Newspaper Page TextU OF OREGON LIBRARY EU3ENE, ORE. COiP la The- Day's News By FRANK JENKINS What's the big news today? As this is written, there is none (or which lei us be duly thank ful. The BIG news is apt to be BAD news. Needle-in-haystack note: Search planes and ships are making a final sweep of the South Atlantic today for a tiny mouse and the rocket nose cone that car ried the mouse through space and (presumably) carried it back again. Try this: Imagine, if you can. the VAST expanse of the South Atlantic ocean. Then imagine an object about the size and shape of the cylinders in which liquid gas is delivered to the customer. Then TRY to imagine the task ef finding an object of that size in an area of that almost unimagin able magnitude. By comparison, finding the needle in Ihe haystack would be easy. Why is finding this object so Important? It's like this: It is relatively easy to shoot an object (say a missile) beyond the earth's atmosphere. It is quite dif ficult to bring it back to earth again because at the high speeds at which it -will return (because of the pull of gravity) the friction of the air will burn it up unless an unburnable material can be found. Conclusion: We're seeking an unburnable material. In such a search, expe riments are necessary. We're do ing the experimenting. If we don t find such a material, maybe the Russians will. That would give them a big advantage in missile warfare. What of the mouse? The mouse was put in to give us an idea as to whether it will be possible someday to send a human being out into space and bring him back again safe and sound. Why do we want to do that? Well, why did Columbus sail off Into the then dreaded and AWFUL space beyond the horizon of the Western, ocean? The answer: i He wanted to find nut whether human beings could do it and COME BACK. The only way to find out was to TRY. Human be ings are strange animals, aren't they? More about human beings: The teletype report this morning contains this terse item: "Russia's greatest soccer slap Eduard Streltsov will no longer lead his team to victory. The paths of glory led him today In a 12 year prison sentence for AS SAULT AND HOOLIGANISM." What happened? The answer is simple. Some people can take success In stride. Some can't. It goes to their heads and ruins them. They think they're so big they can do anything and get away with it. Streltsov was one of this tribe. It's at least interesting to know that Russians act that way too. They AREN'T supermen. They're just human beings. Lakeview Mine Picketed In Union Naming Dispute By .10 DEEI.Y i LAKEVIEW Development work st the White King mine, property of Ihe Lakeview Mining Company, had virtually come to a stop to day because of a picket line es tablished by members of the Unit ed Mine Workers, District 50.

(AP) Specially equipped ships and planes continued searching the Atlantic today but hope dimmed that Wickie the space mouse would be recovered inside a nose cone after , an interconti nental range flight. The tiny white mouse was en closed in the nose cone of a Thor- Able rocket that streaked 6.000 miles through space Wednesday. The recovery unit resumed the search in the south Atlantic near Ascension Island, but Air Force officials said today's effort prob ably would be the last attempt to find the nose cone. The hunt was called off tempo rarily last night when darkness closed in and the searchers failed to receive signals from a beacon transmitter inside the nose cone recovery package.

There will not be any election next week," Salam said. His state ment dealt a heavy blow to hopes for an early settlement of the Le banese crisis. Parliament is sche duled to meet Thursday to elect a successor to Chamoun. The Lebanese revolution will not permit the holding of any pres idential election in .the shadow of tanks, planes and fleets of for eign troops," Salam told news men. House Chiefs Crack Down On Vast Debt WASHINGTON (AP) House leaders, faced with an immediate rise in the national debt ceiling. are cracking down on deficit fi nancing of legislative programs wnicn ana to me government s al ready vast debt. First result of the crackdown has been the sidetracking by the House Rules Committee of a bill calling for a two-billion-dollar community public works loan pro gram to be financed out of Treas ury borrowings. The practice, commonly fol lowed to finance programs call ing for federal loans, bypasses the House Appropriations Commit tee. Instead of voting direct ap propriations. Congress authorizes the lederal agency concerned to borrow the necessary funds from Ihe Treasury.- The Treasury in turn then must borrow the mon ev. thereby increasing the public debt. Concern over this form of puh-lic-debt financing has been height ened by word that Secretary of the . Treasury Anderson is due to come before Congress Monday to request another hike. in the debt ceiling. The legal debt limit, already raised temporarily to 280 billion dollars, would go up lo 288 bil lions if the Treasury's request is granled. The all-time high was a ceiling of 300 billion dollars in the latter part of World War II. 15 To Vie In Beauty Finals LONG BEA"CH, Calif.

