Khrushchev Admits
Shortages Caused
Food Price Hikes
Moscow - flJPP - Premier
Nikita S. Khrushchev ap
pealed Saturday night to the
Soviet people for understand

prices' sharply on meat Rnd
butteri He said if the itep
had not been taken there
would be meat linos tomor
row. "There was nn other way
out," he said ' in' a ' speech
broadcast to the nation over
Moscow radio. He said there
was a shortage of meat and
butter and that drastic measures-
were necessary to sup
ply the country's needs.
The premier's speech was
reminiscent of the appeals
made to the Russian people
during World War II to make
sacrifices for the good of the
nation. It also recalled the
announcement of the rcsump-
Power Pole Eire
Causes Outage
' Homes in Central Point,
Sams Valley and part of the
northwest portion of Medford
were without electric power
for between five and 14 min
utes Saturday night. The pow
er outage was caused indirect
ly by a power pole fire.
Fire broke out at 6:56 p.m.
on the pole, located at Ehr
man way and Highway 99
north, and burned through it.
Medford firemen put out the
fire and stayed at the scene
a little over an hour.
A Pacific Power and Light
company representative ex
plained that company crews
switched off power to the
Central Point, Sams Valley
and northwest Medford area
in order to avoid a more ex
tensive power outage, then re
stored service through other
sources.
Neither firemen nor PP&L
officials were immediately
certain what caused the fire.
It broke out at a point on the
pole about 30 feet off the
ground.

stressed that although many
people might not understand
the decision, it was a ques

Appreciated Approach
One Russian told a West
ern reporter he and ,his
friends appreciated most of
all the straightforward ap
proach'. "Usually they1 say every
thing is paradise, but when
we go to the store we would
find the prices' had been
raised without any notice," he
said. "This time, at least, peo

truth."

To Be Published
His speech was broadcast
with only a few minutes
prior announcement, and it
seemed likely that many
missed it. However, it was
expected to be 'published in
all the newspapers today.
One Russian who heard it
said: "It was a very frank
speech, and we appreciate it."
Khrushchev said funds
could not be diverted from
defense and that only a raise
in prices could provide the
money necessary to boost the
nation's Ogricultural produc
tion to required levels. He
added that there could be no
wage boosts to accompany the
price rises.

OREGON, SUNDAY, JUNE
Atomic Sub Fires
Polaris Missiles,
Scores Bullseyes
Atlantic Range
Site of Tests
Cape Canaveral -fUPP- The
atomic submarine USS Thom
as Edison fired two Polaris
missiles from the depths of
the Atlantic Saturday and
both scored bullseyes on 1,-
500-mile test shots down the
Atlantic missile range.
It meant four successes in
a row for the Edison, Ameri
ca's eighth nuclear submarine.
The sub has now completed
its missile training and will
make a final shakedown
cruise before joining seven
other Polaris-armed subs on
station.
The first Polaris was
launched Saturday at 2:17
p.m. EST and the second at
5:36 p.m. EST.
The Defense department,
continuing its policy of treat
ing underwater firings of the
Polaris as secret, made no an
nouncement of cither test.
Both missiles could be seen
from the Florida coast streak
ing through the azure blue
sky into layers of wind-blown
clouds.
The sleek, 410-foot Thomas
Edison was cruising about 50
miles off shore about 50 feet
below the water's surface for
both shots. After bursting
from the ocean's surface, the
bottle-shaped, two-stage mis
siles traced their course with
white trails in the sky.
The launchings came only
hours after the U. S. Pacific
fleet disclosed that Russisn
nuclear submarines are oper
ating in Pacific waters. The
United States plans to beef
up its nuclear sub fleet to 41
vessels in the next five years.
The S100 million Edison,
launched nearly a year ago,
will become operational after
a short shakedown ciuise. It
will pick up its 16 nuclear
tipped "live" Polaris missiles
at Charleston, S. C. Navy yard
at the tall end of the cruise.
