How ever, the two-way lane was nar row. . The Clear Lake cutoff was to be opened to travel early this afternoon, after being closed for two days. The North San tiam was opened about mid night last night, and the South Santiam at 7 a.m. Cars today were moving over the Santiam divide in a snowy trench, with the roadside depth of the pack measured at 156 inches. Chains were being used early in the day, following a snow fall last night of six inch es. Snow was still falling this morning. Roadside depth of the Mt. Hood pack this morning at Gov ernment uamp, was 98 inches. Only two inches of snow fell there last night. There was considerable snow to the south, with LaPine re porting a total pack of 25 inch es. Snow was still falling there at reporting time this morning. Most state roads blocked by snow or water were opening to day, following the heavy storm. StiU blocked today was the new Winnemucca to the Sea route in southeastern Oregon. It was closed from Adel to the Nevada line.

(UPI) -When Robert Mallicoat, 23, was taken to a hospital following an Still no leads Clearing weather permits air search Oswald killer to be given mental tests DALLAS (UPIWack Ruby's defense attorneys today with drew their request for his re lease on bail and the slayer of Lee Harvey Oswald was or dered back to his cell pending intensive mental examinations under guard in a hospital. At the same time, the de fense presented Judge Joe B. Brown with a motion demanding a change of venue that would put Ruby's murder trial in a city outside Dallas. Brown, a criminal district court judge, said he would rule on the mo tion when he opens the scheduled trial in his Dallas court, Feb. 3. Brown, holding the bail bond hearing, said he would confer with Dist. Atty. Henry Wade and chief defense attorney Mel vin Belli on the change of venue. The court named Dr. Martin L. Fowler, of the Titus-Harris Clinic in John Sealy Hospital, Galveston, Tex., as a "disin terested party" to conduct ex aminations of the man who shot and killed the accused presidential assassin before a nationwide television audience last Nov. 25. Fowler had written a letter to Brown urging intensive exami nation. The defense argued that the 52-year-old Ruby had brain damaee and was so unstable he did not know what -he was do ing when he pulled the trigger. Ruby was ordered held in jail and will be removed under guard to a hospital for brain wave tests, spinal fluid tests, X-rays and other examinations. SE Oregon buried under deep snow Search continued as weather conditions permitted today for a light plane missing since last Friday with four urovint, Calif., men aboard. Bad weather has hampered search so far, but on Monday half a dozen planes hunted with out success in the Fall River and Paulina Mountain areas south and southwest of Bend. Search spreads from this re gion to the Lakeview area, which Monday was under a low ceiling. At 9:45 a.m. today, two planes were dispatched from Roberts Field to check on conditions, ac cording to information from Al Tilse, search and rescue coordi nator. Pilots were Cal Butler, Redmond, and Jack Lidell, Cul ver. Tilse said that searchers are absolutely without clues as to where the missing plane may have crashed, or landed. Tilse said it is difficult to send out ground crews, unless there is some good lead to trace out. Ground crews will be dis patched if needed. Jury selection is continuing CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (UPI) Federal Judge Frank Wilson today overruled another move to delay the Jury-tampering tri al of Teamsters union Presi dent James Hoffa and ordered the selection of a jury to re sume. It Is feared that the white plane, with red trimmings, may be buried in deep snow that nas fallen in recent days. Aboard the plane, which was lost on a flight from Bremerton, Wash., to Alturas, Calif., last Friday night were the Rev. Roderick. Hulet, the pilot, ana passengers Jack Alt, Laurence Green and Mayo Schroeder. The four, it has been learned, were on a one-day round trip from Oroville to Bremerton, Wash., where they looked over a new church under construc tion there. The north bound plane, its wings iced at the time, landed at the Redmond airport about 6 a.m. Friday, and the four men had breakfast in Redmond, be fore continuing north. The Rev. Mr. Hulet is the son of a former pastor of the Free Methodist Church in Redmond, the Rev. William Hulet, who was in Redmond in 1933 when the church was organized. (First spellings of the name, in reports from Portland, Oro ville and Bremerton, was "Hew lett," but records in Redmond indicate this was in error.) Some doubt was held that the search could be continued into the Lakeview country today. That area was in the grip of a heavy storm early in the day with deep snow covering hills, A state officer reported he had heard a plane over Lake- view after