Lawmaker urges
research center
for Portland
WASHINGTON (UPI) An
Oregon delegation, lead by Rep.
Edith Green, D-Ore., and Ro
bert Short, vice .president of
Portland General Electric Co.,
Wednesday urged the National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration (NASA) to locate a re
search center In the Portland
area.
The delegation listed some of
Oregon's technical and climatic
advantages in an effort to have
a $57 million electronic research
complex in the state.
Oregon's group was one of
many such delegations bidding
for the project which NASA said
would eventually employ 2,100
to 2,700 persons. The projected
center would occupy 1,100 acres.
Short suggested a site in the
Tualatin Vallev to NASA exam
iner George Simpson.
Dr. James Jensen, president
of Oregon State University, pre
sented a description of what he
termed the "academic boule
vard" which stretches from Se
attle to San Diego and through
the Willamette Valley. It would
offer scientific personnel and
laboratories for work related to
space, he said.
Dr. Jensen also described the
proposed graduate research cen
ter for the Portland area, a co
operative effort by Oregon uni
versities and Industry. It is now
In the planning stage.
He said Oregon education
could offer much In the field of
biology and examiner Simpson
said biology could be "a sleep
er" In the space program.
Douglas Strain, president of
Electro Scientific Industries,
said some 6,000 persons are em
ployed In the state's electronics
oriented industries and would
present "an adequate base to
support a 2,100-employe opera
tion," by NASA.
He said more than 1,000 tech
nicians are trained annually in
Oregon but 800 leave the state
to seek employment.
U.tte weapons
control urged
OSLO, Norway UPI) Nobel
Peaca Prize winner Dr. Linus
C. Pauling urged Wednesday
that the world's nuclear powers
place their nuclear weapons
under control of the United
Nations.
Pauling, a professor at Cali
fornia Institute of Technology,
was awarded the Peace Prize
for 1962 In a ceremony here
Tuesday. He outlined his pro
posal in a lecture before the
Nobel Institute.
He said the United States, the
Soviet Union, and smaller nu
ciear powers should agree to a
system under which they could
use nuclear weapons only with
the approval of the United Na
tions. "Even a small step In the di
rection of this proposal, national-International
control, such
as the acceptance of U.N. ob
servers In the control stations
of the nuclear powers, might
decrease significantly the prob
ability of nuclear war," he
taid.

Moving eulogies
pay tribute to
dead President
WASHINGTON (UPI) The
Senate paid its special tribute
Wednesday in six hours of mov
ing eulogies to a slain colleague
John F. Kennedy.
The late President's younger
brother. Sen. Edward M. Ken
nedy, D-Mass., closed the long
day of formal commemorative
speeches by urging that the na
tion unite behind President
Johnson to solve problems
through reason, "not in vio
lence." Democrats and Republicans,
those who fought his programs
and those who supported him
In life joined in lavish praise

Board created
to head off
airline strike
WASHINGTON UPI)-In his
first intervention to halt a
strike. President Johnson has
created an emergency board to
head off a walkout that would
have crippled six major airlines
in the midst of the Christmas
travel rush.
On Johnson's order, the board
was set up Wednesday to inves
tigate a dispute between the
machinists' union and Braniff,
Continental, Eastern, North
west, Trans World Airlines and
National.
The action will postpone a
strike for at least 60 days while
the board tries to solve the dis
pute over pay raises and rule
changes.
The presidential order came
with only minutes to spare. A
National Mediation Board
spokesman said a quickie walk
out had been feared in 20 min
utes at National Airlines, de
spite a strike deadline of one
minute after midnight Thurs
day. Mechanics and ground crews
on the other five airlines have
voted for a strike, but set no
deadline.
The President's action, how
ever still leaves the threat of
walkout hanging over United
Airlines. The strike is set tor
12:01 a.m. (local time) Dec. 19.
At last report, a federal media
tor trying to work out a settle
ment said no progress had been
made on an agreement.
Johnson took his action under
the Railway Labor Act. It was
based on a recommendation
from the national mediation
board.
Under the Railway Labor Act,
which also covers airlines, the
cooling off order is allowable in
disputes that threaten to de
prive a section of the nation of
essential transportation. Any
violation of the order may be
brought to the attention of a
federal court. The court then
may Issue Injunctions to stop
the violation.

