in the past three months, and
ordered a $1.8 million cutback
in the two-year budget because
of last week's tax election de
feat. The general assistance pro

September alone, and spiraling

NEW YORK (UPI) - A
bomb scare held up the depart
ure of visiting Yugoslav Presi
dent Tito for 40 minutes today
while scores of police searched
the liner Rotterdam.
The Holland - America Lines
vessel sailed with Tito and his
wife, Jovanka, aboard at 12:40
p.m. EDT after city chief of
detectives declared the ship
safe, as far as we are con
cerned."
The all-out search began when
the .Coast ujrd Teceived an
anonymous telephone call say
ing a bomb had been placed
aboard the Rotterdam set to ex
plode at 4 p.m. EDT. The ship
had been given a routine check
early this morning by security
officers.
'Poiitive Feelings'
But Tito departed "with very
positive feelings" about his visit
and told a breakfast party at
tended by 200 Yugoslav consu
lar and U. N. staff members
that he believed his trip "will
be a useful contribution to
peace." Tito left after receiving
a message from President Ken
nedy wishing him a "bon voy
age." "We are leaving this country
with a fine impression despite
some provocation from a small
element," he said.
Kennedy telephoned Tito
Thursday to wish him a pleas
ant trip home and to help
sweeten any sour feelings over
the incidents. There were more
Thursday followed by seven ar
rests. It was the second time dur
ing Tito's visit here that Presi
dent Kennedy took a personal
interest in Tito's welfare.
Earlier in the week Kennedy
telephoned his concern to Adlai
E. Stevenson, U.S. ambassador
to the United Nations.
Questionnaire printed
Would you favor
city-operated bus?
The questionnaire below seeks to determine
how Bend residents feel about the resumption
of city bus service under city control.
Last spring a privately-owned sen-ice col
lapsed from financial difficulties. Since then the
City has received several requests to step in and
run the service itself.
Budget committees in future years could
provide for the support of a city bus system if
voters approve. But the question among city
commissioners now is whether there is sufficient
need for public transportation to justify city
operation.
This questionnaire will be influential in a
decision.
Do you (favor) (oppose) city
bus service?
If favored, would you use the service? (yes)
(no)

In addition, Juras noted nurs

The commission voted to put
austerity program cuts totaling
$4.5 million into effect Nov. 1.
Of this amount, $1.8 million is
from the state's general fund,
and the rest matching funds
about $2 million from the fed

Cuts outlined under the
austerity program eliminate 54

Oxford research
notes possible
fluoride danger
LONDON (UPI) Three Ox
ford researchers said today they
have laboratory evidence that
sodium fluoride of one-twemietn
of the strength of fluoridated
drinking water inhibits the
growth of human cells.
Writing in the British Medi
cal Journal, Dr. Roger Berry,
Helen Hay Whitney and Wilfred
Trillwood said their findings did
not necessarily mean fluoridat
ed water is unsafe. But they
said they believed more re
search into the effects of fluor
ide is needed.
"This is probably the first in
dication of the toxicity of fluor
ide in high dilution to human
and animal cells in a test tube
environment," they said. "The
test tube conditions may not re
produce the condition which ex
ists in the human body where
body cells may be protected
from the harmful effects of
drugs and chemicals by protec
tive mechanisms. But the exist
ence and nature of fluoride pro
tective mechanisms are matters
more for speculation than of
fact."

FDA, AMA join
in fight against
quack products
WASHINGTON (UPI)-Health
quackery is at least a billion-
dollar annual business that
sometimes kills its victims, top
level government officials said
today.
Opening the second annual
National Congress on Medical
Quackery. Welfare Secretary
Anthony J. Celebrezze said the
gullible buyer of useless and
sometimes dangerous products
for which extravagant claims
are made "is not only fleeced
of the price of a nostrum. . .but
is also deprived of consider
able benefits of modern medi
cine." The meeting to emphasize
the dangers of quackery was
co-sponsored by the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA)
and the American Medical As
sociation (AMA).
Across town, one target of
the double-barrelled quackery
attack the National Health
Federation (NHF) set up shop
for a convention of its own,
called the "National Congress
on Health Monopoly." It at
tacked the AMA, contending
medical doctors themselves
were guilty of promoting use
less drugs.
FDA Commissioner George
P. Larrick, joining Celebrezze
in attacking quackery, directly
referred to NHF. He derided
its claims of promoting freedom
of choice in the health field and
said it was "one of a number
of so-called health and nutri
tion organizations which are
not all that they claim to be."
Besides the NHF. the AMA
came under attack trom a
spokesman for a chiropractors'
group. He charged that some
surgeons perform unnecessary
operations on patients in order
to collect the high fees.

