Tho option coincided with diplomatic reports here that Cuba is expected to establish diplomatic relations shortly with Communist East Ger many, further tightening Cas- tros political ana economic tics with the soviet ana torn munist Chinese bloc. ' ThA Naw declined to dis close the size of the increase but a spokesman said it was "not large."

Edwin Durno, Republi can candidate fdr the congres sional seat held by Rep. Charles O. Porter (D). amo is 180 enlisted men and eight officers, the spokesman said. The Navy would not say whether the increase was the result of worsening relations between the United States and the Castro government. The State department this week slapped an embargo on most trade with Cuba and recalled Ambassador Philip W. Bonsai for "extended consulta tions." ' Carry Only Sidearms The Navy spokesman said the Marine reinforcements consisted of "a small number of security troops, carrying only sidearms." Smith Says Voters Must Understand Issue Differences vimn Smith. ReDUbllcan candidate for tne unueu statn Spnats told a eroup of Smith boosters at a meeting at the Rogue Riviera weanes-j.-, nioM that nrceon voters m.i.t understand the differ ences in position -on Import ant Issues in the campaign be tween his opponent, Mrs. Maurine Neuberger, and himself. 'Mv nnnonent is on record o faunrinff a nnlicv of Soft- ncss toward the Iron Curtain countries and has expressea an unwillingness to fully live up to our commitments to ward our allies under our mu tual security pacts, the for mer governor' said. "T am the nnlv candidate that has shown any interest In the welfare of the wage and salary earners of Oregon. I have proposed a national program for building private dwellings that will stabilize Oregon's lumber market ana provide better Jobs for thou sands of Oregon workers. Fight Program "My opponent has stated iim nH attain that Oregon's. farm and industrial products should be used on the bar gaining list as a part of our national foreien nollcy. I dis agree. I will fight against any program which requires ure gon farm and industrial work ers to compete wlthi foreign products in our home mar kets when those products are manufactured or grown in lanls where low cost labor. living in a much lower stand ard of living than ours, is the basis of competition with Oregon products. If. Oregon inns have to compete with these products, It can ;only mean a lower earning power or complete elimination of In dustry and jobs. I will fight to see that discrimination against Oregon plywood, min ing and agriculture Is stop ped," Smith stated. "My program, briefly is," Smith continued, "a firm for eign policy toward the Com munist countries with a strong military establishment to maintain the peace with sufficient retaliatory power to discourage any aggressor. While we are maintaining the peace we must work diligent ly toward a plan for perma nent peace for all nations. We must use our foreign aid pro gram to make It possible for other nations of the free world to help themselves." In serving the people of Oregon, Smith said, "I will do everything possible to see that Oregon is given its fair share of defense and space age Industry. This will create a bigger field for Oregon in dustrial workers to have a better job and earning oppor tunity. I will fight unfair pro grams which eat further into the take-home pay of all earners." i GETS U.S. AID Amman, Jordan - IUPD - The United States will pay Jordan $3.5 million next year In aid for the current fiscal year, the Jordanian government an nounced Thursday. : I Cuban verbal attacks on the presence of U. S. forces at Guantanamo have sharply in creased as tensions grew be tween the two countries. Cas tro and other Cuban leaders have challenged the U. S. right to occupy the base and called the presence of U. S. forces a symbol of ''Yankee Imperialism." However, Castro has not gone so far as to demand abandonment of the base. Adm. Arleigh A. Burke, chief of U. S. naval operations, has said repeatedly that the base, ceded to the United States by treaty, will be defended if attacked. The U. S. action to strength en Marine forces on Guan tanamo came in the wake of a series of developments un derlining the deterioration in U. S.-Cuban relations. They included: A proposal by Sen. John F. Kennedy, the Democratic presidential nominee, that the United States sejze all Cuban assets in this country. Excuse for Recognition -Forecast by diplomatic of ficials that Castro will use the U. S. economic boycott as an excuse for recognizing the Communist Germany gov ernment. Any such action probably would prompt West Germany to withdraw its am bassador from Havana. -A recommendation by the nationwide committee on import-export policy that the United States cut off all tar iff concessions to Cuba. -An announcement by Maj. Ernest Che Guevara, presi dent of Cuba's National Bank, that Russia will send nearly 200 technicians to Cuba next year to perform unspecified tasks. - : ' State Fish, Game Merger, Outdoor Commission Urged LEGION COMMANDER-William R.

