Colorado Springs, Colo.
W) Western governors met
today to hammer out resolu
tions asking support for solv
ing problems in their states,
and to discuss a possible ar
rangement for several states
to share facilities of a wom
an's prison.
The idea of one prison to
serve several states of like
population has been backed
by Govs.' Milward Simpson of
Wyoming and George E.
Clyde of Utah.
Several topics not on the
formal conference agenda
will be discussed.
Concludes with Luncheon
Trie governors of 10 west
ern states and Hawaii con
clude the three-day annual
conference today with a
luncheon. The 11th state, Cal
ifornia, is represented by Lt.
Gov. Harold Powers.
Gov. Steve McNichols of
Colorado, the host, planned
to depart for Denver earlier
to receive another group of
governors. They will plan the
agenda for the National Gov
ernors conference at Miami,
Fla., in May.
Two of the governors par
ticipating in the Denver meet
ing arrived here Tuesday
night for the Western group's
banquet.
They are Edmund S. Mus
kie of Maine and John . E.
Davis of North Dakota. Mus
kie quipped "Maine joined
the union three years ago"
when he became the state's
first Democratic governor in
a generation.
Harold Pyle of Phoenix.
Ariz., an administrative as
sistant to President Eisenhow
er, told the dinner "it would
be a good thing for every
governor to serve in national
government'' to see both
points of view.
He said the administration
believes state government
"should recover every degree
of sovereignty."
This contrasted sharply to
the tenor of the Western gov
ernors in recent days. The
federal government has been
charged by the governors
with iron-fisted control over
the uranium industry, neglect
of other types of western
mining, usurpation of state
water rights and eveu an at
tempt to do away with the
National Guard.
Gov. Simpson said Tuesday
that federal control over the
states is so complete "we're
virtually crown colonies."
Gov. William Quinn of Ha
waii presented McNichols, the
dinner master of ceremonies,
with a poi pounder "instead
of a gavel."
Quinn explained it is used
to pound a tuber plant, the
poi, into edible form.
Quotes From the News
By UNITED PRESS
Washington President Eisenhower, denouncing the at
tack launched by critics of his foreign aid program:
"It is based on slogans, prejudices, pennywise economy
and above all, an outright refusal to look at the world of
1958 as it really is. What the ostrich-like opponents of mu
tual, security seem to be saying is: 'Billions for arm-"nt,
but not one cent for peace!' "
Calcutta, India Gerald Russel. leader of an American
expedition that hopes to capture a Yeti, or abominable snow
man, discussing the prospects of bringing his quarry out
alie:
"I am. quite definite that the Yeti will not survive more
than a wek out of the Himalayas for acclimatization reasons.
And I'd hate the idea of killing a Yeti."
New York Comedian Bob Hope, discussing what may
happen to him is Russia grants him permission to visit the
Soviet Union next week:
"I'll probably wind up with the Travelers Aid. If I'm
not back in three weeks, call the Red Cross. I'm liable' to
wind up in a Siberian stock company. That's going to be
pretty miserable because I'm on a salt-free diet."

President Eisenhower's giant
bipartisan rally in support of
foreign aid.

Foreign aid supporters
were given another jolt by
the State Department's dis
closure Tuesday night that
France used U.S.-made Cor

Program in the bombing raid

Mansfield: Too Much
Senate Assistant Democra
tic Leader Mike Mansfield
said the administration's call
for spending nearly $4 billion
on economic and military
assistance is "entirely too
much."
"It can be cut substantially
at least 25 per cent," the
Montana Democrat said.
Other key Democrats said
bluntly Eisenhower was ig
noring political realities posed
in asking Congress to commit
the United States to vast ex
penditures abroad while the
domestic economy is sagging
and individual industries are
being hurt by foreign trade
and tariff policies.
The President climaxed a
day-long talkathon Tuesday
on selling his foreign aid plan
to Americans by denouncing
its opponents as "ostrich-like."
He said the Mutual Security
Program was just as "urgent"
as mobilizing the ballistic mis
siles effort to keep peace in
the world and resist Commu
nist aggression.
Eisenhower declared the aid
program "has been proving
its worth in practice for over
10 years." Yet he said it is
engaged every year in a "life-and-death
struggle for its very
existence" vith persons in and
out of Congress damning it
as a "give-away."
Others Speak
The President's talk fol
lowed others by former Pres
ident Truman, Adlai E. Stev
enson and other Democratic
and Republican speakers tj
the rostrum before about
1,300 leaders from across the
nation.
Truman said Democrats in
Congress will "never, never
be able to explain it" if they
"emasculate" the Republican
administration's aid bill car
rying on a program started by
Democrats. He also threw an
other political jab at the Re
publicans. Noting claims that the aid
program is being administer
ed badly, he said "It looks as
if a lot of things are now
being administered badly, but
you can't abolish the govern
ment on that account."

