Salem - (UFD - An emergen cy clause, that would permit oil exploration to begin off the coast this summer was added to a tidelands oil bill Thursday, . The House Natural Resourc es committee pulled the com mittee approved bill back briefly to make sections of the measure dealing with ex ploratory geological and seis mic permits efectlve immedi ately upon signature. Sections letting the Land Board lease blocks offshore land for full scale develop ment and exploration would not become effective for 90 days. .' Said Best Tim Chairman Clinton Halght (D-Baker) said summer was the best time for exploratory offshore oil searches and he felt some firms might be in terested in obtaining permits immediately. But, he said, the board should have the 90 day peri od to study oil leasing before calling for bids to lease the offshore blocks. The committee also revised a sectlon.of the bill to let the land board set either flat oil royalty rates, or slldlng-scale rates that would be based on the amount of production. The 12Vi per cent minimum was retained. A provision requiring hear ings prior to granting beach easements was further spelled out.

Mark Hat field issued an ultimatum to backers of a million dollar truck tax cut today. The governor declared he will veto a bill calling for tax slashes for trucks over 44,000 pounds unless the legislature adds a clause placing it on the ballot.' It would be the ses sion's first veto.' Hatfield's announcement posed a stiff choice for sup porters of the hard-fought measure which passed the Senate 24-5 and the House 38-22. . ' That is four votes more than the two-thirds needed to override a veto in the Senate, but two votes short of the necessary number in the House. . "In addition, Republicans might sustain the governor re gardless of their earlier votes. On the other hand, as Hat field noted in his message, the voters In 1952 turned down a heatedly-campaigned proposal to end the weight mile tax on trucks, y - A supporter of the present bill estimated a campaign would cost truckers $250,000, with Voter approval still un sure. , ' The governor said "I can not 'in good conscience sign a bill which would reduce state revenues more than a' million dollars in a category on which the people expressed them selves so strongly in 1952." ; Gasoline - The House killed a bill to set new regulations for transportation of flam mable liquids. The measure would have nullified some 20 cltsj ordinances. . Daylight Time - A bill to let cities or counties choose summer daylight saving time was sent to the House floor with 4-2 committee approval. Tenure for School Administrators Killed by Vote Salem ' (UPD The Senate Ed ucation Committee Thursday killed a controversial house- approved bill to take tenure away from school administra tors, and gave a cool recep tion to a proposed $400,000 educational research pro gram. ' The committee also dead locked over a bill to move higher education system head quarters from Eugene to Salem.. ' ; The bill to eliminate school administrators' tenure was vigorously opposed by educa tors, who said it would give school boards arbitrary pow? ers. Program Urged It was killed by a 4-3 vote, with Sens. William Grenfell, Walter Leth, and Ward Cook voting to keep It alive. The education research pro gram, which would be run by a special council, was urged by spokesmen for the Oregon Education Association. Committee members said, however, funds were short and the education department already contained profession als to do the job. A bill to transfer higher education system offices to Salem ' remained ; half alive after the committee failed 4-3 to table it and then failed 4-3 to approve It. ' Davies To Speak At SOCTFA Meeting .

At right'is Premier Nikita Khrushchev who personally greeted Planning Commission Public Purchase of The Medford city planning commission last night ex pressed disappointment that a narrow strip of apparently useless land has been left along the west side of Biddle rd. as a result of the new free way, and recommended to the city council that the land be purchased for public use. The action came after the commission unanimously re jected a request to change the zone of three lots on Biddle rd.' from single family to lim ited commercial. The zone change had been requested by Lee Bumgardner and Ira Law rence for property located at 801, 851 and 895 Biddle rd. ' Commission Member Don ald Walters said that if the commission were to approve the requests "it's going to cost the taxpayers in the future much more money." Because of the shallow depth of the land, 80 feet, Walters said that whatever the land is used Big Cuban Totally Destroyed As Crowds Cheer Havana-fllPD-Two of Cuba's biggest department stores in cities nearly 500 miles apart lay In , ruins today, de stroyed by fires in a coordi nated campaign - of sabotage against Premier Fidel Castro. A $7 million, fire, apparent ly started by dropping phos phorus into the air-conditioning system, totally destroyed the ' El Encanto department store in Havana, Cuba's larg est. At the same time, flames raced through Santiago's big gest department store, La Co mercial, leaving it a charred shell. , Street crowds cheered as the flames brought down the walls of nationalized El En canto, a six-story building filling three-quarters of a Ha vana block. A third fire, In the govern, ment-owned . national paper factory, was discovered and put out before it could spread. Damage was estimat ed at about $900. The crashing volley from a firing squad at the grim Ca bana fortress-prison here last midnight gave the govern ment's reply to the anti Castro campaign harsh re prisals against the premier's foes. Abelardo A. Aguiar, a sus pected saboteur caught with several electric detonators in his possession, was this year's 25th victim of the firing squads which have killed more than 600 Cubans since Castro seized power. Anti-Castro spokesmen say trained, fully equipped sabo teurs have been slipping into Cuba from abroad to carry out a campaign planned by a new "unified command" of groups opposing the premier. Castro declared Thursday he would be "implacably hard" in imposing firing squad justice on terrorists would instruct the U.S. dele gation to the Intr-American Development Bank meeting now under way in Rio de Ja neiro to work for this "next step" in his alliance-for-pro-gress program. The President, speaking at a session of the Council of the for "it is going to be a slum area. '. ' ' ' The entire strip of land lo cated between Biddle rd. and the new freeway is approxi mately 2,900 feet long, and varies in width from 80 to 100 feet. It is all in private ownership. In its proposed land-use plan the city has des ignated this land as a special problem area. Lawrence told the commis sion that the state paid for the rear three-quarters of his property but his home is lo cated on the' front quarter of the property and this repre sents the majority of the value of the property. Under questioning . by . the commission, Lawrence said the state did pay , for some damages to the remaining property, but added that this did not begin to pay for the full value of the land before the freeway was located there. One problem that is being Stores and those who transport or conceal terrorist equipment. Observers here foresee a "reign of terror" in Cuba as growing sabotage increases the number of executions and anti-Castroites retaliate with still more sabotage in a vici ous circle.

He said it would have three fundamen tal goals: -To "encourage all free 'Gagarin after flying in from his Black Sea vacation retreat only minutes before. This photo was taken from a television screen. . (UPI Telephoto) Suggests Land Strip considered by the commission is that Biddle rd. is designated as a niajor street. It is felt that widened and that will de crease the already shallow depth of the property nearest the freeway. City Manager Robert Duff said last night' that the city did make an effort- to have the highway commission pur chase all of this land and make it part of the freeway right of way. He said the com mission appeared willing, but it apparently was stopped by the Bureau of Public Boads. Walter : declared: "It is un fortunate that as a result of the freeway (it) dumps a bunch of problems off locally like this." He said this is something that the public should be aware of "because it's happening all over." Planning Consultant Ned Langford said the planning staff feels "this property is not suited to residential, not suited to commercial develop ment and not suited to indus trial development" The only alternative this leaves, he said, is public purchase. Langford suggested that the land might be put to some use as a nursery either for the city park department or for local garden clubs.' This strip of land will be easily visible from the freeway it was pointed out. The commission did not nec essarily suggest to the council that the city purchase the land, but asked that an effort be made to have some public agency, such as the state, pur chase it. up states of the hemisphere to set a deadline for completion of preliminary plans" ' for needed projects to enhance the well-being of all peoples in the hemisphere.
