Harney County Superinten dent W. W. Sargent said the bill sets up a false assumption that basic education in every district of the state costs $230 per child. Also criticized at a House Education Committee hearing was the bill's premise that tax able property valuation is a measure of a district's wealth and ability to support an ade quate educational program. Carroll Howe, Klamath coun ty superintendent, suggested the Legislature take steps to tax municipally-owned utilities, tap O & C funds for schools, equal ize county school funds and make adjustments for differ ences in property valuations. The key district - formula would set Portland as the base and measure all other districts' ability to pay for he $230 per child basic educational program a6ainst Portland's.

MEDFORD Elkins-Clark Trial On Wiretap Charges Starts in Portland Portland (U.R) A trial on federal charges of illegally tap ping telephone conversations started here today against racke teer James B. Elkins and his employee, Raymond Clark. But most of the federal govern ment s witnesses were ordered by a state Circuit Court judge to stay away from the Federal Court at least until 9:30 a.m. Thursday. The conflict between federal and state authorities prosecuting a mass of vice indictments in Portland came on the motion of attorneys for Elkins and Clark in the Circuit Court of Judge Charles W. Redding. Injunction Issued Judge Redding issued a tem porary injunction restraining 13 Oregon and Multnomah county law enforcement officers from appearing in the Federal Court trial against Elkins and Clark. At the same timj, Judge Wil liam East in federal court denied a motion by Elkins and Clark for postponement of their trial and jury selection began at 10 a.m. today. Elkins and Clark contend that the raid in which evid"nce was seized to be used against them was conducted illegally. They based their motion for a re straint of witnesses on a United States Supreme Court decision which said federal officers who had taken part in an illegal raid could not testify in a state case. Counsel for Elkins and Clark argued before Judge Redding that the reverse should apply in their case protecting the defend ants from testimony of state of ficers who conducted an illegal raid. Schrunk, Langley Included Included in the restraining der were Mayor Terry Schrunk and District Attorney William Langley, as well as top officers of Multnomah county and state police. Judge Redding said he issued the injunction for 48 hours feel ing that additional time was needed, "reluctant as I am to in terfere with the federal process. and a trial about to proceed." He added, "there are remedies Stockholm Suspect Said Native oi U. S. Stockholm (U.R) Stockholm police said today that jailed spy suspect Robert Folke Damstedt is a native of the United States. They said he was born in Kear ney, N.J., in 1929. Damstedt, an assistance sec retary of Sweden's Atomic En ergy Commission, and Goestra A. T. Jacobsson, a naval employ ee, were indicted Monday for "grave espionage." Police said Damstedt's father was working for an American company in New Jersey when he was born but that Damstedt was returned to Sweden when he was four years old. The Stockholm morning news paper Morgonbladet which broke the .case Monday repeated its charge that Damstedt is un der suspicion of selling nuclear secrets to Russia. Police sources indicated the accusations included one that the men attempted to betray submarine secrets to Russia.
