Saburov, who was ousted as chairman of the sla'e commission for current planning, apparently stays on as a full Presidium member. Sabu rov was replaced as planning chief by a fellow Presidium member, Mikhail G. Pervuklun. Experts aren't convinced the Soviet leaders have given a true picture of what they really talked about in Moscow. All the public emphasis was on the shakeup in the economic plan ning staff. Difficult To Believe More news may leak out later on any high government person nel changes and the role interna tional alfairs. particularly the crisis in the satellites, played in the top-level Soviet meeting. One official observer said he found it difficult to believe that the top Reds had not talked "about Hungary." Russia's troubles in Hungary. Poland and Yugoslavia, coupled with some unrest at home, have given rise to widespread reports of Kremlin friction. It has been suggested that an all-out battle for top Soviet power is being fought. Riddleberger Not To Be Nominated Washington UP.) Presi dent Eisenhower plan to with draw the nominatipn of James E. Riddleberger, U. S. ambassa dor to Yugoslavia, as 'assistant secretary of state for European affairs. The President's action may be taken as part of a sweeping White House move to nominate a number of new ambassadors soon after Congress convenes. Mr. Eisenhower may nominate between 25 and 35 American diplomats to new posts in 1957. There is some speculation that during next year Mr. Eisenhow er may appoint new envoys to Moscow and Paris. Some of the very early nominations are ex pected to include appointments to Britain, West Germany. Aus tralia, New Zealand, the Phillip pines, and Norway. High administration nources said Wednesday that Riddle berger, a trusted career diplo mat, had requested that his recess appointment as assistant secretary of state for European affairs be withdrawn. His re quest came after he found he is suffering from diabetes. He is expected to continue as ambassa dor to Yugoslavia. c Icy Spots Hamper Oregon Road Travel Sa!rn 5;U.R) Freezing tem peratures around the state made nwnyOreKon highways icy to QJay. te,Stte Highway Depart iTnerit warned.

The man was found beside a nearby railroad track. He was one of those in critical condition. Police Chief J. P. Askew per sonally directed the search for victims in the shambles of the building.

The explosion rocked a wide area and temporarily put elec tric service out of commission in this West Georgia city. One charred body was recov ered from the ruius shortly after the fire was brought under con trol. The plant manufactured alu minum framew:ork and parts by the extrusion process.
