Four convoys
ordered through
zone
BERLIN (UPD The British
army today ordered four con
voys to travel through the So
viet zone to West Berlin in a
new demonstration of Western
access rights.
Soviet border guards passed
the first two convoys through
their checkpoint on the West
German border without diffi
culty. A British spokesman said sol
diers in three trucks dis
mounted to be counted at So
viet request because there were
a large number of soldiers in
those trucks.
The spokesman said this was
normal practice and the British
dismount to facilitate clearance
when there are many soldiers
in a truck.
Wednesday Russian border
guards harassed a British con
vov, holding it for nine hours,
and last weekend they held an
American convoy for 48 hours.
The new movement on the
110-mile Helmstedt-Berlin high
way was considered an indica
tion of Western Allied determi
nation to keep the vital high
way route to isolated Berlin
open and reject Russian de
mands for new inspection pro
cedures. A British army spokesman
here said six convoys totaling
more than 200 men and 60 vehi
cles would travel along the
highway to Berlin today from
a maneuver ground in West

As A Public Service
Re-establishment of city's
bus line urged by Stover
By Gerald Drapeau
Bulletin Staff Writer
The matter of public
I
bus
transportation was again
brought before Bend city com
missioners last night at tne ter
mination of their regular meet
ing. A meeting visitor, B. A.
"Dutch" Stover, asked the
board to consider re-establishing
the bus service which fold
ed earlier this year from finan
cial difficulties. He said the
service was urgently needed by
school children, elder residents
and those who could not afford
costly taxi fare.
Since the service terminated

Bend man, 87,
takes own life
The body of a suicide victim,
John M. G r i s w 0 1 d , 67, was
found bv Bend police Wednes
day on Century Drive shortly
after he shot himself in the
head with a 30-30 rifle.
According to police, the vic
tim had driven his car a short
distance beyond the city limits
and parked it at the side ot tne
road. A note left in the car ex
plained he had been quite ill for
a long period.
The body was discovered by
a passing motorist, Vance Bar
ber, 1150 Union, who notified of
ficers. Mr. Griswold had resided
with his wife Ilde at 425 Colum
bia. ( For obituary information

problem has been in finding a
competent owner-operator who
could realize a profit.
Study Needed
Stover agreed with a com
mission recommendation that a
study of the problem should be
made, but noted this would not
solve the immediate problem.
He pointed out that winter
weather would be harsh on per
sons forced to walk because no
service is available.
In closing, the board made
no decision on the transporta
tion need, but felt it would be
more economically sound for
the city to conduct the service,
than to support private own
ership. In other business, the board
over-rode planning commission
counsel and gave first reading
to an ordinance amendment
governing the keeping of horses
and cows in Bend. The amend
ment lessens area restrictions
and requires permits for keep
ing livestock inside city limits.
Earlier this week the planning
commission opposed the amend
ment. Other Action Given
The commission, in other ac
tion: 1. Gave second readings to
two zoning amendments. One
allows the locating of printing,
publishing and lithographing
firms in C-3 (commercial)
zones. The other adds apart
ment dwellings to a "special
uses" section of the zoning ordi
nance. 2. Referred to the city engi
neer lor costs estimates a peti
tion to pave E. Fourth Street
from Clay Avenue to Burnside
Avenue.
3. Approved at the city
level an application for a liq
uor license submitted by Walter
and Fay Sands, to open a cock
tail club on E. Third Street.
4. Approved $1,060 as the pur
chase price for a new city Sand
er, and accepted bills amount
ing to $420.02 for materials
used in construction of a dog
pound.
Powers struck
crossing street
A man who was knocked
down by an auto Wednesday at
the Franklin Avenue - Wall
Street intersection was later ex
amined and released at St.
Charles Memorial Hospital.
Art Powers, 57, of 921 E. 11th,
was crossing Wall Street in an
Eastward direction when he was
struck bv a car making a left
turn onto Wall from Franklin.
The motorist was Donald W.
Wachter, 19. of 311 Wall Street.
He told officers he did not spot
Powers until it was too late to

