defiant
independence issued the appeal at
noon.
His latest act of defiance indi
cated President Ben Bella may
have to use force to quell the in
surgents headed by El Hadj and
his political ally Hocine Ait Ah
med, chairman of the clandestine
Socialist Forces Front (FFS).
The mounting tension between
the loyalist and dissident camps
caused worry among French au
thorities for the safety of the 100,
000 French residents still living
irt Algeria.
French Ambassador Georges
Gorse flew to Paris for consulta
tions. But French authorities said
there was no question of halting
the gradual repatriation of the
remaining French forces due to
be completely evacuated by the
end of next year.
In his order of the day. Col.
El Hadj said to his Berber tribes
men followers:
"The time has come to launch
a decisive struggle against the
dictatorial regime. Let us close
our ranks against which the Ben
Bellas and the Boumediennes
(Defense Minister Col. Houari
Boumedienne) and other crea
tures of the fascist regime shall
come and shatter themselves. Re
join me in my combat. Together,
we shall finish the police regime
and set up democracy which will
give the right of speech to all
revolutionaries."
Ait Ahnid told his followers
Monday night in Michelet: "Re
sistance to the government will
only end with the overthrow of
the dictatorship and installation
of the democratic regime for
which our people fought for seven
years."
There has been no bloodshed
thus far, although government
troops Monday forced rebel units
to abandon two towns, only to
surrender them to the rebels
once more later in the day.
Today the insurgents controlled
the city of Tizi-Ouzou and the
neighboring towns of Michelet
and Fort National.

meeting in Bend today gave a
hard look at problems they will
face if the legislature's tax mea
sure is defeated on October 15.
Defeat of the measure would re
sult in a loss of from 10 to 25 per
cent of the revenues now receiv
ed by the department and the cur
tailment of many functions and
possibly the elimination of some
top positions held by men now
seeking full exploitation of t h e
state's mineral wealth and contin
ued studies of gas and oil.
One of the first services that
would go by the board is that
presently extended firms interest
ed in moonshot research work in
Central Oregon, especially at Der
rick Cave.
The lunar study in the mid-Oregon
lava country came in for
special consideration when the
board members late this morning
reviewed the status of various de
partment projects.
There was also a summary of
offshore oil and gas exploration
activity.
Presiding at t h e conference,
held in the Bend City Commission
Room, was Frank C. McColloch,
Portland, chairman. Other com
missioners present were Harold
Banta, Baker, and Fayette I. Bris

state" department of geology and
mineral industries, was also pres

This was the first time in his

ever met in Bend.
Ouster action
urged by Morse
WASHINGTON (UPI - Sen.
Wayne Morse, D-Ore., has urged
the United .States to take all ac
tion short of intervention to oust
the "fascist" oriented military
junta in the Dominican Republic.
Morse said Monday that he
could not support intervention in
: the Dominican Republic because
it would brand the United States
as an aggressor nation.
I However, he urged the strongest
possible censure against the mili-
tary junta that ousted President
j Juan Bosch, including an emer-
i gency meeting of the Organization
of American States.
j If the military junta was allow
ed to keep control, Morse said it
would encourage similar actions
in other countries."
Morse singled President Ken
nedy out for praise in his han-
! dling of the takeover.
He said he supported Kennedy's
' action in cutting off economic as
sistance. The United States shou.d
follow this step with a trade em
bargo against all goods except
food and medicine, Morse said.
DINNER PLANNED

Nikita admits
Soviet farm
situation bad
MOSCOW (UPI) Premier
Nikita S. Khrushchev, admitting
that bad weather has put Soviet
agricultural production in a
"rather difficult position," today
continued his trouble shooting
tour of tlte state-run farms.
No figures have been released
on the size of this year's wheat
harvest, but the Soviet purchase
of 7 million tons of wheat from
Canada indicates it will be at
least that much short of the 147
million tons harvested last year.
( Congressional sources in
Washington said the Soviets are
interested in buying an additional
3 million tons of American
wheat.)
Urged Utmost Efforts
Khrushchev, who has given a
great deal of advice and count
less directives to the farmers
and officials on the collective and
state farms, urged them again
Monday to make the "utmost ef
forts" to make up for the poor
harvest.
The main way to do this, he
said, was for Russia to manufac
ture and tlie farmers to use as
much chemical fertilizer as tlte
United States does. Soviet produc
tion must reach 35 million tons
a year by 1965, he said, about
the same as 11. S. production
now, and 100 million tons by 1970.
Khrushchev, whose remarks to
peasants in the Ukrainian town
of Novaya Kahkovka were pub
lished in Monday's Izvestia. said
irrigation also had high priority.
He called for more irrigation
systems and the training of spec
ialists in the field.
In Bad Position
"This year weather conditions
were unfavorable and we found
ourselves in a rather difficult
position, and must draw the nec
essary conclusions," Khrushchev
said.
He called for measures "to
safeguard us against any eventu
alities." As one of these meas
ures, he urged an increase of
grain production In tlie Hungary
Steppes, where there are large
scale irrigation projects.
By raising more grain in this
area of Kazakhstan and Uzbekis
tan, he said, tlie nation would
have a kind of insurance, a
"guaranteed fund" in grain.
Military pay
boost approved,
goes to JFK
WASHINGTON (UPI) Con
gress today sent President Ken
nedy Die largest military pay
raise in the nation's history. The
legislation would provide a $12
billion increase for almost two
million members of the armed
forces, effective today.
The House acted after less than
a hour of debate. The Senate vot
ed last week to approve the com
promise which calls for a pay hike
for all those in the military serv
ice except 742.000 low - ranking
draftees and enlistees still serving
their two-year military obligation.
For other enlisted men, the pay
boost would range from $12 a
month for privates to $70 a month
for senior master sergeants. For
officers, the increases would
ranee from $49 to $110 a month.
Overall, they average a little
more than 14 per cent. The last
pay raise w as passed by Congress
in 1958.

