Personal Gain Denied in Rail Merger Talks SAN FRANCISCO (UPD West ern Pacific President Frederic B. Whitman denied today that he supports Santa Fe in the Western Pacific case because he stands to make a personal profit from a stock option plan. Southern Pacific Vice President George Buland suggested during cross examination of Whitman that the plan made Santa Fe s proposal especially attractive to! Western Pacific officials. "Yes, hut that wasn't my mo tivation." Whitman said. Outside the Interstate Commerce Commission hearings Whitman raid about 50 Western Pacific of ficials have options on a total of 90.000 Western Pacific shares. Their value may be increased hy $1.7 million because of the Santa Fe offer, he admitted. "But look at what all the other Western Pacific stockholders stand to make," he said. He said even Southern Pacific, Don't Miss It! Hafter's CARPET SALE 100 Wool, 100 Nylon Carpet $99 iq. yd. FREE Pad and Installation 25 Rolls to Choose From Hafter's FURNITURE 833 Klamoth Avt. TU 4-4878 which now owns 10 per cent of Western Pacific stock, would much more than pay its cost of fighting the case if Southern Pa cific loses because of Santa Fe's stock olfer. Santa Fe has proposed an ex change of I4 shares of Santa Fe for each share of Western Pacific. Southern Pacific has ottered a share-for-share exchange in its ri val bid for Western Pacific con trol. Buland said Western Pacific of ficials have a stock option plan under which they may buy lim ited stock at between (16.18 and $22.95. Since the outbreak of the control battle, Western Pacific stock has risen in value so that if the ICC approves Santa Fe's offer the value of Western Pacific stock would be about $35. Whitman said his decision was made because if Southern Pacific wins, "it's my view there wouldn't be any Western Pacific," He said it would be foolish for Southern Pacific to have "one arm of Southern Pacific competing against the other." Southern Pa cific's lines parallel those of West em Pacific. Whitman favors Santa Fe in the current battle between Santa Fe and Southern Pacific for control of the smaller line. His stand was backed by 17 shippers who went to the wiuiess stand Wednesday as Western Pacific witnesses. The shippers contended that an end-to-end affiliation of WP and Santa Fe would stimulate rail competition, but that a monopoly would result it Southern Pacific was successful in controlling the side-by-side WP facilities. Clay McGowan of Victor Indus tries, Chico, Calif., said his firm has greatly improved its prod ucts in recent years because of competition, which he said "makes the wheels go around.' Poultry shipper Enouch Christ offersen of Turlock, Calif., claimed that any business operates at less cost when facing a rival. He said competition gives a businessman "something to shoot at."

Friday, November 3, 1961 PAGE 5-B Peace Marchers Prof est Against Atom Warfare By United Press International The -nation's women, angered and frightened by the growing threat of nuclear warfare, staged gigantic protest demonstration! throughout the U.S. Wednesday. The protest, in the form of a strike for peace, was unorga nized. But it was awesome in its penetration into virtually every section of the country and every major city. tut 56(4 if ear COLUMBIAN OPTICAL CO. 730 Main TU 4-7121 Drs. Omor J. Nole and Robert Petcrt Peace Walk Scheduled In Portland PORTLAND (AP) A pacifist organization is sponsoring a peace march in Portland Saturday and backers predict a turnout of at least 1.500 to 2,000 persons. Chairman Howard Willits said the number could go much higher because of the international ten-1 sion resulting from the Russian nuclear tests, the Berlin crisis and the recent death of United Na tions Secretary-General Dag Ham marskjold. One group of women from Sa lem today announced plans to caravan to Portland Saturday morning to ioin in the peace walk The Peace Walk is sponsored By the Fellowship of Reconciliation. This is a pacifist group which was organized in England in 1914 ana became active itn - the United States one year later. Also supf irting the march are a number ov groups including the Young Democratic Clubs of Ore gon, the Portland Jane Jefferson Club and the American Friends Service committee. One group of 'The United Na tions Walk for Peace" demon strators will begin their march in the civil defense center at Kelly Butte in Portland and walk to the north Park blocks at NW Park Avenue and Burnside. The main body of marchers will move down S. W. Broadway to Hall Street and then to the south Park blocks. Some 15,000 circulars have been sent out publicizing the demon stration. Karlin M. Capper-Johnson, pres ident of the Oregon United Na tions Association, declined to speak at the end of the peace walk. He said he cannot support some of the goals stated in the circulars sent out. Speaking in his place will be Edward Snider, Washington, D.C., legislative secretary of the Friends Committee on National Legislation, a Quaker group. The "strikers for peace" includ ed teen aged college students, young housewives and elderly ma trons. They paraded in wind and rain, sunshine and wearying heal and in near freezing tempera tures. Some pushed baby carriages or carried infants in their arms. Al most all carried signs denouncing continuation of nuclear testing and the feverish East-West arms race. The demonstrations were car ried out before the White House and the Soviet Embassy in Wash ington, the United Nations head-: quarters and Russian U.N. mis sion in New York City and cen ters of government across the nation. They urged Mrs. John F. Ken nedy and Mrs. Nikita Khrushchev, wives of the leaders of the world's two most powerful nations, to help bring a halt to the bomb tests in the interest of survival of the human race. One of the largest demonstra tions was in Chicago where an es timated 1,000 women gathered to appeal for a halt to nuclear test ing. More thar. 600 women jammed into two meetings in the suburban Winnetka community house to hear Rabbi Edgar Siskin warn that mankind faces the greatest peril it has ever known from radiation fallout and nuclear bombs. They drafted telegrams to Pres ident Kennedy, the U.N. and( to other public officials. Other groups staged protests in other parts of Chicago and called on Mayor Rich ard Daley to "lead our city in showing America and the world the way toward peace." Many said they joined the pro test as a part of a "women's day for peace" movement suggested by Mrs. Dagmar Wilson, an illus trator of children's books who lives in Georgetown, Md. At Denver, about a hundred women jammed the offices of Gov. Steve McNichols and Sens. John A. Carroll and Gordon Allott and rebuked Allott when he said this country would have to continue nuclear testing because "we can not lag behind the Russians." The women shouted "No, No, No." WASHINGTON iUPP-A medi-1 cal scientist said today it is high ly likely that a major break through in treatment of cancer will be achieved within the com ing year. The prediction was made by Dr I. S. Itavdin of the University of Pennsylvania at a national can-! cer conference. He beads a clini cal studies panel appointed by the National Cancer Institute to eval uate new drugs for control of cancer. Itavdin said real progress has been made in cancer research in the past two years, and effective chemical agents already have been found for tieatment of spe cial types of cancer. "Matters have improved in the cancer fight, and we are begin ning to see tho light," Ravdin told the conference, attended by more than 1,000 physicians and medical researchers from all parts of the nation. Confident of Control He said it is now certain that "cancer will come under control, just as diabetes did." "The answer could come next month, next year or next week," he said. "It is important that we keep cancer patients alive as long as possible, because we never know when the answer will come, and we are likely to have improve ments in therapy before we knowl the whole nature of the disease." Ravdin said research to date strongly suggests that "most hu man cancers are probably due to viruses and the answer in treat ment will probably be through a variety of chemical agents." Definite proof that certain com mon types of cancer are "viral in origin" may be obtained "be fore another vear is passed," he said. At the same time we may have information on the control of such lesions by chemical agents! which have been under careful scrutiny." Surgery Still Brit He said chemical therapy at present is an adjunct rather than substitute for early surgery "The best way to handle cancer that we know of, still is to re move the malignancy while it is local, and before it has grown or spread." But he said clinical tests during the last two years have demon strated that chemical agents can produce dramatic results with some types of cancer. Ravdin said most researchers now are convinced that cancer isler than a single drug, will be a family of diseases, and that a necessary to cope with all of the variety of chemical agents, rath-iviruses that may induce cancers.

'ITS EASY TO CHARGE IT AT NEWBERRY'S" 825 MAIN State Park Use To Be Tripled SALEM (AP)-The demand for day use of state parks will more than double and overnight use will more than triple by 197S. the state parks superintendent, Mark Astrup, said today. Astrup spoke to the 2nd annual county park conference in Salem. He discussed a recreation survey made by the parks division. Many slate parks, he said, al ready have been intensively de veloped and remaining develop ment space is largely limited to day use opportunities. 'The capacity of existing parks to provide for day use can be ex panded.' he said. 'The major problem is the lack of space to handle overnight camping pres sures.' Astrup said overnight camping and boating facilities are areas of critical need for the future and the slate and counties should give attention to getting sites now while land is available.
