Meeting Pleasant,
Gromyko Declares
Washington -IIIP&- President
Eisenhower personally appeal
ed to the Big Four foreign
ministers today for progress
at the deadlocked Geneva Con
ference in order to justify a
summer meeting.
The President conferred in
his office for about a half hour
with the foreign ministers and
Russia's Andrei Gromyko said
afterwards that ij was a "pleas
ant and useful conversation."
The White House said in a
statement that the President
had "expressed the hope that
on their return to Geneva the
foreign ministers would be
able to achieve that measure
of progress which would make
a subsequent meeting of the
heads of government desirable
. and useful."
Peaceful Solutions
The President said that he
had followed the Geneva
Conference proceedings with
close attention," the White
House said.
"He expressed the hope that
the thorough exchange of
views that are taking place
there would lead to a better
anm-oach to the solution of
the problem that confront ui
in Europe."
The Big Four foreign min
isters had broken off their
Geneva talks to attend the fu
neral of John Foster Dulles.
Meeting with the President
were Gromyko, Secretary of
State Christian A. Herter,
British Foreign Minister Sel
wyn Lloyd, and French For
eign Minister Maurice Couve
de Murville.
All appeared to be in a
Jovial mood when they
emerged. - - - - -
Several hours before the
White House meeting, Herter
briefed congressional foreign
affairs experts on the Geneva
talks. The secretary was quot
ed as saying further negotia
would be a "long, drawn-out
process, requiring a great deal
of patience" on the part of
the West.
Blind Dog Finds Home
After Radio Appeal
"Dusty" found a new
owner today a woman
who promises to care for
the nearly-blind golden re
triever. .
The 2-year-old dog, de
scribed by Joe Taylor of
the county dog pound as
well-mannered, well-trained
and pedigreed, was brought
to the pound by his former
owners to be destroyed, for
they could not care for him
properly.
This was mentioned brief
ly on a 3-minute news
broadcast over KYJC at
12:15 p.m. today, and with
in 20 minutes, four people
had called. The first woman ,
to call drove to the pound
immediately, "fell in love"
with "Dusty," and took him
home, to be cared for in
her fenced-in yard.
"Dogs have guided blind
people - for years," Taylor
commented. "Now we have
people who will guide a
blind dog."

'Slot' Ownership
Richard Grant Phair, 424
Ardmore ave., secretary-manager
of the Medford Elks

trict court Wednesday after
noon on a charge of posses
sion of a slot machine.
His case was continued
until 10:03 a.m. Friday by
Judge Roy Bashaw for enter
inga plea. Phair was released
on $100 bail. He was rep
resented by Attorney Man
ville H;isel.
A warrant for his arrest
was issued yesterday follow
ing raids Tuesday afternoon
by city and state police which
resulted in the confiscation
of 39 slot machines.
Seised at Barn
According to state police,
23 of the illegal machines
were seized in a barn at route
3, box 61. It is one of these
machines which Phair is ac
cused of owning.
District Attorney Thomas
J. Reeder reported at noon
today that a warrant will be
served this afternoon against
the Valley Music company on
a similar charge.
Thirteen of the machines
seized Tuesday were taken by
city police from a shed in
back of 519 Crater Lake ave.,

Reeder explained that the
delay in issuing the second
complaint was to ascertain
their apparent ownership.
Parts from Machines
Tags found on slot machine

Albany Group
Files Petition
With Appling
Petition Seeks
Vote by People
Salem - (DPD - A petition to
refer Oregon's new income
tax law to the voters in the
November 1960 general elec
tion was filed with Secretary
of State Howell Appling
Wednesday.
The filing was done by a
group from Albany who call
ed themselves the Citizens
Committee for Economy and
Equitable Taxation.
The measure which the
petition would put up for
consideration by the voters
was signed into law earlier
this week by Gov. Mark Hat
field. The new income tax law
(HB 670) was designed to in
crease state revenues by some
$10 million in the next two
years.
Albany Men in Group
The bill which makes what
looks like a downward adjust
ment in Oregon rates, also
eliminates the federal income
tax payments as an offset on
paying state personal income
taxes. This results in a tax
hike, particularly in the
middle and high income tax
brackets.
i The citizen's group is head
ed by three Albany men: Wil
liam F. Gwin, a salesman for
Bub Plywood Company, pres
ident; Duane Roisen, a petro
leum distributor, secretary;
and Charles F. Hull, a truck
distributor as treasurer.
The group has until Aug. 4
to collect some 21,007 valid
signatures to refer the income
tax law.
Say Have Backing
All three men said they had
between 50 and 60 persons
from "air over the state back
ing them.
In presenting the prelimi
nary petition, a spokesman
for the committee attacked
what he called "a lack of re
sponsibility" by the Legisla
ture in facing the tax issue
squarely.
The Albany men had no
comment on whether they
would rather have a sales tax
or not.
. The group feels Oregon
voters should have their
chance to voice an opinion on
what they call the Legisla
ture's "patchwork" taxation
measure. They called it a
"stopgap move at the most."

