Portland Newsmen
Summoned Before
ultnomah Jury
Portland (U.R A Circuit i
Court order late Friday delayed
the effectiveness of subpoenas
against three Portland news
papermen summoned to testify
in a Multnomah county grand
jury investigation of vice and
corruption charges.
Three newsmen from the Ore
gonian were subpoenaed by Dis
trict Attorney William Langley
Friday morning and were or
dered to appear before the grand
jury at 2 p.m. to tell what they
know about gambling and vice
in Portland. v
Subpoenas Challenged
The newspaper's attorney,
David Fain, challenged the sub
poenas on the grounds that
Langley should not be conduct
ing the grand jury probe because
his office had been mentioned
in a series of expose articles.
Fain told the court that Attorney
Laglie May Decide
Future Next Week
Olympia (U.R) The biggest
unanswered question in Wash
ington state politics what will
Gov. Arthur B. Langlie's future
be may be answered within the
next week.
In reply to questions of news
men at Olympia, Langlie said he
"hopes to have the decisoin set
tled within a week." The gov
ernor declined to hint what the
decision might be.
One possibility is an an
nouncement that he will yield
to Republican pressure that he
seek the U. S. Senate seat held
by Democrat Warren G. Magnu
son. In addition, Langlie is con
sidered a possible successor to
Douglas McKay, the resigned
Interior secretary, and has not
completely shut the door on run
ning for a fourth term as gover
nor. Langlie privately has indicat
ed a personal desire to retire
from public office.

DEPLORE RACKETEERING
Eugene iU.R) Delegates to
the annual convention of the
Oregon State Council of Carpen
ters Friday adopted unanimously
a resolution "deploring all kinds
of racketeering."
o
STREETS
ESDAY
General Robert Y. Thornton had
said earlier that it would be in-
appropriate for Langley to con
duct the investigation.
Newsmen subpoenaed by
Langley were Wallace Turner
and William Lambert, authors of
the crime series, and Herbert
Lundy, editor of the Oregonian
editorial page.
Lundy charged that "sub
poenaing staff members of the
Oregonian by L a n g 1 e y is an
obvious attempt by the district
attorney to stifle publication of
information gained through the
Oregonian's investigation which
would be embarrassing to Lang
ley." The newspaper's Saturday
edition carried another article
of the crime series purporting to
link Langley's name with gamb
ling figures.
Expand Investigation
Meanwhile, Gov. Elmo Smith
directed Oregon state police to
expand its investigation of vice
into Multnomah county. State
Police Superintendent H. G.
Maison said he would take
charge of the probe himself.
Gov. Smith told state police to
go to work "with all the investi
gative resources available to
them for the purpose of conduct
ing a complete investigation of
newspaper charges that public
officials were involved in crim
inal activity."
Smith observed that it w a s
equally important to find out if
unjustified charges had been
made. He said "the innocent
should not be damaged by un
substantiated charges. It is more
important to be right than to be
hasty."
Fire Breaks Out in
Drill Barge Friday
Umatilla (U.R) Fire broke
