Cook of Umatilla county said "we don't know what to think or what the impact is going to be." Cook added, "the ques tion in my mind is whether Boeing is really going to come over to use this."

Said Good Step ' George Wiese, chairman of the Mqrrow County Commis sion, said "any step in that direction is a good step."

Open Monday and Friday 10 a.m. till 9 p.m. , The happiness of the pas sengers when they landed aft er 11 days at sea in the hands of heavily-armed rebels was tumultuous. Many of them shouted "vivas" for Brazil and Portugal. A mob scene erupted at the gangway leading to land and safety tor the Santa Maria's captive passengers who ig nored the old nautical rule of "women and children first." Mrs. Joan Habcrson, 34, of Lincoln, Neb., said there was "great confusion" when the passengers started to leave the ship.

Penniless Spaniards Suffer During the bizarre trip, much depended on the status of, the passengers. First class passengers had bacon and eggs for breakfast, although food was reported running short. Dr. Irene Dunn, 62, of Clare mont, Calif., said: "I imagine passengers in the tourist class suffered more than we. There was less water there and sani tary facilities must have de generated. In the second class there was one case of measles aboard during the trip." Most of the affected passen gers were the penniless Span iards in steerage who were go ing home on government-paid tickets. Their quarters were sweltering and sickness and weakness caused by the in tense heat were reported among them. The ship turned hot under the broiling sun near the Equator and to make matters worse, the air conditioning broke down. Democrat, and Graham Dean, publisher of the Porterville Evening-Recorder.
