Jacksonville Fire
Burns Apartment
Over Food Market
Jacksonville The kitchen
in an apartment over the
Jacksonville market was com
pletely gutted by fire Friday
evening.
The Jacksonville volunteer
fire department used both its
trucks and 15 men to bring
the fire under control.
In addition to the damage
in the apartment, there was
also water damage to some
of the stock in the market, op
erated by Russell Mclntyre, at
102 East California st.
The fire started in the kit
chen of the apartment, oc
cupied by Mr. and Mrs. Lyal
Alley and their five children'.
Flames were confined to the
kitchen, although smoke
spread throughout the rest of
the apartment. Fire Chief
Lewis Applcbaker said.
The alarm was turned in at
7:45 p.m. The family was not
home at the time.
Cause of the fire was unde
termined, although Apple
baker said trouble with elec
trical wiring was suspected.
The building is owned by H.
L. Bowman of El Monte,
Calif.
Chief Applcbaker reminded
Jacksonville residents that the
number to dial to report a
fire has been changed. Resi
dents should now dial "O" for
operator instead of the pre
vious number llfi.

Kennedy
GOP for
St. Paul, Minn. (UPD Presi
dent Kennedy told a rip-roaring
rally of-Minnesota Demo
crats Saturday that the Repub
lican parly has produced can
didates whose slogans and
programs represent "retreat -a
method of sitting still."
The President added this
sharp note to a full day's de
nunciation of GOP candidates
for congressional and state of
fices in Michigan and Minne
sota when he appeared before
some 21,000 wildly-cheering
partisans here.
Kennedy spoke to some 16,
000 of them in the cavernous
Hippodrome of the Minnesota
State fairgrounds. His talk
was carried on statewide tele
vision and also on a closed
circuit to an overflow crowd
of 5.000 in an auxiliary build
ing across the street.
They had paid SI a piece to
attend the additional election
year "bean feed" of the Democratic-Farm-Labor
party to
put funds into their state and
local election drive.
Votes No
In a biting attack on the Re
publicans on issues ranging
from agriculture to aid to
higher education, from the
minimum wage to health care
for the aged, Kennedy said:
"I don't think we can find
jobs for our people, educate
our young people, provide se
curity for older people when
we have a party that votes
no," Kennedy said. And he as
serted that "no" is the only
word Republicans use where
his legislative program is con
ccrned.

Morse Replies to
Claim He Caused
Loss of Projects
Portland, Ore. fDPn The
only reason three Oregon pub
lic works projects got as far
as they did in Congress was
because of the efforts of him
self and Sen. Maurine Neu
berger, Sen. Wayne Morse (D
Ore.) said Saturday.
Morse issued a statement
from his Portland office in
answer to charges that he
caused the loss of $500,000 for
a start on the Blue river dam,
$200,000 for construction of
Yaquina dam and harbor and
$100,000 in planning funds
for lower Columbia and Wil
lamette channel improvement.
Those sums were knocked
out of the public works bill
Thursday by a Senate-House
conference committee.
Rep. Michael Kirwan (D
Ohio) said Friday he had
worked to scuttle all Oregon
projects because he was angry
with Morse and Rep. Edith
Green (D-Ore.). They had op
posed his bill for construction
of an aquarium in Washing
ton, D.C.
Persuaded Senate
Morse said in his statement
that he and Mrs. Neuberger
had persuaded the Senate to
include those three projects
plus $145,000 for the Mason
dam project and $20,000 for
the Pendleton reclamation
project in its version of the
bill.
"I am sorry to hear that
Mike Kirwan of Ohio has
publicly confessed that he re
sorts to tactics of legislative
b 1 a c k m a i I," Morse said.
"However, Kirwan, acting
alone, cannot stop any apr
propriations in conference.
The truth of the matter is that
the House conferees, as a
group, opposed, as a matter
of policy, voting for approp
riations ... in many states
for which the authorization
bill was still pending before
the Congress.
"The fact is that the Presi
dent has not yet signed the
40-foot channel authorization
bill."
Returning to the bill which
raised Kirwan's ire, Morse
said:
"Kirwan lost his head over
the Washington, D.C, Aquar
ium project." He said the $10
million Kirwan wanted for
the project should have been
used to meet the District of
Columbia school crises or
clean up the Potomac river,
which he called "the most pol
luted river of its size in the
world."
Slow Employment Decline
During Next
Employment is expected to
decline slowly in Jackson

"The supply of unskilled
labor was approaching a

age. At 5 p.m. (EDT), full gale
warnings were hoisted for
coastal New England from
Eastport, Maine, to Block

said coastal Maine should be
on hurricane watch.
A 6 p.m. (EDT) advisory
said that Daisy is expected to
move toward the north north
east at about 20 miles per
hour during the next six
hours. Then it is expected to
turn a little to a more north
erly course with a slight in
crease in forward speed.
No change in size or inten
sity is indicated. ,
At 6 p.m., the storm was
located by reconnaissance air
craft about 260 miles north
west of Bermuda, moving to
ward the north northeast at
about 20 miles per hour.
The highest winds are near
ly 100 miles near the center.
Hurricane force winds extend
outward 80 miles, and gales
out 350 miles to the north and

coastal New England from
Block Island northward, and
over southwestern Nova
Scotia, will increase Saturday
night reaching 50 to 60 miles
per hour.
Winds of up to 70 miles
per hour are expected along
the Maine coast today.
Tides are expected to rise

The Weather Bureau added
that "vessels in the path of

caution."
The storm is heading into

Castro for seven hours Friday

In Havana, Mrs. Berta Bar
reto, at whose home Castro
and Donovan conferred, said
that "perhaps today or Mon
day an announcement will be
issued. We are very optimistic,
but until then nothing will be
said."
(In Washington, responsible
Cuban exile sources said Cas
tro has agreed for a price to
release the 1,113 prisoners.
But the State Department said
it had no official news of the
agreement.)
Mrs. Barreto said negotia
tions with Castro were "very
advanced."
ft was believed that Dono
van may have persuaded Cas
tro to lower the $62 million
initially demanded as "indem
nity" for the relatives of Cu
bans killed during the inva
sion and to agree to easier
terms of payment.
Proposed Barter
Castro made the demand
after failing to obtain from
the United States tractors and
agricultural machinery equiv- .
a lent to that Amount in a pro-
poied barter of "men for
tools."
Several exile organizations
in the United States and Latin
America have sought to raise
the money, but they fell far
short from the goal. About 60
Cuban prisoners have been re
leased to help, the exiles in
their fund-raising campaign.
Donovan,, who last year ne
gotiated the , release of U2
pilot Francis Gary Powers
from the Soviet Union, came
to Havana last Wednesday. Be
fore leaving New York, he
told newsmen he h o p e d to
"complete arrangements" for
release of the prisoners during
this trip.
The attorney reportedly has
been trying to e ncourage Cas
tro to accept food and medi
cines In lieu of most of the re
quested $62 million.
