
stead to eliminate the death pen
alty entirely from the Constitu
tion. Expected to Concur
The House is expected to con
cur in the Senate change.
A companion bill, which would
go into effect if the people favor
the resolution, provides that any
person convicted of first degree
murder would have to serve 15
years before he could be paroled.
Such a parole could be granted
only by unanimous action of the
Parole Board.
Elimination of the death penally
from the Constitution still would
permit the .Legislature to pass a
law prescribing the death penalty,
Oregon has had the death penal
ty since it became a state in 1859,
except between 1914 and 1920.
There have been 57 executions
the stale.
Sen. Monroe Sweetland (D)
Milwaukic, argued thatjhe death
penalty doesn't prevent murder,
and that "it is contrary to the
religious principles of most Amer
icans." Rates Compared .
He said that the national aver
age homicide rate per year is 8.1
per 100,000 population, while it is
only 2.3 in states which don't have
the death penalty.
He told of cases in which inno
cent persons have been threatened
with execution, adding that "be
cause it is hard to get most juries
- to inflict the death penalty, many
first degree murders go unpun
ished. "Redemption and restoration to
useful lile is our motive, rather
than mere punishment," he con
cluded. Over in the, House, the Repub
licans failed again in their effort
to take away from the Tax Com
mittee the Senate-passed bill to
remove the state from the prop
erty tax field, the vote was 33-27.
Senate Votes Forest Post
The Senate passed and sent' to
the Governor a bill to create tile
position of forest protection and
conservation director. He would
supervise research for protection
rehabilitation and management of
forest lands.
The Senate also completed leg
islative action on a bill to permit
application for election recounts
to be filed up to 10 days after
the official canvass of results.
Such applications now must be
filed within seven days alter an
tlection.
Cost of Living
Creeps Higher
For 7th Month
WASHINGTON tfi The gov
ernment reported Tuesday that
living cosls rose two-tenths of one
per cent in March to another new
high. It was the seventh straight
month of record costs.
The Labor Department said a
slight decline in food prices, main
ly for dairy and pork products,
was more than offset by increases
o( all other major groups of con-,
sumer goods and services.
The March living cost hike
means wage increases for 1,400,
0O0 workers whose pay rates are
geared partly to changes in the
government's index. This amounts
to an annual payroll boost of
about 75 million dollars for these
workers.
One million railroad workers
are to git an added three cents
an hour effective May 1. The oth
er groups of workers due to get
smaller hourly pay raises of one
to two cents an hour are in the
electrical, aircraft and textile
manufacturing industries and in

Ike Reaffirms
Disarm Talks
Success Hope
Statement After Talks
Willi Stassen Avoids
Excess Optimism '
AUGUSTA, Ga., Hi President
Eisenhower Tuesday reaffirmed
the United Stales is confident that
"controls and reduction of arms
are possible, desirable and in the
last reckoning, indispensable.
The President's view was set
forth in a statement issued at his
vacation headquarters after he
had conferred for 75 minutes with
Harold E. Stassen, his disarma
ment adviser. -
Stassen flew to Augusta from
Washington for the conference
and made ready to start back to
London later in the day for re
sumption of United Nations dis
armament talks there Wednesday.
Those talks, which started last
month and recessed over the East
er weekend, have caused United
States offieials to be cautiously
hopeful that Russia finally may
be ready to take some small first
step toward bringing the East
West atomic weapons race under
international control.
A statement issued after the
Eisenhower-Stassen conference at
the Augusta National Golf Club
was carefully worded to guard
against any idea of excessive opti
mism.

died at 2 a. m., about 8 hours
after the crash.
State police said the car col

London Miss Held Captive in
Dugout 105 Days by Inventor
LONDON m A 28-year-old
brunette claims an eccentric in
ventor held her captive for 105
days in a dugout beneath the btck
garden of his suburban home.
Police removed Mnrjorie Jordan
from the underground den yester
day after a neighbor found a pen
ciled note asking for help.
Claims She Agreed
Her captor, John Bridal, 26, told
reporters:
"She was not brought here un
der force, but she needed some
persuading. She was not enthus
iastic but agreed to help me with
my experiments. I did not keep
her against her will, except for
the first few days.

