In his summary, Vergeer stated, In my special report, on the air port's finances, it was clearly pointed out that this proposed loan can be repaid from annual airport budget appropriations, and still leave necessary cash reserves for this fund to remain on a cash basis." The CAA nas given no indica tion when it could be expected to act on the application. A tentative plan for a terminal building was drawn some months ago by John Howard of the firm of Morrison and Howard, but the estimated cost was then listed as about $200,000. Indications were that if the plan for $100,000 is approved, a termi nal building would be so con structed that it could be enlarged at a later date if deemed neces sary. The CAA is interested in the con struction of airport terminals be cause provisions are made in such matching funds for office availa bilities for the CAA in such termi nals. , The city council formally ap proved the program at a recent session, and the city budget com mittee was polled by Mayor Slater for their approval on transfers from the city property fund. Industrialist Denies Charge BOSTON, Mass. (AP)-Bernard Goldfine; New England textile ty coon and close friend of former presidential assistant Sherman Adams, 'has denied one contempt charge but stilt has two more facing him. He was in court Tuesday with his assistant, Miss Mildred Paper- man, on charges of contempt for failure to produce records for the Internal Revenue Service. He and Miss Paperman pleaded innocent, and Federal Judge Charles E. Wyzanski ordered an immediate trial, the case .was suspended for a day when the court agreed to a defense motion and ordered the government to search for some old records and produce some new ones. One order directed Fred G. Pas- tore, supervisor of the IRS Intel ligence Division, to make a dili gent search through some two tons of Goldfine records to see if the lot includes some that the gov ernment contends Goldfine has failed to turn over. The other order directed five IRS agents to produce today any reports they had made to super iors regarding the Goldfine Inves tigation. Judge Wyzanski said he will rule on whether the reports contain secret information. The case is due to come up again Thursday in federal court. Goldfine is to show up in Wash ington Friday to be arraigned on an 18-count indictment charging contempt of Congress for refusing to answer questions last July be fore a subcommittee on legislative oversight. It was in that investigation that testimony brought out that Gold- fine had made gifts to Adams and other political figures.

KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON NATO Chief Issues Plea PARIS (AP) NATO's 1 supreme commander in Europe, U.S. Gen. Lauris Norstad, pleaded with the Atlantic Pact countries today to move quickly into missile rearm ament. In a strong presentation to the foreign ministers of the 15-nation alliance, Norstad outlined present strength and future needs in the face of Soviet military swagger ing, primarily over Berlin. Informed sources said Norstad told the secret gathering his mili tary command needs intermediate-range American guided mis siles as soon as they can be placed on the European bases from which they could reach the Soviet Union. Only Britain has thus far ac cepted these missiles. The Italians are close to signing a similar agreement. French delay on ac ceptance is the big stumbling block to getting what Norstad considers an adequate force of missiles in Europe. Norstad's speech was described as sober and serious. A NATO spokesman, asked if the com m a n d e r expressed satisfaction with Allied military progress, re plied: It would be wrong to conclude that there was any optimism or pessimism. Realism would be a better word.'' Before Norstad spoke, many of the delegates displayed little or no sense of urgency toward tne strengthening of land forces or equipping them with missiles. For one thing, U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles had told them Tuesday with the statement that "our military advisers are abso lutely confident that the Soviet Union will not risk war over Berlin." Soviet warnings of nuclear war if the West insists on continued access to West Berlin were termed by Dulles "empty threats which ought not frighten anyone." Norstad also appealed for speedy Frigid Spell Said Snapped United Press International Comparatively balmy weather overspread the nation's midsection today, snapping a prolonged cold wave by lifting temperatures above the freezing mark for the first time in nearly two weeks. However, the chilly grip of win ter maintained a stubborn hold on the Southeast during the night, and a new snowstorm, powered by Arctic blasts, raced across the Northern Plains into the Upper Great Lakes. The warming trend began Mon day in the Central and Southern Plains, advanced into the Midwest Tuesday, and was expected to reach the Atlantic Coast today. In the meantime; readings dropped to 34 degrees in Tallahassee,- Fla., early today under the influence of the lingering cold air. At the same time, Pierre, S.D., had a comparable temperature of 33 degrees. As the warm air advanced across the interi6r, temperatures shot up to 70 degrees in Northern Texas, Lincoln, Neb., had a high of 58 and Pickstown, S.D., record ed 51 degrees. Temperatures were expected to range in the 40s and 50s today from the Central Plains across the Central Apoalachians into much of the East. Tavern Operator Forfeits Bail Mrs. Dorris May Short, operator of a tavern in Dairy, forfeited $200 bail Wednesday after failing to ap pear in district court to answer a charge of selling lottery tickets. Mrs. Short was represented by her attorneys, David R. Vanden herg Jr. and John Denman, who said their client would not appear as a defendant. Judge D. E. Van Vactor ordered hail forfeited, punch boards con fiscated by state police, and mer chandise returned to the defendant. Mrs. Short had been accused of offering candy as a reward from punch boards displayed at her tav em. She was arrested by state police and had pleaded innocent to the charge. The court had scheduled a jury trial today, but the panel was ex cused when the defendant did not appear. SUIT FILED The Oregon State Board of La bor has filed suit in circuit court against R. P. Ellingson Lumber Company to recover wages it claims are due Wayne Cody, lumber handler. The board seeks $144 remaining due from an origi nal claim of $860. plus a $600 pen ally, plus interest and attorneys lees. I fulfillment of NATO plans for 30 full-strength, combat-ready divi sions in Europe, plus 100 batta lions armed with short-range, tac tical missiles by 1963. So far the NATO force lacks half of the divi sions, due chiefly to the lag in West German armament and the diversion of most French strength from Europe to fight Algerian rebels. A military report to the NATO ministers warned that the Rus sians could launch a massive at tack without resorting to weapons of mass destruction. Informants said the Russians could throw one million men into a central European attack. The Soviet military power was esti mated at 170 line divisions of 2. 500,000 men, 20.000 planes and 500 submarines. Norstad's appeals were backed by the other top NATO command ers at the conference. The naval men have been urg ing more antisubmarine forces- planes, destroyers and escort ves sels. They feel their forces now are adequate only for the most limited defense, with no extras in case of war. Demo Helped Write Letter OKLEE, Minn. (AP) A Demo cratic county chairman says he helped author the controversial Coya come home letter which Rep. Knutson (D-Minn) claims led to her defeat. A handwriting expert in Wash ington testified two days ago that the letter was written by Maurice Nelson, chairman of a volunteer committee that campaigned for Mrs. Knutson s Republican rival. The letter, sent to the congress- woman by her husband in effort to get her out of politics, has been labeled by Mrs. Knutson part of a "malicious conspiracy" on the part of her political enemies. James Turgeon, Red Lane coun ty Democratic chairman, gave this sequence: 'Andv (Mrs. Knutson s husband) came to me early this year and asked me to help him. He told me what he wanted to say and I wrote it out for hun in longhand. Later I typed out several copies for him. There must have been half a dozen or so copies and I also gave him the handwritten one. "I had forgotten all about it un til Andy called me about Thanks giving Day and asked who wrote the letter. I told him, 'Andy, you know that I wrote that letter for vou.' . That's the last I've heard." Turgeon declared emphatically that Nelson had nothing to do with the letter. Nelson, a Fosston, Minn., attorney, headed a cam paign committee supporting Odin Langen. Republican who defeated Mrs. Knutson in the November election. "I don't know why Andy Is changing his story," Turgeon said, "but he seems to change it every time the sun comes up. Chief's Aide Tiptoes Out BAGHDAD (AP) William M Rountree. assistant U.S. secretary of state, left Iraq quietly, almost furtively, today. His Iraqi Airways plane took off for Beirut, Leb anon, where he will change planes en route to Athens. The envoy's departure contrast ed with the hostile demonstrations which marked his arrival. There were no crowds on the streets. The exact time of his departure had been kept secret. The Iraqi government nonethe less took no chances. Soldiers stood every 30 or 50 yards along his route from the U.S. Embassy to (he airfield. The American charge d affaires, A. David Fritzland, other embassy officials and a representative of the Iraqi protocol office saw him off. Rountree declined to make a statement. Organized mobs shouted Go home" and hurled mud, eggs and stones at the flag-flying limousine of the U.S. Embassy whea Roun tree arrived Monday on a fact finding tour of the Middle East. HIT-RUN DRIVER SOUGHT John Cannon, 119 Wendling Street, reported to city police that his car was run into by a 1957 Studebaker pickup bearing Oregon license number 8F-2713. The pick up allegedly backed into Cannon's vehicle and took off without the! driver leaving his name or ad-! dress; the incident occurred Fri day.

