OREGON PAGE 5 A Decision Due On Missiles WASHINGTON 1AP Presl dent Eisenhower reportedly ' wants quick Pentagon recommendation on whether to keep the Nike-Hercules or Bomarc missiles or Dotn as antiaircraft weapons. senate sources who reported this today said the President had instructed Secretary of Defense Neil H. McElroy to back up ins rcvommenaauon wiui soud viaence. The sources declined to be auot d by name. One of them said Usenhower s instructions to Mc- tiroy stemmed from a meeting Tuesday between the President and GUP congressional leaders. Sen. Leverett Sallonstall (R-Massi was quoted then as telling Eisen hower mat tne Senate would ' solve the matter for you" if the president didn t act this week. After Tuesday's meeting. Sen ate Republican Leader Everett M Dirksen of Illinois quoted Eisen hower as saying there is no need for an immediate decision on the missiles. A major row over the nation's aerial defense weapons has been going on for some time. It cen ters around claims by the Army and Air Force that each has a auperior missile for shooting down attacking aircrau. The Pentagon has not yet come lip with an answer as to which Claim is correct. The Army is backing its short range Nike-Hercules missile, now a mainstay of the aerial conti- nental defenses. The Air Force is pushing its Bomarc. a missile with a range described as some thing over 400 miles. Congressional critics have charged that there is costly waste in developing the two missiles as - rivals in the air defense program -isisiaiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaaasaaaaaaaaaai f.aiiigiyMiai it? T 1 I iTI .'

An aerial fly-m of some 100 planes is expected. Pfaff's group has found space nearby for the planes. But a conflict has arisen with the National Bean Picking Con test slated that same day at near by Sunset Farm and sponsored by the Mortnwest banners Assn.

Air Examiner Asks Boost WASHINGTON (AP) - A Civil Aeronautics Board examiner has recommended that trunk - line plane passengers pay an extra (1 for their tickets. If the recommendation is ap proved by the full board, the fare increases would be used to help the nation's 12 long-haul airlines pay for new jet age equipment. CAB Examiner Ralph L. Wiser made his recommendation Wednesday after one of the long est hearings in the board's history. starting in May 1956. The proposed increase was des cribed as temporary, but Wiser's long decision gave no prospective date for ending it. Wiser said the boost, along with some small but unspecified rate increases, would allow the airlines to realize fair earnings. The surcharge would represent n over-all 12 per cent average increase the level of domestic fares before Feb. 10, 1958, when the airlines got temporary in creases. Wiser recommended these temporary increases be con tinued past their July 31 expira tion date, along with an earlier $1 surcharge permitted before 1953. Airlines affected are America. United, Eastern, Trans World, Braniff, Capital. Continental. Del ta, National, Northwest, Northwest and Western. Business Aid Laws Signed Hat- SALEM (API-Gov. Mark field signed into law Wednesday two Senate bills designed to de velop a better climate for business. One exempts goods in transit through the state from taxation and the other permits lending agencies to loin together into credit corporation to lend risk capital to business. Other bills signed will: Permit cities to issue bonds to build off-street parking facilities, with the bonds to be paid off by nearby property owners. Permit the state Department of Education to accept any kind of federal aid to education. . Permit a committee to decide when the governor is physically or mentally incapable of func tioning in office.. cheap sources of conventional pow er are non-existent or nearly de pleted in Europe. Asia. Africa and south America and "have-not en ergy nations must get atomic power, and get it fast." 'The international prestige of our nation will suffer a severe blow if some other nation sets there first with the best and the most in atomic power, he said Jackson said prospects for cheap atomic power in the next few years can only be realized if the lederal government builds or fi nances more prototype plants. He said "thousands of hours of pointless debate had been spent over a problem which does n o t exist public or private develop mem oi atomic power. "The real question we face is technical, not ideological," he said. Jackson paid special tribute to vice Adm. Hyman G. Rickover. who followed him to the speaker's stand. Rickover. known as "the father of the atomic submarine." described the lessons learned from operation of the world's first com mercial atomic power station at Shippingport. near Pittsburgh. Jackson noted that a Plutonium reactor being built at the Han ford, Wash., Atomic Works could be converted to produce 700.000 ki lowatts of electric power larger than the output of the Bonneville r i t Ldiu aim neaiy li umn I n ( original capacity of the Shipping' port station. He said the conversion would cost 100 million dollars, produce tne cheapest known atomic power and "advance the art of peaceful reactor construction. In his prepared address1. Rick over stressed the value of Ship pingport as principally "advancing reactor technology. He said the station, largely fi nanced by the government and op- crated by the Duquesne Light Co.. had produced 325 million kilowatt hours of electricity in its l'i years of operation. Rickover said the lessons learned in running the plant will make it possible to increase its capacity from 60.000 to 150.000 ki lowatts by placing a new-type core in the reactor. But many more benefits have been realized, he said. They in clude development of newly de signed equipment, refined fuels and greater know-how and avail ability of technical information. He said he had seen nothing to indicate that safety requirements can be relaxed or that the public is becoming used to radio activity" or losing its apprehen sions over it. Rickover said attempting to pre dict the eventual cost of commer cial atomic power by using Ship pingport as a yardstick "is like the Wright brothers trying to pre dict commercial air-freight costs Irom the money spent and dis tance flown by their first plane at Kitty Hawk." issues. Should Socialist governments re place the present Conservative ad ministrations in Britain this year or next and in West Germany in 1961, far-reaching changes would most likely result in foreign poli cies of those two nations.

The opinion of these officials Is that Khrushchev will not risk an armed clash over Berlin at this time. 1 Khrushchev's November ultima tum to the Big Three to get out of West Berlin in six months is considered by these officials as primarily a probing action to test the unity of the Allies. They stress that the Soviet leaderr confronted with a phalanx of Allied determination to remain in the divided city, scrapped his deadline. In return, he got ths virtual promise of the summit meeting he apparently wants so badly. Chri.stopher Columbus was a weaver while studying geography.