midnight Friday, anout tne time the Hulet plane should have passed over the area. By United Praia International Southeast Oregon staggered under as much as two feet of snow today as wintry weather moved in over the entire state. Schools In Lake and Klamath counties shut down and tele phone communic ation with Lakeview was disrupted today. The U.S. Weather Bureau re ported 24 Inches of snow on the Ground at Lakeview and said 14 inches of tt feu Monday, up wards of 14 inches was reported at Klamath Falls. Power outages also plagued the southeast Oregon area. Temperatures dropped throughout the state during the night. Mixed rain and snow was forecast for Western Oregon through Wednesday, along with a chance of a few thunder storms. Snow showers were pre dicted east of the Cascades. Snow fell in Portland's West Hills this morning. It also snowed this morning at Medford. Heavy, wet flakes delighted children In the Oceanlake to Newport area on the coast Mon day afternoon, an area normally free of snow. Schools in north- era Lincoln County let out early Monday. A slide across the Southern Pacific railroad tracks near Westiir, southeast of Eugene, was cleared late Monday. Snow continued to hamper mountain travel. The State Highway Depart ment said 92 inches or more than seven feet of snow fell at Willamette Pass In the 72 hours starting at 8 a.m. last Friday. Negro named replacement for Murrow WASHINGTON (UPI)-Pres-i ident Johnson today announced I the resignation of Edward R. Murrow as director of the Unit-1 ed States Information Agency and the selection of Carl T. Rowan, present ambassador to Finland, as his successor. Murrow, who underwent an operation for lung cancer last October, informed the Presi dent recently that he could not continue full - time government service. Rowan, a reporter for the Minneapolis Tribune before join ing the government in 1961, will become the first Negro in his tory to sit in regularly on meet ings of the National Security Council and the Cabinet. His nomination will be submitted to the Senate sometime late today or Wednesday. Rowan arrived In Washington from Helsinki Saturday. Mur row left Monday for La Jolla, Calif. Johnson issued a special state ment extolling Rowan's qualifi cations for the USIA director ship. Tanganyikan revolt reported NAIROBI. Kenya (UPI) - The Tanganyikan army revolt spread today to the trade cent er of Tabora, 450 miles west of Dar - es - Salaam where fighting and looting was reported rag ing anew. The British and Uganda gov ernments said they had receiv ed reports that African troops of the 2nd Battalion of the Tan ganyika Rifles had mutinied against their White British of ficers and that fighting was un derway at their base in Tabora. Monday, the 1st Battalion of the Tanganyika Rifles revolted in Dar - es - Salaam, setting off shooting, looting and rioting which were reported continu ing today in the African and Arab suburbs of the city. The two battalions constitute the entire army in Tanganyika. Tabora Is located on the main railway line between Dar-es- Salaam and Chicoma on Lake Tanganyika. Communications were almost completely cut off with Tang anyika, reliable reports said 10 persons had been killed there. Unconfirmed reports put the toll at 30, with another 120 in jured In Dar-es-Salaam. The whereabouts of Tanganyi kan President Julius Nyerere remained uncertain. One report said he left the capital Monday and joined the 2nd Battalion of the Tanganyikan Rifles in Ta bora. Another report had Nyerere broadcasting today from the state house in his capital of Dar-es-Salaam, urging peace and calm among his people. United Press International correspondent Anthony Dunn re ported by telephone from Dar-es-Salaam early today that shooting and plundering erupt ed in the African and Arab quarters after a quiet night. Then communications were cut. France may invite Chou for visit PARIS (UPI)-The govern- i ment maintained silence today on an unofficial report that President. Charles de Gaulle may invite Premier Chou En-lai ' of Communist China to visit! France. I The report appeared Monday in the influential newspaper Le Monde. It followed other reports, cir culated in diplomatic quarters, that De Gaulle will announce France's recognition of Red China either next Monday or next Tuesday. That De Gaulle will recoemze Communist China appeared a foregone conclusion. Only the exact date was in doubt. In Washington, officials said De Gaulle was expected to make the announcement at a press conference on Jan. 31. The French government, in a short and dry note, today re jected the U.S. protest over f ranee s forthcoming recogni tion of Communist China. The U.S. note was under- Would trim $500 million in fiscal 65 WASHINGTON (UPI)-Presi- dent Johnson today sent Con gress a $97.9 billion "economy and progress budget brimming with optimism and radiating election-year significance. Johnson proposed cutting federal spending $500 million under current levels in the new 1965 fiscal year, marking only the second time in nine years this has been done. But he said his budget "would advance our nation to ward greater national security, a stronger economy and reali zation of the American dream of individual security and equal opportunity for all." The President also predicted that the Treasury would wind up $4.9 billion in the red next year compared with $10 billion for the current llscal year end- stood to have criticized the forthcoming recognition by De ine June 30.