Valachi claims Genovese still
has Vegas gambling interests
WASHINGTON (UPI) Un
derworld informer Joseph Valachi
said today that jailed Cosa Nos
tra leader Vito Cenovese still has
gambling interests in Las Vegas,
Nev., in association with gambler
Meyer Lansky.
Valachi also told of gangland
murders in a struggle for control
of New York mobs as he re
sumed his testimony before the

Civil Rights
rescue vote
set by solons
WASHINGTON (UPI) Tlie Sen
ate today started rescue opera
tions for the Civil Rights Com
mission which lapsed into limbo
last midnight.
Senate Democratic Whip Hu
bert H. Humphrey, Minn., pre
dicted a vote today on a one
year extension of tlie agency
which has spent six years study
ing racial discrimination.
Passage by an overwhelming
margin was assured. Southerners
contented themselves with little
more than token opposition in the
form of fairly brief speeches.
I The commission's last two-year
term expired at midnight, but 60
I days of suspended animation is
j allowed for winding up the agen
i cy's affairs.
i Notice was mailed to two-thirds
of the commission staff Monday
informing them that their jobs
will end at the end of October.
Only 19 members of a skeleton
staff escaped the pink slip.
Promises Job Extension
Humphrey and Sens. Kenneth
B. Keating. R-N.Y., and Jacob K.
Javits, R-N.Y., urged the em
ployes to stay on the job. In a
Senate speech, Humphrey as
sured the employes that Congress
would grant an extension.
But the employes probably
won't know for sure until next
week. Sources said there was
only a slim chance the House
would pass the measure by the
end of this week.
Humphrey began the rescue op
eration Monday by calling up a
bill to pay death compensation to
a World War U widow. The one
year extension was attached to
the bill as a rider.
Sen. Richard B. Russell, D
Ga., led a verbal assault on the
commission. He spoke twice, first
for himself and then for Sen.
John C. Stennis, D-Miss.
Russell said that the commis
sion was prejudiced against white
southerners and should be per
mitted to die. He described as
genocide a commission recom
mendation that the President be
authorized to cut off funds to
Mississippi.

fit was under Genovese's control.
Do Everything Together
"Anywhere that Meyer Lansky
is, there's Genovese," Valachi re
plied. "They do everything to
gether." He said the ties persist
ed to the present as far as he
knew.
Lansky has long been listed as
a top-level racketeer by law en-,
forcement authorities. In 1951 the
special Senate Crime Committee,
headed by the late Sen. Estes
Kefauver, D - Tenn., grouped
Lansky with Frank Costcllo and
Joe Adonis as "the eastern axis
of a combination of racketeers
working throughout the nation."
In that period Lansky's position
as outlined by the Kefauver com
mittee, was clearly above Geno
vese's in the hierarchy of what
the 1951 committee called the
"Mafia."
Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy
said meantime that the govern
ment plans to use Valachi later
as a witness in federal criminal
trials against certain leaders of
organized crime.

wheat sale plan
W ASHINGTON (UPI) Demo
cratic congressional leaders today
assured President Kennedy that
they would support wheat sales
to Russia and its satellites, but
drew the line at Red China.
Senate Democratic Whip Hubert
H. Humphrey, Minn., predicted a
White House decision within 72
hours.
Humphrey said the consensus
among the Democratic leaders at
this morning's meeting with Ken
nedy was that the sale should go
through.
However, he said it should be
done by private firms, not on a
government-to-government basis.
Humphrey said Kennedy gave
no indication as to which way he
would go. But the Minnesota law
maker predicted the deal would
be approved.
"It is my guess that the Presi
dent will act to change the (ex
port) regulations to permit some
type of sale," Humphrey said.
The Minnesota Democial said
the initial proposed wheat sale
would involve about three million
tons, at a sale price of about $200
million.

