Moat Important Election
Many observers considered
the election the most Impor
tant in years and aald it could
determine Italy's political pic
ture for the next decade.
Early predictions were that
many members of Fanfani's
Christian Democratic party
would desert and vote for the
Liberals in opposition to the
"opening to the left." But It

Highway Office
Gets Old Voucher
Salem - An eight dollar
voucher, mailed out almost
46 years ago by the Oregon
State Highway department,
came back recently as a well
preserved, antique mailing
piece. '
The voucher, dated Sept. 12,
1017. was made out to C. T.
Smith of Washougal, Wash.,
and waa to be signed by him
and returned as soon sa possi
ble. For reasons unknown,
Smith never got around to
mailing it.
The voucher was sent to
Smith in payment of services
furnished to "H. B. Fletcher
and party," apparently high
way surveyors. Smith trans
ported the group "from Cas
cade Lockea to Wyeth," some
five miles up the Columbia
river. Four tripa were made
in August, 1917, at $2 per
trip.
In returning the voucher,
the anonymous aender at Mo-
sler enclosed It in an old self
addressed brown envelope
with printing directed to Her
bert Nunn, state highway en
gineer, Room 303, State house,
Salem.
Nunn took office April 10,
1917. He was the first state
highway engineer of the new
ly formed State Highway de
partment. State highway com
missioners then serving, and
who assumed office Feb. 28,
1917, were S. Benson, Port
land, chairman; W. L. Thomp
son, Pendleton, and E. J. Ad
ams, Eugene.
The past due voucher will
remain in the highway depart
ment's library at an antique
item.
enough to form a decisive fac
tor.
Sunday's voting was marred
by a series of early morning
bombs. Nine policemen and a
fireman were injured.
The election could have im
portant bearing or, Italy's fu
ture role in the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization and the
European Common Market.
Alliance With Socialists
Following a aeries of Chris
tian Democratic governments
formed with center and right
wing support, Fanfani last
year established a coalition
with the Republicans and So
cial Democrats.
To secure additional sup
port, Fanfani made an alii
ance with Pletro Nenni's So
cialists which have had close
ties with the Communists in
the past. The Socialists have
enabled the coalition to stay
in power with their strong
support in Parliament
The price the government
has paid so far for Socialist
support has been nationaliza
tion of electricity, a contro
versial issue.
Nenni's Socialists favor con
tinued Italian membership in
NATO, but they want the
country to take a more "neu
tralist" attitude.

Washington -fllPli- A Marine
officer discharged from the
service on charges of slaying
a suspected Cuban spy it
among Medal of Honor win
ners invited to a White House
ceremony Thursday.
The officer, former Capt
Arthur J. Jackson, said Sun
day night that he intends to
attend the ceremony. Jackson
is now a mailman at San Jose,
Calif.
He said he and his wife
will leave from Travis Air
Force Base, Calif., Tuesday
with 22 other Medal of Honor
winners from California. He
declined comment on the Cu
ban spy killing incident.
"When they (the Depart
ment of Defense) get ready
for me to talk, I'll say some
thing," he said.
About 250 of the 294 living
Medal of Honor winners were
expected to attend the recep
tion, arranged some time ago.
Jackson was one of four
Marine officers dismissed
from the service because of
the 1961 incident involving
a Cuban employed at Guan
tanamo Naval Base.
One of the four, former Lt.
William A. Szili, told news
men Saturday that Jackson
shot the Cuban in self-defense.
Szlli said he helped Jackson
dispose of the body.
Szili said the Cuban was a
Castro agent who was discov
ered prowling around a re
stricted powder magazine. He
said he and Jackson sought to
turn the prisoner over to the
base police. The police de
clined to take him, Szlli said,
and told Szili and Jackson to
take the Cuban to the gate
and release him.
The gate was jammed by
a defective latch, Szili said,
and he went to get a sledge
hammer to open it. While he
was gone, according to Szili,
the Cuban attacked Jackson,
who fired in self-defense.
Szili taid the body fell over
a cliff and he and Jackaon
decided to tay nothing be
cause of possible internation
al complications.
