HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE O-A i THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1958 Prize-Winning Novelist Denies Anti-Red Intent LONDON AP - Roris Paster nak, the Soviet Nobel Prize-winning author, today denied that he had intended to express anti-Communist views in his controversial novel "Doctor Zhivago." Writing to the Soviet Communist party newspaper Pravda, Paster- Toiler Admits Street Killing ST. LOUIS 'APi-Police say a 21-year-old laborer has admitted firing the shot that killed Theo dore Mcintosh. 17. Tuesday night in a street gang fight. Detective Sgt.

Conanl, former president of Harvard University, said Wednes day many Oregon schools are too small to provide, a broad educa tional program. Conant, who heads a national furvey of high school education sponsored under a foundation grant, said that unless a high school has 100 graduates annually it is too small to provide an ade quate educational program. Some 83 per cent of, Oregon high schools, attended by 35 per cent of the state's students, now graduate fewer than 100 students each year. Conant said the smaller schools cannot maintain sufficient quali fied teachers in the many special ized fields, which form the basis of a comprehensive study course. He also suggested extending the school day to include seven or eight 45 minute class periods. Brookings Man To Face Charge GOLD BEACH (AP)-A Brook Ings man was charged with sec ond degree murder Wednesday in connection with the death of his infant daughter, who died eight hours after birth last January. The charge alleged Raymond Ikola heat his pregnant wife so severely she gave birth to the child, who died of injuries. He was arraigned in a preliminary justice court hearing and then bound over to the grand jury. nak expressed regret at the inter pretation placed on his book and pleaded with his country's leaders for a chance to "restore my good name." The 68-vear-old Doet-novplkt'c confession of error was in the pat tern familiar in Communist coun tries, made apparently to avoid the expulsion from the Soviet Un ion demanded by Young Commu nist League leaders and others. In a personal appeal to Premier Khrushchev five days ago. the writer said exile "is to me eoual to death." In his letter to Pravda, which was quoted by Moscow radio, Pas ternak said he had been accused of giving vent In "Doctor Zhivago" to views that the Communist Rev olution was illegal and brought un happiness to the Soviet Union. "It is clear to me I cannot en dorse' such clumsy allegations," Pasternak said. At the same time my work which has received the Nobel Prize gave cause to this regrettable interpretation and this is the reason 1 finally gave up the prize." He added that he had tried to halt his book's publication abroad, and had his request been heeded, it is likely I should have been able at least in part to correct this." "In my letter to Nikita Khrush chev 1 have said I am tied to Russia by my birth, life and work and that to leave and go into exile abroad was unthinkable to me," Pasternak continued. "Speaking about this tie I had in mind not only the kinship of its earth and nature but also of her people, her past, her glorious present and her future. . . "With bright faith in my own future and in the future generally, being proud of the times in which I live and of the people who sur rounded me, I believe I shall find in myself the strength to restore my good name and the lost trust of my comrades." . Pasternak s novel is interpreted in the West as an account of the failure of the Soviet system to produce the freedom sought by mankind. A bestseller abroad, it is banned in the Soviet Union Pasternak said he had first agreed to accept the $41,420 Nobel Prize, awarded him Oct. 18 by the Swedish Royal Academy of Letters, because he thought it was a literary distinction. 'When I saw the scope of the political campaign around my nov el, he continued. I realized my self that this award was a political measure which has now resulted in monstrous consequences, and on my own initiative without be ing compelled by anybody 1 sent my voluntary refusal. Pasternak also denied that he had been subjected to any perse cution. "I definitely risked neither my life, my freedom nor anything else," he wrote. "I want to stress once more all my actions are be ing undertaken voluntarily. People who are close acquaintances of mine know full well nothing in the world will compel me to act hypo critically or to act against my conscience." PLANT INSPECTED PENDLETON (AP) Milan.

