American Public
Said Not Supporting
Policy in Red China
Washington -CPU- Sen. Hu
bert H. Humphrey (D. Minn.)
says the American public "is
not supporting the policy of
involvement in hostilities with
Red China over the off-shore
islands."
Humphrey, just back from
an 11-state tour, told a news
conference Monday that re
cent developments make it
hard to tell whether there has
been a change in U. S. policy
but "I think there .is one in
the making." He said he felt
Monrovia Fire
Area Surveyed
For Reseeding
Monrovia, Calif. - (UPD - Ex
perts of the U.S. Forest Serv
ice today began a survey of
the blackened area of the
Monrovia fire to determine
how much of the 12,700 acres
must be seeded to prevent
winter floods.
The multi - million dollar
fire burned thousands of acres
of valuable watershed area
and destroyed eight homes
and dozns of cabins. It was
brought under control Mon
day night, except for a couple
of small patches. It was start
ed last Thursday by two seven-year-old
boys playing with
matches.
Fir Lines Patrolled
A force of 700 men pa
trolled fire lines and fought
flames in the Pine Mountain
area where the blaze raced
past fire lines into a new area.
However, the Forest Serv
ice said the remaining fires
did not pose a threat because
they were moving into areas
burned over last year by the
Morris and Gale fires.
Weather conditions also fa
vored the firefighters in the
mop-up operations of fires
which broke out last week
temperatures which baked
brushlands desert dry.
Seeding Plans Made
Even before the fire was
controlled, plans were being
made to seed over the burned
area with quick-growing grass
to prevent flooding this winter
in the communities strung
along the base of the San Ga
briel foothills.
At Newhall, 60 miles north
of Los Angeles, a 30-year-old
housewife said she accidental
ly started a 250-acre blaze
which fatally burned fire
fighter Leland Dennis, 33, of
Oraibe, Ariz., last Sunday.
Authorities did not issue a
complaint against her. They
said there was no proof the
woman had started the fire,
despite her admission.
any change would be primar
ily a "face-saving" for Secre
tary of State John Foster
Dulles.
Credits Protests
Meanwhile, Sen. Joseph S.
Clark (D.-Pa.) said in a speech
Monday night at Lansdowne,
Pa., that "events of the last
few days justify the hope that
the American people, are win
ning their fight for peace in
the Far East." He credited the
protests of Democrats for add
ing peace.
Humphrey, a member of
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, said Democratic
criticism did not represent
any "softening" of determina
tion to back up the Formosa
Defense Treaty with Nation
alist China. But he said
"there is nothing requiring us
to slavishly adhere to mis
guided policies just out of
patriotism."
Attack Denounced
Humphrey denounced as
"Intemperate and uncalled
for" President Eisenhower's
recent attack on critics of his
Quemoy-Formosa policy.
He referred to the Presi
dent's reply to a letter from
Chairman Theodore F. Green
(D-R.I.) of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee. Green
voiced doubts the American
people would support U.S.
military action to defend
Quemoy.
Eisenhower replied Satur
day that Democratic attacks
on the Administration's Far
East policy were hurting free
world unity and might make
war "almost inevitable."
Multnomah Sheriff
Raps Jury Report
Portland-(UPD-Sheriff Fran
cis Lambert took issue today
with a grand jury report
which criticized the Rocky
Butte jail as too plush.
Lambert said last Friday's
report was the first by a
eranr? inr-u- whirh rallp1 iht
during scorching 100-degreejaii too elaborate. He said "I
am sure that the members of
other grand juries must have
smiled when they read this
report."
The. jail in the county
courthouse was praised as a
place of detention by the
grand jury. Lambert said this
jail was used only for hold
over purposes and had been
'condemned by every inspec
tor of federal prisons."
Steelworker Head
Raps Labor Curbs
Portland-(DPD-David J. Mc
Donald, president of the AFL-
CIO United Steelworkers of
America, told the Catholic
Conference on Industrial and
Social Relations here Monday
night that "there are more
laws in our country limiting
the rights of labor than in
any other nation in the free
world."
McDonald, speaking on the
topic "Legal and Moral Lim
itations on Work Stoppages,"
lashed out against "right to
work laws, the use of injunc
tions and the use of state,
local and "even federal police
in strike breaking . . ." He
said "governmental attitudes
and hostile corporate groups
were prejudiced against all
labor.
The leader of the 1,250,000
member metal workers union
said management was just
as responsible for work
stoppages as labor.
Candidate Offers
To Donate Salary
Portland - (UPD John John
ston, Republican candidate for
Congress, offered Monday to
donate one half of his annual
income and expense allow
ance to bona fide Multnomah
county charities if he is elect
ed to Congress.'
Johnston opposes Rep.
Edith Green (D-Ore.) Un the
third district.
"As a Navy officer in Wash
ington, D.C., I had a chance
to learn a lot about the duties
of congressmen," he said.
know I can be as effective
representing my district
with the income of $12,500
as I could with an income of
$25,000." He challenged Mrs.
Green to match the offer.

way Commission Monday

ing approximately $600,000

Hatfield Favors
Capital Gains Tax
Sandy, Ore. -(UPD- Secretary
of State Mark Hatfield, Re
publican candidate for gover
nor, said Monday night Ore
gon's economic development
can be helped by a capital
gains provision in the state
tax structure.
Hatfield also suggested re
vision of the "discriminatory'
inventory tax and a state pro
vision for small business losses
copied from the federal tax
structure.
Hatfield said he was not
suggesting special tax conces
sions to industry. "It is purely
and simply that we must be
competitive with our sister
states if we are to hold and
attract industry," he said.
He said Oregon timber, ag
riculture and tourist activities
all are seasonal. He said 12
month type payrolls, such as
mining, should be developed,