Photo by DeVere Telephone TU 4-8111 No. 6131 Salam did not explain how he intended to prevent the election. Rut it was generally assumed the election will not be held unless there is prior agreement between the government and the opposi tion on a compromise candidate. .Meanwhile, a U.S. Navy spokes man said no American planes have been shot down by antiair cralt lire from Syria. He was commenting on an an nouncement from Damascus Thurs day that an unidentified jet fight er plane was shot down while in truding on the air space of the United Arab Republic. The Syrian announcement elaimed the down ed plane crashed and burned in Lebanese territory. All was quiet with the U.S. Ma rines in Lebanon Thursday night, a Marine spokesman reported. On previous nights U.S. troops have been harassed by rebel sniper fire, but the only fatality report ed was a Marine killed by one of his own sentries when he did not answer a challenge. In Cairn, an Egyptian editor who accompanied President Nasser on his secret flight to Moscow quot ed Soviet Premier Khrushchev as declaring "we Russians have wea pons which could easily turn the u s. 6lh Meet into coffins of mol ten steel for its sailors." The article by .Mohammed Hei- kal in his newspaper Al Ahram also said Khrushchev called the nth Fleet commander. Vice Adm. Charles R. Brown "an exceeding ly stupid and foolish admiral." At the Uniled Nations, Secre tary General Dag Hammarskjold announced he was setting up a seven-man group to advise him on enlarging the U.N. observer group in Lebanon. .

The new Iraqi government hid for the support of Indian Prime Minister Nehru with a message to Ihe Indian government announc ing it would "abide by the Ban dung Conference principles, honor the country s international obliga tions and protect foreigners and their property." Pakistani Prime Minister Firoz Khan Noon, whose government was allied in Ihe Baghdad Pact, with the royal Iraqi regime the rebels overthrew, told newsmen his cabinet was giving serious con sideration to the question of rec ognizing the new Baghdad gov ernment.

