Page ? Section 1 House Takes Minimum Salary For Teachers Hiked $400 By PAUL W. HARVEY Jr. Associated Press Writer The free textbook bill, which had provoked a religious argument, was approved by the House Thurs day with only seven dissenting votes. It goes back to the Senate (or consideration of minor House amendments. This hill raised the issue of whether the school districts should give free textbooks to pupils of nriualA anri nnrrwhial schools. But the bill actually has little to do with that question. Students of oil elementary schools public, private and paro nniu rtnl trot llYlhnnl! provided the schools can meet slate standards. Half Not Standard Because about half of tin schools in the stale now are not standard because of overcrowd ing, they are in danger of losing their free doors. The bill would continue to pro vide free books for these non standard schools. Some parochial schools have been deprived ot tneir tree dooks in the past two years because o failure to meet ine stanaaras. Under the bill, they would get them again. The hill has had a stormy history in. the Legislature because opposing religious groups fought over the Issue of whether paro chial schools should, continue to get the free books. In the House, however, no aop- posllion was expressed. Teacher Raises Approved The House passed and sent to the Governor a bill to boost mini mum teacher salaries $400 a year. The new minimums would be $3,400 for teachers without college degrees, $3,700 for those with bachelor degrees, and $4,000 for teachers with master s degrees. The bill would provldo salary increases, beginning July 1, 1U58, for 8.1 teachers without degrees, 315 with bachelor degrees, and 40 with master's degrees. The House also completed legis lative action on a bill to remove the limit on the number of head lights an automobile can have. The limit now is two, but some new models have four. Under the bill, a car could have any number of headlights, should tnc trend to more ot mem con tinue. : ' ' Parents Take Up Son Hunt SAN FRANCISCO Ifl - The search for Thomas Stanley, 20, who disappeared here more than year ago, was renewed Thurs day by his parcnls, Mr. and Mrs. Carter Stanley, Milwaukee, Ore.

Al Ullman (D-Ore.) said today the administration's decision to allow Idaho Power Co. rapid tax write offs in construction of Pacific Northwest dams is a "flagrant violation of public trust." "This is the most flagrant vio lation of public responsibility yet undertaken by an administration already well soiled with the give away label," he said. The office of Defense Mobiliza tion announced Thursday that the company would be permitted to write off part of the construction cost of dams in the Hells Canyon area in five years Instead of the usual 20. What this means is that Ihe taxpayers of the nation are sub sidizing the Idaho Power Co. in its desecration of the Snake River al Hells Canyon, one of the great est ot our remaining natural re sources, Ullman said. Sen. Wayne Morse (D- Ore.) called the action "another shock ing betrayal of the public interest" and a "political theft of the peo ple's substance." He said he "was not surprised by this additional act of favoritism by the -admin istration." Supposedly private enterprise ut Hells Canyon was to poy its way, Morse said. Now the ad ministration is giving it a tremen dous handout for underdevcloping the people s resource. Ullman charged that the five- year tax writeoff Is "not only a million dollar gift from the (ax payers now," but amounts to nn "Interest free loan" which will 20,500 Go Out In GE Dispute LYNN, Mass, un An estimated 20,500 General Electric workers in Lynn and Everett were idled Friday by a strike called in a dispute over three grievances.

A statement by Schweitzer broadcast in Norwny earlier this week had said that further crea tion of radioactive elements by atom-bomb explosions must le considered "as a catastrophe for Ihe human race, a catastrophe that must be prevented under every circumstance." He said radiation from previous explosions "represents danger to the human race," and added that further explosions "will in crease this danger to an alarm ing extent." r . But the other, the former Wilmn Pyzik, 48, a clerical worker, said she wants a divorce and the late model auto she bought for Yemm. He will appear in felony court Monday on a bigamy charge brought by Wilma. . . Yemm, a plain-faced man in a baggy blue suit, said he married Beverly, May 26, 1951, and Wilma on Nov. 24, 1955. He said he man aged to live with both because he told each his job took him out of the city frequently. He was arrested Thursday after a relative of Yemm's next in tended wife asked police to inves tigate him. Police said he recited a list of four other women he had married, and later left.

