McKinney Reopening O f A Ban Talk Could Produce Agreement WASHINGTON AP I'.S author il ics expressed cautious optimism Saturday that the atomic Small Group Swings Vote WASHINGTON CAPi The fate of Lewis L. Strauss' nomination as secretary of commerce appears to be in the hands of a small band of 10 to IS senators. They are the senators who have not made up their minds about the controversial nomination, or. if thev have, have not conlidcd their decision to their colleaeues. They are both Republicans and Democrats. Seven Democrats have said they'll vote to confirm Strauss. One Republican. William Lander of North Dakota, says he'll vote against him. Assuming that all the otner &J Republicans voted for him. Strauss would still need at least nine more Democratic votes to put him over the top. But he can't necessarily assume that all the Republicans will vole lor mm. al though the tightest kind of GOP oartv discipline is being invoked. Sen. Warren G. Magnuson (D Wash) told newsmen Friday he thinks 10 to 15 senators haven t made up their minds. Other Sen ate observers agree with the -fig ure. Thus stand the skirmish lines in what has become by far the bit terest dispute between the Demo cratic Senate and President Eisen hower in his six years in the White House. Group Mulls Distribution Of Food To Needy Homes The County Welfare Commission has begun a study to determine whether it would be economically feasible to distribute surplus foods to needy Klamath County fami lies this fall. If surplus foods would be avail able, they would be offered both to families on general assistance and to needy families not on wel fare. But the problem is involved, and It will take some 'doing to deter mine whether the good to be gained from such a program would be commensurate with its cost. Mrs. Julia Brown, county wel fare administrator, attended a meeting in Salem last Wednes day when the surplus food pro gram was explained in detail to welfare people from a number of Oregon counties. These are the elements of the program, as outlined before the county commission Friday. vFoods Available Available foods, at the moment, at least, are flour, rice, corn meal and dried milk. One prohlem about the good from a Surplus program. Mrs. Brown pointed out. is that only milk on that list has much nutritional value. Moreover, the Surplus Commod ity Division of the U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture, which says who gets what, places welfare needs at the bottom of the pri ority list. Ahead are school lunch firograms. Indian tribes no tribes n Oregon receive surplus foodt, and public institutions. Welfare and needy families get what's left of the quota the, De partment of Agriculture permits to be released from storage bins and caves. Cost The county must assume all costs, and these are two: 1' cost of the food itself (very nom inal!, and 2) cost of shipping and handling, (which could be con siderable. Red Tape Probably the biggest obstacle is plain old red tape. It takes weeks of wading through government forms to get on the approved list. Once food is or dered, it takes 30 to 45 days to get delivery. And persons who handle foods and maintain ware houses must have State Health Department approval. "The thing is so hedged in -red tape," Mrs. Brown said, "that Jhlultnomah and Clackamas coun ties dropped the idea at the meet ing. They're not going any further with ft." - Klamath County Is Interested in seeing what can be done, and in aeetng how many potential recip ient families it has, both those on welfare and those not on welfare. What constitutes a needy family is to be determined by the state. A surplus foods program has been under consideration in this county for a year and a half. Mrs. Brown said, but a severe cut to 75 per cent of minimum food standards for general assist ance families this spring brought the idea to the front. In that regard, the county ap pears to be doing better than be fore. May figures show 128 con tinuing general assistance cases at the end of the month (com pared with 176 in April); 60 new applications for assistance (com pared with 55 in April, but on the whole of much shorter dur ation), and expenditures of about $5,675 for general assistance (com pared with J76 in April); 60 new applications for assistance (com pared with 55 in April, but on the whole of much shorter dur ation), and expenditures of about So, 675 for general assistance (com pared with $11,282 in May last year and $7,376 in May two years ago. The improvement is, because more families are working now, Mrs. Brown said. The cost last month was the lowest in almost two years. But a surplus foods distribution program would be useful this fall, when general assistance loads are heaviest because harvest workers flock into the county. To meet this need, in snite of a disappointing prognosis, the Coun ty Welfare Commission is deter mined to see what it can do. EXAGGERATED REPORT BERK"LEY, Calif. (UPI) - Patrolman Lee Jones checked out a complaint Friday of "a half nude young woman at San Pablo Ave!, and Channing Way. He sent this jaundiced report to headquarters: It proved to be a low-cut gown with a broken zip per." SKIING FOUND CAFE WILMINGTON. N.Y. (UPI) Statistics kept at the Whiteface Mountain Ski Center show that the average skier, spending about 15 days per season on the slopes, could ski for 133 years without a serious accident such as a frac ture, dislocation or severe laceration. Mother Dies; Baby Born LOS ANGELES (UPD A 5 pound, l'i-ounce premature baby girl was taken from her mother by caesarean section Friday as the mother was dying from in juries suffered in an automobile accident. , Hospital officials said the child was named Diane Lynn. The caesarean section was per formed on Mrs. Dixie Lee Hor tick. 28, of nearby Sylmar, at Sun Valley Receiving Hospital by Drs. Howard Baker and Kennein j. Richland. She died during brain surgery.

HorticV suffered minor injuries. Eades was charged with felony drunk driving and manslaughter. Judge Martin Katz set bail at $1,500 and ordered him to appear for preliminary hearing next Wed nesday in Van Nuys municipal court. est ban talks reopening in Geneva Monday will eventually produce an agreement with tho Soviet I'ni- i. The sense of quiet hopefulness for the Geneva sideshow con trasts with the semi public per formance under the big tent the foreign ministers meeting on Ger many which after four weeks was still featuring denunciations by each side of the other's pro positions. ror the time being, at least. Washington does not expect any progress from the two talks to be lumped together in one package tor ottering at a summit confer ence. The nuclear negotiations, tern porarily suspended last month when the German parley got un derway, have been going on since last (all. They may continue for months more. Besides political questions, they must deal with scientific problems of enormous complexity. Soviet Premier Nikita Khrush chev has sent word the Reds will join in new scientific studies on how to detect atomic blasts at high altitudes. The United Stales plans to show the Soviets the major portions of several secret scientific studies on high altitude and under ground explosions. It intends to press the' Soviets anew for a discussion of detection oi underground blasts. And- it wants to find out how many inspections of suspected explos ions tne Kecis would agree to. what they will admit warrants in spection, how far they are willing to waive insistence on the veto and on restrictions over control operations. , The West has insisted that any agreement to halt nuclear tests must include controls to see that nobody cheats. Mine Firm Plans Trench LAKEVIEW A great trench Is replacing the underground work ings of Lakeview Mining Com-; oany's White King uranium mine near here. I S x and a half million cubic yards of earth and ore will be scooped out in the next three years under a contract on which lsbell Construction Company of Reno has been working since May 8. By the time digging is complet ed, there will be a pit 1.5(10 feet long, l.ooo feet wide and 300 feet deep. Then the Lakeview Mining Com pany will start all over again with tunnels, boring down from the bot tom of the pit and tunneling out for the ore that is known to ex tend at least 700 feet under the surface of the ground. The open pit mining was decid ed on. said Hollis Dole, director of the Oregon Department of Ge ology and Mineral Industries, be cause of problems connected with tunnel operations. Expanding on a report in the department's publica tion, the Ore -Bin. he. said very heavy ground hampered sinking shaft No. 2 through which fur ther development was planned, and cave-ins also became frequent. Preliminary open pit mining be gan in March and all underground work was discontinued in April.
