There is always the possibility that this Egyptian ruckus might end in war and avoiding war is the GREAT prob lem of this generation. Besides a red hot new proposal has been tossed into the works, The proposal itself if basically simple. It calls for an association of the principal governments whose ships use the canal. This associa tion would provide pilots (naviga tion of the canal is a complicated job requiring great skill) and would collect tolls for the ships. The tolls would be SHARED with Egypt, whose government would OWN and maintain the canal itself. The Western Big Three (Britain, France and the U.S.) would seek to line up 15 other countries, all of whom want the canal oper ated internationally, to back the proposal. Egypt would then be asked for its prompt cooperation, without long diplomatic negotia tions. So much for the proposal, Here comes the BITE: To test Egypt's attitude, a ship from one of these countries with a veteran Suez pilot on deck would ask permission to enter the canal. If Egypt refuses per missionwhich she is expected to do she would then be accused of violating her pledge to keep the waterway open at all times to ships of every country. The proposition seems to have considerable soap on it. At any rate, it sent Man on Horseback Nasser into an immediate confer ence wth his henchmen in Cairo. The conference lasted late into last night. When it broke up, Nasser re mained mum, but an Egyptian "spokesman" branded it at once as a "provocation leading to war against Egypt." He said it seems intended to PROVOKE EGYPT TO FIGHT. Nehru, buddy of Russia and Egypt, denounced the plan. All this indicates that the pro posal is a smartie. If it had been dumb, Nasser and his crowd would have-laughed it off scornfully, You will note; of course, that we joined with the British and the French in making the proposal. Ones that mean that if it should lead to war with Egypt we would be dragged in? Secretary Dulles (who is gener ally credited- with devising the scheme) told reporters at a press conference held in Washington this morning the United States has no intention of "shooting its way through the Suez canal in the event Egypt should block the pas sage of ships. . He added that in such an event the U.S. would favor diverting its ships around Africa, regardless of the higher cost that would be in volved. "Diplomatic informants" in Washington (meaning VIP's who are in the know but decline to be identified by name) say the U.S. would be willing to ship substan tial quantities of Western Hemis phere oil to Europe to offset any temporary shortage created by the long haul around Africa. These sources add that dollar loans to Britain, France and oth er countries affected by the long er, costlier oil haul from the Mid dle East, would be considered by us to help meet the added cost of buying oil from dollar areas. Let's not kid ourselves. In this cold war period, shoot ing war can start at any time when Russia feels that she is rea dy for it. But In that event Russia won't need any pretext. If she feels that she is ready to start conquering the world, she'll just start shooting. In the meantime, however, capable negotiating is IMMENSELY im port ant. If shooting war can be stalled off long enough, it may never come. Nine Plead Not Guilty Nine persons arrested in a se ries of Klamath County gambling raids last week entered pleas of not guilty Thursday to charges of selling lottery tickets. District Judge D. E. Van Vactor acceded to a request by Defense Attorney Edwin E. Driscoll to be allowed additional time to decide whether each of the defendants will be tried with or without a jury. The raids were made on tav erns and pool halls by state po lice at the request ol Mamatn County District Attorney Richard Beesley. Subsequently. Beesley said he was determined to rigidly enforce state gambling laws. None of the defendants were in court . Thursday morning when their cases were set for pleading. Attorney Driscoll, on behalf of his ninr clients, entered pleas of not guilty. Judge Van Vactor set bail at sion each. Driscoll said he ould post the bail. State police are holding 200 punch boards and 10 slot machines seized irthe raids. Briton Says Country To Defend Plan LONDON I Foreign Secre tary Sclwyn Lloyd Thursday told Parliament the proposed new Su ez Canal Users' Association had the full support of the United States. Lloyd defended by-passing the United Nations originally in the dispute. He declared it was obvi ous Soviet Russia would veto any suggestion for international oper ation of the waterway. The foreign secretary made plain the Eden government has no intention of backing down in its open feud with Egypt's President Nasser. RESPONSIBILITY ' "The responsibility is ours and we shall discharge it," he de clared. "We are not prepared to let unrestricted control of the op eration of this canal pass into the hands of one government or one man. Upon, that issue we are not prepared to compromise. Just before Commons began the second day of an emergency de bate on the Suez situation, the French disclosed Premier Guy Mollett had received a personal message from Soviet Premier Bulganin. Prime Minister Eden also re ceived a personal message from Bulganin, whose government has been supporting Nasser all down the line. Though details were not disclosed, French and British dip. lomatic sources said the Soviet leader was telling the two West era powers in a friendly way to take it easy. NO MESSAGE At Gettysburg, Pa., White House secretary James C. Hagerty said President Eisenhower so far had received no message from Bul ganin on Suez. Egypt cabled the United Nations in an effort to counter the West's bid for world opinion. Egypt charged Britain and France who formally advised the Security Council Wednesday that Egyptian actions might block free passage must bear responsibility for any snag in shipping growing out of a walkout of foreign pilots and teen nicians. Taunts Lead To Shooting PENDLETON Wl Taunts flung on the streets of Pendleton early Thursday resulted in a shooting that killed William Mancanares Jr.. 27. Tacoma. Dist. Atty. John Walker said Hollis Carl Doe, 30, Pendleton, I came into the police station vol uniaruy auerwmug aim auiuiticu the shooting. Doe is being held for investiga tion. Walker said he had pieced to gether this story: Doe, a Negro, stopped his car on the west side of Pendleton to talk to some women he saw there about 3 a.m. Mancanares and three others were in another car, talking to the women. A dispute arose, and the others began taunt ing Doe, who first tried to climb into the others' car, and then fired a shot into the back seat before the four drove off. The car carrying the four men was siuppeu lur a umuu viuib tion. At the police station officers were told of the wounded man. He was dead on arrival at a hos pital. Doe gave himself up at the po lice station later, turning over a .22 caliber single-shot pistol. With Mancanares were William Clifton Arms, 22, Tacoma, the driver: Richard Shawaway, 29, Pendleton, and Gerry Enick, 27, Puyallup, Wash. W " r)) m SERIOUSLY INJURED EARLY LAST NIGHT w J.mei E.

