AmericansNamedjJohnson Calls For
To Key Posts at Morse's Reelection
Catholic Council
Vatican City - WPP - The
Ecumenical Council Saturday
announced the election of 112
Roman Catholic leaders, in
cluding 13 Americans, to key
commission posts in balloting
that indicated an apparent vic
tory for church liberals over
conservatives.
The historic gathering of
more than 2,500 prelates then
issued a message calling for
peace in a world menaced by
the threat of thermonuclear
war. It said peace and the
need for social justice were
two key problems facing the
council.
The peace appeal came at
a three hour and 38 minute
council meeting in which car
dinals and bishops were des
ignated for posts on seven of
the 10 council commissions
that will guide the delibera
tions of the world-wide meet
ing. Pope John XXIII altered
existing regulations to make
a plurality rather than an ab
solute majority sufficient for
election on the first ballot,
which was held Tuesday.
Total Number
Vote counting was still un
der way for posts on the re
maining three commissions.
The total number of elected
prelates on the final commis
sion rosters will be 160. An
other 80 members are ap
pointed by Pope John XXII1I.
Observers said a reading of
the list of those already
chosen indicated considerable
success for the liberal school
which has been trying to re
duce the influence of the
Italian and Vatican-based
clergy.
The Italian clergy, some
times accused of trying to ex
ert too much influence on the
council, won only 15 of the
posts announced thus far.
The U S. group was second
in size. Indians. Chinese and
the Church's only Negro car
dinal, Laurian Cardinal Rug
ambwa of Tanganyika, also
were chosen.

By Record
Vice President Lyndon B.
Johnson Friday night praised
Senator Wayne Morse as a
voice of ''incorruptible intel
lectual integrity" and urged
the people of Oregon to re
turn him to the Senate "with
the largest majority in your
state's history."
Johnson told an audience of
about 600 persons at a Demo
cratic rally at Hedrick Junior
High school that "fear of
standing alone, of being
branded a non-conformist, has
never silenced the voice of
Senator Morse."
House Speaker Robert B.
Duncan, Democratic candi
date for Congress from the
fourth district, introduced
Morse to the audience as a
man "who has never been
afraid to say what he thinks."
Morse, in turn, introduced the
vice president.
Alarm Buzzed
Johnson, wearing i cliow
rose in his lapel, spoke for
about 30 minutes. The alarm
on his wrist watch buzzed at
9:05 o'clock. As he shut it
off, he grinned at the audience
and said, "I wear this to tell
me when I've talked too
much." Then he spoke for 10
minutes more.
Turning to international is
sues, Johnson promised the
Kennedy administration
"won't permit Castro to lake
aggressive action against any
part of the hemisphere."

ever must be done to protect

He said the U.S. will "co

of those neutral nations who
respect our views."
But he said the Kennedy ad
ministration has transformed
the foreign aid program to
loans Instead of gifts, and he
emphasized that reviews are
under way to cut out give
aways. Morse praised area leaders
for their work on the Rogue
Basin bill and said that its
passage will mean a "great
economic boon" to southern
Oregon.
He promised, if elected, to
go forward in the next ses
sion of Congress with work on
the Agate dam project.
Morse told the audience he

a dinner honoring the vice
president at the Rogue Valley

evening. Some 150 persons

De Gaulle Attacks
French Supreme.
Court Decision
Paris - HIPP - President
Charles De Gaulle's govern
ment Saturday angrily
charged France's supreme
court with handing down a
decision that encourages "sub
version and violence."
It did so in a strongly word
ed reply to the council of
state, the nation's highest le
gal body, which ruled last
night that De Gaulle had over
stepped his powers by setting
up a special military court of
justice last June to try secret
army organization (OAS) tcr
orists. There is no appeal on the
council's ruling.
The decision, coming only
eight days before the Oct. 28
constitutional referendum
which will decide whether De
Gaulle remains in office or
not. hit the government with
shattering impact. It was in
terpreted as a direct slap-in-the
teeth for De Gaulle at a
moment when he is embroiled
in the toughest political bat
tle of his lifetime.
Justice Minister Jean Foyer
conferred hastily with Prem
ier George Pompidou and la
ter with De Gaulle himself.
Soon afterward, the gov
ernment issued a formal state
ment which amounted to a
virtual declaration of war
against the council of stale.
The government statement
recalled that De Gaulle set up
the military court by an order
based on the April 8 refer
endum vote which gave him
full powers to bring Algeria
to independence.
He did so after the earlier
military tribunal, which De
Gaulle dissolved at the same
time, had found extenuating
circumstances in the case of
secret army organization
(OAS) leader Ex-Gon. Raoul
Salan and had failed to sen
tence him to death.

