ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington (Special) - A new face in the Oregon con gressional lineup this week, that of Rep. Robert Duncan, Medford Democrat, may bring a fresh slant to some of the Northwest issues facing the 88th Congress when it con venes Wednesday. Congrcsman Duncan's elec tion has already revived Ken nedy administration interest In Sen. Muurinc Neubergcr's bill fur crcuting an Oregon Duno national seashore park, lie succeeds nop. Edwin R. Durno, who opposed the Ncu bcrger bill and favored recre ational development of the present national forest area along the coast by the Forest Service. Because of the resistance of Durno and the Forest Service, the administration withheld support for the Ncuberger bill during the 87th Cungrcss. While it was thus sidetracked, new seashore parks were cre ated at Cape Cod, Mass., Padre Island, Tex., and Point Reyes, Calif. Wants Modest Proportions Duncan has indicated he will support a national park but one of more modest pro portions, excluding the inland lakes and private summer homes east of Highway 101 which the National Park Serv ice wanted to be included. Even before Duncan's elec tion, Sen. Ncuberger said she would be williiiR to exclude much of this must controver sial area -so a compromise bill Is likely early In the coining congressional session. Election of Duncan may also Influence the outcome of the coming battle over a North west -CaUtor ilia electric power inter! ic, especially if lie is assigned to the House In terior Committee, on which Durno served. Last summer that committee bottled up a Senate-passed bill to give the Northwest a regional prefer ence on use of Columbia river power in the event any sur plus energy is exported to other regions. tional forests for permanent inclusion in the wilderness system. Conservation groups plan a new drive to push it through Congress this year. Sen. Wayne Morse and Rep. Edith Green may be busy once again with aid to education legislation, which Congress failed to enact last year. The administration reportedly is fashioning a new omnibus education bill covering some features of previous proposals for extending federal financial aid to institutions ot higher learning as well as local pub lic schools. Most Northwest legislators will also likely take a hand in continued attempts to case the economic pinch of Cana dian competition on the do mestic lumber industry. Ad ministration officials have had sevcrnl talks with Canadian officials, apparently without favorable results. In the face of demands for more lumber at cheaper prices, the govern ment forestry agencies have increased their allowable cuts, along with launching salvage sales of the vast quantity of timber blown down in the Co lumbus Day storm. In Congress', the only bill affecting lumber enacted last year permits an exemption to the Jones act so that domestic lumber shippers can use for eign vessels to ship green lum ber to Puerto Rico. This Ncu berger act expires next Call, so a minimum effort is likely to extend it for at least anoth er year while further probes arc made toward a broader modification or outright re peal of the Jones act. An equal - pay for women bill was piloted through the House last year by Rep. Green, but the Semite failed to act on it. Another move along this path is probable. Wheal Referendum Further agricultural legisla tion is likely, but Oregon's senators and Hep. Al U 1 1 man will be chiefly concerned with the outcome of a wheat grow ers' referendum on the quis lion of accepting the pro visions of the Jti farm act which will tighten production Ullman on the Ways and Means Committee. Mrs. Neuberger may shift from the Agriculture Commit tee to another spot, however, and the assignment of fresh man Duncan is still in the future. Central Point Youth Enters Guilty Plea John Robert Clark, 19, of 464 Bush St., Central Point, pleaded guilty yesterday in circuit court to charges of re ceiving and concealing stolen properly.

Mona Lisa Makes U.S. Debut Tonight Washlngton-UIPD-S'.Ill smil ing, the Mona Lisa will go on display tonight in a country that was more interested in arrowheads than art when Leonardo da Vinci painted the enigmatic lady. But it is doubtful she Is disturbed by her American debut. The Florentine matron has an adventurous history behind her. There were Delaware Indi ans living along the banks of the Potomac river when da Vinci painted the portrait sometime during the period of 1503-06. About a million of the new inhabitants of the Potomac area and other sec tions of the United States are expected to visit her during her stay at the National Art Gallery here. French Culture Minister Andre Malraux will conduct the first group of visitors to a red carpet welcome for the Mona Lisa tonight. Guests at the welcoming ceremonies will include Presi dent and Mrs. Kennedy and French Ambassador and Mme. Herve Alphand. The portrait will be placed on public exhibition Wednes day for the first time in the United States. Sold for $10,000 The history of the Mona Lisa began when da Vinci painted the portaii an Ital ian nobleman's wife on a piece of poplar wood. A few years later the portrait was sold to King Francis I of France for 4.000 gold ducats - about $10,000. Francis took the painting to his palace at Fountainbleu, near Paris, where it remain ed for over 150 years. Gradu ally his successors moved their headquarters to the fam ous Versailles Palace and in 1695 the painting followed. After an 11-ycar stay there, the Mona Lisa moved again, this time to a wing of the Tuilcrics Palace later to be known as the Louvre, Paris' world-renowned art museum. In 1911, the long period of tranquility came to an end. An overly zealous Italian pa triot, deciding that the work of an Italian master had no place in a French museum, stole the famous painting, leaving only the frame as a souvenir. Police Recover Painting It was missing for two years. Then a Florence art dealer reported to the local police that he had been asked to buy the work, and the thief was finally arrested In a cheap hotel room.
