T. The possibility was announced Friday by Clarence G. Morse, chairman of the Federal Mari- time Board and maritime admin- istrator of the Department of ; Commerce. ' Morse aaid it was likely that 18 cargo ships to be con3truct- ed for American President lines, American Export lines, Moore- ; MacCormack and Lykes Bros., would be built in west coast " shipyard. He said the Todd shipyards at I Los Angeles would probably " build two of the vessels which cost 11 million dollars each. 1 Two similar vessels are slat ' ed for construction by the Na tional Steel Shipbuilding Co., of San Diego, and another two ships, costing 23 million dol- lars, are to be built in the Pu get Sound area, he said.

U" Police Saturday sought a man, resemb ling the kidnaper of missing Maria Ridulph, who locked a little girl in his car trunk and tried to abduct her. Sheriff Fred Goff said the would be abductor lured a 10-year-old girl to his car on a false pretext Friday, then threw her in the trunk and drove away. Then the car was trapped in a traffic snarl in a downtown shopping center, the girl open ed the trunk from the inside and darted away. The incident occurred as the girl was return ing from school. Goff said the general descrip tion the girl furnished matched that of the man who spirited away Maria Ridulph, 7, Syca more, 111., early this month. During the unsuccessful search for Maria Ridulph, authorities learned from neighbors that a car had been prowling the streets of the northern Illinois town for several days before her disappearance Dec. 3. Despite the presence of FBI agents, and the cooperation of police and volunteers, no trace of the curly haired Maria has been discovered.

Dworshak Washington TO Sen. Hen ry Dworshak (R-Idaho), who has tilted frequently with Sen. Rich ard L. Neuberger over water resources development in the Northwest, Saturday took an other swipe at his neighboring colleague. He issued a statement charac terizing the Oregon Senator proposal to "deepfreeze" dam sites above Grand Coulee dam in the upper Columbia river basin as an "example of mulish thinking." Dworshak described the Neu berger proposal as one which would halt all dam building un til the problem of moving fish over high dams is solved. "This is typical of the Ore gon Senator's approach, Dwor shak declared. "All dams in the lower basin are fine, but don't build anything in Idaho." Dworshak said Oregon's jun ior senator "is opposed to a 500 foot dam on the Clearwater be cause it would block fish runs; yet worked like a dervish to push through the senate a bill for a 700-foot dam on the Snake." "The inconsistency of the Oregon senator's allegiances all point to the fact that he is op posed to Federal dams if they are in Idaho and private dams if they are in the Northwest," Dworshak's statement contin ued, "pfalting all dam building which has been a mystery for 10 years would put a stopper on Pacific Northwest industrial de velopments." WITHDRAW SIGNS Washington (IP) A num ber of signs and posters touting dietary products of food and drug stores "to build up resist ance against Asian flu" were withdrawn as a result of a Food and Drug administration investi gation.

MI NUT 3 SPEAKERS Soviet Security To Ease Tension Moscow (IP) Soviet Securi ty Chief Ivan Serov Saturday promised an easing of Russia's internal "state of tension." Serov, writing in the Commu nist arty organ Pravda, said the conditions of political unity now make the internal "state of ten sion" unnecessary as in the first years of the Soviet Union but that external strength and vigi lance still is needed. ' Employment Drops In Many Lines Throughout State Salem (IP) Employment in Oregon dropped 15,400 last month to 471,600 with practic ally all lines sharing in the downtrend, the State Unemploy ment Compensation commission reported Saturday. Seasonal industries employed 10,999 fewer persons and repre sented the major share of the decrease from 485,900 jobs a year ago. Statistics showed 50,200 log ging and sawmill employees last month, comparing with 54,600 last year. Plywood employment, however, gained 600 to 14,700. Food processing with 16,400 jobs also fell short of the 1956 mark and construction at 22,500 was nearly 2,000 under last year's report. Holiday trade gave retail em ployment a lift but the Nov ember report showed only 78, 000 working against 83,100 a year ago. Transportation, util ities and finance also eased off somewhat. Payments to unemployed workers were close to $3,300, 000 for the first three weeks of December, bringing the year's total to an all-time high of 30 million dollars. This will drop the unemployment trust fund to around $41,600,000 by Dec. 31, lowest for this period since 1942. i SHIFT AUTOMATIC PROJECTOR Automatic changer ihows, change and stores slides with simple push-pull.
