Norblad wrote Coon, "to please be assured that upon your election lo congress, mat aa a member of the Committee on Com mittees, I shall do everything Pos sible to try to obtain you a place on ine committee on Agriculture. " Birong support of Coon for the appointment emanates from his long experience and Interest In the problema of Oregon Agriculture ana irom ine job ne aid as cnatr man of the Senate Agriculture Committee during the last session of the Oregon legislature, was the opinion expressed by , Republican leaders, up as security for the loan. The company said the stock was delivered to the government only as securny. This net off a transcontinental court battle that aaw Secretary of Commerce Sawyer cited by the U. a. Appeals Court here for con tempt. Bawyer not Into the picture as chief government administrator ol the line. The Appeals Court upheld a District Court order that Sawyer turn over the stock to the Dollar Interests, Bawyer refused and appealed the contempt charge to the Supreme Court. The high court never got around to a ruling. The agreement between Sawyer and the Dollar Interests last June to sell the government held stock made a Supreme Court ruling unnecessary. The sale agreement provided: 1. The stock would be sold through competitive sealed bidding. 2. It no bid reached 14 million dollars the government and the Dollar Interests would split the stock 50-50. 3. The government and the Dollar interests will split the pro ceeds ol any successlul bid 50-50, the government share to go to the U. 8. Treasury. 4.

Debate on Korea In me oenerai Assembly's key Political Commit ter ha been, susrjended since last Friday, when V. S. Secretary of State Dean Acheson delivered1 a three-hour "oral white book" ac cusing Russia of planning, arming and toucmng on me Korean agrea sion. Delegates to the 60-natlon com mittee met briefly yesterday, but adjourned two minutes later when no speakers came forward. All other countries preferred to wait until after the Russian has spoken. The next committee meeting waa set for tomorrow afternoon. There was speculation that VI- shlnsky may have wanted to con fer with th Kremlin on some of the major policy points In his ex pected rebuttal of the Acheson charges. The American delegation, mean while, scotched persistent reports that talks are going on behind the scenes, or are being arranged through Intermediaries, between the U.
