Long-faced members of the Governor's Advisory Council on Civil Defense looked at a two-year budget that would slash the 18 - member state agency to three persons and agreed there was nothing else to do. The council told Stite CD Director Robert Standstrom to inform the federal govern ment that if it was able to match dollar -for -dollar the $54,000 alloted by the legisla ture that it probably would be able to carry out its three basic functions - the fallout shelter program, radiological monitoring and the attack warning and communication system. But members said even with those matching funds -for which assistant Defense Secretary S. L. Pittman has warned Oregon will not quali fy - the other functions of civil defense will have to be dropped. Votas Ono-Sidod Votes in both houses of the legislature to cut the agency were overwhelming. ' Apparently included in the slash were Oregon's 36 civil defense field hospitals and the surplus property program. Sandstrom said it probably would be up to the federal office to decide what to do about field hospital units. Gov. Mark Hatfield origi nally asked the legislature for $195,000. This, with federal matching funds, would have expanded the agency to 20 persons. With proposed state funds the agency would be left after June 30 with three persons. Hatfield charged the legis lature was guilty of "failure to uphold public responsibility." He charged: "The peace-at-any-price clan will rejoice at this decision. Those who sup port strong military prepared ness have failed to come forth. "I think this is a tragic day in Oregon." ' Effects Studied What effect the cutback will have on county CD or ganizations remained to be seen. The Portland City Council has voted to eliminate its city organization. Sandstrom said at least three counties - Klamath, Deschutes and Multnomah, are deleting funds for civil defense. Hi Jackson, Clackamas county director, pleaded with the council to retain es many CD functions as possible. In Washington, meanwhile, Sen. Wayne Morse lashed out Tuojday at the national CD program. In answer to a plea from the Defense Department for aid in getting the slashed Oregon CD funds restored, Morse said the action was evi dence of "increasing suspicion in our country that much of the civil defense program is unrealistic, wasteful, and tends to create a false security in case of nuclear war." Kentucky Voters Soundly Defeat Happy Chandler Louisville. Ky. cUPl Ed ward T. Breathitt Jr. left even his most ardent support ers a bit stunned today with the magnitude of his victory over A. B. (Happy) Chandler for the Democratic nomina tion for governor of Ken tucky. Facing In his first try for political office the man many Kcntuckians thought was un beatable, the 38-ycar-old Hop. kinsvllle attorney racked up a plurality that approached 60.000 votes. Returns from 2.512 of 3.017 precincts showed Breathitt with 284.749 votes to 228.136 for Chandler. Two other can didalrs polled 19.410 votes between them. Victory Apparent Early Breathitt's victory was ap parent within one hour anH one-half after the last polling places clojed. In countic; which traditionally had been Chandler strongholds, he either won or narrowed Chandler's margin consider ably. And In areas where It was thought Breathitt would win, he built up even larger pluralities than expected. Making the victory even more surprising was that only a year ago Breathitt was a virtual unknown. Although had served two terms In the stale legislature and had served as personnel commis sioner, his name was not fa- Common Aspirin Tablet To Bring on Internal Bleeding San Francisco - (UPD - The common aspirin tablet, long a household remedy for an as sortment of ailments, causes internal bleeding and may lead to ulcers and anemia, a Pennsylvania medical educa tor said Tuesday.

Chandler, on the other hand, probably was the best known man In the state. Harsh Defeat For Chandler it was a harsh defeat. In 13 previous races, he had lost only once. That was to Alben w. Bark ley In a race for the U.S. Sen- ate nomination in 1938. Chandler's career, one of the most successful In Kentucky politics, had spanned three decades. Now 64 years old. Chandler probably will not run again for slatcwide public office. In November. Breathitt will face Louis B. Nttnn. a Glas gow attorney who had only token opposition in the GOP primary and won handily. In Kentucky t h e Democratic nomination for governor usually Is tantamount to vic tory in the general election.

Dr. Roth also criticized, in his remarks at a University of California Symposium, the "Indifferent complacency" of physicians who know of the potentially harmful effects of aspirin. BOLT HITS CYCLIST Grenoble, France - (UPD -Angelo Frangiamone, 42, driv ing his motor scooter during a storm, was hit by lightning Tuesday and knocked into telephone cables 10 feet above the ground. Police cut him down a short time later. He was hospitalized with shock. He described experiments with human beings and ani mals which revealed that aspirin caused a high inci dence of ulceration of sensi tive body tissues and a sig nificant degree of internal bleeding. "Alth o u g h a teaspoonful isn't very much, it indicates that discrimination should be used in taking aspirin," Roth said. He added that bufferin or other compounds make little difference in the harmful ef fects of aspirin tablets. Roth said the blood loss was not dangerous unless a person suffered from anemia. But, he continued, some indi viduals will occasionally lose as much as three ounces of Regional Edition Medford, Page 2A Tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 1963 blood Internally without knowing it. Roth recommendf d against the use of aspirin l,y persons with such ailment , as peptic ulcers, gastritis oi any infla mation of the stomach or gas trointestinal tract.
