West Offers Movies Senator Ellender Presents Films Showing Russian Pumpkin Harvest km M4M Washington -IUP1I- It used to be my custom to invite friends in for an eveniing of home movie viewing. Before long I didn't have but one friend left, and he t'.fi hated me. saw this not tice that Sen. Allen J. Ellen. Wesi der was enini? to show some home movies in the Senate Office building au ditorium, I felt, out of compas sion, and obligation to attend. I figured that if I didn't show up, the senator, would have the auditorium to him self. But to my surprise, and maybe to his, there was a goodly crowd on hand. If being a senator means you can get people to watch your home movies, then I'm announcing my candidacy right now. Ellender, a Louisiana . De-' mocrat, has been making I round-the-world trips in re- J cent years as an emissary of ! t h e Senate Appropriations ! committee. - ! Like any other tourist, he takes along a camera. But unlike other traveling con gressmen, he pays tome of his own expenses. When we had assembled in the auditorium.' Ellender told us. in an accent redolent of tne oayou country, that we were going to seem some shots of "Moe S. Coe." I was still wondering who Moe might be when the screen lighted up and there was Ellender waving at us from in front of the Kremlin. Moscow was only the first stop. He also took us, via the magic lantern, to more re mote areas of the Soviet Un ion, including a collective farm where we watched a pumpkin harvest. Although the film was a black and white silent, Ellen der dubbed in a narration that helped us identify what we were seeing. It's a good thing he did. for without it I would a Soviet version of soccer. In filming hit adventur es, Ellender paid the same painstaking attention to de tail as in the written reports on his journeys, one of which, included the observa tion that the canals in Hol land were filled with water. For instance, he informed US IMttl MIC VUlgH 1IVC1 is used tor transportation and fishing," and that hogs were being raised "for breeding and slaughter." All in all, it was a most en joyable travelogue which I hope will serve to stimulate public interest in viewing home movies. If ever you should desire to never have guessed that those see a 30-minute film showing Russian peasants were har- i my son cutting his first tooth vesting pumpkins. j in slow motion, don't hesitate I thought they were playing I to give me a ring. The negotiations were an nounced in Washington and Ottawa Tuesday night, to be gin the week of Aug. 27. Rep. Al Ullman (D-Ore.). proposed a bill which would give President Kennedy au thority to set quotes on lum ber imports from Canada un less Canada entered into ne gotiations for voluntary con trols. Ullman said he felt the legislation was necessary to strengthen the U.S. hand in the talks. Chances Remote However, chances of final House and Senate action on the bill before adjournment appeared remote. The subject strikes at the heart of Canada's balance of payments woes, and the talks were expected to begin cau tiously. The U.S. negotiators were expected to begin by ex ploring the facts of the lum ber problem before trying to inch toward a hoped-for mu tual agreement on a solution. Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.), who had been one of the most insistent in demanding action to bolster the Northwest lum ber industry, said he was "very hopeful that Canada will enter into an agreement for a voluntary quota." Sen. Warren G. Magnuson (D-Wash.), said "I am very pleased that the Canadians re sponded so graciously on this matter, the quicker we will be able to sit down and deter mine the equities." The talks on Canadian lum ber exports to the United States were one phase of a six point program announced by Kennedy after a meeting with lumber state congressmen last month. Sen. Maurine B. Neuberger ID-Ore.), said she would rather see action on other points, of the program, domestic meas ures, in order to bolster equal competition' without quotas. Not in Sympathy "I'm glad they're beginning talks, but I'm really not in sympathy with import quo tas," Mrs. Neuberger said. She said quotas would be out of step with President Ken nedy's trade bill, which aims at expanding foreign trade through lowering trade bar riers. She called for revision of a j U.S. law that requires North-1 west lumbermen to use high cost U.S.-flag vessels in ship ping goods to the East Coast. Amendment of the law, the Jones Act, was one of the points of Kennedy's' program. Others, however, appeared to stake high hopes on the U.S.-Canadian negotiations.
