If it were a matter of spend ing for our survival, 1 don't think any of us would criticize," he said, "but the fact is that over 60 per cent of the increase has been for non-defense spending, merely to increase the welfare effort with little done to reduce unemploy ment." Griffin labelled the officials of the Kennedy administration as 'retread rn.w-dealers," and pointed out that such officials as Adiai Stevenson, Avenll Harrl man, Oreville f reeman, oeorge Docking and G. Mennen Williams, were defeated politicians, reject ed by the people, yet prominent in the Kenndy administration. Co-sponsor of the Landrum Griffin labor bill, Representative Griffin listed opposition by then Senator Kennedy to the first ar ticle of the bill, known as the bill of rights for the working man. He itemized these points as guar. anteeing union members 1 r e e speech, right to become a can didate and be elected to union offices, right to have a voice in dues and assessments, to protec tion against arbitrary union offi cial sanctions, and guaranteeing a legal right to sue the union if he suffers at its nands. If Senator Kennedy had had his way," Griffin said, "seventy per cent of the unions would have been exempt from these provi sions. He applauded the right of work ing people to organize into unions, adding that his brother was presi dent of a local union, but added that the rights of the union mem ber must be protected. Rep. John Anderson agreed with General Van Fleet's recent con demnation of Adlai Stevenson for his part in the Cuban fiasco, and added that he felt Kennedy was trying to do right, but would be better if he "quit listening to the council of despair that surrounds him. Admitting that foreign problems were present when Kennedy was installed, Anderson stated, Ken nedy said things would get worse before belter, and they have got ten worse, and unless he begins to listen to the American people it will grow worse." He scored Senator Fulbright for recent statements that America could not expect "total victory, and pointed out that the doctrine of co-existence left Khrushchev free to continue his "salami-slic ing technique." "We need something more posi tive," Anderson said, pleading that the United Stales take advan tage of this opportunity to mar shal world opinion against the So viet Union." He recommended that the nations of the world be enjoined to quarantine Russia. "In lieu of a foreign policy, he add ed, "we have had weakness and vacillation." He listed the administration's foreign policy as based on "trial Balloons," and suggested that If Red China is admitted to the U.N. we seriously consider withdraw. ing from the organization In later questioning, the panel agreed that if Red China is ad mitted, there will be a positive move in Congress to cut off funds for the organization. Rep. Charles Goodell, who just recently returned from a tour of educational facilities in Russia, said he found Russians schools operating on double shifts, and in many cases, in buildings that would be condemned over here. "Let's not underrate them, how. ever," he said, pointing out that llicy place great emphasis on mathematics and science. He sounded a warning, however, on the trend la federal aid to education as a means of securing centralized controls of our educa tional system. "The worst thing we could do Is to try to copy the Russian educational system." he added He related that in one Russian secondary school lie visited, which had an enrollment of 7ii0 students.

He listed at "least one-half" of those supporting federal aid to education do so because they want to get cqntrol of the schools. This is the only way they can get their ideas adopted," he added. Goodell turned his sights on the domestic scene, pointing out that there were 6.8 million unemployed when Kennedy took office, and that there are 6.8 million unem ployed now, despite the additional big government spending. "The present administration has added 92.000 persons to the federal pay roll in 10 short months," he said, adding that this meant 373 new federal employes every day. "Contrast this," he advised, with the fact that under the Eisenhower administration's eight years, the federal payroll was cut 10 per cent. The administration says one thing during campaigning, then does differently when in office," he concluded 'Freedom can die in many ways, ne told we audience, add ing, "it can die on the battlefield in blood and heroics, it can die from ignorance, selfishness and cowardice, but the most ignomin-j Halloween Pranksters Spray Cars With Cream Halloween, the traditional holi day of not-so-innocent pranks and trickery, isn t like it used to be in "the good old days" but there were still a few evidences of van dalism when the. Klamath area awoke Wednesday morning. Klamath Falls police reported that Halloween pranksters had shown little originality. Cars full of youths drove up and down Main Street spraying push-button shav ing cream on cars and pedestri ans. Other missiles such as wa ter bag and eggs also flew through the air. Downtown streets were littered with a variety of fruits and vege tables. In residential areas, trees festooned with toilet paper were not an uncommon sight. More de structive vandals threw rocks through windows, shot windows with BB guns and marked on win dows and walls with soap, wax and color crayons. John Malhews, city flic mar shal, said no fire hydrants were turned on, a familiar prank in bygone days. Mathews did add, however, that his car was decorat- ed with shaving cream. Menthol shaving cream bleaches auto paint. State police said they had a "relatively quiet" night. There was a report that some vandals threw rocks through the windows of the Keno Store. And some youths decided to celebrate in Merrill by having a rotten egg fight. Halloween pranksters struck Keno Man Faces Murder Charge In Dahl Stabbing DORRIS Elmer J. Beckef, 32 year-old Keno man, was held to face a first degree murder charge Tuesday afternoon following a pre liminary hearing before L e s Chase, judge of the Dorris Judi cial District. Judge Chase ruled the evidence sufficient to hold Becker on the charge. Becker will be lodged with out bail in the Siskiyou County Jail in Yreka to face trial at a later date. Becker is accused of the knife murder of Roger Dahl, 21-year-old Dorris man, in the early morning hours of Oct. 15 in front of the Star Inn in Dorris.

All three panelists agreed, in later press conference, that Amer ica should resume atomic test ing m the atmosphere. Represen tative Goodell said, "We should have resumed tests long ago." and added, "we must test to the de gree necessary to protect our se curity. We could test 10 years and never pollute the air as much as Russia has tiurng her recent series oi lesis. All were unanimous in terming the Russian tests as "blackmail and "intimidation." All three also strongly opposed the recent move in the U.N. where by the administration sanctioned the admission of Outer Mongolia Representative Goodell termed it, "the first step in a move to ad mit Red China to the U.N." Ben Adair, Klamath County Re, publican Central Committee, em coed the program. Reprentatives George Flitcraft and Carrol Howe shared the speakers platform as did George Davis, Oregon Repub lican Committee chairman.

Mrs. Robert Novy, wife of As sistant. Bly Ranger Bob Novy was returning to her home at the ranger station near Bly late Tues day evening. At a cattle-guard en trance to the station, heavy tim bers had been placed across the gateway, barring entrance by car, In attempting to remove the timbers, Mrs. Novy fell through the guard, spraining her knee and incurring minor abrasions. Deputy Sheriff Jack Hunton of Bly was called to remove the tim-l bers and set out on patrol of the area around the ranger sta tion. Shortly after Hunton left the- scene, to investigate more reports of "timbering" this time across busy Highway 66, the lumber was replaced at the cattle guard.

Investigation by the Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office had dis. closed that a group of about nine young men had been arguing and lighting from shortly after mid night until about 2:30 or 3 a.m. on the 15th. The group included Becker, the Dahl brothers, Smith and Oley. At the time of the stabbing, however, witnesses said two other men were fighting. The Dahl brothers were standing out side the inn while Becker was sitting in a pickup truck. Smith testified that he had seen Becker with a knife earlier and had asked him to put it away. None of the witnesses called Tuesday actually saw the stab bing, according to Judge Chase. incy realized Roger Dahl was wounded after he slumped to the ground. The alleged murder weapon, hunting knife with a seven-inch curved blade, was admitted into evidence. Smith and Otcy said they had taken it away from Becker and turned it over to Clar ence Houston, acting Dorris .po lice chief. Becker and Albert W.
