Start of Span
Construction in
8 Months Seen
Salem-fflPD-Final legislative
approval was given to the
Astoria-Megler bridge late
Tuesday., Highway officials
said construction of the Co
lumbia river span should be
gin within eight months.
The 4.1 i mile toll bridge
won sanction of the Senate
26-1. The bill went to Gov
Mark Hatfield who already
has said he will sign it. The
House approved earlier. !
The action climaxed 30
years of planning, work, and
ideas. .
The $24 million, "two-lane
bridge will abolish an out
dated ferry system. It will
close the only gap In U.S.
Highway, 101 between Can
ada and Mexico. r i; i
The proposed toll' is $1.75
per car with trucks paying
slightly more, depending on
their size.; - .
A projected construction
schedule has the span open
ing for traffic in 1964. . :
Hare Only Dissenter
The lone dissenter was Sen.
John Hare (R-Hlllsboro), who
complained that Washington
state should pay half the cost,
The states have agreed that
Washington will pay 34.4 per
cent and Oregon 65.6 per
cent, splitting the tolls 50-50
when the bridge is paid for.
in 1903. . ' ,
Tolls will not be enough at
first to pay for costs. The con
tract to be signed with Wash
ington, probably in July, calls
for Oregon to pay the first
$100,000, of any deficit. The
rest will be split with Wash
ington not to pay any more
than $200,000 in- any year,
Each- state will' build its
own approach. Washington's
will cost $180,000 and Ore
gon's $1.5 million more cost
ly because the ship channel is
on the Oregon side.

U.S. Pledged To Block Armed
Intervention bv Russia in Cuba
Washington -: ttlPD ' - The
United States was firmly
pledged today to block any
Soviet armed intervention in
Cuba.
President Kennedy warned
Soviet Premier Nikita Khru
shchev Tuesday night this
country would act immediate
ly to hurl back any "military
intervention by outside force."
The President's sternly
worded note also cautioned
Russia against using the Cu
ban situation as a pretext "to
Inflame other areas of the
world." Kennedy said this
would be "dangerous to world
peace."
The American note, handed
to Soviet Ambassador Mikhail
Menshikov at the State De
partment, was a reply to a
message from Khrushchev
asking Kennedy "to put an
end to the aggression against
the republic of Cuba."
Khrushchev charged the
United States had aided the
invasion and said Russia
would "extend to the Cuban
people and its government all
the necessary aid to repel the
armed attack on Cuba."
The President replied that
Khrushchev was laboring "un
der a serious misapprehension
in regard to events In Cuba."
He said there had been grow
ing resistance in Cuba to the
Castro regime and some 100,
000 Cuban refugees naturally
Riots Around World
Alleged U.S. Aid To
By United Press International
Communist-led demonstra
tions protesting alleged U. S.
aid to the anti-Castro invaders
of Cuba spread around the
world today in a wave of vi
olence recalling the Red-organized
anti-Belgian riots set
off by the death of Congo ex
Premier PatriceXumumba.
There were growing indica
tions of anti-Communist re
sistance to the mobs in Latin
America, scene of the worst
outbreaks of violence.
In Moscow, U. S. Charge
d' Affaires Edward Freers was
expected today to protest
Tuesday's attack on the em
bassy by mobs of Russians,
NSmall groups of hard-core
Communists and other chronic
America-haters turned out in
Western Europe. But officials
and the press west of the Iron
C u r t a i n seen.ed generally
sympathetic to the invaders.
In some Latin American
countries, rioters inflamed by
anti-American speeches turn
ed their fury on Roman Cath
olic churches, local anti-Communist
newspapers and other
targets. - -
There were strong Indica
tions of International organiz
ation in the riots. Throughout

The worst outbreaks re

Cubans in their struggle for
freedom." - '
Kennedy denied the United
States had engaged in military
intervention in Cuba, and he
made it clear any Soviet arm
ed intervention would be met
by U., S. action.
The President also address
ed himself to Khrushchev's
statement that the Cuban situ
ation, if allowed to proceed,
might "provoke a chain re
action" all over the world.
Kennedy said:
"I have taken careful note
of your statement that the
events in Cuba might affect
peace in all parts of the
world. I trust that this does
not mean that the Soviet gov
ernment, using the situation
in Cuba as a pretext, is plan-
of the world.
