MONKEY COLONY An architect's sketch
of the outdoor monkey colony to be con
structed at Oregon Primate Research Center
near Aloha in Washington county was ap
proved recently by the Medical Research
Foundation of Oregon. The Foundation is
one of the 30 agencies assisted in its support
through gifts made to the United Medford
Crusade. The Research Center, expected to
cost nearly two million dollars, was made
possible through a grant received in May
from the National Institutes of Health. The
monkey colony, to cost about $250,000, will
accommodate nearly 200 mulatla macaque
monkeys. By constructing the colony build
ing first it would make possible the acquisi
tion and conditioning of the necessary mu
latla macaque monkeys in sufficient time to
have an adequate supply ready for . the
opening of the research laboratories sched
uled for late 1961.

Katanga Mining Community Empty
Husk Following Congo Disturbance
Editor's note: United Press In
ternational reporter Itay Moloney
has logged thousands of miles since
the beginning of June to cover the
crises arising from Congo Inde
pendence. In the following dispatch,
he describes what Independence
meant to one of the Congo's richest
mining centers.
By RAY MOLONEY
Jadotville, Katanga -IUPD-Jadotville,
once a thriving
mining center, is an empty
husk today.
True, the giant chimney of
the Union Miniere Copper
Refining plant still belches
out its constant - stream of
smoke. But in the town the
majority of the shops are
closed.
Not only are they closed
they are empty. Their shat-
Proposed Projects
For State Highway
Commission Told
Salem - IUPII - Realignment
of the South Santiam High
way around a 10 mile slide
area between Upper Soda and
Tombstone Summit should be
the next project undertaken
on U.S. Highway 20, the State
Highway commission has been
told.
A delegation of some 20
members from localities rang
ing from Newport to Sweet
Home were present as the as
sociation's list of suggested
priorities was presented.
Roy Eames, Sweet Home
city manager, presented the
proposal for a completely new
road to replace the section
which is now subject to slides.
He pointed out! that the
limber cut in the area serv
ed by the road is over 150 mil
lion board feet a year and
that travel over the slide area
costs truckers more than $9,
000 a mile additional yearly
than other parts of the high
way. Bridge on Priority List
Second in priority projects
sought by the group is a new
bridge over Wiley Creek be
tween Sweet Home and Foster.
Need for this span will be
made more acute because of
the forthcoming construction
of Green Peter dam, Eames
said.
Sen. Andrew Natcrlin (D-
Newport) told the commis
sion the third priority proj
ect of the Highway 20 group
was reconstruction of the
highway at the Coast Range
summit at Little Elk Mountain.
At present the length of a
load carried over this section
of the route is limited to 50
feet, Naterlin said.
Longer Roads Needed
There will be a need to al
low longer roads when the
projected development of Ya-
quine bay is completed and
deep water ships serve the
port, he explained.
Considerable lumber will
be moved from valley ports
to the Yaquina bay area, Na
tcrlin said.
The commission also heard
William Tugman, Reedsport,
speak for the programming
of the final five mile section
of Highway 225 which will
link Roseburg with the coast.
In Present Plan
Highway Commission
Chairman Milo Mclvcr said
the project is included in the
present five year highway
plan and may be begun next
year.
Harry Gives Jack
All-Out Support
Independence, Mo. - lliPD -Former
President Harry S.
Truman greeted Sen. John F.
Kennedy like a long-lost son
Saturday and vowed nil out
support in the presidential
campaign Truman once tried
to keep Kennedy out of.
The 76-year-old former
chief executive didn't take
back any of the things he said
about Kennedy July 2 at the
Truman library when he said
t h e Democratic convention
had been "fixed" for Kenne
dy and suggested Kennedy
was loo young to be president.
But joining the 43-year-old
nominee on the same plat
form w here he had made
those statements, Truman
told a news conference that
the Democratic national con
vention had nominated Ken
nedy and that was good
enough for him.
"It's the law of the Demo
cratic party, and I'm a Demo
crat," Truman said. "I follow
their law."
In a session marked by
much smiling and laughter by
Kennedy and Trumnn, and a
number of quips by the for
mer president, Truman was
asked point blank if he still
felt the convention had been
"fixed" by Kennedy backers.
"I did not say that," Tru
man replied. "I said it looked
to me as if the convention was
already made up the way it
was supposed to go, and that
is what the trouble was. And
it was, and it has been done
all right, and they nominated
this man, and I am going to
support him. What are you
going to do about that,"
Another forthcoming proj
ect will be extension of the
west side bypass of Klamath
Falls across the Link River
bridge, a delegation from
Klamath Falls who had ask
ed for the project was told.
Members of the commis
sion also sent to Gov. Mark
Hatfield a $191 budget for the
1961-63 biennium. The gov
ernor will include it in his
stale budget which will be
sent to the legislature.
tered windows and the
smoke - seared wreckage of
many give eloquent testimony
of the days of madness that
gripped the Congolese popu
lation. It was a madness that
sent them surging out of their
shantytown homes in 'an orgy
of looting and violence.
May Be New Exodus
It was a madness that sent
the European population
streaming to safety-some to
Elisabethville, 60 miles away,
and some to Rhodesia.
Today less than one-fifth
of the normal European pop
ulation of Jadotville has re
turned. Now the ground is
being laid for what may be
a new exodus.
A new factor has been add-ed-the
United Nations..
Last week the U.N. "pres
ence" lay in the hands of 24
Swedes under the command
of Lt. Rune Perman of Oes
tersund. Situation Looked Ugly
Ninety Moroccan troops
came in later, but took no im
mediate part in the U.N. pa
trols that roam through the
tense, hate - ridden African
quarter of the city.
The situation looked ugly
at one point.
The victims of the week
end killings were being bur
ied and the Belgian officers
of the local gendarmerie
openly predicted trouble.
The main square of the Ki
kula African Commune was
ringed by an uneasy crowd
of Congolese. Outside the po
lice station strong reinforce
ments of heavily armed Con
golese gendarmerie and po
lice under their European of
ficers were standing by.
Prepare for Trouble
Suddenly from down the
dusty road came the muted
roar of voices. While the Bel
gian officers looked on, Lt.
Perman quietly called four of
his men-none of them older
than about 22-logether, told
them to fix bayonets on their
automatic weapons and
marched them off to the road
to be ready for any trouble.
As the tiny group of five
marched across the square
they gave an impression of
dignified power - infinitely
more imposing than the jeeps
the Sten guns and the tear
gas, the bayonets and the ba
tons of the assembled gen
darmerie and police.
There was no trouble.
Ex-Cuban Leader Sees Castro's Fall
Los Angeles-IUPII-The fall of
Cuban Premier Fidel Castro
and his government within
six months was predicted Sat
urday by a former prime min
ister of the island republic.
Dr. Manuel Antonio de Va
rona, here to rally support for
his revolutionary democratic
front, said that the days of
Castro's rule are numbered.
"The people realize that
Castro's premises are all lies."
he said. "Each day we gain
more and more support from
Cubans on the island and
those that have fled to other
American nations."
He said that even Castro'i
troops who fought with him
on the Cuban hillsides for six;
years are now deserting him.
