Dig Lin may
prove to be
embarrassment
' By Phil Newtom
UPI Staff Writer
Notes from the foreign news
' c&bles:
"Too Good:
; Mechanically, Operation "Big
Lift", the job of flying a com
plete U.S. division to Germany
in little more than 60 hours,
was a total success. But in
Bonn they are saying it may
prove a long-term political em
barrassment. Despite U.S. as
surances, jittery West Germans
are not convinced that the mas
sive airlift was not a forerun
ner to reduction of U.S. forces
In Europe. Pressures now may
begin building on new Chancel
lor Ludwig Erhard to start be
ing nicer to President Charles
de Gaulle.
Clour and Closer:
Expect Britain to move even
closer to the United States un
der the new leadership of Sir
Alexander DouRlas-Homc. The
new prime minister, even more
than Harold Macmillan, has
been a staunch supporter of an
Atlantic policy in firm align
ment with the United States.
Douglas Home has been the
driving force behind Britain's
decision to join the United
States in talks with other allies
on the possible creation of a
multl - nation nuclear naval
force. He held out against
strong opposition in the cabinet
when he was the foreign min
ister in Macmillan's set up.
Clour with Franco, Too:
Despite the decision to retain
close lies to the United States,
a marked improvement in rela
tions between France and Brit
ain may also be in the offing.
The meeting at the Hague last
Thursday between French For
eign Minister Maurice Couvc
de Murville and Britain's new
foreign secretary, R. A. Butler,
may mark a fresh start after
nine months of deep freeze that
followed De Gaulle's blackball
of Britain for Common Market
membership.
Autterltyt
The French government Is
bracing for a troublesome
round of strikes this fall, par
. ticularly In nationalized indus
tries such as the rails, and gas
and electricity. But De Gaulle,
Premier Georges Pompidou and
Finance Minister Valery dis
card D'Estaing reportedly feel
time and public opinion will be
on the government's side In de
fending its save-the-franc aus
terity program, including a
temporary wage freeze.
Voter Apathy:
- A thunderous silence so far
Jias been the voter reaction to
Jnpan's general election cam-
.paign. Number of candidates
for the Japanese parliament is
the smallest since the war. The
Issues high prices, the U. S.
alliance, reconciliation with
South Korea have not slirred
.voter imagination.

to cooperate
with governor
SALEM (UPI)-Oregon House
Democrats will cooperate with
Gov. Mark Hatfield in solving
the state's fiscal problems at a
special session of the legislature
next month, they agreed at a
caucus here Sunday.
However, they did not take
any action on the question of
giving Hatfield the power to
handle cuts in the basic school
fund.
House Speaker Clarence Bar
ton, D-Coquille, said the Demo
crats wanted to wait and see
what the situation was when the
special session opened Nov. 11.
The special session was made
necessary when the 1963 legis
lature's 560 million tax pro
gram was turned down by the
state's voters earlier this
month.
The Democrats also agreed to
limit the special session to the
state's financial problems and
to rule changes which would re
quire bills to go through a
rules committee before being
introduced.
This, in effect, would give the
House Rules Committee au
thority over the subjects which
would come before the lower
chamber.
No action was taken on pro
posals for cutting the salaries
of the state legislators.

ICC attempts
distribution of
boxcars fairly
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
Interstate Commerce Commis
sion is attempting to distribute
an inadequate supply of railroad
boxcars fairly, Chairman Lau
rence K. Walralh has assured
Rep. Walter Norbald, R-Ore.
In a letter last week, Norblad
had urged the ICC to "exert
vigorous and continuous efforts"
to see that the Western lumber
and plywood industry had
enough cars to meet its needs.
Norblad said an acute short
age of cars already is hamper
ing the industry and if it con
tinues "it will have a most se
vere effect on the entire eco
nomy and will cause serious un
emDloyment." "The tremendous demand and
shortage nf plain boxcars, which
currently exceeds 12.000 daily,
cannot help but adversely affect
the availability of cars for the
movement of lumber," Walrath
said in his reply.
He said the number of box
cars in service is declining at ,
the rale of 2.000 a month, and
pointed out the ICC cannot di
rect railroads to purchase new
equipment or repair the cars it
already has.
DRAGGING BEGINS
