Portland Council
Receives Windfall
Portland - IUPII - The Port
land City Council today was
gleefully planning how to
spend an extra $943,000.
The money represents un
expected revenue during the
year ending last June 30.
Officials said the money
came from such sources as
Municipal Court fines and for
feitures, business licenses and
building permit fees.
The City Council plans to
spend some $410, 000 to pay a
loan made to the city by the
Water Bureau several years
ago.

United States
Loans Yugoslavia
$100 Million
Washington -IUPII- The Unit
ed States sought today to bol-
s t e r Yugoslavia's economy
with a $100 million loan de
spite President Tito's recent
charge that the Western na
tions were the main source of
discord in the world.
The Stale department an
nounced the loan Tuesday,
just 24 hours after Tito de
clared in a speech in Belgrade
that Yugoslavia and Russia
had identical views on impor
tant world issues.
American officials here,
however, said Tito's remarks
did not appear to depart from
his past policy of "full nation
al independence" from the
Soviet bloc.
Other Loan Sources
The State department said
the loan agreement "will
serve to integrate Yugoslavia
more closely with the western
international economy."
In addition to the American
loan, the International Mone
tary Fund is putting up anoth
er $75 million in other cur
rencies while a group of Euro.
pean countries will extend
$100 million in credits.
As part of the agreement.
Yugoslavia will liberalize her
import controls and turn to
tariff principles favored by
the United States and other
Western countries.

shutgun deaths of Junction

er, 54, Junction City, was

District Court and S. Ellis Sco
ville of Brownsville was
named as his attorney. A pre
liminary hearing was to be

The shootings occurred late
Monday in front of Whet

year period ending June 30,

fied system eliminated about
90 employes. Some were
transferred lo other state

Leaders Order
Workers Info
SfreefsofCify
Brussels - (UPU - More than
10,000 shouting Socialist-led
strikers surged through the
heart of Brussels for three
hours today, smashing win
dows of buses, street cars and
pro-government newpaper of-
flees. There were sporadic
scuttles between strikers and
police.
Troops were dispatched to
guard the office of Premier
Gaston Eyskens as Socialist
strike leaders ordered workers
into the streets again Thurs
day for new demonstrations
against the government.
One nonstnking streetcar
worker was injured when he
was manhandled by the anti
government demonstrators in
Brussels. A government
spokesman said a railway offi
clal was injured seriously by
strikers in Liege,
Tear Gas Used
In Ghent, gandarmes used
tear gas to eject strikers who
forced their way ino the gas
and electricity headquarters
and tossed iron bolts and rocks
at the police,
It was the first time tear gas
had been used against strikers.
The march through Brussels
was the biggest demonstration
since the strike movement
broke out eight days ago in
protest against an austerity
program proposed by the gov
ernment.
But strong forces of mount
ed and truck-borne gendarmes
and riot police - with para
troopers standing by - avoid
ed any serious clashes with
the demonstrators who whis
tled and shouted demands for
the resignation of Catholic So-
cial Christian Premier Eyskens.
More than half a million
workers were idled in Bel
gium by the walkout which
has been denounced by the
government as attempted "in
surrection." Catholic labor un
ions refused to join the strike,
labelling it "revolutionary."
King May Return
there were reports that
King Baudouin, honeymoon

France Shrugs Off
Protests on Third
Nuclear Explosion
Paris -ftlPU The French gov
ernment shrugged off protests
over its third nuclear explo
sion in the Sahara Desert and
moved ahead today with plans
to harness the atom for de
fense and peace.
A French Foreign Ministry
spokesman made clear that
Moscow Radio's denunciation
of the atomic test as. a "mon
strous challenge tb world
opinion," and angry reaction
from African and other coun
tries would not stop the
French test series.
Fourth Test Due
Informed sources said a
fourth explosion at the desert
testing center of Reggane, 900
miles south of Oran, Algeria,
could be expected in a "rela
tively short t i m e" perhaps
in a few weeks.
France is the only country
known to be conducting
atomic tests. The United
States, Britain and Russia
have suspended their tests
while attempting to negotiate
a test ban in Geneva. How
ever, American oiiicials have
claimed Russia has been
carrying on underground tests
which can not be detected
with avail able monitoring
equipment.
French scientists Tuesday
exploded what was officially
described as a prototype of
low yield. They were known
to be well on their way to de
veloping transportable atom
bombs or nuclear warheads
for missiles or atomic
tillery.
These would provide the
atomic punch for the 50 Mi-
rage-IV supersonic bombers
France plans to produce in
the next five years, as well as
for the nuclear submarine,
missile-launching cruiser and
long range missiles the gov
ernment hopes to have by
1970.

But a government spokesman
said no decision had yet been
taken to ask for the king's
return. The spokesman also
said there were no plans to
institute martial law
The demonstrating strikers
in Brussels attacked several
street cars and buses manned
by non-strikers and smashed
window of the vehicles. Pas
sengers in the attacked ve
hicles escaped injury.
Virtually Immobilised
The eight-day strike, in pro
test against the planned aus
terity program aimed at re
couping economic losses as a
result of granting independ
ence lo The Congo, has virtu
ally immobilized Belgium.
More than half million
workers were out and the
strike was still spreading. The
small but militant Communist
party joined the Socialists in
backing the walkout, protest
ed the recall of Belgian para-
troop contingents from NATO
bases in West Germany and
accused the government of
arbitrary arrests of workers,
militant strikers and arbitrary
seizures of newspapers."
