Tribune Medford United Tresi International Full Leased Wire United Pros Intenulional Full Leased Wire Section A 64 Pages MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, JULY 8, 1962 Six Sections No. 93 57th Year GOP Adopts List 01 10 Principles At Bend Meeting Hatfield Praises Action of Group Bend, Ore. -(UPC- The Ore gon Republican convention adapted a broad, ten - point statement of principles here Saturday which drew praise from Governor Mark Hatfield and other Oregon GOP lead- The vote to adopt the one page document was 130 to 6. It will be filed, by law, with the secretary of state's office within five days. The statement adopted was virtually the same as a draft proposed by the Republican party growth committee that had been working on the statement for the past several months. A dozen or more at tempts to make minor chang es from the floor were beaten down by the delegates. The words "and social" were inserted into the tenth item. They made it read Ore gon Republicans believe that "attempting to solve our eco nomic and social problems through give-away programs destroys individual initiative, self-reliance and tends to cor rupt the moral fibre of the nation." Main Architect At the same time, the main architect of the statement, Robert C. Ingalls, Corvallis, charged that the Democratic state convention in Salem Tuesday and Wednesday fail ed to follow the law. The 1961 law which ordered con vening of both GOP and Dem ocratic conventions called for a "statement of principles" from each party. Ingalls said the Democrats adopted a party platform in stead, y The main theme of "the GOP statement is belief in a limited form of government while at the same time pro vision for adequate aid for the aged, ill, unemployed and needy to restore them to pro ductive citizenship. Hatfield said he was pleas ed that the principles set out were broad, since the GOP contains "many points of view." a situation, he added, which is good. Delegation Objected The entire Douglas county delegation objected to the statement as drawn, contend ing two of the items contra dicted one another. One calls for aid to the aged and the second one criticizes "give away programs." But state Rep. John Deilen back. Medford, called them "strongly affirmative'' and not contradictory. He got a big hand. The Republicans, meeting in convention for the first time in more than 54 years, also reelected state officers and approved a $95,913 budg et. Returned to office by unan imous vote by the GOP state central committee were Phil Roth, Portland, chairman; Mrs. Forrest Hedges, Grants Pass, secretary; and Joseph Burns. Hermiston, treasurer. A fight developed over vice chairman between incumbent Mrs. Helen Daughtrey, Port land, and Mrs. Delia Camp bell. Salem, with Mrs. Camp bell, wife of a physician, de feating Mrs. Daughtrey on the third ballot 29-11. They were tied 20-20 on the first two ballots.

India -OIPIU The wreckage of an Alitalia DC8 jetliner that crashed with 94 persons aboard was found last night in a thick forest 100 miles northeast of Bombay with no sign of survivors, po lice reported today. Only one body was found at the crash site on a small hill in the forest in the west ern Ghats mountain range, which runs down the west coast of India. Traffic Increase Noted on Highway O'Brien - Southbound traf fic through the Redwood Highway California Quaran tine station on Highway 199 south of here increased by more than 35 per cent last month over June, 1961. The June. 1962 total was 27,597 vehicles as compared with 20.320 during the same month last years. A recent count of both south and northbound traf fic, made by the California Division of Hhigways during a 24-hour period, recorded a total of 4.350 vehicles, indi cating that twice as many cars traveled northbound on Hign- way 199 that day than those going southbound. North' bound traffic is not tallied at the quarantine station. A certain number of regu lar commuters, including lo cal vehicles and construction trucks, were not included in the June southbound traffic figures. If this local traffic were included, it would boost the total by an estimated 3, 000 to 3,500 per month. An estimated 45,000 south bound vehicles are expected to pass through the station in July. This month and August are considered to be the months when most vacations are taken.

OLCC agents tUPI) A police search party re turned to the town of Junnar, 25 miles west of the crash site, and reported heavy rain storms had made the forest swampy and almost inacces sible. The storm had been batter ing the area early yesterday when the plane, on a flight from Sydney, Australia, to Rome, was approaching Bom bay for a landing. Junnar Is in the same area as Khed, where earlier uncon firmed reports said the crash took place. Yet another report had placed the crasn sue at Khapoli, 80 miles southeast of Bombay. No Americans were aboard the plane. The plane, with one of It aly's most experienced pilots at the controls, vanished only minutes before it was to land in a heavy rainstorm. Last radio contact was at 4.000 feet over Aurangabad, 175 miles northeast of Bombay. Keep Clear The weather worsened then and the airport declared a "red alert" three hours later. A Mideast Airlines Comet jet airliner due to land 20 min utes after the Alitalia plane was told to keep clear and to circle the area. Later the Comet was per mitted to land when its fuel ran low. The missing Douglas pet disappeared in a region where 13 American journalists were killed in a plane crash almost 13 years ago in almost iden tical circumstances. That plane, a Dutch KLM Constel lation, also fell in a monsoon rain. While Indian navy planes searched the sea and air force planes and helicopters criss crossed the Bombay area in a search for the Italian plane, an air force Canberra jet on a routine crosscountry flight also crashed in the torrential rains. Its wreckage was found about 175 miles from Bom bay. The Alitalia plane was scheduled to land at Bombay' Santa Cruz airport at 12:05 a.m. (2:35 p.m. EDT Friday).

