Western Pacific Bail Fight In 2nd Round SAN FRANCISCO (UPD- The I Southern Pacific proposed 1 Interstate Commerce Commission consolidation projects which even- toqay Degan the second round of hearings in the Western Pacific railroad case. Two railroad giants, the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific, are bat tling each other bitterly for per mission to obtain stock control of the Western Pacific ICC examiner Paul C. Albus set most of October to hear cross- examination of Santa Fe and Southern Pacific witnesses. They first appeared last summer when the rival companies presented their main cases. . ' The battle began last Oct. 12 when Southern Pacific announced purchase of 10 per cent of West em Pacific's stock. Santa Fe, i long-time ally of Western Pacific, bought 20 per cent in the follow ing two weeks. In the summer hearings, South ern Pacific president Donald J. Russell explained that his railroad wanted Western Pacific so some facilities of the two lines could he consolidated Valley Job Gets Check WASHINGTON (UPD - An Interior Department spokesman said today a contract for construc tion of the federal-state San Luis unit of the Central Valley Project in California was under review by the department solicitor. Final approval of a contract between the federal government and the state of California is not imminent, the spokesman said. It was understood that a major stumbling point was the use of irrigation water from the project. Under federal law, water from a federal project may not be used on a farming unit of more than 160 acres. California law permits use of impacted water on larger . units. The San Luis unit was author ized by Congress June 3, 1960. Key facilities will be developed and used jointly by the state and federal governments. The 1962 appropriation pill con tains $2 million in federal funds for the project. This will be used for field surveys, planning and initiation of construction. During, the fiscal year, an additional $1.9 million in funds contributed by the state will be available if the contract is approved by the In terior Department. The Reclamation Bureau will build the unit, with the state put ting up 53 per cent of the money. Reds Okay Exhibition WASHINGTON (UPD - The United States and the Soviet Union have agreed to resume an exchange of exhibits previously canceled, the State Department announced today. The department said that the United States and Russia had reached an agreement to open a United States transport exhibit in the Soviet Union and a Russian medical exhibit in the United States next month. The exhibits had been slated to open in Oklahoma City and in Moscow on Sept. 23. However both were canceled on Sept. 21 when the State Department demanded that Russia submit a copy of the contract it had worked out with a private American firm for its medical exhibit at the state fair at Oklahoma City. Another point of controversy was Soviet refusal to pay for an . American liaison man who would be attached to their exhibit. The . United States was required to hire a Russian staff with this country's transportation exhihit in Moscow. The department said it was "pleased" by the new agreement. It said the Soviet Union had bowed to the U. S. demand that the con tract with the American firm be submitted. Campbell's SOUPS All varieties, meat and vgble. bases Reg. 101j ox.

South th 1 Shoito Way tually would produce annual sav- ings of 16.2 million through elim ination of tracks and about 500 jobs. In the face of tough competi tion from truckers, Russell argued that the railroad industry can maintain economic health only by economizing. Ernest S. Marsh, president of Santa Fe, took the witness stand to indicate that Southern Pacific's action had forced his firm to seek an end-to-end consolidation with Western Pacific. , He said Western Pacific and Santa Fe have always been "part ners" in freight inter-changes in competition with Russell's com pany. Marsh charged that Southern Pacific was really seeking a mo nopoly. Western Pacific is Southern Pa cific's only rail competitor over a key part of the north-south Pa cific Coast route and on the mid continental route between San Francisco and Salt Lake City. Southern Pacific asserted that a railroad gets competition enough from the truckers. The firm bolstered this argu ment with a report it had pre pared by Stanford Research Insti tute. The SRI report stressed that rail tonnage has increased only slightly since World War II while inter-city truck business tripled Santa Fe countered with a study by Arthur D. Little Co., a New York consulting firm, which said population growth will boost West ern Rail freight to World War II levels by 1970. These conflicting reports involve the central issue in the case. They are expected to undergo sharp attack during this month s cross-examination. Western Pacific, which favors Santa Fe, is scheduled to present its case during the current hear ing series. Hearings also are scheduled Oct. 16 for Los Angeles, Oct. 19 for Salt Lake City, Oct. 23 in Seattle, and Oct. 25 in Portland, Ore. Shippers,v'civic leaders and rep resentatives of slate regulatory agencies are expected to appear. Four Quit In Battle CORVALLIS (AP) - Four of the nine members of the Benton County Home Rule Charter Com mittee have resigned in a dispute wi(h the remaining five over what they felt was a trend to bring a single administrator form of gov ernment to the county. They accused committee chair man Richard Mengler with being dictatorial." The other four stood behind Mengler and denied he used such tactics. The split came when a plan favored by the minority was changed. The four had sought to have written into the proposed county government charter a seven-man county council of which three members would be full- time administrators. The other five changed the plan to have a seven-man council with three ad ministrators elected separate from the council.

