MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUKI JTTS ii. IHImiiiphrey Warns figaii Monday, february 7 1S55 Far East Turmoil Believed Desire To , Grab West Europe r "Washington (U.R) Sen. Hu ' bert H. Humphrey warned to- ' day that the United States must not let Communist flare-ups in the Far East divert its attention from the "more critical situa tion" in West Germany. o The Minnesota Democrat, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said in an interview with the United Press that "I believe one reason for this situation in the .Far East is the Soviet desire to divert our attention from the even more critical situation in Western Eu rope and the inclusion of West Germany in the rearming of free nations. Part of Broad Pattern "We must not forget that what is going on in the Far East is only part of the broader pattern of Soviet strategy to divert us into the Far East while they gobble up what they want in Western Europe," Humphrey said. , , Does he think the Chinese . Communists are merely bluffing? . "I don't think we ought to as sume that they won't try every thing," he said. "I think they eare willing to take . all kinds of chances and we have got to be prepared to meet those risks and check them. What about his temporarily stalled resolution urging the President to seek cease fire talks through the United Nations? "I think the Senate missed the boat by not approving the resoli tion last week in view of the subsequent Communist Chinese refusal. We could- have very well gone on record in support of the U.N. and the effort to bring peace. . But just as the Red Chinese refused to accept, so did some of our Republican friends refuse to support our own effort in the U.N." Referring To Knowland He was -referring mainly to Senate GOP Leader William F. Knowland. Humphrey said he would bring up the resolution again today at a closed meeting of the foreign relations committee. But he was , doubtful of pressing for a vote 'in view of the Red Chinese re jection. Humphrey said he has "never been able to understand" ' why Knowland "and others have been such strong opposition to U.N, proposals." Humphrey said "we ought to realize that one reason the Soviets prefer a separate confer ence" outside the U.N. "is be cause they can forward their own objective of dividing the United States from our allies Services Tuesday for Mrs. Florence Palmer Private funeral services will be held Tuesday, Feb. 8, in the L.

FREE REDEEM Your HEINZ COUPON FOR A JAR OF BABY FOOD Visit Our Ike Will Unveil Plans for Easing Classroom Lack Washington U.R) Presi dent Eisenhower will unveil the administration's program for easing the nation's critical class room shortage in a special edu cation message this week, in formed sources said today. These sources said the educa tion message, originally sched uled to be delivered to Congress about Feb. 15, has been whipped into shape early, apparently to head off a drive by Senate Dem ocrats to enact a plan of their own. Decision to Figure There were indications the Supreme court's school segrega tion of aid to parochial schools will figure prominently in con sideration of school aid legisla tion. ' The plan is understood to in volve some grants of federal aid and a new long-range program to help communities shoulder the expense of school construc tion. A new program of federal guarantees for state loans was understood to be a key feature of the administration plan. It would set up a new federal au thority to guarantee loans for state education authorities "and permit ' them to borrow money at low interest for school con struction; ' . . . . . Would Charge -Rent The state authorities would build schools and charge "rent" to school districts until the buildings were financed and the loans retired. Under the plan, school districts, many of them up to their legal - debt limit, could pay for schools . without additional bonded indebtedness. That phase of the plan would not increase the federal 'debt. But it is anticipated that the President will have to ask for a supplemental appropriation to finance grants and other fea- Prospect Man , Loses . 7-Y ear-Old Legal Test Grants Pass A trial of a suit delayed for more' than seven years resulted in the denial of the judgment for H.

The Senate Labor committee, headed by chairman Lister Hill (D.-Ala.) already has held a se ries of hearings on aid for school construction. Pending be fore the committee are a num ber of bills which would provide as much as $500,000,000 a year on a matching basis to help the states build schools both of Grants Pass. The trial was held Friday at Grants Pass Making the decision was Circuit Judge O. J. Millard. ; , Baker's claim alleged that a balance was due on a bill for labor and parts furnished by him between April 20 and June 1, 1946, for repair of a logging tractor for the two defendants.