Demos set
push on two
top measures
WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi
dent Kennedy and Democratic
congressional leaders today re-
altirmcd their determination tor
Congress to enact both lax cut
and civil rights legislation this
year.
Following the weekly White
House conference between the
President and House and Senate
leaders, Speaker John W. Mc
Cormack told newsmen, "the
President and leadership agreed
that this was a good time to re
state their long-term agreement
on these two must bills."
Senate Democratic Leader
Mike Mansfield told reorters the
Democrats' high echelon was
speaking out now because of
"stories to the effect that we
would only take up the tax bill or
the civil rights bill, and we want
to reinforce our position."
Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz.,
had said last weekend that Ken
nedy would have to choose be
tween a tax cut and a civil rights
bill because it would be impossi
ble for Congress to enact both
before the end of the year.
"It is the intention of Congress
to pass not either a tax bill or a
pivi I rinhts hill, hut both bills.
before the year is out," Mans
field asserted today.
McCormack said this stand "by
no means" should be interpreted
as meaning that Congress would
"forestall action" on such other
issues as education and mental
health while acting on the prior
ity bills.
But he said the leaders wanted
to "again emphasize the para
mount importance of the tax and
civil rights measures."
Without tax reduction, "our
economy cannot supply the
growth" needed in the face of
"an exploded population," Mc
Cormack said.
And, he said, without the civil
rights bill some Americans will
be unable to share fully in the
nation's progress even if the tax
cut provides the desired economic
stimulus.
"We know that the tax and
civil rights bills mast pass," Mc
Cormack asserted. "There Is no
valid reason why they should not
pass this year."

Minister Harold Macmillan's gov

He also said Britain should cre

Two men still
being held on
open charges
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (UPI)
One of two suspects being held
in connection with recent racial
bombings in this steel city was
given a lie detector test today.
Police said the test, given to
R.E. Chambliss, was a resump
tion of one started Monday and
called off after Chambliss, 59,
fell asleep.
The other suspect, Charles Ca
gle, 22, remained in jail while
interrogation of Chambliss re
sumed. The two, both with Ku Kline
Klan backgrounds, underwent
questioning by state investigators
Monday at tlie city jail where
they can be held 72 hours on an
open charge. They were arrested
Sunday night.
Col. Al Lingo, head of the state
police, has kept details of the
arrests and results of the ques
tioning secret.
"Those are the men being held
in connection with the bombings,"
Lingo said.
But, he added, "we are not
through yet" with the Investiga
tion of bombings here, the worst
of which, on Sept. 15, killed four
Negro girls in the 16th Street
Baptist Church. The city has had
23 bombings since 1956 and none
has been solved despite around
$80,000 in reward money.
Lie Detector Test
Lingo said Chambliss was given
a lie detector test lata Monday
but it was not known whether
Caglo took a similar test. The re
suits were not disclosed. The of
fice of Gov. George Wallace in
Montgomery was expected to re
lease a statement on the arrests
Monday, but no such statement
was made.
Chambliss, with a record of
several arrests but no convictions
in connection with various Klan
activities, was dismissed as a
city employe in 1949 for smash
ing a newsman's camera at a
Klan rally. He signed a petition
in the 1950s to incorporate the
Alabama Ku Klux Klan, Inc.
Cagle, son of a Freewill Bap.
tist minister, was arrested near
Tuscaloosa in June, several d iys
before the integration of the Uni
versity of Alabama, on a charge
of carrying a concealed weapon.
No date for his trial has been set.
Cagle was in a group of men,
some of them Klansmen, picked
up en route to a Klan rally.
Cagle's father, the Rev. A, M.
Cagle, said Monday that his son
"broke away from the Klan about
two months ago." He said
Charles, a laborer for an engi
neering firm, was arrested after
his return from church Sunday
night. "We've got to look to the
Lord," He said.
Had Some Knowledge
The arrests came as a surprise
lo local authorities, but Police
Chief Jamie Moore said "we
have been aware of some of the
suspects questioned by state in
vestigators and had knowledge of
their activities.
"However," Moore said, "at
the time of their arrests, we felt
we did not have enough evidence
on any of them for a conviction."
Negro leader Martin Luther
King Jr. said Monday that possi
ble progress in the investigation
of the bombings eliminated the
necessity for immediate racial
demonstrations. He left for hia
home in Atlanta but said he
would return next weekend to
evaluate talks between city offi
cials, Negro leaders and a two
man team appointed by President
Kennedy to work for racial peace
here.
"(If) such negotiation! are un
productive, we have no alterna
tive but to demonstrate," King
said. He declined to set a dead
line. King had said last week thai
he would recommend a resump
tion of Negro protest marches un
less certain desegregation de
rnanus were met by the city.