Woman Freedom Rider Claims Rape By Negro DALLAS, Tex. (UPD A 22-year-old London, England, woman who said she had been a freedom rider for the Congress of Racial Equality, told police Friday she was raped by a 260-pound Negro posing as a sympathizer for the organization. Detectives L. D. Montgomery and Harvard Johnson said a phy sician examined her and reported she had been raped, and apparent ly had had no relations prior to the assault. Police arrested the Negro and were holding him on investigation of forcible rape. They said he had admitted to "almost all" of the girl's story. The green-eyed, brunette said she joined the CORE movement in New Orleans during the sum mer and was jailed at Jackson, Miss., for one month as a free dom rider. She said she was re leased after CORE posted her $500 bond three weeks ago. The woman said she came to Dallas looking for a job. She said the NAACP fixed her up with a hotel room. She said she met the Negro at a cafe near the hotel and that he identified himself as a "friend of the organization (CORE). He told her he owned the hotel and also Atom Tests Protested MOJI, Japan (UPD American pacifist Earle Reynolds set out in his 30-ton yacht today for the So viet port of Nakhodka to protest Russia's resumption of nuclear testing.

The yacht, Phoenix, pulled into port here last Tuesday after sail ing from Hiroshima on Sunday. Reynolds told newsmen before his departure today that he was opposed to nuclear testing by any country. He said he hoped to dis cuss nuclear testing with the Rus sian people.

Ssnd Your Cltanin with Your Laundry Ph, 4-5111 or 2-2531 CASCADE LAUNDRY and DRY CLEANERS Water Pollution Lab Planned For Orenon PORTLAND (AP) - Secretary of Health Education and Welfare Abraham Ribicoff said today that the federal government is plan ning a $2 5 million water pollu tion control field laboratory at Corvallis. It will be the first of a number of research laboratories author ized by congress at the last ses sion. The laboratory, which will be staffed by some 150 engineers, scientists and technicians, is an other step, Ribicoff said, "in Pres ident Kennedy's program to pro tect tne nation s water sources." The purpose of the laboratory Bad Landing Crash Cause NDOLA, Northern . Rhodesia API Experts probing the air crash that killed U.N. Secretary ueneral Dag Hammarskiold ex pressed belief today his plane was making an approach.to land when it smashed into the Rhodesian bush Sept. 18. This conclusion, expressed after more than a week s inquiry. would indicate the crash was an accident, not a result of sabotage. Commission sources said it has been established bv now that the undercarriage of the DC6 carry ing Hammarskjold and 15 others was down and the pilot was pre paring to land. The plane came to an altitude of 40 to 50 feet, cut a swath through treetops six miles from here, then smashed into the ground. The inquiry commission says it believes all four engines were running at the same pitch, indicating the pilot was making his run in to land. The commission also says it has established that the craft carrying Hammarskjold to a peace meeting with Katanga's President Moise Tshombe carried a large amount of arms and am munition, presumably as a pre caution in case of landing in hos tile territory. When the plane crashed some of this ammunition exploded. Bullets were found in some of the bodies aboard the stricken craft. 3130 will be to develop means of pre venting and controlling polution. Ribicoff said that the laboratory will work closely w ith the region's universities and with state and federal government agencies and with the region's industries. Ribicoff said that Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., had convinced him that the laboratory should be lo cated in Oregon. Governor Mark Hatfield said that much credit is due to the effective teamwork between members of our congressional del egation and state agencies. pecially the State System of High er Education, the State Sanitary Authority and the Department of Planning and Development, who joined forces for the support of authorizing legislation and in presenting Oregon's qualifications as a location for the laboratory. Chou Willing To Coexist TOKYO (UPD Chinese Com munist leader Chou En-lai said today his regime was willing to coexist peacefully with the United States providing the U.S. drops its opposition to a United Nations seat for Pciping. Chou said his Communist re gime and the millions it rules 'wish to live together in peace with the peoples of all countries, including the United States of America." Chou made the statement in an unusually brief speech which he delivered at a Peiping reception for visiting dignitaries on the eve of Red China's 12th anniversary. His speech was carried by the Communist New China ' News Agency in a report monitored here. Although Chou tempered his statements on' coexistence with the United Slates by laying down certain "conditions," they wore an apparent reversal of Red China's often repeated stand that war and only war can settle the issues be tween East and West.

Private Back Wife To Get DETROIT (AP)-Pvt. Jon Floe- ter, 25, serving in the Army in Korea, is back on Uncle Sam's payroll. And his wife, 24, who lives in East Detroit, can keep a $91.30 allotment and will get $182.60 shortly due as back allotments. Col. Clovis B. Noriis, chief of the Army Finance Center's Col lection Division in Indianapolis, put it this way: "We goofed." Norris explained, "We have 30,- 000 cases here and these things happen." Norris, answering a query from the Detroit News, said that after Floetcr joined the Army some question came up about whether his enlistment was valid. Ponding an investigation, his pay and $91.30 monthly allotment checks were held up. Floetcr was at Ft. Leonard Wood, Mo., at the time. Then the Army put him back on full nav and sent him tn Korea. The only trouble, said Norris, was that nobody in the Army notified the finance center, which does the paying. So the center wrote Mrs. Floetcr and demanded return of $91.30 it A B00K A WEEK' complete your set that Falls, Ore.