When asked if they had changed the locks on the building the day following the dismissal meeting. Mrs. Elliott answered that t h e y naa. - However, sne saia, wis was done because of the many valuable items stored here, and because we were not certain just who had master keys to the place." She was emphatic in her avowal that this was the primary reason why the locks were changed the day after the meeting. Members of the board stated Miss Cooper could have returned at any time to pick up her per sonal belongings. They also denied that she -was directed not to com municate . with any of the staff. Mildred Campbell of Bonanza, board member for the past 19 years, indicated that she had been dissatisfied for some time with Miss Cooper's administrative abil ity. All agreed tnat Miss Cooper is an excellent reference librarian, and has contributed a great deal to the community. County Judge Charlie Mack said, "The county court greatly appre ciates the time and effort put into this problem by the members of the library board. They have ac complished a great deal to straight en out this problem which the court has been aware of for some time." N Miss Ebert, state librarian, also issued a statement following a pro- I6nged discussion with the board. She said, "A conference was held on Tuesday afternoon with the Klamath County Library Board and members of the county court. Extensive evidence of delin quencies of internal management was submitted. These problems have been called to Miss Cooper's attention over a period of time and be cause they have not been correct ed, it was imperative for the board to take action. These condi tions would not be obvious to li brary patrons and it is unfortu nate that they must be made pub lie. Miss Cooper has been a dedi cated librarian and has many fine personal and professional attri butes. However, in my judgment, the board had no other recourse but to seek a change in library administrators. for HOLIDAY LOAN PLAN $100 CASH now Get Costa only $6.05, if repaid m 3 monthly pay ments of $35.36 each!

How State Will Pay Bills SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) Two veteran state senators are dis agreed on a vital question how the state will pay its bills between now and June 30, 1960. Fiscal experts conceded during a two-day nearing oi tne joim Legislative Tax Committee that the state will have a deficit of 282 .million dollars by that date. Sens. James McBride D-Ven tura) and Hugh M. Burns (D-Fres-no) agreed Tuesday at the end of the hearing that the state must enforce strict economies. But McBride insisted no new taxes would be needed for at least a year. He said the state should borrow from other funds to help make up the deficit, effect econ omies, and wait for the rising gen eral economy to bring in new rev enue. 'I still think the committee will agree with me to some extent and work out a borrowing program," McBride said. "Then we 11 see where we can cut down." Burns doubted that the state could balance its budget by taking money from special funds held by a number of agencies and boards. Burns said the state could cut the state budget by no more than 45 million dollars without curtail ing required state services, and could obtain another 20 millions from special funds. In any case, he said the deficit would be huge. "I can't see any other answer but increased taxes," he said. "I'm against any single shot tax. though. An increase should go across the board.

Clark Beise, president of the Bank of America, predicted today the nation's economy will forge ahead in 1959, with the 11 western states leading the way. Beise made this prediction in a year-end statement reviewing ec onomic conditions. "Just a year ago, there were more goods ready for market than people were willing or able to buy," he said.

(UPI) Authorities today launcned an intensive search for the body of Mrs. Olga Duncan, 30, whose mother-in-law has admitted imper sonating her in order to dissolve the young woman's marriage. We have grave suspicions that Mrs. Duncan has met with foul play," District Attorney V e r n Thomas said. Olga disappeared Nov. 17 less than six months af ter marrying attorney Frank Dun can. Search for the pretty young nurse, who was expecting a cfflld in January, was spread to a wider area when police disclosed a mis sing persons report showed sever al pieces of luggage were gone from her apartment.
