Non-Agricultural Employment Less Than Year Ago Salem HP! Non-agricultural employment in Oregon was estimated at 478.000 in mid April compared with 467,000 a month before and 480,000 a year ago, the State Unemployment Compensation Commission has reported. The commission said seasonal operations were picking up but had so far failed to recover the ground lost early this spring. Unemployment claims declin ed noticeable to about the same level as 1954, but there was still an undue number of con struction and lumber workers ' seeking unemployment benefits. More than 6,000 loggers and sawmill workers returned to work " last month to bring the total in this basic industry to 54,000, still some 7,000 short of last year. Construction firms reported 22,000 jobs last month compared with 20,000 in March and 22,500 a year ago. t 12 Average weekly earnings of "Oregon's1 110,000 production workers was slightly 'higher in April than in March at $87.50, but this was still $5.48 under a year ago.

Scientists Hope To Test Bomb Tuesday Las Vegas, Nev. (IP) Atomic Energy Commission scientists hoped today that 13 would be their lucky number for the start of the often-delayed spring-summer series of A-tests at the Ne vada test site. The latest attempt to test one of two relatively small nuclear devices, scheduled at 4:55 a.m. (p.d.t) today, was called off for 24 hours Sunday night for the 12th consecutive time because of wind conditions. Try No. 13 was scheduled for Tuesday morning at the same time. Coastal Delegation To Witness Signing Salem HP A delegation of officials from seven Oregon coastal counties will be on hand here Tuesday afternoon when Gov. Robert Holmes is sched uled to sign into law a measure authorizing $12,600,000 in bonds for highway improvements. Scheduled for improvement is the 37-mile stretch on the south ern Oregon coast between Brook ings and Gold Beach. Don Malarkey, president of the Oregon Coast Association, said Gov. Holmes has been asked to use seven pens in the 2:30 p.m. ceremony. Taipeh. Formosa IP United States officials said today the anti-American riots in Taipeh were '"definitely organized," pos sibly by political forces anxious to make a deal with the Chinese Communists. Communists throughout Asia seized on the riots in an all out effort to discredit American ac tivities in the Far Fast. A threat of new anti-American riots in Manila caused the U.S. Embassy there today to order precautions. The Americans said they be lieved no top government offic ials had any part in the wide spread destruction last Friday but they did blame inaction by the government on the complete ness of the destruction. Code Room Attacked American officials pinned some of their suspicion on the deliberate attack on the embassy code room, an attack which com promised some of the codes used by the embassy. The demonstrators entered the embassy armed with heavy tools and set to work on a heavy iron door guarding the code room. When they failed to make a dent they began digging through the six-inch concrete wall. Ordinary demonstrators in flamed by some momentary an ger probably would have passed on to some easier target, Ameri can officials said. U. S. Ambassador Karl Ran kin said the coderoom destruc tion will mean some "readjust ment" of American codes. He would not elaborate. Internal Political Reasons The American sources said Chinese elements in Taipeh might have had internal politi cal reasons for ordering the at tack which wrecked the interior of the embassy and other Ameri can buildings here. Meanwhile, Foreign Minister George Yeh denied that any 'government agency or political organization" had directed or in stigated last week's anti-American riots. He told a news conference the riots were "not an expression of eeneral anti-American feeling" of the Chinese people and said the government was not consid ering withdrawal of the diplo matic immunity now granted U.S. military personnel here. No Intentional Delay Yeh also denied any "inten tional delay" in sending police men to protect the U.S. Embassy which was wrecked by rioters and said the police force in Tai peh was small and that that all reserves were dispatched to the scene as quickly as possible News dispatches at the time said police took no action when the rioters were destroying the American property. U.S. military activities were returning to normal, and Ameri cans circulated through the streets of Taipeh without ' inci dent. The city was still under a strict curfew and the Chinese army posted armored halftracks at strategic places in the city.
