Westerners May
Bid for Russian
Chemical Trade
MOSCOW (UPI) - Western
businessmen but no Ameri
cans were expected today to
uiu iur me estimated $14 pillion
in chemical plant business
opened up by the Soviet Union's
crasn program to build ud its
chemical industry.
Premier Nikita S. Khmsh.
chev, in announcing the $46 bil
lion seven-year plan before the
Communist Party Central Com
mittee meeting Monday, said
that much of the equipment
might have to be bought in the
West.
The meeting of the party
leadership continued today in
the Kremlin Hall of Congresses,
with lower-level officials adding
their comments to Khrush
chev's plan, which was seen as
certain of approval at the end
oi tne week.
Barred To Newsmen
The sessions were ban-he in
Western newsmen, but it was
noted in Soviet press coverage
that three Iod Cnmmunists
I'loi Kozlov, Mikhail Suslov,
and Otto V. Kuusinen have not
been mentioned in the proceed
ings. It was believed that all
are ill.
The United States appeared
to be out of contention for the
chemical equipment sales to
Russia because of its commer
cial credit policy. It does not
grant long-term credits in sales
to the Soviet Union because
Moscow has not paid its multi
billion dollar war debts.

ASUNCION. Paraeuav (UPI)
Seventy-two former residents

the United States to escape
what they regard as "excessive
taxes" are setting up house
keeping as . settlers in Para
guay. The immigrants traveled by
light plane to northern Para
guay, where a large area of
farmland had been set aside
for them. The last members of
the party arrived Tuesday.

Lake Boat
n;nMnnj t i. ...:n i t
Diamond Lake will have four
improved boat ramp facilities
ready for use next spring, ac
cording to Vondis E. Miller,
Umpqua National Forest super
visor.
Forest Service workmen won
a race against the weather bv
completing the project before
snow closed the high country
laie mis tail, Miller said. The
lake is a popular summer recre
ation spot 15 miles north of Cra
ter Lake, near Oregon 230.
Designed to withstand ice and
wave action, the boat ramps
consist of a heavy rock fill with
a layer of fine gravel topped by
concrete extending approximate
ly 30 feet into the lake. Pre-cast
concrete slabs slope into the wa
ter at the end of the fill, Miller
noted.
Range Transfer
To Boeing Nears
SALEM (UPI) -Transfer of
title of 48,000 acres of Navy
bombing range property near
Boardman is exuected to take
place later this week.
H. C. Saalfeld, director of the
State Veterans Affairs Depart
ment, saia ne received a copy
of the deed from the Navy
Tuesday.
Saalfeld is holding a $522,000
check for purchase of the land
until Navy officials formally
sign the deed.
He said "I hope wo can get
it sinned this week. I've looked
the deed over, and it seems all
right.'
Ownership of the proposed
; 100.000-acre industrial site was
transferred to the Veterans Af
fairs Department by the special
session of the legislature.
! Attorneys f o r Boeing Co.,
I which has signed a $4.6 million,
77-year lease for the property
but which has not yet activated
1 its lease have asked for details
of every transaction involved in
the state's purchase and ex
change of lands for the project.
Boeing has until Dec. 15 to
decide if it wants to exercise
lis lease. Boeing probably could
get an extension of this dead
line if it needed more time to
satisfy itself all legal require
ments had been met.

Last Words May Not

By Doomed Pilot
By ROBERT J. SEItLING

WASHINGTON (UPI) The
dramatic "Clipper 214 out of

flashed bv the nilot nf a
doomed Pan American World
Airways jet, may have come

A voice calmly answered:
"Clipper 214. . .going down in

Both the "out of control"
message and the "down in

UPI, actually were flashed in
stead by one of the pilots on
National Flight 16 which was in
a holding pattern over New
i-asiic, uel., at 6,000 feet 1,000
feet above the Pan American
jet.
Before what had been pre
sumed to be the "final mes.

informed the control center he
was "ready to go" - meaning

answer and the last positive

learned that lhe final message
probably came from another
plane when investigators ques

testimony may be the most vi
tal of all in the solution of the
tragedy, for they apparently
were the most reliable and clos

the field of medicine' will be
tested unoer a contract an
nounced Tuesday by the State

preservation of blood, bone mar
row and eye corneas and in the
field of transplanting human or
gans. Studies also arc under way
on the benefits of the drug to
agriculture.
Crown Zellerbach has been
producing the chemical for two

erties were discovered by Dr.
Stanley M. Jacob, an assistant
professor of surgery at the mcd

help from Crown Zellerbach (or
