Soviet planners are finding it a Herculean task to decentralize the Soviet economy. They have, in fact, modified their original design in such a way that it may be difficult to achieve the pri mary goal of the reform ap proved by the Supreme Soviet in May. Bigger Production Sought The goal was to raise Soviet production by reducing the army of office workers and cutting red tape in Soviet industry. It ; now oppears that the bureauc racy will still be large. ' The reorganization program calls for establishment of "sov narkhoz" or economic coun cils throughout the country , to replace 25 central industrial and construction ministries, ; now abolished. The sovnarkhoz will super vise the most important of the j Soviet's 200,000 plants and fac- j tories. ' The planners apparently ANNOUNCING! A New Service for Valley Home Owners C. J.

Her selection to represent Oregon caused the first dispute of the con test whep another contest ant from the Beaver State claimed a fouL thought in terms of 40 to 50 councils. Now the total stands at 105 double the initial esti mate and four times as many councils as there were indus trial and construction ministries. More Employees Needed Most of these councils will have 2,000 to 3,000 or more staff members. The upper eche lons will be staffed largely with former top officials of the abol ished ministries. Each economic council will draw up production and supply plans for its factories, trying to utilize the manufactured goods and' resources within its own area, instead of shopping for its needs far afield. It is too early to detect effects of the reorganization on Soviet industrial output. They should begin to' show at the end of tie year. Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS Washington Sen. Robert S.

Anna, un der contract to MGM, fin ally is getting into top gear in her career in Columbia's Cowboy" after a long illness. But although her films during her one and a half years here have been few, she achieved local fame as the girl most like ly to permanently snare the heart of Hollywood's No. 1 bachelor. Brando, now in Europe work ing in "The Young Lions," also dates Rita Moreno and other assorted beauties, but one close friend insists he is more serious about Anna and "he's talked of marrying her." Native of India The black-haired Miss Kashfi, born in Darjeeling, India, re fuses to discuss Brando. But she does confess she is not one of those starlets who concentrates By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent night and day on a full-time career. In fact, she became an actress by accident. She was visiting London with her engineer fath er when a Paramount executive she once had met asked her to portray an Indian girl in Spen cer Tracy's "The Mountain," then being filmed in Europe. "I accepted the role because the film had to be finished in Hollywood and I'd get a trip to America," she said in her soft, hesitant voice. Offered Contract After that film, the sloe-eyed actress was packing her bags to return to India when she was offered an MGM contract. She portrayed a Korean girl in "Battle Hymn." MGM set her for two more pictures but a virus sent her to bed for six months. Now recovered, she's a star in her third picture, "Cow boy," with Glenn Ford and Jack Lemmon. This time she plays a Mexican. "I'm taken for many nation alities, depending on the country I'm in," she laughed. "People have thought I was French, Italian, Burmese. I fit into the surroundings something like a chameleon." Like Brando, Anna prefers a quiet life away from nightclubs, big parties and the limelight.
