Jean Lewis (D-Portland) said had "attacked the integ rity of one of the high offi cials" of Oregon. The committee voted unan imously Thursday to subpoe na Angus B. Campbell, Os wego. The action came in the midst of a crowded hearing on school reorganization. Sen. Lewis showed the com mittee a letter received by several legislators, attacking Chancellor John Richards of the Slate Board of Higher Ed ucation. Letter Urges Repeal The letter was signed with the name Angus B. Campbell, who listed himself as presi dent of Order of Patriotic Americans. It said "Richards should be replaced by a true American before he does fur ther damage." The letter, urging repeal of school district reorganization, said Richards was "reported to have been an official of UNESCO" which the letter described as "traitors to our country." A section of the two page let ter, headed "Chancellor John R. Richards and UNESCO," said UNESCO was "one of the brood of deadly agencies spawned by the United Na tions" and "designed to oper ate in the schools to destroy in American youth all sense of loyalty to their own coun try." Charges Said 'Smear' Sen. Lewis said the charges appeared to be "a smear . . ." and Campbell should appear before the committee. Asked if he cared to com ment on the letter, Richards noted that his appo'ntment to UNESCO "was an Eisenhower appointment and, of course, thoroughly checked out by the FBI." Richards served several years ago as chairman of a U.S. delegation to UNESCO. Alhicl I'hpniirol SB'i Alum Co.

J 44 Dick House Asks Justification of Federal Building Dick House of the House of Security, Medford, requested the Medford city council last night to seek justification of a "$5 million expenditure" for the proposed federal office building here. The council heard House's request and then adjourned without comment, giving no indication that they would act on the request. House claimed that he read in the Mail Tribune that the federal government was plan ning to spend $5 million for the new federal building -half of it for site acquisition alone. House culled the expendi ture "federal foolishness," and said "it does not seem to me to be at all justified, nor has ihe need for it been proven." He said he hoped the council would seek justification of this expenditure. House 'Way Oft' (Medford Postmaster Moore Hamilton and Medford Gen eral Services Administration Superintendent Forrest Herd man, both said this morning that House Is "way off," on his estimate of the cost of the federal building. (While cautioning that no figure is yet official, Herdman pointed out that the estimated cost of the building and site acquisition together is slightly over $2 million. (Herdman said he could not recall ever having seen a story in the Mail Tribune in which a S5 million figure was men tioned for the federal build ing.) House said utter last night's meeting that the reason he approached the council on the matter was so the local press would pick up his views. Sun Mine B 1 i Texaj Co 97 . Texan Gulf Solllir 21'.

S017 Tiblt Rock RoH Centril Point v School Reorganization Described as 'Holocaust' Salem - fUPU - A crowd of irate citizens who packed a Senate Education Committee hearing described school dis trict reorganization as a "holo caust" Thursday and clashed with ' school administrators over whether the 1057 Ore gon law should be repealed. But the tag - wearing tax payers found educators sur prisingly on their side in agreeing that the law at least needs amendment to make it more workable and fairer to minorities and local commu nities. The testimony came on Senate bill 302 by Sen. Ben Musa (D-The Dalles) which would halt school district re organization where it now stands by repealing the law. Musa said the question should be referred to the voters. The audience, many wearing tags saying "support 302" applaud ed Musa. Eugene Fisher of the Ore gon School Board Association urged amendment of the law to allow rejection by a simple majority of voters and to let local school boards continue lo operate. Such bills have been introduced. But Fisher agreed the law "is not acceptable as it is." He defended the basic prin ciples of the Jaw, however, and said social changes have made larger administrative units imperative. At the same time, he said, local control "remains fundamental." Harold Baker of the Mor row County School Board, EARLIER PENSIONS Salem - IUPII - Rep. Edward Fadeley said Wednesday he is sponsoring a bill to let a pub lic employee become eligible for pension rights after five years, instead of the present 10. strongly attacked the law. He said Morrow was the first county to reorganize and he wanted to help other dis tricts avoid "falling into this holocaust." Baker said two of the coun ty's 11 schools had been clos ed, directors had been vastly decreased, and districts had been shocked to learn they were unable to "vote out" once reorganization was begun. Beatnik Pacifists Make Futile Move To Board U.S. Navy Warship Dunoon, Scotland rtlPD A small group of beatnik pacificists made a futile move to board a U. S. Navy war ship today to protest the establishment of a nuclear sub marine base in Scotland. The pacifists, some with beards and flowing hair, pad dled their canoes up the River Clyde but were intercepted by British police and Royal Navy guards before they could reach the Proteus, mother ship for America's nuclear-powered Polaris submarines. In a chase around the stern of the 18,500-ton submarine tender, two of the pacifists fell out of their canoe, but were fished out of the water and taken to shore. Two others were hauled bodily into a police launch after refusing to get out of another canoe. , The water-borne demonstrations erupted shortly after the Proteus steamed into Holy Loch on schedule this morning. The demonstrators, who had hung placards on the pier which said "remember Hiroshima," shouted "ban the bomb" as they headed for the Proteus.
