urday that Columbus day
storm damage to Oregon air
pi a n e s .end airports totaled
more than $1.6 million.

sealing atop the runway of
Redmond airport. A survey
was ordered on the possibility
of developing an airport at
Oakridge, in Lane county.
Slate Aeronautics Director
Robert Dunn said he has ob
icctions to proposed new
minimum standards the Feder
al Aviation Authority wants
to apply to small airports.
One of them calls for mini
mum 75 foot wide runways
I and 45 foot wide taxiways, n
relaxing of present minimum
standards, and Dunn indicated
he doesn't favor this.

For Foster Youth
By Welfare Group
Portland - IUPU - Standard
allowances under the Aid - to-Depcndent-Childrcn
program
for children in foster homes
have been approved by the
Oregon Public Welfare Com
mission. The commission set allow
ances of $57 a month for chil
dren through five years of
age, $67 for children six
through 13, and $80 for chil
dren 14-18.
Because of the cost, the
commission did not extend its
standards to all children in
foster homes. Statewide
standards under the ADC pro
gram are necessary if Oregon
is to continue receiving sup
porting federal funds, com
mission chairman, Dr. Ennis
Kcizcr said.
In other action, the com
mission recommended that
able-bodied state welfare re
cipients be made available to
public agencies for storm
cleanup.
Commissioners noted such
action is permissible under an
emergency work clause of the
state welfare law.
Cuban Youth Still
Support Castro
Stanford, Calif. - UPI - A

sor of Latin American history
has -stated that Fidel Castro
"still has the firm support of
the young people of Cuba."
Prof. John J. Johnson, ap
pearing on a campus panel,
Friday, warned, "If the Unit
ed States plans an invasion
of Cuba, it must anticipate a
bloodbath even if convention
al weapons are used."
He said Cubans would bit
terly resist any American
move against the Island na
tion. Jan Triska, a political
science professor and Russian
expert appearing on the same
panel, said the "Crisis in the
arms blockade is now over."
He said he did not believe
Russian Premier Khrushchev
"saw the difference between''
the U. S. definition of defen
sive and offensive " -capons
in comparing Russ-ian bases in
Cuba from American bases
near the Russian border.

Thornton Refuses
To Sue Hatfield
ver Leqal Aide
Salem -H'Pli- Atly. Gen. Rob
ert Y. Thornton has refused
to file a suit against Gov.
Mark Hatfield lo determine if
Hatfield has complied with
the law by hiring a personal
legal aide. Loren Hicks.
He challenged Hatfield lo
file the suit himself.
Saturday, the governor's of
fice said Hatfield would "not
dignify" Thornton's request
"that the governor sue him
self" by replying to it.
Thornton, Democratic nom
inee for governor, ci'ed a 1917
law staling that "no state of
ficer, board
commission, or
the head of a department or
institution of the state shall
employ or be represented by
any other counsel or attorney
at law" other than the state at
torney general.
Hatfield has ignored Thorn
Ion's legal advice in matters
pertaining to the governor's
office since Hatfield took of
fice in 1958. Instead, he hired
1 licks.
Thornton has always con
tended this is illegal. Earlier
this week. Hatfield challeng
ed Thornton to file a test case.
I But Friday Thornton said
j that "since you arc the state
official who has chosen not
to comply wilh this law en
acted in 1947. I suggest that
you bring tiie test case your

i lorncys to establish your right

From all indications, there
was little of the panicky rush

to avoid following the laws of

"We are ready to defend
the law in court at any time,"
Thornton added.
In a three page letter lo
Hatfield, Thornton noted that
"You have been quick to

dentally I do not need under

this week. Perhaps it was the
toughening up of a decade of
cold war tension. Perhaps it
was bland disbelief that nu

Salei Normal
In crisis-conscious Washing
ton, sure target in a nuclear
attack, stores reported sales
normal.
"People have taken this
Cuba thing in stride just the
way they did the stock market
crash," one department store
executive commented.
Food supplies were widely
reported to be ample. U.S.
Com mcrce Department fig
ures indicated retailers and
wholesalers have inventories
in excess of a normal month s
sales. Panic buying of key
commodities, however, could
cause selective shortages, of
ficials said.
Even if tensions rise and
consumers do begin to stock
up, economists said, persis
tent major shortages are un
likely, especially of manufac
tured goods. The economists
points to the nation's consider
able unused factory capacity
and pool of unemployed.
Pulse Could Quicken
Walter W. Heller, chairman
of the President's Council of
Economic Advisors, said the
Cuba crisis could lead to
"some quickening of the eco
nomic pulse."
Government experts, who
kept a wary eye on buying
and price trends, said con
sumer behavior was a more
important influence on retail
prices than fluctuations in
wholesale commodity prices.
The latter closed the week on
a rising trend after having
shot up Tuesday and Wednes
day and backed off Thursday.
The Office of Emergency
Planning reviewed its plans
for price, rent and other eco
nomic controls. A spokesman
said flatly that controls were
not about to be put into effect.
Short of nuclear attack,
authority for controls would
be sought from Congress. In
a total emergency, the spokes
man said the President could
invoke controls by virtue of
powers inherent in his con
stitutional designation as
Commander-in-Chief.