Musa at odds
with Hatfield
on tax plans
SALEM (UPI) A split be
tween Gov. Mark Hatfield and
Senate President Ben Musa be
came apparent today when Mu
sa revealed his own plan to
trim the state's general fund
budget.
Musa's plan calls for budget
cuts totaling $57.1 million.
Hatfield Wednesday called a
special session of the legisla
ture for Nov. 11. He said he
had ordered $35 million in cut
backs, wanted the legislature to
enact a $12 million speedup of
withholding tax collections, and
authorization to make cuts in
basic school support.
Musa said he opposed giving
Hatfield authority to make the
cuts in basic school.
"The legislature enacted the
original basic school program,
and the legislature should make
the cuts," Musa said.
The Democratic Senate presi
dent also said he was "afraid
there will be difficulty on the
one-shot plan. I don't think the
voters will go for it.
Musa said he had called a
caucus ot tne benate nuies
Committee and Senate Ways
and Means Committee here Fri
day. The budget cuts proposed by
Musa include a $20.5 million
slash in basic school support,
and $1.7 million cuts in the
State Department of Education.
Higher education's operation
costs would be trimmed by $11.9
million, and the college build
ing program cut by $9 million.
He proposed a $3.1 million cut ;
in public welfare, a 51.3 minion
cut in mental institutions, and
a $1 million slash in correction
al institutions.
The courts, legislature and
elected officials would be sliced
$2.7 million, and reductions also
would come from the tax com
mission, natural resources, sal
ary ad3Ustments, and otncr
state building programs.
5th American
defection noted
BERLIN (UPD-The U.S.
Army today investigated the
fifth reported defection of an
American soldier to East Ger
many within seven days.
The East German news agen
cy ADN said Wednesday night
Pvt. Frank Barton, 22, ot tne
6th Missile Battalion, 517th Ar
tillery, stationed at Giesscn,
West Germany, had asked po
litical asylum.
The Communist agency noted
Barton was the second soldier
from the same missile unit to
defect recently. It did not say
where or when he entered the
East.
An Army spokesman said
Barton, whose mother, Mrs.
Annette Barton lives in Los An
geles, Calif., has been listed as
absent without leave from Gies
sen since Aug. 30.
It appeared Barton went
AWOL with Pvt. Gary T.
Martzke, 25, of Highland,
Mich., whose defection to the
East was claimed by ADN
Monday night, the spokesman
said. The two soldiers were
known to be friends, he said.
Apart from the personal link
between Barton and Martzke,
there was no apparent connec
tion between any of the other
defections claimed by ADN
since Oct. 9, the spokesman
said.

Tito in U.S.,
has informal
talk with JFK
WASHINGTON (UPI) -Marshal
Tito of Yugoslavia, the
"independent" Communist who
seeks friendly ties with both
East and West, arrived to
day for an informal but highly
significant visit with President
Kennedy.
The Yugoslav president, fresh
from a Latin American tour,
was flying to Washington (11:45
a.m. EDT) from Williamsburg,
Va., where he arrived Wednes
day from Mexico City.
Tito was spending only six
hours in the U. S. capital. He
planned to return to Williams
burg for the night and fly to
California Friday. He is sched
uled to address the United Na
tions before leaving for home
Oct. 25.
Gets Official Welcome
While his visit was listed as
informal by the State Depart
ment in an apparent effort
to forestall criticism in Con
gress Tito was to get the
red carpet treatment usually
accorded an official state visi
tor.
A 21-gun salute and other
military honors were scheduled
when his helicopter sets down
on the White House lawn. The
only exception to the routine:
no parade through the city was
planned for Tito.
The White House and State
Department, fearful of possible
refugee demonstrations against
the 71-year-old ex-partisan lead
er, kept his public appearances
to a minimum.
Kennedy and Tito were ex
pected after an afternoon (4
p.m. EDT) conference to issue
a communique. The Yugoslav
leader has indicated he will
talk with newsmen after the
White House meeting.
Concerned Over Agreement
Tito is known to be deeply
disturbed by congressional ef
forts to force the President to
withdraw the "most favored na
tion" treatment accorded Yu
goslav products under an
agreement.
He also is sensitive concern
ing congressional restrictions
denying him any aia except
farm surplus.
The administration, anxious
to keep Tito friendly toward
the West, has to walk a tight
rope between irate congressmen
and Yugoslav officials.

