Termination OK'd
Washington (IP) The
Senate Interior Affairs Com
mittee today unanimously ap
proved for passage the Klam
ath reservation termination
bill introduced by Sen. Rich
ard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.).
The bill includes an amend
ment offered by Neuberger,
with approval of the adminis
tration, to write a $90 million
ceiling into purchase funds
authorized by legislation.
Neuberger said following
the committee meeting that
"unanimous passage of this
bill for purchase of Klamath
tribal resources by either pri
vate industry or the U.S. gov
ernment is a triumph for ef
fective bipartisan action."
Neuberger said bipartisan
action has been 'absolutely
essential" in the best interests
of the Klamath Indians and
the entire regional economy
of the Pacific Northwest.
The measure would offer
tribal assets first to private
industry with the government
buying the remainder.

Centennial Commission's Hardest Job
Is To Sell Residents on Celebration
The hardest job of the Ore
gon Centennial commission is
to sell the residents of Oregon
on their own state, according
to Chairman Anthony Bran
denthaler, Baker, who spoke
to the Roundtable group of
the Jackson County Chamber
of Commerce Monday noon.
He said the job of selling
the centennial to other na
tions and residents of other
states was not as hard as the
selling job required by Oregon
residents. He said the event is
planned to be "state-wide,"
although the major attrac
tion, an exposition and trade
fair, will be held in Portland.
Too Large
He said the Stanford Re
search Institute made a sur
vey of the state and said a
"world's fair" would be too
large to be commercially pos
sible, and a commemorative
series of events would not pro
duce the lasting economic
boost to Oregon which a trade
and exposition fair would.
Brandenthaler said about
eight to nine million people
can be expected to attend the
100-day fair in Portland. He
added this means other sec
tions of the state could expect
Sloan, Astoria, received 1,083
votes; Boyd R. Overhulse, Ma
dras, 329; and Samuel M.
Bowe, Grants Pass, got 290
votes.
Lawyers living in the judic
ial district of candidates for
whom their preference was
expressed were elgible, and in
district court contests, only
lawyers living in the county
of the candidate were eligible.
A total of 2,200 ballots
were mailed, and there were
1,764 valid ballots.
ille Heisel
Withdraws from
Judgeship Race
Manville M. Heisel, Med
ford attorney and candidate
for Jackson county circuit
judge, today confirmed re
ports that he is withdrawing
his candidacy.
Since he filed for the non
partisan position a number
of business matters have come
up which make it necessary
that he leave the political
campaign, Heisel explained.
His withdrawal leaves Rob
ert Dames, Medford attorney,
and District Court Judge
James Main as contenders for
position No. 1 of the first judi
cial district.
Heisel stated emphatically
that he is not throwing his
support to either of the other
two candidates.
Heisel's name still will ap
pear on the ballot, since it
is too late for him to with
draw "officially," but if he
were by chance nominated,
despite his withdrawal, he
could refuse the nomination.
GM To Terminate
UAW Pad May 29 ,
Detroit (IPI General Mo

Auto Workers it wishes to ter
minate its present ' contract
May 29 when the contract ex
pires. The nation's biggest auto

General Motors and Ford

the present contracts for
another two years.
Just before the companies

Third Stage of
Navy's Rocket
Fails To Ignite
Another Launching
Soon Being Planned
Washington (IP) The
Navy today blamed a faulty
wire for the failure of its
Vanguard satellite to go
into orbit Monday night af
ter reaching a 300-mile al
titude. Cape Canaveral, Fla. (IP!
The Navy flung its Vanguard
into space Monday night, but
the rocket's third stage failed
to ignite and crashed back
into the ocean still clasping
the hoped-for third U. S.
satellite.
The Navy is now pushing
plans for launching another
Vanguard in less than a month
carrying a similar 20-inch arti
ficial moon.
"We will go right at it,"
said John P. Hagen, Vanguard
Project director for the Naval
Research Laboratory in Wash
ington. He admitted, however,
that the unsuccessful flight
"was a great disappointment."
All Started Well
Spokesmen said prelimi
nary data received during the
Vanguard's flight indicated all
went well for about 10 min
utes until the crucial instant
some 300 miles above ground
when the solid fuel third stage
was scheduled to ignite and
kick free of the second stage.
What went amiss would not
be known until data received
here and at the Air Force's
downrange tracking stations
was sorted through by tech
nicians of the Naval Research
Lab and the Martin company,
prime contractor for the Van
guard. Plunged Into Sea
.The third stage evidently
never separated from .ihe-sec-ond
stage and plunged like a
ballistic missile into the At
lantic some 1,500 miles south
east of the launching ' site,
dooming the "chirping" sound
of the satellite's radio voice
to the silence of the sea. .
The second stage was sched
uled to land about where it
did, but not with the third
stage still attached.
The Defense Department
said there was no chance of
recovering the rocket's re
mains. Gold Hill Youth
Places in Contest
David Mack, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Gilbert Mack, Gold Hill,
and a senior at Crater High
school. Central Point, placed
second in the Future Farmers
of America regional public
speaking contest in Helena,
Mont., last night, according to
word received here.
Mack represented Oregon at
the contest, which included
contestants from 11 western
states.
He is president of the Cra
ter chapter of FFA, and was
accompanied to Helena by
George Gillman, treasurer of
the Crater chapter.
Commissioner Thomas
Vaughan of Portland is in
charge of historical, research,
design, decorations and na
tionality groups. He urged
members of the Roundtable to
write out-of-state friends and
tell them about the activities
planned for the centennial
year.
Floyd Maxwell, managing
director of the Portland fair,
said the event would be the
first of its kind" west of Chi
cago. He said the fair would
cover 65 acres with addition
al land to be rented for park
ing. Reserve Space
Twenty-two counties have
reserved space for the trade
fair, he said. He expected
several additional counties to
take part. A display of atoms-for-peace
also will be at the
fair, this being some of the
equipment now on display at
the Brussels World fair.
Other things planned for
the Fair are a complete lum