Request For Study
Of Creek Pollution
Considered by Court
Request for appointment of
a fact-finding committee to
study pollution of Bear creek
was taken under advisement
by the Jackson County court
Wednesday.
. County Judge , Earl Miller
announced the plan after
meeting with a five-man com
mittee to discuss the county's
role in supporting Bear creek
pollution abatement.
Meeting with the court as
representatives of the Jack
son County Water Pollution
Abatement committee were
Russell DeForest, Medford
attorney, president of the
Oregon Sportsmen of Jackson
county and spokesman for
the group; Col. Paul H. Wei
land, Medford,. chairman of
the pollution committee of the
Jackson county "chapter of the
Izaak Walton league;. Donald
Faber, former mayor of Cen
tral Point; and Mark Norton,
Phoenix.
Committee Hopeful
DeForest said the pollution
abatement committee hopes
the court will name an exec
utive committee to head
study pinpointing pollution
spots and encouraging public
education and enforcement of
state laws.
DeForest named three ef
fects of Bear creek pollution:
Danger to health, loss of es
thetic value, and loss of fish
and wildlife. He quoted Dr
A. Erin .Merkel, county health
officer, as saying "Bear creek
is not a health hazard because
the people have been instruct
ed not to go near it."
The attorney declared that
citizens have "no respect for
the stream," and throw all
manner of refuse into its
waters.
The two main problems to
be dealt with, he said, are
"polution, itself," and -an in
creased stream flow.
Big Problem
DeForrest said they could
foresee several committees
working on the problem,
which "is too big for any one
Three Men Appear

probation. All had pleaded
guilty..
Gilbert Wayne Cooper, 22,

include education of the pub
lic on pollution problems,
with the hope of voluntary
cooperation; survey of actual
pollution points; action to en

tion of stream flow, cost and
sources; cleaning of the

recreation facilities.
Some of the present viola
tions of state law are so ob
vious and of such long stand
ing that voluntary coopera
tion cannot be expected, he
declared.
Col. Welland told the
court that more emphasis is
needed on the potentials of
Bear creek. He expressed
hope for a 4,000-acre-foot res
ervoir which might be built
with federal aid and would
insure Bear creek flow.
The representatives ' said
they only sought the county's

Southern Pacific Denies
Losses Being
San Francisco-(UPD-Southern
Pacific denied at an Inter
state Commerce Commission
hearing Wednesday that it has
overstated its losses because
of "unreasonable" costs at
tributed to locomotive and car
maintenance.
The railroad's research chief,
Paul V. Garin, testified that
use of a low quality fuel in
creased locomotive repair ex
penses, but actually saved SP
$14,000,000 since 1954.
Hearing Requested
Our overall savings from
the use of economy fuels have

one over the estimated increas

said.
The SP requested the hear

Jupiter Missile
Carries Simians
Into Atlantic
Valuable Data
Said Obtained
Cape Canaveral - (DPD
Two little monkeys flew 300
miles into space today in the
nose cone of a Jupiter missile
and were recovered alive.
The flight of the two pint
sized simians, Able and Baker,
gave science important new
data needed to insure the
safe space flight of man.
Brig. Gen. John H. Mc-
Ninch, chief of the Army's
Medical Research and De
velopment Command, said six
and one-half hours after the
Jupiter firing that the mon
keys were retrieved "alive
and in perfect condition."
McNinch said there would
be no further information on
the effects of the journey on
the monkeys ."at this time."
The monkeys, first to be re
covered alive from a space
flight, spent about 15 minutes
on their flight which got to
a height of about 300 miles.
Their nose cone space ship
plopped down in the Atlantic
1,500 miles to the southeast
near Antigua.
Will Be Displayed
Able and Baker are sched
uled to be taken to Washing
ton and displayed Saturday.
Monkey Able, the more
educated of the pair of space
travelers, was to have sent a
type of telegraph signal back
to earth during the flight by
pressing a key attached to her
body. No signals were picked
up, which may have been
caused by a malfunction of
the instrument or because
Able refused to perform as
trained.
Able, an American Rhesus
weighing seven pounds, and
Baker, a one-pound squirrel
monkey, spent about 15 min
utes on the flight and traveled
about 300 miles into space,
not high enough, according
to: the scientists here, to
seriously affect the monkeys
from radiation.' -
Barclay said the nose cone
was recovered intact and was
on board ship in less than two
hours after the launching.
The two monkeys were
housed in separate containers.
Able was in a 250 pound cap
sule and Baker in a smaller
one that was 9.5 by 12.5 by
6.5 inches.
Able, lying on her back
with her knees drawn up to
provide maximum resistance
from the forces of gravity,
wore a special space suit and
was equipped with earphones.
She reclined on a fiber glass
contour couch in an air con
ditioned chamber with a pri
vate heating and cooling sys
tem. Baker was attired in a hel
met of molded plastic with a
soft chamois lining. She lay
on a molded bed made of two
layers of rubber.
Little Behavior Change
Navy Capt. Ashton Grabiel,
director of research at the
Navy School of Medicine,
Pensacola, Fla., said "it would
appear as though there was
remarkably little change in
the monkeys' behavior during
the first 14 minutes of flight."
This period took the nose
cone almost to the point of
re-entry into the earth's at
mosphere.
The National Aeronautics
and Space Administration
said it was the first time ani
mals had been recovered aft
er a lengthy rocket voyage
through space.

railroad has been inefficient
and extravagant in maintain
ing its diesel fleets.
Garin said PUC engineers
had erred in not giving prop
er consideration to the differ
ence in fuel practices when
it compared SP's maintenance
costs with those of other rail
roads. He said SP has more
high horse-power locomotives
than any other railroad in the