Enough to
Washington - H'PP - Phys

Saturday the United Slates
has stockpiled "enough nu
clear explosives to over
kill the Soviet Union at
least 25 times."
That being the case, "the
unending production of
bomb material by the
Atomic Energy commission
should be called off at
long last," Lapp said, and
the money and effort thus
saved devoted to "science
and atomic energy for
peace."
Lapp, a writer and lec
turer on nuclear affairs
who worked in the World
War II atomic project, ex
pressed these views in a

Hurricane Ella
Swings Away from
Eastern Seaboard
Small Craft Warned
To Stay in Port
Norfolk, Va. -WPP- Hurri
cane Ella, a monstrous freak
measuring 1,000 miles across
in spots, swung its highest
100 mph winds farther away
from the U. S. mainland Sat
urday but kept gales trained
toward the eastern seaboard.
At midnight (EDT), the
Washington weather bureau
estimated the storm center
was 300 miles northwest of
Bermuda, near latitude 35.5
north, longitude 68.0 west.
Rapidly increasing its speed
the storm was moving on a
Northeast course at 15 to 20
mph. Ella appeared doomed
to die in the cold north At
lantic. "The hurricane is no longer
a threat to coastal sections of
the middle Atlantic slates,"
the weather bureau said.
Lowered Warnings
It lowered gale warnings
from Cape May, N. J. to Cape
Hatteras, but warned small
craft from Block Island, R.I.,
to Cape Hatteras to remain
in port.
Forecasters said the area
where the gale watch was in
effect could expect rough seas,
heavy swells and gale winds
a short distance off the coast.
Tides were expected to run
1 to 3 feet above normal Sat
urday night in the area.
"Winds along coastal North
Carolina and Virginia are
gradually decreasing and will
be under 26 mph on the main
land but 30 to 40 mph a short
distance off shore," the weath
er bureau said.
It warned small craft from
Block Island, R. I to Sa
vannah, Ga., and those in ex
treme southern Chesapeake
bay to remain in port until
seas subside.
Hedrick Student
Wins Bike Roadeo
Gary Ray, a student at Hed

judged champion of the Bi
cycle Roadeo Saturday after
noon. He received a bicycle
from Sim's.
Saturday's bicycle riding
skills tests, participated in by
about 1)0 students, was the
third and final examination
in the annual event sponsored
by the Medford Junior Wom
en's club, the Medford parks
and recreation department in
cooperation with the Medford
police and Jackson county
sheriff's department.
Sponsors of the Roadeo said
that approximately one-third
of those who participated in
the third lest, qualified for
the finals. The scores were
so close that all finalists had
to repeat all three tests
written, mechanical and skills.
Other boys who won were
Gerald Redding, Hoover, ra
dio from Newberry's; Bob
Capscy, Hoover, camera from
Weisficld's; and Rodney Ku

the competition. She received
a radio from Scars, Roebuck.
Other winners were Teresa
Ann Darby, St. Mary's, cam
era from Ander s Photo shop,
and Julie Ray, Westside. $10

House. Julie is the sister of
the champion.
'Overkill'
meant destruction of both
sides in nuclear war. "The
United States cannot slop
Communism by nuclear
arms without destroying it
self, nor can the Soviet
Union overthrow capitalism
hy force without suffering
the same fate," he said.
In the meantime, Lapp
said, civilization continues
to invest more and more
of its income In an arms
industry upon which it is
becoming dangerously de
pendent. "Unless there 's a dras
tic change in the public
outlook." he said, "the tri
umverate of Congress, the
millitary, and industry may
condemn the United States
to a permanent and ever
growing arms economy."

be suffering from a "slight Infection." -(UPI)
'Slight Infection'
Forces JFK to Cut
Weekend
Washington -IUPI1- President
Kennedy Saturday had to cut
short his coast lo coast elec
tion campaign tour and re
turned to the While House
to battle a feverish cold.
The Illness was described
as a "slight upper respiratory
infection" which sent the
President's temperature one
degree above normal. He was
hoarse when he awoke Satur
day morning.
Kennedy arrived at An
drews Air Force base, Md.,
by jet plane from Chicago at
1:23 p.m. (EDT), and went
immediately to the White
House by helicopter. The In
terruption came after he had
completed only one-third of
campaign swing.
It was a combination of the
cold and rain along his cam
paign route that persuaded the
President to follow doctors
orders and cancel his remain
ing engagements. Word was
sent out to disappointed Dem
ocrats in Milwaukee, St. Lou
is, Albuquerque, Las Vegas
and Seattle.
Appeared Tired
Sunny, warm weather greet
ed him on his return to the
capital. He walked from his
jet plane, with a gray fedora
in his hand, saluted an Air
Force guard and strolled to
the helicopter.
En route to the plane from
his Chicago hotel, Kennedy
appeared tired and rather
glum. A light rain was fall