day or Thursday.
Dulles also told a news confer
ence the United States has no ob
jection to American ships going
through the canal, but advises
that tolls be paid under protest.
The secretary of state refused
to speculate on what the United
States might do if Egypt rejects
the Suez formula adopted by the
Security Council and pressed "iy
the United States in talks at Cai-
Fgypt Decision Near
Dulles indicated a final decision
by Egypl is expected shortly. But
when 'asked if that meant within
48 hours, he said he had no such
official information.
Dulles emphasized the United
Slates would seek no action by
the Security Council, that the U.S.
move would be in the nature of a
report.
(At united nations neaaquariers
in New York, consultations were
under way between the U.S. rlele-
gation and friendly members of
the 11-nation security council on
when to call a council meeting
over the Suez issue. Diplomatic
sources said the time was now
considered "propitious" for a U.S.
report to the council on its ne
gotiations with Egypt over opera
tion of the nationalized waterway.)
Relaxes China Stand
t
On other matters, Dulles said:
1. The State Department favors
letting American newsmen go to
Red China in a strictly limited
number and on a poo' basis pro
vided there is assurance this
would not lower the bars general
ly to travel by Americans to the
Communist-held China mainland
He said the State Department con
tinues to be receptive to stigges
tions from news leaders on how
this can be done.
2. The United States sees
way that nuclear test explosions
can be halted at this time wiinoui
risking giving Russia a chance
to gain a decisive upper hand in
atomic power.
Russ Propaganda Move
3. Russia's decision to make pub
lic at this time warnings the
Kremlin sent Britain and France
before the Suez fighting last fall
appears to be an effort to make
propaganda in the Middle East.
4. Whether the United States
meets with Russia again in an
East-West conference depends
largely on whether the Russians
are seriously ready to move ior
ward in such fields as disarma
ment, freedom for the satellites
and German reunification, or
whether they are simply interested
in making propaganda
5. Harold E. Slassen, President
Eisenhower's special disarm
ament aide, has no new instruc
tions as he returns Tuesday to
London disarmament talks. The
Russians appear more serious
about making progress than
propagandizing, and that is
hopeful sign.

City to Earn 183,841
Investing Bond Cash
By DOUGLAS SEYMOUR
Capital Journal City Editor
Through the solving of a jigsaw-like nuzzle, the Citv of
Salem will receive $83,841 in interest payments through rein
vestment of money received last week from the record water
bond sale.
City Mannger Kent Malhcwson
reported to the City Council Mon
day night that $3,017,808.93, real
ized from the sale of the bonds,
has been put into U. S. govern
ment securities.
The puzzle came in determining
exactly how much money would
be needed for the project at spe
cific dates and then acquiring the
government security maturing at
those times which would bring
the greatest yields. In all five
issues were purchased, all yield
ing in excess of 3 per cent in
terest. The last of the issues will ma
ture June 15, 1958. At that time
the remaining money will be
placed in 30, 60 or 90-day U.S.
notes, Mathcwson explained.
Study on the best means of in
vesting the money was made by
City Finance Officer Howard
Brandvold while determination of
the dales on which the money
would be needed was made by
John Geren, water department
manager, and Lloyd Clark, con
suiting engineer on the project.
Mathewson expressed the city's
thanks to Fred Paulus and to lo
cal bank officials for their help
in the problem.

building is now under way. Gard

Judson Is one of two junior high
buildings authorized by the school

avenue near Silverlon road. Both
will be ready fur the 1058 school
year.
Considerable delay was encoun
tered in getting the buildings start
ed because the first bids were in
excess of the money available for
the two projects.
The delay means that a stag
gered system of classes will be

said. j
Hatfield urged Ihc hoard lo make

"We may be fighting a losing

all-out battle for these budgets is
essential. Any new man who steps
into Dr. Kimball's position will
face the same situation.
Both Gov. Robert D. Holmes

sary. Vlcsko and Post, Salem contrac
tors, won, an award of a contract
