Political Roundup Belle To 'Aid' Livingston; Durno Raps Medical Plan By United Praia Intarnational Belle, the famous Portland elephant mother, has made political news. One of the six candidates for the Republican nomina tion for U. S. senator, Dr. Harold Livingston of Corval lis, said he was offering the post of honorary campaign chairman to Belle. He visited the Portland Zoo Wednesday and said, "Belle and I have much in common. Both of us like peanuts; in fact, I am running on peanuts." Long Wait for EUphants "Belle and Oregon waited for a long time for the birth of Packy," he said. "Our Re publican elephant too has waited for a long time to give birth to a candidate who can match Sen. Wayne Morse on the platform as well as iiPi pulling independent voters in Oregon." He said he was that candidate Livingston told t h e Ex change club In Albany today that what America needs now is "not a New Frontier but a True Frontier." He charged that more than 700 agencies of Federal government have more than 47,000 publicists "whose job is to 'sell' more federal services to the people." CAT'S 'Mandarin Jet' Is Richly Decorated O By ROBERT J. SERLING UPI Aviation Editor Washington - IUPII - Nut too Jong ago, a U.S. airline offi cial came back from the Ori ent and committed the, ulti mate sin for any airline of ficial. He raved about another car rier's plane. "I've never seen an aircraft cabin interior like it," he mar veled. "It's got anything In this country beat a mile." The airliner In question was a Convair 8S0 jetliner, oper ated by Civil Air Transport (CAT) - the Formosa based airline founded by the late Gen. Claire Chennault of Fly ing Tiger fame. CAT'S Convair is dubbed the "Mandarin Jet." And its unique Interior has impress ed more people than just the aforementioned official The predominant color Is brushed gold. The seats are a deep black threaded "with sil ver and gold. Above the win dows, splashed in rich colors of Chinese black, red and pea cock blue, is a series of mur als depicting the story of Con fucius' travels. There are nine central fig ures in the procession rang ing from a two - wheel cart to flag and pike - carrying Oriental knights. Chinas Dacor The cabin bulkheads are decorated with authentically- styled moon-gates, dragons, li on-knobs and a Chinese Phoe nix. The jet's exterior is only slightly less colorful. The big plane is painted in CAT s tra ditlonal colors of beige, ail ver snd gold with a five-toed Dragon emblazoned on the front end of the fuselage just under the cockpit windows. -The Interior of this flying Oriental palace is so unusu al that when the 880 was be ing built, Convair employees kept sneaking over to the as sembly line to see if it was true. The "Mandarin Jet" In a sense has kept faith with Chennault's dreams, plans and hopes for the struggling air line that was born Oct. 25 1046. That was the date Chennault signed a contract with the China National Re lief and Rehabilitation admin istration for the job of air lifting food, clothing and med ical supplies into war-weary China. In those days, Chennault's baby airline was called CNR- RA Air Transport but was later reorganized under the name Civil Air Transport. The postwar revolution forced CAT to evacuate 30 bases on the mainland before reach ing Taiwan (Formosa) early in 1950. Today, CAT is the official ly-designatcd airline for the Republic of China, with a pay roll of 3,000 and serving sev en countries in the Orient. Its flight crews are both Amer ican and Chinese. Plant Hormone May Control Blossoming Washington - IUPII - A plant hormone that can make the cocklebur bloom out of sea son and which may be the trigger for blossoming many varieties of plants, was de scribed at the annual meeting of the American Chemical So ciety. Dr. Darwin L. Mayfleld, of Long Beach college, said availability of the hormone named florigen may al low growers to lime produc tion of plants and prevent flowering in crops grown sole ly for their leaves or stalks. The California scientist' said the hormone has been con centrated from an extract of the cocklebur plant. The world's motorists wear rubber off their tires at a rale of 2 billion pounds a year, according to the Good year Tire V Rubber Co. "Government by propagan da is a characleristic of a po lice stale rather than a free society, and objective report ing is not the purpose of a publicist," he said. Rep. Edwin R. Durno, an other OOP senatorial hopeful, campaigned today in the Portland-Oregon City area. Jim Bacaloff, another candidate, was on a tour of the state he said would take him to 19 jfies. Durno said In Salem Wed nesday night President Ken nedy's medical care for Ihe aged plan is a "bad, bad Pill, irrespective of Ihe concept of Social Security." The Republican senate can didate said the Kgig-Ander-son bill is "not health insur ance"but "liltjo more than a contract between the govern ment and certain hospitals." He spoke to young Republi cans at Willamette University. Greater Ambition Durno told some 22 per sons at a Portland breakfast meeting today he was "out to change the idea that Sen. Morse can't be beaten." Dur no, who defeated Charles O. Porter in 1960, said he had eliminated "one piece of dtd wood frrim the halls of Con gress and now has greater am bition." He said Oregon gets those things which are left over after Sen. Warren G. Magnu son (D-Wash.) has taken care of his own state but at that "Magnuson has done better by us than the two incumbent Oregon senators." He said he had no quarrel with defense spending but criticized the "massive social schemes of the present ad ministration." Robert Duncan of Medford, candidate for the Democratic nomination to Congress in the fourth district flew to Wash ington, D.C., today to partic ipate in a two-day session of the President's Advisory Commission Intergovernment al Relations. He is the lone member of the commission from Oregon. Porter Endorsed Charles O.

Crotty, president of the Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees. Democrat Robert Y.

Buel of Tillamook, has been named editor of the Daily Emerald, University of Ore gon student newspaper. He will assume duties in the fall. Buel is a junior majoring in journalism. Wallace, former state ama teur boxing champion, and state Sen. Ryan deGraffen. ried, 37, apparently out-distanced tlae six-foot, eight-inch Folsom, who sought an un precedented third term. A board meets in Mont gomery Friday for an official count of the ballots in the Democratic primary. A late count showed Wal lace had 201,494 votes with all but 200 of the state's 3,432 precinct reporting. DeGraffen ried had 157,120 votes to 154,602 for Folsom, one of the South's most colorful cam paigners. Wallace, a 150-pounder who likes to be called "The Little Judge," once promised to go to jail if necessary to shield the state from court-ordered integration. DeGraffenried, hand some scion of a politically promi nent Alabama family, sounded a call for fresh, young leader ship to stimulate industry, improve schools and get the farmer out of the cost-price pinch. Folsom, who tells voters "You let me grind up the ham and I'll see that you get the gravy," traveled throughout the stale with his hillbilly band called "The Meat Grind ers. . . But he apparently did not draw as much support from rural areas as he did in his two previous races. Wallace, who drove a dumn truck during the Depression, was a strong runnerun to Gov. John Patterson in 1958. Pat terson, who did not back a candidate in the Drimarv. can. not succeed himself.