Chief Proposes Council Prepare Meeting Plans WASHINGTON (API-President Eisenhower is expected to tell Soviet Premier Khrushchev today that the proposed summit meeting on the Middle East crisis must be conducted entirely within the framework of the U.N. Security Council. This reportedly would include having the U.N. body set the time and ground rules for such a meet ing, and decide which outsiders should be invited. Officials here said there prob ably would have to be a few pri vate talks among heads of gov ernment during the prospective summit gathering. But Eisenhow er and Secretary of State Dulles were represented as determined to hold such sessions to a minimum. A note setting forth U.S. govern ment views was completed by Eisenhower and Dulles and sent to Paris and London for consulta tion.' Possible differing views among the Big Three could cause some delay, but indications were that the note would be delivered in Moscow today. Some authorities here reported that the President believes it should be up to the Security Coun cil through its regular machinery at U.N. headquarters in New Y'ork to arrange the proposed extra ordinary session of heads of gov eminent of the 11 member nations and to set the date. Khrushchev had proposed a start Monday, but that is now ob viously impossible. Some question remained whether trench pre mier Charles de Gaulle will be willing to attend at all, although dispatches from Paris indicated that he probably would. Secretary of State Dulles, mean while, held In his plan to take off for Bonn. Germany, tonight on a schedule that calls for his absence from Washington until Tuesday Dulles will confer with Chan cellor Konrad Adenauer in Bonn for several hours tomorrow after noon and go on lo London tomor Appropriation Bills Finished In The House WASHINGTON (AP) Except for some minor odds and ends and some compromises lo be worked out with the Senate, the House today closed the hook on appropn ation bills for 1958. Based on House action alone where final passage has not been completed, Ihe prospect is lor to tal appropriations of about 70 billion dollars for Ihe year. But laler Senate actions could raise that (ntal substantially, especial ly for defense and foreign aid. The 70 Billion ngure wouia rep resent a cut of about $1,600,000,- 000 from President Eisenhower's request for $71.539.831.5,19 in new money. Last year Congress cut nearly live billions from Eisen hower's requests. On the basis of their record this year, members of the House and Senate aren't likely lo emphasize any claims of economy in this year's election campaigns. The last of 20 regular. 1 supple mental and deficiency bills sailed through the House yesterday by voice vole and went to the Sen ate. It allots $1,218,815,000 for con struction programs lor the Army, the Navy and the Air Force at home and abroad. This is 511 mil lion dollars less than the Presi dent requested, with the Senate still In act. The Senate Appropriations Com mittee voted to add $1,600,000,000 lo funds the House already has voted lor defense, with most of Ihe extra money for more air power. Klamath Basin Roundup Underway This Evening By LAMAR HOOVER With 110 cnwbnys entered in six major events, the Klamalh Ba sin Roundup gets started this eve ning at 7:30 at the fairgrounds. A rodeo which numbers among ils entrants such stars as Aivin Nelson, George Menkenmaier, Dale Smith, Ross Dollarhide and Vcrn Castro is sure to be a lively af fair, and there are some less well known names among those com ing, whose recent performances seem to indicate that they may be among the stars of the future. Take, for example, Ted Ash- worth. Irom Kmghlsen, California, who recently came up out of no where to take fourth place in the current learn roping championship standings. He's only 12 points he hind Gone Rambn and Jim Rod riguez Jr., who are tied for sec ond. Thin there's Leonard Block, ol Drnair. California, who won the calf roping at lasl weekend's Sa linas Rodeo, tying his lour calves in a total time of 76.6 seconds to win $1,672. His coming gives the local calf roping contest increased importance. Dale Smith, who is in cwnlh place, is one he'll he compi'ting against. Alvin Nelson, whose coming we announced a icw days aao in con nection with Ihe saddle hrnnc competition, will also be taking part in Ihe bareback riding. He is in 1'iih place thus lar this season despite being in the Army. Among his rivals will be Jav T. Smilh of Inna, Idaho, who in currently in fifth place. There'll also be ihe perennial Sonny Turemnn nf John Day, who wal the world row night for sessions of the Bagh dad Pact Council. In London, Dulles will have opportunity to discuss summit meeting problems with Prime Minister Macmillen and Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd, and try to seek a closer understanding. The British leaders have put forth the idea of a gathering de voted primarily to discussion of Middle Eastern problems without necessarily tailing any action. State Department officials said privately that this runs contrary to the views of Dulles and Eisen hower. They are represented as opposed to any kind of agreement among Ihe big powers which would change or limit the func tions of the Council simply be cause heads of government rather than ambassadors would be pres ent. The only conditions Khrushchev imposed were that all three West ern government chiefs should at tend and that Prime Minister Nehru of India and Arab leaden should be invited also to take part. Ike May Get More Money For Defense WASHINGTON (AP) If the Senate Appropriations Committee has its way. President Eisenhow er will receive $1,200,000,000 more in defense money than he request ed for the year that began July 1. Ihe committee yesterday ap proved a measure to provide $40.- 032,000.000 for Defense Depart. ment operations. This sum not only gives Eisenhower more than he sought, but tops by $1,600,000,000 the amount authorized in a House bill passed last month. Some senators contend the ad ministration isn't expanding the nation's defense program fast enough in the light of Soviet sci entific progress and the Middle East crisis. Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson (D-Texl Senate majority leader, told Sec retary of Defense McElroy he was disappointed over what he de scribed as a lack of grim urgency in the defense establishment. "We must work today as though there would never be a tomor- row, said Johnson, Most of the increases, approved by the Appropriations Committee would provide additional air power. An additional siobjoo.oiio was provided for 13 more long-range jet B52G bombers. The House had provided money for 39. An item of $111,189,000 was ear marked for 30 additional KCI33 jet tankers. The House program had called for 28. The committee proposed an In crease nf 140 million dollars to expand the capacity of the Air Force to carry troops and sup plies.

The previous high was in 1948 and totalled 1.46 inches. Average rainfall for July in Mount Shasla is .17 inches. The five day forecast is for more rain every day.
