ESPIONAGE ACTIVITY The FBI released these pictures
Monday whicti purport to show, espionage activity of Gen
nadiy G. Sevastyanov, an attache at the Russian Embassy,
who was ordered expelled from this country by the State
Department. He is accused of attempting to coerce "John",
a native Russian who is about to receive U.S. citizenship
and who works for the U.S. government. "John's'' brother,
Volodya, using the false name of Vladimir I. Gridnev,
was brought over from Russia to assist Sevastyanov in
Vote Tabulating
System Will Be
Tested in State
Salem -(UPI)- An electronic
vote tabulating system that
could revolutionize Oregon's
election procedures will be
given a test run at the State
Fair here this summer, Sec
retary of State Howell Ap
ping Jr. said today.
He said if the test is suc
cessful, it could lead to an
overhaul of balloting methods
within the next two or three
years.
The 1963 legislature, at Ap
pling's request, approved a
measure - w h i c h authorizes
such tests.
Plans for the test were
drafted Monday at a meeting
with Dr. Joseph P. Harris,
professor emeritus of politi
cal science at the University
of California.
Six Polling Booths
Appling said the system,
developed by Harris, will be
tested at six poling booths to
be set up at the fairgrounds.
He said each booth would
represent a different precinct,
and he hoped to get from 10,
000 to 20,000 ballots.
The system utiizes a small
device into which a data proc
essing machine card is insert
ed. Voters, instead of mark
ing an "X" on a ballot, use
a stylus to punch holes in the
data card.
The cards then are fed
through a processing machine
which tabulates the results.
The system was demonstrat
ed to lawmakers during the
recent legislative session.
Appling described the sys
tem as "the most significant
development in the election
field in more than 100 years."

Salem-IUPD-The signing of
a $4.6 million, 77-year lease
with Boeing Co. for the 100,-000-acre
Boardman Space Age
Industrial Park was postpon
ed Monday because of a tech
nicality. A special meeting of the
State Land Board was recess
ed until Wednesday to allow
time to study technical lan
guage in the resolution which
will implement the lease be
tween the state and Boeing,
Boeing Co. attorneys ques
tioned the wording.
The delay was the second
encountered at the session.
When the meeting convened

Police Chief Rod Roscnbaum
tossed a tear gas grenade.
Weinstcin appeared in mu

dance without a license. Judge
Paul Glines fined him $25,
with $15 of it to apply on

Secretary of State Howell
Appling Jr. and State Treas
urer Howard Belton officiat
ed. When the postponement
came after three hours of dis
cussion between state and
Boeing Co. attorneys, Appling
announced both the state and
Boeing had reached agreement
on the lease, and the recess
was only for the settlement
of the technical question in'
volved in the resolution. Sign
ing of the lease will cap three
years' work on the project to
develop the park.
Sam Mallicoat, director of
the Oregon Department of
Planning and Development,
said agreements on the land
transfers had been reached
with all federal agencies, and
were expected to be formal
ized within 90 days.
As soon as the lease Is
signed, Boeing will be able
to enter the property for sur
vey work, Mallicoat said.
He said agreement with the
Navy on the cost of relocating
its bombing range was achiev
ed several weeks ago. The
state paid the Navy $580,000
for its facilities, Mallicoat
said. The Navy asked
$650,000.
The lease also contains a
provision that the state gets
half of any revenue charged
by Boeing if it subleases any
part of the property.
The lease, which runs to
2020, can be canceled by Boe
ing on Dec. 31, lj70, and at
10-year intervals thereafter.
The lease fee includes quar
terly $15,000 payments, a sur-
rental of $35,000, and an
agreement on the cost of mov
ing the Navy's facilities. Boe
ing win pay for the mov
ing costs, or $75,000, which
ever is smaller.
Robert Jewett, vice presi
dent and assistant general
manager of the Boeing Aero

Howard Morgan
Criticizes Hatfield
Portland - IUPD - Howard
Morgan, retiring Federal Pow
er commission member who
has been mentioned as a pos
sible 1966 candidate for gov
ernor, had some words of crit
icism for Gov. Mark Hatfield
Monday.
Morgan, here on a short
vacation, said he was "aston
ished" to learn Hatfield had
allowed 20 measures to be
come law without signature.
If a Democratic governor had
done that, he said, he would
have been accused of "cow
ardice" by the opposition par
ty and by newspapers.
The former Democratic
3tate chairman indicated he
has given thought to the gov
ernor's race in three years.
He said things to be consid
ered in making i decision
were hit finances and the
"apparent disarray and con'
fusion of politico in Oregon."

