House Speaker Tells Reason for Some Failures Salem -(UPD- House Speaker Robert B. Duncan restated Thursday that while it is too soon to appraise the 1961 Leg islature in its proper perspec tive, the bills that did pass were "good legislation." The fact that some pro grams failed to pass was due to a "fairly even division of philosophy, he said. He cited the fact that an in crease in taxes was not neces sary and added that some property tax relief was af forded by more liquor reve nue to cities and some to counties. . He listed these accomplish ments: -Community mental health clinics. ' -Community colleges. -At least temporary protec tion for the dairy industry and log haulers through the milk price control bill and the one banning log exports ex cept for domestic manufac ture. Pollution Bills Cited ' -Tighter air and stream pol lution legislation. -Industrial development, in cluding the Boardman project, and the Tidelands Oil bills. The labor election bill which he said "will eliminate much labor management strife." -Salary increases for aca demic and other state em. ployees. : -The Astoria-Megler bridge. Education Fares Well He said higher education fared well and noted that basic schoo) support was in creased above Gov. Mark Hat field's recommendation. This, Duncan said, will fur ther reduce real property taxes. Duncan said the state wel fare commission was "pre served from gubernatorial assault, as was the State In dustrial Accident Commission from the attack by the insur ance companies." Duncan said the fact the final budget of $366 million exceeded Hatfield's $359 mil lion request was Hatfield's "failure to request funds for new programs he recommend ed such as food distribution, OSU building, mental health, Boardman project, communi ty colleges, higher education, Oregon Technical Institute and the Increase' in .basic school support which the Leg islature decided should be larger than the governor recommended." Funds Necessary "Surely the governor," Dwv can. concluded, "In his criti cism of the legislative budget would not deny that funds had to be provided for these vital ly essential needs of the state." Duncan said government reorganization failed this year because of the conflict be tween Governor Hatfield and Secretary of State Howell Appling Jr. The Medford Democrat said there is "no question that re organization floundered large ly because of the rocks strewn in ita path" by Appling. Duncan said Appling was "bitterly" opposed and let everyone know about it. Appling had been strongly critical of Hatfield's plan to do away with the Board of Control. None of Hatfield's 20 cabi net system bills passed.

HOPPING TRIPS Detroit - Short-run shop ping trips put about 600 miles a year on the average auto mobile used by an American household. - Johnson Pledges Increased Help Build South Viet Nam Saigon, South Viet Nam - (UPD-Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson pledged more United States aid today to help South Viet Nam build up its mili tary forces and economy against Communist aggression and subversion. He announced the plans to the National Assembly and then discussed them for two .hours and 45 minutes with President Ngo Dingh Diem. He said he and the president had a "complete meeting of minds." The day's developments made it clear that President Kennedy's administration will go a long mile and more to win the critical test of its ability to counter Red aggres sion in Southeast Asia. Diem had asked help to boost his 190,000 man military forces to 170,000. Johnson refused to disclose figures or other details for security reasons but he said the United States 4s prepared fseyerf mumvmnw? yiSJrtM:yy JjJeyeSJsssy.if.lpW'1 Hea3SEr8jr3g5miwj i';M nn nr ' W';V ''1 MV ' '-:- ; j: w v , v ft -'n - jfi " i 1 am 11)' WINS SPEED TROPHY Maj.

S. military assistance leaders to cooperate in developing counter-guerrilla forces in this nation of 12 million people. The vice president said he was encouraged, by the "de termination and dedication of President Diem and by his fine grasp of all problems that confront freedom." From the presidential pal ace, Johnson drove to the Cercel Hippique club and re ported the results of his con ference with the president to a large group from the Amer ican community. In his speech to the assem bly, Johnson declared: "We shall back your efforts, we shall stand with you. : "We will stand with you because of our respect and affection and trust for you. To Mother ... With Love But in the highest sense, we will stand with you because of your profound sense of re sponsibility to the cause of universal freedom." A Communist Chinese broadcast monitored in Tokyo accused Johnson of going to Saigon with . "fresh plots of intervention and aggression against Viet Nam."

W Aid To Forces Johnson's words were cheer ing to the South Vietnamese who have been beset by Com munist guerrilla warfare that takes hundreds of lives each month. . Johnson said the new Amer ican aid would allow a "sub stantial increase" in the South Viet Nam military. South Viet Nam now has a well trained fighting force of 150, 000 arid it was believed an other 20,000 would be added. Crash Kills Eugene Man; Another Lost - Eugene - CUPD - Henry J.