By United Press International
Daylight saving time, not long
ago a touchy topic in Oregon,
comes to a peaceful end for the
year Sunday.
This was the first year
in three years that Oregon had
uniform time throughout the
late spring, summer and early
fall.
A 1961 legislative act permitt
ed five counties to adopt fast
time. Thev did. So did some
others, although they weren't
sunposed to.
this resulted in confusion in
1961 and 1962.
So voters last year approved
daylight time for the entire
state. They had it ending in the
last week of September. The
1963 legislature took care of the
rest extending it until the last
last week of October to
conform with othei-. states that

Seven miners
are rescued
in Germany
PEINE. Germany (UPI)
Work crews tonight rescued sev
en miners who had been
trapped for 23 hours 180 feet
below the ground in a flooded
iron mine.
The seven men were hauled
to the surface in rescue cap-
sules at 7 p.m.
They were among 50 miners
trapped Thursday night when a
huge wall of sludge slid into the
mic ui
other 43 miners, and it was
feared they were dead.
The men became trapped by
an earth slide Thursday night
at the Lengede-Broistedt mine,
10 miles south of Peine in West
Germany's province of Lower
Saxony.
A full shift of 129 men went
to work in the mine at 2 p.m.
Thursday, and all were
there at 8 p.m. when tons of
watery sludge, mud, and rocks
cascaded into the 100-yard-decp
pit.
Seventy - nine men escaped,
struggling to the surface
through tubes of the mine's ex
haust and ventilation system or
climbing rope ladders lowered
from the surface.
Electric System Out
The mud slide short-circuited
the mine's electric system and
stalled elevators that might
have saved all the miners in
minutes, a spokesman for the
owners said.
The management of the II
seder Mine Co., here in Peine
organized rescue operations.
Rescue teams drilled through
the night to bore a six -inch
hole down to the 60-yard level
of the mine.
"They could hear noises
down there," the spokesman
said.
A field telephone was low
ered. Seconds later, a voice
crackled up to the surface on
the phone:
"There are seven of us down
here. We can't see any others."
The spokesman said the lower
level of the mine still was
flooded this morning and said
that if the missing men were
at the bottom "they are prob
ably dead."
Sandwiches Sent Down
Rescuers lowered sandwiches
and water to the trapped men
and concentrated on widening
the six-inch hole so rescue cap
sules could be put down to
bring the still-living miners to
the surface.
"We're okay and the atmos
phere is good," one of the trap
ped men reported to tne sur
face by phone.

He said the Army will keep
its present force of five divi
sions and four tank regiments
here indefinitely.
Vance was asked whether the
Defense Department and the
Army conducted Big utt as a
forerunner to possible troop
withdrawals. ...
"No," he said, "it was a test
of our ability to reinforce (Eu
ropean garrisons) rapidly.
"We have no intention of
withdrawing any of our six
division equivalent already
here."
In Operation Big Lift, com
pleted almost nine hours ahead
of schedule Thursday, the 15,

Quail crashed into a Bend

morning, a deer ran tnrougn
the downtown area, and high
overhead a flight of geese wing

The quail flew into a front
window of the Wagner Super
market store in eastside Bend,
with the first flock striking the
glass at about 7:30 a.m. There
were six in the flight, and one
was killed. Fifteen minutes la
ter, there was another crash of
quail into the window, then at
8 a.m. came the final "wave,"
with another left dead.

CHARLESTON, S. C. (UPI)
Hurricane Ginny aimed its
loo mile an hour winds at the
Carolinas' coastline today, forc
ing thousands to flee to higher
grounds.
A noon EDT advisory located
Ginny 65 miles southeast of
Charleston and the weather
bureau said the center of the
storm likely would move inland
tonight between Myrtle Beach,
S. C. and Wilmington, V. C.
Police with louds; eakers
toured the low - lying ocean
areas around Charleston,
urging residents to get out and
by noon. Thousands heeded the
warning, packed a few belong
ings, and headed tor inland
shelters.
A siren screamed steadily at
Folly Beach, jutting out into
the Atlantic just south of
Charleston.
"This means get the hell
out," a Civil Defense spokes
man said. '
Gale Force Winds
Gale force winds and pound
ing surf hit all along the coast
line. Extensive flooding with tides
up 8 feet above normal was
forecast for portions of the
South Carolina coast.
Ginny, the season's seventh
hurricane, sprang up off the
North Carolina coast Sunday
night, backtracked slowly to the
south and meanaced the Florida
mainland before turning again
to threaten the Carolinas.
The noon EDT advisory said
the storm was moving on a
north - northeast course at 8
miles per hour and would con
tinue on this course for the
next 18 hours.
Civil Defense officials at
Charleston said that evacuation
of about 10,000 persons on is
lands and beach fronts in the
path of Ginny was nearly com
pleted shortly before noon.
Head for Shelters
The refugees headed for 'St
igh school building shelters in
the greater Charleston area
manned by Red Cross person
nel. About B.uon ot the persons
are residents of beach homes
and others lived in homes they
feared would not stand up to
the stiff winds.
All counties within 100 miles
of Charleston were advised to
close schools by noon and get
school buses off the highways
as soon as possible.
Residents of resort islands
and other low lying areas
around this historic seaport city
boarded up their homes and
headed for inland shelters.
Police and firemen moved up
and down Folly Beach, Isle of
Palms and Sullivans Island in
loudspeaker trucks urging
about 10,000 winter residents of
ths islands to move to higher
ground.
Refugee centers were set up
at school houses inland and au
thorities hoped to complete the
evacuation by noon.
Tides as much as nine feet
above normal were predicted
for areas along the boutn Car
olina coast.
Red Cross shelters were or
dered set up in the Charleston
area by noon EDT to feed and
house the persons wno uea
from the lowlands.
Chief J. M. Bunch of the
Folly Beach police department
said his men were using school
buses to transport the evac
uees. "The seas are plenty rough
and we're getting plenty ot
rain," he said. "We're getting
the people out as fast as we
can."