There were other Indications of dissatisfaction within the North Atlantic Treaty Organiza tion (NATO). Heinrich Krone, one of West Germany's top trouble-shooters and a minister without portfolio, came to Paris Monday to dis cuss "recent political events' with De Gaulle. West Germany, France's partner in a bilateral "friendship treaty," also is firmly against the recognition of Ked uilna. But a number of diplomatic sources said they believed one of the main reasons De Gaulle was getting ready to make the move was to dramatize his in dependence of the United States. They said he was still smart ing over U.S. and British rejec tion of his plans for a three way "directorate" to run West ern affairs. Tongue Point school proposed WASHINGTON (UPI)-Presi- dent Johnson's budget message to Congress today asked $2,042, 000 for establishment of an In dian school at the abandoned Tongue Point Naval Station near Astoria. Ore. The request was included among $210 million asked of Congress for services and con structlon by the Bureau of In dian Affairs during the fiscal year starting July 1. Plans lor tne scnool were an nounced in December. A school housing 1,000 students and about 165 faculty memoers is piannea, according to Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore. Tongue Point last September also was announced by the late President John F. Kennedy as a future site for a Defense De partment weapons system man agement school and a rescue helicopter base. Fate of the management school was reported uncertain earlier this month, however, while a study was made to de termine if it would be incom patible with the proposed Indian school. ly passage by Congress of the Sll biUion tax cut bin and we stimulus It is expected to give the economy. - . Cut Detente Podge Johnson also assumed that Congress would go along with a $1.3 billion slash in defense spending and give him new cot ton and dalrv nrofframs to flem save another $1.16 billion. Either or both of these as sumptions could be upset by some new international crisis (Johnson foresaw continued un easy peace) or by the refusal of the lawmakers to overhaul the farm program. Treasury secretary Douglas Dillon said the President's cut in expenditures greatly in creased chances of getting a balanced budget in fiscal 1967. Previously, the Treasury indi cated the deficit would not be erased until fiscal 1968. Johnson, who called the budg et the first major task con fronting him after succeeding the slain John F. Kennedy, said he went on the theory that "an austere budget need not be and should not be a standstill budg et . . . this is, I believe, a budget of economy and prog ress." Blur Image The result was calculated to blur the spendthrift image that Republicans like to put on Dem ocrats. It includes economies to please the conservative, social reforms to attract the liberal and the $11 billion tax cut to tantalize anyone that might be left. Johnson said, however, that "a government that ii strong. A breakdown el budget Heme Included tor Oregon appears en page two, column one. Other budget stories appear on page five. Area work is included in buaqer The President's budget for the fiscal year 1965 Includes for the Bureau of Reclamation a to tal of $4,440,000, according to in formation received by The Bul letin today from the office of Rep. Al Ullman, Washington, D. C. Of the total asked for the Bu reau, $40,000 would be used on the Ochoco Irrigation District, with $50,000 earmarked for the Deschutes Central Division, pre sumably a study of the propos ed diversion of Deschutes River water across the lava fields from the Benham Falls area. In addition, a sum of $100,000 is being sought for the develop ment of camping facilities along the Sherars Bridge - Cedar Is land section of the Deschutes River, proposed to be opened to tne public tnrougn construction by the BLM of access roads. Rep. Ullman also reported that the President's budget holds a total of $72,433,000 for the Corns of Engineers, to be spent in the Second District, but not in the Deschutes country. Rep. Ullman said that the Ore con deleeation presented united front In seeking the funds, with Senator Morse and Senator Neubereer working with Ullman In the effort to get Sec ond District funds.

