Wayne Morse (D - Ore.) criticized President Eisenhower's dis patch of marines to Lebanon Tuesday, But Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore) gave the President his support. Speaking in the Senate, Morse said Eisenhower "has made a sorry and historic mistake this morning. That flag should come out and those American boys should come out; United Nations forces should go in to keep the peace under the tJnited Nations doctrine, not under the Eisenhower doctrine. 'Grave Mistake Morse said it is a "grave mistake" for the U. S. "to undertake unilaterally, o r even in conjunction with Great Britain to interfere with oevery development in the world that appears to run counter to some interest of ours. We cannot direct our own liking bv frfr of arms all the furces of growth and change that are now on the . loose in the Middle East, ' South America or anywhere else.'

Porter (D-Ore.) said he had "grave doubts about the propriety or the necessity of the president's action." "We should have taken the matter up with the UN first and worked with the UN if there was a threat to the peace," Porter said. He added that he thought the administration's policy in the Middle East had done nothing to prevent the current crisis. "We have held to the status quo," he said. "We have not had an constructive policy."

By EUGNE BURNS Ranger-Naturalist Amman We were sitting in the shade of a rock watch ing some ants five or six feet away. There were only a few of them in the clean-swept, saucer-like depression, surround ed by a carefully molded ring of sand, and even they seemed to feel the heat as they slowly approached the hole marking the entrance of their under ground home. As I wondered what they found to live on in the desert, an Englishman next to me tossed down a few seeds he had stripped from a nearby bush. Almost immediately an Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Grieve spent the week end of July 12 at Odell lake fishing. Mr. and Mrs. A.

Holmes today protested what he called "emasculating amendments" to the Klamath Indian timberland bill passed unanimously by the U. S. Sen ate in May. In a strongly worded tele gram to House Speaker Sam Rayburn and Congressman Clair Engle. chairman of the House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, Gov Holmes asked that the House sub-committee return the bill to its original form. The governor said proposed amendments would result in great resource being dis posed of on a "fire-sale" basis ant 'appeared and examined the seeds. Seconds later more ants swarmed out of the hole, grabbed . the seeds and car ried them underground. In three or four minutes the saucer was bare again. The ants were . such notor ious grain hoarders, my com panion said, that the Talmud had laid down rules on how ant grain hoards should be divided by men. If any ant granary was found in a corn field it belonged to the owner of the land. But if the dis covery was made after the reapers had passed, then the owner got only the lower part of the heap. The upper part had to be given to the poor. What the ants do with the grain is to store it in special chambers until it is complete ly dry. That done, theyj cut the grains up, converting the stuff into a kind of paste by the addition of saliva. That, in turn, is dried until it be comes a dark, crumbly bread of pinhead size or a little larger. , Ant Calls for Help As we sat there, I inadver tently disturbed part of the sand ring with my foot. Sec onds later an ant appeared, appraised the situation and called for help. A stream of workers joined him and set about the task of restoration. Many of, them seemed to back into the job, digging rap idly with their front legs and throwing the sand- behind, puppy-fashion. Others lowered their spade-shaped heads into the sand and walked back wards, pulling the grains with them toward the rim from which" they had been removed. Yet other ants, apparently confronted with larger grains, scooped them up in their man dibles and dumped them in the breach. In less than a quarter of an hour the job was finished and the ants were gone.
