the continuing Communist
created peril around the
world, and formally endorsed
a new nuclear striking force
for the alliance.
In a communique at the

pressed their disquietover re
cent events in Laos."
On the Western Front,
"with regard to Germany and
Berlin, the threat has not dis
appeared," the communique
said.
The foreign and defense
ministers of the 15 member
nations formally ratified the
British-American plan for
pulling together targeting ar

diplomats said he apparently

stay in the USSR. They be
lieve Khrushchev promised
new economic and possibly
military aid.
Exchange Pledges
The public pledges were
exchanged Wednesday at a
mammoth farewell rally for
Castro at Lenin Stadium. To
day, the two leaders were be
lieved planning to head for
the Black Sea for a rest be
fore Castro's flight back to
Cuba, expected early next
week.
Castro's support was all the
more significant because Chi
na used the Cuban crisis of
last October to ridicule Khru
shchev's policies of peaceful
coexistence and demand a
more militant stand against
the West.
The Russians, Peking charg
ed, are "as timid as mice"
before the American "paper
tiger."
Castro did not refer speci
fically to the Soviet missile
pullout in his speech. But he
lavishly praised the Russians
for their willingness to risk
nuclear war and imperil the
achievements of the Russian
revolution for the sake of tiny
Cuba.
Refutes Peking Charges
This was a direct refutation
of what Peking charges. It
says Russia has abandoned its
revolutionary radicalism now
that it has some of the com
forts of an established society.
According to Peking, this
means the undeveloped na
tions seeking revolutionary
guidance must turn to China.
Thus Castro's pledge is like
ly to have important reper
cussions among the Commu
nist parties in the poorer
Latin American countries. Pe
king has been trying to woo
these parties, but they can be
expected to follow the line
of Castro, the one Communist
in power in the hemisphere.
Western diplomats pointed
out that Castro had little
choice, whatever his feelings
about the Chinese cause, for
which he has indicated some
sympathy in the past.
He can hardly survive with
out extensive aid. The Rus
sians are in a position to sup
ply this. The Chinese are not.

Orders Hearing
On Sugar Prices
Washington (UPlt The Sen
ate Finance Committee will
open an investigation into
soaring sugar prices as soon
as possible. Chairman Harry
F. Byrd (D-Va.) said today.
He announced the inquiry
after Democratic Leader Mike
Mansfield cited "sky-rocket
ing" sugar prices In his state
of Montana and urged that a
study be made of whether
speculators are trying to "rig"
the market.
The Senate inquiry will
parallel one already ordered
by a House banking subcom
mittee. Byrd told a reporter his
committee will start its inves
tigation "as soon as we can."
Surpluses Claimed
Mansfield wrote Byrd (hat
he understands there are "sur
pluses of sugar on hand and
that most of the countries are
fulfilling their quota agree
ments," he added:
"I would express the hope,
Mr. Chairman, that there is no
attempt being made by specu
lators or others to 'rig' the
price of such a basic commod
ity as sugar."
Mansfield said a number of
Montana businessmen, partic
ularly in the soft drink bot
tling field, had voiced concern
to him about "the sky-rocketing
Increases In the cost of
sugar."
He said sugar in Missoula,
Mont., was $14.05 per 100
pounds on May 21 compared
with $9 45 on Ihe same date
last year.
He said prices are expected
to rise further "if some action
is not taken shortly."

nature, since he orginally pro
posed the transfer. Some serv

of a shortage.
Long Day
The House and Senate
worked through long calen
dars. The House passed a bill
revising penalties for murder.
The bill would make pa

murder cases only after 10
years of imprisonment. It
would drop the maximum sen
tence for second degree mur
der from life in prison to 25

highway department data
showing that mileage from
Weed lo Eugene on Highway
99 and Interstate 5 is only
three miles longer than by
Highway 97 and that the driv
ing time by Highway 99 is
actually 40 to 55 minutes less
than on Highway 97.
The shorter driving time is
attributed to the fact that
there are 88 miles of freeway
and 12 miles nf other four
lane road on Highway 99 and
Interstate 5, compared to only
four miles of four-lane road
by the Highway 97 route.
Want Facts Known

group explained thai they did
not want to try tn take all the
traffic off the 07 route but
merely get their "fair share"
and have the true facts
known.
As an experiment, the occu
pants of one Ashland car
stopped at s Weed service sta