It was substantially changed from the Senate version of the bill so as to be more ac ceptable to Portland and eastern Oregon. . Senate bill 64. which alreadv has passed the upper House, calls lor a new method of distributing to school districts money from the state basic school support tuna. Won't Hurt Any Badly House Education Chairman Joe Rogers, Independence Democrat. said the new formula would work no matter how much of a raise was made in the basic school sup port fund. I his bill has been amended so it won't hurt any school district badly," Rogers added. Purpose of the bill is to equalize costs of edu cation throughout the state. the House Education Commit tee held more than a half-dozen hearings on Ihe bill before the chief objections to it were re moved. At the last hearing, Rep. John Mosser, Portland Republi can, amended the bill so that dis tribution of school money would be based on 50 per cent assessed valuation and 50 per cent key dis trict millage. Portland Loses Less In 'the original Senate bill, dis- ribution of money would have been based on the ability of school districts to meet education stand ards set by Portland, the key dis trict. The amended bill' would go into effect at the start of the next school year. The State Department of Educa tion has estimated that if basic school support were raised to $90, Portland would lose about $900,000 ? year under the amended bill. It would have lost some $2,750,000 in state aid under the Senate version of the bill.

Up Soil Program Failing, NFU's Chief Asserts Patton Lists 7 General Complaints Against Bank Benefits By OVID A. MARTIN WASHINGTON m - President James G. Patton of the National Farmers' Union says it looks as If the billion-dollar soil bank pro gram is failing. , In what he calls a "hard-boiled" appraisal based in part on farm ers complaints, the farm leader listed seven criticisms ol the pro gram designed to cut down on production of surplus crops by of Icring payments for retirement of land. The seven general complaints given in the current Issue of the union's monthly magazine are: 1. It has failed to curb produc tion because output has increased. 2. It has been designed particu larly for big operators. 3. It is failing to do a "real" conservation job on idled acres an argument used to justify its adoption. 4. It has been discredited among farmers in some regions by its "political use" in the Midwest corn belt last year. 5. It has been harmed by "too many reversals" and "inconsist encies" in administration. 6. Its outlay of public funds has given agriculture "bad public relations" without any defense from Secretary of Agriculture Benson. 7. It has been "fatally coupled" with low price supports. The Farmers Union supported the general principle of the soil bank program when it was enact- ea by Congress last year, but It has been highly critical of farm policies and programs of the F.i senhower administration. In last year's campaign, the farm organ ization worked closely with the Democrats. Benson, on the other hand, has said that he is hopeful the soil bank coupled, with government export subsidy programs will go n long way toward disposing of current farm surpluses by the end of I960.

Racket Threat Cited to ANPA By Top Prober NEW YORK Ifl-Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark) says Senate probers have turned up evidence of racketeering in labor and in dustry which could lead to "a gangsterism economy." McClellan, chairman of the- bi partisan Senate Rackets Commit tee, spoke last night before the annual dinner of the Bureau of Advertising of the American Newspaper Publishers Assn. The ANPA's 71st convention ended early in the day. The senator said the work of his committee, after a .yearlong investigation, has "barely be gun." "Racketeering is a threat to liberty, he said. "It is criminal, and it has no place in our civ ilized society . . . "If left alone, unchecked and unrestrained, with the momentum It has already gained, we could be heading for a gangsterism economy in America. That must not occur. The responsibility rests upon all of us to prevent it. "I believe that it can be pre vented, and I have an abiding hope and faith that it will be done." McClellan said the committee will continue its exposure of wrongdoing in both labor and management fields until Congress has enough information to "clean up the mess. Evidence thus far, he said, has revealed a "close pattern" of graft, corruption and ties to the underworld. i News Cost Shared SACRAMENTO UH The As sembly Agriculture Committee has approved a bill which would appropriate $6,000 to help estab lish an agricultural marketing news service in the Klamath Ba sin in conjunction with Oregon and federal officials.

This new pattern of the nuclear age navy was disclosed Friday by the First Lord of the Admiralty, Lord Selkirk, in a memorandum to the Admiralty's estimates for 1957-1958 spending. The new look, with its emphasis on manpower reduction and great er firepower, had been foreshad owed in a revolutionary, five-year defense program outlined earlier this month by Defense Minister Duncan Sandys. Battleships are out in the new scheme. Four of these big ships, which formed the backbone of the World War II fleet, are to be scrapped. In their place will be modernized and re-equipped air craft carriers forming the core of the highly mobile attack groups. The groups' attacking power will be centered in the new Blackburn N39 bomber, which reportedly has a speed of 1500 miles an hour. A second atom bomb carrying plane, the supermarine Scimitar fighter, will be the mainstay of the de fense. Supporting it will be the all-weather fighter Vixen DH1I0, armed with air-to-air guided mis siles. Cruisers are to be replaced by fast fleet escort vessels carrying the guided missile "sea slug." The new plans mean a reduc tion of 7,000 men for the navy this year, bringing the strength to 121,500.