Dulles Must Get Backing Of Democratic Congress WASHINGTON ( AP )-Secretary 1 of State Dulles will have to seek much' closer cooperation with Democratic leaders of Congress if he is to run foreign policy effec tively during his last two years in office. Aides said privately today they had no doubt he would take such action, although it was still too early to say what specific steps might be necessary. "Although Congress has been under Democratic control for the last four of the Eisenhower ad ministration's six years, a shift in power over the conduct of for eign affairs now seems certain to come about lor two reasons: 1. Tuesday's election gave the Democrats such overwhelming control as virtually to vest them with a new degree of authority and confidence not only to criti cize what is being done but to say how it should be done. Or so it appears to many observers in the State Department. 2. Regardless of what happens in the 191K) elections, the Eisen hower administration as such is limited to two more years in of fice. The leadership authority of the President and secretary of state therefore must be expected to decline, relative to the rein forced Democratic leadership at the Capitol. But the record of the last four years of working with Democratic Congresses encourages Dulles aides to, believe that close coop eration will be obtained. They look for continued support on major issues of foreign aid appropriations and problems in volving firm stands against ex pansionist moves by the Commu nist bloc countries. The first test may involve Unit ed States support for Nationalist China s continued strong defense of the Quemoy and Matsu islands off the Chinese mainland. The administration may have to ask early next year for a supple mental appropriation to finance plans for modernizing the Chinese Nationalist army and to make up for the approximately 300 million dollars spent in supplies for the defense of Quemoy against the Communist artillery assault which began in late August. Many Democrats, including Chairman Theodore F. Green of the Senate Foreign Relations Com mittee, were outspoken in criticiz ing the administration s policy re garding the coastal islands. A re quest for funds arising out of this policy could precipitate a major debate on the whole issue. Furthermore, if the Chinese Communists gradually ease off their pressures, Democratic con grcssional leaders will probably insist on a policy more in line with (heir own ideas and the idea; of many Allied countries. These come down to saying that the United Stales should defend For mosa hut should try to get Chi ang's forces out of the offshore islands. Southern Demos To Retain Control Of Many Groups WASHINGTON (AP' Southern Democrats will retain the bulk of Senate and House committee chairmanships in the new 86th Congress but Southern conserva tives probably will lind their in fluence diluted. With the Democrats sharply in creasing their control of both branches in Tuesday's voting, the top committee posts in nearly all cases will remain firmly in the hands of the men who held them in (he 85th. In many instances, these men have been chairmen for years. In the Senate, this means that Alaska to be filled Nov. 25, their committee margins will increase materially. In most cases, these will be 10-5 or 9-8 on the 15-member commit tees. With such a lineup, the vet of one dissenter from party pol icy will not be too important. His Woes Began 3 Months Ago SPARTANBURG. S.C. IAP)J. L. Dunagin's troubles began about three months ago when he suf fered severe burns trying to light a barbecue fire. Returning from a hospital a few days later, he wrecked his car and was hospitalized again for internal injuries. Earlier this week, fire destroyed Dunagin's home and belongings. ANNUAL MEET SLATED WEST LINN AP1-The West ern Oregon Livestock Assn. an nounced Wednesday it will hold its annual meeting here Nov. 12 14 and will discuss plans for an exhibit at the Oregon Centennial celebration next vear. 9 of the 16 , standing committee i chairmanships will remain with Southerners. In the House, the! South will keep 12 of the 19 posts. The chairmanships go strictly by! seniority. i The only change in chairman ships forced by the election in either branch involves the House Interior Committee. Rep. Clair Engle D-Caiif , who headed it in the 85th Congress, was elected to the Senate. Expected to replace him is Rep. Wayne N. Aspinall ID-Colo). The election of many morci Democrats from the North and West seems certain to cut down the power of the South in the com mittees, which can make or break, legislation. I Particularly will this be true in I the Senate, where the Democrats! have had only one-vole margins on committees for four years. In such a situation a conservative Southern Democrat often is a swing man; by voting with the Republicans ho could help to bot tle up or win changes in legisla tion.
