Court of Appeals by a 5-4 vote Friday upheld the contempt of Congress conviction of Harry Sachcr, New York defense attor ney in communist causes. Sacher's conviction was based on his refusal to tell the Senate Internal Security subcommittee in April 1955 whether he was then or ever had been a member of the Communist party. Another question which he re lusea to answer, ana which was made a count of the indictment against him, was whether he then was or had ever been a member of the lawyers' section of the Com munist parly. Sacher was convicted in federal district court here and received a sentence of six mouths in jail and a $1,000 fine. The Court of Appeals once be fore aflirmed the conviction, but the Supreme Court last June sent it back lor a new review in the light of its decision in (he Walkins case. The Watkins case ruling was that witness in a congressional hear-1 ing is entitled to an explanation ot why questions he is asked are pertinent to the matter under , Ilnrypr mi. study. Judge Warren m "r n . " the appeals court, rejected all contentions raised by Sacher. This included one that questions put to E.,-1 r,-,!. him infringed on rights under theiru"' CXplOSIOIl first Amendment to freedom o( expression and. presumably, free dum of association. Sacher did not claim Ihe Fifth Amendment privilege, but argued that under the First Amendment he had the right to refuse to dis cuss his "behels, religious, polit ical, economic, or social."

The board's statement endorsed earlier statements by Jansen and Board President Charles II. Sil ver that the grand jury may have been responsible for the suicide of George Goldfarb, principal of Brooklyn's John Marshall Junior High School, scene of two recent rapes and assaults on a police man and a gym instructor. Crimes in the integrated schools have involved both white students and Negroes including the rnpe of a 13-year-old white girl. The girl identified her attacker as a. Negro. I ' Goldfarb leaped to death from the roof of his apartment house Tuesday nt the time he was to make u third appearance before the grand jury. He assertedly told members of Ihe school board ear lier Hint he had been threatened with possible indictment. Nothing was said about the grounds on which Goldfarb might have been indicted. The grand jury denied having threatened Goldfarb and said it was being "maligned" by Ihe Board uf Education.

Spark man D-Ala) said Friday an anal ysis of President Eisenhower's ; housing recommendations shows lack of "any serious elfort" to meet the nation's housing prob lems. The recommendations, Spark man said, show "that the ad ministration is paying lip service to the attainment ot desirable social and . economic objectives and ill the same time trying to maintain the illusion that this can be done by cutting back import ant federal programs." "The net result will be failure in both attempts by providing too little too late," he added in a speech prepared for the Senate. Sparkman, chairman of the Senate Housing subcommittee, of fered seven steps he said were needed to make the administra tion's housing program effective. Eisenhower's housing proposals were sketched in his budget mes sage on Jan. 13. They will be spelled out in detail in a special message expected in February. One major administration pro posal calls for increasing the level at which the Federal Hous ing Administration can insure new home mortgages. Another recommends increasing the in terest rate on GI mortgages guar anteed by the Veterans Adminis tration to stimulate the flow of mortgage credit, for Korean War veterans. Eisenhower also proposed re peal of a law requiring FHA to regulate the size of discounts i charged by banks when they buy FHA - insured mortgages. The, housing industry has complained that the discount controls have tended to dry up mortgage credit.

C Of C Sets Fund Meeting A chamber of commerce sub committee has announced it will meet with local businessmen some time next week to discuss the possibility of raising $1,000 as part of the chamber's portion to main tain booths at sportsmen shows in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Requesting the money from the tourist promotion subcommittee of the Tourist and Convention Com mittee was Paul Danielson, man ager of the Bend chamber, who said that it was to the interest of both cities to participate in the shows promoting tourist travel on Highway 97. He pointed out that Bend has been to the Los Angeles show for the past seven years and has passed out innumerable folders telling of the scenic beauty of Bend and Highway 97. This year, Danielson has requested that the Klamath County chamber send per sonnel and literature to the shows, saying that since they shared a common interest, Highway 97. they must promote tourist travel be fore Highway 99 becomes a super highway. "Last year at the Los Angeles show." Danielson said, "we gave out 50,000 folders to people hun gry for' information about South ern Oregon. In spite of.the amount of folders we had, we fan out two days before the show closed." This year for the first time, the Bend chamber is buying a booth in San Francisco's huge Cow Pal ace, which is hosting the show, February 28 through March 8. "We must - make our pitch to the our and one-half million peo ple in the Bay Area who are just a day's drive away," Danielson continued. He expressed deep con cern that too many tourists driv ing north take Highway 99 at Weed instead of Highway 97. "If we can educate the people of Los Angeles and San Francisco now. we may not have to worry about the future," said Danielson. Weather Table By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS 24 hours to 4:30 a. m. Friday.

SUNDAY, FEB. 9 School Head Cites Difference Between Red, U.S. Education County Superintendent of Schools Carrol Howe told members of the Kiwanis Club Thursday that our race for leadership with the So viet Union has placed an unprec edented emphasis on education, and that we are now at several educational crossroads. He pointed out that the American and Russian educational systems and purposes are vastly different, and that we must appraise our system from all angles if we are competing with the Russians for scientific training leadership. "In the first place," he said, "we must realize that in Russia there are only two primary courses of secondary and advanced study; that Jeading to scientific achieve ment and that which prepares a student to become a member of the political elite, "Second, there is no choice. The field in which a promising student will study is determined by the state. "And third, the field of higher education is reserved for those who prove themselves capable of Obituary ALDRIDGE Mrs. Eva Aldridge. native of New Pine Creek, died in Lake view on January 30.

For example, only 13 per cent of the beginning stu dents in Russia are ever gradu ated from high school. In our country the figure is 75 per cent." He said the American public is going to have to determine wheth er we will give up some of our choices as a means of competing with the Russians in the scientific fields. He pointed out that our system of education is for the public in general, and that education is de signed for both the mediocre and the exceptional student. "We have a much broader choice of occupations," he said, "and the student and his family are able to make that choice. Our government is run by the people," he emphasized, "and we-must ed ucate the people to take part in the government. The Russian peo ple do not have to be educated to administer a democracy; they do not have a democracy and their government is administered for them by the select few." He pointed out that the freedom of choice in our educational field and in other scopes is vitally nec essary to the continuance of our way of life, and that if we wish to have more students pursue sci entific studies we may have to al ter our sense of values. "That is," he said, "what induce ment will be offered the student?" He explained that much of our way of life is based on prestige, and that a student has his own pat tern of prestige. "If we are to place the premium on educational achievement," he said, "the case is going to have to be such that a student will value ! a prize winning essay as highly as a pocket full of spending money. His being on the honor roll will be as significant as having a car, and his perfecting a scientific exhibit will be as important in the eyes of students as the winning of an athletic letter." Howe cited another difference. The average American student is educated today for his own bet terment and the security of his own future. In Russia, all students are educated for the future of the state. Paul's Bull Pen 205 North 8th Next to Safeway!
