MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, AUGUST
Britain Orders
Deportation 01
Dr. Robert Soblen
Delay Foreseen In
Execution Of Order
London -ll'Pn- The British
government Saturday night
ordered fugitive Soviet spy
Dr. Robert A. Soblen deport
ed but said the order could
not be enforced for at least
"a few days."
The British home office did
not explain the delay. But its
action lent support to state
ments by Soblen's attorneys
that the government would
not enforce the deportation
order until its validity can be
tested in court.
Soblen's chief British attor
ney, Solomon Kaufman, an
nounced he would challenge
the deportation order shortly
after it was issued. He said
the Soblen legal team already
has made preliminary moves
to bring the appeal before a
judge.
Wartime Espionage
Kaufman said the 61-year-old
psychiatrist, who faces a
life sentence in the United
States for wartime espionage,
has asked the home office to
investigate this "alleged of
fense," indicating that Soblen
may attempt to have his en
tire case reviewed in the Brit
ish courts a time-consuming
process.
The government issued the
deportation order after Israel
balked at flying Soblen back
to the United States on one
of its El Al airliners.
Kaufman said Soblen still
insists he is innocent of spy
charges.
The government's order at
least ended one phase of the
Soblen case the diplomatic
tug-of-war staged between
Britain and Israel over the
convicted spy that has strain
ed relations between the two
countries.
Britain had insisted that the
Israeli Airlines, El Al, con
tinue Soblen on his flight to
the U. S. The airline, with
the backing of the Israeli cab
inet, has been just as insistent
that somebody else do the job.

District Attorney Alan B.
Holmes said the appearances,

day, were changed to Wed
nesday because the attorney
for the men will be out of
town tomorrow.
The men have been arraign
ed on a charge of willfully
and maliciously setting fire to
forest land. They were named
in grand jury secret indict
ments returned July 30.
The district attorney re
minded Friday that at least
one more arrest was expected
in connection with the grand
jury investigation of approxi
mately 12 road-side fires in
Josephine and Jackson coun
ties July 16.
In an earlier statement, the
two suspects denied any impli
cation in the fires. They said,
through attorney Robert A.
Boycr, that "they had no idea
what circumstances may have
indicated that they were in
volved, but that they intend
ed to clear the matter up just
as soon as possible."

Committee Joins
Morse In Stand
On Telstar Bill
Portland. OJPD - The execu
tive committee of the West
ern States Democratic confer
ence today threw its weight
behind Sen. Wayne Morse (D
Ore.) in urging a delay in ac
tion on the communications
satellite bill.
"We request postponement
of congressional consideration
of Telstar bill for several
months to allow full hearing
and resolution of issues
raised," the Western Demo
cratic leaders said in a state
ment issued here.

as Sen. Russell Long (D-La.)
launched what he said would
be an all-day speech in the
Senate against the Kennedy
administration bill. The meas
ure would set up a privately-
owned, government-regulated
communications satellite cor
poration. Reflected Canvass

long distance canvass of mem
bers of the WSDC executive
committee by member Herb
Legg, Washington Democratic
Chairman. Legg said he con
ducted the poll in the absence
of committee chairman C.
Girard Davidson, Oregon na
tional committeeman, who is
in the east.
WSDC Executive Secretary
Sylvia Ncmer, who released
the statement, said it repre
sented a majority of the com
mittee. r . . .
The committee said it dtv
cided to state its position be-
cause of misinterpretation of
the recent WSDC meeting nt
Seattle. At that time. Demo
cratic leaders from 13 states
attending the conference de
clined to act on a proposed
resolution calling for delay.

Nikolayev May
Stay Up 3 Days
Moscow - (UPD - Soviet Cosmonaut Andrian Nikolayev
awoke from a sleep of more than seven hours today and
continued his 18,000-mile per hour orbital flight toward
a new space record, Moscow Radio reported.
It was believed that the 32-year-old former lumberjack
may stay in space for three days or more, breaking the
25 hour flight record of his Soviet predecessor. By the time
he awoke at 5 a.m. Moscow time (10 p.m. EDT Saturday),
he had completed more than 12 circuits of the earth and
covered more than 310,886 miles, the radio said.
A later broadcast said the spaceman had completed 13
orbits by 7 a.m. Moscow time (midnight EDT).
Instruments showed his sleep was quiet and his breath
ing even, the radio said. He did some calisthenics in his
cabin and ate a light breakfast, his fourth meal of the flight,
it reported.
There was speculation that the Russians planned to
launch another spaceman while Nikolayev still circled the
earth.

Moscow Radio said the as
tronaut, who chatted y radio
with Premier Nlkita Khrush
chev and was watched by mil
lions of Soviet television
viewers Saturday, was in
t;ood condition more than 17
hours after his Vostok III
spaceship was hurtled aloft.
Flight program
The night - time sleep in
space was in accordance with
the flight program, the Sovl
et Tass News Agency report
ed. "During this, the operation
of the Instruments on board
ship and control over their
functioning was carried out
automatically," it said. "At
the. name ume, the state ot
health ot the cosmonaut wai
checked. He Is feeling well,
everything is normal on board
and he started fulfilling the
program of research planned
for the second day."
Russians watching televi
sion transmissions from the
spaceship'. Saturday were
treated to the sight of Niko
layev moving weightlessly in
space. Occasionally an object
in his space capsule, such as
a pencil, would float around
free of gravity and the space
man would reach out and
grab it.
Soviet scientists said there
was no mechanical reason
why Nikolayev, a former lum
berjack, could not remain in
orbit for 10 days or more
a feat far surpassing the en
durance record for manned
space craft. This also would
be a giant step toward land
ing a man on the moon.
