beds will be done by utiliz

contractor.
Construction plans were an
nounced by the board of super
visors this week.
Will SaT., $25,000
Giordano proposed using
prison labor under supervision,
pointing out it would save Sis
kiyou coenty taxpayers about
$2,000. The board of supervis
ors rejected single bids submit
ted Xpr construction of the jail
and hospital.
The bid for the jail totaled
$32,306, and the hospital con
struction bid was $154,528.75.
Giordano agreed to build both
structures for $131,000, which
includes $12,000 in salary but
no architect's fees.
Joe G. Allen, chairman of the
board, said a written agreement
with Giordano will be drawn up
later, and that salary will not
start until Jan. 1.
The county planning commis
sion recommended earlier this
year that construction of the
buildings should not exceed
$104,000.
The jail building will include
offices for the sheriff-coroner,
his deputies and file rooms. Con
struction of the building will get
underway by Oct. 1, and be com
pleted before Jan 1 when the
hospital annex construction
starts.

On Disarmament
Paris (U.PJ Soviet Premier
Nikolai Bulganin has sent Presi
dent Eisenhower a long letter
aimed at breaking the deadlock
over world disarmament, au
thoritative sources said today.
Soviet Charge d' Affaires Alex
ander Anikine delivered a copy
of the letter this morning to
French Premier Edgar Faure
along with a note calling atten
tion to it. British Prime Minis
ter Anthony Eden got a copy
last night.
French sources said the Bul
ganin letter to Mr. Eisenhower
covered 11 pages. It was one of
the first major Soviet diplo
matic moves to prepere the way
for the Big Four foreign minis
ters conference in Geneva next
month.
Faure was reported to have
looked with favor on the Soviet
move. But the French Foreign
Office did not release the text
ot either the letter to Mr. Eisen
hower or the covering note.
It raised immediate specula
tion that Russia is making new
proposals to break the deadlock
wjiich has continued in the U.N.
Disarmament Subcommittee in
New York.
The key dispute between East
and West always has bees over
how disarmament should be
verified and controlled.

of six per cent of the gross' cost.
Laughlin Steel Plans Stock Sale
J. N. Laughlin, president of
Laughlin Alloy Steel company,
announced toaay that his com
pany., had retained Donald C.
Sloan and Co., Portland invest
ment bankers, and that $200,000
in non-assessable common stock
in the company would be offer
ed for sale in Oregon immedi
ately. There has been no previous

Laughlin said.
Laughlin stated that "a num-
Minor Auto Mishaps
Reported in County
Two minor automobile acci
dents occurred yesterday in
Jackson county, according to
state police.
Two farm trucks collided at
the intersection of Madrona lane
and- Oak. Grove rd., at about 10
a.m. One of the trucks, loaded
with pears, was operated by
Harry Beers, 63, of ,2681 Merri
man rd., and the other, which
was empty, was driven by Les
ter A. Wilcox, 63, of 2335 Stew
art ave., police said. Only minor
injuries and no damage were
reported.
In the other accident, a pickr
up truck, owned by Larson May
company, rolled over the bank
of a private driveway and over
turned when 1 the emergency
brake slipped, police said. The
vehicle had been parked by Rob
ert F. Nichols, 35, of 1155 Janes
st." according to investigating
officers. i -. "
ber of local people" had invested
privately in the White City oper
ation, dealing directly with him
or his associates, but said that
until recently no public sale of
slock had been planned.
Several Factors
"Our decision to change our
original plans was based on a
number of factors," Laughlin
said. "We feel that the market
for our product is the most fa
vorable which we have ever
seen, and that it is to our ad
vantage to fully capitalize as rap
idly as possible and . expedite
the development of .the existing
program."
The new building at White
City is scheduled for completion
this week, and the company's
main electric melting furnace is
en route from Green & Com
pany, Seattle, and should also
arrive within a week, Laughlin
said.

cash, was drawn on the Rogue
Valley State bank. The check

Back Stairs: Friends Sure Iko Undecided

stairs at the summer White
House.
Friends close to President Ei
senhower are convinced that he,
not only hasn t made up his
mind to run next year, but he
isn't thinking much about the
decision on his current golf-fishing-work
stay in Colorado.
They think he'll make up his
mind firmly and probably quick
ly when he feels the time has
come to make the decision. Un
til then, it'll be anybody's guess.
Mr. Eisenhower not only isn't
worrying over the decision, he's
apparently annoyed by all the
editorial speculation over what
he'll do. There's much less of
that in the West than in the
East, where Washington develop
ments loom larger in import
ance, i
For that reason, some of the
President's . friends attach no
significance to his recent golf
course remark' that the pleasant
Colorado air and his successful
golf shots are "another reason
for getting out."
And nothing, it is said, fires
up the Eisenhower ire quicker
than asking him whether he will
seek reelection.
. Mr. Eisenhower's favorite
method! - of cooking mountain
trout, vegetable stew and thick
steaks have become almost com
mon household knowledge.
But he also showed his adept
ness at another favorite dish
fried chicken the first dayhe
arrived here from Denver for
his. second round of trout fish
ing on his Colorado visit.
First thing after he arrived at
his spacious guest house on the
Byers Peak Ranch of Denver
businessman Aksel Nielsen, Mr
Eisenhower turned to the kitch
en and brewed coffee and four
hours later returned with seven
nice trout. But the trout yielded
on the evening's menu to- the
President's yen for fried chick

Golf and fishing are the Presi
dent's most publicized hobbies.
They're also the ones that oc
cupy most of his leisure mom
ents. But whenever he can, Mr. Ei
senhower works in some time at
another favorite sport from his
Army days sk$et shooting.Q