Arctic Inspection
Said Safeguard
Against Invasion
Gromyko Renews
Demand on Flights
United Nations, N. Y. (IP)
The United States called
upon the Soviet Union today
to remove fear of massive sur
prise attack by agreeing to a
zone of inspection in the Arc
tic. But both in Moscow and on
the floor of the Security
Council, Russia renewed its
demands that the U. S. halt
its H-bomb alert missions. In
Moscow, Soviet Foreign Min
ister Andrei Gromyko said
either the U. S. must halt
such flights or bear "grave
responsibilities . . . for pos
sible consequences."
Said Diversionary Move
Russia charged that the U.
S. proposal was a diversion
ary move to detract attention
from H-bomber flights while
seeking to spy on Soviet ter
ritory. A Soviet resolution, placed
before a UN council meeting
which is overwhelmingly in .
favor of the U. S. plan, de
manded that the questions of
safeguard be placed before a
summit ' meeting.
U. S. Bomber Flights
U. S. Ambassador Henry
Cabot Lodge, introducing a
resolution calling for a north
ern inspection zone, told the
Security Council its session
"could mark the turn in the
road for which humanity has
been looking."
The Soviet charge and the
American safeguard proposal
arose chiefly from a dispatch
by United Press President
Frank E. Bartholomew de
scribing alert missions of U.
S. Strategic Air Command
bombers and the "fail safe"
system which prevented the
bombers from proceeding on
false missions.
In Moscow, Gromyko said
it would be "quite natural"
under present circumstances
for the Soviet Union to send
its own H-bombers flying to
ward the U. S.
The U. S. proposal would
place under international in
spection Alaska, the Aleu
tians, Russia's Kamchatka
Peninsula and the Kurile Is
lands, and all territory from
the Arctic Circle to the North
Pole.
Referring to Gromyko's
statement of last week, which
referred directly to the Bar
tholomew dispatch Lodge told
the council:
Question of Geography
"If Mr. Gromyko's state
ment represents a sincere
concern no matter how
groundless! surely the Sov
iet Union will agree that the
establishment of an accept
able system of inspection
would be desirable."
"Geography makes ' it ap
parent that inspection in the
Arctic area can be at least
the first line of approach to
the problem of surprise at
tack. We are loath to believe
that the" Soviet government
wants to deny its people the
kind of safeguards which
would make surprise attack
virtually impossible."
Porter Says Nuclear
Tests To Start Friday
Washington (IP) Rep.
Charles O. Porter (D-Ore.)
says the spring-summer series

gin Friday at the Eniwetok
Proving Grounds.
The Atomic Energy Com
mission has refused to reveal
when the first shot will be
fired.
Porter left today for the
mid-Pacific test center.
The campaign will be dis
cussed and reviewed.
One of the features of the
10-day event will be a parade,
a "confidence caravan," start
ing at 11:20 a.m. tomorrow
on Biddle rd. The parade will
proceed into Medford on
Court st.. Central ave., turn
onto Sixth st. to West Main
st., east on Main to Central
ave., south to Riverside ave.
and north to the Big Y junc

At the junction, one section

and Eagle Point by the old
highway, and return to Med
ford and disband. Another sec
tion will continue to Beall
lane and on to Jacksonville.
It will continue to Phoenix
and return to Medford and

The parade is planned to
bring attention to values of
fered by new car dealers in
connection with the campaign.
