"superficial attention and cur

ures. The delegates, mostly citi
zens, who filled the house of
representatives, listened at
tentively to the governor's
appeal.
Disbelief Expressed
Hatfield said many people
had already expressed "dis
belief that the legislature
could be so amiss on traffic
safety legislation."
The ' governor's ' dramatic
pleas last year for a three,
law package to combat reck.
less and drunk driving failed
to win passage.
Hatfield asked public sup
port in his continued fight to
win these measures:
- Arrest for probable cause,
instead of requiring an officer
to witness an accident.
Implied consent for chem
ical liquor tests. The law now
requires written consent, and
Kennedy Endorses
Federal Judge Bill
Washington -(WD- President
Kennedy today signed a bill
giving him authority to ap
point 73 new federal judges to
help tackle the pile-up of legal
cases which has snarled U. S.
Circuit and District courts.
- In addition to helping fed
eral courts catch up with their
work, the new law gives Ken
nedy a huge block of political
ly potent patronage to distrib
ute.
Federal judgeships are par
ticularly highly regarded be
cause they are for lifetime
tenure. The 10 new circuit
judgeships pay $25,000 a year
each; the 63 district judge

"I shall not quit this fight

Without passage of sound
laws, Hatfield said, law en
forcement agencies are pre
vented from acting firmly,
and "no feat of highway con
struction can make us safe
from drunk and reckless driv
ers." , ;
Hatfield told the confer
ence it must seek to build "an
aroused public opinion with
a determination to act to end
highway deaths. ;.

Notable Results
Not Expected;
EuropeConcerned
London -AM- America's at
lies around the world ex
pressed guarded approval to
day of the idea of a meeting
between President Kennedy
and Premier Niklta Khrush
chev but warned against any
expectation that it would pro
duce notable results.
Russia and its satellites
were expected also to wel
come the idea on the theory
that the Communist world
had nothing to lose and might
perhaps gain something from
such a meeting.
U.S. allies in Europe were
publicly optimistic about the
Kennedy-Khrushchev talks,
but expressed private concern
over the possibility that they
would be bypassed In "big
two" dealings with world af
fairs. French President Charles
de Gaulle, who believes he is
entitled to a decisive share in
shaping Western policy, was
believed to be cool to the idea
of the meeting. Observers in
Paris believed, however, that
de Gaulle might be pacified
by the fact that Kennedy will
see him before meeting
Khrushchev.
Allied officials in Geneva
and at Atlantic Pact head
quarters in Paris were appre
hensive about the possibility
that a Kennedy-Khrushchev
meeting would lead to similar
individual approaches to the
Kremlin by other Western
leaders, giving the Russians a
chance to undermine Western
unity.
Most sources said a Big Two
meeting might smooth East

that no concrete settlement of
major issues was likely to re

Ashland Reacts
Favorably To
Daylight Time
(Continued from Page 1)
Ted Rogers, an Illinois Val
ley service station operator,
suggested advertising in Med-
ford and Grants Pass news
papers that the Illinois Valley
stores would sta? open longer.
The retail traaes committee
and the board of directors of
the Ashland Chamber of
Commerce yesterday discus
sed the proposal, and ex
pressed general favorable re
action to going on daylight
time.
One Dissenting Vole
Chamber President Archie
Fries, Jr., said there was one
dissenting vote among those
expressing their opinions at
the meeting, which was at
tended by about 22 persons.
. Fries said yesterday "What
else can we do with Medford
on one side and Yreka on the
other, and both of them on
daylight time."
There was some indication
that Ashland may attempt to
go on daylight time. City Su
perintendent Elmer Biegel
said yesterday it was done
once before, and said a spe
cial council meeting would be
called as soon t.s possible to
make a decision.
Biegel indicated this morn
ing that the Ashland council
probably would discuss chang
lng the hours of city employ
ees. He noted that any change
would not affect operation of
the city government in any
way.
Taking the Blame
The state legislature ap
pears to be taking the blame
for the time contusion from
many circles.
Mayor Banks of Cave Junc
tion said "just because the
legislature favored five coun
ties and went against a popu
lar vote is no reason why we
should adopt fast time."
Many southern Oregon resi
dents apparently feel their
voting privilege has been vio
lated by the Oregon legisla
ture by allowing Multnomah
and four other northern Ore
gon counties to adopt day
light saving time.
There have been grumblings
In the Ashland area about the
time confusion, most of it di
rected toward the legislature
for creating the situation.
But one thing appeared
sure: Robert Corbin, district
manager of the Oregon-California
Theaters here, said so
far as he knows, there is noth
ing that can be done about

See Korean President
In line with this, Lt. Gen.
Carter B. Magruder, com
mander of U.S. and United
Nations troops in Korea, and
Marshall Green, senior offi
cer at the U.S. Embassy in
Seoul, made a futile attempt
to sidetrack the revolt in a
meeting with Korean Presi
dent Posun Yung on the day
the coup started.
The Korean president met
with them for three hours
after a small group of army
generals and colonels seized
the capital Tuesday. .
At this stage the coup
could have gone either way.
Outside Seoul the bulk of
army commanders still were
neutral. They would not join
the rebels. Nor would they
launch bloody civil war by
attacking them.
President Yung wanted to
know which way the United
States stood. Green and Ma
gruder told him -they were
strongly opposed to settling
Korea's problems by non-constitutional
means, that this
could set a pattern for coup
after coup in the years ahead.
The President said the re
gime of Premier John M.
Chang, one of his oldest poli
tical foes, was corrupt and
needed throwing out, that the
rebels had a good platform

and that he might 'support
them.
He conceded it would be
better to use legislative
means. When they left, the
Americans thought they might
have talked him out of back
ing the rebels, but Thursday
he did.
Magruder and Green also
conferred during this period
with the deposed Premier
Chang-by telephone. The pre
mier went into hiding when
the generals first struck. The
Americans did not know
where he was, but they knew
how to contact him.
They tried to persuade Pre
mier Chang to come out in
the open, take a strong stand
for lawful government and
rally the uncommitted gen
erals to his cause. Chang
never did.
When the coup first began
the rebels, hoping to gain
support, spread the word that
the United States backed the
revolt.
Controversial Statements
This was one reason that
Green' and Magruder a few
hours later made their now
controversial statements that
the United States supported
the elected government and
that Korean generals should
reverse the coup.
