Attorney General Asked To Rule on Audit Findings Salem -4VPD- Secretary of State Howell Appling said to day he has reason to believe the Oregon adjutant general may have been overpaid for many years. Appling said his audits divi sion has been looking into the matter and an opinion has been requested of the attorney general "as to the validity of our findings. Brig. Oen. Alfred Hintz, adjutant general of Oregon, was not immediately avail able for comment. Members of his staff had no comment Appling said Oregon law provides an annual salary of SH.uuu plus 60 days active duty in-grade pay for the commanding general of the Oregon National Guard. In another statute, a salary of $9,000 is designated for the adjutant general. Two Salaries Involved The adjutant general serves as commanding general of the Oregon national guard and Appling said "it appeas that (here are two positions and two statutory salaries invol ved, even though it might be possible for the same person to hold both jobs simultan eously." Appling said the practice of the adjutant general having the added duties as command ing general "goes back years and years" and that the effect lias been that the one man filling both posts has received the $9,000 plus tiie 60 days of in-grade rate. The $6,000 sal ary is not involved, Appling said.

GOSS, Piste Iko't Nws Conference Financing Medical Insurance Through Higher Washington -HOT- President Eisenhower today expressed strong opposition to financing any form of medical insur ance through more social security taxes. The chief executive said the White House was having gome difficulty combining dozens of health insurance plans into one workable unit which his administration would submit to Congress. Pending a decision, how ever, he said he was utterly opposed to any form of com pulsory insurance and this ap plied equally to financing any insurance plans by connecting it with payments by individ uals or employers to the old age survivors program of the federal government. Other domestic news con ference highlights: -Eisenhower has no inten tion of reappointing William R. Connole to the federal power commission because, as he put it, he thought he could get a better man. He did not elaborate. -He quoted the Constitution and the Bill of Rights to demonstrate his belief that religion has no part in poll- tics. This was the President's Meeting him if "domestic require ments" should compel his re turn to the United States after spending a week at the Paris meeting. Eisenhower told his news conference today there are a number of important bills be fore Congress and some may be passed which should be vetoed. Eisenhower said the Nixon announcement did not mean that he expects to leave the summit conference before it ends. It simply put the other nations on notice that he might have to do so.