private from Fort Ord, Calif.,

track nine miles east of here

Algiers says
peace talks
break down
ALGIERS (UPI) Algerian-
Moroccan peace talks have bro
ken down without reaching a
cease-fire agreement and the
Algerian delegation is flymg
home tliis evening, the state-
operated Aluiers Radio an
nounced today.
The announcement was broad
cast soon after Algerian sources
in the Moroccan southern capi
tal of Marrakech said the talks
had ended in deadlock.
At the same time, reports
from army headquarters at Co
lomb Bcchar on the edge of the
Sahara 500 miles southwest of
Algiers said fighting raged for
the fourth consecutive day be
tween Algerian and Moroccan
troops around contested border
posts.
The radio said the two chief
Algerian delegates M'Hamed
Yazid and Maior Hoffman Sli-
mnne were flying home with Al
gerian Ambassador to Morocco
Saad Dahlab.
The announcement quoted Ya
zid as saying before taking off
from Marrakech, "I have not
been able to reach an agree
ment with my Moroccan broth
ers and I am not sure whether
I shall return."
The statement appeared to in
dicate the talks might have
broken down completely.
The diplomatic developments
came as Algerian and Moroc
can troops were reported en
gaged in their fourth day of
fighting for control of the Saha
ra outposts of Tinnjoub and Has
si Beida.

Both working
'perfectly,'
U.S. reports
CAPE CANAVERAL (UPD
Two top-secret U.S. satellites
were reported "working per
fectly" today as they traveled
in orbits toward final stations
60,000 miles high to patrol for
clandestine nuclear f.ests in
space.
The two 485-pound satellites
rode into the sky one atop the
other in the nose of a silvery
Atlas-Agena rocket the open
ing shot in a tightly guarded,
five - shot program variously
called "Vela Hotel," "Vela
High altitude" and simply
"Project 823."
The launching was one of the
most deadly accurate ever
made by the veteran Atlas
Agena, and informed sources
said today radio signals from
the satellites indicated that
both were "working perfect
ly." Elliptical Orbits
The initial blast by the two
stage rocket hurled the moon-
lets into highly elliptical, or
oval shaped, orbits with peak
altitudes of about 60,000 miles.
The next critical step ahead
was lo fire small, solid-fueled
rocket motors on each satellite,
to "kick" it into a nearly cir
cular orbit at the 60,000 -mile
level and keep it from sliding
back toward earth. The first
"kick" was to be administered
later today.
Scientists planned to let the
second satellite make another
elliptical orbit before giving it
a similar "kick," probably
sometime Friday.
Would Enforce Ban
The satellites are the forerun
ners of a complex system the
United Mates plans to set up
in space to enforce a nuclear
test ban treaty it recently
signed along with the Soviet
Union.
The secret shot was witnessed
directly and indirectly by
scores of persons from Miami
lo Jacksonville. Fla.. who were
alerted by the spectacular red
glare of the 103-foot Atlas-Agena
rocket on its fiery voyage
into space.
Early indications were the
rocket had performed almost
perfectly, sending the twin sat
ellites on their way toward a
pianned target 60,000 miles
above earth. But informed
sources said lt would take
"many hours" and perhaps a
few days to determine exactly
the success of the shot.
Orbit Still Ahead
Still ahead was the Lncky job
of getting the moonlets to fire
their small, solid-fueled rockets
just at the right time to "kick"
them into the intended circular
orbits.
If all goes well, the satellites
will swing through space about
140 degrees apart, ready lo de
tect man-made nuclear explo
sions as small as 10 kilotons
equal to 10.000 tons of explod
ing TNT, or about half the pow
er that destroyed Hiroshima
at distances of up to 200 million
miles in space.
Defense
signed by JFK
WASHINGTON (UPI)-Pre-ident
Kennedy today signed into
law the second largest peace
time defense spending bill in
U.S. history. The measure ap
propriates $47.2 billion to keep
America's military muscles
flexed.
The sum was so huge that lt
would take one person almost
90 years to spend it at a rate of
$1,000 a minute.
The bill provides funds for
the weapons and manpower of
the armed forces for the cur
rent fiscal year which began
July 1 and ends next June 30.
The defense money bill, larg
est to come before Congress
each year, represents nearly
half the entire federal budget.
The Air Force, as usual, got
the linn's share of the total
$18 4 billion. The Navy received
14.3 billion and the Army $12.1
billion. Joint defense agencies
accounted for the remainder.
