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

Maurine Neuberger, and himself.
'Mv nnnonent is on record

"My program, briefly is,"

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. - :

Salem -0)P- The Legislative
Interim Committee on Natur
al Resources is recommending
to the 1961 Legislature that
the fish and game commis
sions be merged and that a
state department of outdoor
recreation be established as
soon as possible. -.-
The recommendations are
contained in the committee's
report filed Thursday with
legislative counsel.
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.

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.

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

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.
The clamor for gold began
to fade almost as fast as it
took hold Thursday when the
price for the metal soared to
$40.60 on the London bullion
market. Similar gyrations
were reported in Hong Kong,
Toronto and elsewhere.
The U.S. Treasury Thurs
day threw a damper on the
gold rush when it ruled out
any possibility of a- change in
the fixed prio for gold above
the current $35 an ounce.
