The ICC said most of the con gestion around Northwest ports that led to the embargo Oct. 13 has been cleared away. An unusually heavy shipment of grain had resulted in an es timated 8,000 cars accumulating on Oregon and Washington sid ings. The normal buildup Is about 3,500 cars, and the ICC reported 3,236 remained Wednes day. The others have been un loaded Into ships and elevators. Permit Loading ' Paul Gridor, supervisor of the ICC's section car service, said removal of the ban will allow traders to cosign shipments to Columbia river and Pugot Sound ports and will permit free load ing. When the embargo was an nounced, there was speculation that the buildup had been stimu lated by the pending wr(c(at sale lo Russia. This proved Untrue, but the Soviet deal' apparently contributed indirectly by hiking wheat prices. The U. S. Department of Ag riculture has reported that prices of most classes of wheat are above loan rates and that wheat in storage was down to 1,047 bushels as of Oct. 1. That is tho smallest holding since 1957, the USDA said. Ford 52',. General Dynamics .... 2Mt General Electric 83 General Foods 87 General Motors 873,4 General Portland Cement 22 Georgia Pacific 54 !

(UPI) - An explosion shattered a neighbor hood drug store Thursday night Possibility of Social Center lor Youth Discussed The possibilities of developing within the YMCA a Social Cen ter of the type desired by teen agers, and within their abilities to operate, were discussed at the YMCA this week by 35 teen agers and 10 adults. No decision was reached but a planning ses sion was scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 2. Groups represented at the meetinc, over which Herb Part ridge of the YMCA board pre sided, included most of the dance bands that have been en tertaining for students. Present were members of the lll-Y boys, Tri-Hi-Y girls club, St. Mary's Hich School and a group of stu dents who have been leading dis cussions and laying plans for a teen-age center. PnrtndRe presented the cur rent program for teen-agers. and introduced Dennis H a i e mnn, who has accepted the po sition of adult advisor in plans to reorganize a YMCA Youth Council. Bob Jones, general secretary of Ihe YMCA, explained the manner in which the YMCA's policies ore determined and told the youths that they couin lor mulntc and run their own pro gram under the board's policies. Jones also explained that Youth projects usually cost more money than the students can provide and have lo be sub sidized. The United Crusade subsidizes the Youth work of the YMCA beyond the funds pro vided by the members, Jones emphasized. Bntcmnn extended an invita tion to the students lo assist in tho formation of a Youth Social etivities Council within t h c YMCA. The group, hennded by Terry Bowles, withheld its decision. A place to call their own with Ihe opportunity to drop in alter school, after the ball game, and after a show, for dancing and food, was the desire expressed by Ihe students who have been connected with the move for es tablishment of a cenier. at the height of a Halloween costume judging contest killing seven persons and injuring scores of others. Rescue workers pulled the seventh victim from the rubble of Atherton's Drug Store early today. He was identified as Terry Carter, 7. He had last been seen entering the store with his father. "They were holding hands when they walked in," said the youngster's uncle, John Carter. "They were going to buy Terry a mask." The boy's 33-year-old father also was killed by the blast. T h e explosion, believed caused by gas leaking from a heater located in a shallow basement near the front of the store, sent splintered glass, chunks of concrete and other debris hurtling across the street toward the square. People standing on the side walk watching the festivities were knocked over and the body of one victim was hurled into the street. Twenty-seven persons were treated (or injuries at Kcnne stone Hospital. Nine were hos pitalized in serious condition. Shopping Rush The. blast happened at 6:25 p.m. Thursday during the attcr- working-hours shopping rush in this suburban town of 25,000 and brought fire engines and ambulances rushing into the square where masked young' sters were competing in a cos tume contest. "It was like a jet breaking the sound barrier," said high school student Barry Hill who was sitting with some friends in a car near the store when the blast occurred. "Oh, it was 50 times louder than that. "We all ducked our heads and glass from the windows in the store embedded in our car. When we looked over there, there was nothing. . .everything just collapsed. . .it all collapsed on people." Foreman Slapped Down for Calling Colleague Pinko' WASHINGTON (UPI) - There's no quicker way to make a congressman see red than to call him "pinko." Rep. Ed F. Foreman, R-Tex., at 29 the youngest member of the House, discovered that Thursday night when he was reprimanded and ordered to take his seat by House Speaker John W. McCormack, D.-Mass., for terming a colleague a "pinko." Foreman, who describes him self as a "concerned Conserva tive American," had attempted to "clarify" his reported charge that about 20 of his colleagues are "pinkos." A similar charge led to an altercation of sorts earlier this week with a fellow member of the Texas delega tion, Democrat Henry B. Gon zalez. "For some of you who may have been called pinkos in the newspapers," Foreman began, "I will try to explain just who was and who wasn't covered in those charges." A brace of his irate col leagues rose to the attack. Rep. Ross Bass, D-Tenn., assailed "sanctimonious groups" and "certain members" of the House who have been traveling around charging that other members have been voting against the Constitution. He said he hoped somebody labeled Pinko would sue. Rep. Wayne L. Hays, D-Ohio, said Foreman himself was using Communist tactics. Foreman later attempted to continue his explanation. "The fact of the matter is," he said in a prepared speech, "I have only referred to one member of this body as a pinko. On Friday, Oct. 18, dur ing a speech in San Jose, Calif., I referred to the gentle man from California as Don "Pinko" Edwards." He refer red to Rep. Don Edwards, D Calif., who threatened to sue Foreman if he did not re tract his charge. In the speech he didn't get to give, Foreman said that after his San Jose address a report er asked him why he called Edwards a Pinko. "Because of his down-the-Iine, ultra - liberal, left wing voting record," he said he. replied. Then the reporter asked if Foreman thought there were other mem bers in the same category. Foreman said yes, and identi fied them as 20 members who voted against appropriations for the House Committee on Un American Activities. Regional Edition Medford.