Wayne Morse." The supplement, as the original publication, contains reprints from various sources which the committee says shows conflicts in Morse's position on a number of issues. And at Salem Thursday, Sen. Richard L. Neuberger said the Re publican State Committee "should repudiate the candidacy of Gov. Elmo Smith because of his shock ing record in the state Senate." PREPARED STATEMENT - In a prepared statement dis tributed at a press conference, Neuberger said Smith's record is "shot through with opposition to civil rights, opposition to the United Nations, opposition to nec essary legislative support of our public schools and colleges of higher education, opposition to the foreign trade policies of the Eisen hower administration, opposition to the aspirations of our elderly people." Sen. Morse Wednesday took is sue with an Interior Department press release which Morse said attempted to credit Douglas Mc Kay with a $5,721,000 appropria tion for expansion of tourist facili ties at Crater Lake National Park. McKay, Republican Candidate opposing Morse in next month's general election, formerly was In terior secretary, PARK PLANS Morse said "it took an election year to get McKay and the White House to hear the voice of the National .Park Service and the voice of the- people. After three years of low-budget requests, new plans finally were laid in this election year." He added that it took the Democratic-controlled 84th Congress to get the Crater Lake appropriation. Morse also said that when Mcn Kay headed ' the Interior Depart ment, "the first thing McKay did was to slash the Truman budget for the national parks by almost $4.000.000 It is interesting to note that the White House has re cently displayed a sudden inter est m national parits. u is per- fectly obvious that it will take Democratic . controlled Congress to carry out the much-needed parks rehabilitation plan.'

Non-Use Of Canal Eyed, Dulles Says WASHINGTON I Secretary of State Dulles said Thursday the United States has no intention of shooting its way through the Suez Canal if Egypt blocks the passage of ships. Dulles told a news conference tho United States would favor di verting its vessels around Africa under such conditions, regardless of the extra cost involved. He said the U.S. government is ready to consider dollar loans to friendly countries which might be Egyptians Take Crisis Side To UN CAIRO. Egypt W) Egypt carried her side of the Suez crisis to the U.N. Thursday, charging Britain and France must bear re sponsibility for any obstruction in shipping resulting from a pending walkout of foreign pilots and technicians. This appeared aimed to counter the declaration of Britain and France in a letter to the Security Council president Wednesday that Egypt's attempt to end the sys tem of international operation might endanger free passage of the canal. A walkout of about 100 expert foreign pilots, timed for tomor row night, may be the showdown on whether Egypt is able to oper ate the canal. A stoppage oft canal operations could bring the crisis to a head. But an Egyptian official de clared, "Navigation will con tinue." The pilots gave notice yesterday shortly before British Prime Min ister Eden, in the House of Com mons, and French Premier Guy Mollet, on radio and television made the new plan public and claimed U.S. support. The proposed association of principal canal using countries would hire its own pilots, coordi nate canal traffic, collect tolls . and make "an appropriate .uyyinauCi. to Egypt. Eden pieagea suen further steps as seem to be re-1 quired" if Egypt interfered with the plan. He spoke against "ab ject appeasement. Col. Abdel K a d e r Hatem Egypt's official spokesman, called the proposal "provocation leading to war against Egypt," declar ing: "It is clear the aim of this pro posal is to create a situation which would result in armed aggression against Egypt ... It also seems this plan is intended to provoke Egypt to fight."

The embassy said the ambassa dor told Dulles: "If the U.S. desires war then she may support this scheme but ' if her desire is to work for a peaceful solution, the scheme has , to be abandoned."
