Sen. Richard L. Neuberger and Rob ert D. Holmes, candidate for governor, yesterday criticized Gov. Elmo Smith ior not re questing federal aid for the flood-stricken town of Mitchell in central Oregon. Sen. Neuberger said he was "amazed'' to receive a letter from the White House stating that Gov. Smith had not yet re-1 quested the President to author ize federal assistance for the town. Neuberger Asks Aid Neuberger had sent a tele gram to President Eisenhower requesting disaster relief for the town, struck by a flash flood last Friday night. Neuberger ' said he received a reply stating that the President could not act . until he received a request from the governor of the state. In Salem. Gov. Smith said state agencies, including the governors office, were doing everything possible to ascertain the needs and requirements of the flood stricken town of Mit chell "When we find out what the needs are for those people, we will take whatever steps are within our power, both on the state and federal level, to re- ieve their situation," the gov ernor said.

' "We are proceeding under necessary federal regulations re garding declaration of disaster areas," the governor said.

Smith added.