an "On to Oregon Cavalcade,"
a real-life recreation of the
original Oregon Trail cross
ing, are under way for this
summer.
The "cavalcade" has been
sanctioned by the Oregon Cen
tennial Commission with the
primary objective of publiciz
ing the 1959 Oregon Centen
nial. The wagon train idea was
originated by the Junior
Chamber of Commerce here.
25 Wagons Planned
Plans call for the Cavalcade
to leave Independence, Mo.,
on June 2; 1958, with 25 horse
drawn covered wagons. They
would follow the Old Oregon
Trail, arriving in Portland on
Labor Day, and ending the
trek in Champoeg, with a cele
bration and reenactment of
the founding of the, Oregon
provisional government.
In the 1840s, 50s and 60s,
pioneers who crossed the
plains had to live off the land.
Since this is not practical for
modern wagon train members,
a motorized caravan is
planned to follow the wagons
with supplies. Extra horses
also are planned to nable
others to rest and to make
the trip in 100 days, 50 days
shorter than the original immigrants.

Oregon Weather
Back To Normal
By UNITED PRESS
Oregon's weather picture
was back to normal today .
and Monday night's big wind '
appeared to have blown away j
the exceptionally warm air1
that has brought springlike
weather more than a month
ahead of schedule. ;
The freezing level dropped !
to below 3000 feet and lows
of 22-32 in eastern Oregon
and 32-42 in western Oregon
were predicted for tonight.
i Possible snow flurries were
forecast today in eastern Ore
gon. The five-day outlook called
for normal or near normal
temperatures with "moderate
to heavy" precipitation.

pleted restoring service

in numerous other damage
and one death.
Airline Fare
Hike Approved
Washington (IP) The Civil
Aeronautics Board said Tues
day it approved an $85 mil
lion yearly fare increase for
U.S. airlines because of
"speedy deterioration" in
their earnings last fall. .
The statement came in the
CAB's formal ruling on the
increase. The commission an
nounced Jan. 24 it had decid
ed to permit all airlines fare
increases averaging 6.6 per
cent, effective Feb. 10.
The increase, actually a
boost of 4 per cent plus a flat
increase of SI on every ticket,
was approved pending con
clusion of the CAB's long gen
eral passenger fare investiga
tion now in the hearing stage.
In the decision the CAB
said: "On balance we believe
the interim fare increase . . .
will meet with the needs of
the carriers and is fair to the
traveling public."

Buffalo Burgers Planned
The Cavalcade plans to ad
here to authenticity as much
as possible, including wagon
train equipment and clothing.
Lacking of course, will be
the fear of attack by Indians.
Cost to each Oregon city
taking part in the Cavalcade
will be $16.50. This amount
will bear only about half the
entire cost of wagon, horse
transportation, supplies, etc.
Revenue from contracts to
carry philatelic mail, photo
graphs, souvenirs and color
slides also will support the
trip.
The group also is tentative
ly planning to sell real Buf

Navajo Power
Unit May Yet
Undergo Tests
Cape Canaveral, Fla. (IP)
The Air Force Navajo which
plunged3 into the ocean and
exploded Tuesday after a
booster engine failure may
not be the lost of the super
sonic long-range guided mis
siles to fly.
"We're doing all we can to
get the government to con
tinue the Navajo program,"
an official of North American
Aviation, which builds the
missile, said Tuesday night.
Although the missile itself is
obsolete, the power unit
which failed is considered to
have potential value for other
missiles.
The contract for the Navajo
program, on which a half-bil-
llion dollars has already been
spent; was cancelled by the
Air Force last July and Tues
day's missile was the last of
those on hand at the test
center.
Cause Not Found
The Navajo spokesman said
technicians had not found just
what caused the booster mal
function which sent the sleek
missile plunging from the sky
after only 20 seconds of
flight. It exploded spectacu
larly in the ocean. But he said
it would not long deter per
fection of a half-million
pound thrust engine.
Th delta-winged Navajo is
a non-ballistic missile pow
ered in flight by two ram-jet
engines. The liquid fuel boost
er engine flings it into the
sky and gives it enough velo
city 'for the jets to take over.
The engine has a potential use
with ballistic missiles.
Joint Chiefs Request
Servicemen's Pay Hike
Washington HP The Joint
Chiefs of Staff pleaded today
with Congress to stop the
march of talented men into
lucrative civilian jobs by in
creasing the pay of servicemen.
"Just because we have our
own beliefs, that should not
be any excuse for Sukarno
and his henchmen to accuse
us of being agents for some
one else," he said.
"I will not deny our policy
is anti-Communist . . . the na
tion must be liberated from
Communist domination," he
said.
Troops of the Central Su
matra regime were reported
preparing against any pos
sible invasion by government
forces. Reports reaching Pa
dang Tuesday said the central
government was loading
troops aboard transports in
Jakarta for what could be an
attack on rebel-held territory.