Different People
Being Involved
In Forest Fires
A different group of peo
ple are becoming involved in
the man caused forest and
brush fires, forestry officials
told the Keep Oregon Green
committee and guests yester
day. "Ordinary people are caus
ing the big share of these fires
as the lew foothills are being
settled," Curtis Nesheim, dis
trict warden. Southwest Ore
gon district, remarked. "Most
of the fires reported in Jose
phine county last year were
within a 12-mile radius of
Grants Pass."
This means an educational
program is needed to warn
the people about causing
fires. Law enforcement is the
last resort, he added. How
ever, there are 9 or 10 burn
ing permit cases scheduled
before the Grants Pass jus
tice court this month, he said.
Causes Few Fires
Forestry officials agreed
that the logger now causes
few if any forest or brush
fires, and has a valuable re
serve of equipment and per
sonnel for fighting any fires
which may break out.
Robert Torheim, fire con
trol officer in the Rogue
River National forest, said in
the national forest recrea
tionisls are the biggest cause
of man-caused fires. Unat
tended camp fires followed by
careless smokers are the two
main contributors. However,
it is difficult to pin down a
fire cause to smoking, he
added.
The 1963 blow down in the
Prospect and Union Creek
areas will be a major fire
hazard, particularly since the
down timber is near the road,
forestry officials said.
Al Wisendanger, Salem, of
the state Keep Oregon Green
committee, displayed signs,
litter bags, neckties and vari
ous items to promote the slo
gan, "Keep Oregon Green."

Labor Leader's
Demand Enrages
Prime Minister
Name-Calling Flares
In Commons Debate
London-IUPH-Prime Minister
Harold Macmillan angrily de
fended his part in the "third
man" security case today in
a bitter, name-calling House
of Commons debate.
Opposition Labor party
leader Harold Wilson enraged
Macmillan by demanding he
appoint a minister of security
to end the nation's series of
security scandals.
Macmillan pigeon-holed the
demand and accused Wilson
of "invective and insolence."
The parliamentary battle
erupted over Monday s revela
tion that Harold Philby, for
mer British diplomat In Wash
ington, was indeed the "third
man" whose tipoff allowed
turncoat diplomats Guy Bur
gess and Donald MacLcan to
skip behind the Iron Curtain.
Philby Removed
Macmillan said the Burgess
and MacLcan flight occurred
in 1951 under a Labor govern
ment. When Macmillan's Con
servative party came to pow
er, he said, Philby was "got
rid of.
The Laborites derided Mac
millan for denying in 1955
when Macmillan was foreign
secretary that Philby was
the "third man ' In the Wash
ington Embassy who tiped off
Burgess and MacLean. Today
Macmillan said his 1955 an
swer was based on informa
tion then available.
The Laborites jeered.
Forced by Papers
Wilson charged that "Amer
ican newspaper revelations"
forced Macmillan's Lord
Privy Seal, Edward Heath, to
announce Monday that Philby
was the "third man." Labor
M.P. P. Arthur Henderson de
manded to know if- President
Kennedy got a report from
Macmillan on the Philby case
and Britain's other security
woes.
Macmillan referred Hender
son to his Sunday joint com
munique with Kennedy. The
communique did not mention
any such item in their week
end talks at Macmillan's coun
try house.
In another security case,
Dr. Giuseppe Mcrtelli, an Ital
ian nuclear physicist, pleaded
innocent here today to charges
that he planned to spy for the
Soviet Union. Martelli work
ed on an atoms-for-peace pro
gram at the government's Har
well Nuclear Research Sta
tion. Khrushchev Again
Calls for Treaty
Berlin-H'PIt-Soviet Premier
Nikita Khrushchev said today
the "Damocles sword of war"
still hangs over the world and
once again called for conclu
sion of a German peace
treaty.
But he . again refrained
from setting a deadline for
the signing of such a treaty.
In his speech to an East
German rally, Khrushchev
once again reaffirmed his pol
icy of peaceful coexistence
with the West. The remarks
assumed special importance
because of their timing, al
most on the eve of the sched
uled meeting in Moscow of
Soviet and Chinese Commu
nist leaders to discuss their
ideological differences.
Clackamas Budget
Lists Civil Defense
Oregon Clty-IUPIi-The Ctaefe
amas county budget will in
clude $12,118 for civil defense
a slight decrease from the last
fiscal year, Commissioner Dar-
rcll Jones said Monday.
Junes said the county would
be subject to a federal claim
for material and equipment
valued at $275,000 purchased
through Civil Defense if the
program was canceled.
He said a scheduled salary
increase from $7,200 to $7,600
for CD Director H. I. Jackson
will be disallowed, his office
secretary will be placed on a
half-time status and a new car
purchase will be deleted.

extension of the bracero program, said the three-year plan
would require a less "drastic and sudden adjustment."
The new proposal would end the program Dec. 31, 1966.
From 1964 through 1966 the number of incoming Mexican
farm workers would be limited to half the average number
permitted in three previous fiscal years. However, it also
would set a maximum of 150,000 in 1964, 120,000 in 1965, and
90,000 in 1966.
Gathings, chairman of the agriculture subcommittee which
approved the two-year extension rejected by the House, said
discontinuance of the program would result in a shortage of
workers and an increase in food prices.
Teague, a member of the agriculture committee, said tha
success of efforts to extend the program would depend "pure