Dart shooting
rifle developed
by United States
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
Defense Department is develop
ing a rule that shoots darts in
stead of bullets.
A top Pentagon research ex
pert said today the darts are
only an inch long and about the
thickness of a pencil lead, but
are capable of inflicting a gap
ing wound almost as severe as
that caused by a dum-dum bul
let. He explained that the darts
have little fins that keep them
stabilized in flight. But when
they strike flesh, they lose their
stability and turn end-over-end
in the wound.
The early results were ob
tained in a project known as
"Special Purpose Individual
Weapon" (SPIW), announced by
the Army last February.
"The weapon could be used
as both a rifle and a shoulder
fired grenade launcher," the
Army said. "Fully loaded, it is
expected to weigh no more
than the current M14 rifle and
will significantly increase the
effectiveness of the combat sol
dier." The Army did not identify the
nature of the ammunition. The
defense expert who described
the tiny darts indicated that
much of the increase in effec
tiveness would be due to the ex
treme light weight of the proj
ectiles as compared with regu
lar ammunition.
A soldier could carry thou
sands of the darts, and could
fire them either In separate
rounds or in a single deadly
stream, he said.
The expert added that the
new weapon would not replace
the standard rifle, but could
prove highly useful for anti-
guerrilla purposes.

Castro says JFK re:
brought Russian missiles
WASHINGTON (UPI)- Fidel
Castro has been quoted as say
ing that a remark by President
Kennedy convinced him and
Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khru
shchev that a U.S. invasion of
Cuba was imminent and led
them to place Russian missiles
on the island.
The White House said Wed
nesday, however, that the late
President stated at the time to
Khrushchev's son-in-law, Alexei
I. Adzhubei, that no U.S. inva
sion was planned. Castro's re
ference was to the talk Ken
nedy had with Adzhubei, the
editor of the newspaper Izves
tia, in January 1962.
Castro's statements were re
ported by Jean Daniel, a French
newsman who interviewed the
Cuban premier shortly before
the Nov. 22 assassination of
Kennedy.
Castro said Kennedy recalled
for Adzhubei that the United
States did not intervene when
Russia put down the 1956 revolt
in Hungary. According to Dan-
FBI criticized
by police chief
of Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES (UPI) - The
Federal Bureau of Investigation
Wednesday drew criticism from
Los Angeles Police Chief Wil
liam H. Parker for not bringing
his department into the local
search for kidnaped Frank Si
natra Jr.
"We have never faced this
situation before in this city,"
Parker said during a news con
ference. "This is the first time
that we were faced with a
problem where there was crim
inal activity in the city of Los
Angeles that was known to a
law enforcement agency where
we were not permitted to par
ticipate." Parker repeatedly refused to
brand the FBI as "uncoopera
tive," but made it clear he was
indignant over the handling of
the case. He said he wanted
the record straight so the pub
lic would not blame the Los
Angeles police for not taking
action.
The police chief said he did
not believe "our policy would
be the same" as the FBI's in
letting the kidnapers escape
with the ransom money. How
ever, he said the life of Sinatra
Jr. apparently was the "para
mount consideration."
iel, Castro said he and Khrush
chev took this to mean that the
United States planned a second
invasion attempt against Cuba
and did not expect Russia to
intervene.
White House Press Secretary
Pierre Salinger, who was
among those present during the
Adzhubei interview, said Wed
nesday that was not the way it
was at all. He said his notes
showed no mention of Hungary,
but an interpreter's notes
showed that Kennedy "did use
the world Hungary, but not in
the context used by Castro."
According , to Salinger, the
President said the United
States found the Cuban situa
tion difficult. To show the im
portance of the Cuban problem,
Salinger said, Kennedy told Ad
zhubei Russia should recall how
important it considered Hun
gary in 1956. The record of the
conversation shows no talk
about non-intervention, Salinger
said.
Kennedy and Adzhubei met
again later that same day, Sal
inger said. The interpreter's
notes for that meeting showed
that "the subject of Cuba did
not come up."
Daniel, who was with Castro
when news of Kennedy's assas
sination reached the Cuban pre
mier, reported on his meeting
in an article in the New Repub
lic magazine. Castro said he
wanted the world to know "the
true story of the missile em
placement." Oswald short
of funds on his
Mexican trip
MEXICO CITY (UPI) - The
weekly magazine Manana said
today Lee H. Oswald, the al
leged assassin" of President
Kennedy, apparently was
"short of funds", during his
stay here in September.
The magazine estimated that
Oswald spent only about $26
during a brief stay in which he
visited the Russian and Cuban
embassies, ostensibly in an un
successful effort to obtain visas
for a trip to Russia by way of
Cuba.
Manana said Os.wa.ld came
here by bus from Laredo, on
the Texas border. He registered
at the Comercio Hotel, a low-
priced establishment near the
railway station which is hardly
ever patronized by Americans.
