PORTLAND (UPI) - The
Budget - minded State Board of
Higher Education: has called a
special meeting one week after
the special session of the legis

The special session meets
Nov. 11.
Meanwhile, the board closed
a two-day meeting Tuesday by
telling state-supported schools to
cut some $1.5 million out of non-
teaching and student fund allo
cations. The way tne money
will be cut was left up to the
schools.
Such cutbacks would affect
fees paid to support student
government, athletics, and
campus press services. They al
so would reduce maintenance
and janitorial services.
William E. Walsh, chairman
of the board, said action on oth
er cuts would be held up until
after the legislature meets. Gov.

Chancellor Roy Lieuallen has
suggested holding faculty salar

enrollment to this year's levels.
Proposed cuts also would af
fect the University of Oregon
Medical School Hospital by cut
ting 46 beds and reducing the
number of patients receiving
crippled children's care. One
ward at the tuberculosis hospital
in Salem would be phased out
but Lieuallen said no one need

it.
A cutback of $8.2 million
would affect such items as edu

experiment station work and
forestry and fishery research.
One proposal called for rais

$25 a term.
Senator Says Drug
Prices Are Rigged
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Sen.
Maurine Neuberger, D-Ore., said
in a Senate speech Tuesday that
new evidence of price fixing m
the drug industry is "so rapa
cious as to make the infamous
international cartels of 1930's
blushing novices by compari
son." Mrs. Neuberger spoke as the
anti - monopoly subcommittee
confirmed it has received infor
mation from the New York Her
ald Tribune of price - fixing
agreements among leading drug
companies in the United States
and abroad.
The companies involved were
not named by the subcommittee
nor by the Herald Tribune, but
were understood to include
manufacturers In West Germany

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER
Court Will Seek
Action To Obtain
Route Designation
The Jackson County Court
this morning said it would send
letters to the Oregon State
Highway Department and the
Winnemucca-to-the-Sea High
way Association seeking action
on getting a U. S. route designa
tion for the highway.
"The Winnemucca - to - the
Sea highway is in good condi
tion and is as good as any in
the state, superior to any mid
Western federal highways,"
County Judge Earl M. Miller
said today.
Miller and County Commis
sioners Edwin Taylor and Don
ald E. Faber were protesting a
statement that "Highway De
partment officals have not yet
decided whether to try again to
get a U.S. route designation for
the Winncmucca-to-the-Sea high
way." Reason for Rejection
Reason given for the rejection
was that the route was not up to
acceptable standards of design
and construction.
Miller also protested a state
ment that the highway depart
ment refuses to recognize that
the highway exists. "The state
highway department certainly
recognizes the highway," he
said. Both Oregon and Nevada
have spent considerable money
on the construction of the high
way.
The American Association of
State Highway officials report
edly turned down the requested
route designation last week.
Miller said he would ask the
highway association to obtain
"factual data" to support the
contention the highway should
receive a route designation.

SALEM (UPI) Secretary of
State Howell Appling Jr. Tues

Warren Victim of
Demonstration at
Bar Testimonial
NEW YORK (UPI) Chief
Justice Earl Warren Tuesday
night was bombarded by leaf
lets and placards hurled at him
by demonstrators demanding
his impeachment.
The demonstration took place
as Warren and his wife were
leaving the New York Bar As
sociation Building where earlier
in the evening he was made an
honorary member of the organ
ization at a testimonial dinner.
The pickets, who said they
were members of "the move
ment to impeach Earl Warren,"
also booed Gov. Nelson Rocke
feller, who attended the dinner
but left the building separately
from the Warrens.
Neither Warren nor Rockefel
ler was hurt, and police moved
in quickly to keep the pickets
from the men.
Erode Freedoms
Walter Zalcski, who said he
was the leader of the organiza
tion which is based in Summit,
N.J., told newsmen the Supreme
Court's decisions "have helped
to erode our freedoms." He said
the group was not connected
with the John Birch Society.
The approximately 75 pickets
were waiting for Warren when
he arrived at the building with
his wife and daughter, Mrs.
John Daly.
During the dinner, he com
mented to association members
that "the honor guard is wait
ing for me."
"I had no trouble finding this
building," he told them. "In
my travels around the country
I often find such built -in re
ception committees."
He added that he thought it
was "a great thing that they
can do this in this country, whe
ther they really believe in it or
are being paid to do it."
Bids Called for
Work in Siskiyous
Bids for a 2.29 mile section
of Interstate 5 in the Siskiyou
mountains will be received by
the State Highway Commission
until Nov. 19, it was announced
today.
The section of grading will be
from the junction of the Siskiyou
Highway between U.S. 99 and
Oregon 66 south to the summit.
It will provide four 12-foot lanes
on a new alignment with the
summit approximately one-half
mile west of the present high
way. Interstate S will cross the
summit through a 200 foot cut
which will require moving about
two million cubic yards of ma
terial, highway department en
gineers explained.
The project will be approxi
mately two miles south of the
Wall Creek section now under
contract. The section to be
skipped at this time will include
structure for the Southern Pa
cific Railroad and Is not expect
ed to be let for contract until
next year.
The new Siskiyou Summit
project will begin about eight
miles south of A s h 1 a n d with
completion date set for May 1,
19G5.

II had tentatively agreed to de
militarize the disputed area on
their frontier pending further
talks.
The report, which was not im
mediately confirmed by other
delegations here, came shortly
after the two chiefs of state
broke an agenda deadlock and
finally began negotiating their
border conflict.
Meeting with Ben Bella and
Hassan were the two media
tors in the dispute which was
critically affecting North African
unity: Conference chairman Em
peror Haile Selassie of Ethiopia
and host Mali President Modibo
Keita. The four-power confer
ence opened this morning.
An initial deadlock over the
agenda prevented the two Quar
reling government leaders from
meeting face to face on their ar
rival Tuesday and had threat
ened to wreck the meeting be
fore its start.
Final Approval
Algerian conference sources
claimed that any decision
agreed to in principle at Bama
ko would be submitted to the 32-
nation Organization of African
Unity (OAU) for detailed discus
sion and final approval.
The Algerian claims were re
ceived with caution by obser
vers. Morocco so far has re
fused to pull its troops back
from the region around Hassi
Beida and Tinnyoub, 500 miles
southwest of Colomb Bechar,
and from the region of Tindouf,
350 miles farther to the south.
King Hassan's regime claims its
troops merely reoccupied terri
tory belonging rightfully to Mo
rocco.
The demilitarized zone ap
parently would mean the crea
tion of a temporary no-man's-land
or buffer zone, while the
OAU or another international
group would attempt to draw a
permanent frontier line along
the disputed stretches of the 700
mile common border between
Algeria and Morocco.

Cost of Living
Holding Steady
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
government reported today that
the cost of living, which had
been rising slightly, held steady
in September.
The consumer price index re
mained at the August figure of
107.1, the Labor Department
said, meaning that it cost $10.71
to buy the same goods and serv
ices that could be purchased for
$10 during the 1957-59 base pe
riod.
However, Arnold Chase, as
sistant commissioner of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, said
the September index was nine
tenths of one per cent higher
than the ycar-ago level.
Food costs last month showed
a drop from August. A market
basket of food that cost $10.60
in August could be purchased
for $10.54 in September, Chase
said.
Transportation costs dropped
four tenths of one per cent in
September, largely because of
lower prices for gasoline and
new cars. But residential rents,
fuel prices, housing upkeep, and
textile house furnishing all
moved up.

dismissed the idea as being ig
