Talks on Test Ban
Appear Close To
Total Breakdown
Geneva -IUPII- The nuclear
lest ban negotiations appear
ed close to a total breakdown
today.
The neutral participants at
the 17-nation disarmament
conference, alarmed at bitter
statements by the United
States and Russia Tuesday,
were reported ready to ap
peal to - oth East and West
lor immediate concessions.
The conference scheduled
another special session this
morning for further examina
tion of the deadlock.
Obstruction Charged
U.S. Ambassador Arthur
H. Dean charged the Soviet
Union Tuesday with deliber
ately obstructing conclusion
of a workable treaty banning
all nuclear tests. He said So
viet rejection fo modified
U.S. proposals showed that
Moscow is "doing all it pos
sibly can" to prevent a
treaty.
Soviet Deputy Foreign Min
ister Vastly Kuznetsov counter-charged
that American re
luctance to sign a treaty lay
behind the deadlock. He said
the latest U.S. proposals were
"an ultimatum-like demand"
which did not alter Moscow's
opposition to international
controls of a test ban.
The new U.S. initiative in
troduced by Dean last week
calls for a substantial reduc
tion in the number of on-site
inspections while retaining
the .-rinciple of international
supervision. Russia claims
that international participa
tion would be tantamount to
espionage.
Neutrals Pressing
The statements by Dean
and Kuznetsov Tuesday were,
in effect, charges and counter
charges that each thought the
other had acted in bad faith
during the negotiations.
The eight neutrals have
been pressing both sides for
speedy agreement on the
testing issue. They say the
delay in nuclear accord is
holding up progress on all
aspects of the disarmament
conference.
Satellite Bill
Opponents Turn
To Civil Rights
Washington -IUP1I- Oppon
ents of the administration's
space communications bill
gathered today for a last-ditch
rally under the familiar bi
partisan banner of civil rights.
But they had little hope of
blocking the bill's passage,
perhaps by tonight.
Their issue, selected from a
bundle of more than 150
amendments, was a proposal
to bar racial or religious dis
crimination in the hiring of

