UNGRATEFUL SQUIRREL Denver - CUPIt - A squirrel chewed through the telephone wire Wednesday at the Ameri can Humane Association head quarters. Neuberger, Smith Debate Issues in Portland Meeting Portland-IUPD-Maurine Neu berger and Elmo Smith, op ponents for the U.S. Senate, squared off at each other on medical care, aid to education, import quotas, employment and other issues in a debate here Wednesday night. Smith, a Republican, said he would support a compulsory medical insurance program for the elderly, incorporated into the social security pro gram, that would apply only to persons over 40 who were not otherwise insured. Mrs. Neuberger, a Demo crat, called for a medical care program for the elderly based on social security and drafted along lines of the Forand Bill. The two candidates differ ed on federal aid to education, import quotas and national spending. Mrs. Neuberger said feder al aid to education would be "a great help to Oregon schools." Smith replied while he would support federal aid "to a limited degree," he fear ed "the tendency would be for low states to pull the high states down. ' Smith said he would back import quotas on Japanese plywood, and called for cuts in federal spending through application of business prin ciples, consolidation, and a re turn of some services to pri vate interest. "Too many sacrod cows are nursing at the public treasury in Washington, D.C.," he said. Mrs. Neuberger suggested cuts in military spending through elimination of "anti quated" services. For exam ple, she suggested sale of the presidio military base In San Francisco to the city. She said she also opposed quotas on imports of Japa nese plywood. Smith called for a greater share of space age spending for Oregon. Mrs. Neuberger said she would stimulate Oregon economy through an improved housing bill, development of proposed Oregon Dunes National Park, and a cutback on present tight money policies. Smith said road and harbor improvements along the coast Jack Welcomes Union Support Portland-tUPH - Democratic Presidential Candidate John F.

Hoffa and President Harry Bridges of the Interna tional Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union. He said those differences "will continue."

The answer is no. How come then, you ask, that California leads the na tion in highway deaths over the Labor Day week end? tTiHE answer is quite simple. California has more cars than any other state. It is followed in lop automobile ownership by Texas, Pennsyl vania and New York. I : W: ! I II ii ENNEY1 ? Two missing employees of the United States Security Agency turned up at a Mos cow news conference and an nounced that they had defect ed to the Soviet Union, ac cording to Tass, the Russian news agency. Tass said they read a state ment saying they had defect ed because they "became con vinced the U.S. government knowingly makes false and , deceptive statements to defend , its own policy and condemn the actions of other nations." HMMMMMM. Judging by the language of the state '. ment, and assuming that they actually used those words, I'd guess that they "defected" be cause they're screwballs and so gravitated naturally to the communists.

One of. his last wishes was he be buried on 'the capitol grounds alongside his brother, Huey f. i.ong, who was killed by an assas ' sin's bullet a quarter of a century ago. His body was to ' lie in state there for the next 24 hours. At the end of that time, it will be determined where he will be buried, i There seems to be some con--1 trovcrsy over the place of burial. i. . There will be eight pall bearers at the funeral, among them Earl Long's nephew, U.S. Senator Russell B. Long, son of old Huey, who coined the vote - getting slogan: "Every Man a King." The Long dynasty is far from extinct. When he died, Ole Earl was the Democratic nominee for the U.S. congress from Louisiana's 8th district which amounts to election. Among those mentioned at his successor are Blanche Long, his estranged wife; Former State Sen. Speedy O. Long, a distant cousin; and Mrs. George Long, widow of ru Fnri'a hrnther. who repre sented the district until his death three years ago.
