House Set to Pass Scaled-Down
Version of Medical Care Bill
Washington - IUPI) - The
House was ready to pass to
day a scaled - down proeram
which would provide federal
state medical care aid to be
tween 500,000 and one mil
lion needy old folks.
Hie stage was set for roll
call approval of the plan
when the House Wednesday
rejected an attempt to send
the bill back to the ways and
means committee for more
study.
Communists Voice
Angry Impatience
Over Stalled Talks
Ceneva - IUPII - Communist
delesatcs today expressed
angry impatience at what they
termed Western stalling tac
tics at the stalemated 10-na-tion
disarmament conference.
The two sides, however,
actually were just marking
time until the return from
Washington of U.S. delegation
chief Fredrick M. Eaton.
Eaton left Geneva last week
end for consultations on fu
ture American disarmament
policy.
Reports from London said
the latest allied consultations
had not yet resolved n split
over whether the West should
g6 along with the Soviet de
mand to begin disarmament
by eliminating all means of
delivering nuclcor weapons.
Today's session lasted two
hours and 45 minutes, in con
trast to the four-minute meet
ing Wednesday. No one had
had anything to say Wednes
day, but it was a different
story today.
The Polish, Romnniun and
Bulgarian delegations reiter
ated the Communist allega
tions that the western powers
are stalling because they have
no desire for disarmament.
U.S. deputy delegate
Charles C. Slclle opened with
a statement that patient nego
tiations rather than abuse
would result in working out
an alternative to the arms
race, a goal he said he was
ure the U.S. and Soviet Rus
iia shared.
The Soviet bloc gave every
Indication it was building up
to a point where it could
break up the conference-blaming
western delays-and lake
their revised proposals to the
United Nations for a big
propaganda show.
Today's session was the
45th since the disarmament
conference began March 15
and to date there has been
very little meeting of eastern
and western minds.
Judge Denies Stay
For Doomed Man
Walla Walla -IUPII-Superior
Court Judge Glen L. Bean has
denied a stay of execution for
convicted murderer John R.
Broderson, who is scheduled
to die at midnight Friday.
The stay had been request
ed by penitentiary Warden
Bob Rhay and Assistant At
torney General Stephen Way
so that a sanity hearing could
be conducted for the 35-year-old
convict.
Broderson was convicted by
a Clark county jury of the
knife-slaying of a Camas car
salesman last November. He
was sentenced to death last
May 20.
Nyssa Woman, 25,
Collision Victim
Nyssa, Ore.-IUPII-Mrs. Phyl
lis Larae Mitchell, 25, Nyssa,
died late Wednesday when
her automobile slrock a boat
and trailer being pulled by
a pickup truck.
Officers said the accident
happened seven miles west of
here.
Mrs. Mitchell was thrown
from the car after the impact
and the car rolled over on
her, slate police said.
The truck was driven by
Richard Wayne Pcrcifield, 18,
of Marsing, Idaho.
The measure would offer
federal matching grants to
states that agreed to expand
their public assistance pro
grams to include medical
benefits for persons over 65
who can not afford medical
care but are not poor enough
to be on relief.
Would Extend Bentfils
The bill also would extend
Social Security benefits to
875,000 more workers and
make another 450,000 persons
subject - to Social Security
taxes. .
The AFL-CIO has stepped
up its drive for passage of a
broader medical care pro
gram. The organization threat
ened to withhold political
support from congressional
candidates who do not en
dorse the Democratic Forand
bill, which would expand the
Social Security program to
pay most medical bills for an
estimated 12 million elderly
persons.
The administration has
offered a counter proposal,
based on fcderal-state subsi
dies for private health insur
ance, which also would help
about 12 million persons.
The administration has of
fered a counter proposal,
based on federal - state sub
sidies for private health in
surance, which also would
help about 12 million persons.
Sen. Pat McNamara (D
Mich.), chairman of a subcom
mittee studying various medi
cal plans, has said he was
confident the Senate would
"beef up" the House bill.
Other congressional news:
Wheat: Democratic farm
leaders in the House hoped to
push through a plan to curb
wheat surpluses by lightening
production controls and rais
ing price supports. The House
already has rejected the sup
port cutting plan President
Eisenhower prefers and also
turned down a Senate. passed
bill to cut plantings but retain
current price props.
Influence: A bill to ban
backstage attempts to influ
ence decisions of federal regu
latory agencies appeared to
have small chance of passage
this year. The House Com
merce Committee unanimous
ly approved the measure Wed
nesday but other legislation
probably will crowd it out.
Portland Census
Figures Found
To Be Correct
Porlland-lUPIi-The Portland
Chamber of Commerce said
today it has been convinced
that preliminary 1960 census
figures, which showed a popu
lation loss of 3,289 for Port
land since 1950, were cor
rect. Thomas W. Delzell, cham
ber president, appointed a
special committee to make a
recheck after the figures were
released. He said at that time
the preliminary figures didn't
seem to jibe with increases
in housing, numbers of school
children and utility connec
tions.
The preliminary figures
listed Portland's population
at 370,339.
No Major Discrepancies
The special committee re
ported that "an examination
of individual census tract fig
ures within the city indicates
no major discrepancies, but
rather bears out the belief
that this census has been rea
sonably complete." Delzell
added that examination of
the census figures by other
criteria support this same belief.
The committee found that
a net gain of about 12,000
dwelling units within the
city in the past 10 years was
offset by a decline in the
average number of persons
per dwelling unit in the city.
Young families with children
have tended to settle in the
suburbs.
