WYNNE Two dollar bills are traditional pay from the old Navy, but they are going to be very plentiful in the Klamath Falls vicinity lor the next several months. The Employes Associations at Oregon Tech are going to pay their personnel in two dollar bills for the next few months. We're all very much aware ol the importance of Oregon Tech to the community educationally speak ing, but now we have even a more graphic way of seeing just how much the school means to the community in a financial way. Charles Bolcyn Sr., president o( Chapter 36 of the Oregon Slate Employes Association, and Don R. Miller, Chapter 75, are merging both groups in this two dollar bill venture. There has been considerable speculation about the future of Ore gon Tech. The recently released Flesher report gave it short shift Indeed, recommending its disman tlement and disbursement to other campuses. If we are to retain this import ant school in our midst, it is im portant that we give the school our full backing. This two dollar bill idea is an excellent one to bring home to all of us just how much the school means. You can help by paying special attention each lime you get a $2 bill. It was the initial inlcnlinn of the group to merely slip the two dol lar bills into circulation, hoping people would be curious about where they came from. But on second thought, they de cided to publicize the fact so cv rryonc would know, each time they handle a two dollar bill, that here Is more evidence of what Oregon Tech means to me personally in a financial way. It's a good idea, and I think it will be an eye-opener to all of us answer. His anxiety to do so con firms the impression held by many in this capital that the Soviet Union cannot wholly con trol Peiping in the Formosa Strait crisis. The Red Chinese, smelling a victory, might be too much in clined to pour on pressure to the limit, in their own display of brinkmanship. So Khrushchev is saying to the Chinese: All right, that is your own internal affair. If you are not attacked directly from without specifically by the United States, that lets us out. You go it alone Peiping is not likely to take kindly to the Khrushchev state ment. But it will make the Red Chinese think carefully about go ing off the deep end. ItusNiim Shift. By WILLIAM L. RYAN AP News Analyst WASHINGTON (API Nikita Khrushchev's remarkable one question, one-answer interview Sunday has the look of an ex tremely important development in the Far East crisis. The Soviet Premier and party boss called in the news agency Tnss to tell the world Moscow has not the slightest intention of get ting into the fight between the Chinese Communists and the Na tionalists on Formosa. It is plainer than ever now that Moscow is worried by the For mosa crisis. And it is highly like ly Khrushchev's words were meant particularly for the cars ol the Chinese Communists. These interviews do not come about by accident, or through the enterprise of sonic Soviet report er. Tass is an instrument of So viet policy. For all practical pur poses, it is pari of the Soviet For eign Ministry. A statement like this, distributed by Tass, carries as much weight as a formal dip lomatic note. Khrushchev was obliged In use an oblique approach in his warn ing to Peiping. Hut he seemed anx ious to leave the Ited Chinese uith no illusions regarding the ex tent to which Moscow is commit ted to help them militarily under the 1U50 Sino-Soviet Treaty. Khrushchev accomplished his purpose in this way: He quoted President Eisenhower's Wednes day news conference common! questioning Red Chinas calling Ihe Formosa Slraii shooting only a civil war. The President had said that If it was a civil war. he wanted to know why Khrushchev Indicated the Soviet Union was ready to take part in it. Khrushchev leaped to the oppor tunity. Acting the part of a man hitting the ceiling at the "tricks" of his antagonists. Khrushchev thundered that he never did say any such thing. What did he say. then? In Khrushchev's own words, he has nut given the slightest hint that the U S S R, is ready to take part in a Chinese civil war. The U S S R, would come In Red China help only if the Red Chinese were attacked "Irom without." or speak ing more concretely, if Ihe U S A attacks the Chinese People's (Com munist) Republic." What goes on, says Khrushchev. Is Indeed a civil war, and thus an internal Chinese affair. This spells it out lor Peiping If the Red Chinese go ton lar, if they attack and are met hy force, the Soviet Union reserves the right to avoid involving itself in a war with Ihe United States Only if Ihe United States attack is the U.S S R. obliged lo come to Red China's help with mititaiv support. Khrushchev