Pearson Election Seen Improvement For U.S. Relations By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington -(Special)- The Kennedy administration be lieves the new Canadian tmv. eminent to be headed by Liberal Lester Pearson will be easier to deal with than the outgoing government of C o nservative John Diefen baker on lum- A Burn. Smith d e r imports and the Columbia river pow er treaty, among other issues which have been sore points over the past year or two. During the recent Canadian election campaign, the admin istration kept a lid on public mention of issues involving Canada, following the flare-up of some weeks before when American officials criticized the Dicfcnbaker government for resisting approval of nu clear tipped missiles in Can ada for common continental defense purposes. But after the ballots were in. officials conceded the Dem o c r a tic administration in Washington was happy with the Liberal victory which end ed the Conservative regime at Ottawa. Philosophically and possibly temperamental ly, Pearson is considered more akin to the New Frontiers men than was Dicfcnbaker an intangible factor of signif icance in negotiations over differences. While tlte nuclear warhead Issue will likely be the pri mary matter for fresh talks after the new government takes power, Northwest lum ber and power are on the list for further discussion. "Kennedy's people think they can talk to Pearson and work something out on this lumber matter," said one high ly placed source. Renewed Attempts Seen He explained that he ex pected renewed attempts to get Canada to restrict volun tarily its increasing shipments of softwood lumber into the United States which has in vaded traditional domestic markets for Northwest Doug las fir and hemlock. Last fall's talks with the Diefenbaker government proved fruitless. Since then the Kennedy administration has been considering a possi ble temporary quota on Ca nadian imports to reduce the quantity of lumber entering the United States, possibly as a reserve weapon if the new government is equally unwill ing to restrict its lumber pro 1 m s mm I Don't Know How Much I to Deduct?

The Columbia river treaty, signed by Diefenbaker and President Eisenhower over two years ago, has never been ratified by Parliament be cause Diefenbaker never brought it up for debate and a vote after it became the focal point of a dispute be tween the federal Ottawa gov ernment and British Columbia Premier W. A. C. Bennett. Three Dams Included The treaty would permit construction of three big dams in the upper Columbia river system and sharing of power and flood control benefits. Ot tawa balked at Bennett's plan to sell much or all of Canada's share of the power to t h e United States for cash with which to finance Canadian de velopment of the Peace river. Closed door talks at a sub cabinet level between Ameri can and Canadian provincial and federal officials reached no conclusion but seemed to be progressing late in 1962. At the last meeting, at Van couver, B. C, in December, U. S. officials proposed to pay 3.75 mills for Canada s snare of the power under 30-year contracts. The Canadians nev er responded to that offer. Officials here expect these talks to resume after the new government is formed, pre sumably on the financial is sues raised in the last meet ing. Neither lumbor nor power developed as issues in the Ca nadian election, which offi cials here hope will give the Pearson government a reason ably free hand in future nego tiations on these delicate mat ters. Henry Fowler, Former Bend Newsman, Dies Bend -IUPD- Henry Fowler, 73, former co-owner of the Bend Bulletin, died Saturday.

Oscar H. - She won't let me say a thing about furni ture. Marian H.-I've put more j thought into it than he. He should trust me. Oscar H. - We're married 11 years and are about to tap our savings for a complete refurnishing binge of every room except our son's. It will be a joy to get rid of the odds and ends and make-shifts we brought into our home when we started out. I want to get into the act now but Marian says leave it all to her. I don't have time to do all the shop ping, but I have my own taste and I want to use it. Marian H - Fortunately Os car isn't arguing with me about the costs. We've both worked to build up a fund for this purpose and he knows I'll keep within it. But he wants a man's house, with leather chairs and hunting prints and that sort of thing. I'm been dreaming of dainty French Provincial, white car peting, tole lamps - something that can suit us both. Decor ating is the woman's province. He should leave it to me. The Council: On the carpet, we have Marian. Look here, girl. There's no better interior decoration for any home than a man in it. Start with that. Further, think how much worse off you'd be if you were married to one of the many male members of the A. I. D. (the decorators' elite). You'd need (and probably could af ford) at least two homes to get a chance to give any of your own ideas free play. So be grateful for present bless ings - a man who has a few modes t decorating yens of his own, and those yens in the bank to implement a his-hcrs-our blending of decor ... In stead of bemoaning Oscar's in terest as intrusion in a wom an's domain (Bosh) she should be glad that he doesn't leave it all up to her. Alone, "all" is too much ... As to "a man's house," we pass along Glenn Ford's tip that there's where a woman looks best. He likes to set a wraith of a female, he says, against a stone fire place with a hunting trophy above. SEVERS HAND. FOOT Los Angeles 1UPII A mental patient who severed his right hand and foot with a butcher knife was reported in satis factory condition today at General Hospial. Police said the 34-year-old man, home Sunday to visit his family during Easter, severed his hand and foot after reading a passage in the Bible that says, "If thy hand offend thee, cut it off. Try and By BENNETT CERF- A PARIS SOCIALITE took umbrage at a remark made about him by a widely read, very arrogant newspaper columnist, and demanded satisfaction on the dueling field. Neither man knew much about swordplay, but the socialite actually suc ceeded in wounding his opponent superficially be fore friends pulled them apart. While they were bandaging the column ist's wound, he delivered his best bon mot "I be lieve," he said, "that this is the first time in my life I was ever stuck for a phrase." Shortly before the out break of the Civil War, President Lincoln had a mild attack of smallpox (the doctors called it varioloid) to add to his troubles. Informed of the nature of his illness, Lincoln didn't lose his precious sense of humor. "It is too bad," ho noted drily, "that this one time while I have something to gfve everybody no one comes near me!" "Writing and Its Consequences" was the subject of a recent symposium in Chicago. Which reminded an elderly lawyer of a famous adage: "Do right and fear no man. Don't write and fear no wawnan."

