Quick Approval of
Lemnitzer as Head
Of Military Seen
Washington - (UPD - Early
Senate approval was forecast
today for President Elsenhow
er's appointment of Army
Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer to
be chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff.
Chairman Richard B. Rus
sell, (D-Ga.) of the Senate
Armed Services committee;
predicted the current pre
election session would act on
the nomination "unless some
very substantial opposition
arises." ..
Distinguished Career
Eisenhower Monday sent to
the Senate the nomination of
the 60-year-old Lemnitzer,
who has forged a distinguish
ed Army career as both a mil
itary commander and nego
tiator. Lemnitzer was named to a
two-year term to succeed Air
Force Gen. Nathan B. Twin
ing, who is retiring presum
ably because of illness.
Eisenhower's choice of
Lemnitzer came as no sur
prise. Lemnitzer had been ex
pected eventually to succeed
Cable Television
In Medford Topic
Of Roundfable
Cable television will be
available In Medford In the
very near future, according
to Everett Faber, vice presi
dent of the Oregon Broadcast
ing company.
Faber, speaking at the Mon
day noon Chamber of Com
merce roundtable, said that
final Installations are being
made at the "head end" of the
cable system in the Medford
hotel.
But, because of the techni
cal difficulties invovled, he
made no estimate of when the
signal, would be available to
individual set owners.
Essentially the cable Is
"community antenna" system
Faber said. By the use of
microwave relay it provides
stations which would not ord
inarily be received by Med
ford set owners.
The cable will carry three
stations: Medford (CBS), Kla
math Falls (ABC) and Rose
burg (NBC). ,It will have a
capacity of five channels.
No Portland stations have
been Included for largely com
mercial reasons, he said.
While the three smaller sta
tions will provide all of the
major networks, the exclusion
of Portland stations was also
"an effort on our part to pro
tect the local businessman
from the 'come-on' type of un
ethical advertising which we
find in the metropolitan mar
ket," Faber said later.
This cut-rate pricing for
'come-on' promotionals might
convey the wrong impression
about local merchant's pric
ing. Twining ever since he became
Army vice chief of staff in
1957.
The new chairman of the
Joint Chiefs is a native of

Shakeup Expected
The Lemnitzer appointment
could signal a widespread
shakeup in the military high
command as the Eisenhower
administration nears the end
of its last term.
Speculation on a successor
to Lemnitzer as Army chief
of staff centered on Gen.

chief. Also prominently men

Harrisburg Brief
Deadline Extended
Salem - (UPD - The city of
Harrisburg has been given
additional time to file a brief
in connection with Southern
Pacific railroad's move to
have the city's complaint
against it dismissed.
The city has asked Public
Utility Commissioner Jonel C.
Hill to order the railroad com
pany to place an automatic
electric flashing light signal
with gongs at the LaSalle st.
railroad crossing at the rail
road's expense.
Edwin L. Graham, Port
land, council for the firm,
said the crossing was one of
three which was included in
a PUC order handed down in
1951 which said costs of any
future signalization would be
borne equally by both parties.
At that time, he said, sig
nalization at the crossing was
not considered justified.

ate on a 12-hour work day to

can chieftains told President
Eisenhower to expect the
Democrats to "jettison" most
of his legislative demands.
Democratic Leader Lyndon
B. Johnson, his party's vice
presidential candidate, said
the long hours was a move to
sidetrack political feuding on
side issues and start voting on
amendments to a bill to boost
the $1 an hour minimum wage
to $1.25.