got tins mosauc across through Hie tran-parrni device of an arraiunt inimirw limited to one question and one Oil fi'rnb Itri'win By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Under Gamal Nasser's leader ship, nationalist - minded Arab leaders are aiming a body blow at foreign oil producers in the Middle East. The Arab leaders intend a scri ous challenge to U.S. policy. A hint of things lo come is found in a little-noticed development in Nasser's capital. The Arab League is inviting all its member states to send delega tions to what is being billed as the "first Arab oil conference," sched ulcd for Nov. 1 in Cairo. This is on Nasser's initialivc. He is pushing hard for the idea of greater producer-slate participa Hon in the oil industry, all the way from extraction to marketng. He wants a cut of the oil riches. Among the projects to come be fore this meeting will be a plan for an all-Arab pipeline parallel lo Ihe present Western-controlled lines, and a proposal from the revolutionary Iraqi regime for an all-Arab tanker fleet. These may be pipedrcams at Iho moment, but they show the way the wind blows. The U.S. State Department cannot over look the fact that if Western hating Premier Mossadegh, hack MM, had had access to transport even a handlul of tankers he could have marketed Iranian o and triumphed in a dangerous anti-Western crisis in Iran. One of Ihe most important fig urcs in Ihe Cairo meeting will be .Ifl-year-old Sheik Abdullah Tar- iki, director of Saudi Arabia's Department of Petroleum Affairs. He is an ardent nationalist with a grudge against the United States. Tariki hopes to persuade little British-protected Kuwait, most fabulous producer in Ihe world, lo join in these all-Arab schemes to weaken the Western position. rhis Is a matter of gravest im portance lor American policy. There is a temporary glut of oil in today's world market, but this cannot and will not last. Demand will soar in years lo come. At the same time, American search lor oil hecomes more dilli- cult and far more expensive all Ihe lime. Alter World War 1 Washington bad a fright over Ihe future of American reserves. The State De partment hacked American com mercial initiative to the hilt in Ihe search for new sources. When Ihe lahiilous lields of the Saudi penin sula proved to he Ihe world's great oil hank. U.S. policy moved lo make certain these reserves did not lall under potentially hostile control. This fact alone played a large part in the successful el fort to bring shattered Western Europe back In economic health after World War II. If control of the oil now should pass gradually out of friendly hands, Europe once nsain would be endangered. American oil men abroad need the same kind of resolute support now. They also need to look to ward building a defensive position in the face of Nasser's burgeon ing offensive. Nasser's men shrewdly invited non-Arab Iran and Venezuela to the November oil conference. Iran apparently will resist the over tures, but Venezuela, smarting over its current irritation with Washington's protective oil import quotas, has accepted. Iran, Venezuela and other non Arab producers would be impor tant links in a delensive chain against prospective Arab oil blackmail. The other links would be forged from a highly flexible transport situation and greater storage facilities in Western Eu rope. The Arabs cannot drink their oil. They cannot afford any long in terruptions in its flow, unless they want to risk new revolutions. If the Western position continues weak, the Arabs are likely to talk blackmail. If it is strong, they arc more likely to talk sense. Tim v France By ROBERT BUCKHORN United Press International France has been politically re born . . . the old Fourth Re public came crashing down under the weight of votes cast by the man in the street, and in its place stands a new republic, the fifth since the French Revolution. The new government is the child ol one man, Gen. Charles de Gaulle. He shaped it, compaigned for it, and will run it. Its success or failure depends on him, and in all probability the success or fail ure of France as a first rate pow er is wrapped up in the long para graphs of the new constitution. Stripped down to its bare legal essentials, what has happened is this: Frenchmen have decided lo curb Ihe power of the national assembly, and end the recurring parade of premiers that has made their nation a diplomatic laughing stock. Under the old system, the pre mier was at the mercy of the mul tiparty system, a system that spawned 25 governments in 12 years. To keep power in the Fourth Republic, a premier had to compromise constantly, promising something to each party. But as the