S. Navy history. Only an oil slick and bits of flotsom. reported to be pieces of plastic and cork that may have come from the Thresher gave any clue to the dis appearance but only one con clusion presented itself: she sank to the ocean floor 8,400 feet below the surface where pressures were be lieved to have cracked her hull. The one underwater ship that might give a clue to what happened to the Thresh er, which disappeared about 220 miles East of Cape Cod, Mass.. was making ready at the opposite side of the conti nent at San Diego. Crew members of the deep diving Bathyscaph Trieste, designed to go as deep as seven miles below the sur face, were preparing to ship the 60-foot long craft to the East coast for a possible search. California crewmen listed aboard the Thresher, which had- been making a shake down cruise following repairs in a shipyard, were John E. Garner, 1313 Carl Ave., Val- lejo. Norman T. Hayes, 5616 North Loma Ave., Temple City, and James F. Phillippi, 11761 N. 3rd St., Yucaipa, all enlisted men. Elsewhere, there were these developments: Crash: An Air Force C-133 Cargomaster with nine crew men aboard crashed and burst into flame 3,000 feet from the runway of Travis AFB, kill ing all nine. The plane was attempting to make a landing following a routine training flight when it dived into a soggy marsh near the runway and went up in flames that burned for an hour. There was no immediate clue to the cause of the crash. Taxes: Democratic leader ship in the Legislature split with Gov. Edmund G. Brown Audience Weeps For Beauty Winner Desford, England - tUPD Folks in the audience broke down and cried Sunday night when 18-year-old Pat Arm strong beat out 29 other girls in the first beauty contest she ever entered. Pat's father explained later she has been a deaf mute since childhood because of an at tack of meningitis. "She always has led a shel tered life and has never had a boy friend," he said.

MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOHD. over the question of new taxes. Speaker of the Assem bly Jesse M. Unruh iD-Engle-wood), and Senate President Pro Tern Hugh M. Burns, (D Fresno), decided there must be new taxes or education would suffer. Unruh agreed with Burns, who said "We'll either have to face getting along on the present income or a tax increase will be ne cessary this session and I'm not afraid to face up to that." Governor Brown, who had promised no new taxes in 1963, commented he thought his no-taxes proposal had been "crystal clear." He re iterated that education could receive S30 million from the general fund, and another $25 million from "long overdue" county wide equalization of school taxes to solve this year's problems. Unruh's pro posed new taxes: a heavier cigarette tax and licensing of night harness racing.

It was similar to any that would be made in the event of nuclear war. The launching, from 85-feet below ground, was the first from the West Coast following suc cessful testing at Cape Cana veral, Fla. And the "Instant 1CBM" was launched for the first time by combat crews with full operational weap onry. At Edwards AFB. the X-15 broke its own record for rocket-powered flight when its rocket engine was run for 136 seconds while the newly modified craft took pictures of the earth. The old record was 127 seconds. It was the first flight in a program in which the X-15 will photo graph the stars, measure meteorites and investigate infra-red rays while flashing through space. It is expected also to soar to a record alti tude for aircraft of 75 miles. Explosion: An explosion hurled a steel plate 100 feet 3 SHOPPING CENTER STORE PETERSON HfI.UA HOI. A IIK4 IMX.
