A rescue party succeeded in putting a line across the Nestucca river some 13 miles above the com munity of Blaine Friday and sent over a supply of food to five persons isolated by Tues day's flood. They were cut off when the Meadow Lake dam broke and smashed seven bridges across the river.

They were Identified as Mr. and Mrs. Bob Cautz, Mary Gilllvan, Chris Gableman and rancher Al Durkee. The sheriff's office rigged another line across the river a few miles downstream Wed nesday and sent medical sup plies to Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Browning.

Spanglcr said so in a letter to Appling, also a Republican, on Nov. 14. Spangler said his book was educational rather than political. He also contended that a report isn't required because of the campaign in question Morse's reelection to the Sen ate involved a national rath er than a state or local office. Appling said that as chief of state elections officer, he disagrees. Law Cittd In a letter to Spanglcr, Ap pling said, "You contend, among other things, that you are not required to file a statement of contributions and expenses because the book was educational rather than political, because you were exercising your constitutional right of free speech, because you did so as a private citi zen, because the statements in the book were true, etc. I suggest that these are dis- Firm Must Half Hawaiian Land Sales Sacramento, Calif. -(UN)- A Long Beach firm has been or- deret t stop California sales of a proposed Hawaiian sub division tract.

"I am sure that a great deal of political material meets these standards but that it is, nonetheless, subject to the re. quirements of the Oregon election law, Appling said Appling cited two Oregon laws which, "In my judgment, makes a campaign for the United States Senate just as much subject to Oregon elec tion law as are campaigns for state and local olfice. Her. tainly that has been the prece dent and the understanding of the law in Oregon for many years, and I believe it to be a highly desirable require ment and one well founded iD 'l;r law." Appling concluded by say ing "I hereby request that you Immediately tile .he re quired statement. Ko Comment In Portland, Spangler said he had not received Appling's letter and declined to offer any comment until he read the letter. He said his opinion was based on specific Oregon statutes and he wanted to see if Appling offered an inter prctation of them. The controversial book, which Democrats complained was a hatchet job on Morse, appeared earlier in the year, and was distributed widely In Oregon. It was published by the Meriwether Book company. Spangler said this Is a trade name under which he is li censed to publish and distrib ute books and magazines. Spanglcr said the pocket sized book cost less than $23, 000 to publish and distribute. It sold for SO cents. HUNTER KILLED John Day -IUPD- A Myrtle Creek hunter, Lynthol L, Brown, 46, was shot and kill ed northwest of here Friday.

Foundation Work On New Prison To Begin Shortly Salem - (VPS - Foundation excavation work will begin within a few days on the new women's prison here, Warden Clarence T. Gladden said to day. The new unit will house 56 women prisoners, with one woman to a cell. At present, women are housed on the second and third floors of the prison ad ministration building. There are 40 women in quarters de signed for 25. Work on the new facility is being done by prison labor. S.w.r Line In Gladden said the main sewer line for the new unit is in, and the fence surround ing the site is nearly com pleted. The new women's prison Is being built just outside the present grey concrete walls of the penitentiary. The warden said he expect ed the new unit to be com pleted "in about 18 months." He said 30 prison inmates are now working on the project. Work on the new prison unit was interrupted by the Columbus Day storm which ripped roofs from shops, top pled farm building sides, downed trees, and did other damage throughout the prison. A greenhouse had to be completely rebuilt, he said. A total of 73 large trees were downed by the' fierce winds. Women presently are hous ed five or six to a room-and in one room eight women are kept. The warden said he re quires all women prisoners to bathe once a day. While work is presently be ing done by prison labor, a suit is pending In Marion County Court which could halt work by inmates. The Oregon AFL CIO seeks to prevent the work being done by prison help, so that the project would provide jobs for the civilian labor force. All of the storm cleanup work at the prison was done by inmates, the warden said. Page 2A MEDFORDf Tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1962 State Check Found Every 4th Turkey Short Weight Salem -flJPD- Every fourth turkey checked on the Ore gon market before Thanksgiv ing was short weight, the State Agriculture department revealed Friday. Spot checks in Bend, Red mond, Prineville, Portland, Oregon City and Salem mar kets revealed 27 per cent of the turkeys checked weighed less than the amount declar ed. The weight checks were made by Milan Gilman, weights and measures inspec tor assigned full time to the consumer package field. Because of the short time available, Gilman supervised reweighing and relabeling of the birds rather than seizing the turkeys. Birds from 10 packing houses three In Oregon and seven from out of state checked. "Only two were ser ious offenders," Gilman said. He said birds were as much as six to eight ounces short weight. Gilman said retailers would recover their losses from packers who supplied birds incorrectly labeled. Bond Issue Proposed To Meet College Construction Needs Eugene -UPD- House Minor ity Leader F. F. Montgomery (R-Eugene) proposed today that the $45 million to $50 million needed for higher ed ucation buildings in the 1983 65 biennium be raised through bonds put to a vote of the people next year. A change in the Oregon j Constitution would be requir ed. It contains a limit of $81.7 million on the amount of higher education revenue bonds that can be Issued by the state. Some $33.7 million worth of such bonds has already been issued, and the added amount Montgomery Is sug gesting would equal or top the limit. Montgomery predicted the 1963 Legislature won't be able to raise enough money for higher education's capital construction needs. He added that "the need for facilities is one we must resolve imme diately." Montgomery said tht bond ing plan could be voted upon at the same time a tax pro gram is referred to the peo ple. There has been tUk of the legislature possibly calling a special tax election during or after the 1963 session to deter mine the degree of expanding the state budget and how to pay for this.