Fatal Shooting
Sheriff's officers said Sat

Deputies said Conner died
of a self-inflicted wound, but
arc making a further Investi
gation. It was reported Conner and
Arnold Wilmer Ragsdalc,
Trail, were driving Into the
Prospect area to look for cat
tle and had rifles with them.
Ragsdale asked Connors to
stop because he saw deer.
As he sighted In his rifle
on the deer, Ragsdale dis
covered It was a doe. But, as
he turned around he heard
a rifle explode on the other
I side of the truck. Thinking
' Connor had shot a deer he
I ran around the ether side and
I found Conner's body.
The body was taken to Con
ger-Morris funeral home In
Medford Services will be
held at ,1 p.m.. Tuesday, with
burial In the Trail cemetery.
Kennedy dons his raincoat In
Campaign
was unusual for him. He ap
peared to shiver slightly as
he shrugged, into a raincoat
and climbed into a waiting
car.
While slight, the infection
was the President's worst ill
ness since he rcinjured his
back last year. He was trou
bled by a cold earlier, this
month, but shook it off with
the help of aspirin and anti
histamines and has campaign
ed every week end of the
month so far.
There was no immediate
word on what effect this lat
est illnes might have on an
extensive campaigning sched
ule he has planned for this
coming week.
The infection struck after
Kennedy spent a strenuous
day campaigning through
Ohio and Illinois. Rear Adm.
George Burklcy, assistant
White House physician, diag
nosed the trouble as a minor
cold In the upper chest.
Since the President had
been scheduled to spend much
of the day at outdoor rallies,
and since rain was falling
along his route as far west as
Albuquerque, the decision was
made to break off the trip.

Both Accuse Each
Other of Starting
The Border War
Chinese Lodge
Urgent Protest
New Delhi -HIPP- India and
Communist China accused
each other today of massive
attacks in an undeclared bor
der war and the Chinese
lodged an urgent protest.
Fighting was reported con
tinuing Ihis morning in the
northern and western sectors
along the frontier between the
two Asian giants.
India announced that up to
20,000 Chinese Communists
attacking in human waves at
two points of the border over
whelmed a number of Indian
posts and advanced three to
four miles inside India yester
day. The situation was consider
ed so serious that Indian De
fense Minister V. K. Krishna
Mcnon called a briefing last
night - his second of the day
- to accuse the Chinese of at
tacking after long preparation
and deliberate planning while
laming peace.
Register Protest
The Red Chinese loreign
ministry, summoned India's
charge d'affaires in Peiping,
P. K. Baneriee. to a ore-dawn
mooting today and register
ed a formal protest. The offi
cial Communist New China
News Agency, which reported
the meeting, described the
protest as a "most urgent and
serious protest."
The Chinese Communists
charged that the Indian gov
ernment had refused to nego
tiate the dispute and had
launched "massive attacks on
the Chinese frontier guards on
Chinese territory," the Com
munist News Agency said.
"China has no choice but
to rebuff their frenzied at
tacks resolutely," the protest
note said. . '
The Chinese said Indian
troops had inflicted heavy cas
ualties to the Chinese frontier
guards who were "compelled
to strike back in self defense."
"The fighting is still going
on," the protest note said.
"The Indian government must
bear full responsibility Uor alt
the serious consequences aris
ing therefrom."
Ail-Out War
Krishna Menon r' ' "i-d to
describe the Chinese attacks
as a formal "act of war" but it
appeared that the two most
populous nations in the world,
with a combined population of
bnc billion persons, were
threatened with all-out war.
Peiping continued to insist
the Indians had attacked first.
It said Communist troops had
"recovered" the border posts
of Khingsemane, C h e d o n g
and Kalung in the Northeast
area. India admitted the loss
of Khingsemane, a mountain
pass, and Dhola, its most Im
portant border post.
Peiping reported heavy cas
ualties among Its own troops.
It said fighting still raged to
night in the northeast frontier
area and in the Ladakh area,
near the border of China's
Sinkiang province north of
Kashmir and 900 miles to
the west.
