The attitude of national maga zines and other publications to ward education is becoming more favorable, Guhl declared, nd said this was due largely to efforts of educators and others connected with the school sys tems.

McKay carried his campaign to Reed college and declared that Morse and his supporters have ''turned their back on prowerful and meaningful is sues that can overtake and en gulf" them.

Race-conscious settlers first threatened t o demonstrate against the princess' attendance at the party because Wood is the leader of the multi-racial Capri ton party. However, native con stables patrolled the area and Nairobi's social set stayed quiet ly indoors. The princess did not dance at the party, although the band played her favorite rock 'n' roll numbers.

McKay said the federal gov ernment could not afford to build all the power projects needed and said a loosening of money controls would lead to spiraling inflation. In an earlier address yester day. Morse charged that "budget slashers in such places as the department of the interior have pointed out that they have cut fund requests for access roads and similar projects. In reality, they have saved pennies and lost many dollars in the long run by failing to aid an expanding economy," he said. A Republican team of Phil Hitchcock, Don Walker and Ivan Congelton, made a flying visit through central Ore gon yesterday, stopping in Mad ras, Redmond. Prineville and Bend to plug their party's cand idates. Hitchcock told his listeners that Morse is making campaign promises that are impossible to fulfill. He singled out for special criticisms the senators stand on old age assistance payments and removal of curbs on inflation. "His promises to those re ceiving old age assistance are both malicious and cruel," Hitchcock said. Neuberger Stumps Sen. Richard Neuberger stump ed eastern Oregon in behalf of Morse and at Vale called for extension of the soil bank pro gram to include some vegetables and row crops. He urged revival of the Columbia Basin power development which he said had been "throttled by four years of Republican political collabora tion."

Two hacksaw blades bound to broomsticks were used by the men, and they had succeeded in cutting through 11 inches across and 4 inches down each side of a Klamath county jail wall when Britton, Deputy Sheriff Woody Joe and Jailer Fred Calfee moved in on them. Had the prisoners succeeded in cutting a hole big enough to let them through, it would have gained them acccess to a plumb ing corridor. Britton said they probably hoped to overpower a guard there and escape.
