Immflg tas irotheir Ti Aid in Study of Jnt8liigence: Duncan Visions $10 Increase in Basic School Support This Year Salem 1UPD House Speaker Robert Duncan said today it appears that basic school sup port will be increased this ses sion by $10 a census child as Gov. Mark Hatfield recom mends but complained that "it should be more." ; He said the estimated $6 jnlllion loss in the current bi ennium made by "the gover nor's tax . commission may ' have been the difference." Thn Tax Commission said Friday it appears that Instead of a $39 million surplus the state will have about $33 mil lion left over when the new blennlum starts this summer. The $10 would raise the state's contribution to local school costs from about 36 per cent to about 40 per cent over the next two years, or $115 per child. "Fifteen dollars per child more should be a minimum," I the Medford Democrat said "But we apparently don't have the money. It would take a tax Increase and no one wants that." Duncan said the 1961-63 budget Is shaping Up just about the way Hatfield rec ommended, about $359 mil lion. The legislature rolled Into Its 16th week and 106th day today. Duncan said there is a possibility the session could carry over Into next week. He said he doesn't contem plate any night sessions in the House in any case. . Duncan said there are seven proposals he wants to see en acted before he goes home. They are: A new social servic es department, especially the mental health division: state labor elections . machinery; basic school increase; timber tax reform; medicare; commu nity colleges, but with, less money; and formation of a state commission on constitu tional revision; He also favors milk, indus try safeguards. " ' Nixon Convinced U.S. Must Use Force To Counter Su by e rsion ' Washington - (UPD - Former Vice President Richard M- Nixon is convinced the United States must find the legal de vices to use its own military force to counter Red sub version in Cuba, Laos or Latin America. He has . expressed these Experimental Rates Listed For Moving Petroleum Salem - Controversial ex perlmental rates designed to encourage greater'' use of equipment moving bulk pe troleum products out of the Coos . Bay area have, been authorized for a period of one year"'.ly the public ' utility commissioner effective April 28. ,,7V, The new rates; which, give the six major petroleum ship pers in the area a nine per cent discount If they use equipment supplied by com . merclal carriers for more than 400 hours a month,; were an 1 nounced April 21; r Commissioner Jonel C, Hill said the unprecedented rate making principle would help deter the shippers from In stalling their own truck fleets by supplying an incentive for greater use of the commercial rigs already engaged In this service. . ; Hill said the rates were pro posed by two of the four transportation firms operating In the Coos Bay area after shippers had balked at exist ing rates and had threatened to begin their own transpor tation if a lower rate system could not be worked out. . Many of the 34 common carriers authorized to haul petroleum out of the test area voiced protests that the insti tution of such rates would spread to other commodities besides petroleum. The ma jority, Hill said, agreed that it would be fair to try the system in an Isolated area, The carriers operating out of Coos Bay serve only the southwest Oregon area; , Hill said when the year test period Is up the rates will be reevaluated. views to President Kennedy and has urged that intelligence and "operations" responsibili ties be separated in the Cen tral IntelligenceAgency. Nixon believes strongly, It can be stated, that in the face of Communist subversion this government must find the legal devices - as it did in the case of Korea - to employ its power on the side of freedom. Multilateral 'action will hot be possible and mere eco nomic assistance will never work in Latin America, he feels. The man who lost the presi dency to Kennedy last Novem ber thinks the Democratic President showed great cour age and leadership in deciding that the United States should give aid to the rebel invasion of Cuba which failed last week.- He is pictured as uncritical of that decision and has tried to assure Kennedy he need not be inhibited on future foreign policy moves by any fear of political criticism. Nixon was one of the first in the Elsenhower administra tion to urge that, the United States develop para-military, guerrilla - type forces for use against Red aggression. He still feels American de velopment In this field Is woe fully inadequate. Russian Crop Acreage Increased Washington (UPD - The For eign Agricultural Service said today an abnormally early spring in many regions of the Soviet Union enabled Russian farmers to. plant a larger acre age to spring crops than in 1960. More than 16 million acres were seeded to 'all spring crops by April 5,; compared with less than nine million on the same date a year ago. Tills area, however, is a small pro portion of total spring acre age, which is close to 360 mil lion acres. Besides early spring grains, the Russians also planted cot ton, sugar - beets, sunflower seeds and other crops.

Trip $84.10 $133.50 There's a Greyhound Agent Neor You Move Outgrowth Of Ill-Starred Cuba Invasion Washington -(UPD President Kennedy today assigned his brother, Atty. Uen. Kooert r . Kennedy, to help in a top- level study of the nation s m te'lligence structure and ca pacity for limited war opera tions. The president also said that Allen W. Dulles, director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and Adm. Arleigh A. Burke, chief of naval opera tions, also would work on the project which is being direct ed by Gen. Maxwell D. Tay lor, retired former Army chief of staff. . Outgrowth of Invasion The moves were an out growth of last week's ill starred rebel invasion of Cuba. White House Press; Secre tary Pierre Salinger stressed that Taylors study oi para military operations, (noncon ventional, guerrilla-type war fare) which the White House announced Saturday, is "gov-ernment-wide.7 . . .. . Salinger applied this em phasis 'when asked if the President had asked his broth er to ' help investigate the CIA s role in the abortive Cu ban invasion and in - all as pects of the nation's defense activities. . . One-man Task Force Salinger : said Taylor still will be considered "essential: ly: a one-man task force, but he will have the assistance of these gentlemen." x He said it still is hoped that the review can be completed in two months. - American officials have acknowledged that the rebel invasion, supported by the United States, was ordered after.', miscalculations -were made as to Castro's military strength and possibilities for an uprising inside Cuba. ' Wide Experience Asked why the President had chosen his brother to join In the study, Salinger said the attorney general had former ly been chief counsel of the Senate investigations, subcom mittee and had "wide experi ence in the field of govern ment agencies and organiza tion." : . " ' Asked If Robert Kennedy, Dulles and Burke would de vote full time to the project, Salinger said: ' "No, General .Taylor-' will carry on the study - and the others will work with him." Salinger was asked if the President had asked Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield (Mont.) to withhold any senatorial investigation of the CIA's role In the Cu ban, situation. - Salinger said he knew of no such request. Mansfield has long been an advocate of greater congres sional supervision over the CIA. Makes Big Mistakes Officials here said that U.S. Intelligence made two major miscalculations in Cuba.- They said it badly mis judged Premier Fidel Cas tro's military power and the degree of his police-state con trol over the Cuban people. On the military side, these sources said, one of the big failures was in not knowing the number of planes Castro had in- operation. There has been no verification of re ports that he had Soviet MIGs in operation, but he did have far more propeller - driven planes than U.S. intelligence estimated. i . . Rockefeller To Talk With JFK Washington -(UPD- President Kennedy will confer Tuesday with Gov.

Johnson to give Truman a further briefing Tuesday in Independence, Mo. ,: T 'The President and Eisen hower talked over, the Cuban situation for one hour and 25 minutes Saturday at secluded Camp David in Maryland's Catoctin Mountains. E 1 s e n- hower later called on all Americans to support Ken nedy in the crisis. ' Soviet -Premier Niklta Khrushchev sent Kennedy a note Saturday declaring that the United States was follow ing a "slippery and dangerous path" In Cuba and elsewhere that could lead to world war.