asked for advice on which
road to take for Portland. The

Compensation
Bill Revived
By Committee
Salem - IUPD - The contro
versial workmen's compensa
tion measure was brought
back to life under protest to
day in a drama-packed meet
ing of the House Labor and
Industries committee.
The meeting suddenly ad
journed when Rep. Richard
Kennedy (D-Eugene) objected
to 38 pages of amendments he
had not seen before the meet
ing began.
Rep. Jake Bennett (D-Port-
land) started the fireworks
when he said "I bid you good
bye," and stomped from the
room.
"I didn't ask to be on this
committee to scuttle Oregon's
workmen's compensation
law," Bennett said as he re
signed from the committee.
Asks Rule Change
Rep. Merrill Hagan (R- Mc-
Minnvillc) then asked the
rules be changed so that the
Senate bill - which had been
indefinitely postponed-could
be revived by a simple ma
jority rather than a two
thirds vote.
Kennedy, Rep. Robert Jones
(R-Portland) and Sid Lelkln
(D-Roseburg) attempted un
successfully to block the
move. They said it violated
House rules.
The bill was brought back
to life with Jones, Kennedy
and Leikin still objecting. Lei-
kin said he would appeal the
move to the speaker of the
House.
The show ground to a halt
when the committee split 4-4,
with Rep. Ed Whelan (D-Port-land)
Joining Jones, Kennedy
and Leikin In opposing the
substitution of 38 pages of
amendments.
Turner then abruptly ad
journed the meeting.
Election Scheduled

An election will be held
June 25 from 8 a.m. to 8
p.m. in the Sams Valley
Grange hall on formation of
the Sams Valley Irrigation
district.
The district will include
Sams Valley, Beagle, Shady
Cove and Trail areas. The dis
trict formation is necessary to
allow area farmers to draw
water from the proposed
Rogue basin project.
C of C Cooperation
chamber members were not
aware that the park was easily
accessible via Highway 62
through the Rogue valley, and
so the Ashland group made
mention of that highway's
scenic beauty.
Study Billboard Space
The Ashlandcrs studied the
possibility of buying billboard
space south of the 99-97 junc
tion at Weed to encourage mo
torists to stay on Highway 99,
and also of buying radio time
in that area to promote the
advantages of traveling to
Portland via Ashland and the
Rogue valley.
Chamber officials are hope
ful that other valley chambers
may take part In such a pro
gram. At Dunsmuir, the Ashland
group took particular Interest
in discussing problems that
arise when a town Is bypassed
by a freeway. Dunsmuir has
now been bypassed for three
years, and Ashland soon will
be.
The Dunsmuir group re
ported some advantages and
disadvantages. The town is
cleaner and gets a higher
caliber clientele than before,
they said, but the bypass has
unquestionably hurt some
businesses. Others, however,
are doing better than before.
At the Dunsmuir meeting,

Constitution
Given Chance To
Go Before Voters
Yturri, Stadler
Reach Agreement
Salem -WPD- A coirmromlsa
on legislative apportionment
was accepted unanimously to
day at a less than friendly
meeting of the Senate Com
mittee on Constitutional Re
vision.
The action gave a new con
stitution a new chance ut
getting to the voters next
year.
The compromise grew out
of proposals tossed out this
morning by Sen. Anthony
Yturri (R-Ontario), whose plan
has been in the new docu
ment, and Sen Glen Stadler
(D-Eugene), one of eight who
fought the "Yturri" plan.
Document Blocked
The eight blocked the docu
ment on the Senate floor be
cause they said it "mandated"
s preference for the least pop
ulated counties.
The essential feature of tha
compromise was that it re
tained the Yturri plan, but
gave the legilature more dis
cretion in grouping sparsely
populated counties and thus
deciding how many seats they
should get.
The plan makes sizes of the
House and Senate flexible up
to 65 and 35 members.
The compromise also pro
vided that, instead of using
1-30 and 1-60 to determine the
population unit for a seal, the
current membership of the
House and Senate would be
used. If membership of tha
houses increase, this would
make the population require
ment lor a legislator slightly
lower.
Plan Outlined
The plan would grant a leg
islator for each full unit for
major fractions (more than.
half a unit) standing alone,
and for . counties combined
into districts to qualify.
men, remaining members
would go to, leftover major
tractions.
The committee ordered lan
guage drafted.
Sen. Don Willner (D-Port-I
land), one of the eight fighting
the former "Yturri plan,
served notice he might later
oppose the compromise afler
studying it further.
As a sidelight, Yturri said
he envisioned apportioning;
the legislature under the new
plan in 1965, although the con
stitution does not require it
until 1971. This would prob
ably revise membership fig
ures as a basis for the 1971
apportionment.