Churchill Denies
Opposition To
Common Market
London - (UPL - Sir Winston
Churchill, 87, issued a denial
from his hospital bed to Vis
count Field Marshal Mont
gomery's statement that the
former prime minister op
poses Britain's membership in
the European Common Mar
ket. Montgomery spent 40
minutes in Churchill's hospital
room Tuesday and emerged to
tell reporters:
"He was sitting up in bed
smoking a cigar, shouting for
more brandy and protesting
against Britain's proposed
entry into the Common Mar
ket." Letter Released
A few hours later. Churchill
heard a radio newscaster re
port Montgomery's statement.
He immediately ordered his
secretary, Anthony Montague
Browne, to release for the
first time a letter containing
his views on the Common
Market he sent to the Con
servative party chairman of
his constituency last year.
There was no other state
ment beyond the letter. But
that note made it plain that
Churchill considers himself a
father of the idea of European
unity and a vigorous cam
paigner of British member
ship, provided that common
wealth interests are protect
ed.
Montgomery, a leading op
ponent of British membership
in the Common Market, was
unavailable for comment on
Churchill's letter - the first
public stand the old warrior
has taken for or against the
membership.
Grazing Fee
Increase Urged
Portland-OIPIUA 16-ccnt in
crease in user fees for public
grazing land has been recom
mended to the Bureau of Land
Management by the State Ad
visory Board for Public Land
Management.
The advisory board makes
recommendations for 13 mil
lion acres of public land un
der the management of the
bureau in Oregon.
The board said it would rec
ommend an increase from 19
cents per animal-unit month
to 35 cents per animal-unit
measure to another talkathon month. An animal-unit is the
employees by the proposed
communications satellite cor
poration. Leaders Stand Firm
But Democratic and Repub
lican floor leaders stood firm
in their determination to kill
any amendments. To change
the bill and force it to a
House-Senate conference com
mittee, they explained, would
expose the long - filibustered
I Beauties Prepare For Preliminaries
Summer Students
At University
Totaled 3,510
Eugene - Enrollment in
the University of Oregon sum
mer sessions stood at 3.570 on
Aug. 8, and Dean Paul B. Ja
cobson, summer sessions di
rector, estimates the final en
rollment will be about 3,600.
This compares to 3,220 who
were enrolled in the univer
sity summer sessions last year.
In addition there are many
students attending courses as
auditors, but not receiving col
lege credit. During the sum
mer there are also several
conferences and workshops
sponsored by the summer ses
sions, increasing the number
of persons on the campus.
The enrollment includes
about 80 persons enrolled at
the Oregon Institute of Ma
rine Biology on the Oregon
coast, and about the same
number enrolled at the Uni
versity of Oregon Second
Level French Institute at
Tours, France.
Those attending conferences
on the campus include about
400 high school leaders at
tending the Student Council
Workshop, which began Mon
day with 50 advisors. The
workshop is carried on jointly
with the Oregon Association
of Secondary School Princi
pals, and continues for two
sessions of one week each.
Music Sessions
There were also 250 high
school students on campus for
a two-week instrumental mu
sic session and about 75 for a
two-week chorus and orches
tra session,
The total number of faculty
members employed during the
summer session is 277, Dean
Jacobson reported. Of these,
87 are from other institutions
and 190 are from the Univer
sity faculty.
For the first time in the
history of the university, a
special summer session, com
mencement was held Aug. 11.
There were 403 candidates for
degrees at that commence
ment, most of them at the
graduate level.
Dean Jacobson, who is dean
of the university school of
education, was first in charge
of the summer session in 1948,
when enrollment was 2,009. In
that year the summer session
budget was $94,000 and he
reported that the budget for
this year is approximately
$400,000.
late in the session
Seven filibuster-bloc amend
ments were tabled by over
whelming votes in rapid order
Tuesday after the Senate, for
only the fifth time in its his
tory, adopted a gag on debate.
It voted 63 to 27 - three
more than the required two
thirds - to apply cloture or
debate limitation to choke off
the filibuster. This meant
each senator could speak only
one more hour on the bill.
The anti - discrimination
amendment was offered by
Sens. Joseph S. Clark (D-Pa.)
and Wayne Morse (D-Ore.).
Sen. Paul H. Douglas (D-II1.),
supporting their move, warn
ed fellow Democrats that a
vole against it would be a "re
pudiation of the Democratic
party platform."
Urged Not To Table
Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R
N.Y.) urged senators not to
table the amendment. But he
indicated in an interview he
expected it to die like the
others.
A leader of the "progres
sive" bloc fighting the com
munications bill. Sen. Albert
Gore (D-Tenn.) said he thought
the bill would probably pass
tonight if the Clark - Morse
amendment were defeated.
"But if we could muster
enough votes to keep it from
being tabled, the fat might be
in the fire," he added.
amount of grass a 1,000 pound
cow can eat in a month.
The board said grazing fees
on private lands range from
$1.50 to $3 per animal-unit
month.
It also recommended that
20 cents of the 35 cent fee
be returned to the district in
which it was collected for
range improvement work.
The board invited comment
for Jack Binford, Portland,
national president of the Izaak
Walton League. Binford said
his group feels that public
lauds are not being used to
their full capacity, and urged
collection of a fee from other
users of public land. At pres
ent only livestock grazers pay
a fee.
The board reelected its
chairman, Henry Gerber, a
Lakeview cattle rancher, and
elected Jim Webber, a Baker
sheep rancher, vice chairman.
Long Beach, Calif. - HOT -Anxieties
reached hand-wringing
proportions today among
the 52 contestants for the
International Beauty Con
gress crown who hurried
through last minute primping
for the preliminary judging
set for tonight.
The girls, representing
countries from all over the
world, are seeking the title
of Miss International Beauty
which includes a $10,000 cash
award, a complete wardrobe
and a diamond wrist watch.
Runnerup prizes include
$4,000 for second place, $2,500
for third, $1,500 for fourth
and $1,000 for fifth place.
The preliminary judging
will take three days, with
semifinal and final competi
tion Saturday.
Several of the typical extra
curricular problems that ac
company nearly every beauty
contest showed up Tuesday.
Miss Australia would not pose
in her bathing suit for a pho
tographer, Miss Italy chal
lenged the impartiality of one
judge, and a rumor started
that the reigning Miss Inter
national Beauty was engaged.
Competition regulations
stipulate that contestants must
wear playsuits for judging,
but there are no rules against

poses.

DIVING BOARD STOLEN

manager of the Wildwood
Country Club swimming pool,
could hardly believe his eyes i

Tuesday. During the night,
someone had stolen the pool's

about 250 pounds, Grady said.
Since our recent opening date the nature or many inquiries
suggest that a clarification of our service is advisable. Because
we are new in concept, as compared to the established de
finition of a nursing home, it is understandable that our
function as a medical care facility is not generally familiar.
Our service includes a superior level of the complete range
of nursing home care. Basically, we differ from the facility
which specializes in care of the aged through having com
bined with this function a complete physical therapy depart
ment. This expands considerably the scope of service pro
vided. Our rates do not exceed those of the conventional nursing
home. Rates include meals and all supplies and materials
necessary to patient care except medications, physical therapy,
X-Ray and medical laboratory charges.
This information is offered in response to inquiries most often
made. For more complete details call 773-7711, or write toi

Berlin -(IJPH- A Communist !
border guard shot two other
East German policemen today
in an attempt to f!ee to the

fired 15 shots at the 25-foot

the Communist - constructed :
antirefugee wall dividing East
Germany and West Berlin.
Four fellow border guards
on the ground then opened !
