ROSE PICARD ROY PICARD Kishi Cabinet Quits; Election Slated Monday Tokyo (UPD - Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi and his gov eminent resigned en masse tonight. The cabinet resigned after the ruling Liberal-Democratic party and the opposition So cialist parties had agreed ear lier tonight to elect a new prime minister at a special Diet (parliament) session be ginning next Monday. Pro-American Hayato Ike- da, whcAwas elected Thursday as new president of the ruling party, is certain to be elected new prime minister Monday. This is assured because his party has an absolute minori ty in the Diet. Diet Boycotted Earlier today, the opposi tion Socialist party boycotted the Diet and refused to take part in the election of a new prime minister. It appeared that Kishi, hospitalized with six stab wounds inflicted by a right wing fanatic Thurs day, would remain In office. But when Kishi's cabinet announced plans for calling the extraordinary session and then resigning, the Socialists agreed to end their boycott. Kishi was in fine spirits to day and joked with callers at the hospital. He is expected to be hospitalized about 10 days. Annexation of Business Site Is Recommended Medford's city planning commission last night recom mended that a potential busi ness site be annexed to the city. The commission had been informed that a firm employ ing 35 persons may locate on the site. The site. encompasses some five acres of land located to the northwest of Crater Lake highway near its intersection with Delta Waters rd., adja cent to the existing city boundary. Ervin Hogan, an attorney for the property owners, told the commission that annexa tion is one of the prerequisites to the business deal. Hogan said the Cummings Diesel Sales company, with headquarters in Columbus, Ind., is thinking of locating a $150,000 building on the site. It would employ about 35 men year around, and would serve as a sales and repair shop. Recommend Annexation The commission also rec ommended that the area be annexed as a limited commer cial zone. It was pointed out that there are existing limited commercial zones near this area and which are already in the city. The city council will nave to act on the commission's recommendation. The commission tacked three conditions onto its rec ommendation. They are, that the property have only two exits to the highway; that the building be set back 100 feet from the highway; and there be no storage of equipment In the front yard. City Manager Robert Duff said the company owners have already indicated that it will comply with the conditions. Action Against Journal Dismissed Portland (UPD-District Judge Ray D, Shoemaker has dis mlflHod a criminal action against the Journal Publish ing company for unauthorized use of the Allied Printing Trades Union label. Judge Shoemaker's ruling followed a delayed hearing on the case. Journal Attorneys Manley B, Strayer and Cleve land Cory submitted a brief In support of their argument that "intent" of the corpora tion's officers was necessary to prosecution of the alleged crime. No evidence and no case was put up by the district at torney s olflce. The state was represented by Deputy DIs. trict Attorney Oscar Howlett. The semi . official news paper did not describe the types of warships or guns but termed the alleged firing "an Insolent challenge to our sovereignty." Red China Million Due The report coincided with the scheduled arrival today of a high-level Red Chinese trade mission expected to do business with the Fidel Cas tro regime and possibly pave the way for Cuba's diplomat ic recognition of Pelplng. Oregon Stevenson Vote Said Legal Salem IUPI) - Oregon Elec tion Director Jack F. Thomp son said Thursday that the one member of the Oregon delegation to the Democratic national convention who vot ed for Adlai Stevenson did so legally. Oregon cast lBVi votes for Kennedy while one member, Mrs. Virginia Grant of Port land, cast her half vote for Stevenson. Oregon's delegation w a s pledged lo Kennedy on the first ballot because he won the May 20 state primary. But Thompson said that Mrs. Grant was a delegate because she is Oregon's national com mitteewoman and she was not bound by the Kennedy pledge. The U.S. Embassy reserved comment on the firing charge, saying that any answer would have lo come from the U, S Navy. But observers believed that the alleged Incldont, which supposedly was watched by Castro officers including the military commander- of Orl- cntc Province, Callxlo Gar cia, would be used as part of the government's cam paign to force the U.S. Navy out of Guantunamo. Said on Maneuvers Revoluclon sulci that the warships wore "on maneu vers" and engaged In "artil lery practice," Implying that they were firing live shells or ammunition cither at or near Cuban territory. The report suld that the first of the warships came within two (o two and one half miles of the beach near Sigua, about halfway be tween Santiago and Guantan amo, where an Army post ii located, Guantanamo, site of the U. S. naval base, is ap proximately 40 miles cast of Santiago. Second Charge Today's accusation was the second charge of U.S. naval violallun of Cuban territorial waters within two months. On May 13 Castro charged the U.S. Navy with several violations which were denied. mm 'My r washes in seconds . . .