The present fish and game commissions would be abol ished. The proposal calls for all their duties and activities to be transferred to a new unified fish and game depart ment. Chairman Andrew Naterlin, (D-Newport), said the merger "is vital in the interests of the fish and game resources. especially the salmon. We can no longer afford to have split management of the salmon when major runs are declin ing steadily and conflicts be tween sports and commercial fishermen are mounting." Battle Expaciad The traditional battle be tween the factions is expected. The committee in calling for an outdoor recreation de partment recommends abol ishment of the State Marine Board, created last year, and its duties transferred to the new department. Merger of the state engineer and the Hydroelectric Com mission with the State Water resources Board also was urged. Naterlin said this would unify management of Oregon's water resources and eliminate duplication of ef fort. The committee rejected a proposal to establish a state de partment of natural resources on the grounds that the change for the 20 agencies which manage resources would be "too abrupt." Other Ideas Given Other recommendations: -Abolition of the dollar tag for persons buynig a one-day fishing license and for land owners fishing on their own property, -A bill calling for uniform regulation of salmon fishing on waters bordering Oregon, Washington and Idaho. -A requirement that the water resources board make studies of the clogging of riv ers by sand drifts or by silt due to erosion of farm lands or improper logging. Rehabili tation of the Nestucca, Sandy and John- Day rivers was cited -That state game officials launch a program to control seals and sea lions who prey on nsn in coastal and inland waters. Timber Operators Name Secretary Portland - IUPD"- Karl F. Glos, former manager of the Oregon Coast Operators, Coos Bay, has been named execu tive secretary of a new em ployer organization for the forest products Industry, call ed Timber Operators, Inc. . Glos said some 125 forest products firms had joined the organization which will rep resent the Douglas fir region of Oregon and Washington In labor management relations. It also will represent portions of Alaska and northwest Cal ifornia. Four organizations were dissolved to form the new group, Glos said. Mrs. Neuberger, Smith Exchange Wires in Dispute Portland-WPD-Mrs. Maurine Neuberger and Elmo Smith, rivals for the U.S. Senate, traded telegrams Thursday in a dispute over whether they will meet in a statewide tele vision and radio debate before the Nov. 8 election. Smith wired Mrs. Neuberg er urging her to accept his challenge as he made it. Mrs. Neuberger wired back that "You challenged me to a state wide television hookup debate and I accepted. How many times must I accept? I await your arrangements." Smith said in his wire to the Democratic candidate: "I reject your effort to evade the issue. No responsible pub lic official including myself has ever advocated initiating Mrs. Maurine Neuberger told a Mail Tribune report er late Thursday night that "I have accepted Elmo Smith's invitation to appear with him on a state-wide television program where a panel of newspaper men question us." She said that she Is now walling for the date of the program and as to who will pay for it. Mrs. Neuberger added that her schedule un til election day is full, but she would try to rearrange it to Include the program. If scheduled. a nuclear war. This is absurd, and both you and I know It." Mrs. Neuberger said in a statement accompanying her wire to her Republican rival: "I am baffled by Mr. Smith's scenery-shifting tactics. At first he attacked my firm op position to the United States initiating a nuclear war. On Monday, with great publicity fanfare, he challenged me to a state-wide television debate. I accepted the challenge. Now his latest press release changes the issue to defense of our treaty commitments and defense of our country which I have repeatedly stat ed must be defended and will be defended with all our strength. In his latest press release he also rejects the idea of a state-wide television debate and wants a TV quiz show instead. Does Mr. Smith want a debate or does he merely want publicity to cov er up his record of opposition to every progressive issue?" Smith told Mrs. Neuberger he also rejected her counter proposal for formal debate procedure. "The question tech nique used nationally in the great debates is widely rec ognized as being more in formative and more revealing than debate with prepared MEDFORDfJTRIBUNE Regional Edition Page 2A Gold Mining Shares Lose Some of Sheen In Lower Market New York -IUPD- Gold and mining shares lost some of their sheen today and moved lower in company with other stock market groups.

Similar gyrations were reported in Hong Kong, Toronto and elsewhere.