Salem, from renting fine. i any of their 12 apartments until the Negro family has the oppor tunity to accept or reject one of them. Circuit Judge George Duncan scheduled a hearing for 1:30 p.m. Friday to determine if the temporary restraining order shall remain in effect until the case is set for trial. The action was brought by Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton In the name of Labor Commis sioner Norman O. Nilsen. whose office is charged with eniorcinf Oregon's civil rights laws. The 1963 legislature amended the state's civil rights laws to put teeth In conciliation agree ment enforcement procedures. The stage for the precedent setting showdown was set last September when Compton Mc Kenzie filed a complaint charg ing that after he rented an apartment from Mrs. Goerke the apartment was re-rented to a third party and occupied be fore be and bis family could move In. At that time, Goerke said he had rented the apartment with out knowledge of his wife's ac tion. After McKenzie filed his com plaint, the Goerkes entered into a conciliation agreement where by they were to offer the next available apartment to the Mc Kenzie. The complaint charged an apartment has been vacant since the first of the year, but that the McKenzies have not been allowed to move in. Under Oregon law, valid com plaints are followed by concilia tion agreements. This mams one of the few times in Oregon history a conciliation agreement apparently has not been follow ed. Oregon civil rights laws cover housing, employment, and public accommodations. The State Justice Department said the pending court action seeks enforcement of the concil iation agreement. A spokesman said the court could either per manently restrain the landlords from renting their apartments, or restrain further rentals until the McKenzies have an oppor tunity to rent one of the apart ments. A spokesman said the McKen zles could bring separate action for breach of the conciliation agreement and file for punitive and actual damages if they ex ist. a government that Is solvent, a government that Is compassion ate is the kind of government that endures." The President outlined his spending plans in terms of both the familiar administratlva budget and the cash budget, newly emphasized by Kennedy last year. The cash budget takes ae count of collections and pay- ments by the social security and Highway trust funds. These items are not included In the administrative budget and soma economists consider the cash budget more realistic. Here Is how Johnson's pro posals look under both systems as compared witn tne current fiscal year: Administrative) Budget 1f4 (billions) 1HI Revenues $88.4 $93 Spending $98.4 $97.1 Deficit $10.4 . Cash Budget Revenues $114.4 $1W.T Spending $122.7 $122.7 Deficit $ 8.3 $ 7.9 The President's specific pro posals included: Speedy passage of the (11 billion tax reduction which he called "an integral and vital part of my budgetary proposal" and a badly needed stimulus to the economy. The dui passed the House last session and now is in the Senate Finance Com mittee which hopes to complete action this week. Attack Poverty A $1 billion Increase fai new spending authority to launch "an all-out attack on poverty. The President said these funds would be channelled Into pro grams Intended to improve job opportunities for the unem ployed and low income groups. Emphasis will be placed on raising the "educational, health and skill levels" of youth to en able them to break out of the "vicious circle" of inherited poverty. -A $1.3 billion budget cut In defense programs to a total of S54 miuon. jonnson a tea me nation's "high level of pre paredness," and said that econ omies implemented by the) armed forces in recent years were beginning to show results.