problems of France grew more complex, so did Ihe problem of keeping Ihe government on even keel. In the end. the constant jug gling ended in near chaos. The lack of leadership led to the famous general revolt of May. and this in turn sparked the recall ol General de Gaulle. De Gaulle made the new consti tution Ihe first order of business. and now the voters have made it the law of the land. The key provision in the new constitution is the switch in the central power. No longer will Par liament be able to toss out a gov ernment on a whim. Standing in its way vvill be the president, no longer a symbol of the state, but a strong executive. The president, and all signs point to De Gaulle, will be elected for seven years. He in turn, will name his premier, and the premier with the president's okay will pick the cabinet. The only way the National Assembly vvill be able to oust the cabinet will be by adopting a cen sure molion. and this must be passed by an absolute majority. Parliament will lose some of its power over the purse, and can he dissolved hy Ihe order of the president, if 12 months have passed ince the last election. But in time ot national crisis t h e president docs have the power lo take over the government completely. Shorn of its parliatiH'ntary double-talk, the new constitution .jives France a strong hand at the helm. To some, the fifth republic smacks of authoritarianism, to others it is a long overdue reform. But the decision has been made, and now the world will know if change is the cure for what ails France.

OlO Vy""); U ( IT6 MATg I'.S. and' ((ueinoy By GEORGE J. MARDER United Press International It now turns out that the United States strongly advised the Chi nese Nationalists against a big military buildup on Quemoy. The advice was rejected. Secretary of State Dulles makes the revelation. It's an important link in t h e chain of events leading up to the present situation, a situation in which the United States is com mitted to defend Quemoy if it should be in danger of falling to the Chinese Communists. Here's the background: The Formosa Declaration by Congress in 1955 gave President Eisenhower the power to use Amer ican military forces to defend For mosa and the nearby Pescadores Islands. The commitment ended there. The declaration, however, was so worded as to allow the Presi dent lo take whatever steps nec essary to keep Formosa and the Pescadores from falling to the Reds. The broad grant of power, of course, would include Quemoy and Matsu, the so-called off-shore is lands just off the Chinese main land, but only if they were impor tant to the defense of Formosa. The congressional debate made it clear that Congress was not giving the President the power to use American forces to defend Quemoy and Matsu alone, but only if Ihey were important to keep Formosa free. Both President Eisenhower and Secretary Dulles have made clear that Quemoy and Matsu, as hunks of territory, are not Important, that the defense of Formosa does not hinge on who controls them. But for a large part of the Chi nese Nationalist forces, now com mitted to the defense of Quemoy, to go down ' with the islands, changes the picture entirely. Loss of those forces to the Reds would be a tremendous blow to Nationalist morale and prestige. And it might make them militarily impotent to keep Formosa. The United States could have vetoed the nationalist buildup on Quemoy and the nearby off-shore islands. Under the treaty we have with Chang Kai-shek, such action must be taken after joint agree ment. It falls in the same cate gory as the Nationalist attacking Ihe mainland. We must be consult ed first. Dulles reveals we argued against Ihe buildup, didn't believe it was sound. But we didn't take the step lo veto because the Na tionalists lelt so strongly about Quemoy. Dulles now says if a cease-fire is arranged, it would be loolish lor the Nationalists to maintain the military buildup on Quemoy. llllVS NASHVILLE. Tenn Gov.

Eisenhower planned at a White House luncheon to discuss cam paign strategy with Republican congressional leaders. This had been billed originally as a meet ing lo find ways and means of combatting what the President called GOP apathy and compla cency. Some of the Republican cam paigners, however, indicated they believe Democratic atlacks on for eign policy have handed them an issue on which they can wake up GOP workers. They referred par ticularly to Democrats who ques tioned the country's support of Ei senhower's stand against possible Communist aggression in the Far East. In a letter made public during the weekend, Eisenhower replied lo Chairman Theodore F. Green iD-RI) of the Senate Foreign Re lations Committee.
