OREGON PAGE 7 A Lake Bridge Tolls Denied Christian Unity Praised At International Session OLYMPIA (AP The bell won't toll for users of the present Lake Washington bridge, a federal offi-i cial ruled Tuesday. U. S. Comptroller General Jo seph Campbell wrote state officials that he would not accept repay ment of Hie government's invest ment in the span. The refusal makes it impossible for the state to reimpose tolls. Tiie federal government con tributed $34,000 for approaches to the bridge on the condition that .once the bridge was paid for it would be maintained and operated as a free bridge. Gov. Rosellini asked the state's congressional delegation to intro duce legislation permitting the re payment. When that (ailed to materialize, he wrote the comp troller general, asking it he could accept repayment. Campbell's reply said it would he contrary to the intent of the federal highway laws to accept the funds and waive the condition under which they had been ad vanced. The refusal means some other way will have to be found to fi nance construction of the proposed Evergreen Point bridge across the lake. ST. LOUIS (AP) A worldl of a merger between the Ameri churchman, an outsider, came tnl'an Baptist Convention and the the International Convention of Christian Churches after it had been talking for five days of its passion for Christian unity. Singers' Aide Attends Meet "We arc beginning to succeed." declared the Rev. Edwin T. Dahl- berg, a Baptist and president of the National Council of Churches. More than any other denomi nation, you have been the pioneers." Applause rolled through Kiel Auditorium's Opera House as 3,500 members of the convention for the first time broke into an address with acclaim. There was more when he said: "1 wish I could have come here as part of a merged Baptist and Disciples brotherhood. The Rev. Mr. Dahlberg served on the Baptist side of a commis sion which studied the possibility Shrine Hospital Gets Trek Check CORVALLIS (AP) - The Shri ners Hospital for Crippled Chil dren in Portland is Roing to re ceive a $21,000 check from the Mary's Peak Trek Assn.

Fire Department To Hold School A four - session school on han dling pumps on fire trucks is being held this week at the Klamath Falls Fire Hall, according to Fire Chief Roy Rowe. Earl Albright of Salem, from the state Vocational Education Divi sion, fire training department, is here to conduct the evening class- which will be held through Tuesday. The course is open to all in terested firemen from the sur rounding area. "This training is valuable to all pump operators or not," Chief Rowe staled. "We were glad to see a number of the OTf volunteer firemen at Monday evening's meet ing and all other departments in the area have been invited." Christian Churches (Disciples of Christ). It did not work out. He is pastor of Delmar Baptist Church in St. Louis and his con gregation itself is something of a denominational curiosity. It is aligned with both the American Baptist Convention and the South ern Baptist convention rival groups. "God docs not ask us all to agree," he declared. "But God has made an appointment for all his people to walk together in faith and fellowship and love, whether they agree or disagree." The Rev. Mr. Dahlberg suggest ed all the religions of the world should come together for an inter national spiritual year, much the same as scientists from all na tions are having their Internation al Geophysical lear. "We need a program of mas sive reconciliation," he said. His plea climaxed a day in which the convention adopted a document calling upon the 8,000 Christian churches and their two million members to pray and work for peace. It endorsed the United Nations as the world s greatest nope lor political peace," and called for universal disarmament policed by the U.N. There was no debate on two controversial points in the docu ment. One advocated birth control education in overpopulated areas of the world. The other contem plated admission of Red China to the U.N.

(UPK-The sweepstakes winner in a 4-H Club corn show here was Wayne Wheat. By GEORGE WEEKS United Press International LANSING. Mich. (UPD Gov. G. Mermen Williams is favored to win an unprecedented sixth term !two weeks from today in a Demo cratic tide that could weaken GOP control of the Michigan con- giessional delegation and the state Legislature. That's how most observers arc betting late in a dull campaign that just now is beginning to quicken for the first time since Democrats swept to their biggest primary landslide in state history ! on Aug. 5. The GOP. however, claims its chances are getting better as outstate Republicans rally around polio-crippled college prolessor and a legless war veteran. Williams, whose stature as a presidential contender in 1960 will rise or fall Nov. 4, faces one of his strongest opponents in a dec ade in Paul D. Bagwell, a hard- campaigning Michigan State Uni versity speech teacher with an enthusiastic following. But Bagwell is bucking voter apathy, shaky financing, early campaign defeatism within his party, a Democralic trend oowerful labor political party coalition, and Williams himself, who has been campaigning 16 to 20 hours a day. The same factors are against Sen. Charles E. Potter (R-Mich.). a double-amnutee whose bid for a second term is jeopardized by Lt. Gov. Philip A. Hart, a father of eight who often campaigns from a helicopter flown by his wife. Roth Williams and his protege. Hart, have endorsement of Mich igan's vote - disciplined United Auto Workers Union. Williams has been forced to wage his first defensive campaign because Republicans charge his alliance with UAW President Wal ter P. Reulher is chasing industry and jobs out of Michigan. Potter claims Hart is a captive ol labor. Hart says Potter is cap live of big business. The labor issue has been soft- peddled lately since there is rel ative peace in the auto industry. although both parties still try to unit tne other with Teamsters President James R. Hoffa. Williams counters the m a I n GOP issue by charging Republi cans with "smearing Michigan" and blaming economic woes on "the Eisenhower recession." Williams, Bogwell, Potter and Hart clashed on these issues in a rare face-to-face meeting Satur day at a political workshop spon sored by the United Press Inter national editors of Michigan. A poll of 10 of the editors after the meeting resulted in a unani mous prediction of a Williams victory and an even split over the Potter-Hart race. Democrats see their ticket win ning by more than 300,000 Wil liams won by 290.000 in 1956. Republicans are silent, but see Hart trailing far behind Williams.