Snider late Friday afternoon vetoed a variance granted by the city council Thursday night which would have per mitted the construction of a sign at the entrance to Sis kiyou Memorial Park, 605 Highland dr. Lew Miles, proprietor of Siskiyou Memorial Park, had reauested the variance in or der . to erect a 3 by 7 loot illuminated advertising sign. By city ordinance, signs of that type are not permitted in single-family residential zones. Though a council commit tee had recommended against granting the variance, the full council voted by a 4 to 3 margin to allow the sign at its meeting Thursday night. In vetoeing the measure, Mayor Snider said in part: 'In my opinion, advertis ing signs are not a proper use in residential districts, I be lieve that a sign such as the one contemplated by this var iance would be inconsistent with the character of the sur rounding residential area and would not be in keeping with the purpose and intent of the zoning ordinance. "Further, I do not believe that a sign of this type would be consistent with either of the two previous variances under which Siskiyou Memo rial Park is now operating. I can appreciate the wish of the property owner to use this location for advertising purposes, but in my opinion this is not sufficient reason to jeopardize the interests of the other property owners !n this section of the city." The city planning commis sion had earlier recommend ed against granting the vari ance. Miles then appealed the matter to the city council.

S. attempt to explode rocket-borne nuclear device high above Johnston island was delayed 24 hours Sat urday in the fourth such postponement this week. Unsuitable weather was blamed for the postpone ment until 11 p.m. Sunday (S a.m. Monday EDT). Nevada Test Site -(UPP- The first above - ground nuclear test over the continental Unit ed States since the world's powers placed a moratorium on atomic testing four years ago was conducted Saturday by the Atomic Energy com mission and the Department of Ddfense. A small white cloud formed over the test site following an almost instantaneous flash as the low yield nuclear weap on effect test was carried out just several feet above the ground. The cloud resulting from the detonation rose to an al titude of about 8,000 feet and drifted toward the north, dis Isipating rapidly. Authorities expected the re sulting radiation levels over . inhabited areas surrounding the test site would be so low they would be detectable only with sensitive Instruments. Friday's big below-ground shot here was more spectacu lar in appearance. The cloud formed by Saturday's shot was not of the mushroom type associated with atomic tests, and it was not dirty as was the case Friday. Four tanks on flatbed trucks were seen heading into the test area Saturday morn ing before the explosion, in dicating nuclear warfare test maneuvers by the military would be conducted in con nection with future tests. Newsmen were not permit ted on the test site and wit nessed the detonation from a vantage point about 50 miles away. Haze obscured vision of the site somewhat, making it difficult to see how extensive the flash from the detonation was. A second shot that had been scheduled for Saturday but later postponed was delayed for at least another 24 hours. New County Roads Resolution Signed A resolution on improve ment or repair of county roads which establishes a new policy was signed by the Jackson county court Friday. Effective Juluy 1 all Im provements and repairs per formed by the Jackson coun ty road department on pub lic roads will be charged to the abutting properties to comply with state law, t h e county court decided. The resolution stated tnat no changes have been made on the amounts charged for improvement of public roads in recent years. "It is the feeling of the county court that the amounts charged for Improvement and repairs are far below the actual cost to the county," the cuiinty court said. "State law requires that no county funds shall be expend ed in improvement or repair of county roads," the court explained. GROUPS TO MEET Washington - 1TP - Labor Secretary Arthur J.

Employment Rise In Rogue Valley Noted By Office Employment is rising in the Rogue valley, including a good percentage of employ ment of students, according to John J.

Al though not all the students have found jobs, there Is a continuing number of requests labeled specifically of stu dents help. New hiring is con tinuing at a good pace, added. . One of the biggest demands at this time, is for help in fruit thinning, due to a fair ly heavy crop. This work will continue in many orchards al - most until picking begins, es timated to be the middle of August. Later, for picking, the iruit work win not De suitable for women and youth, Patton noted.

Kept Closed The coffin was kept closed, a relative said, ex cept for a moment when two Negroes who had been life - long servants of the Faulkner family were granted their request to view the body. A police man was posted in Cedar Grove outside the house to stop any intruders during the service in the ante-bellum Faulkner home. The brief graveside serv ice was conducted in 95 degree heat. Faulkner was buried on a hillside under two water oaks. "A man that Is born of woman, hath but a short Blair Named To Welfare Group Mrs. Davis S.

Duncan Gray Jr. read from the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer. His burial in this little community that failed to understand him even in death was in accordance with his own wishes. Once Said Speaking of his native land and himself, he once said: "He was born of it and his bones will sleep in it." But Saturday, as usual the town of Oxford, a community of 8,000 that Faulkner made famous as "Jefferson" in his fiction alized "Yochnapatawpha" county, went on without him.- The square was jammed with trucks and farmers who had come to town to shop, sell produce and gos sip. But little of the talk concerned Faulkner. In late years townspeople had come to look upon the man that many hailed as one of the greatest talents of 20th century as just somewhat of a "character." This was a less harsh Judg ment than their original reaction that he was "no account." Most of mankind thought differently.

Pulitzer prize - winning noveliest John Hershey summed up the feeling of many of Faukner's fellow writers. - has M. "He never compromised. to I Hershey said, "not or mon- I ey, not for popularity, not for an easy audience." . Faulkner himself once explained his work was mo tivated "not for glory, and least of all not for profit but to create out of the human spirit something which did not exist before." The extent to which he succeeded was evidenced Saturday by the carloads of flowers that admirers sent to adorn his grave. Oregon (Oregon State Highway Commission Photo)
